The Hidden Heiress Is a Secret Big Shot

Chapter 369: Chapter 369 Qingwu’s Pseudonym Exposed, I am Ziwei

It’s no wonder Shen Shaojia would have doubts!

Primarily because Qingwu’s style is just too similar to Master Ye Yi’s works!

Even the matching of accessories and the pleating of skirts are of the same style.

Many designers have their own unique style, and a world-renowned designer like Master Ye Yi has his own distinctive techniques for skirt pleating.

Qingwu pursed her lips calmly and said, “Yes, I know him. After all, my clothes are all designed by Master Ye Yi.”

Basically, all the clothes in Qingwu’s wardrobe were contracted by the works of Master Ye Yi.

Ever since the Shen Family discovered how particularly good Qingwu looked in Master Ye Yi’s designs, things spiraled out of control!

Every time, before the new season’s designs were on shelf, Ji Qiurong would receive a preorder from the Shen Family backstage…

Shen Shaojia suddenly understood.

“Xiaowu, you’re simply a genius! You’ve already learned Master Ye Yi’s style, when so many others can’t master it!”

The shallow smile lingered on Qingwu’s face.

…

Conference Hall One.

After changing her clothes and finding a place to sit, Qingwu suddenly had several plates of food next to her.

The Shen Family, fearing that Qingwu and Shen Shaojia might be hungry, had gathered their favorite snacks for them.

Only after hearing that they went to change clothes did the Shen Family members feel relieved, surrounding Shen Shaojia and Qingwu with chattering concern.

Conference Hall One was filled with guests – all industry magnates invited to attend the meeting.

A familiar, yet faint scent of cedarwood drifted over as the seat next to her sunk slightly; Pei Jue unbuttoned his carefully tailored, vintage suit and sat down beside Qingwu.

The moment he sat, he took Qingwu’s hand, and the fatigue from days of nonstop work seemed to dissipate at the sight of her!

Noticing the faint dark circles under the man’s eyes, Qingwu chided, “There was no need to rush like this. Are you trying to work yourself to death?”

“I wanted to come back early to be with you.”

Knowing that Qingwu was concerned about him, a sweet curve formed on the corner of Pei Jue’s lips!

He gripped Qingwu’s hand tighter and whispered with a low chuckle, “I used to think to work more since going home had no significance, but now I just want to finish work quickly because I’m eager to get home earlier!”

As for whom and what he wanted to come home to, it went without saying!

It was also after meeting Qingwu that Pei Jue understood what homesickness really felt like…

Taking advantage of the brief dimness when the lights in the hall switched over and the stage lit up, Pei Jue leaned forward slightly and drew the girl next to him into his embrace.

The sound of a soft cough from Shen Shaojia was heard nearby; Qingwu’s ears turned red, and she instinctively tried to push Pei Jue away.

Pei Jue held Qingwu’s waist firmly, his voice resonating low in her ear.

“Don’t move, a lot of people are watching. Just let me hold you for a while.”

This man… he’s also aware that there are plenty of people around watching!

But feeling the fatigue on Pei Jue and his unguarded, wholehearted affection for her, Qingwu couldn’t bear to push him away…

After all, the Shen Family members were used to their intimacy.

So she let him hold her!

As the lights on the stage brightened, Ye Qilan, sitting in a wheelchair, looked around with a determined gaze in his eyes!

“Welcome everyone, what I want to share is the latest research progress from my laboratory! How much value is the limit for the development of the human brain?”

This question stirred up an immediate uproar!

The limit of human brain development?

This subject has not been left untouched over the years, but the crux is that Ye Qilan provided data on the display panel behind him!

Ye Qilan’s gaze was calm, but the fists clenched on his knees revealed his excitement at the moment!

“Over these years, I have conducted a plethora of experiments and drawn these data! The facts have proved that there is still a considerable part of the human brain that is eagerly waiting to be developed!”

A researcher stood up and questioned, “What about the scientific nature of these data? How do you prove the accuracy of these data!”

Ye Qilan smiled smugly.

“Because these data… come from Beidou Star Laboratory!”

Beidou Star Laboratory, a name almost every scientist in all fields has heard of!

Ye Qilan’s eyes blazed with fanaticism!

“The very first batch of Beidou Star Laboratory, I was the one who initiated it! That year, I came in contact with countless geniuses in this world, I developed their brains, and under the joint stimulation of external and internal forces, I obtained a group of geniuses!”

“For these geniuses to survive, they made unimaginable efforts. All these data are absolutely true, there is no problem with my data!”

From the audience, Tian Tong sneered, “Principal Ye, you just conveniently left out those failures, didn’t you.”

“They are not failures, but contributions to scientific research, deserving of respect just like the cadaver instructors in medical studies!”

Tian Ji rolled his eyes.

“‘Just like cadaver instructors’ you say, you might as well confess that they are all dead. Or worse than cadaver instructors—they have completely brain-dead and turned into lost souls on the frontier, unable to ever return home!”

Ye Qilan was emotionally charged!

“You don’t understand! This is art! This is the supreme art of scientific research! As long as I can restart Beidou Star, I can present my masterpieces to the world!”

Tian Yue stood up and applauded.

“How interesting, Principal Ye. If I’m not mistaken, a large portion of your data comes from the current Beidou Star, which is to say, crafted by our boss Ziwei, right?”

“After I left Beidou Star, indeed I no longer have access to those materials, but since I founded Beidou Star, the data should be shared!”

Po Jun mimicked retching.

“How shameless. Ziwei’s Beidou Star is not the same Beidou Star as yours.”

With a snap of fingers, the large screen behind Ye Qilan switched scenes, revealing the experiments of the past Beidou Star!

Surgery, electroshock, a massive quantity of drugs, intravenous injections, bright light to stimulate the nerves… various methods were used to explore the psychological and physiological limits of humans!

Seeing the images above, the guests below were stunned!

They knew of Beidou Star’s past fragments, but they did not realize it was such an inhumane laboratory!

Qingwu gracefully stood up, locking eyes with Ye Qilan calmly.

“I think a few data points in this report by Ziwei are worth questioning.”

Her voice was icy, yet clear enough for everyone on the set to hear her words!

“Firstly, this report was later collated by Ziwei. As the original leader of Beidou Star, Ye Qilan tried to cover up the lab’s flaws by erasing the ‘failure’ data.”

“Secondly, regarding the sample reports, Principal Ye Qilan’s experimental data on human brain development are fabricated.”

“Thirdly, Ziwei did not authorize Principal Ye to display this report, you have infringed on intellectual property rights!”

Someone immediately stood up on the scene.

“Ms. Shen, you’re not from the research field either, it’s one thing to question Principal Ye, but what gives you the right to say Ziwei’s report is flawed! You owe Ziwei an apology!”

“Yes, Ziwei’s experiments are known for their precision. How could such a fundamental error occur? You must apologize!”

Qingwu chuckled lightly, standing tall with a slender waist, her gaze firm.

“I’m afraid apologies are out of the question, because… I am Ziwei!”
