Chapter 839: Jewelry Design Competition (2)
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Cai Qinyue did not believe in Wen Nuan’s words. However, she was not bothered to argue with her either.
And thus, she said: “Well, I’m here to wish you a good result in the competition.”
However, Wen Nuan was in no mood to feign civility with Cai Qinyue. Instead, she pulled Jian Yunnao away.
When Cai Qinyue saw them leave, the smile on her face disappeared instantly.
“Your aunt used to be so polite to us. However, after the Jian family made their way into the Beijing circles, she just ignores us now. It’s as though she considers everyone else beneath her or something.”

Wen Ruo also looked at Wen Nuan and Jian Yunnao as they left.. However, she did not say anything.
Then, the competition began.
During the competition, no one else was allowed to enter the competition venue. The venue was to be kept absolutely quiet.
Furthermore, no electronic devices were allowed to be brought into the venue.
After the competition started, the contestants were given a theme by the judges.
This year’s theme was “fusion.”
This theme did not challenge Wen Nuan. After thinking about it for a while, Wen Nuan drafted up a design that she was happy with.
Wen Ruo seemed to have performed well too. When the designs were handed in, Wen Nuan saw the happiness on Wen Ruo’s face.
However, Wen Nuan did not really care about this. After all, her niece’s drawings did not affect hers.

The results of the competition came out the next day.
All the works were made public.
Wen Nuan’s design was awarded second place.
This was already a good result. After all, Wen Nuan was considered a rookie in the industry. Being placed in the top three ranks was an amazing feat.
Wen Ruo’s design ranked third. She placed just after Wen Nuan.

When Wen Nuan saw Wen Ruo’s design, a sense of familiarity flooded her.
Although many years had passed, Wen Nuan still recognized the work that she had designed with her own hands.
“Mother, what’s wrong?” Jian Yunnao asked hurriedly. He noticed that his mother’s expression was not right.
“Wen Ruo’s design… It looks like the one that I designed thirty years or so ago…”
“Really? If that’s the case, then this is plagiarism!”
“Yeah, I think it’s my design. After all, I drew it with my own hands. Therefore, I still have some impression of the design. Even if a long time has passed since then, I would not completely forget about the design.”
“Where are those designs right now?”
“I probably didn’t bring them with me when I got married. I don’t know where they are right now.”
After all, those designs were spontaneously drawn by Wen Nuan. They were left in the Wen family attic with many of Wen Nuan’s old possessions.
Previously, Wen Nuan did not think of these designs.
However today, she suddenly saw Wen Ruo’s competition entry.
“Wait, so that means Wen Ruo saw your old designs and used your work in the competition?!”
As he thought about this, a look of anger appeared on Jian Yunnao’s face.
Jian Yunnao stood up as he wanted to go and find the organizer of the competition: “I’m going to speak to the organizer of the competition! I will expose Wen Ruo’s shameless behavior!”
Wen Nuan pulled Jian Yunnao back: “We don’t have any evidence.”
Even if Wen Ruo stole Wen Nuan’s previous designs, they did not have any evidence.
After all, when Wen Nuan drew those designs back then, there were no witnesses nor records.
“Then are you going to just let her use your work like this?” Jian Yunnao said angrily.
Although Wen Ruo’s ranking did not affect his mother’s results, her rank still came from the fruit of his mother’s labor. What right did she have to use his mother’s designs?
Wen Nuan: “But we don’t have any evidence. The organizers of the competition will not back up our claims. Furthermore, your uncle…”
