Upon hearing this, Shen Chi's handsome face darkened like water. He had no idea how much Su Mingxian and the children had suffered over the years, and all of it was caused by the venomous woman before him. His gaze towards Zhang Chunhua was as cold as ice shards.
Zhang Chunhua felt a chill run down her spine from his stare and quickly stepped back, her voice trembling as she said, "Y-you shouldn't listen to her nonsense. She's just a loose woman; how can you believe her? Maybe your Daughter-in-law ran off because she was instigated by her—"
Shen Chi's eyes were icy as he interrupted her, "You know very well that I have never treated you poorly over the years. I sent as much money home as I could, hoping that you would treat her and the children well in return. But how did you repay me?"
"You not only continued to humiliate her but also allowed your own son to commit such despicable acts." He turned his cold gaze towards Shen Qing. "You've really grown bold, haven't you? You dare to dig at my foundation; it seems you want to die."
With those words, he delivered a punch straight to Shen Qing's face. A scream erupted, and blood gushed forth in an instant. Shen Qing was so frightened that he lost his wits, stammering, "Elder brother, I didn’t—ah—"
Then came the sound of a horrific scream, echoing through the air like a slaughtered pig, heart-wrenching and relentless.
Everyone present couldn't help but shiver; the scene was unbearable to watch—it was too brutal, an overwhelming one-sided beating with no chance of retaliation.
Father Shen rushed in and was met with this scene, instantly infuriated to the point of smoke pouring from his seven orifices. "Stop! Stop right now! You ungrateful son, I—"
"If you take one more step, I will kick him to death today." The voice was as chilling as winter ice.
Shen Chi exuded an aura that seemed to tower two meters eight above everyone else, his foot pressing down on Shen Qing's head, instantly intimidating the entire room. Even the loudmouthed Zhang Chunhua held her breath, terrified that this disaster of a son might endanger their lives.
Father Shen took a deep breath and gritted his teeth. "You wicked child, what do you want?"
"What do I want? Why don’t you ask what they have done? Not only did they withhold my Daughter-in-law's money, but they also confiscated her letters. Is she even human?" Shen Chi's eyes were sharp as knives. "You forced me to marry and have children; I complied with your wishes. But what happened next? You just stood by and watched my wife and children being bullied? Even if you look down on me, why not confront me directly? What kind of ability is it to torment women and children?"
The words were laced with insinuation, and Father Shen's eyes widened in fury, his blood boiling.
The two of them hardly resembled father and son; they were more like enemies.
Shen Chi was clearly utterly disappointed in these people and had no desire to hear any explanations. He coldly stated, "You better pray that she and the child are safe. Otherwise—"
With a loud crack, a brick shattered underfoot, startling Shen Qing so much that she lost control, rolling her eyes back and fainting.
...
After this incident, the Shen Family became the laughingstock of the village. Zhang Chunhua had embezzled so much money that Father Shen nearly died from anger; naturally, he would not let her off easily.
The Shen Family was filled with complaints and cries of despair.
Meanwhile, Shen Chi spent the night awake, his mind consumed by images of that frail shoulder being bullied and the little figure timidly calling out "Daddy."
His heart was heavy with guilt. How much suffering had she endured alone at home over the years? Reflecting on what Aunt Cuihua had said made him feel that Shen Qing's beating was still too light.
So, before leaving the next day, he gave Shen Qing another thrashing, provoking a wailing scene from Zhang Chunhua and her mother-in-law. Father Shen was furious but helpless.
Liu Juan looked at the man lying immobile on the bed and felt an intense hatred for Su Mingxian. "It's all this wretched woman’s fault. Even after leaving, she can't find peace. Why doesn't she just die?"
