After the forum administrators learned about the post, they deleted the post as soon as possible, but no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't delete it, as if it had been infected by a virus.
Once the post fermented, it got out of control.
Not only did it cause a huge wave at Capital University, but several nearby schools also caught wind of it and joined the farce, frantically trampling at the bottom of the post.
A few hours ago there were still many rational comments on the forum, but now it was filled with nothing but curses and slanders.
Moreover, almost all the comments were from new accounts without real names.
It looked like internet water army.
"Shut up! When I went to Yun City to play with Young Master Huo before the college entrance examination, I saw Sister Ying. She looked like this when she was fat. Her features just grew to look like this now."
"This photo is obviously photoshopped. I'll kill whichever little bastard did this if I catch him."
"Young Master Huo said whoever dares to talk nonsense, he'll rip his mouth off."
"Plastic surgery and liposuction? Qiao Ying used to look like a freak. The school belle? Don't make me laugh. Even your toe is not as good as Qingyu's, Qingyu take a look."
"Alright, whatever you say about others without evidence, just because someone said something you all believe it. Use your brain, ok?" After saying this, Su Qingyu got up and walked away irritably.
"What's wrong with her? Didn't she dislike Qiao Ying a lot?" Several people looked at Su Qingyu, who suddenly lost her temper, puzzled.
Xu Zhiyi: "The forum has been infected with a virus. The post can't be deleted and the forum can't be closed either. I've already gone to find a professional technician."
Seeing his anxious grandson, Zhang Chengyong said calmly: "Don't worry, trust that Miss Qiao has a way to deal with this."
Xu Zhiyi: "Now that things have fermented to this point, no matter how eloquent she is, no one is willing to listen. Those people only choose to believe what they see. Most of the time, they don't judge, only follow blindly and pile on with the mentality of having fun. Even if she produces evidence, it’s hard to shut the babbling mouths. Rumors are terrible, this is how online violence comes about."
"Miss Qiao must have seen a lot of the world and is mentally more stable than this old man. She's not a little girl who cries when something happens like you imagine. Moreover, she said computing is her forte. I think there's no need to find your technician either."
Zhang Chengyong went on, "It's always people with talent who attract envy unfortunately. I just hope it wasn't our school's students who did this."
Xu Zhiyi found several classmates from the same department and studied it, discovering that the other party's skills were slightly better than theirs.
"Quick, look at the forum! The heartthrob of the Finance Department, Xu Mingchen, has come out to clarify things for Qiao Ying. Turns out they were high school classmates. Xu Mingchen denied sending a love letter and said Qiao Ying used to be fat but lost weight little by little, and her grades also improved at that time. There was no plastic surgery or liposuction."
"So this heartthrob was the school hunk that got the love letter? He's got guts to stand up for Qiao Ying at this time."
"What guts, I reckon he just likes her."
"Doesn't this explain even better that Qiao Ying improved bit by bit? If she really got plastic surgery and was kept by an old man, would Xu Mingchen be stupid enough to like that kind of girl?"
"Right. Didn't Qiao Ying's younger brother come to our school last time? How could that looks be fake? Why didn't the two siblings get surgery together?"
"Wow, I could believe everything else, but suddenly going from a failing student to a math genius? That's like suddenly gaining wisdom."
There were still many rational people in real life, but the forum was beyond saving now, completely occupied by internet water army.
"F*ck! Whichever son of a b*tch's toilet is clogged at home and ran to the forum to spew sh*t, I'm gonna skin him if I catch him." Huo Chengdong's kidneys hurt from anger. "Sister Ying, you're not angry at all?"
"Is it worth it for this little thing?" Qiao Ying walked slowly with her hands in her pockets towards the classroom building.
Everyone looked at her with different expressions along the way.
"They've slandered you to such an extent. The curses on the forum are so nasty! Let's go find the principal." Huo Chengdong said.
Qiao Ying: "And ask him to make an announcement?"
