Hi, I accept what you say but want to clarify a few points

1. You believe posting was written by her and orginate from her correct?

2. You believe she was not sexually abused but had an affair with the senior official. Correct?

3. You believe she is a willing party in the affair. No abuse of authority and power involved. Correct?

4. You believe her subsequent appearance is voluntary meaning she had not been coerced or pressured to say certain things and is under any threats. Correct?

1. Yes. The post I have translated above is the original one and definitely not censored. That is the post that caused all the drama in the first place.
2. Yes, this is confirmed in her original post. Her complaints about the need to be hush hush, cannot be officially married, verbally abused by current wife and cleaner.
3. Don't know. She never allege that Zhang coerced her that bad things will happen if she don't have sex, but at the same time I also cannot say for sure as sometimes exerting power over someone isn't that straight forward. Can be implicit and stealth as well. How much of it (if any) was due to authority only she knows. But she did confess they had feelings for each other during their on-off affair.
4. Don't know. I suspect she was warned of certain OB markers in light of the thing now been spun as an anti-China narrative and also because it involved a retired senior official. But what she said in her interview by Lianhe Zaobao is technically correct, she never said she was sexually assaulted by Zhang even in her original uncensored post.

I have translated the original post. You can read and form your own conclusions.
