The next day!
A video appeared on the Internet.
At first, it was only circulated on a small website but then, as if it had been promoted by a pair of bland hands, it went on Weibo’s trending list in an instant.
‘Shanghai’s Cloud Street, two young ladies got beat up by a man.’
This news had an interesting title and it drew the attention of countless men, especially because, intentionally or not, there were photos of the two girls.
They looked as pretty as flowers.
They drew many people’s eyes.
Instantly, masses of males became infuriated.
“F*ck, is he even human? He can even hit such beautiful women. If I find him, I would beat that guy to death.”
“Look at all those surrounding men who only know how to watch. Do they not know how to go up and help?”
“F*ck, if I were there, I would definitely step in and help. Two beautiful ladies were bullied. This is really despicable.”
“He’s a dog. He even hits ladies. That’s unmanly of him.”
“Who the heck is this guy? Someone, hurry up and track him down. We’ll teach him a lesson.
The masses of female netizens were infuriated as well.
“Although the video is only ten seconds, I really can’t bear to watch it. So many men were around but not a single one stepped in to stop it.”
“No matter what, he should not hit a lady.”
“He is not fit to be a man. I hope he stays single for life.”
…
This piece of news caused a huge impact on the Internet. Many netizens had seen it but the video was only ten seconds and it only showed the man hitting the two ladies, especially that slap. It was a very heavy slap that could be heard clearly in the video.
Countless males felt their hearts ache. Such beautiful little sisters had been hit. Was that guy even human?
If the girls looked average, they would forget about it. However, such beautiful ladies should be taken care of. How could he hit them?
Cloud Street.
Lin Fan laid there, wondering why those two girls hadn’t called anyone over to deal with him yet. His life was quite boring and he had been hoping to add some excitement.
Zhao Zhong Yang cried out in shock, “It’s not good, Brother Lin. Something has happened.”
Lin Fan said dispiritedly, “What has happened? What’s the big deal?”
“Look, someone cut the video and posted the part where you hit them on the Internet. Now, it’s even trending. Countless people are attacking you and they even want to track you down,” Zhao Zhong Yang said as he handed over the phone.
Fraud Tian and Wu You Lan came over as well. When they saw the video, they were stunned.
Wu You Lan said furiously, “How can these people be like this? This video clearly has been cut. It wasn’t like this at all.”
Fraud Tian pondered for a moment, then said, “It looks to me that someone definitely did this on purpose.”
Lin Fan seemed to not be bothered. “They can scold me if they want. That’s very lame.”
Zhao Zhong Yang said anxiously, “Brother Lin, do you not care at all? This matter has to do with your reputation. If you don’t clarify things and the netizens find out that it’s you, then it would be too late.”
Lin Fan waved his hand. “It’s no big deal. I can’t live according to the assessment of others. Their assessments are their own. They don’t hurt me one bit. It’s not an issue.”
“Brother Lin is truly Brother Lin. He isn’t even bothered by this,” said Zhao Zhong Yang with a sigh. He had to respect Lin Fan’s decision.
Wu You Lan still felt a little unhappy, “How can they be like this?”
In a certain place.
The two girls who had been taught a lesson by Lin Fan the previous day were looking at the news on the Internet. Cold smiles appeared on their faces. Since he had dared to hit them, they had to make him pay.
Their friend was an expert in Internet operations. At that moment, he asked curiously, “Why don’t you bring people to settle things with him?”
The taller girl laughed coldly, “Settling things with him would be too easy. I want to humiliate him and let the people on the Internet scold him.”
The shorter girl added, “That’s right. We want the people on the Internet to scold him.”
“It’s almost time to go public with this frontal photo of him. Once we show this photo to the public, he’ll definitely be found by people. Then, it will be time for him to receive his punishment.
…
On Weibo.
A post appeared.
“The photo of the person who hit the girls has emerged. Everyone must let him know how bad of a mistake it is to hit girls.”
Once the photo was posted, it was instantly reposted by countless people.
“D*mn, the person has been found. I’m from Shanghai so I have to go and see just what gave him the confidence to dare to hit girls.”
“Motherf*cker, I have to kill this guy.”
“Dog! He looks just like a dog!”
Suddenly, the situation changed a little.
“Everyone, wait a moment. Why does the person in this photo look so much like someone else?”
“Hey, that’s true. D*mn, this is Master Lin.”
“What? The person who hit them is Master Lin?”
“Stop scolding, everyone, stop scolding him. We can’t scold this man. This is Master Lin. we absolutely mustn’t scold him.”
“D*mn I scolded him so many times previously, what should I do? Master Lin is my idol! I f*cking scolded my own idol. This is f*cked up.”
“Everyone, don’t be carried away. Although Master Lin hit them, we don’t know the full story. According to what we know, Master Lin is a man with a sense of justice. How could he hit girls for no reason?”
“I know, it must have been because these two girls deserved to be hit. That’s why Master Lin did it to teach them a lesson.”
“I’m just speculating but these two girls definitely did something outrageous.”
“That makes a lot of sense.”
…
When the two girls saw the situation on the Internet, they were instantly dumbfounded. It was as if they didn’t dare to believe it. Those netizens who had just been scolding him so fiercely suddenly stopped. They actually started to come up with excuses for Master Lin. this made them anxious.
The shorter girl asked with puzzlement, “Who is this Master Lin?”
“I don’t know either.”
However, that Internet operations expert was shocked. “D*mn, the person who hit you was Master Lin and you still wanted to get support from the Internet? You’re asking for your own death! Do you know just how terrifying that Master Lin’s fans are? Moreover, Master Lin’s reputation isn’t something you can taint so easily.”
“But he really hit us.”
“Then what exactly happened? Why did Master Lin hit you all?”
“We…we…” They didn’t know how to reply. They pondered for a moment and felt that that situation wasn’t right as well. They had been too inhumane with their words.
The operations expert looked at the screen. Suddenly, he saw a video. “Look, is that you?”
The two girls came over hastily but when they saw the video, they were dumbfounded. “How…”
The Internet was a mystical place. Suddenly, the truth had appeared.
A video had appeared on Weibo and was instantly spread everywhere.
The title was: ‘The truth of Cloud Street’
Masses of netizens opened the videos out of curiosity but when they watched the whole thing, they were completely infuriated.
“F*ck! We’ve been manipulated.”
“These two ladies are too disgusting. They actually said things like that.”
“Your mom! So what if she’s a sanitation Auntie? How could you humiliate her like that?”
“Master Lin was right to hit them. If it was me, I would hit them as well. They f*cking deserved to be hit.”
“I dislike it when men hit women but after seeing this video, I have to applaud. That was a good hit. This kind of people deserves to be hit at the very least.”
“Search for these two girls’ identities. They’re too f*cking disgusting.”
At that moment, a movie-like turn of events had occurred.
Lin Fan had been typing on his phone but when he saw this video, he slowly stopped. Then, he understood. This kind of small matter didn’t require him to personally do anything.
Although it is said that the truth always comes out too late, this wasn’t too late at all
