Not until all eyes were gathered on Wen Wanzhi, did Xiang Yiran draw back her gaze and started speaking again.
"I believe that every designer present here can understand the pain of having their work plagiarized. I also hope to give Xiong Lin's talent another chance through this show."
Xiang Yiran's words were like a knife cloaked in gentleness, her aim clearly directed at Wen Wanzhi.
The haggard designer Xiong Lin, leaning on Xiang Yiran's wheelchair, managed a strained smile and coughed several times before speaking.
"Hello everyone, I'm very happy to participate in 'Newborn', and I thank Miss Xiang for the... opportunity."
In her speech, there was an imperceptible hesitation on Xiong Lin's face.
Wen Wanzhi, sitting at a distance, saw it all crystal clear.
She feared that Xiang Yiran had used some underhanded tactics to coerce Xiong Lin into acting.
