Bengtie, I'm really not a villain!

Because they were too young to know the truth, they thought their mother was just sickly or unfortunately ill, but now it turns out it was related to this useless old man!

Under the angry gazes of the Firefly sisters, the good-for-nothing man covered his face, as if he had finally realized the shame of bringing up that incident.

What's even more infuriating is that even in this situation, the useless man's muttered words still carried a hint of resentment:

"They promised me I'd make enough money to last a lifetime, so I trusted that card-playing friend. Who would have thought he was a shill..."

This good-for-nothing man recalled a bet from back then, and a look of gnashing hatred surfaced in his eyes.

Of course, what he hated was not that his wife had died, but that he had fallen into a trap in the gambling game.

This contradicts the remorse this useless man felt when he first mentioned causing his wife's death, yet it is the most accurate portrayal of the situation.

From the resentment and bitterness in his expression, it was clear that he still believed he could have won the bet, but was tricked by the other party and lost everything.

Jing Ye sneered at this, and continued what the good-for-nothing man hadn't finished saying:

"You lost everything in that gamble, and you're in debt you can never pay off in your lifetime, plus they're demanding you settle it on the spot, right?"

"Yes... those bastards didn't even give me a chance to raise the money. If I had a few more days, I would definitely have gambled it all back..."

Jing Ye raised his foot and kicked the incorrigible bastard again, breaking a few more of the trash's teeth.

Despite the shattered teeth of this useless man and the dripping blood as he wailed, the eye-catching scene did not move the Firefly sisters.

They seemed to have heard something more shocking than thunder; their minds went blank, and they stared intently at the man on the ground.

Jing Ye watched their tear-stained faces and silently savored the indescribable deliciousness.

Compared to the brutal punishments they were forced to endure in the manor that were detrimental to their physical and mental health, their useless father's confession at this moment was truly the heaviest blow.

What caused them to lose the warmest mother in their hearts was this useless old man whom they worked tirelessly to support.

To pay off his gambling debts, he was even willing to risk his wife's life.

This is the truth about gambling addicts.

Jing Ye wanted to make the Liu Ying sisters truly see the real face of their useless father.

Make one thing clear—gamblers are absolutely beyond help.

The destruction of families and the loss of loved ones is not just a saying; gamblers driven by greed will do anything to satisfy their madness.

And the consequences, of course, are disregard for everything.

Just as this useless man in front of me said:

“I simply don’t have the money to pay off that debt, so…”

"So... so I have no choice but to let my wife sacrifice everything..."

Amidst groans and a mouthful of blood, the useless man clutched his broken teeth and then painfully uttered the final truth:

"Those bastards said that my wife's heart and other organs were very special, which perfectly matched their experimental requirements, so..."

Chapter Fifty-One: Blessings from the Memorial Tablet of My Deceased Mother

Under the speechless, shocked gaze of the Firefly sisters, this useless man clutched his mouth, which was full of blood:

"Those bastards said that my wife's heart and other organs were very special, which perfectly matched their experimental requirements, so..."

Even the most heartless and worthless man couldn't continue speaking at this point.

This worthless man dared not continue speaking not because he knew he was remorseful and had made a mistake, but because he dared not admit that he had personally killed his wife.

This good-for-nothing dares not bear the consequences of causing a death, nor does he dare to face his mistakes. The end result is that he has been running away ever since.

However, Jingye's goal today is to reveal the whole truth.

Therefore, Jing Ye will reveal everything that this useless man dares not say or has not made clear.

It reopens the already scabbed and decaying wound, leaving a bloody sore!

"Because you don't have the money to pay off the huge debts you owe from gambling, they offered you a figure that would just be enough to pay off your gambling debts."

"And the price is your wife, Liuying's mother."

"You have no way of raising money; you're just a good-for-nothing who gambles and drinks recklessly. Plus, you were coerced into agreeing."

"You just sold all the organs of your wife, Liuying's mother, to someone else like that?"

"That's how you killed her, isn't it?"

Jing Ye uttered each word like a thunderclap, as if each word was a heavy hammer blow to their hearts.

"You just so easily sacrificed a life, just to atone for the mistakes you, you bastard, made, is that it?"

