follow my heart

In the leisurely afternoon, the sky was clear, and the bright but not harsh sunlight shone lightly on the living room.

Meng Buqing made Ji Wan a cup of tea and sat down. She took out her mobile phone and suddenly refreshed to a Weibo full of long pictures posted by Liu Yuan.Before you click in, you know what happened.

She finished roughly, frowned, went back to the beginning, and re-read it carefully.

The picture is a comparison of the similar plots of the two articles. There are a few places marked red, and many marked yellow.Liu Yuan was plagiarized, and the person who plagiarized her was the author of the same channel, Lin Liang.

Even Meng Buqing has read Lin Liang's book.Although the plot was long and bloody, she didn't finish it, but she knew that Lin Liang also had a lot of readers.

So that the comment area is quite confusing.

Fans on both sides, some said that the plagiarism was real, and some said that it was just stalking and not plagiarism.

Lily Circle has a small reader base and a high reader overlap rate. Many readers who were originally Liu Yuan are also defending Lin Liang as a coincidence.

When I wake up, I dream [It’s all popular memes, isn’t this subject written with the same plot, is this also called plagiarism? ? ?Liu Yuanda is usually not very grand, why is he so narrow-minded this time. ]

Smiling cat: [Has Liu Yuan been instigated by the troublemakers? This palette is not done right. ]

This was replied by Liu Yuan himself: [I made it myself, please tell me what is wrong? ]

Meng Buqing, as a bystander, felt so heartbroken that he couldn't speak after watching it.

She looked up and looked at Ji Wan who was reading a book calmly beside her.

I don't know if I should tell her.

The phone was lifted up, and then stopped in mid-air.

Ji Wan glimpsed it out of the corner of her eye, put down the book and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Look at this thing," Meng Buqing thought that she would see it sooner or later, handed over the phone and asked, "Judging from your eyes, Teacher Ji, is this plagiarism or a coincidence?"

Ji Wan took the lit phone.

She frowned slightly, and looked slowly, looking at one side first, and then looking at the other side again.

Then I clicked on the comments and looked around.Her face suddenly became more serious, and there was something indescribable in her eyes.

Obviously also shocked by some low IQ remarks.

After reading it, she leaned back, and then calmly said: "The general plot on the left is not very special, but the details are written very smartly and uniquely, and the right is copied from the fur. If you look closely, the logic chain is classic. I can't afford to speculate."

"So it was copied." Meng Buqing concluded with a tone of voice.

Ji Wan raised her hand and rubbed the center of her brows, sighed, and said helplessly: "If it didn't happen by coincidence, the chance is probably to win the jackpot five times in a row, but the chance exists after all. So just look at these things, judge Don’t come down and copy.”

"What?" Meng Buqing was startled, "I can't even judge this? What kind of judgment would it take?"

"Unless she copied a short paragraph word by word, exactly the same, text plagiarism is the easiest to judge. Usually only stupid people would copy like that."

Meng Buqing: "..."

Meng Buqing felt chills for Cui Youran, such a long picture, so many pictures, the number of words involved is estimated to be [-] to [-] words.Not to mention those who are lazy and inconvenient to carry out.

The novels I wrote so hard were treated as a material library by the authors of the same channel, dismantled at will, misappropriated and tampered with, and my readers said that they were narrow-minded. They were all popular plots and were not plagiarized.

Ji Wan took out her mobile phone and looked at Meng Buqing.

Turn the sound to mute and open Weibo.

Meng Buqing stared at the chat box with Cui Youran, thinking about how to comfort her.But she also doesn't know that she knows her vest.

After a while, there was no clue.

She refreshed Weibo again, and saw that Qi Min reposted that Weibo.

Qi Wen: ["Plagiarism is fine, as long as it looks good." Think about how embarrassing this immoral and stupid statement is. ]

Several comments popped up in an instant.

Originally, Liu Yuan and Lin Liang's author collections were similar, their Weibo fans were similar, and even the readers they had were similar.

Moreover, Lin Liang is a full-time author, and the total number of words in Lily's essays he has written is crushing that of Liu Yuan, who is a fanatic. The collection and points of articles are naturally higher than hers.The overall popularity is higher than her.

