Zhong Ran frowned and moved closer to take a look. Sure enough, there were people cursing Ye Ling and had hung his picture on the grave.
“My brother… you say, what is he doing? This was the first time he had made a grand appearance. He should be on the hot topic list and being widely searched by a group of pink ladies. How did something like this happen?” Ye Yifan had a change in thought. “It must be Shen Lin who offended my brother. It was her mistake.”
“…” Zhong Ran was shocked by his statement.
Know what is called no brain protection?
This is it!
The emcee had been so stunned. “Master Ye, look… ”
“According to scientific evidence, the probability of a person fainting suddenly from shock is one in ten thousand. For adults without any illness, the heart is able to withstand shock up to more than 10 levels of disability. Most of those who suffer from shock and subsequently faint are the elderly with illnesses. Miss Shen is young, healthy, and has participated in more than 10 international competitions. She should be strong mentally and able to accept compliments and withstand questions, yet she has fainted so easily.”
Ye Ling let out a cold hum. “Must be pretending in order to avoid the competition. This trick is used so well! If I am not a true designer, how can I avoid the competition? Very simple, sudden onset of an illness. Let me tell you, unless you are a true designer, you will never be able to escape from this questionability.”
His words were spread within the whole venue through the speakers. Shen Lin had to bite her lips tightly so that she would not tremble. This man was too scary. She had already pretended to faint, but he still would not let her off.
The whole place was in an uproar. It was not only the live-stream, but the scene was also filled with whisperings of people.
“Ye Ling just wants to force others to a dead end.”
“What kind of revenge, what kind of hatred? This is so ruthless. However, what he has said is very reasonable. Shen Lin has also fainted too easily.”
“Never faint earlier or later, but have to faint just at this moment so she does not need to compete. Can it be true that what has been said is exactly her worry?”
“Oh gosh, don’t tell me it is true. She is keeping up appearances. She doesn’t need to compete since she has fainted.”
“Madam Shen has cried so heartbreakingly. Doesn’t look like it is done on pretense.”
“Ye Ling is really heartless.”
The ambulance came immediately, and Shen Lin was sent to the hospital. To date, she was the first person who had a mishap. It would imply that she forfeited the competition. However, the competition had to go on. The venue was mostly filled with professionals from the jewelry industry and lovers of jewelry. In comparison to the internet which was filled with one-sided rantings against Ye Ling, the audience within the venue, however, was not so disapproving of Ye Ling’s actions.
Firstly, Shen Lin’s work had some good and bad points, and that was a publicly known truth. Some people had also secretly discussed in private that some of the works really did not seem to come from the same person. Secondly, the audience had heard of Ye Ling being a ruler with an iron fist. He would never have chosen a public place to question a talented designer for plagiarism without any reason. Thirdly, Ye Ling was not like Ye Yifan, who was from the second generation. The Ye family’s elder Master Ye had previously integrated the Ye family, and it was as if he were pulling out the weeds. He frightened the Ye family and had them under control until they were afraid to even say a word now.
Shen Lin was merely a passerby to Ye Ling, and he would not take a further look at her just as she walked past. If not for special reasons, Ye Ling would never have humiliated her this way, and even more so, wasting his time.
Hence, within the venue, except for Shen Lin’s fans and people from Dream Star, the rest of the people’s moods were not exceptionally agitated.
The concept competition had officially started. Shen Lin forfeited the competition.
The audience were all looking at Ye Ling, who was in the panel of judges. He narrowed his eyes slightly. That pair of sharp and cold eyes covered the audience’s desire to pry. The director specially gave a close-up shot, and his delicate features appeared perfect under the camera’s close-up shot. He was so handsome that it made others feel suffocated. He was like an evildoer who turned things upside down for all beings, but there was no feeling of any demon on him. He was steady, cold, and sharp and had the decisiveness of someone with power.
