Call me unsympathetic, but the fiancee really deserved to be scolded.
I followed the report from lianhe zaobao. Seemingly when this man decided that he want to retrieve the shoe, neither of them knows whether how fast the train is going to arrive. This shoe is supposedly less than one yr old and one of this man's favourite.
When he decided tt he wants to retrieve it, she told him to go quickly because the train hasnt arrive yet.
She then said, after the accident, that there were many people standing at the platform (which I believe that was why they didnt realised of the train any earlier), And no body stopped the man from going down the tracks. If the fiancee herself feels it's ok for him to go down, how is it justified that later she said no one stopped the man.
And when he tried to climb back, she realised he was having some difficulties, so she shielded his head (hu4 zhe4 ta1 de4 tou2), and pulled his right arm in an attempt to assist man from climbing up.
If pulling at right arm, I'll naturally associate as she is using her left arm to pull at his right arm and using her right arm to shield his head.
Which is very qi guai, cos why do you need to shield his head when you should be tugging at him with both hands? And why left hand?(ok, shall take it as she is a left-hander)...
Ok, nvm, shall stop before I am branded as cruel.
