Ning Shuqian bit Wen Haowen like a madwoman until he bled. Wen Haowen could not struggle out of her grip at all. If it weren’t because of the fact that everyone in the house had been alarmed and Old Mrs. Wen had gotten the servants to pull Ning Shuqian away, Wen Haowen would have had his hand bitten off.

Ning Shuqian guffawed maniacally while her face contorted terrifyingly. She looked just like a demon from hell, especially because of the red bloodstains on her pale lips.

While laughing, she stuck her tongue out and licked the fresh blood on her lips as if she was savoring it.

Even Wen Xinya could not deduce if Ning Shuqian had really lost control of her emotions or was just getting too immersed in her act.

However, Ning Shuqian was undoubtedly behaving in a horrifying manner.

At last, the butler sent Ning Shuqian to the doctor.

Old Mr. Wen walked towards the living room with a sullen expression on his face.

Too worried about Old Mr. Wen, Wen Xinya decided to accompany him and take care of him. The doctor had told them that Old Mr. Wen could not suffer any major agitation ever since the last time he passed out. Yet, Wen Haowen did such an atrocious thing and almost made Old Mr. Wen suffer a relapse. Fortunately, she had made preparations beforehand.

Wen Haowen hung his head low and followed behind Old Mr. Wen.

He dared not act all haughty and self-righteous because he knew that he was at fault.

The thought of Old Mr. Wen being utterly disappointed in him to the extent of being unable to tolerate the sight of him made Wen Haowen realize that Old Mr. Wen definitely wouldn’t hand the Wen Corporation over to him. His heart began to wrench in pain.

Old Mr. Wen stared at Wen Haowen in disappointment and said, “You unfilial son, kneel down now.”

When he read the news reports about Wen Haowen in the morning, he felt as if he was instantly given a tight slap which caused a stinging pain in his face. Unsightly photos of Wen Haowen were plastered across the magazines, and they seemed to have blinded him. Old Mr. Wen could not believe that he had raised such a disgraceful son.

Wen Haowen actually committed such a shameful act.

I actually raised such an unethical son with such corrupted morals.

Wen Haowen had never seen Old Mr. Wen so furious before. His legs turned into jelly and he immediately knelt down in front of him. “Father, I… ”

Old Mr. Wen gave him a hard slap across the face.

“Father, you… you, you actually hit me?” Wen Haowen asked, feeling dumbstruck as his face turned numb. As he stared at the furious Old Mr. Wen, his heart palpitated.

“Yes, I hit you, you disgraceful beast. You’ve brought shame to the Wen Family and our ancestors. Trust you to have the cheek to return home.” Old Mr. Wen closed his eyes slowly with misery written all over his face. Throughout the decades of his life, he had never done anything immoral even during the tough times of his life when he first started building his business. Yet, he had now become a laughing stock because of his shameful son.

Upon hearing Old Mr. Wen’s words, Wen Haowen grimaced and the veins on his forehead began to bulge. He sprung up from the ground and glowered at Old Mr. Wen with bloodshot eyes. “Father, don’t go overboard. How am I a disgrace? If I’m a beast, what does that make you? I’m your son.”

Old Mr. Wen felt as if he had been stabbed in the heart with a sharp knife, causing immense pain to overwhelm him. He clutched his chest and took a step back. Pointing at Wen Haowen who was kneeling on the ground, he hollered. “You… you… you rebellious son. How dare you speak to me like that?”

Wen Haowen stared at Old Mr. Wen’s gaunt face, on which his veins were intertwined. Feeling a little guilty, Wen Haowen said, “Father, I am to blame for what happened today, but that’s not entirely my fault. I had too much to drink last night and I don’t know what happened at all. The reporters barged into my room as soon as I woke up this morning and that woman must have set me up. I was framed…”

Old Mr. Wen sneered. “Framed you? No one can frame or force you if you’re unwilling to do it. Were you drugged or held at gunpoint?”

Not only did he not own up, he even tried to shift the blame to someone else and lie about being framed.

Knowing that he had failed to convince Old Mr. Wen, he hurriedly hugged Old Mr. Wen’s thigh and bawled loudly. “Father, I was really framed by someone else. Please believe me! I know I was wrong. I won’t do it again. Father… just forgive me!”

Old Mr. Wen kicked him onto the ground and barked sternly. “Forgive you? You’ve done such a shameless thing, how can you answer to the Wen Family’s ancestors? You’ve caused our reputation to be ruined. How did I give birth to a beast like you?”

Wen Haowen finally got scared and yelled, “Father, I’m your son. Regardless of how ruthless I may be, I wouldn’t do something like that.”

Old Mr. Wen glared at Wen Haowen menacingly and said, “This is not the first time that you’ve done such a terrible thing. Don’t forget that you caused Yunyao’s death. Aren’t you afraid that Yunyao will question you?”

He was obviously not remorseful at all.

Wen Haowen’s eyes widened in shock and he looked up at Old Mr. Wen. The thought of Mo Yunyao made him shudder and he exclaimed, “Father, please forgive me! I really didn’t do it willingly. I won’t do it again…”

He was sprawled across the ground and weeping like a woman with mucus flowing out of his nose. Old Mr. Wen closed his eyes and said, “You did such a shameful and disgraceful thing. I’m not going to forgive you for it. Otherwise, I won’t have the cheek to face our ancestors when I join them.”

He was again reminded of Mo Yunyao’s death. The situation back then was similar to now, though he was much more composed then. Although he was utterly disappointed… he only gave his son a huge beating. He then knelt down and apologize to Old Mr. Mo before holding a grand funeral for Mo Yunyao.

Actually… Wen Haowen was the one who should have begged Old Mr. Mo for forgiveness. Yet, Old Mr. Wen chose to defend Wen Haowen back then, allowing him to indulge in his extramarital affair.

He had never felt so ashamed and remorseful towards Mo Yunyao and the Mo Family before!

“Father… please give me another chance…” Wen Haowen’s teardrops flowed into his mouth, making him feel extremely repulsed. He tried to explain, only to realize that he seemed to have reached a dead end.
