Chapter 446: My Biggest Mistake Was Being Too Merciful
Translator: Henyee TranslationsEditor: Henyee Translations
Yao Mengqing looked aggrieved. Tears slowly flowed down her face.
Lin Jie felt indignant. “Mengqing didn’t plagiarize your work. She was just using your work as a reference. Can’t she do that? She has the international brand, Sunshine, under her name. She’s also very powerful!”
“Heh!” Gu Zheng sneered, his eyes deep.
The man’s tall figure made him look like a god. His handsome face was calm and so were his eyes.
Gu Zheng sat in front of the stage, and everyone quickly stood up to give up their seats. No one dared to sit in the same row as President Gu. Even if he wasn’t angry, no one could withstand the cold air around him.
Everyone held their breaths. This powerful pressure was suffocating.
Lin Jie braced himself. “Qiao Xi is indeed very powerful, but Mengqing is also capable. She—”
“But…”
Gu Zheng interrupted him coldly, scaring Lin Jie so much that he did not dare to continue.
“Sunshine will disappear from now on.”
Boom!!!
Yao Mengqing’s pupils constricted as her voice trembled. “Ah Zheng… Ah Zheng, what do you mean? What are you doing?”
Fear was written all over her face as she screamed crazily, “Ah Zheng! You want to kill me for this woman?! Sunshine is my everything! Don’t you know that the Yao family is now… The entire Yao family is relying on Sunshine! If Sunshine is really gone, then we… Ah Zheng, we grew up together. You can’t
do this to me!”
Words of pleading and questioning gushed out from her mouth. Then, Yao Mengging suddenly tumed around. “Qiao Xi! I’ll absolutely not let you off!”
“Not let me off?” Qiao Xi replied indifferently, “Do you know what my biggest mistake was?”
She paused for a moment before continuing, “My biggest mistake was that I was too benevolent and allowed you to behave atrociously in front of me time and time again. Between us, who exactly is the one not letting the other off? Think about everything you’ve done in the past. At this point, you’re only
reaping what you sow!
“Moreover, do you really think that Gu Zheng is making a move on you because of me?” Qiao Xi smiled, and her eyes were filled with ridicule as if she was looking at a pile of trash.
“Yao Mengqing, you’re also in the business field. You should understand that businessmen don’t get up early unless there’s profit to be made. President Gu is doing this because you’ve hurt the interests of Gu Corporation.
“Your previous works have already been mass-produced and the first batch has been sold. I think you’ve already made a small profit and invested a lot of money into production.
“But you forgot that you plagiarized my work, and my work, ‘Returning Dream’, has already been sold to Gu Corporation. What you’re doing is affecting the interests of Gu Corporation. Not only did you plagiarize my work, but you’re also profiting off it illegally. How do you intend to compensate us?”
Yao Mengqing’s face turned pale instantly!
“I think you’ll soon be receiving a lawyer’s letter from Gu Corporation, Miss Yao.”
Everyone instantly reacted, and Lin Jie’s expression was also very ugly.
If it were just a case of plagiarism and Yao Mengging didn’t profit from it, she only needed to apologize to Yun Chu in front of everyone and suffer moral condemnation. At most, she would have to pay a sum of money, but it wouldn’t be too much. It wouldn’t hurt Yao Mengging at all.
However, if the matter involved Gu Corporation, the nature of the matter would be different. President Gu had always been someone who would not suffer losses. How could he tolerate Yao Mengqing invading his interests?
Sunshine had no chance of winning against Gu Corporation!
Yao Mengqing did not care about her image anymore and rushed to Gu Zheng. Just as she was about to touch his hand, she was flung away by a strong force. Yao Mengqing lost her balance and fell backward. Luckily, Lin Jie rushed over and hugged her.
“Ah Zheng… No, no!”
Hearing her pleas, Gu Zheng stood up abruptly, his eyes filled with impatience.
Just then, Song Shijing handed Gu Zheng a handkerchief and Gu Zheng took it. He wiped his hands in front of everyone as if they were stained with dirt.
He then threw the handkerchief into the rubbish bin.
They had long heard that President Gu did not like women and was cold and heartless. Seeing him today, it was true.
Yao Mengqing’s eyes were filled with humiliation. Then, she fainted.
Qiao Xi rolled her eyes. Yao Mengqing fainted again? But it seemed like it was real this time. This woman’s mental endurance was truly too poor. She fainted whenever she encountered something.
