What if...
No sooner had they taken a photo and tweeted about Shi Yaoguang bullying others than Yaoguang's clarification came out.
She hadn't bullied anyone.
She hadn't forced anyone to kneel before her.
The elderly lady had knelt before her for a reason.
One might ask, what reason could compel an old lady to kneel before Shi Yaoguang, someone two generations her junior.
The reason was quite simple.
The old lady did so willingly.
She was merely seeking Yaoguang's help.
Only, the method she used was somewhat inappropriate.
How the truth of the matter looked no longer mattered.
What mattered was what everyone thought in their hearts.
...
Yaoguang did not realize that the elderly lady's act of kneeling would lead to such a dramatic interpretation by those around her.
In fact, she had simply been unable to stop the emotionally charged old lady in time.
When she came to her senses, she helped the lady up.
She inquired carefully about the matter.
