Chapter 189: Chapter 189: Boom! Jiang Man is Caesar’s Most Treasured Designer Mo An

The old lady’s birthday banquet was troubled by such an episode, which immediately sparked a lot of gossip among the guests.

There is never a shortage of onlookers in the world; regardless of status, everyone has an unspoken agreement about joining in the excitement.

"This is going to be entertaining."

"If Jiang Man really gave a counterfeit, could she face a lawsuit?"

"That’s for sure, the legal team at LV is no pushover, they’ve become one of the world’s top luxury brands because they protect their intellectual property rights so well."

"Tsk tsk, this Jiang Man has gotten herself into trouble!"

Hearing the surrounding chatter, Yi Sha scoffed coldly.

She then quietly cracked sunflower seeds, waiting to see how He Hua would slap Jiang Man in the face and turn Jiang Man into a clown!

He Hua was confident and unafraid, outwardly respectful but, in her bones, extremely proud.

"Old lady, could you please bring out the ’Phoenix Returning to its Nest’?"

The Lu family’s matriarch frowned slightly, somewhat anxious.

If, and she just meant if, the ’Phoenix Returning to its Nest’ turned out to be a counterfeit...

But she believed in Jiang Man.

Jiang Man was not the least bit flustered, her face calm and untroubled, "Grandma, give it to her for authentication"

Seeing her so composed, the Lu family felt much more at ease.

The matriarch waved her hand and the butler quickly instructed two servants to bring over the ’Phoenix Returning to its Nest’.

Both were wearing white gloves and handled it with extreme care.

He Hua had braced herself mentally, thinking that no matter how well the counterfeit was made, she must not show even the slightest shock.

But as soon as the actual item forcibly entered her line of sight, the surprise she had tried to control still inadvertently showed.

At first glance, the counterfeit before her was truly stunning!

Whether it was the cut or the embroidery on it.

Especially when sunlight swept across the fabric, the suddenly emerging branches and vines ceaselessly spread.

As the exposure to light grew longer, the original embroidery patterns turned into a blazing fire.

The golden phoenix reborn from the flames, dazzling and vivid, so lifelike it seemed about to fly away!

He Hua blinked her eyes, scrutinizing the article of clothing before her multiple times.

A thought suddenly sprang into her mind—could it be that this was the real deal?

Impossible, how could that be?

Mo An had personally only made three pieces, one had been neatly packaged and sent to the Queen of Belgium.

Another was at the company’s headquarters, featured in the recent fashion show.

The fashion show took place in Italy.

Frankly, she had had the fortune of seeing the ’Phoenix Returning to its Nest’ only once, when she was on a business trip to the Paris headquarters a week ago.

At that time, Caesar had decided on the spur of the moment to move the fashion show date up and did not send out global invitations, planning to surprise everyone with a sudden reveal.

Therefore, at this moment, she was unsure whether the garment before her was authentic or fake.

"Begin," she said.

She stepped back, indicating that her secretary and assistant should take over.

Her assistant was an expert in this kind of authentication.

They used the fabric material, patterns, colors, and even stitching to distinguish authenticity.

The ’Queen’s Crown’ collection had a unique feature—every set of clothing bore a six-pointed star diamond brooch.

The brooch employed special laser technology, where by using a microscope, one could clearly see the anti-counterfeit mark and the anti-counterfeit code on it.

This code was a string of numbers personally devised by Mo An, which no outsider could guess.

"I will contact the headquarters to inquire about the code."

As the secretary and assistant were authenticating, He Hua spoke in a deep voice, while dialing the headquarters’ phone number.

"No need to ask, the code is JMJTXQHBC," said Jiang Man indifferently, with her arms folded across her chest, looking completely composed as she watched the two authenticators at work.

Seeing that they had brought out their miniature microscopes, she kindly saved them the trouble out of goodwill.

He Hua, however, was quite disdainful, ignoring her and continuing with the phone call.

Initially indeed, the call was answered by a staff member from headquarters.

Hearing that she was going to inquire about the code for "Queen’s Crown Phoenix Returning to its Nest," the call was suddenly transferred.

"It’s me," a cold, gloomy male voice came through the line quickly.

The voice was deep and thick, faintly laced with a hint of anger.

"Why are you asking for the ’Phoenix Returning to its Nest’ security code? This set isn’t sold in the Greater China region."

"Cae... Caesar..." He Hua immediately cowered upon hearing Caesar’s voice.

Her attitude turned respectful in an instant, and her voice softened, "It’s like this, we found that there might be counterfeit goods infiltrating the market, and I’m currently verifying at the suspect’s house."

"The press conference was held just today, how could there be counterfeit goods so soon?" Caesar’s voice roared like thunder, irritable and fierce.

He Hua shivered all over, hastily agreeing with a forced smile, "Yes, that’s right, so we need to investigate this matter promptly."

"The security code is JMJTXQHBC," Caesar said in a stern voice.

He Hua repeated the code after him and relayed it to her assistant.

The assistant squinted through the microscope, confirming each letter meticulously.

Upon matching the last letter, his eyes bulged, almost popping out of his head in shock.

"Director He... the code is an exact match..."

He Hua was still on the phone with Caesar and couldn’t believe her ears upon hearing the assistant’s words.

LV’s anti-counterfeit technology is extremely advanced, especially for the "Queen’s Crown" series.

This code, apart from Mo An herself, no one could guess it.

So there was only one possibility...

This "Phoenix Returning to its Nest" was genuine!

It was actually genuine!

He Hua’s mouth hung open, staring at Jiang Man in stunned disbelief.

The girl crossed her legs cockily, her eyebrows raised, leisurely watching her.

Her gaze was provocative, wicked, and cool.

"Give me the phone." Jiang Man motioned for it with her fingers.

Whether from shock that caused her brain to crash, He Hua wasn’t sure,

but she handed her phone to Jiang Man as if possessed by a ghost.

Taking the phone, Jiang Man spoke in a clear, cold voice, "It’s me, Jiang Man."

She was concise, uttering only those four words before returning the phone to He Hua and giving her a slanted head nod, "Take it."

He Hua, still in a daze, picked up the phone again; barely touching it to her ear, she heard a voice on the other end, like that of a tyrant in rage.

"Have you lost your mind? Jiang Man is Mo An, is there a problem with her giving away the clothes she designed herself?"

Mo An held absolute privileges at LV.

Other designers’ creations belonged to the company once designed.

But not for Mo An, he shared ownership with the company.

Meaning for every series he designed, he would keep a set for himself, and whether he sold it or gave it away was up to him.

But it was different for other designers; their designed clothes belonged entirely to the company.

"How... How can this be possible?"

He Hua’s pupils dilated, looking towards Jiang Man, her mouth agape, too stunned to speak.

The girl named Jiang Man appeared so ordinary, yet she was the renowned designer at LV, whom even Caesar had to handle with care?

"You must handle this matter properly; if you don’t appease the little master well, you can wait to submit your resignation!" Caesar scolded furiously, unsparingly blunt and unceremonious.

He Hua was rooted to the spot in astonishment.

She had fought her way up at LV for nearly 20 years, climbing to her current position through countless efforts.

Just because she offended Jiang Man, she was expected to resign?

No, it wasn’t Jiang Man; she had crossed Caesar’s most cherished designer!

She...

With weak knees, He Hua suddenly knelt down before Jiang Man.

This act left everyone present dumbfounded.