This is the reason why the quarrel is hard to distinguish between high and low.

But Qi Wen's readership is obviously not at the same level as theirs.She is the real master in the circle, the faulty kind.

The wind direction turned.

Even the label #林量灾灯# has been tagged.

Meng Buqing quickly forwarded it, expressing his support for forever originality.Then, keeping a distance not too close or too far away, she lowered her head and knocked her chin on the table, silently staring at Ji Wan.

Don't bother her to support her friends.

Ji Wan picked up the cup and took a sip of water, and soon saw the news.

Cui Youran: [You delete the forwarding!Too dangerous! ]

Cui Youran: [I avoided directly saying the word "plagiarism", and it is not without the possibility of being sued by her for defamation infringement. I am not afraid of her, but I must not let you get involved. ]

Cui Youran: [What's more, I guess she will cry and cry in the end, maybe she will pretend to be depressed and commit suicide or something.At that time, you will definitely be said to be an accomplice, absolutely not!So delete the retweet quickly! ]

Ji Wan typed quickly: [For a negligible legal risk and a non-existent matter, you asked me to keep silent, pretend not to see, and watch my cute friend being plagiarized and do nothing.You are not afraid of being said that I am heartless, unjust, indifferent and selfish, or that our relationship is hypocritical, or that Qi Wen also thinks that Liu Yuan's plagiarism is untenable... huh? ]

"..."

Cui Youran laughed, pursed her lips, and almost cried again after watching it again.

After knowing each other for so many years, when did Qi Min, a cold and sullen man, ever praise her for being cute?When did you send such a long message?

This is meant to make her happy.

Cui Youran didn't know how to thank her.After much deliberation, he sent a message to Meng Buqing: [Are you free for lunch? ]

The phone in front of Meng Buqing vibrated.

Picking it up to have a look, I couldn't help but look at Ji Wan next to me, frowning puzzled.What are the two of them talking about.

Reply: [It's free. ]

Meng Buqing stood up, eyes still confused, and said softly: "Cui Youran will treat me to dinner later, do you want to join me?"

Ji Wan: "..."

She paused for a few seconds, and couldn't help laughing: "No, you go by yourself, you have fun."

—

Meng Buqing changed her clothes and went out with her mobile phone in her pocket.

On the way, she was thinking about how to comfort the other party when she encountered such an unlucky thing.In her heart, this is much more worthy of comfort than quarreling with her boyfriend.

About in front of a Japanese grocery store.

Cui Youran was wearing a loose gray sweater suit, almost like home clothes, not at all as refined as she was in school.It seems that he already takes Meng Buqing as his own.

"Are you home alone?"

"No," Meng Buqing said honestly, "Ji Wan is also at home. After seeing your news, I abandoned her."

Cui Youran: "..."

Entering the store, waiters in pink and pink kimonos stepped forward.After welcoming them to their seats, he squatted down and introduced the special features of the restaurant and today's recommended menu to them in a low voice and kindly.

After Cui Youran asked her about her taboos, she quickly ordered something good.

I ordered a jug of plum wine.The waiter immediately brought over the wine and glasses first.

Cui Youran said: "I thought at this point, she should be busy, so I asked you to come out to play. Otherwise, I won't disturb you."

"Yeah." Meng Buqing poured her wine, "She said you might be in a bad mood, let's have a good time."

"..."

Seeing her wide eyes, Meng Buqing was obviously at a loss.

He couldn't bear to tease her: "I lied to you because I knew you were in a bad mood."

"Ah?" Cui Youran didn't react.

"As I said before, I can read Lily's novels, and I have followed many authors. I have long known that you are Liu Yuan."

Meng Buqing hadn't had time to explain.

Cui Youran closed her eyes in despair and said: "Okay, the whole world knows that I am Liu Yuan, only I don't know that you know..."

Meng Buqing: "..."

Cui Youran said: "Before the publishing house sent me a New Year's card, the pen name was printed in such a large size, and it was sent directly to my home. My whole family knew..."

Meng Buqing pursed her lips and endured it again and again, but couldn't help it: "Puff."

Cui Youran: "Then you come to comfort me?"

Meng Buqing nodded, "Drinking with you, such a bad thing, let's drink more."

