I am the Ultimate Villain, So What If I Kill a Protagonist

60: Chapter 60: Shen Wen’s Version of Love Growing Over Time”You must be Chu Yuan. I wonder if you are satisfied with this gift?”

”Today, I’ll let you know that offending the Shen Family comes with a price.”

Two men in black arrived at high speed, staring at Chu Yuan with an overbearing attitude.

”Mid Stage of Dark Energy, Late Stage of Dark Energy. The Shen Family is truly generous to send you two here to die!”

Chu Yuan was enraged.

Having hurt his subordinates, there was no other way but to demand blood for blood.

The men in black exchanged glances, attacked instantly, and threw punches at Chu Yuan.

Dodging their fists, Chu Yuan leaned in, pushing his Supreme Cosmos Art to its limit.

The men in black were sent flying back just as fast as they had come.

Blood splattered everywhere; the two men must have vomited at least a pound of blood.

When they slammed into the ground, the entire villa trembled.

At this moment, the two men in black were more terrifying than a steamroller.

”Young Master, how should we dispose of these two? Should I kill them?”

Zuo Shishi stepped forward; anyone who dared to trouble her Young Master had to pay a painful price.

”They are already cripples and pose no threat. Call the police and let the authorities handle it.”

Chu Yuan did not intend to eliminate the two of them privately.

They were merely two people at the Dark Energy stage; even if he killed them, the Shen Family would at most feel a twinge of pain.

It would be better to bring the matter into the open.

Since the Shen Family had made a move, hadn’t they just given Chu Yuan an excuse to wipe them out?

...

In the capital, at the Shen Family residence.

Having lain there for who knows how long, Shen Wen felt a sharp pain in his head and dizziness, but he finally opened his eyes.

”Where… where is this?”

The surrounding environment was so unfamiliar, yet somewhat familiar, which only made Shen Wen more confused.

He only remembered being beaten up by Zhou Cong and the others, locked in a dog cage, and nearly dying of thirst.

Then why was he here?

It seemed that before he lost consciousness, someone from the Shen Family had come to rescue him.

Fragmented memories gradually flooded his mind, and Shen Wen seemed to understand everything.

”Thank heavens, Shen Wen, you’ve finally woken up.”

The moment she saw Shen Wen wake up, a middle-aged woman in her forties approached him with joy.

”Mom, why… why are you here?”

Suddenly seeing his mother, Qi Xinyue, whom he hadn’t seen in three years, made Shen Wen even more confused.

”Child, this is the Shen Family; you’ve come home.”

”It’s all Mom’s fault. I didn’t know you had suffered so much injustice all this time. If I had known, I should have brought you back sooner, and you wouldn’t have had to endure such inhumane treatment.”

Seeing Shen Wen, pale and covered in injuries, Qi Xinyue felt guilty, self-reproachful, sad, and heartbroken.

As for her precious son, she wouldn’t even dream of scolding him on normal days, let alone letting him suffer the slightest grievance.

Yet now, Shen Wen had been a live-in son-in-law for three years, living a life worse than a pig or dog, treated like an animal.

”Mom, it’s not your fault. This was my own choice.”

”By the way, I was fine at the Zhou Family, so how did I suddenly return to the Shen Family? What happened?”

”Butler Shen Ao followed your father’s orders to go to the Zhou Family to bring you back. He happened to see the Zhou Family abusing you, so he brought you back.”

”Right, I remember now. I did see Butler Shen Ao before I passed out. How is the Zhou Family now? And what about Zhou Xiaodie? How is she?”

Shen Wen touched his head, feeling a sudden realization, but his heart was filled with immense worry.

Since Butler Shen Ao had gone to the Zhou Family, he likely attacked them.

Worried about Zhou Xiaodie’s safety, he couldn’t help but ask.

”You… how do you expect Mom to talk to you? Even now, you’re still thinking about that shameless woman.”

”Do you know she went behind your back to find another man and cheated on you?”

This infatuated, foolish son really gave Qi Xinyue a headache.

Even at this point, he was still thinking about that bitch, Zhou Xiaodie.

Qi Xinyue had also learned a thing or two about what had happened.

For the past three years, her son had lived a life worse than a pig in the Zhou Family, where he was constantly beaten and scolded by the Zhou Family, and they even made Shen Wen drink foot-washing water.

As for Zhou Xiaodie, she had acted even more outrageously.

As Shen Wen’s wife, she had no sense of propriety, having an illicit affair with Chu Yuan, cheating on Shen Wen.

This was not just an insult to Shen Wen, but an insult to the entire Shen Family.

Of course, none of this mattered anymore; the Zhou Family had already been wiped out by Butler Shen Ao, and neither Chu Yuan nor Zhou Xiaodie would be able to escape.

”Mom, you don’t need to worry about my affairs.”

”Zhou Xiaodie is my wife. Even if she did something wrong, as a man, I should forgive her.”

Shen Wen sighed.

From the moment he had remained silent and let Chu Yuan and Zhou Xiaodie turn everything upside down, he had never resented Zhou Xiaodie; at most, he only felt hatred toward Chu Yuan.

”Why are you so foolish? That Zhou Xiaodie doesn’t like you at all. Cheating on you in public is an insult to you. Such a person is not worthy of being your wife, let alone being the young mistress of our Shen Family.”

”You are the eldest young master of our Shen Family; you will inherit the entire family business in the future. Is it necessary to grovel before such a fickle, shameless woman?”

Qi Xinyue was truly frustrated that he wouldn’t live up to her expectations. She even wanted to slap Shen Wen hard to knock some sense into her foolish son.

Unfortunately, no matter how Qi Xinyue tried to persuade him, Shen Wen remained unchanged in his resolve.

Even if his head was covered in a green prairie, he still wanted to be with Zhou Xiaodie.

”You want to be with that bitch?” Qi Xinyue sneered. ”Impossible. There is no chance for you two in this lifetime.”

”No, I believe that love grows over time and that constant dripping wears away the stone. As long as I don’t give up, sooner or later, Zhou Xiaodie will see my sincerity and be willing to be with me.”

”Love grows over time? Constant dripping wears away the stone?” Qi Xinyue’s expression grew even colder. ”To tell you the truth, your father has already ordered the destruction of the entire Zhou Family. All of Zhou Xiaodie’s relatives have been killed by our Shen Family. Do you think your so-called love growing over time will move her?”

”What?”

”Father is actually so ruthless? He killed Zhou Xiaodie’s entire family?”

”No! This is impossible!”

Shen Wen roared. Unable to accept this reality, he was overcome with anger and passed out again.

”Damn it!”

”Damn Chu Yuan and Zhou Xiaodie, you two bastards, you dared to harm my son like this; I will never share the same sky with you.”

Fuming with rage, Qi Xinyue sought out her husband, Shen Congwu.

As it happened, Shen Congwu had also learned through his networks that the two experts he had sent had been crippled by Chu Yuan, and that he had brought the matter out into the open.

The secret struggle had directly turned into an open conflict.

Shen Congwu immediately gave the order to strike first, launching an all-out war against the Chu family, catching them off guard.
