Chapter 141 - Kneel Before This Young Lady
Luo Chenxi was dumbfounded.
“Famous? What do you mean?”
Fang Ziqian replied, “Didn’t you scroll through Weibo at all? You really are pretty amazing, huh? After getting slandered by Wu Lingshan yesterday, not only did Chief Sheng clear your name, even Director Yu from Bao Shi Jewelry and T City’s public security spoke up for you. Tsk, tsk, seems like Wu Lingshan isn’t climbing out of this pit of humiliation this time!”
Luo Chenxi was confused by what Fang Ziqian said, but she had now completely woken up.
“What exactly happened?”
“Enough chatter, go to Weibo and see for yourself!”
Luo Chenxi sat up from the bed and scrolled through Weibo.
#Huafeng Competition Theft# was still among the top three in trending topics.
However, the related Weibo post below was no longer the one posted by Wu Lingshan.
@Bao Shi Jewelry Yu Keqin: “In response to the recent pictures of a Bao Shi’s global limited edition jewelry that have been circulating online, we would like to clarify that—@Wu Lingshan’s diamond bracelet is not a product made by Bao Shi Jewelry, but a replica of the same scale. In regard to Miss Wu’s serious infringement, Bao Shi Jewelry reserves the right to resolve the matter through legal means.”
@T City Public Security Online: “The public security bureau of T City has received a report from the headquarters of SL Corporation yesterday and completed an investigation on the case. In regard to the case, the public security bureau has arrested the involved suspect—Wu (Female, 23 years old) and Zuo (Female, 22 years old).”
“The public security bureau asks that the people of T City remain calm. Please refrain from misbelieving and spreading false rumors. All information shall be based off official announcements as the matter resolves.”
These two Weibo posts were released last night, not long after she returned home from the competition.
However, Luo Chenxi had her hands full with coaxing the cute little dumpling to sleep and the prideful young master to eat. Then, she went to sleep right after that, so she completely had no idea about the latest Weibo posts.
Luo Chenxi scrolled down and found out that there were already tens of thousands of comments under these two Weibo posts.
That was way more replies received than that of the Weibo post Wu Lingshan posted yesterday.
Many onlookers who were originally indifferent to Wu Lingshan were also attracted by the twists and turns of events. The netizens started going Sherlock Holmes on analyzing and deducing the information revealed in these two Weibo posts.
“Wu Lingshan’s bracelet is a replica? How could this happen? Didn’t she say that it was the limited edition, only one in the world bracelet? She even posted so many pictures of it to show off her wealth back when she bought it! Who would’ve thought it’s just a replica? What a disgrace!”
“I don’t know who this Zuo is, but Wu… should be Wu Lingshan, right? Wasn’t she the one who called out the theft? Why was she the one arrested instead?”
“Pretty sure this is as obvious as it gets. Wu Lingshan tried using a replica to frame the crime on someone, but her intentions were exposed by our dear police officers, that’s why she ended up behind bars!”
“No way! Why would she do that?”
“Why else would it be? Jealousy, of course! My sister’s boyfriend’s uncle’s nephew’s classmate works at SL Corporation. It’s said that Miss Xing Chen won first place in the Huafeng Competition and stole Wu Lingshan’s limelight. The entire series of events mentioned above happened right afterward!”
As more SL Corporation employees swarmed in to reveal more information, the truth was gradually brought to light.
Wu Lingshan social status was reduced to a street rat in an instant as she got flamed to oblivion by the majority of netizens.
Aside from Wu Lingshan’s increasing notoriety, Luo Chenxi’s popularity on the other hand skyrocketed.
Luo Chenxi’s alternate account which originally had only a few hundred fans, instantly hit the 500,000 threshold overnight. The number was even increasing at a frightening rate of tens of thousands per hour.
This Weibo account was created to help promote the Huafeng Competition, so she had a few designs and pictures of ready-made clothing posted in it some time ago.
At that time, the received replies on her posts were all in single digits, there were close to no one that paid attention to them.
However, after the recent series of events, things were now completely different.
There were countless replies under every picture Luo Chenxi posted.
“Wow, this design is too amazing. Young lady, you’re so talented, it is no wonder you clinched the first place in the semi-finals!”
“It’s so beautiful! If I could get married in this dress, I would have no regrets!”
“I shall kneel before this young lady… A god-like designer…”
