Chapter 278: He who blames others should be torn apart
Liu Yunrui's words can be said to have completely torn off the mask that Li Yonghu had been wearing all these years, and trampled it on the ground.
Liu Yunrui, however, still felt it wasn't enough; the more she loved this person back then, the more she resented him now.
"The cycle of karma is inescapable; retribution is inevitable. See how fitting these eight words are for you? The sins you have committed have not only come back to haunt you but have also harmed our two children. Instead of feeling remorse, you have taken away the life-saving charms from our children. Are you even human?"
Having said all that, Li Yonghu finally dropped his pretense and sneered, "Guilt? What do I have to feel guilty about? I am their father. I gave birth to them and raised them. My blood flows in their veins. Without me, they wouldn't exist."
"You say I stole from others and that my current situation is retribution. Why don't you think about whether you and your children could live a life free from financial worries if it weren't for me? If it weren't for me, would you be living such a peaceful life now, with people envying you at every gathering for having a gentle, considerate husband who is also a famous screenwriter?"
"You and the children have enjoyed all the benefits I've brought you, and now all I'm asking you to do is share some of my pain, and you're getting so angry. Who's not human here, and who's the selfish one?"
"So that's what you've always thought." Liu Yunrui felt utterly disheartened.
Although the Liu family is not a wealthy family with hundreds of billions, they are still considered a moderately wealthy family. Her brother owns a company that he inherited from her father. Liu Yunrui does not manage the company, but she has shares given to her by her parents before she got married. The dividends she receives each year are far more than what Li Yonghu, a poor screenwriter, can earn.
When she married Li Yonghu, he was just an unknown junior employee at a company.
It's no exaggeration to say that Liu Yunrui was the main breadwinner for the family until she gave birth to her second child, when things finally got a little better in recent years.
Liu Yunrui never thought about these things. She felt that as long as the family loved each other, was healthy, and lived in harmony, nothing else mattered.
Little did he expect that Li Yonghu would not have noticed any of his efforts, and would only be preoccupied with his false glory as a top screenwriter.
"You're hopeless," Liu Yunrui said, her heart completely unmoved. "Let's get a divorce."
"Divorce? You want to divorce me? You want to divorce me now..."
"That's right, divorce! I'll have custody of both children, I won't take a single penny of your dirty money, and you shouldn't even think about getting a single penny from me."
Li Yonghu realized his wife wasn't joking. Veins bulged on his forehead, and he gritted his teeth: "I disagree!"
"It's no use if you disagree. I'm just informing you. Do you think you can get away with what you did? Heh, while you're still clear-headed, think about how you'll spend your time in jail. Oh no, murder is punishable by death. You might not even get the chance to go to jail."
After saying these words, Liu Yunrui hung up the phone without hesitation and casually sent out another piece of inside information.
As Liu Xiangying predicted, He Shang's son being expelled from school was by no means a coincidence.
The father of the elementary school student whose watch was "stolen" had some connection with Li Yonghu's cousin.
In order to curry favor with Li Yonghu, she accepted Li Yonghu's request to have her child take a pen to school. During recess, she secretly slipped the pen into He Shang's son's drawer, then lied and said the pen was lost, asking the teacher for help in finding the missing pen.
As expected, He Shang's son was wrongly accused, but the fact that he was caught red-handed made it impossible to explain.
The elementary school student's father was very firm, insisting that the school give an explanation or he would file a complaint.
The school had no choice but to expel He Shang's son.
The information Liu Yunrui released was precisely the chat logs between Li Yonghu and the elementary school student's father.
These conversations reveal just how utterly depraved these two adults were in treating a child who was not even ten years old. They even gloated over the child's vulnerability, feeling they could manipulate him at will.
Upon seeing this revelation, some relatively emotional mothers were outraged.
[Damn, this is absolutely disgusting! He killed someone's father, stole the glory that should have belonged to him, and then he even went after the child. Calling him a demon is too kind; how can someone be so vicious?]
Looking at these chat logs, I almost felt like I'd been transported back to a feudal society, where people were groveling, fawning, and ultimately trying to eliminate each other completely. It made me question whether I was truly living in a society governed by the rule of law.
[I almost cried watching this. People who lay a hand on children are the lowest of the low! Using such dirty methods to bully an orphan and widow, accusing a child under ten of theft—what kind of psychological trauma will this cause? It could ruin the child's life.]
The parent who used their son to slander others is an idiot. A parent's words and actions have a profound impact on a child's mental state and their entire life. This parent, however, is completely oblivious to this, and may even be gloating over their son's success in harming others. They are blinded by self-interest and utterly disregard their child's opinions. Such a person is unfit to be a parent.
After Liu Yunrui posted this revelation, Li Yonghu and the elementary school student's father were subjected to a barrage of insults.
The elementary school student's father panicked and immediately ran to Li Yonghu for help, crying and pleading.
Li Yonghu had never been so humiliated in his life. It was at this moment that he finally realized that Liu Yunrui was serious about divorcing him. She really wanted to beat him to death and make sure he could never recover.
The thought that the other party had also said they wanted a divorce made Li Yonghu's eyes narrow slightly, and his face showed a hint of ruthlessness and resentment.
Half an hour later, with the intervention of capital, the previously almost unanimous online public opinion suddenly shifted.
Many marketing accounts began writing articles claiming that it was his wife who exposed the scandal of well-known screenwriter Li Yonghu.
It is understood that his wife had previously asked him for a divorce and wanted to take custody of both children at once.
Li Yonghu disagreed, so the other party used such underhanded tactics, fabricating lies to slander Li Yonghu in order to gain more rights after the divorce.
In just half an hour, Liu Yunrui, who was supposed to be a champion of justice, gained the nickname "Black Widow" under the guidance of online trolls.
This style of turning the tables is very similar to someone else's; Liu Yunrui recognized it at a glance as Li Yonghu's work.
Before she could discuss how to retaliate with her older brother, Ye Wanxi, who hadn't appeared for a long time, suddenly popped up and posted an update.
"Wanxi is not regretting [V]: If I remember correctly, 'putting righteousness before family' should be a positive term. Also, I really dislike the term 'Black Widow,' as it is the biggest misunderstanding and insult to those who dare to stand up for the victims."
