Wen Xinya and Old Man Wen went out to see the guests off, because they knew that the host of the banquet had something to do, so they didn't want to delay any longer. Most of them sighed and lamented about what happened in the Wen family, and they were there to watch the fun, so they felt a little regretful.
Soon the guests at the banquet left one after another.
The Wen family and Xia Ruya are the only ones left in the huge manor.
The blazing golden glow in the living room emitted a cold light, and the atmosphere was solemn to the extreme, as if the dripping water under the eaves kept gathering, and when it reached a certain weight, it would wear away the stone.
Ning Shuqian sat dejectedly in the chair, feeling the golden light above her head, burning her whole body like the scorching sun. The flames were like sharp pieces of gold, cutting her skin, like the pain of slow slicing.
"Bang!" Old Master Wen was furious. He slapped the ebony table beside him with his big hand. The tea cups, fruit plate and snacks on the table jumped for a moment, and then there was a tremor.
The huge sound instantly broke the solemnity and coldness in the room. The flames in the room seemed to transform into tangible sharp edges in an instant, which frightened and silenced everyone present.
Ning Shuqian's body trembled even more. The sprained waist, which had already been numb and painful, suddenly became painful again.
"You vicious woman, why don't you kneel down in front of me!" Old Master Wen's eyes were gloomy to the extreme, and the criss-crossing wrinkles on his face seemed as if every one of them was intertwined with anger. The ruthlessness that came from the intrigue and killing in the business world was fully revealed, making people shudder with fear.
"Plop!" Ning Shuqian's body softened and she fell from the chair to the ground. She felt a sharp pain in her waist again, which instantly distorted her dejected face. The pain spread from her waist to her back, making her shiver all over.
Old Master Wen looked at Ning Shuqian, his eyes showing a sharpness that seemed to penetrate people's hearts: "Ning Shuqian, you vicious woman, you took advantage of my daughter-in-law Yun Yao's pregnancy to seduce my son, causing my son to make a big mistake, causing Yun Yao to die prematurely, and finally causing the Wen family to lose their granddaughter. And now you are pretending to be pregnant to deal with my granddaughter. You are so vicious."
The severe pain in her waist made Ning Shuqian sweat coldly on her forehead. She looked at her swollen feet and then realized that she had also sprained her foot. The thought of this... a piercing pain in her bones made her almost cry.
Wen Xinya looked at Ning Shuqian crawling on the ground with cold eyes.
Ning Shuqian should also have a taste of what it feels like to be pointed at and cursed by thousands of people. She should also have a taste of the despair she felt when the Wen family gave up on her.
Master Wen's face became uglier and uglier. He clenched the old man's hand tightly, and the blue veins on his arm crisscrossed. "Ning Shuqian, you used the pregnancy as an excuse to stir up trouble in the Wen family and deceived everyone. Everyone was played around by you like a fool. You are simply crazy."
Although he had suspected it a long time ago, he realized how unbearable it was when it was revealed. The most unbearable thing was that during this period, Ning Shuqian had caused so many troubles in the Wen family by taking advantage of the child in her belly. He tolerated it just because he wanted her to give birth to the Wen family's hard-earned bloodline safely. He was full of hope that the Wen family would have another child. Who knew... In the end, it was just a means for Ning Shuqian to deal with Xinya.
Ning Shuqian finally found her voice. She crawled on the ground and cried out in a hoarse voice: "Dad! I'm sorry, I was bewildered and did such a rebellious thing. Dad... I know I was wrong, please forgive me!"
The situation was hopeless. Ning Shuqian knew that the Wen family would not let her off easily, especially Old Man Wen. At this moment, all her excuses seemed so pale and weak. She could only cry and beg, hoping that the Wen family would not be so cruel to her.
Old Master Wen sneered, his intense emotions gradually cooling down until they became completely cold. "There are three types of unfilial behavior, and the worst is not having children. You've been married into the Wen family for nearly eighteen years, and you've never given birth to a child for them. This is unfilial behavior, but the Wen family doesn't despise you and still lets you live a life of luxury. You're not grateful, and you've actually done something so intolerable. And you still dare to beg for my forgiveness."
Although he disliked Ning Shuqian in the past, she was still quite obedient. In addition, he was too lazy to care about the mess between Ning Shuqian and Haowen, so he never cared about her. But ever since Ruya was revealed to be not of the Wen family's bloodline and Xinya returned to the Wen family, Ning Shuqian's relatively obedient heart began to stir.
The terrible thing about greed is that it will unknowingly erode people's rationality and then turn them into slaves driven by greed.
Ning Shuqian endured the pain of her body being torn apart, and crawled towards Grandpa Wen: "Dad, I know I was wrong, please forgive me! I was really wrong, I shouldn't have used the pregnancy as an excuse to deceive your feelings... Dad..."
Ning Shuqian felt the pain in her waist spreading all over, as if her body was being torn apart. The pain went into her limbs, into her blood vessels and bones, and it was so painful that she could hardly bear it.
Old Master Wen slowly stood up and looked down at her, his face full of anger: "Since you don't have the ability to give birth to a child for the Wen family, I don't blame you. Even if you lied to me, I can understand that. But... what you shouldn't do is to be so intolerant of the only blood of my Wen family and to scheme against her and frame her everywhere."
He is the only child of the Wen family! Even if he is not very good, there will still be a trace of incense left in the Wen family after a hundred years.
"Dad... I was wrong. I won't dare to do it again. Dad... please forgive me!" Ning Shuqian finally crawled to Grandpa Wen's feet. Her face was pale and blue, and her whole face was covered with wet cold sweat. Her wet hair stuck to her cheeks, making her look weak and embarrassed.
The pain in her body penetrated deep into her bones and made her soul tremble. She felt that she didn't even have the strength to speak, as if she would faint in the next second because she couldn't bear such pain.
Old Master Wen's cloudy eyes revealed a gloomy expression: "Don't call me dad. I just feel ashamed to be called dad by a vicious woman like you."
Ning Shuqian's breathing became weak. She reached out and grabbed Grandpa Wen's trouser legs, crying heartbrokenly: "Dad, I know I was wrong... Dad... Don't do this to me..."
"Get out of here!" Old Master Wen kicked Ning Shuqian away, his face cold and hard, and he remained indifferent to her cries for mercy.
Ning Shuqian's body fell heavily to the side. A burst of intense pain almost tore her body apart. She had never felt such pain before. It seemed to be endless, like a punishment in hell.
