He staggered his face slightly, and his expression was a little unnatural: "The password is your birthday." ”

I was really stunned. Even the air was unwilling to stagnate, and the mysterious low pressure swirled heavily, and the atmosphere was very condensed.

The two silently opposed each other, reflecting, but avoiding the real problem.

"Don't use my birthday. Yizhen smiled bitterly: "It's too easy to see through." ”

"I got used to it. He sighed gloomily and staggered his face slightly.

"When—" She didn't say the last two words.

"Wait until you've got it done. Isn't there a month left on the contract?"

"Hmm. ”

Yizhen didn't look at him again, and went straight to the study. In addition to the will, there was also her passbook in the box.

The most precious thing for the two.

She was silent for a long time, and then put the letter inside.

There's still a month, still too short, too short. Yizhen paints in Johnson's garden, and Nan Jingfeng asks her what her plans are for the future.

"I don't know. Yizhen propped his chin and thought, "Maybe it's tourism." ”

"That's great, I've got some places I haven't been to. ”

"Are there two of us?"

"What kind of expression do you have?" Nan Jingfeng snorted: "You are both divorced women, there can be no misunderstanding between the two of us." ”

Yizhen smiled: "Oh, too." ”

The point is that Ember will never misunderstand her again. A down-and-out and empty life.

Johnson complimented Yizhen for her recent progress and did not express much sympathy for her plight, saying only that she could come to his studio when her vacation was over. His studio should have been set up by then.

Of course, Yizhen gladly accepted it, the feelings are gone, there must be a career, and everything has a time when the hardships are sweet. She waited quietly on the riverbank.

In my dreams, there is no one at all. Chased. She got on the boat. The floating boat was driven forward. Struggling to swim back to shore. The earth throbbed at her feet again, cracks sprouted, and she fell deeply.

Yizhen woke up, and the creeping fear sat down all over his body.

Weng, Weng. The phone rang. It was also a strange number and did not answer. Weng, Weng. Calling again. I'm really frowning. It rings non-stop. It's like an early warning. She swiped the answer button. The other side said that someone had sued her for fraud.

"What the hell is going on?" "Ember of the night threw the court summons in front of Yizhen.

Yizhen frowned, it all started when a painting and calligraphy lover got a painting from a friend, and it was exactly the same as the one he bought from Yizhen.

Because the source of the painting is unknown, the author cannot be found. However, after this person did an appraisal, he confirmed that the painting he bought from Yi Zhen was pirated, and he wanted to sue her for plagiarism and fraud.

Then the whole body was moved, and the keyboard warriors came out one after another, either saying that the paintings were plagiarized from the works of well-known foreign painters, and then invested in the mainland market to make money. Or say that her paintings are actually worthless, but they are sold for sky-high prices.

"What's going on?"

Yizhen took the pictures of those paintings from the lawyer, confused, "I didn't paint these paintings." Some of them are obviously pirated, and some of them were not drawn by me at all, so why are so many people accusing me?"

She doesn't think that she is more famous in China and deserves such a big foreshadowing.

"I asked you what's going on? you asked me in turn?" "Do you know how much you're going to lose the company?"

"I really don't. Yizhen said categorically: "Someone must be trying to harm me." ”

"These are not the main ones, they are just following the trend and using the pressure of public opinion to build momentum. Lawyer Zhang turned the page and pointed out the testimony to Yizhen, "The fuse is in this painting." ”

"This painting is a bridge built by Wan Yanzhi, saying that I gave it to him because a customer wanted it. It wasn't me who negotiated with the buyer in person, and I think Qian's mother can testify to this. Yizhen explained: "Because I was in a hurry to come to the company that morning, I specially instructed Qian's mother to come to pick up the painting." ”

Ember nodded mechanically. "It's better to have some other evidence. Rumors have always been contrary to the truth, and if someone deliberately framed you for fraud and plagiarism, the most we can prove is that you painted this painting. None of the others can be stonehammered. ”

"It's not impossible for the public to speculate that you are deliberately whitewashing. Otherwise, why don't other paintings be held accountable? ”

"And the most important thing. In just one week, we have at most identified this one through the appraisal center, and both the plaintiff and the defendant are still clear. ”

"And we don't know who the person who faked the other paintings is, how can we sue them? What can we do if we punish the rumor-mongers? If one rumor-monger falls, there will be tens of thousands of rumor-mongers who will stand up. ”

"But the information of the clients who bought my paintings is still there. "It's true.

"If you can't find someone who forged the painting, you can't file a case at all. There's no way to confirm that you didn't draw those paintings. The case itself is not the point, it is the public opinion-oriented turmoil behind this case, which is enough to ruin your career and statement. ”

Yizhen's eyes flashed: "The time when my paintings were completed is registered. Doesn't that mean that the account is a company?"

"These two conditions can only be used to screen for 'fraudulent' and 'plagiarized' paintings. ”

"So this is the special feature of this case, because the other party has three ironclad evidence, one is the contract, the second is the flow of money, and the third is the appraisal of the painting. ”

"If you're not careful, you'll be guided by public opinion and you'll fire at CC. Think these are all shady things that CC manipulates. Our purpose is to use this trial to refute public opinion, even if we win, but it does not deal a blow to public opinion, and there will be more and more trouble in the future. Of course, we must not lose. ”

"I think I have one more proof to prove it. It's a bit risky, though. ”

Yizhen screened out three paintings and handed them to Lawyer Zhang to explain a few words, asking him to identify them.

Lawyer Zhang was slightly shocked, "Wouldn't this be a problem?"

"I think so. "Ember of Night.

With a slow voice, I really suspected that I had heard it wrong, and it was the gentle and silent expression that was not quite right.

Lawyer Zhang also treated them as having a good relationship, resisting an expressionless face, and walked in a hurry. The image of a lantern folded.

Nightash didn't even need to think about it to know who was behind the deception, and Wan Yanzhen didn't have that much courage.

In a blink of an eye, I saw the face that was really fixed on the screen. He remembered the isolated ice floes on the river.

"Don't look at it. ”

He snatched her phone lightly. The pale skin is stained with the smell of grass after the rain.

Yizhen lowered his eyes, and his mind was taken away by another world.

What a fool, he thought to himself. It's always full of problems, and how to take care of yourself in the future.

"I'll help you. ”

"I'm sorry for you. ”

"Hmm. ”

When I went home at night to make shrimp-stuffed dumplings, I accidentally forgot to put salt and ate a faint bitter taste in my mouth.
