Chapter 16: The Dust Settles
Seven days later.
Court.
Ma Zhixue was like a frosted eggplant, her face was pale.
Originally, in the Celestial Empire, plagiarism was difficult to define, which is one of the reasons why she had no fear.
But Wu Yuzhen actually got a video that she admitted to plagiarizing.
And this video did not invade her privacy, because it was a public place, and she was not alone, so the video was legal and valid and can be used as evidence.
Ma Zhixue doesn't remember saying what she said in the video, but the court has identified that the video is not edited and made, and it is absolutely true.
So this video can be used as evidence.
"After deliberation by the collegial panel, it is found that the facts of this case are clear and the evidence is sufficient after court investigation and court debate.
......
This court held that the defendant Ma Zhixue was convicted of plagiarism.
......
The verdict reads as follows:
Ma Zhixue compensates plaintiff Wu Yuzhen ......"
Half an hour later, Ma Zhixue walked out of the courtroom tremblingly, and the people around her pointed at her with all kinds of disdain.
Ma Zhixue knew that she was finished.
Loss of both people and money.
The court confiscated the proceeds of her plagiarism and ordered her to compensate the plaintiff Wu Yuzhen 500,000 yuan, and she asked Lin Xiangwen to help her out.
"Xiang Wen, Xiang Wen ......"
Thinking of Lin Xiangwen, Ma Zhixue was suddenly shocked, she had lost everything, and she could never lose Lin Xiangwen again.
Fortunately, Lin Xiangwen has real feelings for her, and seeing Ma Zhixue's soulless appearance, she is so distressed that she can't breathe.
"Zhixue, don't worry, I'm still by your side, and I will raise you. ”
Ma Zhixue's tears of emotion were about to flow out.
"Xiang Wen ......"
"Zhixue ......"
"Ahem......"
Qi Lin coughed lightly, interrupting the two of them.
Lin Xiangwen was a little embarrassed, looked at Qi Lin, and just wanted to say something, when suddenly a voice came from behind him:
"Lin Xiangwen, you were arrested on suspicion of tax evasion, and now please go back with us to assist in the investigation. ”
Lin Xiangwen turned around and saw a bunch of policemen.
His face turned pale.
In these years, there are few people who do business that can stand up to scrutiny.
And he's certainly not clean.
"Is there any misunderstanding?" Lin Xiangwen's voice trembled a little.
"You don't have to speak, but everything you say will be used as evidence in court. Lin Xiangwen, come with us. ”
Without any suspense, Lin Xiangwen was taken away by the police.
He didn't see a sneer on the corner of Qi Lin's mouth.
Ma Zhixue has no master.
"Qi Lin, what's going on? What's wrong with your father?"
Qi Lin didn't answer, but looked to the side.
Wu Yuzhen, the plaintiff in the plagiarism incident, walked over to Qi Lin and them.
Seeing the plagiarized protagonist appear, Ma Zhixue's eyes immediately dodged.
No matter how shameless a person is, he will still be embarrassed in this situation.
In particular, she also lost the lawsuit, and the court ruled that she should not only compensate Wu Yuzhen, but also apologize to Wu Yuzhen in the newspaper.
All in all, this time she was a failure.
She thought that Wu Yu had really come to mock her.
But it's not.
Wu Yuzhen came to her side, just glanced at her with disdain, and looked away.
"Mr. Qi, it's a pleasure to meet you. ”
Wu Yu Allah stretched out his jade hand.
Qi Lin smiled and held Wu Yu's really soft hand, "Me too." ”
"Thanks to Mr. Qi's help this time, I want to treat Mr. Qi to a meal, I wonder if Mr. Qi can appreciate his face?" Wu Yu Allah invited.
Wu Yu is really not a stupid person, when she sued Ma Zhixue, she was actually ready to fail.
Because of this kind of thing, there have been too many cases in the past.
But there is almost never a success in defending the rights of authors.
She was just angry and resorted to the law, but she unexpectedly won.
Of course, Wu Yuzhen knows who is the biggest contributor to this matter.
Qi Lin was also very face-saving, "We are helping each other, of course I invited Miss Wu." ”
"Whoever invites it is the same, as long as you can make friends with Mr. Qi. ”
"It's my pleasure. ”
Ma Zhixue was dumbfounded.
"Qi Lin, you ......"
Qi Lin didn't hear it, and left the court side by side with Wu Yuzhen, without looking at the woman again.
He has planned everything, and today is both a beginning and an end for him.
From now on, there is no need to continue to make false promises with the people of that family.
......
Wangjiang Pavilion.
Known as one of the 50 most romantic places in the world, it is said that the success rate of marriage proposal is 100% every day, with French dinner, red wine, beautiful scenery, and flowers.
Qi Lin didn't know if it was true, but since he was not short of money now, it was of course the best place to invite beautiful women to dinner.
After getting out of the car, seeing the Western restaurant in front of him, Wu Yuzhen's eyes lit up, and his eyes began to change when he looked at Qi Lin.
"Mr. Qi, to be honest, I thought you were going to take me to those roadside stalls at first. ”
Qi Lin was curious: "Why do you have such an idea?"
Wu Yuzhen chuckled: "It's all written like this in online novels, the things made by high-end restaurants are never as delicious as those from roadside stalls, as long as the supporting actress is not used to eating roadside stalls, she will be disgusted and pretentious by the male protagonist, and the male and female protagonists will always be in love at the roadside stalls." ”
Qi Lin was speechless: "I think it's because those who write novels can't afford to eat a big meal, so they can only eat YY meals that are not as delicious as those made by roadside stalls, which can be regarded as a kind of Ah Q spirit." ”
Wu Yuzhen giggled: "Mr. Qi is high-minded." ”
"Don't be too high-minded, if we don't go in, the way others look at us will appear the kind of eyes that look at white~ idiots in online novels. ”
"Mr. Qi is really good at joking. ”
In fact, Qi Lin is not very good at joking.
But the wine, the flowers, the view, the French dinner...... Against the backdrop of these things, as long as women are not stupid, men will become very attractive and very good at making fun of themselves.
This is normal.
Wu Yu is really not stunning, but she is also at the upper middle level, and she writes all year round, giving her a bookish temperament, making her charming enough to make her heartwarming.
In such an atmosphere, the beauty spoke softly, and the two talked happily.
Qi Lin told his grievances and plotted about himself and Ma Zhixue, there was no need for him to hide it, and he and Wu Yuzhen also had a tacit understanding.
Wu Yuzhen's eyes were full of adoration when he looked at Qi Lin.
"You're so amazing, step by step, stealing the day, I feel like you're like the male protagonist in those online novels. Wu Yuzhen blinked a pair of big eyes, shining brightly.
Qi Lin took a sip of red wine and chuckled: "Thanks to you for giving me the opportunity, then again, if you praise me like this, won't your boyfriend mind?"
"I'm single now. Wu Yuzhen blinked, "What about you, you are young and golden, you shouldn't lack a girlfriend, right?"
"It's true that there is no shortage, but I just broke up with my ex-girlfriend two months ago. ”
Wu Yu's eyes really brightened.
