Spicy Monkey

Five years ago, Wen Mian was branded with the stigma of climbing into her adoptive brother's bed, a finger pointed at her spine.
Everyone said she was an ingrate, unable to appreciate the new life the Pei Family had given her, and instead repaying kindness with enmity.
Only she knew that this so-called favor was nothing but an unfathomably deep hell on earth.
After five years of grinding hardship, Wen Mian had almost died abroad.
When she came back, she was a changed woman, swearing to make every member of the Pei Family pay.
She had thought this was a desperate dead-end gambit.
But unexpectedly, the adoptive brother who had sent her away was like an annoying piece of gum stuck to her shoe, following her everywhere.
She killed, he handed her the knife, she sought revenge, he silenced the witnesses.
Finally, Wen Mian couldn't help it—
"What exactly do you want?"
And that man, who had bided his time for so many years, finally showed his true colors, "Can't you see? I've been doing it all for you."

She knew Pei Zhiyao's character well and understood that if he acted this way, the stage accident must be related to Ling Yuyan.


Otherwise, Pei Zhiyao wouldn't have reacted so intensely.


"Alright, since you say this matter is unrelated, then I'll continue the investigation. I don't believe your story about the theater owner and employees having a conflict. If I can't find out the truth, I won't let it go so easily."


She broke away from Pei Zhiyao's grasp, only to receive a dismissive, "Do as you please."


Those three simple words infuriated Wen Mian even more.


He could have chosen a better excuse, could have gently comforted her.


But Pei Zhiyao opted for the dumbest approach, also the one Wen Mian found most unforgivable.


In the end, Ling Yuyan was still chased out by Pei Zhiyao.


No matter how she pleaded, no matter how nicely she spoke, Pei Zhiyao was unyielding.


The space, once warm and intimate, became extremely awkward due to Ling Yuyan's presence.
