『Conquering a Hell-Mode Start』
The original host's mother and the matriarch of the Xie family (Song Yunshan) were close friends. After the original host's parents died in an accident, she was adopted by the Xie family matriarch. Although the matriarch treated her well, the Xie family's son, Xie Lingyuan, disliked her from the moment he first saw her for some unknown reason. He didn't bully her, but he never spoke to her either, ignoring her as if she were air. He always seemed to think she was "scheming" and "too calculating." This kind of life wasn't unbearable, but it wasn't happy either. But all of this was nothing compared to life after marriage. The marriage started with a failed plan by the original host's "best friend"... Xu Roujia's original plan had only one target: Xie Lingyuan. She spiked his champagne, wanting to play the hero who "saved" him; but she also spiked the original host's glass, wanting to ruin her too. But... it seems something went wrong. The creepy, perverted man who was supposed to "rescue" the original host turned out to be Xie Lingyuan instead? Perhaps because the drug took effect early and clouded his mind, or maybe they both just wanted to find a place to rest... The next morning, before the two of them even woke up, Xu Roujia was already standing behind Song Yunshan, whispering that she saw the original host follow Xie Lingyuan into the lounge last night, acting hesitant about whether she should speak up. When the original host and Xie Lingyuan woke up, Song Yunshan's expression had completely changed. It's over. That was probably what everyone was thinking. Except for Xie Lingyuan. He was convinced the original host had orchestrated the entire thing. He believed she had been calculating ever since she entered the Xie household as a child, that she had intentionally placed that spiked glass in front of him, and that she had used the drug as an excuse to climb into his bed... He married the original host not because Song Yunshan forced him to, but because he wanted to keep her right under his nose. On their wedding day, he moved her belongings out of the master bedroom. During their years of marriage, the word he said most to her was "Get out." The longest sentence he ever spoke to her was "You are very calculating." And the last sentence he ever said to her was "I should have killed you long ago." During the time Song Yunshan was gravely ill, Xu Roujia poisoned her tea. Consequently, Xie Lingyuan burst into the original host's room, seemingly having witnessed something. Without hesitation, he pulled out a gun and aimed it at the original host... Bang! ...
