Nian Ueno

Jiang Weixi's response was like a drop of water falling into a hot oil pan, instantly causing an uproar among netizens.

In just one night, she gained 5000 followers.

Of course, without exception, they were all haters.

They're all just waiting to see her get punished.

He Luqi and Luo Meimei also paid attention, and they were very anxious.

"Xixi, why don't you explain the whole story? This is causing everyone to misunderstand..."

Jiang Weixi shook her head: "It's alright, I have my own plans."

What she wanted was a misunderstanding.

The reporters outside would leave at night, but would return precisely on time during the day to stake out the place.

Liu Yuan brought another boy over, and the group took turns guarding the ward.

With so many people watching intently outside, they dared not leave Teacher Wei alone in the room.

No matter what, someone must be with you.

Teacher Wei didn't want to say a word and slept most of the time.

After being comforted and encouraged by Jiang Weixi, Teacher Wei's mood had improved a lot, and she was preparing to take good care of her health so as not to disappoint her students.

However, after being provoked by Wang Xueyao, and after learning that her husband had cheated on her for seven years during their marriage, Ms. Wei fell into depression and found it difficult to recover.

No matter how much everyone tried to comfort her, Teacher Wei kept her eyes closed and pretended to be asleep, remaining silent.

He Luqi and Luo Meimei surrounded Teacher Wei, wanting to say something more.

Jiang Weixi pressed down on their shoulders, put her index finger to her lips, and made a "shh" gesture.

"Let Teacher Wei sleep, don't disturb her."

Jiang Weixi knew how good the relationship between Teacher Wei and her husband used to be, and she could understand that Teacher Wei was having trouble accepting this and would definitely have a hard time getting over it.

He Luqi and Luo Meimei fell silent.

Luo Meimei glanced at the reporters peeking in from outside, a hint of annoyance flashing in her eyes: "What are we going to do about those reporters who keep squatting outside?"

He Luqi: "Should we call the police?"

Liu Yuan: "They were just sitting outside, doing nothing. Calling the police was useless. These reporters know exactly how to exploit loopholes."

Jiang Weixi lowered her eyes and pondered for a moment, mentally going over her thoughts before standing up: "I'll go outside and see what those reporters are up to."

He Luqi grabbed her: "Are you crazy? If we go out now, they'll eat us alive."

Jiang Weixi turned around, smiled, and patted her hand: "Don't worry, they can't eat me."

Jiang Weixi walked over, opened the door a crack, stepped out to the side, and then quickly closed it again.

He Luqi and Luo Meimei stood in the ward, peering out the small window.

When the reporters saw people coming out, they swarmed over.

Seven or eight microphones were thrust at her at the same time, almost shoving them in her face, and flashes went off incessantly.

Surrounded by a group of people, Jiang Weixi instinctively felt uncomfortable, as if the air itself had become thin. She frowned slightly.

"What is your relationship with Teacher Wei?"

"Are you Professor Wei's student?"

"How is Ms. Wei doing now? Has she woken up? Is she available for interviews?"

What is your opinion on the online accusations that teacher Wei sexually assaulted male students?

Do you believe that information is true?

"After being accused of indecent assault, Ms. Wei committed suicide. As her student, do you think it was because she felt guilty, or because she was wronged?"

Every question is like a hook, waiting for her to bite.

Jiang Weixi straightened her back and pinched her palm to keep herself calm.

This interview will be edited into short clips of several tens of seconds and posted online.

Those netizens would analyze her facial expressions and tone frame by frame, and the meaning behind every word.

Jiang Weixi looked directly at the camera, her gaze unwavering, and responded with composure and grace:

"I am Ms. Wei's student. I have known her for three years. She is the gentlest and most responsible teacher I have ever met."

Jiang Weixi spoke calmly, ignoring the reporter's questions, and answered at her own pace: "As for those accusations, I have no right to deny anything on behalf of Teacher Wei, but I choose to believe her."

"Finally..." she said to the viewers of the interview, looking at the camera, "You can continue to criticize if you want, but please do not condemn anyone before the truth comes out."

After saying that, she turned around and went back, quickly closing the door behind her.

The reporter sent the latest findings back to the editorial department.

Soon, her interview went online.

The resourceful netizens quickly discovered a connection between Teacher Wei's incident and the incident of beating a pregnant woman.

[I'm so busy gossiping: I just realized something! This girl looks like the one who beat up the pregnant woman?]

Someone replied below:

What constitutes assaulting a pregnant woman?

The original poster pointed out: @蒹葭苍苍, this is the girl who assaulted a pregnant woman at the hospital and was very arrogant. You can check out her profile and watch her response video.

[Passerby A: So this girl is Teacher Wei's student. This shows that Teacher Wei is indeed morally flawed, and the students she teaches are just as immoral.]

A group of people went to Jiang Weixi's homepage comment section and launched another wave of insults, this time including Teacher Wei.

Some people who saw the news about Jiang Weixi first left comments.

[Passerby B: What's the deal with that Teacher Wei scandal? Why is everyone talking about Teacher Wei?]

Helpful netizens started giving each other directions again.

[Passerby C: This girl speaks so calmly, not flustered at all in front of so many reporters. If I hadn't seen the video of the assault, I almost would have believed her. But she was so arrogant in the video.]

Jiang Weixi ignores all comments made online.

Luo Meimei is a master's student majoring in journalism and media.

Luo Meimei has been organizing all the background information about Teacher Wei's incident recently.

Jiang Weixi told her not to reveal any information to anyone yet.

The two teamed up to collect evidence of Ms. Wei's husband's infidelity.

On the third day, He Luqi went out for an interview. Under Jiang Weixi's instructions, she subtly revealed on camera that Teacher Wei had been provoked by a mistress and ended up in the emergency room...

Meanwhile, more and more of Ms. Wei's former students are coming forward online to support her.

Some of these people spoke out voluntarily, while a large portion of them were bought by Jiang Weixi.

Most netizens are fickle, but gradually many people began to side with Teacher Wei.

So many students are speaking up for Teacher Wei; there might be more to the story.

So far, apart from Zhang Zhao, it seems no one has publicly accused Teacher Wei.

Her husband personally came forward to confirm that those things were true.

But I heard her husband cheated on her?

Online opinion about Teacher Wei is turning around, but the incident of him beating a pregnant woman is still met with widespread condemnation.
