He Xia's words were emotional and decisive.
The heart of a parent, where would parents not think of their children?
But for a child who was always causing trouble and lacked sense, parents would also be exhausted, the last straw that broke the camel's back. He Xia only hoped it wouldn't happen.
Nan Shiqing's eyes flickered. Knowing how much trouble she had caused, she immediately responded to express her stance.
— Nan Shiqing: [Don't worry, Mom, I won't this time, I promise!]
Without waiting for her mother's reply, she began to pay attention to Weibo again.
Although there were supporters at first, later on, they were all scolding her. Someone even posted her competition photo and directly photoshopped it into a black and white memorial portrait.
Netizens below sent her candle emojis with accompanying text:
— xx: [Plagiarism dog, hurry up and die!]
— xx: [Nan Shiqing, you dog, you're not even fit to carry Mu Yinyin's shoes. If I were you, I'd find a eggplant tree and hang myself!]
— xx: [Competing with Fanxing in plagiarism, then apologized live and begged for forgiveness. Now, in the design competition, you're still playing dirty tricks. Disgusting, aren't you? Nan Shiqing, are you going to plagiarize until you're old and dead?]
— xx: [Mourning the plagiarism dog for three minutes!!]
…
These were a few pinned comments. The netizens below were posting candle emojis. If He Xia hadn't warned her in advance, Nan Shiqing would have exploded with anger.
But now, Nan Shiqing simply replied lightly:
— Nan Shiqing: [Why are you treating me like this? I haven't done anything wrong. Is it just because my work isn't as outstanding as my sister's design draft this time?]
— xx: [Don't even mention ghostwriting, get lost, you dead bitch!]
…
The netizens were like mad dogs, attacking Nan Shiqing relentlessly.
Nan Shiqing didn't pay attention anymore. In fact, she was quite satisfied. The more they cursed, the better.
Meanwhile, over at Fu Siye's end.
Because he had seen the trending comments not long ago, and now the netizens were enthusiastically photoshopping Nan Shiqing's memorial portrait and then vehemently criticizing her, these were pushed to him again in real-time.
Fu Siye initially didn't plan to do anything, but he noticed Nan Shiqing's black and white memorial portrait.
Fu Siye's expression instantly turned extremely cold!
If these netizens could photoshop memorial portraits, would they next be rushing to Nan Shiqing's side to personally hand her a knife?
Realizing this, Fu Siye remembered the time Nan Shiqing called him, saying her doorstep was blocked.
Fu Siye didn't hesitate any longer and immediately dialed Mu Teng's number.
"Mr. Fu?"
"Deal with those matters on Weibo concerning Nan Shiqing."
He couldn't let these things escalate and couldn't let Nan Shiqing be affected.
Mu Teng was a bit surprised. The plagiarism issue had already blown up to this extent, and Mr. Fu was still thinking of protecting Nan Shiqing?
However, the next moment, he realized that no matter what, Nan Shiqing was Mr. Fu's benefactor. He immediately replied, "Okay, I'll handle it right away."
Fu Siye didn't say anything more and hung up the phone.
He slowly leaned back in his chair, not starting work immediately. His handsome face was tinged with a deep coldness.
What role was Mu Yinyin playing in all of this?
And her designs, she…
Fu Siye's gaze grew colder. How many more things was she hiding from him!
As for Mu Teng…
He had already started handling it, but Nan Shiqing was receiving a lot of criticism on Weibo.
To resolve this, it was necessary to use facts to silence the netizens.
After some thought, Mu Teng had to find Nan Shiqing's past exhibition photos and scenes of her personally drawing and designing.
He also found records of Nan Shiqing's past awards. After obtaining this information, Mu Teng had someone push it in front of the netizens. He originally wanted to do some public relations, but then he realized that at this critical juncture, if Fu Siye were to be brought out, he would inevitably be caught in the crossfire of the angry netizens.
Therefore, Mu Teng chose to act anonymously and found several other people to support Nan Shiqing:
— xx: [If Nan Shiqing were truly guilty of plagiarism and ghostwriting, she wouldn't have these awards, nor would she be so calm during the competition.]
— xx: [Don't just splash dirty water on others. If someone has low psychological resilience, wouldn't they be forced to death by you?]
— xx: [Don't be so malicious towards a young girl. Didn't Ju Xing also issue a statement? Let's wait for the next competition results!]
…
The disputes online ended due to Mu Teng's actions. Most importantly, neither Nan Shiqing nor Mu Yinyin, the main parties involved, stepped in to argue, making the netizens' arguments meaningless.
The most important reason was that Fanxing had begun its second phase.
In the second phase, the judges' topic was 'Time'.
Whoever received the most votes for their design or draft would win.
However, the second phase had an extra hour compared to the first phase. Due to the incident involving Nan Shiqing and Mu Yinyin,
Now, each participant had a small camera in front of them.
However, the cameras captured the participants' faces and desktops from all angles, making cheating impossible. There was even a new rule.
After completing their drafts, participants had to upload them to a computer. The computer file and the drafted artwork had to be consistent, completely eliminating the possibility of substitution.
These were the rules for the second phase.
However, although the topic and rules for the second phase were announced, the judges did not say "start" when the participants arrived at the venue.
This made the participants very puzzled. Just as they were about to ask, a judge slowly walked onto the stage. Holding a microphone, he spoke solemnly to everyone, "The topic has been given to you. You can discuss how you want to design and conceive. We will start calculating time after half an hour."
Upon hearing this, the participants were even more surprised.
Some of them directly raised their doubts, "If we all discuss together, and our ideas become the same, how will the drawn drafts be judged for victory?"
To their doubts, the judge smiled faintly, "This is where your brushwork will be tested. At the same time, we also need to verify one point: whether the drawings of two people with the same idea can be consistent."
It was to verify if there was plagiarism.
After all, the most important reason why Ju Xing decided to keep Mu Yinyin and Nan Shiqing:
It was that Mu Yinyin and Nan Shiqing were sisters.
It was impossible for them to be enemies from the start and be in direct opposition.
As long as this point was proven, the rumors would naturally be dispelled.
However, although the judges gave them half an hour to discuss, no one discussed. The contestants who came here all wanted to win the championship and cooperate with Ju Xing. How could they give their most precious ideas to others?
