“Tonly said that the brooch is mine. I never said that I destroyed the materials. There’s no correlation between the two,” Qiao Xi replied indifferently.

Chen Hao snorted coldly. “Excuses!”

Qiao Xi smiled indifferently. “Mr. Chen, aren’t you just quibbling? You said you saw me destroy the materials with your own eyes, but no one else saw it. Your one-sided story isn’t trustworthy. After all, you’re filled with hostility toward me!”

“Why… Why am I untrustworthy? You’re jealous of Mengqing. You’re afraid of losing to her, so you destroyed her materials. Isn’t this all true? I saw it with my own eyes. I have no reason to wrong you!”

Chen Hao spoke forcefully and righteously. “It’s the first time we’re meeting, so why would I target you for no reason? Could it be that I’ll be suspected even though I’m telling the truth? I just don’t want everyone to be kept in the dark.”

Seeing this, Yao Mengqing tried to persuade her earnestly. “Xi Xi, don’t make a fuss. Actually, it’s fine even if you admit it. You’re a newbie. No one will blame you. This matter won’t have a bad impact on the other designers as well. They won’t say anything. When the time comes, tell everyone that you

withdrew from the compet.i.tion due to health reasons. This will protect your reputation as much as possible.”

Then, she bowed with a gentle expression. “Everyone, although Xi Xi did something wrong, she’s still young and it’s her first time partic.i.p.ating in a compet.i.tion. I hope everyone can give her a chance. Don’t tell anyone about this, alright? I believe Xi Xi will try her best to correct her behavior. She won’t do

such things again. I beg everyone.”

Everyone hesitated for a moment. Since Yao Menggqing, the person directly involved, wasn’t making a fuss about it, what else could they say? Because of Yao Mengaing, they agreed to give Qiao Xia chance to change herself.

Yao Mengqing turned around and smiled gently. “Xi Xi, look. No one is pursuing this anymore. This way, your reputation will be preserved and the compet.i.tion can proceed normally. It’s better if you don’t”

“Yao Mengqing, why are you pretending to be understanding? Aren’t you indirectly forcing Qiao Xi to confess?”

Before Yao Mengqing could finish her sentence, she heard angry voices.

“She says that she wants to give Qiao Xi a chance to change her att.i.tude, but in reality, Qiao Xi is the scapegoat! If she agrees to it, how is she going to maintain her position in the design industry in the future?! What right do you have to stop her from explaining, Yao Mengging?!”

Second Young Master Gu was not going to let Yao Mengqing have her way. He immediately retorted, his eyes burning with fury. “Qiao Xi already said that the brooch is hers, but she didn’t destroy the materials!”

There was complete silence.

Yao Mengaing bit her lip pitifully. “Ah Yao…”

Chen Hao immediately stood out to defend the injustice. “Second Young Master Gu, Mengqing is already very considerate of Qiao Xi and isn’t pursuing her for the matter. She even advised everyone not to pursue the matter as well. Qiao Xi only has to apologize. Are you still not satisfied?”

Gu Yao roared, “T’ll say it again. Qiao Xi didn’t do it! Are you deaf?!”

Chen Hao said furiously, “It’s her! Qiao Xi, don’t take advantage of Second Young Master Gu’s protection and refuse to admit your mistake. Do you still have any shame?! Making a big deal out of this won’t be beneficial to you!”

The designers’ eyes were also filled with anger and hostility. “Qiao Xi, don’t you think you’ve gone too far? Miss Yao is already very forgiving. Can’t you just apologize?”

Gu Yao trembled in anger.

Qiao Xi patted Gu Yao’s shoulder. “It’s alright, don’t worry.”

She smiled confidently. “Mr. Chen, the person who destroyed the materials should be disqualified, right?”

Chen Hao was stunned.

‘The atmosphere became awkward.

Everyone was puzzled. From beginning to end, Qiao Xi wasn’t the slightest bit nervous. It could even be said that she was very indifferent. Moreover, she emphasized that the person who destroyed the materials should be disqualified from the compet.i.tion. What exactly did she mean?

Gu Yao’s expression softened a little when he saw Qiao Xi speak. He knew that Qiao Xi would not swallow her anger after being wronged. If she spoke, it meant that she was going to retaliate.

He was extremely excited and anxiously waited for Qiao Xi to turn the tables around.

“That’s right! The person who destroyed the materials should be disqualified! Chen Hao, Sister Mengqing, don’t you think so?”

Chen Hao suddenly felt nervous.

Yao Mengging looked helpless. “Xi Xi, what exactly do you want? Actually, you could’ve just withdrawn from the compet.i.tion… But since you said so, I have nothing else to say. Let’s leave it at that..”
