Chapter 1997 No Good Ending

1st

Li Minxu waved his hand impatiently, "You go and sit over there first. Wait for me for two minutes, and I'll be right over."

Jing Xiaocha saw that the woman dancing with him also looked impatient. She hesitated, turned around, and left the dance floor.

Finding an empty seat and sitting down, Jing Xiaocha didn't order anything, but sat there waiting for Li Minxu to come over.

After the dance ended, Li Minxu walked over holding the woman who was dancing with him.

Jing Xiaocha followed him to where they were sitting. Li Minxu asked the waiter to give Jing Xiaocha a glass of wine and said with a smile, "Xiaocha, you have a drink first."

"I do not drink."

Jing Xiaocha shook his head.

But Li Minxu put the wine into her hand in disbelief, "How can you not drink? You won't get drunk from this glass of wine. If you drink, I will listen to what you have to say right away."

Jing Xiaocha shook his head insistently, "Editor Li, I really don't want to drink. I came to see you tonight to tell you that I have finished reading that novel..."

A trace of displeasure flashed across Li Minxu's face, but he did not persuade Jing Xiaocha. Instead, he leaned back, crossed his legs, and asked nonchalantly, "Now you know I didn't lie to you, right?"

Jing Xiaocha's face changed slightly, and he said seriously, "I'm pretty sure that every plot in my novel was thought up by myself, and I didn't borrow any plot from anyone. I don't know why that novel has so many plots like mine. The plot is the same.”

The woman sitting next to Li Minxu took a wine glass and toasted to him, and then the two of them drank from each other.

Li Minxu didn't pay attention to what Jing Xiaocha said. Instead, he acted carelessly with the woman next to him, making the woman giggle.

Jing Xiaocha frowned, "That novel not only has many plots that are the same as mine, but also the concept and characters, the entire outline is the same as mine..."

The two people were already kissing without anyone noticing.

But Jing Xiaocha found it annoying. Not only was it annoying, she was also angry that Li Minxu didn't listen to her at all.

She raised her voice and shouted, "Editor Li, please listen to me first, okay?"

"The bar is a place for fun. If you don't want to have fun, just leave and don't disturb us."

It was not Li Minxu who spoke, but the interrupted woman. She seemed eager to continue with Li Minxu, and looked at Jing Xiaocha with eyes full of hostility.

"Xiaocha, look, this is really not the place to talk. How about another day? You go back and change the plot and rewrite it. Then come to me when it's finished. Otherwise, what you're writing now will be in vain."

Li Minxu said something perfunctory and started to be intimate with the woman again.

The anger in Jing Xiaocha's heart was rising.

He stood up with a roar, looked down at the scene of Li Minxu being intimate with the woman, and said coldly, "Only you have read my story outline and characters, but now someone else has published the novel first, how can you If you can just ask me to go back and rewrite it in one sentence, what if you leaked it to others?"

Jing Xiaocha is a newbie, but he has heard about various things in the industry.

Her guess is not impossible, there are real examples of this happening before.

"Jing Xiaocha, what are you talking about?"

Li Minxu suddenly turned pale, "I have professional ethics, how could I sell your outline plot to others?"

"I didn't say you sold it, I just said, is it possible that someone else found out by accident?"

Jing Xiaocha looked at Li Minxu with cold eyes, not afraid.

Li Minxu sneered and looked at Jing Xiaocha with contempt, "What kind of masterpiece do you think you wrote? There are people who plagiarize yours, and you don't even know that they are famous writers. You are a newcomer to the industry, so it's okay to copy. You copied someone else’s.”

Jing Xiaocha turned pale with anger, "I didn't plagiarize."

"Huh, who knows if you have plagiarized? Others submitted the manuscript earlier than you and published it earlier than you. If you still want to publish, just go back and correct it honestly. If you don't want to write, there are still a lot of people waiting. Looking for this opportunity."

Jing Xiaocha was not convinced and unwilling.

The story that she had worked so hard to conceive and write for so long was published first without any explanation.

And she also gained a reputation as a plagiarist.

"Are you really sure that you didn't accidentally let others see the outline?"

"Jing Xiaocha, let me say it again, I have not leaked your outline to anyone, nor will I cover you for plagiarizing others. You have now violated our original contract. If you fail to submit a complete manuscript within the stipulated time period, , then you have to pay liquidated damages."

Jing Xiaocha opened his eyes angrily, "I'm not unable to hand it in. I've finished the manuscript ahead of schedule."

Li Minxu was disdainful, "I copied someone else's manuscript and finished it ahead of schedule. If I were like you, I could publish one book a day."

Jing Xiaocha was so angry that her body was shaking. These words were a great insult to her.

"I have to figure this out. Didn't the other party submit the manuscript earlier than I did? When did she sign the contract and when was the first submission? I also have a document record in my computer. I will ask a lawyer... …”

"Jing Xiaocha, you take yourself too seriously. You don't want to think that you are just a newcomer in the industry. If you are found guilty of plagiarism, you will not only correct it without knowing the mistake, but also make excuses. If you continue to make trouble like this, sooner or later you will be ruined. .”

threaten?

Jing Xiaocha looked at Bian Li's threatening eyes with a hint of contempt.

My heart sank hard.

The hands on his sides were clenched tightly into fists, and he looked stubbornly and firmly at Li Minxu, who also stood up in front of him.

"Those who are clean will be cleansed themselves. I will not be wronged like this."

Once her stubbornness comes, even the King of Heaven can't stop her.

Li Minxu's expression changed and he said in a deep voice, "I advise you, don't overestimate your capabilities, let alone humiliate yourself. If you still want to write, don't make the matter a big deal. If the matter becomes big, it won't do anything to you. the benefits of."

"Actually, you are afraid that I will find out. In the end, someone else plagiarized me, not me."

Jing Xiaocha sneered.

Li Minxu's guilty eyes flashed, and he said fiercely, "I have seen many people like you, and none of them ended well in the end."

Jing Xiaocha calmed down instead, looked at him calmly, and said in a calm voice, "Editor Li, originally I just thought that you accidentally let others see the outline. Now I am sure that you were not accidentally. Instead, I sold my outline to someone else.”

Li Minxu's face really turned pale, but Jing Xiaocha didn't see him in a place like a bar.

"Don't be slanderous. You, a newcomer, write those childish things and it's worth selling them. It's a joke. I advise you to go back and hurry up and finish the manuscript. There are still ten days left. If you can't finish it, you'll have to pay a lot of money." Let’s pay liquidated damages.”

Li Minxu was sure that Jing Xiaocha would not dare to investigate, and even if he did, he would not be able to find any results because her story was not serialized online.
