Di Jingchen turned ghastly pale as he lowered his head, “I wouldn’t dare.”
Di Zhong scoffed. Then, with the help of his cane and his servant, he slowly left the room, leaving behind a confused and angry Di Jingchen.
The contest continued and all of the designers were invited on stage with their models. The King of Country I was still thinking of how Jing Jie and Jinqian would be able to prove their innocence, thinking if there was a third party involved that could prove this.
However, this was Jinqian’s younger brother. Even if the committee told that they had previously saved the designs, Country B would also say that the committee was being biased.
Then, there was a call from the embassy. When the King answered the call, the embassy told him what King Di Zhong had to say.
From the call itself, Di Zhong has made it clear that he believed in Jinqian and Jing Jie. He believed that Di Ranle was the one who plagiarized in order to gain fame and that this had nothing to do with Country B.
He also said that he knew Di Ranle well enough to know that she would not be able to come up with such designs. In order to deal with such horrible scandal, the king would be coming over to Country I personally.
Plus, he even mentioned that these were all Di Ranle’s personal decisions and it had nothing to do with Prince and Princess Di.
When King Libby ended the call, he looked at Prince Di Jingan suspiciously.
“The embassy of Country B just passed on a message from King Di.”
King Libby then told the rest what he had just heard and asked, “King Di is on his way here now. What do you think he wants to do?”
Prince Ryder smiled as he answered, “He should be here to restore the reputation of his own country, given how Di Ranle would be embarrassing them very soon.”
“Well, we…”
“Since King Di already said that this has nothing to do with the Prince and Princess Di, you should make an announcement first, before the argument starts.”
King Libby stared at Prince Ryder, who had evil intentions before commenting, “I can assume that you and Jinqian are close friends.”
“Well, Director Zhan should know best if we’re friends right?”Prince Ryder answered, “I noticed how you were with Jinqian as well. So, perhaps you both are friends instead?”
Prince Ryder then turned the attention back to King Libby.
The King had no other choice but asked, “So I should make an announcement first?”
“King Di has already called you personally, which shows how urgent it is. You better make an announcement first.”
“Alright, then.”
At the same time, the judges had just raised their question. Di Ranle and Jing Jie didn’t even get the chance to answer.
Before King Libby could stand up and say a few words, Prince Di was the one who spoke first, “Judges, I am one of the honorable guests today, the Prince of Country B, Di Jingan. At the same time, I am also Di Ranle’s father. I have seen Ranle’s designs personally and she has told me the inspiration behind her designs. I believe that she is innocent.”
[Oh? Are you saying that the other party is plagiarizing intentionally?]
[You have a high status so we should all believe whatever the ‘prince’ is saying!]
[Di Ranle’s special abilities of being so thick-skinned must have been inherited from this prince!”
Just when the comment section was having a party and there were more and more netizens judging Di Ranle and her father, King Libby from Country I stood up.
He told everyone to settle down before looking at Di Jingan, “Prince Di, your king, King Di Zhong has just given me a call.”
This was the first time that King Libby was speaking to him face to face. Di Jingan felt incredibly nervous. He knew it! All of them were royalty, and no matter what, King Libby would definitely be on his side.
