Seeing the clip of Lan Yu's mother crying on screen, even Lan Xi couldn't hold back her laughter as she sat in the office watching...
It seemed Lan Yu used her own face as a shield, throwing the blame onto Tangning.
However, in order to settle the rumors, Lan Xi immediately instructed her staff to release an official statement stating that it couldn't have possibly been Tangning and to have faith in her...She also reported the incident straight to the police.
As soon as the statement was released, Lan Yu's mother started threatening everyone with suicide; exclaiming that underhanded people in the entertainment industry were trying to destroy her daughter. She also claimed that the netizens were ruining a child's future.
As Tangning was currently on a break, after talking to Lan Xi on the phone, Lan Xi assured her she wouldn't need to do anything personally. So, Tangning lay casually on Mo Ting's lap, dressed in comfortable home clothes as she listened to the entertainment news being broadcast on the TV.
Mo Ting instructed Lu Che to retrieve all his documents, bring them home and tell everyone at work he's too sick to go to the office. However, Tangning knew it was because there was too much going on at the moment and he didn't want to leave her all alone.
"Ting...this afternoon, I want to drop by the police station," Tangning said as she lay on Mo Ting's lap.
"Uh huh," Mo Ting nodded without asking her why.
He understood, in relation to the drugs incident, even if the majority of netizens believed her, she still needed to present some evidence of her innocence. If she missed her chance to prove herself, who could guarantee whether this rumor would be used against her later on.
For Lan Yu to be completely over, there was still a little more to be done, but Mo Ting didn't tell Tangning.
Right now online, the majority of comments were not from 'mother-fans' that supported Lan Yu, but from kids her age that felt, as a person in the limelight, she wasn't setting a good example and was a complete embarrassment!
They even sent a letter to the National Youth Organization with various complaints and suggestions.
The result from this was, in the future if Lan Yu got blacklisted, it wouldn't only be from the entertainment industry, but possibly the entire country.
So, the commotion caused by Lan Yu's mother, didn't actually help her daughter. Instead...
...it made things worse.
However, Lan Yu's mother did not give up. After a suicide attempt, she agreed to accept an interview at the hospital, "As Lan Yu's mother, I feel guilty that I haven't been able to protect her and have allowed her to be hurt this way. I am too ashamed to continue living."
"As for the demon that won't even let a 16-year-old girl go, let's see who God will show mercy to in the end!"
The reporters filled the room like sardines and all pointed their microphones at Lan Yu's mother, "Ma'am, the demon you speak of, are you suggesting Tangning?"
"Who else?" Lan Yu's mother glared at the cameras and sneered.
"Did you think Tangning took drugs and tried to frame it on your daughter? If that's the case, did you report it to the police immediately?" the female reporter pushed for an answer, "As I'm aware, Tangning's management agency, Cheng Tian Entertainment, went directly to the police. Are you afraid of police investigation?"
With the mention of police, Lan Yu's mother was dumbfounded for a moment; she looked slightly in a panic as she responded shamelessly, "I don't know anything, don't ask me. All I know is my daughter is innocent."
After hearing her response, the reporters looked at each other. They didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
