"Hanshan."
President Lin walked in and called out Xu Hanshan.
Xu Hanshan looked at him and responded.
Chairman Lin smiled bitterly upon seeing this and asked, "How is Miss Bai now?"
"Mr. Zhao said she's in poor health and needs to be taken good care of."
President Lin nodded repeatedly: "That's exactly what should be done. That's exactly what should be done. Miss Bai has been wronged."
After a moment's silence, President Lin finally spoke again: "Your cousin Xiaosheng was not well educated by me as a father. After that day, I locked her in a room and made her face the wall to reflect on her mistakes. She eventually left a letter and committed suicide to apologize."
President Lin handed the letter to Xu Hanshan.
The handwriting on the paper was quite beautiful, but Xu Hanshan knew that it was definitely not written by Lin Xiaosheng himself.
Lin Xiaosheng is a coward who bullies the weak and fears the strong. She is definitely not someone who is willing to die for the honor of her family. Moreover, Lin Xiaosheng does not think that there is anything wrong with what she did to Bai Yuzhi. That day at Jinshan Butterfly, she even said with confidence that Bai Yuzhi was lowly and that it would be fine if he died. Such nonsense.
It is impossible for such a person to understand his sins by facing the wall and reflecting on his mistakes.
The reason why President Lin said this was probably because he had asked the elders of his family to discuss it together, and finally executed Lin Xiaosheng. However, in order to protect the reputation of the Lin family, he said that she had come to her senses and committed suicide to apologize.
However, Xu Hanshan only wanted a result. As long as Lin Xiaosheng died, he didn't care how she died.
As for the suicide note in his hand, President Lin used it just to calm Xu Hanshan down.
Xu Hanshan understood the principle of knowing when to quit. Since Lin Xiaosheng was dead, this bad debt could be written off. The Lin family did not have the courage to deceive him, so the matter was left at that.
Lin Xiaosheng's death was an explanation given by the Lin family to Xu Hanshan, so Xu Hanshan naturally would not be stingy with that bit of fame.
"In that case, the death of the young lady of the Lin family is no small matter. Naturally, all families should be informed. She committed suicide, so a funeral will be omitted. However, the news can be spread. What do you say, uncle?"
Chairman Lin's hands trembled as he forced a smile: "Hanshan is absolutely right."
This is the promise Xu Hanshan made. He will send people to make up for the lost reputation of the Lin family. Then the purpose of President Lin’s trip will be achieved.
With this promise, at least it means that Xu Hanshan did not vent his anger on the entire Lin family. This is the best outcome.
As for the fact that Lin Xiaosheng couldn't even hold a funeral, President Lin also accepted it.
He didn't blame anyone now, but only Lin Xiaosheng for her own incompetence and for making such a big mistake. Being able to restore the reputation of the Lin family was already the best outcome for her.
President Lin left, and the second aunt also took her leave, saying that she wanted to give Xu Hanshan and Bai Yuzhi some time alone together, so Xu Hanshan walked into Bai Yuzhi's room.
Xiaoqing was combing Bai Yuzhi's hair. Old Zhao said that this method can promote blood circulation, so Xiaoqing has been combing Bai Yuzhi's hair every day these days.
Bai Yuzhi's long, thick, black hair spread on the bed, like a piece of black silk, looking smooth and soft. Xu Hanshan moved closer and touched the hair, and it felt really good.
"Go down, I'll comb my wife's hair."
Xiaoqing happily agreed. She liked to see her young lady being pampered the most. Seeing Xu Hanshan like white jade so much, she felt happy.
So it became Xu Hanshan who served Bai Yuzhi.
"Isn't it boring for Madam to stay at the mansion?"
Xu Hanshan was so powerful that no one else dared to come to the mansion. Even if they really wanted to come and see Bai Yuzhi, they were afraid of being accused of currying favor with the powerful.
That's why Xu Hanshan asked Bai Yuzhi this question because he was afraid that she would be bored here.
Bai Yuzhi had her eyes closed, but upon hearing this, she opened her eyes again and pulled Xu Hanshan's hand down coquettishly.
Since she became pregnant, she has become much closer to Xu Hanshan. Xu Hanshan can only feel happy and thinks that maybe it is because she is pregnant that she is a little attached to him.
"Can I have someone come in with me?"
She looked at him with eyes full of pure joy and anticipation. How could Xu Hanshan bear to refuse her?
Such a beautiful girl, pregnant with his child, begging him like this, any man would not be able to refuse, not to mention that this was Xu Hanshan's original intention.
"Of course, you can invite anyone you want."
Old Zhao said that a better mood would also help with physical recovery, so Xu Hanshan wanted to make her happier.
Bai Yuzhi sat up and counted on his fingers excitedly: "Miss An, Madam Guan, Madam Chu, and Miss Zhao, can you all come?"
There is no need to mention Miss An and Madam Guan. Bai Yuzhi met Madam Chu when he was with the Butterfly in Jinshan. She is a girl with an extremely cheerful personality and also returned from studying abroad. However, unlike Xu Lanyin, she is a girl who hates evil and Bai Yuzhi likes her very much.
Miss Zhao is Mr. Zhao’s granddaughter. She is only fourteen or fifteen years old. She is very cute, round and has a white jade-like texture.
Xu Hanshan laughed: "Of course, if you like lively atmosphere, you can arrange a flower viewing party and invite more people to come."
As long as Bai Yuzhi wants it, Xu Hanshan will naturally not let her get it.
It's just a matter of asking some people to play with her. What's the big deal?
After all, no one would dare not come.
Bai Yuzhi thought about it and realized that if he talked about the unresolved stumbling blocks, there was only one left.
In the original novel, Xu Lanyin's admirer was of course not only Jin Pengyue. Jin Pengyue was a gentleman. When he heard about Xu Lanyin's death, he was heartbroken, but he also understood that the fault lay with Xu Lanyin.
But there is another fanatical pursuer of Xu Lanyin, Cen Yu, the editor-in-chief of Xinren Newspaper.
Like Bai Yuzhi, Cen Yu was born into a family of scholars, but he was even more miserable than Bai Yuzhi. His family was ransacked for collecting banned books, leaving only Cen Yu alone. Cen Yu struggled on his own since childhood, and made a name for himself in the newspaper with his unique satirical writing style, and thus became the editor-in-chief.
Later, he became pen pals with Xu Lanyin and developed a liking for her.
In the original world, the reason why Xu Lanyin was able to publish her article in the newspaper so smoothly and become popular was because of Cen Yu's secret help.
Now the news of Xu Lanyin's death has spread throughout Shanghai and Sichuan, but Cen Yu has not taken any action yet. Even Bai Yuzhi would not believe him if he said he was not holding back.
So in order to lure him out, Bai Yuzhi had to do something eye-catching.
The flower-viewing banquet mentioned by Xu Hanshan is a good idea.
It's all because this world wants to maintain its human image. Otherwise, wouldn't it be better for her to just act like a little vixen and seduce Xu Hanshan to just shoot the troublesome male supporting actor?
Bai Yuzhi sighed and thought about the flower viewing banquet.
What should I do to make this Cen Yu show up...
