With the words of Ling Tianya, the room became chaotic. In everyone’s eyes, Shan Feifei was now a helpless little flower who could face the destruction of the big wolf Ling Tianya any moment.
Ling Tianya sat there indifferently, pointing to Zhang Ke who was just off the stage. “My assistant has a surveillance video of that day’s bullying incident. Please take a look.”
“I am finished,” thought Shan Feifei upon hearing this.
“Whatever I say won’t be as direct as showing the truth of the day to everyone.” Zhang Ke handed the thumb drive to a staff member, who hit a few keys on the computer and an instant later, that day’s video was playing on the big screen.
The reporters pointed their cameras at the big screen and waited for the thing Ling Tianya wanted them to see.
When the surveillance video showed that Shan Feifei deliberately stretched out her leg and tripped the unguarded Guan Meiyi, the reporters all fell into silence. The expressions on their faces also became strange and complicated.
Then the reporters saw that Guan Meiyi lay on the ground for a long time, and Shan Feifei who stood on one side suddenly burst into tears, and they began to frown.
Wasn’t this a typical case of the bully blaming the victim?
Guan Meiyi had her head down and was focused on picking up her things, not wanting to argue with Shan Feifei. Yet Shan Feifei did not want to give up and stopped Guan Meiyi from leaving.
“How could Shan Feifei do such a thing? Wasn’t this ridiculous?”
“Yeah, Guan Meiyi was just walking and she tripped her!”
“That fall of Guan Meiyi looked so serious. It felt painful just watching it. She couldn’t stand up for a long time.”
“What made it worse was that Shan Feifei blamed the victim. Was she trying to buy people’s sympathy?”
The surveillance video was half-way through and some reporters had already begun to talk about it.
Because of their proximity, Shan Feifei could hear everything that they said. Her face turned blue and pale, and she did not dare to look at the faces of the reporters who were on her side just a moment ago.
The surveillance video played on, and Shan Feifei urged the people who were in the hall at the time and did not know the truth to condemn Guan Meiyi together. Those people surrounded Guan Meiyi, yelling some unknowable words at her.
Guan Meiyi started to feel scared and panicked. From the video, one could see how helpless she had been.
However, Shan Feifei not only did not stop her bullying behavior, she intensified it. She would not let Guan Meiyi leave.
Then, Ling Tianya appeared and seemed to be asking what happened. Guan Meiyi said something to hear, which seemed to be an account of what had happened.
The next thing in the video was what was spread on Weibo, Ling Tianya stepping on the foot of Shan Feifei.
The surveillance video ended there, and the reporters were flabbergasted.
“That was what happened! Shan Feifei was so deceitful!”
“It made me mad just watching it. If I was Ling Tianya, I would have done the same to Shan Feifei. She was so bad!”
“That’s right. Besides, Miss Guan is Ms. Ling’s cousin. She was standing up for her cousin, which was understandable…”
At this moment, public opinion started to sway towards Guan Meiyi and Ling Tianya.
Sympathy for the weak was a common trait of human beings. Earlier, everyone thought that Shan Feifei was vulnerable because Ling Tianya had appeared very strong from the beginning.
But in the surveillance video, Guan Meiyi was obviously the vulnerable one. At the time, Shan Feifei probably did not know that Ling Tianya was her big boss. So, she didn’t care about Ling Tianya, and she definitely didn’t care about the notorious Guan Meiyi.
