The news was from three years ago and its headline was &#8220;The man went crazy for love and threatened his parents with jumping off the rooftop of the hospital. He didn&#8217;t give up the idea of committing suicide until his lover arrived.&#8221; The article was basically an expansion of the title, with a photo next to it.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The photo was taken from a distance, and was made up of two photos. In the first photo, a young man was sitting on the railing of a rooftop, with a posture implying he was going to jump off. In the second photo, the young man was helped down from the rooftop by a man. Nearby stood a middle-aged man and woman supporting each other.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The person who issued this report thoughtfully zoomed in on the people in the photos, comparing their features and faces one by one. People could come to the conclusion that the person who was going to jump off the building was Qi Cong, and the one who helped Qi Cong down was Jiang Zhaoyan. The people standing behind them were Qi Yin and Lin Hui.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The mouthful of melon fell and all onlookers were choked.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This\u2026 Qi Cong really threatened Jiang Zhaoyan with suicide?<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Everyone&#8217;s mood suddenly became mixed.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Love was a very beautiful thing, but it was not good to pursue and entangle the person you like in such an extreme way.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Under the revelation of this news, many netizens came forward and cited their own experience of being entangled with such extreme suitors. After reading this article many people said they could not accept it, thinking that if Qi Cong had been\u00a0 threatening Jiang Zhaoyan with suicide, Jiang Zhaoyan was really miserable.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From here on, the public opinion that was previously overwhelmingly supportive of Qi Cong changed. Even some people who previously supported Qi Cong began to waver and some directly backed down.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After this, there were even more materials exposed one after another.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, the fact that Jiang Zhaoyan met Qi Cong after accidentally saving him when he fainted from a high fever. After this, Qi Cong became attached to Jiang Zhaoyan, and even transferred to Jiang Zhaoyan\u2019s school.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The fact that Qi Cong obsessively monitored everything about Jiang Zhaoyan, and meddled in many departments in Yanhuang was also because he was trying to control everything about Jiang Zhaoyan.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also, the reason why Jiang Tian let Qi Cong carry the blame was because Qi Cong once bullied Jiang Tian with his identity of the rich second generation so Jiang Tian hated Qi Cong very much\u2026.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In short, Yanhuang and Jiang Tian pushing blame onto Qi Cong was really not the right thing to do, but this was also caused by many other things. Qi Cong was very abominable and strange and they were unable to get rid of him. Jiang Zhaoyan was entangled with Qi Cong and was badly pestered by him.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are also people who said that Qi Cong only wanted to enter the entertainment industry because Jiang Zhaoyan finally found someone he really liked. However Qi Cong still wanted to have leverage to hurt Jiang Zhaoyan, so he decided to become a star and use the high influence of a celebrity to continue to wreak havoc in Jiang Zhaoyan life.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The evil wind blew time after time, real and false materials came out, one after another. Cruelly tormenting and crushing the thinking and perception of all the people who were eating melons.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finally, a video interview with Jiang Zhaoyan\u2019s mother and Jiang Tian was published on Weibo, successfully changing this evil wind into a tornado.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the interview video, a woman with white hair and plain clothes sat in a farmhouse that had apparently been refurbished in the last two years. Wiping her tears, she spoke in very standard Mandarin: &#8220;I can\u2019t beat people. I couldn\u2019t get used to living in the city so I have been living in the countryside. I haven&#8217;t even seen the boy surnamed Qi so how could I hit him? Zhaoyan did mention him to me, but only said that he saved him by chance and then took that person to do business with him. &#8220;<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;Saving people is a good thing, Zhaoyan did the right thing but\u2026.\u201d The woman wiped her tears again and waved her hand as if she didn&#8217;t know what to say. &#8220;Forget it, Zhaoyan has really been helped by him. I won\u2019t say more, and I won\u2019t tell you more. Please don\u2019t ask, because I have nothing to say.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The reporter repeatedly asked a few questions but the woman remained unwilling to answer. But at the last moment, as if the woman could no longer evade him, she said something. It was almost as if it was a slip of her tongue. \u201cI can\u2019t tell you if I know that boy did something again. How would I explain it to his parents? Really don\u2019t ask anymore, I just hope that Zhaoyan and the person he likes will live well together and no longer have to worry.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After that, the reporter interviewed several villagers. All of them said that Jiang Zhaoyan was a very good person, filial and responsible. After he became a businessman, he built roads in their village and even donated to schools and built nursing homes, taking very good care of villagers.