"Han Li!" Seeing his younger brother being taken away by Han Li, Lai Chengchun yelled angrily, and followed them to Jiancheng.

After entering the glass door, Han Li immediately turned around and closed the door.

Lai Chengchun was locked outside, his eyes widened in disbelief, and he slapped the glass and shouted in: "Han Li! If you dare to take Yunque away, I'll tell you to look good! —— Zhong Yunque, come back!"

Seeing his anxious and angry face, Han Li raised the corners of his mouth coldly.

Lai Chengchun was even more shocked and angry because of this, he clenched his fist and hit the glass door heavily.

"Han Li." Wang An waved at Han Li with panic and impatience on his face.

Han Li turned around and passed Zhong Yunque's side. Thinking that Lai Chengchun was staring at them, he took Zhong Yunque's hand and led him to Wang An's office.

After Wang An and the two of them entered the office, they glanced furtively outside, and finally closed and locked the door.

His behavior made Han Li both surprised and suspicious, and he really couldn't guess what his plan was.Han Li looked at Zhong Yunque, and saw that he was also confused.

Wang An turned around, rubbed his hands, smiled eagerly at Zhong Yunque, and asked, "Uh, who is this gentleman?"

"Oh, hello. My name is Zhong Yunque. I'm with you. I was an intern in the Qicuo studio of Lin Zhiyou and Mr. Wang Rumo." Zhong Yunque extended his hand politely.

"Hello, hello." Wang An shook hands with him, brought them to the coffee table, and asked them to sit down.

His polite appearance gave Han Li some ideas.Judging from the situation just now, it was clear that Han Li was at a disadvantage, but looking at Wang An's attitude now, it seemed that Wang An would ask for something from others.

"Hehe, I'm sorry, it was too noisy and chaotic just now, and I didn't figure out what was going on." Wang An smiled sheepishly and asked, "Mr. Zhong, I remember that you just said that 'Chunhai' was Han Li Works in college? You can be sure about this, right?"

Zhong Yunque nodded with certainty, and said, "I guarantee with my personality that 'Chunhai' must have been designed by Han Li."

Wang An rubbed his chin, looked puzzled, and murmured: "Then why did Zhijie's people say he plagiarized?"

Han Li frowned, and exchanged a glance with Zhong Yunque.

Before they could answer, Wang An said again: "Could it be that they want you to admit plagiarism on the condition that you don't disclose your cheating?!"

After listening, Han Li basically confirmed what he wanted to do.He couldn't help looking at Wang An with admiration, thinking: Wang An is not very professional in his field, but he is very proficient in heresy.

"Probably." Han Li pretended to regret.Erqing, he said: "Mr. Wang, 'Spring Sea' is a very important work for me. I very much hope that it can be completed one day and displayed in front of the world."

Wang An's eyes lit up, he nodded repeatedly, and said, "I think so too."

Han Li went on to say: "'Chunhai' was sent up in your name. Lu Zhijie recognized it as my manuscript and wanted to find fault with me, so he said it was plagiarism. But to report plagiarism, there must be evidence, and there is no basis for empty words. Where is the evidence? Since there are plagiarists, there must be plagiarists, right? The drawing must have a base map. Mr. Wang, as long as you insist that 'Chunhai' is your work, no one will have it except me. Qualified to say no."

"Senior?!" Zhong Yunque heard the clue and interrupted him in shock.

Wang An was also surprised, but in Han Li's view, his surprise was more expected.After all, Han Li had been in an unsophisticated circle for a few years, and he had seen a lot of hypocrisy.Wang An's brows were deeply furrowed, his face was full of embarrassment, but the corners of his mouth could already faintly see the twitch of a smile.

He finally held back his smile and said, "Well, this matter is decided. Lu Zhijie is a villain, and I have long disliked him. Since you have an enmity with him, we can be regarded as the same enemy. Yes, you were expelled from the school, so what? Even if you graduated from school, you have no qualifications, so you can’t design? You admitted to me long ago that you have no design qualifications. What is the difference between whether you are expelled or not? So , I think that kid Lu Zhijie is sure that you can’t do design, so he’s looking for this trouble. He wants to use this to make us turn against each other, there’s no way!”

As soon as his words fell, Zhong Yunque frowned.

"'Chun Hai' is a very important work for me, and I am unwilling to give it up no matter what." Wang An's words did not surprise Han Li at all. Han Li frowned, pretending to be deep in thought, and finally said, " But in the future, there will be Luhe Group's film city project..."

