Chapter 44 The Second Birthday Gift

Hearing the white-clothed girl's words, Wang Yunchuan wore a helpless expression again.

As a grandfather, Wang Yunchuan doted on his granddaughter too much.

From childhood to adulthood, Wang Yunchuan had only shown her the most beautiful side of the world, never having the heart to let her see the dangers of the world or the wickedness of people's hearts.

She did not know that while sports competitions could be fair, in this kind of life-or-death struggle, fairness was not needed. Any insidious means could be used, as long as you could win in the end, you were in the right.

This girl, naturally frank and kind-hearted, was a good thing.

If she only had a bodhisattva's heart but no butcher's means, after his hundred years, this girl would probably not only fail to protect the Wang family but would also die prematurely.

Wang Yunchuan made a silent resolution in his heart that no matter what, he had to make her marry Shen Lang.

Her bodhisattva's heart, combined with Shen Lang's powerful martial arts and butcher's methods, would not only prevent the Wang family from declining but would make it flourish, perhaps even becoming the foremost aristocratic family in Nanling.

Thinking this, Wang Yunchuan looked towards the high platform, calmly watching the development of events.

"Kid, you are too despicable."

Hearing Shen Lang admit that he had poisoned and incapacitated hundreds of Lin family's old subordinates, Lin Nianfo was furious and cursed at Shen Lang, "You even use poison, you have no bottom line."

"This is called no bottom line?"

Shen Lang sneered and said, "If this is no bottom line, then what do you call your Lin family filling children's bodies with mercury, turning them into living golden boys and jade girls, and then selling them?"

This statement caused an uproar throughout the venue.

"What?"

"The Lin family actually did such a thing?"

Many people knew that over a decade ago, there was a funeral company in Nanling that sold funeral supplies and included a pair of golden boys and jade girls. These golden boys and jade girls were lifelike and exquisitely beautiful, becoming incredibly popular for a time.

According to many, the golden boys and jade girls felt as comfortable to the touch as real people, and some even suspected they were real.

But no one present had ever imagined that those golden boys and jade girls were actually made from living people, and what's more, they were made by the Lin family.

The Lin family claimed to be a charitable family, having performed countless charitable acts over the years, and Lin Nianfo was the greatest philanthropist in Nanling, known as a living Buddha.

Now, Shen Lang was claiming that this utterly heinous deed was done by the Lin family. How could the guests present not be shocked?

"The Lin family actually did such a thing?"

Let alone outsiders, even Ye Shishi, who was very close to the Lin family, was shocked and could hardly believe her ears.

Ye Shishi was a businesswoman and liked profit, that was true, but such an inhumane business was something she would not even dare to imagine.

Even Yang Ce of the White Horse Club, a man with blood on his hands, widened his eyes upon hearing Shen Lang's words.

Such a thing, he wouldn't even dare to conceive of, let alone do it.

This was no longer a crime, but an act against humanity. If it became known, they would be nailed to the pillar of historical shame and be infamous forever.

If this matter were true, even if the Lin family killed Shen Lang today, there would be no place for the Lin family in Nanling in the future.

These people would spare no effort to boycott the Lin family and expel them directly.

They were all in the same business, capable of playing tricks and plotting schemes, but not of being inhumane and committing crimes against humanity.

Because, if this matter were true, the existence of the Lin family would make them all feel uneasy, like a bone stuck in their throat, like a thorn in their side.

"Kid, how dare you spout nonsense?"

Lin Nianfo never expected Shen Lang to reveal such a shocking secret in public. His face changed drastically, and he shouted, "The Lin family's purity cannot be slandered. You want to tarnish the Lin family's name, no way."

"Slander their purity?"

"Tarnish their name?"

Hearing Lin Nianfo's words, Shen Lang laughed heartily, "Lin Nianfo, today is your eightieth birthday. I have prepared two birthday gifts for you. You have already seen the first one, which is the rosewood coffin next to me."

"And for the second, I will now let you see it. I hope you will be satisfied."

With that, Shen Lang took out his mobile phone and played a recording.

The phone was connected to a fist-sized Bluetooth speaker in Shen Lang's pocket, so the content of the recording could be clearly heard by everyone present.

"I always thought that after more than ten years, these matters would have been buried, and no one would ever know. I didn't expect you to dig it up."

"That's right, that funeral company did belong to the Lin family, but it had no connection with the Lin family on the surface."

"I once saw this method of turning living people into golden boys and jade girls in an archaeology book. So, I had people turn the orphans adopted from orphanages into golden boys and jade girls."

"Honestly, I originally thought that this method could only earn two hundred million yuan, which would be a blessing from Buddha. I didn't expect that the golden boys and jade girls produced were famous far and wide, and were in short supply. Soon, all the hundreds of children in the orphanage were gone."

"To firmly grasp the market, I then had people capture beggars and abandoned infants from the roadsides of Nanling and turn them into golden boys and jade girls..."

This recording was the conversation Shen Lang had with Lin Nianfo the first time they met.

The content of the recording was Lin Nianfo's own words.

And everyone could hear that Lin Nianfo sounded clearly pleased when he said these words.

What?

Hearing this recording, Lin Nianfo and his family's faces instantly turned as pale as paper.

And the hundreds of guests present were all stunned, standing frozen on the spot for a moment.

Shen Lang's words just now were shocking enough, but no one expected him to have concrete evidence.

Indeed, this recording of Lin Nianfo was concrete evidence.

Everyone present had used recording tactics against their opponents, and had also been recorded themselves.

What was a synthesized recording, and what was an original, unedited recording, they could tell without technical appraisal, just by listening.

This recording was not modified or technologically synthesized in any way; it was all Lin Nianfo speaking.

Damn it, this Lin family is too shameless and inhumane, they even dared to do such a thing.

Unless Lin Nianfo could kill everyone present and Shen Lang, from this day forward, there would be no Lin family in Nanling.

"Elder Tang, protect me. Be careful of Lin Nianfo's desperation."

Yang Ce was a smart man and knew that safety was the most important thing at this moment. He spoke to the old man in black beside him.

"Your Highness, rest assured. With me here, your safety is guaranteed."

The old man in black replied with a calm and confident expression.

It's over, the Lin family is finished.

At the same moment, Lin Nianfo on the high platform had a pale face. He never expected Shen Lang to be so unscrupulous and unprincipled, even resorting to sneaking recordings.

Damn it, he himself was a bad person, it was understandable to be unscrupulous and unprincipled, but this bastard was even more unscrupulous and unprincipled than him. What did that make him?
