Chapter 404 Another Good Deed Today
Half an hour later, Dai Qing stood on the steps of the moat and looked around. Today was not Sunday, and apart from the old men walking their birds and the young people passing by in a hurry on both sides of the river, no one stopped.
The river water is relatively clear and sparkling. There are weeping willows planted on both sides, swaying in the wind and bringing coolness.
It was cooler here than in the park. Dai Qing walked down the stairs, chose a lush willow tree, placed the bench in place, and just as she stretched her body and was about to sit down, she saw a young lady standing not far in front of her.
She was wearing a white floral dress, with her hair loose, holding a roll of paper in her hand, standing on the shore in a daze.
The whole person looked dazed, as if he could dive into the water at the next moment.
Seeing her like this, Dai Qing silently took two steps forward.
Only after I got closer did I hear the young lady sobbing softly. I didn't know what had happened to her, but she sounded so pitiful.
Just when Dai Qing was wondering, she suddenly found that the young lady took a step forward and her body swayed. Dai Qing's alarm bells rang, and she immediately reached out and grabbed her arm and pulled her back.
The young lady was caught off guard and fell backwards, but was caught by Dai Qing in time.
"Miss, why are you standing by the river? It's so dangerous."
Suddenly being grabbed by someone, the young lady reacted and struggled to shake off Dai Qing's hand. She yelled in a hoarse voice,
"Leave me alone."
It was only then that Dai Qing realized that her face was covered in tears and her eyes were swollen like peaches.
"You've encountered some difficulties, right? But no matter what, don't jump into the river."
Dai Qing held her shoulders and asked her to sit down on the steps.
"You look young, but impulse is the devil."
As she spoke, Dai Qing looked at her face. The young lady looked dazed and her complexion was gloomy, especially her forehead and palace of illness. Fortunately, the young lady's three-in-one complexion was correct and her forehead was faintly bright, which meant she had a face with "brightness in stagnation".
The young lady was entangled in gossip and was unable to break free. She could not bear the pressure and developed a mental illness.
"You are entangled in right and wrong, and you have no power to defend yourself. If you commit suicide by jumping into the river, there will be no way to redress the injustice. You will let others make up stories for you. Do you feel guilty?"
Listening to Dai Qing's consolation, the little sister covered her face and cried, "You don't understand, you don't understand anything."
"I don't understand, but you're stupid if you want to die."
Dai Qing looked at her and patted her on the back.
"If you're not afraid of death, what else are you afraid of? Why don't you fight for yourself again?"
"Fight? How can I fight? They have no ability. They can only spread rumors behind my back. They make it sound very convincing, but the people in the company just believe it. No one listens to my explanation. The rumors are getting more and more fierce. They say that I became the HR manager by relying on my sex appeal."
The young lady had suffered injustice and had no one to vent to. Now, after being comforted by Dai Qing, tears began to flow like a faucet with the gate opened.
"Since I learned about the job competition, I worked very hard for three months and won first place in the written test and the interview. Afterwards, some people said that I was a bad woman, a flirt, and relied on my body to get promoted. But they didn't know that in order to compete for the manager's position, I slept only three or four hours a day, just to prove myself..."
After listening to the young lady's confession, Dai Qing finally understood that this was a case of jealousy.
For women, the most worry-free and effective attack is to create "dirty rumors". It is simple, fast, low-cost and high-return.
Whenever you encounter someone with poor psychological endurance, facing mocking eyes and vicious words, it is easy to break down their spirit, just like this young lady, who was forced to jump into the river.
"If you were dead, wouldn't that make people more satisfied? What is a rumor? It's made up out of nothing. It's not meant to prove your guilt. It's just to remove you from your position as a manager. You are now giving others an opportunity."
"But what can I do? I really can't stand it..."
Whenever she saw those strange looks, she couldn't help but tremble all over and was completely unable to continue working.
For this reason, her leader talked to her many times, hinting that she should work hard...but she just couldn't get over it.
"It takes only a few words to spread rumors, but it takes a lot of effort to refute them. Because the cost is so low, people don't care. You should call the police and let them find those troublemakers. Then people will see that you are not easy to mess with, and no one will dare to look down on you anymore."
This young lady looks young and inexperienced, and she is pretty. She is so popular that she easily makes people jealous.
Especially for those old foxes who have been doing nothing for hundreds of years, they have no ability and a bad mentality, so it is not surprising that they have evil thoughts.
Anyway, there is no price to pay for spreading rumors and causing trouble. Even if they are caught, the most they will receive is a criticism and a lecture, which will have no impact on them at all.
There are also those who spread rumors, especially "yellow rumors", because this kind of thing is vulgar enough.
Some people simply have a bad attitude and are jealous.
If you take it seriously and call the police, they will be scared immediately.
After hearing Dai Qing's suggestion, the young lady raised her hand and wiped her eyes. "The police won't take care of this kind of unsubstantiated rumor. I've been to the police station before..."
"Why are you standing here today? If you were not physically and mentally injured, would you choose to jump into the river? Even if you cannot be convicted, you should be arrested as a warning. As long as you are determined, the police will definitely investigate."
The rumormongers just don't want you to have an easy time. Once you take them seriously, they will definitely be scared.
After hearing Dai Qing's reminder, the young lady hesitated for a moment, her eyes gradually became firm, and she nodded.
"I really can't die like this. I finally graduated from college and found a job. If I am forced to death by them like this, I will never accept it."
"Yeah, think about your parents. If they knew you had this idea, they would be very sad."
The young lady sat on the steps for a while and her eyes became more determined.
"Little sister, thank you so much for today."
She was exhausted physically and mentally by the rumors, and she didn't know what was wrong with her today. She just couldn't get over it and wanted to end it all.
But now, she is determined to make those who attacked her pay the price.
"If you want to drive, just call the police. It's better to deal with this matter as soon as possible."
Dai Qing looked at her back and sighed.
Fortunately, she suddenly came to the river to sit down today, otherwise if this young lady jumped into the river, no one would be able to rescue her in a short time.
Back under the willow tree, Dai Qing sat on the pony, looked at the clear sky and smiled, thinking that today was a good day.
Just after sitting down for a while, a man came over with a bird cage. "Hey, now that society is getting better, some people are starting to set up stalls to tell fortunes."
