Painterly

[Top-tier mutual teasing + extreme tug-of-war + trash-talking + 1v1]
Wen Zhi had lived in the shadow of being bullied by her entire family since she was young until she was discarded by the He Family as a pawn.
After returning to the country, the first thing she did was to give the He Family a big present.
At the banquet, as soon as Wen Zhi was done with her mischief, she wanted to flee.
Just as she reached the corner, a man stopped her.
“Little Zhi, haven't seen you for five years, where are you running to?”
Looking at the big demon lord who'd tormented her since her childhood, with such a righteous human-dog appearance, Wen Zhi swallowed her saliva.
In her ears, she could almost hear He Hanjin saying that same line to her countless times:
“Little Zhi, you need to be good. If you dare to run, I'll break your legs.”
So in the past, she was constantly playing the good girl, and Hanjin seemed very satisfied with her obedience.
But now that she had finally broken free from his control, she didn't know how he'd torment her if he caught her again.
How could she not run?!

Let Her Flirt

She had just left the film crew when her phone rang again.


Ever since she returned, her phone seemed to never have a moment of peace, with people constantly reaching out to her.


Wen Zhi pulled out her phone and glanced at it, seeing a call from Grandpa He, she raised an eyebrow.


The He family always seemed to revolve around her - to outsiders, it might look as if she were some irresistible delicacy.


When she was with the He family, her presence wasn't nearly as noticeable.


However, even if the He family did think of her, it likely wasn't for anything good.


Wen Zhi was indeed curious about what he wanted to talk to her about this time.


As soon as she answered the phone and put it to her ear, Grandpa He's aged yet commanding voice came through.


"Get ready today, you're attending a banquet tonight."


The smile on Wen Zhi's lips deepened a notch.


Putting aside the question of going or not, if she did go, in what capacity should she attend?
