Lin Yu Tong was awaken by the noise of a ringtone. He was in a rush all night to finish his manuscript, and an hour had not even passed yet after he had fallen asleep with the setting of the sun. If it weren’t because the number on the frantic ringing cell phone belonged to an important person he knew, or he would have directly hung up instead of answering it.

“Hello? Who is this?”

“This is Lao Ye, what’s wrong with your new book? Right now, someone’s accusing you of plagiarism!”

“What plagiarism?” Lin Yu Tong became silent for a moment, then suddenly sobered up, “Are you saying that I plagiarized?”

“Yes, plagiarism, but it’s not me who’s saying it, someone else is! Quickly go online and check it out, then contact me as soon as possible!” His editor, Ye Ming Chong’s tone on the phone sounded very anxious, like he couldn’t wait to kill him, and then immediately hang up.

Lin Yu Tong hurriedly turned on the computer and looked at the forums, sure enough, the post that he had plagiarized was pinned on top, and the amount of response was quite alarming. The poster used a color palette to mark all the places where the two literary works had a similar description or settings. At first glance, the countless places written were almost exactly the same, just like, as if someone deliberately plucked it accordingly from a template that was on top.

But how was this possible?

After reading the post Lin Yu Tong immediately picked up the phone and gave Ye Ming Chong a call, all the while forcing himself to calm down, “Lao Ye, I don’t know how this happened, but I absolutely did not plagiarize, I even have the evidence to prove that I have my own draft.  I just need to…” Then he paused, and Lin Yu Tong who had opened a folder in his laptop suddenly stopped talking.

The place where the character set up and document outline were originally located was now empty, not even a hair strand could be seen.

Ye Ming Chong sensed something unusual, and quickly asked: “Tong-zi, what’s wrong?”

Lin Yu Tong self-mockingly smiled and said: “It’s nothing, I’ll contact you later.”

At this point if he still didn’t know that someone wanted to discredit him, he would be really stupid. But it didn’t matter, even if the soft copy of his manuscript was gone, he still had other things that could prove his innocence.

Lin Yu Tong thought about how anxious Ye Ming Chong was, so he didn’t even care about washing his face, and hurriedly went out to find Shen Jun. Shen Jun was his lover, at the same time he was also a famous actor. Although his popularity wasn’t particularly high, he was still well-known. They used to live together, but later, considering how troublesome the paparazzi were in addition to how busy he was in catching up with his manuscript for the past six months, Shen Jun suggested that they live separately for a while, he thought about it and since they wouldn’t be able to see each other for a while anyway, he finally agreed.

Shen Jun had a copy of his manuscript and back-up of all his drafts. Originally, he was the one who kept all his manuscript, but one time when he unintentionally mentioned that these manuscripts were like his children because it was created by him, Shen Jun took his manuscript, and said that since it was his children, it was also Shen Jun's, so they had a duty to take care of them.
