CHAPTER 567: CHAPTER 567 GOOD AND EVIL WILL EVENTUALLY BE REPAID

Wen Father was in such pain that he couldn’t even cry out; he could only shed tears nonstop.

Wen Father’s nose had been completely destroyed by Wen Xin’s kick, and when he opened his mouth, two teeth mixed with blood fell out.

Xu Ke looked at the blood on the carpet with a blank expression, merely pressing Wen Father down even harder. Seeing Wen Father’s state, Wen Xin laughed joyfully; her laughter started small, then grew loud, sharp, and piercing. She laughed so hard that she bent over, clutching her stomach, tears uncontrollably flowing from her eyes, splattering directly onto the plush carpet.

Ariel sat cross-legged on the sofa, and as she saw Wen Xin’s actions and heard her laughter, her eyes involuntarily lit up; it was the look a child gets when seeing a toy.

"Didn’t you want to keep this secret? I’m telling you now, it’s impossible. You can’t keep this secret; you can’t protect it at all, and in the future, I won’t hear any more disgusting words from you about making amends." Wen Xin’s face muscles were twitching non-stop, and she smiled with particular pleasure, seeing the changes in Wen Father’s pain-ridden face.

"You’re insane!" Wen Father roared with his wind-leaking teeth, struggling violently, trying to overturn the person holding him down and make Wen Xin shut up.

"The secret I want to reveal is that this man, who appears to be a good husband, a good father, a good entrepreneur, is actually a despicable and disgusting rapist, an abominable pervert!" Wen Xin shouted angrily, as if squeezing out all the air from her lungs.

Wen Father stopped struggling, even Xu Ke, who had maintained a facial paralysis since entering the room, looked at Wen Xin in astonishment. The calmest person in the room was Ariel, who had been abroad all along, as she had some issues in her mind and her thought patterns and acceptance capabilities sometimes differed from ordinary people.

"Don’t be fooled by his present facade of a respectable entrepreneur, always donating money everywhere — do you think he’s truly benevolent? He’s done too many guilty things, fearing that after death he’ll go to Hell, so he’s trying to do good deeds to earn his way out. This man, acts a loving couple with my mom in public, while secretly torturing her in the basement; if I wanted to see my mom or let her live better, I had to listen to him and go out to find suitable targets for him, make friends with them, bring those women to this beast!"

"Do you know what the most disgusting thing I’ve done in my life is? It’s making friends! For so many years, I’ve been like a virus; regardless of whether others approached me with true feelings or not, as long as they got involved with me, they had a bad end. Ha, even if you donate loads of money, for the things you’ve done, you deserve to go to Hell, to tumble around the eighteenth layer of Hell; so do I, we both belong in Hell."

When Wen Xin spoke these last words, it seemed as if all her strength had faded; the last few words were almost whispered, but Xu Ke still heard them. He looked at Wen Xin in surprise, then returned to his calm demeanor.

After all, no matter how tragic her experiences were, they were no excuse for her becoming a co-conspirator in harming others.

"The Wen Family is finished, do you think you’ll fare well? Under a fallen nest, no egg remains unbroken; if I’m doomed, you won’t fare well either. All those girls you deceived and harmed, they won’t spare you, they will tear you to pieces!" Wen Father’s darkest, most hidden secret, which could not be known by outsiders, was already shouted out by Wen Xin, so he simply gave up struggling and retorted at Wen Xin.

Every word he spoke made his nose and mouth hurt terribly, but thinking about what would happen after this matter spread, the pain on both his face seemed less severe.

"I don’t care anymore; living now is no different than dying for me. In fact, living is even worse than dying; at least in death, I can leave cleanly, giving an account to the girls I’ve harmed over the years. Besides, deep down, I don’t want you dead; I hope you will live long, carrying the gift and curse I’ve given you, for a long, long time." Wen Xin’s face once again displayed a gentle smile, and she spoke every word slowly.

Wen Xin’s eyes shone astonishingly bright, her dark pupils like two black holes, seemingly capable of drawing in one’s soul.

"What did you do? What did you do?" Wen Father felt his heart grow uneasy upon hearing Wen Xin’s words, an uncontrollable sense of something slipping out of control.

Wen Father looked at Wen Xin, wanting an answer.

"What did I do? I’ve done quite a few things; I don’t know which one you’re referring to." Wen Xin crouched just a step away from Wen Father, speaking softly: "For instance, I secretly diverted the company’s funds under your name, or perhaps I got you drunk on purpose and had you sign property transfer contracts. All the Wen Family’s real estate has been sold by me, and I’ve had those precious videos you cherished deleted. Hiring a hacker was quite expensive, but thankfully the money I took from you was enough. Originally, I planned to tell you these things later, but it doesn’t matter that you know now. I’ve almost finished everything; you don’t have a chance to turn the tide."

"You’re lying, aren’t you? You’re deceiving me, aren’t you? Tell me quickly this isn’t true." Wen Father’s emotions flared up again; he couldn’t believe what he was hearing, but Wen Xin’s malicious smile shattered his remaining illusions.

"You bitch, you’re just like your mother, both sluts. I should have strangled you at birth, should never have kept such a viper by my side." From somewhere, Wen Father gathered enough strength to indeed throw Xu Ke off and lunged towards Wen Xin; just as his fingers touched Wen Xin’s neck, Xu Ke delivered a sharp hand chop, knocking Wen Father out.

"Thank you," Wen Xin said to Xu Ke.

"I still don’t know what you’re here for, but it doesn’t matter anymore. You’ve learned my biggest secret; do as you will." Wen Xin sat on the sofa, her hand trembling as she poured herself a glass of water. Looking at her reflection in the water, a smile slowly appeared on her face. The woman in the reflection had features as if drawn with delicate strokes, her eye corners and eyebrow tips exuding gentle beauty, just like the woman who gave birth to her.

Staring at her reflection in the glass, Wen Xin became entranced; unknowingly, her eyes began to redden.

"We made a deal; you’d tell us one of your secrets, and we’d let you go. We’ve heard the secret now, so we’re letting you go. Watching this dramatic show, this event wasn’t a wasted trip. If every event had such drama, I’d come every time," Ariel stood up from the sofa, patted her gown and spoke.

"If you do anything this dangerous again, I won’t tell you about any future events," Xu Ke said, rubbing Ariel’s head.

"But I’m not used to too much comfort; it makes me uncomfortable all over. You get it, right? I understand you’re protecting me, but I’m not a canary kept in a cage; I should be flying freely in the sky. Even if there are dangers, I’ll pass through them safely; no one can kill me without my consent, you should know that." Ariel spoke, looking into Xu Ke’s eyes.

The recent protection from Xu Ke made Ariel quite uncomfortable; she’s an eagle soaring in the sky. She might temporarily pause and perch in one place, but she will absolutely never act as a domesticated canary, contently waiting to be fed.
