No one notified me in advance. Everyone in the end times is crazy.

Wang Ye immediately became alert and asked, "What do you know?"

"Father, what can I know about that? After all, you handled the matter so cleanly back then."

Wang Ye breathed a sigh of relief when he heard him say that.

Wang Rui picked up the teacup to hide the corners of his lips that were raised. He found Wang Ye's calm and composed look amusing.

"Although I don't know anything, I heard an interesting story. It's about a man who forcibly destroyed another family, raped a married woman, and then killed the mother, leaving only the child. Father, are you interested in listening?"

Wang Ye said with a dark face, "I'm not interested in children's fairy tales."

Wang Rui held up his chin and asked with interest, "Father, how old am I this year?"

Wang Ye thought for a moment and said, "18 years old?"

[Stupid, even I know he's 20.]

Wang Rui chuckled and asked, "How old is Xiaobao this year?"

Wang Ye answered without hesitation: "15 years old."

[Sure enough, Wang Ye really cares about Wang Xiaobao so much? I didn't realize that.]

"I didn't expect that my father cared so much about Xiaobao."

【I didn’t expect that either. 】

"What's there to worry about with a useless mute?"

"It seems that my father doesn't care about him. Could it be because he was born on the day my mother and father divorced? I didn't expect my father to be so affectionate towards my mother and remember that day so vividly. It really touched me."

[Hmm? Why does it feel like Wang Rui is setting a trap for Wang Ye?]

Hearing that Wang Rui "understood" him, Wang Ye's expression also softened a lot. He said with some relief: "It's good that you understand. If your mother hadn't been so unreasonable, things wouldn't be so awkward now."

"But I don't understand. If Father really cared about Mother, how could he not even know how old you two are now? Or was there something else going on that day?"

Wang Ye's face instantly turned cold, and his eyes looked as if he wanted to kill Wang Rui. He asked him, "What do you want to say?"

Wang Rui raised his lips and said with a squinting look, "For example, that day is also the anniversary of Xiaobao's mother's death."

[Wow, more gossip to listen to.]

Luo Shiyu stared at Wang Rui intently, holding the bowl with both hands and slurping the yogurt.

Wang Rui was once again touched by his cuteness, and rubbed Luo Shiyu's head with a doting look in his eyes.

"Sixteen years ago, my father met a flower girl while on a business trip. He was attracted by her beauty and lied that he wanted to buy all the flowers for his beloved wife. When the flower girl took him to her flower room, he was raped. The woman's cries for help were drowned out by the blooming flowers, and no one could save her."

Wang Rui's eyes were on Luo Shiyu the whole time, as if he was telling him this on purpose.

【Then what? 】

"When the woman's husband returned, he found the flower girl unconscious in the flower room, half-naked. The husband couldn't stand his wife having an affair with someone else, even though it wasn't her fault. He divorced her anyway. A month later, the flower girl found out she was pregnant."

Wang Rui said this while looking at Wang Ye on the screen, his tone heavy: "She is pregnant with the abuser's child."

Luo Shiyu's heart skipped a beat and he looked at Wang Ye.

【Scum! 】

"Where did you hear these rumors? We were in love with each other, and she voluntarily gave birth to my child. It's a pity that she died of complications during childbirth after giving birth to Wang Xiaobao." There was no sadness for the death of his lover in Wang Ye's words.

"The flower girl's former husband, the doctor who performed her prenatal checkups, the cook who cooked for her while she was imprisoned, the midwife, and even Wang Xiaobao's mother—all were killed by my father. There were no witnesses, so whatever my father said was true. But my father seemed to have forgotten something. The shadow that flashed by the window at that time wasn't a wild cat, but me."

Wang Ye's eyes widened, and he asked in alarm, "It's you! What did you see?"

"Let me think about it~" Wang Rui closed his eyes, as if he was really trying hard to recall.

"A simple wooden house, a woman with chains tied around her ankles, a cook boiling water, a midwife forcibly holding the woman's vagina open, an indifferent man, and a pistol hidden behind his back. Hmm... that's about it."

"Did you see it all?"

"Who knows? I don't know if I saw everything. I only know that no one came out of that wooden house except a man holding a baby.

"I was surprised at the time why my father didn't show any joy when he heard it was a boy. Now I think about it, the reason my father imprisoned the woman wasn't because she was pregnant with his child, but because she was carrying a boy."

Wang Ye did not refute his words and asked, "How did you find that wooden house?"

"Didn't Father know? It's a popular game among children to boost their courage. They always say that the sound of a woman crying from that dilapidated wooden house is terrifying.

Aren't scary things fun? I went into the cabin alone. There were no scary ghosts there. A beautiful woman was tied to the bed. The sunlight shone on her through the hole in the roof, like an angel with broken wings. She was stunned for a long time when she saw me, and so was I.

"Why don't I know about this?"

"Because my father didn't care about me, and that woman didn't know my identity. By the way, it was me who reported my mother to him for having a mistress!"

Wang Ye pounded the table angrily and yelled at him, "You! It's you! You're the one who started all this!"

"Look, you're making your father happy. Do one good deed a day, so you don't need to thank me."

"You! Ah—I'm going to kill you!"

Wang Rui hung up the video, rubbed his temple, and said disdainfully, "What a noisy guy, like an exploding toad."

She glanced at the frozen Luo Shiyu, stood up, walked over to him, stretched out her arms and hugged him tightly, and said sincerely: "I'm sorry, I thought about saving her, but I was only four years old at the time and I was too weak. She is a very good person. Every time I went there, she would bring me snacks and tell me some interesting stories from the folk."

"I begged my mother, but she told me not to tell anyone for the sake of face." Wang Rui sighed and coaxed softly, "Okay, don't cry, everything is over. If you keep crying like this, your brother will be distressed."

[I'm not crying? Hey? Why are my eyes foggy?]

Luo Shiyu blinked, and tears fell.

[It's Wang Xiaobao who's crying. Are you so aggrieved? Unfortunately, crying doesn't solve any problems.]

Wang Xiaobao's voice echoed from the depths of his soul: "I'm sorry, Master Demon. I've been deceived and brainwashed by that scumbag for too long and I can't control my emotions."

"So what are your plans now? Do you still want to make your father proud of you?"

No, Lord Demon, please destroy him.

【I am very happy.】
