One Word Changed, Characters in Chaos - Chapter 111 - Chapter 111: Chapter 88: Misfortune Sky-high

Chapter 111: Chapter 88: Misfortune Sky-high

Ye Xiao’s intuition had been proven correct time and again.

Gu Cheng thought of Ye Xiao’s predictions, shivering involuntarily!

Ye Xiao sighed as she observed Gu Cheng’s expression.

When faced with the same situation, Ye Bolin was a decisive character, which allowed him to cut through the confusion and completely let go of Chen Yueyue. In the previous life’s book, once Ye Bolin learned the truth, he turned dark as well, which led to his tragic end.

Gu Cheng, on the other hand, was somewhat indecisive.

That’s why even though he had chosen to annul the engagement, he still looked the part of a lovesick fool. In the book, he was the kind of unremitting supporting male character who, despite being forced to witness the male and female leads’ various “plays”, remained hopelessly devoted.

Of course, some of it was due to the plot constraints, but it was also related to Gu Cheng’s own personality.

If it were anyone other than Gu Cheng, Ye Xiao wouldn’t bother getting involved.

But he was Gu Yan’s brother.

If he became soft-hearted toward Ye Bingtong and got caught up in this love triangle, the one ultimately entangled would be Gu Yan, Gu Yan and possibly even the Ye Family, which could ruin the entire favorable situation.

Ye Xiao narrowed her eyes.

If Gu Cheng remained obsessed, then she might need to take drastic measures.

She would try to save him if possible.

If not.

Then she would need to persuade Gu Yan to plan ahead and give up on this brother of his.

If Uncle Gu could not bring himself to do it, it would be best for her elder brother to stay away from the Gu Family for the time being.

After all, protagonists are such that, given a sliver of sunshine, they can bloom splendidly.

Who knows what kind of change the story would undergo if Ye Bingtong had Gu Cheng’s support, and how many times it would cost her to modify the text.

Thinking this way, Ye Xiao’s gaze began to grow indifferent.

If Gu Cheng insisted on seeking out Ye Bingtong, then the Gu Family, as an ally, could be given up on. The cooperation between the Ye Family and the Liu Family should be sufficient.

Ye Xiao thought nonchalantly.

Gu Cheng was alright, but Gu Yan’s expression changed in an instant.

He couldn’t help but glance at Ye Xiao.

Just because of Gu Cheng, was Ye Xiao going to give up on him?

In one brief moment, Gu Yan felt a sense of despair as if he had been struck by lightning!

All that filled his mind was, Ye Xiao was going to give up on him! Ye Xiao was going to give up on him!

How could that be possible?

Gu Yan immediately looked at Gu Cheng: “There is no longer any connection between you and Ye Bingtong! If you dare to see her again, from now on, I will no longer acknowledge you as my brother!”

Gu Cheng was somewhat helpless: “Brother, I just said a single sentence! I didn’t say I wanted to meet her! Relax, I am aware of what I’m doing.”

However.

Both Gu Yan and Ye Xiao knew about Gu Cheng’s cowardly and soft-hearted nature, and neither of them relaxed their vigilant watch over Gu Cheng.

Feeling the weight of their stares, Gu Cheng couldn’t help but feel a chill down his spine.

Damn.

He hadn’t even done anything yet.

Did they have to be so in sync?!

Gu Cheng wondered.

If he really dared to seek out Ye Bingtong.

His own brother would be the first to end him.

Ye Xiao checked the time and said, “I have to rush back to school for classes, so I’ll take my leave now.”

“I’ll escort you,” Gu Yan stood up quickly, but he stumbled and fell back down.

Gu Cheng couldn’t help but feel a bit of schadenfreude: “Brother, you’re just like me now, having trouble moving your legs and feet.”

Gu Yan gave him a sidelong glance.

Immediately, Gu Cheng closed his mouth, not daring to speak anymore.

“It’s okay, no need to escort me, I can go by myself…” Ye Xiao was saying.

Gu Yan had already asked a servant to bring him a cane and insisted, “I’ll escort you.”

