Provocative Fiery Wife: My Superior is a Affectionate Spitfire

“Of course, I don’t wanna let you off the hook…” she muttered, a cold smile on her face.

She had never thought of repaying sin with grace as a good characteristic to have.

She respected those who did, but she would never be one of those people.

An eye for an eye—that was her style!

With clear traffic, the car quickly arrived at her cousin’s place.

Thereafter, she made a beeline for the villa’s door with a cold expression.

The housekeeper only opened after she pressed the doorbell several times.

“Miss Pei Ge?”

Xiao He widened her eyes, seemingly shocked to see her here.

“Why are you looking at me as if you’ve seen a ghost? Am I not supposed to appear here?”

She curled up her lips coldly, her gaze mocking.

“N-No.”

The housekeeper shook her head frantically at her cold smile and regarded her with conflicted look.

“Tha-That… Do you have any business here?”

Hearing the housekeeper’s question, she lowered her face. “It has to do with life and death; what do you think?”

“Er… Miss Pei Ge, today’s not convenient,” said the housekeeper covertly as she struggled to understand her cryptic message.

“Oh? Not convenient? I think my second auntie should be very free now.”

As she spoke, Pei Ge walked right past the woman and into the villa.

“Ehhh? Miss Pei Ge!”

The housekeeper was stunned to see her walk directly into the villa.

When the former returned to her senses, the latter was already in the living room.

“Miss—”

Before she could stop her, she saw her female employers descend the stairs from where they were talking earlier.

As the three people eyed one another, she shuddered.

A phrase came to her mind: ‘This means war!’

“Pei Ge?! What are you doing here?”

A hint of unhappiness and awkwardness appeared on Liu Yan’s face when she saw her niece in the living room.

If one looked closely, there was also a hint of fear.

“Of course, I’m here to see my dear, second auntie who had just gotten out of prison.”

Pei Ge blinked. With that, the coldness on her face disappeared as a bright smile blossomed in its place.

“…”

Alas, despite the bright smile, the older woman felt uncomfortable and dared not meet her eye.

“Pei Ge, watch how you speak!”

While her mother was afraid, Pei Shishi felt confident and was uncowed.

“You still have the face to come here to see my mom? You should be glad that I didn’t come for you!”

She stared hard at Pei Ge. There was no sign of fear or guilt in her voice.

It was as if the woman who had previously almost turned herself in from fear was someone else.

“You? Come for me?”

Pei Ge laughed at how confident the other was.

“Right! You accused my mom of being a murderer, yet you have no evidence; how could you do that?! No matter how much you hate my mom, you can’t malign her like this! She’s your elder!”

She gagged when she heard her cousin say that.

“Do you know what you’re saying?! Don’t you think it’s funny for you to say that? You both know if second auntie is my mom’s attacker.”

She did not know how low her cousin thought her IQ was for saying all that crap, yet she could say with certainty that she felt very insulted.

“My mom did not do anything like that, or else they wouldn’t let her out,” said her cousin firmly, unaffected by her words.

Knowing that her cousin was lying, she marveled at how mentally strong the other was for being able to lie through her teeth.

If she were in her cousin’s shoes, she would never be this natural and sound this righteous in such a situation.

Nonetheless, it made sense if she considered how her cousin helped her uncle cover up for his crime over a decade ago.

“Your mom got out because you found a contact.”

She laughed coldly as she scanned Liu Yan eerily, making the latter shudder.

When the older woman shuddered, she turned her attention to her.

“My dear, second auntie, don’t you have nightmares at night? Do you know what state my mother is in after being run over by you?”

Her words made the older woman shake and freeze.

To her, the older woman was more normal than her daughter.

“Actually, I’ve never liked you, nor have I thought that you are a good person,”

She said while taking in her second auntie’s pale face and quivering.

“Still, I’ve never thought that you are a bad person. Even with my dislike for you, I still showed you respect.”

As she spoke, her eyes glazed over, but her gaze quickly turned cold and hard.

“That’s why I’ve never expected you to do something like that! That is your sister-in-law! What wrong did my mother do to you for you to be so vicious with her?! She’s never done you wrong! In fact, she’s been nothing but nice to you since the day you married second uncle.”

Thinking of how her mother used to tell her not to hate this woman and be obedient, as well as nice, to her, the anger in her grew exponentially.

Her mother was someone so nice—so kind, but…

“So why did you lay your hands on mom?! Why?! Your target was only that watch, so why did you run her over?! Do you know that my mom is on the brink of death because of you?!”

She sidled up to Liu Yan fast, her eyes wide open and looking terrifying.

“I…”

Liu Yan was stunned. She was about to say something…
