Wen Jie wasn't afraid of what they might do. They'd already come to this point; what could they possibly do?

Zhang Mingxue and Wen Xingsheng were both stunned. Although they had some doubts, there was still a gap between their doubts and the facts. When they finally learned the truth, they felt a little uncomfortable, really uncomfortable.

To them, their son Wenjie was someone they had personally raised; he was obedient and well-behaved, how could he possibly be such a disgusting thing?

They all hate this guy.

Zhang Mingxue glared fiercely at Wen Jie in front of her and cursed him.

"Pah! You're not our son! Our son is obedient and well-behaved. What about you? You're nothing!"

Wen Jie realized that the two of them were unwilling to acknowledge him as their son.

"Heh, what good are you two?"

With parents like you, isn't it normal for you to have a son like me?

What are you pretending for now?!

Hearing this, Wen Xingsheng became even angrier and sent him directly to a boarding school.

Not long after, I heard that Wen Jie had run away and even went to the police station to report that they had abandoned the child, neglected him, and abused him.

The two became even angrier.

They said Wen Jie was faking it, but they weren't.

In short, they spent their entire lives scheming against and betraying each other. It wasn't just abusive; Wen Jie was disobedient, and they often got into fights.

When they were kids, Wen Jie couldn't beat them and was often beaten down, with the blows landing in places that weren't easy to see.

At first, Wen Jie couldn't beat them, but gradually he became able to. He stopped studying and spent his days beating them at home, beating them to death.

They beat him so badly he couldn't fight back. Both of them were bruised and battered, but they still had to go to work. If they didn't bring home enough money each month, they would be beaten again.

After they get off work, they still have to cook and do housework. If they don't do it well, they will be beaten.

After Wen Jie returned, he had to see food on the table. If it was even a little late, he would kick Zhang Mingxue.

"Can't you cook a little faster, you old hag? Didn't I tell you to cook something better? What kind of rubbish have you made?"

Zhang Mingxue was already old at this time. Actually, she wasn't very old, but she looked to be in her sixties or seventies.

Zhang Mingxue wanted to die, but she could never die and could only continue to be beaten by her son. Sometimes she wondered if this was her retribution.

She wasn't good to that mother back then, which is why Wen Jie exists now.

After Wen Xingsheng returned, you had to give him money. It wasn't his salary, but the money he said he would collect and sell after get off work each day. If you didn't give him enough each day, you would be beaten up.

The couple had considered running away, but no matter where they went, Wen Jie could always find them and keep demanding money from them.

They had gone to the police station, but they were told it was a family dispute and that their son was very filial and had been staying with them.

They regret it; they regret beating Wen Jie too hard back then, and now Wen Jie is getting his revenge.

Zhang Mingzhi knew about this, but he never thought of getting involved.

They treated my second aunt the same way back then, and now their child is just being returned to them. This whole family is selfish and deserves it.

Of course, Zhang Mingzhi would often go to see He Ye. Nowadays, He Ye is a famous bigwig in the metaphysics world; he has become a master.

The two of them often drink tea and chat together.

Zhang Mingzhi looked at He Ye and said, "Sometimes I often wonder what would have happened if it weren't for my second aunt back then?"

He Ye looked at Zhang Mingzhi. He wasn't here for casual conversation; this was a pointed remark.

"Then why do you want to know these things? I don't think they're that important to you."

Shouldn't your life right now be the most important thing?

Did something happen to you?

In fact, He Ye knew a little bit, because this life was their rebirth.

"You know what? That kid Wen Jie once came up to me and said that everyone's life trajectory is different now."

He said he wanted me to spend money to buy a secret, and that I had a miserable life in my past life, being a sucker who raised someone else's son.

I really want to know if this is true, but I don't want to beg him or give him the money, so I can only come to you.

Sometimes he has a feeling, a sense that he wasn't like this in his past life.

"Actually, he's right. This is our rebirth, a rebirth given to us by our master."

In our past lives, we both had a terrible time, becoming someone else's tools.

We were just two cannon fodder, including Youyou.

We were tricked by Youlin. Later, they used Youlin's body to deceive many people and made the world a mess. Heaven couldn't stand it anymore and asked for help, which led to the arrival of my master.

As for your original second aunt, she was also a pitiful person.

He sold all his houses and shops for his daughter and gave her a dowry of 1 million.

In the end, I helped them raise their child until he was over ten years old, only to be kicked out of the house by them.

Although you finished high school with the help of your second aunt, you dropped out of school for your younger siblings and worked outside to earn money, dedicating your life to them. In the end, they kicked you out of the house.

This is our past life, but forget about it once you leave this room.

Zhang Mingzhi: "!!!"

Zhang Mingzhi never expected that the truth was like this, and he said, "Why do I have such dreams every day?"

Zhang Mingxue and her family deserve what they're like now; you don't need to worry about anything.

Cherish your life now. If your younger siblings come back, just ignore them.

Zhang Mingzhi nodded. He naturally wouldn't interfere. "I've said it before, the moment they leave home, they are no longer my younger brothers and sisters."

They did come looking for me, but they're not doing well now. I heard they were just used as shields for others all those years, but that doesn't matter anymore.

All I want to do now is take care of my family.

"He Ye, I'm leaving. Until we meet again."

After leaving, Zhang Mingzhi went to the cemetery to pay his respects to Mo Yan.

"Second Aunt, thank you, thank you for giving me a new life."

Thank you for saving Youyou.

Thank you for allowing me to have happiness.

...

Wen Jie continued to beat and verbally abuse Zhang Mingxue and Wen Xingsheng until they were over sixty years old.

They were still torturing each other. They felt they couldn't go on like this, so they added poison to their cooking, and the whole family died.

After they died, they thought they were finally free, but little did they know that this was just the beginning.

The three of them had to go through fire and water...
