“She completed it a week ago,” Di Jingan answered smoothly.
“Ohh.” King Liby then looked at Jing Jie and asked, “Xiao Jie, when did you finish these gowns?”
“About…. About a week ago.”
Jing Jie was getting extremely nervous. For those who did not know him, they would have thought that Jing Jie was feeling scared.
A lot of netizens from other countries, who didn’t know Jing Jie well, started saying that Jing Jie must be the one who p;agirised it since he couldn’t even speak properly.
Soon, someone briefed the netizens about it, saying that Jing Jie wasn’t being nervous. It was just that Jing Jie had autism.
When they learnt that Jing Jie was autistic, most of them believed that Di Ranle was the one who plagiarized the designs. If there was any team here who wanted to get first and had been trying to do so by copying another team’s designs, they wouldn’t have chosen an autistic boy to do so.
“Princess Ranle, you are aware that your designs are the same as Jing Jie. Your father is saying that you have already thought of this a month ago, is that right?” Prince Ryder asked Di Ranle.
Di Ranle looked at Jing Jie, who was being nervous, and she answered confidently, “Yes, Your highness.”
“You completed it a week ago?”
“Yes, Your highness.”
Prince Ryder nodded his head, “The King from your country just said that you have plagiarised Jing Jie. Do you admit to it?”
Di Ranle took a deep breath before saying, “Your Highness, the honorable guests, and also those who have supported me all along, I would like to say a few things.”
“Sure, go on,” King Libby answered kindly.
“Most of you might not know that Jing Jie is the younger brother of Di Jinqian, the young miss of the richest family in Country Z.”
[We know that already.]
[We also know that Jinqian is the owner of Chloe.]
“But most of you might not know that I am also related to Jinqian. I am her blood related relative.”
[We know this as well.]
[Did you really think that this was a secret?]
[Just get to the point!]
“From my grandfather’s generation, our family has been separated into two. One of them was Jinqian’s grandfather, who went to Country Z, and the other one would be my grandfather, who stayed in Country B. Back then, because of some misunderstanding, my uncle left the family and as of today, my great grandfather has been trying to get them to return to Country B. This is also why he would be on their side as well.
“However, I can swear to God that these are my designs. I completed it more than a week ago and reported it to the committee ten days ago. You can check with the committee on this.”
“Oh? So when you reported it to the committee ten days ago, you had already completed all three designs?”
“Yes,” Di Ranle nodded her head confidently.
“You didn’t change anything?”
“No.”
King Libby then turned to Jing Jie and asked, “Xiao Jie, your designs are exactly the same as Princess Ranle, do you have anything to prove that these designs are yours?”
Jing Jie nodded his head, “The…. Design concept.”
“Inspiration?” King Libby then turned back to Di Ranle and asked, “Princess Ranle, Jing Jie is saying that his design concept can prove that he did not plagiarize you. Could you please tell us about your designs first?”
Di Ranle’s heart started racing but she already had a plan brewing in her mind. Even if they had the same designs, the inspiration behind it could be completely different. As long as Jing Jie could not prove that he was the one who finished the designs first, she could still say that these were her designs.
She nodded her head and spoke confidently to the crowd…