"I'm upset about this!" Wang An slapped his thigh, gave Han Li a meaningful look, and sighed, "Well, after all, it's still a matter of your aptitude. I definitely don't think getting fired is a big deal here. I don’t think so, at least, there’s no way to verify it!”

Seeing his sigh, Han Li said, "Mr. Wang, if you don't mind, I still want to use your name to design Luhe Flagship Studios."

Wang An was stunned, looked at him in disbelief, and asked, "In my name?"

He was indeed very surprised, but Han Li guessed that his surprise might be because Han Li would take the initiative to talk about it.Han Li nodded affirmatively and said, "I heard that Lu Zhijie's company also participated in the bidding this time. I don't want to let go of any chance to beat him. In other places, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to find such an opportunity to display my only ability." I hope Mr. Wang can make it happen."

"You mean... the design drawings of Luhe Flagship Studios should be signed with my name, even if I don't participate in the design at all?" Wang An looked at him very uncertainly.

Han Li nodded with great certainty.

"Senior..." Zhong Yunque couldn't help but grabbed Han Li's hand, frowned and shook his head frequently.

Han Li took his hand out of his hand, and in order to reassure Wang An, he said, "If Mr. Wang is worried, we can sign an agreement now."

"Uh, that's not necessary. Which of us is with whom? Don't be so alien." Wang An waved his hands cheerfully, as if he had completely trusted Han Li.

Han Li smiled with satisfaction and said, "In that case, thank you, Mr. Wang first."

Seeing that the two had agreed, Zhong Yunque's face turned red, and when Han Li looked at him, he gave Han Li a hard look.

He and Wang An, who took advantage of whom?Han Li was not completely sure about this.As an architect, Han Li certainly hopes that his name can be signed on the works, but now he does not have any qualifications, which is a fact.

If Lu Zhijie insisted on this point and trampled him on the soles of his feet, Han Li would not be able to swallow this breath.Thinking of Lai Chengchun's betrayal, Han Li couldn't care less about anything else.He just wanted to repay what Lu Zhijie said to him, and let Lai Chengchun taste the feeling of being betrayed.

Not only the Xinfeng Liyuan project and the Luhe Film City project, from now on, as long as Jiancheng appears, Zhijie will never get ahead.Han Li knew that Wang An would not let him go easily.Wang An saw that he had nowhere to go but Jiancheng, and he knew that Wang An would not be able to hand over anything decent without him.

"Senior, how can you do this?" After Jiancheng left, Zhong Yunque asked immediately, "Others are worried that their work will be plagiarized or misappropriated, but you choose to offer it with both hands. What about the dignity of an architect? You don't want it anymore." ?"

Han Li stopped, looked at him and said, "From the moment I was expelled from school, I am no longer qualified to talk about the word 'dignity'."

Zhong Yunque was stunned, and said seriously: "No, you have. You just care too much about your dignity and are unwilling to be trampled by Lu Zhijie, so you would rather defeat him in this way."

"Then what's wrong?" Han Li asked.

Zhong Yunque's expression froze, his eyes became melancholy, and he said, "I'm sorry for you, 'Spring Sea' is a very good work, and I believe that the future 'Deer and Movie City' will be as well. But...they will all be signed by the king." Ann's name, no one knows that you designed it."

"But tell me, what else can I do? If I don't do this, what should I do?" Han Li took a deep breath, "I'm even more unwilling to do anything else."

Zhong Yunque looked sad and lowered his eyes.Suddenly, he raised his head and said, "Senior, can you try to sign up for the Swiss Freedom Award next year? That award is only for young designers under the age of 35, and there is no threshold for participation. But as long as you can win the award, you can immediately Obtain the qualifications of a designer. At that time, whether it is Lu Zhijie or Wang An, you don't need to listen to them anymore."

Han Li smiled bitterly and said, "How can it be so easy to win a prize in that kind of competition? So far, no one in the mainland has won the highest prize."

"If you become No.1, everything will be different." Zhong Yunque encouraged with an unquestionable tone.

Looking into his bright eyes, Han Li's hatred and contempt for Lai Chengchun faded a lot.He suddenly realized that Zhong Yunque, who was standing in front of him at this moment, had abandoned his identity as "Lai Chengchun's younger brother" by himself.When Zhong Yunque said these words, he didn't think about Lai Chengchun at all, but thought of him sincerely.