Cui Youran touched the corners of her lips, and finally laughed: "Actually, it's okay, it's just your family Qi Wen's big retweet that shocked me... After thinking about it carefully, Qi Wen has the absolute strength to crush all gossip. I It's not bad, it won't hold her back, she helped me, I'm really happy."

Meng Buqing: "You two are one plus one greater than two."

"How should I put it..." Cui Youran held her chin, her smile was a little meandering, "I was making a color palette last night and imagining the reader's reaction, I've already guessed the ugly words, but I was really sad when I saw it. "

Meng Buqing listened quietly without blinking her eyes.

"I want to quit writing and never write again. I think these things are very boring. But seeing Qi Min's name is still on the list, shining, I feel calm again."

"She just gives me a feeling...if I'm not so lazy, if I work harder...can I become as good as her."

Cui Youran's voice suddenly choked up, inexplicably.

Don't know why.

"You really don't look like her colleague," Meng Buqing smiled, "like her fan girl."

"Hmph," Cui Youran admitted with a nod, sniffing, "Isn't chasing stars just about chasing after this kind of thing, which can make me full of upward motivation. Every time I want to show off, I just read what Qi Min said, and I'm not reconciled It’s rotten. One day I will write a particularly good work, like Qi Min, there is no comparable masterpiece.”

"A role model..." Meng Buqing touched her cup lightly, with a smile on his lips, and said softly and seriously, "You are also shining in my eyes, and I always think you are very powerful. Come on and grow up , next time it's your turn to cover Qi Min."

"Okay," Cui Youran was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled brightly, "I'm happy regardless of whether you're kidding me or not."

—

Ji Wan woke up from a nap, went downstairs to the living room.

Seeing that Meng Buqing had returned.

She was sitting in her usual writing position, basking in the sun in a daze, with a book with a particularly familiar cover in front of her.Ji Wan stared blankly, pretending not to see it.

He poured her a cup of tea and asked, "What are you thinking?"

Meng Buqing first put the teacup on the other end away from the book, then raised his face, raised his lips and said with a smile, "I'm thinking of you."

Ji Wan lowered her eyes and landed on the book, she couldn't help but chuckled.

"Ah."

If you are reading a book, you can indeed say that you miss her.

Meng Buqing opened the cover seemingly unintentionally, revealing the signature on the title page.Raising his hand to support his chin, he said slowly, "Look, my newly signed book."

Ji Wan: "..."

You can tell without asking, it was given to her by Cui Youran.She only signed the wrong batch of this book.

Ji Wan nodded calmly, and asked again: "Are you having fun?"

"Fortunately, the two of us got together and said a lot of bad things about others, and we danced and danced very happily," Meng Buqing said innocently, with a natural tone, "Who made me and her both like the same author, especially because we have a common topic."

Ji Wan remained silent, lamenting that Cui Youran helped her hide it very well.

Although I knew she wouldn't say it on purpose, but at first I thought she, a careless little girl, might slip up at any time.It turned out that he underestimated her.

Meng Buqing rubbed the blank space under the signature with his fingertips, and looked up at her: "Do you want to comment on this excellent signature? What do you think of the words?"

"It's okay for a layman, but it's okay for an insider." Ji Wan reluctantly did not criticize, "Let's make do with it, it has nothing to do with excellence."

Meng Buqing: "..."

What's wrong with this person, it's so difficult for her to listen to her bragging?

Besides, the writing is already very good, and boasting is not considered bragging at all.

"Aren't you afraid that I'll get angry if you say that in front of me?" Meng Buqing's face was shining brightly, he couldn't help but squinted his eyes, frowned angrily, "It's all okay, so what's not okay?"

Ji Wan bent her lips and smiled, but didn't speak.

"Is there anything you want to say to me?"

Meng Buqing's tone changed, and he stared at her pointingly.I kind of want to break her silence, I want to see her blushing and stammering face after he broke her pseudonym.

"what?"

Ji Wan was startled, thinking about her words.

Didn't know what she wanted to hear.

"It's nothing," Meng Buqing thought again, bent his eyes, his fair face was still facing the sun, and said with a smile, "I just want to tell you that I like you so much."