As he spoke each word, a fierce glint appeared in Jing Ye's eyes, and he stepped on the face of this good-for-nothing man.

Amidst his wails, the useless man couldn't deny everything Jing Ye said, because everything Jing Ye described was something he had indeed done—

A gambling addict, driven to madness by his gambling addiction, threw his wife and the mother of his children into the bottomless pit of his insatiable gambling addiction.

The end result was that this useless man's wife was handed over to him, and her various organs were extracted by the people who set up the scheme and used for experiments.

The real cause of the Firefly sisters losing their mother was not the person who set up this useless man, but his bottomless gambling addiction.

So at this moment, the tears of the Firefly sisters, who had truly learned the truth about their mother's death, finally burst forth with anger!

The two sisters, who had always regarded this good-for-nothing scum as someone they could only helplessly accept, have finally reached their breaking point and can no longer tolerate him! Anger has surfaced on their faces!

Jingye wanted this scene to finally ignite the dormant hearts of the Liuying sisters, who were used to being exploited and ignored!

The anger that had been suppressed for so many years, which should have been directed at this useless old man but was instead vented by the so-called "gratitude for giving birth to him," was ignited!

Under the angry gazes of the Firefly sisters, Jing Ye kicked the good-for-nothing man in front of the spirit tablet.

After being repeatedly beaten by Jing Ye, the good-for-nothing man had lost the strength to wail and was left only curled up in front of the spirit tablet, barely alive.

Jing Ye still wouldn't let the guy go. He picked him up like a chicken and, with a loud "bang," used a knife to nail his hands to the table.

The weak man, who was on the verge of death and was in excruciating pain again, thrashed about twice, but his blood-filled mouth could not utter a complete pleas for mercy.

Upon seeing this scene, the tears in the eyes of the Firefly sisters finally disappeared, leaving no trace of reluctance.

The two sisters, who were once forced to work to support this useless man, now feel immense hatred and have only just discovered the truth.

The Firefly Sisters resented that they had gone through so much trouble to support the murderer who killed their mother for so many years.

When Jing Ye saw the Liu Ying sisters' eyes filled with even more hatred after witnessing the miserable state of their useless father, he felt an immense sense of satisfaction.

"Do you see that? Now the murderer who killed your mother is paying the price."

Jingye gently stroked Liuying's face, picked up her dog leash, and began to play with the macarons that were bobbing up and down in anger.

In this moment of anger, Liu Ying's body still remembered Jing Ye's training, and responded shakily.

As well, Liu Ying was also led by a dog leash and pressed down in front of her, used by Jing Ye as a cushion to support her.

"Your mother's revenge has been exacted, and now it's time to report the good news to her."

Jing Ye pulled the round beaded whip he always carried from Liu Ying's body. The lightning-fast movement made Liu Ying's eyes roll back in shock. He then began to whip her as usual, leaving red marks.

The useless man next to him, whose hands were pierced by a knife and nailed to the table, was now blind and his vision was blurred. He could not see things clearly and could not even hear sounds.

This useless man didn't know what Jing Ye was doing with the Liu Ying sisters on the memorial tablet, but he vaguely sensed that it was something extremely humiliating.

The useless man's blurry vision made it impossible for him to see what Jing Ye and the Liu Ying sisters were doing. He could only vaguely see the spirit tablet being shaken over by the table and the liquid flying onto the spirit tablet.

However, despite his excruciating pain and the fact that his life was already hanging by a thread, the useless man, even with his eyes wide open and a surge of anger as if a minefield had been stepped on, could only be pinned to the table and writhe in impotent rage.

His anger was swept away by Jing Ye's whip, and the repeated lashes made the useless man dizzy and unconscious again.

Jing Ye then subjected Liu Ying to rough treatment on the spirit platform, causing her to let out suppressed sobs in pain, her vision blurred by tears.

The tears of the Firefly Sisters were unclear whether they were from Jingye's brutality or from the pain of learning the truth.

Compared to what she suffered in front of Jing Ye, it seemed that her useless father killing her mother with his own hands for gambling debts was even more painful for her!

The Firefly sisters suffered unprecedented physical and emotional trauma, while the useless man's mournful cries added a heartbreaking sorrow to the entire scene.