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not long after this interview broke, Jiang Tian, who had been attacked for a day, suddenly updated his Weibo.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He posted a surveillance video, and then angrily added: I admit that I did wrong, I should not be greedy and let Qi Cong take the blame! But you can&#8217;t slander my brother and slander Yanhuang because of this! Please don&#8217;t harass my cousin and family, they are just honest farmers! Look at this and see how Qi Cong hunted my Elder Brother. He isn\u2019t a poor victim like everyone thinks he is. He is a complete and utter lunatic!<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The surveillance video showed a scene outside the gate of a house, divided into several sections.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first segment was dated March 5, 19XX, 11:00 p.m. A figure came out from the elevator entrance, went to the door and rang the doorbell. When no one answered it wandered around a few times, and then squatted at the door.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The second video was dated May 8, 19XX, at 10:00 p.m. A figure came out from the elevator entrance, went to the door and rang the doorbell. When no one answered, the figure started to wander around the door.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The third video was dated August 17, 19XX, just after 1:00 am. A figure came out from the elevator entrance side, went to the door and rang the doorbell, no one answered, so then he tried calling. When no one answered, the figure wandered around the door.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The fourth video &#8230;&#8230; the eleventh video was dated April 7, 2020, 3:00 a.m. A figure from the elevator entrance side trotted out, banged on the door and pressed the doorbell hard for a long time.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jiang Tian added in the comments section: This is only part of it. Qi Cong has done far more crazy things than this! Because of him, Brother Jiang has been afraid to fall in love and only dared to hide his favorite person for a long time. To be honest, our Jiang Family hates Qi Cong. I hope he dies early! Think about it, if your big brother was hunted by such a madman and had his life, career and everything else monitored while being harassed and taken hostage wouldn\u2019t you also hate him? Wouldn\u2019t you also hope that this person becomes unlucky and dies?<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Weibo exploded. Countless people expressed how creepy the situation was and remarks attacking Qi Cong gradually covered the previous remarks that supported him and condemned Jiang Zhaoyan.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2026\u2026.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During the ups and downs on the Internet, Qi Cong methodically sorted out the four-chapter manuscript of \u201cChivalrous Bones\u201d that he wrote in the morning. Then he wrote short biographies of his characters and practiced his new song.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After Shen Jia finished work and returned to the hotel in the evening, Qi Cong insisted on going to an acting class with him and behaved as usual. After the lesson was over he also pacified Shen Jia, who was very worried and hesitant.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shen Jia was very upset. &#8220;Brother, I regret it so much\u2026 maybe I shouldn\u2019t have dragged you into this circle?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;It&#8217;s not your fault.\u201d Qi Cong patted Shen Jia. \u201cIt\u2019s okay, believe in Brother Zhao. It\u2019ll all work out.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shen Jia bowed his head, his emotions visible to the naked eye.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zhao Zhenxun, who returned from making a phone call, swept a glance at the two men and said, \u201cQi Cong, I asked Master Cao Dewen to make an appointment for you. The title of the song is &#8220;A New Life&#8221;. The song isn\u2019t difficult and even easy to sing with your timbre. It can be said to be tailor made for you. After this incident, I will create a Weibo for you and you can use your Weibo to post this song. &#8220;<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Qi Cong and Shen Jia looked at Zhao Zhenxun in unison.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;Hold on a little longer, we&#8217;re on the right track.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Qi Cong was quiet for a few seconds and then looked sideways at Shen Jia and smiled. \u201cJia Jia, look, just like I said, we should trust in Brother Zhao.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2026&#8230;<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>Edited by: Antiope1<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Support translation:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/bePatron?u=25191841\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"217\" height=\"51\" class=\"wp-image-338 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ontimestory.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/become_a_patron_button.png?resize=217%2C51\" alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 217px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 217\/51;\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ko-fi.com\/lajnaa\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ontimestory.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/kofi3-3.png?resize=185%2C47\" alt=\"This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is kofi3-3.png\" width=\"185\" height=\"47\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 185px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 185\/47;\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\r\n\r\n<p><!--EndFragment--><\/p>\r\n<p><!--EndFragment--><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It was a news article published in a local network news channel in Haicheng.
