Li Feng received the invitation to the Lingdong Jewelry launch and took an early flight to get there. However, he didn’t anticipate the severe traffic congestion in the capital, causing him to be nearly an hour late.
Upon his arrival, he was greeted by an unexpected scene.
Li Feng’s reputation extended beyond A City; he was well-known in the capital. Seeing him, everyone made way.
Liu Jie quickly approached him. “Mr. Li, if you had told me you were coming, I would have picked you up.”
“Don’t bother. You’d just get lost yourself,” Li Feng retorted sharply. He was irate at Liu Jie’s behavior towards Yu Hua’s granddaughter.
Having known Li Feng for years, Liu Jie noticed his anger but didn’t understand its cause.
Xu Ting, however, mistook Li Feng’s irritation for a shared indignation towards Song Fan for allegedly copying her friend’s designs.
“Mr. Li, you can see these are Mr. Hua’s designs, right?” Xu Ting stepped forward eagerly. “Some people are just so shameless. Even if they plagiarize, they shouldn’t choose Mr. Hua’s designs.”
Many attendees were live-streaming the event. The presence of so many prominent figures and the scandal of plagiarism had everyone buzzing with excitement.
Someone held their phone up to Li Feng. “Mr. Li, we have over 300,000 viewers in our live stream. Could you tell us if these are indeed Mr. Hua’s designs?”
Initially intending to push the phone away, Li Feng reconsidered and leaned into the camera. “Yes, these are Mr. Hua’s designs, and the sketches are his work. Any problem with that?”
“No problem at all!” The live streamer’s hand trembled. “So, do you think Song Fan plagiarized Mr. Hua’s designs?”
“Plagiarized?” Li Feng’s face moved closer to the camera. “Which eye of yours saw her plagiarize? Are those eyes under your eyebrows just for show?”
Before the streamer could respond, Li Feng angrily pointed at Liu Jie. “And you! Mr. Hua designed your wife’s necklace. Isn’t that enough for you? Now you’re here accusing Song Fan of theft?”
“I didn’t!” Liu Jie defended himself. “I just don’t want Mr. Hua’s work to be copied. I even said I was willing to buy it.”
Xu Ting quickly added, “My grandfather was Mr. Hua’s friend, and he’s just standing up for a friend. Song Fan is a thief and a plagiarist! Lingdong Jewelry is not worth buying!”
Liu Jie pulled her back, sensing something was off.
Meng Xia thought Li Na had asked her grandfather to help. Seeing Xu Wen’s signal, Meng Xia stepped forward. They couldn’t let Song Fan get away with this.
“Mr. Li, we’re all fans of Mr. Hua and don’t want his legacy tarnished,” Meng Xia said hesitantly. “Although I’m the deputy manager, I showed a ring designed by Mr. Hua that day, which Song Fan took. The ring she designed looks exactly like the one I had…”
Her words were cut short, but the implication was clear: Song Fan had publicly stolen Mr. Hua’s work.
“You’re full of crap!” Li Feng didn’t hold back, unleashing a string of profanity.
“Fans of Mr. Hua? Liu Jie, you’ve met him. Didn’t you realize he’s Yu Hua?” Li Feng rolled his eyes dramatically. Those around him feared he might have a heart attack, while Li Na knew it signified his extreme contempt.
“Yu Hua! Yu Hua is Song Fan’s grandfather! His granddaughter continuing his legacy by showcasing his designs—what’s wrong with that?”
His words left the room in stunned silence before a flurry of discussions erupted.
“Yu Hua? The former chairman of Yu Corporation? He’s Mr. Hua?”
“Mr. Li must be right. Yu Hua had only one daughter, who is indeed Song Fan’s mother.”
“That makes sense. No wonder Miss Song is so talented in design; it runs in the family.”
Li Feng pointed to the ring on Song Fan’s hand. “This ring was personally designed by Yu Hua for his daughter. He originally planned a whole set of pearl jewelry but fell too ill to complete it. Now his granddaughter has brought these designs to life. What are you all babbling about?”
The revelation shifted the atmosphere dramatically. Instead of skepticism, the attendees now viewed Song Fan with newfound respect and admiration.
