The events unfolded unexpectedly, and to everyone’s surprise, Ye Lengan had the gown brought out, allowing Airelly to openly confirm Ye Xiyuan’s plagiarism.
Airelly stood up and approached the gown. She then extended her hand, lifting the black cloth that covered it.
As the black cloth was unveiled, the gown came into full view for everyone. If the initial reaction to Ye Xiyuan’s design sketches was one of amazement, seeing Airelly’s gown now left them in awe.
The gown, with its smooth black satin surface, layered skirt, and intricate silver-thread embroidery with diamond embellishments at the hem, revealed a constellation map when illuminated. The difference between Ye Xiyuan’s design, seen in the sketches, and Airellys masterpiece was like comparing a pheasant to a phoenix.
Undoubtedly, Airelly, the world-renowned fashion designer, had a knack for creating designs that left a profound impact.
“This is the finished product that took me six months to complete,” Airelly explained. “From design to completion, I handled every aspect, including the embroidery and diamond inlay. This piece is named ‘Galaxy’ and, once finished, will be air-shipped directly to Neo Fashion Company.”
Looking towards Ye Xiyuan, Airelly continued, “So, I genuinely don’t understand why Miss Ye Xiyuan’s gown is so similar to mine. However, I do commend her for gaining such inspiration in such a short time. You must know that it took me almost three months just for design and modifications.”
At this point, Ye Xiyuan’s complexion was deathly pale, and she felt an icy chill throughout her body. Her lips quivered, but no words escaped. The denial she wanted to express felt feeble in the face of the undeniable truth.
She even felt like a clown, reflecting on her earlier denials.
In her previous life, she had only seen an image of this gown in a magazine. Drawing the design from memory, she now realized how absurd her actions were when faced with the finished product.
At this juncture, everyone understood the situation. Ye Xiyuan had evidently seen Airelly’s designs or design drawings and replicated them from memory. However, her reproduction lacked the essence of the original.
On the sidelines, Ye Li was visibly furious, and he couldn’t bear to face the others. He felt that Ye Xiyuan had not only failed to bring honor to the Ye family by winning the championship but had also tarnished their reputation with this plagiarism scandal.
“You deceitful girl.” Ye Li erupted in anger, delivering a forceful slap to Ye Xiyuan. “To think you resorted to plagiarism. You’ve disgraced the Ye family.
How can we have a daughter like you?”
With those words, Ye Li ignored Ye Xiyuan and left in a huff.
Left behind, Ye Xiyuan stood in place with swollen cheeks and a throbbing pain. It was only when security guards came in to escort her away that she snapped back to reality, leaving with a resentful look directed at Ye Lengan before departing..