Realizing that this was not a matter that could be clarified just by the school and the person involved speaking up to restore her reputation, Huo Chengdong annoyingly asked some of his underlings: "Didn't I tell you to find two technicians? Where are they?"
Before the underlings could reply,
Qiao Ying said: "No need to go through all that trouble, I'll do it myself."
Huo Chengdong: "Sister Ying, don't fool around. You only studied computing for a little over a month. I bet you still can't even figure out PPT. The other party clearly has skills. They've gained control of the forum already. We still need to find professionals for this."
As he spoke, they arrived at the classroom with several people following Qiao Ying.
Before they entered the classroom, a male student quickly stepped in front of them and stopped Qiao Ying.
It was Xu Mingchen.
"Qiao Ying, my clarification post was deleted. I found a skilled junior from your department to help post another clarification for you. Also, I've contacted some high school classmates to help come out and clarify things for you."
Qiao Ying glanced at him and walked right past him: "No need."
"Qiao Ying." Xu Mingchen tried to stop her again.
"Who the hell are you?" Huo Chengdong blocked the hand Xu Mingchen stretched out. "My Sister Ying said no need. Can't you understand that?"
Xu Mingchen snatched his hand back from Huo Chengdong's grip.
"Hey, seem like you got quite the beef with me huh? My man, I got no time to play with you right now, shoo!" Huo Chengdong wanted to fling him aside but Xu Mingchen tangled with him.
"Young Master Huo, Young Master Huo, let me handle it, don't get angry." Yiben Zhong, who had run over from the back of the line, forcibly pulled Xu Mingchen away.
Upon finding out about Qiao Ying's matter in the neighboring school, Feng Wenzhong specially ran over to see if he could help testify or something.
Feng Wenzhong pulled Xu Mingchen out of the teaching building.
"She liked you when she was still fat, but you felt you were too good for her. Now that she has slimmed down, you regret it?"
Xu Mingchen's face was a little ugly: "I don't."
Feng Wenzhong: "It's useless even if you regret it now. Who's standing by her side now? Young Master Huo. What kind of status is Young Master Huo? He's not from our world. Just give up. At least she used to like you before. Be content. In this capital city full of influential figures, it's better not to do things beyond your capabilities and get into unnecessary trouble with people you shouldn't mess with. Next time you may not have such good luck."
Qiao Ying returned to the classroom and took out her laptop.
Seven or eight heads crowded around to watch her closely.
Huo Chengdong: "Sister Ying, what are you doing?"
Qiao Ying: "Finding someone."
Huo Chengdong: "Finding who?"
Underling: "Finding the poster."
Huo Chengdong raised his hand and hit him. "Oh so you think you're so smart huh?"
"Holy sh*t! Young Master Huo come look quick!" Several underlings stared at Qiao Ying's laptop screen and suddenly became agitated.
Huo Chengdong looked back: "What the...?"
Huo Chengdong looked at the screen full of all kinds of codes, then looked at Qiao Ying and asked, "Sister Ying, do you have some other occupation?"
Qiao Ying calmly said, "Found him. Computer Science building, male dorm building C, third floor, room 305."
Huo Chengdong stared at the flashing red dot on the screen and exclaimed in astonishment, "That fast?!"
His butt hadn't even touched the seat yet. Huo Chengdong was so shocked he couldn't speak. He silently gave Qiao Ying a thumbs up, then left with his people, "F*ck, he's from our school. You guys come with me to catch him."
Her phone vibrated in her pocket. It was Qin Hanyue calling.
Then, during the time Huo Chengdong was catching the guy, the maliciously manipulated forum suddenly popped up another post.
The post forcefully squeezed to the top above the "Qiao Ying's Plastic Surgery" post, conspicuously attracting eyes.
Moreover, the explosiveness of the post contents was no less than the Qiao Ying plastic surgery incident.
The post had no nonsense, only two pictures - the purchase invoice of a black Maybach and the owner information based on license plate number.
It clearly showed the three big words "Qin Hanyue".
