56: Chapter 56 A minor role hired for a few hundred yuan

The Zhou Family, once so high and mighty, had treated him, Shen Wen, like a dog, forcing him to live a life worse than that of an animal.

But look at them now, crawling at his feet, trembling, begging for his forgiveness.

Is this the benefit that status and position bring?

Shen Wen curled the corners of his lips into a chilling smile.

At this moment, he had truly awakened.

If he had known it would be like this, why bother pretending to be a useless live-in son-in-law?

If he had revealed his identity sooner, the outcome would have been different long ago.

Perhaps by now, he wouldn't be sleeping alone in an empty room, but would have already won his beauty.

Thinking of this, Shen Wen cast his gaze upon Zhou Xiaodie.

As for the attitudes of the rest of the Zhou Family, Shen Wen didn't care to pay them much attention.

It was Zhou Xiaodie he was interested in; he wanted to see what choice she would make now that she knew his identity.

Zhou Xiaodie had long been flustered and at a loss by this sudden turn of events.

However, unlike the rest of the Zhou Family, she had no intention of begging for mercy.

Although she was somewhat intimidated by Shen Wen's status, her eyes flashed with a hint of disdain.

Yes, exactly, disdain.

In her eyes, Shen Wen was wasting such a good status, and in the end, he was still just a loser.

A loser like this didn't deserve for her, Zhou Xiaodie, to kneel and beg for mercy, let alone have the qualifications to be her man.

Compared to Chu Yuan standing beside her, Shen Wen wasn't even fit to carry his shoes.

In fact, deep down, Zhou Xiaodie had a feeling that as long as Chu Yuan was present, even if Shen Wen was the Young Master of the Shen Family from the capital, he still couldn't threaten her Zhou Family; Chu Yuan could solve any trouble.

Seeing that glimmer of hope in Zhou Xiaodie's eyes, Chu Yuan nodded with satisfaction.

Zhou Xiaodie's judgment was quite good; she knew who the true king was and hadn't blindly made the wrong choice like the others in the Zhou Family.

However, it was time for this farce to end.

"Hahaha!"

"I didn't expect the Zhou Family's useless live-in son-in-law to be quite capable. To actually pull off such a stunt and scare you all like this—it's truly impressive."

After a round of applause, Chu Yuan couldn't help but mockingly praise Shen Wen.

"Chu Yuan, what do you mean by this?"

Upon seeing Chu Yuan, the rage in Shen Wen's heart could no longer be contained.

All the suffering he had endured in the Zhou Family over the past three years could be burned away; at most, he had only wanted to teach the Zhou Family a lesson, and for the sake of Zhou Xiaodie, he wouldn't have done anything to them.

But there was one person who had already made it onto Shen Wen's kill list.

Daring to defile his wife, Zhou Xiaodie, and cuckolding him—if he didn't kill Chu Yuan, it would be difficult to quell the hatred in Shen Wen's heart.

As for Shen Wen's ferocious and murderous appearance, Chu Yuan simply dismissed it as a loser dog barking, immediately turning into a master detective to analyze the situation for the Zhou Family.

"Your plan is actually quite good, finding these few extras to claim to be the Young Master of the Shen Family."

"This move did indeed intimidate the Zhou Family, but a low-class person like you will never know what a true wealthy family is."

"Dozens of luxury cars leading the way, hundreds of bodyguards coming out, paired with red carpets and flower petals—that kind of high profile is what a real return of the Young Master of the Shen Family looks like."

"But look at you now, with five extras you found who knows where."

"A big fat man and four security guards—is this the grandeur of your Shen Family?"

"Although this fat man acts well and intimidated the Zhou Family, anyone with a brain can see that it's full of holes."

What?

The entire Zhou Family was dumbfounded.

These five people were all extras hired by Shen Wen?

Hearing Chu Yuan's analysis, the Head of the Zhou Family, Zhou Qing, was the first to react.

If Shen Wen were really the Young Master of a big family, how could he have humbled himself as a live-in son-in-law in his Zhou Family for three years?

Even if we take a step back and assume all of this were true.

If his second-rate family were to welcome back their eldest son, they would do it in the most grand manner, announcing it to the world.

Sending just these five people, so shabbily.

Which big family would play such a trick?

That could only mean one thing, which is exactly what Chu Yuan just analyzed.

Shen Wen was not the Young Master of the Shen Family from the capital at all, and these five people were just extras he had hired.

Thinking of this, Zhou Qing felt ashamed.

He, the dignified Head of the Zhou Family, had actually been scared by this useless live-in son-in-law.

Fortunately, Chu Yuan reminded him; otherwise, he would have been fooled by this loser.

"Well played, Shen Wen, you damn loser. It seems I, Zhou Qing, have been too kind to you, and you actually pulled this on me."

"What Young Master of the Shen Family from the capital? You thought finding a few extras could intimidate me, Zhou Qing?"

"You should go pee and look at yourself in the reflection. A loser like you, claiming to be the Young Master of the Shen Family from the capital? Even a dog by the Young Master's side is worth more than you."

Zhou Qing was now certain that everything was orchestrated by this useless live-in son-in-law, Shen Wen.

As for the so-called Shen Family bodyguards and butler, he didn't know where Shen Wen had spent a few hundred bucks to hire these extras.

Steward Mo was also furious.

Shen Congwu, although he said he didn't care about the Chu Family and even wanted to have someone teach Chu Yuan a lesson...

In reality, he knew very well the strength of the Chu Family in Modu, and he only dared to send Steward Mo and a few others to sneak into Modu, which gave Chu Yuan the perfect opportunity.

Miao Yue was even more furious.

This damn loser had scared her half to death with that scene earlier, and she had almost knelt before this useless son-in-law to beg for his forgiveness.

For Miao Yue, this was a complete humiliation, and she had to deal with this loser properly. She wanted to let him know that deceiving her would come with a price.

"Shen Wen, you damn loser! How dare you deceive me! Even if you drink all of my foot-washing water today, I won't let you off!"

"What?! You people actually dare to make my Young Master drink this stinking woman's foot-washing water? This is outrageous!"

Steward Mo was completely enraged.

He could have been magnanimous and not bothered with being treated like an extra.

But the Zhou Family first abused his Young Master, and then forced his Young Master to drink foot-washing water.

He finally saw clearly how much bullying his Young Master had endured in the Zhou Family all these years.

If the Zhou Family isn't destroyed, heaven will not tolerate it.

"So what if he drinks foot-washing water? Letting this loser Shen Wen drink my Zhou Family's foot-washing water is giving him face."

"You fat pig, if you dare to jump out again, I'll find someone to kill you."

Zhou Cong, who had been timid just a moment ago, learned that Shen Wen was just a fake Young Master. Thinking about how he had just knelt to him, the anger in his heart surged up.

Shen Wen had originally wanted to show his hand and stop pretending.

But the Zhou Family's mockery and threats made him gradually lose the courage to resist.

Three years of slavery had trained Shen Wen to be servile, and he didn't dare to look the Zhou Family in the eye at all.