Thinking of this, Han Li couldn't help but regret his actions just now.He wasn't sure if it was fair to Zhong Yunque to use Zhong Yunque to make Lai Chengchun have nothing to do but resent him.

"Yun Que, didn't you say you were going abroad before? Why are you still in China?" Han Li asked.

Hearing this, Zhong Yunque's face froze, and he replied, "Mr. Xiao Lin left Qicuo and went back to the rest studio he originally founded. Teacher Wang fell ill because of this, and I want to stay and help them."

Han Li was surprised, and asked, "It's a rare opportunity to go abroad, so you just gave up?"

He smiled lightly and said, "It's okay, there will be opportunities in the future. But right now, Teacher Lin and the others need me. They have kindness to me. Now that I have the ability to repay, of course I have to help."

"You really value feelings..." Han Li couldn't help but said, "It's completely different from your brother."

Zhong Yunque smiled awkwardly after hearing this, and once again solemnly exhorted: "Senior, although I don't agree with what you and Wang An did, since you have made a decision, I have no objection. But I think, since today I am here, even if I am a witness when you two made this agreement. If there is any change in Wang An's side in the future, I will definitely stand up and prove that those designs are yours."

Han Li brought Zhong Yunque into Wang An's office earlier, not only because he wanted to anger Lai Chengchun, but also because of this.Listening to Zhong Yunque's initiative to say this now, Han Li really didn't know if he knew what he was thinking from the beginning, or if it came to him after listening to the conversation.

"Thank you." Han Li said sincerely.

Zhong Yunque's eyebrows were always slightly worried, and he must still be unable to accept Han Li's plan to give up the design signature.He shook his head and said, "Senior, since I'm still in China for a short period of time, you're in such trouble again now. If there is anything you need from me in the future, just tell me. But be sure—" He paused, " Don't be so foolish again."

Hearing the last sentence, Han Li was startled.He nodded and said, "I know."

On the way home alone, Han Li repeatedly thought of Zhong Yunque's "spirituality".He did not deny at all that when he was making a decision, he was indeed dazzled by hatred.However, after a few hours, Han Li calmed down, but he still couldn't think of anything else he could do.

As Zhong Yunque said, participating in an international-scale design award competition, will you "reach the sky in one step" after winning the award?Not to mention that it was out of reach for Han Li, even if he really had the ability to win a certain award, it would not be achieved overnight.But now, he was too eager to trample Lu Zhijie under his feet, and he couldn't tolerate Lu Zhijie's arrogant face for a moment.

When did his misfortune begin?From the moment he was exposed by Lu Zhijie for taking the exam?Since Han Xiaolian took drugs for the first time?Or, from the day he was born?

However, neither his birth nor Han Xiaolian's drug use is a past that he can trace back or change.There is a word called "debt collection". Now, the only debtor Han Li can find is Lu Zhijie.

Originally, after Han Li left Shi Yuanpeng, he and Pei Yanyu could start a new life, but he didn't expect Lu Zhijie, the "creditor", to come to him.This is just right, if there is anything unresolved between Han Li and the past, perhaps only the grievances with Lu Zhijie remain.Taking advantage of this opportunity, he settled the settlement together.

Right now, Han Li still had the difficulty of explaining to Pei Yanyu.

Although Pei Yanyu didn't know anything about the design circle at all, Han Li was in Pei Yanyu's eyes when he worked at home every day.If he told Pei Yanyu every time that his works were selected, how would he explain to Pei Yanyu where those works went?Leaving aside the mountain house in Xinfeng Liyuan, if Jiancheng wins the bid for the project of Luhe Flagship Cinema, the news will definitely report it.At that time, how should he explain to Pei Yanyu that the designer is Wang An and not him?

Pei Yanyu has not yet known about the fact that he was expelled from the school for cheating, nor did he know about the fact that he bought a fake diploma. He always thought that he was a graduate of Moling University, and he found the current job as a matter of course with his real resume.Now that the matter has evolved to this point, Han Li can no longer find any reason to delay and conceal it. He has to admit this part of his past to Pei Yanyu.

Will he be angry?Han Li couldn't help worrying, but quickly let go of worrying.

Pei Yanyu can even accept that he was an MB, and it shouldn't be difficult to accept that disgraceful past.Han Li could even imagine that Pei Yanyu not only accepted it, but also began to worry about him and worry about his future development.

Thinking of Pei Yanyu like that, Han Li no longer regretted his decision.Since the past cannot be changed, the only way to resurrect is to step on the wreckage of the past.
