I was just playing tricks, how come I became Bai Yueguang

Chapter 753: Millions of People as Witnesses

“Boom—boom—boom—”

Yu Sheng's eyelids trembled slightly, and his eyelashes were slightly moist.

Countless motes of dust danced in the focused beam of light. Jiang Huashan stood in the dim light, the motes dancing on her shoulders. Her eyes were as bright as the stars, and she didn't need any extra light.

She just looked at Jiang Huashan in the darkness, listening to her own beating heart.

"It's not worth proving myself for gain, but for love, I can."

"People who read the letter think I'm servile and flattering, but these are just some people's opinions, not facts. Do you want to know how I feel? I am very satisfied with myself. I have high standards. The person I like is also very good. If he doesn't like me, I won't slander him. This is respect for myself."

"I don't think a woman's independence is based on never being emotionally moved. I once sincerely admired someone, and this admiration stemmed from my affirmation of some of his excellent qualities. I acknowledge the existence of this emotion, and it's not shameful. My 'self-esteem' isn't reflected in never having been moved on by anyone, but in my understanding that my value doesn't need to be conferred through the approval of another person."

"I like to take the initiative, and the same goes for love. In my opinion, waiting to be pursued only makes you the one who is chosen. Therefore, taking the initiative is equal to making independent choices. With so many people in the world, of course I have to choose the one I like the most. Even if he doesn't like me, there is no shame in taking the initiative."

Off camera.

Shen Garden.

The tea in Shen Lanxi's hand had already gone half cold. He stared at the figure in the darkness, his indifferent eyes slightly rippling.

After a moment, he put down his teacup and stood up.

"The live broadcast hasn't ended yet, where are you going?" Shen Zhuang nodded and made arrangements. "Sit down. You can't be so impetuous."

Shen Lanxi glanced at Shen Zhuang, thought for a moment, and sat back down.

East Bay.

The live TV footage was dim and unclear. Shen Qingyu, who was originally counting the family property in the old house, was also attracted by it at this time. He looked at the figure in the dim light with a serious expression.

The voice was Yu Sheng's, but the tone of voice sounded more and more familiar.

Just as he was staring at those eyes in a daze, there was suddenly a commotion outside.

"Shen Qingyu! Shen Qingyu! Come out here!"

An old man led a dozen young people and angrily broke open the door. Gu He wanted to stop them, but they rudely pushed him into the inner hall.

Shen Qingyu tutted his words and tilted his head to look at the old man leading the group. "What's wrong now?"

The old man was the patriarch of the Gu family. He prided himself on his seniority and did not take Shen Qingyu seriously. "I heard you were checking the clan's accounts? Boy, your last name is not Gu. Not only you, but even if Huo Lanying came in person, you would not be qualified."

Shen Qingyu sneered, holding his chin with one hand, "How can a family that relies on women to support its family have the qualifications to call my mother-in-law by her name?"

"Shen Qingyu?!"

"Hiss—" Shen Qingyu tilted his head and frowned, his smile cold, "You are even less qualified to use my name."

As soon as he finished speaking, a group of bodyguards in suits walked out from the next room.

Gu Feng's expression changed slightly, and he looked at the young man in front of him with a little caution, "You...what do you want to do?"

Shen Qingyu waved his hand, and the bodyguards dragged the group of people out like chickens.

Gu He was a little worried, "Master, that old man is the patriarch of the Gu family after all. Wouldn't it be too much to do this?"

Shen Qingyu raised an eyebrow, "What did you call him?"

Gu He immediately covered his mouth.

Shen Qingyu smiled and said, "I'm going to beat up the old man who's turned bad!"

As they were talking, the TV screen in front of them flashed, and the signal was forcibly switched back to the official channel of the Presidential Palace...

In the image, Yu Siwen sits at his solemn desk, his usual composure gone. His eyes are bloodshot, his lips trembling slightly from trying to suppress his emotions. Every subtle expression conveys to the nation the pain of a father on the verge of collapse and the dire crisis facing a president.

He took a deep breath, his voice hoarse and heavy, with an unquestionable authority and sadness:

"Fellow citizens, friends. I am President Yu Siwen."

"It is with deep sorrow and anger that I announce to you the tragic news: my daughter, Yu Sheng, was kidnapped in a premeditated and extremely vicious attack during the press conference just held at the National Opera House."

He paused deliberately, letting the impact of the news sink in. His gaze, fixed squarely on the camera, seemed to penetrate the screen and capture the hearts of every citizen watching.

"The criminals used advanced jamming equipment and smoke bombs to create chaos at the scene and forcibly abducted her under tight security. Currently, security departments are making every effort to search and rescue her. I have ordered the activation of the country's highest-level emergency response mechanism."

Then, his tone suddenly became extremely sharp and serious, even carrying a warning tone:

"I must solemnly warn everyone: the so-called 'live broadcast' currently circulating on certain unofficial channels is completely unreliable! It is a hoax orchestrated by the kidnappers to confuse the public, create panic, and achieve their ulterior political objectives!"

"That person in the picture, no matter how much she looks like my daughter or how similar her voice is, she is not Yu Sheng! She is a technically fabricated stand-in created by the kidnappers. She is a despicable tool they use to manipulate people and public opinion!"

Just when Yu Siwen was feeling generous and excited, a shocking scene happened.

The live broadcast camera actually showed two images at the same time, one was the incumbent President Yu Siwen, and the other was the president's daughter Yu Sheng.

The person in the darkness said loudly, "I've said so much, but you say I'm not Yu Sheng. Isn't 'I' Yu Sheng?"

Yu Siwen never expected that the criminals would be so bold, but he must not make any mistakes in front of millions of people.

He raised his head, his eyes determined, "Since you say you are Yu Sheng, do you dare to step out of that shameful darkness?"

"Are you? Tens of millions of people are my witness!"
