She said she had her legs on top of each other while she was on her phone.
That was supposedly when the man turned to her to tell her that she “cannot cross [her] legs”.
As she questioned him, the man seemingly smiled while using his phone and ignoring her.
When she asked the man about the smiling, he said, “It is funny.”
“Put on TikTok, no problem,” he responded as she probed further.

Then, the woman highlighted the lines between the seats. She pointed out that she was not touching him, nor did she hit him while her legs were crossed.
“If you are so unsatisfied, you can move.”
The mostly one-sided exchange lasted a while longer before the man moved to the cabin exit.
At that point, the woman raised her voice and said he had no business criticising her actions in Mandarin.
“I did nothing wrong, how can you treat me like that? I don’t even know you,” she yelled.