After falling into a coma, amidst this immense humiliation and torture, the worthless man finally murmured unconsciously:

"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry..."

“I’m a useless person… I didn’t take good care of them…”

The murmurs coming from the unconscious, useless man sent a shiver down the spines of the Firefly sisters, and the anger in their eyes reignited!

How many times have I advised him to quit his gambling and drinking? How many times has he stolen my hard-earned wages? Is he only now repenting on his deathbed?!

When he killed their mother, why didn't he repent?

After killing their mother, didn't this guy still continue to be an alcoholic and gambler?

In their anger, the Firefly Sisters ignored the man's crocodile tears, and in their hazy vision, they saw a faint smile on the portrait of their deceased mother on the memorial tablet, the woman they missed!

It's as if I'm witnessing this scene unfolding right now, and I'm sending my blessings to the Firefly Sisters!

The Firefly Sisters were stunned by the smile on their deceased mother's memorial tablet and could not believe that such a "miracle" could happen!

The photos of their deceased mothers seem to be blessing them with their current life and happy that they have gotten rid of that utter scumbag who has been a burden for so many years.

The Firefly Sisters endured the brutal beatings from Jing Ye, finding a bittersweet joy in the process, and through their tears, they realized one thing:

Jing Ye made his good-for-nothing father, who had been an alcoholic and gambler for years, truly repent and weep bitterly.

To make that useless father, who never cared about their lives and forced Liuying to work as a child laborer from a young age to earn a living, truly realize his mistakes.

Even though that useless man is now on his deathbed, and even though that scumbag may still be unable to change his future...

But it doesn't matter anymore; that useless man is now filled with regret and pain.

And that good-for-nothing man has no future, no possibility of pretending to be remorseful while remaining unrepentant to the end.

As Jing Ye brutally punished the Liu Ying sisters, the unconscious, useless man gradually lost his breath and grew cold.

And so, that good-for-nothing man was completely nailed to the altar where his portrait was displayed.

The scumbag who had been a burden to the Firefly Sisters for many years, causing them to be despised from childhood and unable to have a happy childhood, and who had to work to make a living, finally died.

The Firefly sisters, bound and tortured by heavy chains, were finally released and gained their freedom.

She nestled into Jingye's arms.

When that useless man fell completely silent and lifeless beside them, the Firefly sisters, who were being manipulated by Jing Ye, seemed to have been completely freed from their shackles.

The smiling memorial tablet of their deceased mother in front of Liu Ying made them truly immersed in this bittersweet pleasure, and they truly began to cooperate with Jing Ye's brutality.

The Firefly sisters truly realized that compared to their useless father, Jing Ye, who, though cruel, sheltered them from the storm and told them the truth about their mother's death, was their true haven.

Now, especially with their mother's approval and the smiling blessings of the spirit tablet, the Firefly sisters are truly immersed in their training with Jingye.

As for the cold, stiff corpse of the useless man beside them, the Firefly sisters paid no attention to it at all.

If they hadn't known the truth before, the Firefly sisters might have collected the body of this useless man, perhaps even feeling a little sorry for him.

After all, the kind-hearted Firefly sisters could not stand idly by and watch their "father" die.

Although they felt a slight sense of relief amidst the inner conflict, this relief was quickly suppressed by pangs of conscience. But now…

After learning that their gentle mother was killed by this good-for-nothing man, and even sent to pay off gambling debts, the Firefly sisters lost all their remaining feelings for him.

Moreover, they realized that even after killing their mother, this worthless man showed no remorse whatsoever.

This worthless man is still indulging in the gambling addiction that killed their mother, and one day his unfillable hole will swallow them both up.

Just like they killed their mother, they killed them.

Therefore, at this moment, the useless man was repeatedly beaten by Jing Ye and finally nailed to the table, and the Liu Ying sisters no longer cared about him at all.

All they wanted was to enjoy the bittersweet moments with a true haven, blessed by their mother's portrait.

Before this memorial tablet, the Firefly Sisters were no longer puppets manipulated at will by Jing Ye, nor were they empty-eyed dolls.

Just as Jingye had been pursuing—a perfect doll that would cooperate on its own—the Liuying sisters displayed unprecedented obedience.
