[F*ck me, suicide!!]

[????]

[And how is she now?]

[My friend stays in the same small district as her, it seems the injury is serious, she was unconscious when she was taken away.]

[Oh god… I feel terrible suddenly, don’t know why…]

[Same, although I don’t like Zhang Lingling, suddenly my hands and legs are icy and I feel like crying.]

[Pray she’ll be fine, pray she’ll be fine! ]

[So it looks like she was telling the truth? One shouldn’t take one’s own life lightly, what did Luo Qiao do to her!!!]

[Does Luo Qiao think that she can do as she likes just because her family’s wealthy? She’s pushed the girl to the brink of death, what an evil woman!]

[Evil woman Luo Qiao come out and meet your death @Luo Qiao]

[Don’t be like this, everyone, we don’t even know what exactly happened, let’s hope Zhang Lingling will be fine.]

[Person above, don’t play the saint. If this really was Luo Qiao’s fault, I’ll rip her apart! She thinks she’s so great just because netizens have a few good words for her recently?]

[Rip her apart +1]

…

It was only an hour later that Zhang Lingling’s office finally issued a statement: Fortunately she’s okay.

The statement couldn’t be simpler, yet it was inexplicably poignant.

At the same time, it stirred much anger among the netizens. Indeed, fortunately, she was okay. But what had Luo Qiao done that almost pushed this girl to a dead end?

Caught off-guard, Luo Qiao had suddenly become the target of the netizens. Her Weibo was quickly attacked. The comments praising her beauty only the day before were quickly buried under an avalanche of insults.

Luo Qiao, who had never had good PR to begin with, had now become the target of the netizens’ flames and angry ranting. By the time work ended for the day, even the people in the office had come to know of this matter and were secretly throwing glances at her.

By then, Luo Qiao got a call from an extremely anxious Mu Lan, whom she then had to comfort. After she hung up the call, she calmly posted a Weibo message.

Luo Qiao V: “It has nothing to do with me.”

After posting this message, she logged out and did not bother to look at the comments. However on the same night, around midnight, a marketing account suddenly released a gif file. It caused a wave of big commotion throughout the internet.

The gif file showed Zhang Lingling giving herself a vicious slap on the face, it looked like she was trying to ask for forgiveness.

Understanding the netizen’s psychology, the marketing account did not release the full evidence. Instead, they waited till 8 am of the following morning when this news had hit a high note with full coverage. At this point, they released another two photographs.

One was of Zhang Lingling wearing her bustier tight-fitting dress fallen on the ground, in an embarrassing position and awkwardly exposed, the other was of Luo Qiao pushing her, an icy expression hung on her face.

The two photographs were a perfect illustration of bullying and intimidation tactics.

This caused an uproar amongst the netizens.

[This is too much! One really can’t tell that Luo Qiao is like this, to hell with her!]

[Making others slap themselves, that’s really shaming others. Zhang Lingling is a popular starlet furthermore. I wouldn’t have been able to take it too.]

[When is Luo Qiao going to die? @Luo Qiao]

[I’m so angry I’m shaking. If it weren’t for the proof, wouldn’t her true colors be forever hidden?]

[So what if she has money? Boycott Luo Qiao! Boycott Luo Qiao!]

More and more people joined in this condemnation of Luo Qiao, and what was far worse was that the two photographs angered the feminists.

They were all women, did she need to go to this extreme? Was she happy letting men ogle at Zhang Lingling in such a state? She had no awareness of a woman’s helplessness and fear in that sort of situation and did not show the slightest compassion! This woman was pure evil!
