Chapter 236: The Original Design (2/2)
The design I stole is fake? Impossible! The final product has undergone many tests. It passed them all so it can't be faulty. The b*tch must be lying.
The others had no reason to believe Xinghe. Mrs. Xi scornfully scoffed, ”In other words, you have no proof! Xia Xinghe, you need to go to the mental department not the surgery hall. Now get lost, we don't welcome you here.”
”Xinghe, we've all seen Ruobing's design and it is definitely not faulty so, for everyone's sake, please stop with the accusation.” Tianxin appealed with a heartbroken expression.
Xinghe definitely did not have public opinion on her side. After all, she provided zero reason for people to trust her.
Elder Xi's patience was wearing thin. He roared angrily, ”If you have no proof, why are you here to waste our time! I'm asking you one last time, is the design yours or Ruobing's? Xia Xinghe, this is the last chance I'm giving you so I advise you to think carefully before you answer.”
”Of course, it is mine!” Xinghe answered in an imposing manner. Her sharp gaze stared everyone down, ”Only I could come up with such a design!”
Elder Xi was startled. He could hear the faith Xinghe had in her words. Either she was telling the truth or she was highly delusional. For some reason, he started to lean towards the former.
”It is mine!” Ruobing challenged with confidence burning in her eyes, ”This is my design. Xia Xinghe has spent less than two days at the lab. She couldn't have come up with something as good as this without in-house research and testing!”
”Ruobing is right. I can attest to the time and effort Ruobing has poured into this design over the years. I'm sure everyone at the lab will say the same,” Tianxin said to support her friend. She had quite a good standing within the Xi Family so she managed to pull most of the crowd over to Ruobing's side.
Alas, she was unable to shake Mubai's conviction.
He added as a counter-argument to Tianxin, ”This design is Xinghe's. I'm willing to bet my reputation on it!”
”That's right. This is my sister's design, I'm willing to bet my life on it!”
