Chapter 1716: Reversal
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Everyone had the right to pursue love, but the actions of the mistress in the video were despicable.
She had s.n.a.t.c.hed the fiancé from the original wife and had bullied the original wife and her best friend in public. However, the original wife was extremely magnanimous and did not take revenge on the mistress after being hurt and wronged.
A simple surveillance video showed the difference between the original wife and the mistress.
How could a shrew-like vixen become the Princess Consort of the royal family?
The netizens were filled with righteous indignation and wanted the mistress to leave their King immediately.
There were many comments that were scolding her on the internet.
Not too long later, Lou Lan made a post on Weibo.
“I only suffered a small injury. It’s nothing serious. Thank you for your concern. We should respect everyone’s choice.”
When Lou Lan posted this on Weibo, it caused a b.l.o.o.d.y battle.
When Lou Lan and Long Ming were engaged, there had been many fans of the couple. After they broke off their engagement, many of the couple fans no longer believed in love between prestigious and wealthy families.
A few days ago, it had been revealed that Long Ming had a new lover. The fans were biased toward Lou Lan, believing that it was that woman who had seduced Long Ming, ruining the couple in their hearts.
With the news today, the fans hated Xiao Ying even more. Every one of them seemed to have been injected with stimulants as they talked about all sorts of things that portrayed Xiao Ying in a negative light.
There was even a topic that demanded Xiao Ying to get out of the royal family and Burma.
There were also those who were extreme in their actions and put up banners and organized a protest in the CBD center.
Xiao Ying was working at the branch office in the afternoon and she had seen all the news online.
It was expected.
From the moment Lou Lan had pretended to fall and hit her head so hard, she had already known that Lou Lan was up to no good.
If Lou Lan had been the one who had sent the recording yesterday, then she must have heard that Long Ming would not marry her. Lou Lan must be feeling smug in her heart. Without Long Ming’s support, she could slander and frame her as she pleased.
The edit of the surveillance footage was obviously one-sided. Lou Lan and her best friend had become the victims while Xiao Ying had become an unforgivable sinner.
Her colleagues in the company had also seen the news.
But they believed in Xiao Ying’s character and no one gossiped about her.
Sister Wen called Xiao Ying to her office.
Ever since Xiao Ying had gotten together with Long Ming, her life had never been peaceful.
However, with Long Ming’s n.o.ble status, his every action was naturally watched by everyone.
“Sister Ying, there are many people blocking your way downstairs. They’re holding up banners and are waiting to come at you menacingly. Don’t leave via the company’s main door after work. Go to the bas.e.m.e.nt and take my car.”
Xiao Ying nodded.
“Sister Ying, I believe in you just like my colleagues in the company. However, have you thought of any solution for this matter? If you let this negative news continue to spread, it will have a very bad impact on you.”
“If you want to marry into the royal family in the future, it will be hard for you to move forward without the support of the people!”
Xiao Ying looked at Sister Wen, who was worried and concerned about her, and said with a smile, “Sister Wen, don’t worry. I’ll settle this matter. It’s just that I need to wait now…”
Sister Wen wanted to ask Xiao Ying what she was waiting for, but she was afraid that asking too much would make Xiao Ying unhappy, so she said nothing more.
In Sister Wen’s office, Xiao Ying continued to work.
When it was almost time to get off work, Xiao Ying headed to the washroom.
When she came out of the cubicle and was was.h.i.+ng her hands, the bespectacled girl came over.
Seeing Xiao Ying, the young girl lowered her head. “Miss Tang, I’m sorry that I’m only coming forward now.”
The young girl handed a thumb drive to Xiao Ying. “I took photos of you guys arguing. Also, I’ve thought it through. Even if I’m fired and they create trouble for me, I want to make things right.”
Xiao Ying took the thumb drive and looked at the girl, a smile on her lips. “I’m already very happy that you gave me the video you took. Don’t say anything and don’t admit that you took the video. If they take revenge and cause you to lose your job, you can come and look for me any time.”
The girl’s eyes lit up. “Really?”
Xiao Ying nodded.
…
Back in the office, Xiao Ying saw the photos that the young girl had secretly taken. She did not edit anything and called Long Ming’s butler, asking him to send it to the influential media and VIPs.
When it was time to get off work, Xiao Ying did not leave immediately. She called the nanny, who went to fetch Wan Bao from school.
Today, she had become a hot topic again. If she went to fetch Wan Bao, something might happen, so she might as well not turn up at all.
The butler was efficient and within half an hour, the video the young girl had secretly recorded appeared on Weibo.
That video had not been edited at all, restoring what had truly happened.
However, there was no recording of Xiao Ying flicking the marble to Li Yuan’s feet.
From Li Yuan’s fall to Xiao Ying being questioned, Lou Lan and her pouring out the things in their bags, Lou Lan finding the marbles in her bag, Lou Lan complaining about Xiao Ying, and the self-directed act of being pushed and injured all appeared clearly in the video.
The surveillance footage sent by Lou Lan was silent. It was only through editing that Lou Lan and Li Yuan looked like the victims.
However, the video had not been edited and neither had it been muted.
What Lou Lan and Li Yuan had said and what Xiao Ying had said could all be clearly heard.
From beginning to the end, Xiao Ying had not said much. It was always Lou Lan and Li Yuan talking.
Anyone with a brain would be able to tell that Lou Lan had put in a lot of effort to act out the scene of her being hurt by the mistress in order to gain the sympathy of the public.
In the video, Lou Lan was the first to raise her hand. In order to avoid Lou Lan’s slap, Xiao Ying had taken a step back. She had not even touched Lou Lan’s finger.
After watching the entire video, Lou Lan and Long Ming’s fans exploded in order to protect Lou Lan, claiming that the video was fake.
In the end, a professional netizen a.n.a.lyzed both videos and found that Lou Lan’s video had been edited. There had been no changes to the video that had been posted later.
This reversal came too quickly.
The curses directed at Xiao Ying on the internet started to change.
Some netizens started to pity Xiao Ying.
“Just because she was liked by the King, she was framed. If someone didn’t secretly take a complete video, wouldn’t she have been maligned?”
“Indeed, the explosive power of the internet is too scary. People say that she’s a vixen and evil just because she’s pretty, but she didn’t do anything. What did she do wrong?”
…
In the Lou family.
Lou Lan had been paying attention to today’s news.
Seeing Xiao Ying being attacked by the netizens, who were demanding that she get her out of the royal family and Burma, she was elated.
However, she didn’t even have hours to enjoy herself. The moment the full video was exposed, her mood fell to rock bottom!
