Chapter 705: Fatal Scandal
Soon, even more people stood up and accused Guo Li, Zeng Tianqi, and the others anonymously. They also said that they would go to the police station to file a report. They would definitely not let bad people get away with it and harm other girls.
In the entertainment circle, this kind of thing had already happened a long time ago. Both domestically and overseas, there were countless directors, editors, and musicians who used their power to coerce or entice actresses to have s.e.x with them.
However, not many people stood up when this was exposed. Firstly, they might have really gained benefits from it. Secondly, they did not dare offend them. They were afraid of being banned or cast aside. After this happened, they could only suffer silently.
It was rare to see so many people standing up and accusing a celebrity in the entertainment circle.
The last spontaneous, collective accusation of a woman working in the entertainment circle had happened overseas. A certain big boss had slept with hundreds of women in the past few decades, including actors, models, writers, and a.s.sistants. However, this incident had been left unsettled in the end.
Ling Sheng knew that protecting oneself was the most difficult thing in such situations. Ignoring the existence or absence of evidence, just the saliva of the people cursing you could drown you.
In particular, many social justice warriors on the Internet would criticize you for not being self-respecting and considerate, thereby giving others a chance to bring you down.
However, things were not that simple. There had been alcohol, drugs, and various other factors at play at the dinner. It was not that she had not resisted, and if she had, the sc.u.mbags would not have let her off.
The law also stated that as long as a woman did not consent, it would be considered s.e.xual abuse. When a woman was drunk or unconscious, it would be considered s.e.xual abuse.
Huo Ci had also seen the hara.s.sment on the internet. He frowned slightly with a playful look in his eyes. The only person who could make so many people speak up was Third Master Jun!
There was nothing new under the sun. In the entertainment circle, this kind of thing happened a lot. Many things were so dirty that most people could not even imagine.
Everyone knew this even if they did not talk about it. Most people had already gotten used to it. If a knife did not cut them, they would never feel pain.
Even male celebrities suffered a lot, let alone female celebrities. However, no one stood up to speak unless one did not want to continue developing in the entertainment circle. This kind of thing would be a scandal and a fatal blow for them.
That was why this kind of thing became more and more intense. When those animals attacked, they became increasingly more unrestrained. They were sure that even if this happened, no one would dare do anything.
Since that sc.u.mbag Old Jun had started this, Guo Li and the others were just the beginning. Everyone in the entertainment circle who had done this had to feel insecure now.
When Ling Sheng got home, Su Xiyin and the others were anxious.
Huo Xiao looked at Huo Ci, who was right behind her, and picked up his walking stick in exasperation. “You sc.u.mbag! What’s the point of having you? You can’t even handle such a small matter.”
Look at the scolding online. Even he, Yin’er, and Xiaoqi’s whole family had been scolded. They’d questioned the way he handled things!
“Father, are you crazy?” The moment Huo Ci entered the house, he was slapped hard. He sucked in a breath of cold air in pain and jumped up to run.
Huo Xiao chased after him with his walking stick. “Am I crazy? What did you do? How long has it been since the incident? You useless thing. You let my granddaughter be scolded for so long. I’ll beat you to death today and make you remember this!”
