Chapter 298 - 215: Has Hao Manman Got Her Retribution?

Chapter 298: Chapter 215: Has Hao Manman Got Her Retribution?

Although Jiang Ning’s purpose in coming to Q City was to arrest Hao Manman, she hadn’t planned on watching her around the clock.

Knowing that Hao Manman had been taken to the hospital by ambulance and immediately entered the emergency room, Jiang Ning searched online for nearby attractions and took Qi Xingzhou with her to check in and experience them.

Having been recognized on the street before, Jiang Ning didn’t know whether her current popularity had faded, but to be on the safe side, she and Qi Xingzhou dressed in full gear, both wearing hats and masks.

With influenza running rampant recently, many people chose to wear masks when going out, so their fully equipped attire didn’t stand out in the crowd at all.

However, there were still quite a few passersby who, when noticing the extraordinary aura of Jiang Ning or Qi Xingzhou, had their eyes light up momentarily, only to have the little blossoms of love that had just begun to bloom in their hearts wither instantly upon realizing that the person was not alone but accompanied by someone else. The idea of approaching to ask for a WeChat ID was immediately dismissed.

It wasn’t until after strolling outside, having eaten and drunk their fill, and returning to the hotel for a rest that Jiang Ning took out her phone to seriously check the news online.

With such a big incident happening today, there’s no way there wouldn’t be some buzz on the internet.

Jiang Ning directly searched for Hao Manman’s name, and sure enough, she found an overwhelming amount of news about Hao Manman’s hospitalization due to mosquito attacks.

Netizens were stunned:

[Hao Manman? Again with Hao Manman?]

[Uh, the one hospitalized because of mosquito bites is Hao Manman, so who was the one panicked by the dog this afternoon...?]

[Hahahaha, it’s her!!!]

[Isn’t this just too much bad luck, two outrageous incidents in one day, getting scared by a dog during a commercial performance, getting bitten by mosquitoes in a hotel, thank goodness I’m a successor of socialism, otherwise I would really suspect that Hao Manman was cursed with voodoo. ]

[Don’t say it, really don’t...!]

[Um, me too, when I saw those two videos, I had the same thought...]

[Psh! What nonsense are you guys talking about, are you still living in the old ancestral society?]

[No, it’s just really weird, okay?]

[Yeah, I saw both videos too, whether it’s the dog this afternoon or the mosquitoes in the hotel later, they seemed to have their own will, deliberately targeting Hao Manman]

[And, they seemed quite hostile towards Hao Manman! Looking at the sheer number of mosquito corpses this afternoon, there must have been tens of thousands, right? Imagine how many bacteria are on those mosquitoes; it’s a miracle Hao Manman survived!]

[What on earth did Hao Manman do? Even stray dogs and mosquitoes can’t stand it?]

...

As Jiang Ning scrolled through the comments and watched the netizens’ wild speculations unfold, she thought to herself: This is just the appetizer.

However, as a top celebrity in the entertainment industry, Hao Manman had such a big incident occur, yet there were no fans defending her in the comments?

Jiang Ning kept scrolling and found that Hao Manman’s fans had indeed already taken action.

This afternoon, while she and Qi Xingzhou were arresting Chen Jia, Hao Manman had already made it onto the hot search because of a sprained ankle.

At that time, her fans ran to the official Weibo account of the drama crew and the director’s account to defend their idol. Later, when the news came out that Hao Manman was suspected of having been bitten by mosquitoes and hospitalized, her fans thought it was false information and started arguing with some netizens in the comment section.

Afterward, Hao Manman’s agent confirmed the incident, and Hao Manman’s fans then blamed Changfeng Hotel for the mosquito bite incident. They found the hotel’s name, address, and contact information online and started to call the hotel staff with abusive language.

The Changfeng Hotel where Hao Manman stayed is a well-known five-star chain hotel in the country, which couldn’t accept being unfairly maligned and slandered by Hao Manman’s fans. They immediately released surveillance footage online.

There were three pieces of surveillance footage, one showed Hao Manman fleeing from her room and eventually being rescued in the seventh-floor corridor.

Another showed medical staff pushing Hao Manman to the hotel lobby after she was rescued, only to be followed and bitten by thousands upon thousands of mosquitoes. It took a great deal of effort to eliminate all the mosquitoes and finally get Hao Manman into the ambulance.

The last piece of footage was taken from nearby floors of the hotel, clearly capturing these mosquitoes flying in from different directions, purposefully and premeditatedly heading to Hao Manman’s seventh-floor room.

Even when everyone closed the room door to prevent the swarm of mosquitoes from getting close to Hao Manman, they still lingered outside the window, waiting for the next chance (in the hotel lobby) to attack Hao Manman!

The three pieces of video clearly and plainly recorded the complete incident.

It seemed unbelievable, but it was true.

After watching these three surveillance videos, netizens commented:

[Changfeng, you’ve been wronged!]

[Changfeng Hotel Lobby Manager: See? The mosquitoes were attracted by this woman herself!]

[Netizens: Saw it, saw it!]

[As absurd as it may sound, this really isn’t the hotel’s fault. The mosquitoes flew in from outside; it’s not an issue of hotel hygiene.]

[What do Hao Manman’s lackeys have to say now? Insulting people without knowing the facts, come out and apologize at once!]

[Damn, that’s terrifying. All those mosquitoes’ corpses on the ground, how many kilometers around must they have gathered from? On the other hand, aren’t the people of Q city blessed now?]

[So, what exactly did Hao Manman do, dogs despise mosquitoes?]

[The old saying goes, commit too many bad deeds and retribution will inevitably come. My neighbor once sold his beautiful, flower-like younger sister to someone old enough to be her father for a large dowry. Later, she was beaten to death by her husband, and her family used the dowry and compensation after her death to buy a house and a car in the county town, living in glory.]

[Friend, what happened next?]

[Well, one day when the family of three went shopping, they were crushed to death by someone who jumped to their death. Exactly, all three of them were killed.]

The tone in the comment section started getting metaphysical after these three videos.

Hao Manman’s fans were shocked after seeing the three segments of video. With the evidence so clear before their eyes, even if they wanted to defend Hao Manman, they couldn’t outright lie.

No matter how powerful a person’s fanbase is, can it really be more powerful than countless netizens?

After Hao Manman’s fans stayed silent, the netizens were the ones who became more enthusiastic, all guessing what Hao Manman had actually done.

Jiang Ning watched this development and suddenly felt she could stir things up a bit more.
