After these harsh words were spoken, not only did the host, Mr. Gong, look at Xu Hanshan tremblingly, but even the guests felt their scalps tingling and wished they could fly out of the house immediately.
Gong Yi, who ran out, was even more dumbfounded.
She simply couldn't understand why Mr. Cen, who was usually gentle and talented, would curse others like this at her wedding banquet, and even cursed the baby in someone's womb. The words he used were so vicious that it was simply outrageous!
While everyone stood there in a daze, Xu Hanshan's eyes were filled with frost. He bent down and picked up a newspaper on the ground. The newspapers that Cen Yu had held in his hand at the beginning were scattered all over the ground, and there happened to be one newspaper right under his feet.
The publication of this newspaper was naturally done by the Newcomer Newspaper Company where Cen Yu worked. As the editor-in-chief, Cen Yu also had some power. He had started preparing these newspapers half a month ago when Bai Yuzhi leaked the news that he would come to attend the Gong family's wedding banquet.
The huge title on it is terrifying -
"Warlord Xu Hanshan was inhumane in killing his own sister, and he will surely be punished by having no descendants."
Such words were printed clearly at the top of the newspaper in the most conspicuous place without any concealment.
The following content is Cen Yu's accusation against Xu Hanshan and Bai Yuzhi. It says that Xu Lan was killed by Xu Hanshan because of an unintentional mistake with Lin Xiaosheng, and Bai Yuzhi was weak, and the child she gave birth to was predicted by the master Zhao to be defective.
In fact, Mr. Zhao did not assert that the so-called heavy drugs would cause children to be born with defects. It was actually just a risk inference. Even if the probability of it happening was much greater than the probability of the child being healthy, it was not 100%.
However, Cen Yu obviously did not care about this. In his opinion, as long as the white jade child was born with even the slightest defect, then everything he did today would be effective and would ruin Xu Hanshan's reputation.
Bai Yuzhi had already prepared a tearful expression when she saw the newspaper headline. Now she was on the verge of collapse, and even in Xu Hanshan's arms she could faintly hear sobbing. These sobs and the clothes on her chest that were soaked with tears made Xu Hanshan's anger even more difficult to suppress.
As early as when Cen Yu said these words that angered Xu Hanshan, Adjutant Chen outside the door had already brought people to pull Cen Yu from the hands of the Gong family servants and control him.
"Don't cry, ma'am. This man is talking nonsense. Our child would never do that."
Xu Hanshan handed Bai Yuzhi to An Jinchou and Mrs. Guan to take care of. He raised his foot, and his military boots made a numbing sound on the marble floor, which sounded more like a death warning.
He stopped in front of Cen Yu.
At this moment, the man still maintained an arrogant and crazy expression, and the gentle disguise he had when he entered the door had been completely torn off by himself.
Cen Yu came here with the intention of dying.
Thinking back to when he heard the news of Xu Lanyin's death, he was heartbroken. He couldn't sleep at night and thought for a long time about how to take revenge, but he failed because of Bai Yuzhi's careful protection.
Xu Hanshan himself was even more elusive, and Cen Yu could not get any information from him no matter what.
Since he couldn't cause them physical pain, Cen Yu was confident that he had the ability to torture them psychologically.
So from the moment he heard that Bai Yuzhi and Xu Hanshan would come to the Gong family, Cen Yu had already started preparing this "big gift" for them.
Xu Hanshan, Bai Yuzhi, and the blood offspring of the two in her womb are all the murderers of Xu Lanyin, so Cen Yu will not let any of them go.
He thought about it for a long time and decided to use the field of public opinion that he was best at. He knew that Xu Hanshan could control the mouths of the upper class, but no one could control the mouths of all citizens.
He knew those ordinary people best. They all loved to read sensational stories of karma and fratricide. He only needed to expose these things in the newspapers, and then as soon as the child in Bai Yuzhi's belly was born, they would naturally think of today's turmoil.
As for the possibility that the child might be healthy, Cen Yu had never thought about it.
After all, miracles are so rare, how could they happen to such a person?
At this moment, all the plans had been realized. Xu Hanshan stood in front of Cen Yu, who laughed sinisterly: "General Xu, you are so arrogant. You killed your own sister right after returning to Huchuan. Do you think I am afraid of you? I might as well tell you that there are far more newspapers than the ones you see in front of you. I have already prepared many more, and there must be enough for the people of the whole city to read them all!"
Indeed, Cen Yu knew that he might not survive, so he abused his power and printed many identical newspapers at the Newcomer Newspaper Office, and distributed them to newsboys all over the city while no one was paying attention.
Newsboys are different from newspaper publishers. They only care about making money and don’t care whether the content of the newspaper is offensive or not.
So Cen Yu’s newspaper has probably spread throughout the city by now.
Everyone was whispering, looking at Cen Lin as if he was a madman seeking death.
Xu Hanshan grabbed Cen Yu's throat and said, "You really want to die."
Cen Yu was strangled to the point of being unable to breathe, his face turning purple, but he still said stubbornly, "Why should I be afraid of death?"
Xu Hanshan looked at him for a long time, but suddenly laughed: "It seems that you don't have much experience. Death is indeed not something to be afraid of. What is worth fearing is a life worse than death."
Cen Yu was furious, but Xu Hanshan stopped him: "Go, take him to the torture chamber and show him what true hell on earth is."
Adjutant Chen grabbed Cen Yu's hair and dragged him out, leaving a trail of blood. Cen Yu was a scholar after all, and he was powerless, so he was dragged away.
While he was struggling, he saw Bai Yuzhi being held in Xu Hanshan's arms and being comforted with great tenderness. The guests in the yard also surrounded that place, constantly comforting and coaxing her.
Cen Yu only felt that the fire in his heart burned even more fiercely.
This is not the ending he wants to see!
Why, why should his beloved Lan Yin suffer such unfair treatment? Even though he exposed Xu Hanshan's evil deeds, this group of rabble still flattered him as if they were unaware.
Cen Yu wanted to stare at Bai Yuzhi with resentment, but was pulled back by Adjutant Chen, leaving a large area of blood on his scalp.
"There's a road to heaven but you don't take it, there's no door to hell but you keep coming, idiot! Our general finally had a few days of good mood, and you ruined it with a fool like you. You're smart and know that to make someone feel hurt you have to poke their heart, but you know that if you poke General Xu's heart, you're done for."
Even Adjutant Chen, who was used to seeing severed limbs, was reluctant to enter the torture chamber. There were all kinds of scary tricks in there that could scare people enough to give them nightmares for three days, let alone experiencing it personally.
