80: Chapter 80 Shen Wen happily receives the title of "Father Killer".

"If it weren't for you being a useless waste who cannot perform the duties of a husband, causing me to live as a widow for decades, I wouldn't have had to go out and do those things."

"You damn slut, it's bad enough that you went out and did those dirty things, but you actually dare to spout nonsense."

The insults and confrontation between Qi Xinyue and Shen Congwu were overheard by Shen Wen, who had just hurried back.

In their unintended exchange, they revealed each other's secrets, which only made Shen Wen more certain about his own background.

Since Shen Congwu was able to discover the shameful things Qi Xinyue had done, perhaps he was already aware that Shen Wen was the illegitimate son born from the illicit affair between Qi Xinyue and the monk Jiesha.

Even if Shen Congwu didn't know now, he would eventually discover the truth one day.

Shen Wen was very clear about his cheap father's personality; he was a man with an extremely strong sense of pride.

If this scandal were to spread, it would undoubtedly ruin Shen Congwu's reputation.

And he, as the illegitimate son, would not escape death either.

Furthermore, Zhou Xiaodie had given him an ultimatum.

If the matter wasn't resolved tonight, Zhou Xiaodie would be the one to die tomorrow.

After weighing the pros and cons, Shen Wen had already made up his mind.

"Dad, Mom, what is going on? Why are you two suddenly arguing and even resorting to physical violence?"

Shen Wen calmed himself down, acting as if nothing was wrong, and stepped forward quickly.

He wanted to persuade the two not to continue fighting.

Seeing Shen Wen arrive, Shen Congwu forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and said nothing more.

After all, this matter involved his own privacy.

Even in front of his biological son, Shen Wen, Shen Congwu was unwilling to let it slip and have more people know about it.

"This time, for the sake of our son, I will let you go."

"I'm warning you, behave yourself, stop spouting nonsense, and don't go out causing trouble again."

"As for that thieving monk, I will send people to capture him, castrate him, and turn him into a eunuch monk."

Shen Congwu issued a warning.

They had been husband and wife for twenty or thirty years, after all, and Shen Congwu still had some feelings for his wife.

Furthermore, with Shen Wen right there, Shen Congwu found it difficult to continue scolding her.

"Shen Wen, this is some private business between your mother and me; you don't need to look into it too deeply."

"Come with me to the study; there are a few important matters I need to entrust to you."

As he spoke, Shen Congwu prepared to take his precious son away.

The father and son could be said to be in the same boat, sharing similar misfortunes.

Shen Wen had been given a green hat by Chu Yuan, and he, Shen Congwu, had been gifted a vast "green prairie" by some unknown thieving monk.

If it were the old Shen Wen, facing Shen Congwu's overbearing language, he wouldn't have said much, nor would he have thought much about it.

But times were different now; perhaps there was also the element of liquid courage involved.

Hearing that Shen Congwu was intentionally covering something up, Shen Wen was not only unmoved but instead questioned: "Dad, what exactly did Mom do to make you so angry that you even hit her?"

"If you don't explain clearly now, I will have to stand up for Mom."

"Insolent! Is it your place as a son to gossip about your father's affairs here?"

"Listen clearly, forget about what happened tonight entirely. Do not say another word about it outside, otherwise, I will definitely use the Shen Family rules to discipline you."

Shen Congwu roared in a fit of rage.

His own wife messing around outside, and his own inability to perform as a man.

These two things, which would disgrace him and ruin his reputation, would be a massive blow to him, Shen Congwu, and even the entire Shen Family if they were to get out.

Therefore, no matter who it was, even his own biological son, if they wanted to dig deeper into this matter, Shen Congwu would show no mercy.

Unfortunately, Shen Wen did not think so.

He only thought that Shen Congwu didn't want him to investigate his own background.

How could Shen Congwu possibly let such a scandal spread?

He, Shen Wen, was the bastard son of Qi Xinyue and the monk Jiesha; if Shen Congwu was willing, he could keep raising him, but if not, he could just get rid of him.

With his life in someone else's hands, the only way to break the deadlock was to be ruthless.

Then he couldn't blame Shen Wen for being merciless.

"Since Father has said so, I won't say anything more." Shen Wen curled his lips into a meaningful smile: "There is a life-or-death matter I would like to tell Father."

"What matter?"

Shen Wen's mysterious appearance made Shen Congwu suspicious.

Fortunately, Shen Wen did not pursue it further, and Shen Congwu did not pay much mind to it.

"What I want to say is... you can go to hell!"

A fierce glint flashed in Shen Wen's eyes.

As soon as he finished speaking, he used lightning speed to pull out the dagger he was carrying and plunged it fiercely into Shen Congwu's chest.

Shen Congwu's strength was originally far above Shen Wen's.

For him to want to kill Shen Congwu would not have been that easy.

It was because Shen Congwu had absolutely no guard up against his own biological son that Shen Wen was able to easily land this stab.

"Rebellious son, you... you actually want to kill your own biological father?"

Shen Congwu clutched Shen Wen's hand tightly, his face full of disbelief.

His own biological son would actually stab him like this.

"Old thing, I already knew the truth long ago. I know you cannot perform as a man; it is impossible for you to have a son."

"Even the matter of Mother being involved with that thieving monk outside, I know it all very clearly."

"What? You... you actually..."

Shen Congwu was even more shocked; so Shen Wen had known all of this long ago.

But why did he want to kill him?

Could it be to cover for Qi Xinyue? But that shouldn't be enough to...

Shen Congwu fell into deep thought, but Shen Wen laughed even more happily: "Old thing, let me tell you, someone else's son can never be tamed. Next time, you should strike early, otherwise, you will only end up being stabbed to death."

After lecturing him with some big principles, Shen Wen pulled out the dagger and stabbed it in again.

Worried that Shen Congwu hadn't died completely, he stabbed him seven or eight more times.

"Rebellious son, you... rebel..."

Shen Congwu pointed at Shen Wen with a look of unwillingness, wanting to say something more, but was stabbed to death by Shen Wen.

Blood flowed everywhere, even splashing onto Shen Wen's face.

Shen Wen, with a ferocious expression, laughed wildly. This horrifying scene was bone-chilling.

"Shen Wen, no... don't!"

Qi Xinyue, who had been stunned, came back to her senses and was just about to try to persuade him.

Who would have thought that this useless, bootlicking son would be so bold as to commit the act of patricide.

Regardless of the reason behind Shen Wen's actions, and regardless of how dissatisfied Shen Congwu was with her, Qi Xinyue did not want Shen Wen to commit such an unforgivable act.

Qi Xinyue pushed Shen Wen away, wanting to see if there was any chance to save Shen Congwu.

The other party had died with his eyes wide open and was already cold.