Unable to dissuade him, Ye Xiao had to agree.

Gu Yan had the driver waiting at the door.

Pausing in front of the car, Ye Xiao looked at him with a half-smile: “Uncle Gu. You have something you want to tell me, right?”

Gu Yan nodded and spoke calmly, “I’ll keep an eye on Gu Cheng. If he insists on having any connection with Ye Bingtong, I wouldn’t mind confining him to a bed for life.”

Better to be bedridden for life than to bring down the entire family.

Ye Xiao looked at Gu Yan somewhat surprised: “Don’t you think you’re making a mountain out of a molehill?”

In this world, probably only she knew how troublesome the male and female protagonists could be. If Gu Yan regarded Ye Bingtong as just an ordinary person, his reaction seemed a bit extreme.

Gu Yan said placidly, “I’ve told you before, Pei Yue is somewhat uncanny. Ye Bingtong is the same. Against such people, you cannot give them the slightest chance. Gu Cheng could very well be the opportunity they need to take off, and I will not let that happen.”

So, don’t give up on me.

Gu Yan looked at Ye Xiao seriously; he really didn’t want to see the coldness in Ye Xiao’s demeanor again.

Ye Xiao was somewhat surprised at Gu Yan’s perceptiveness.

But then she thought about it.

Gu Yan was someone who could even resist key plot developments, and she couldn’t help but chuckle.

“I understand. However, Uncle Gu, you don’t need to be too extreme. If Gu Cheng really wants to meet with Ye Bingtong, there’s no harm in letting them meet. Sometimes, the more you separate them, the harder it is to let go. Meeting them might actually help get rid of many obsessions,” Ye Xiao said.

She didn’t have the patience to guard against Gu Cheng like guarding against a thief all the time.

If he insisted on meeting Ye Bingtong, she would give him a night to remember for a lifetime.

Guarantee that from then on, when he thought of Ye Bingtong, there would be no more longing, only horror.

Thinking of Ye Lin’s current attitude toward Bai Shilan, Ye Xiao felt that she could do it.

Of course.

If she put effort into it and still couldn’t make Gu Cheng realize,

Then he might as well spend a lifetime lying in bed.

“Understood,” Gu Yan nodded and replied, “I will have someone watch over him. I’ll inform you immediately if there is any movement.”

“Good,” Ye Xiao responded.

The books were now playing tricks on her, with some key plots only updating a little ahead of time. Having Gu Yan also keeping watch in reality, she could grasp more comprehensive information.

Seeing that the indifference in Ye Xiao’s eyes had greatly subsided, Gu Yan finally felt relieved.

He reached out to open the car door for Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao got into the car and then rolled down the window.

She looked at Gu Yan, her eyes curving into a smile: “Uncle Gu, you were very handsome at the basketball game today.”

After saying that,

The car window rolled up, and the car sped away.

Gu Yan stood in place, stunned for a while.

After a long time,

His lips couldn’t help but curve into a smile.

It seemed his participation in the basketball game was indeed worthwhile.

Gu Yan limped back home.

Gu Cheng raised his eyebrows: “Brother, did something good happen? Your face is all smiles.”

The smile on Gu Yan’s face disappeared instantly, and he snorted coldly, “Mind your own business!”

Gu Cheng felt wronged.

What had he done? Why was everyone being so harsh on him!

When Ye Xiao returned to school, she was in a rather good mood.

But when she saw Ye Bingtong’s sullen face, her mood got even better.

How should she put it?

This matter of the basketball being crushed by hand was really unscientific.

Fortunately, like hail falling, the Modify-Text System had automatically corrected it.

No one was currently concerned about how the basketball could suddenly explode; instead, they brought up again the matter of Ye Bingtong being unlucky.

If it wasn’t bad luck, then what was it?

It could hail out of nowhere, targeting only her and Pei Yue.

Now she touched a basketball, and it exploded!

This was not just simple bad luck; this bad luck must have reached the heavens.

Thus,

When Ye Xiao entered the classroom, she found that the seats around Ye Bingtong had all been emptied.

The classmates would rather squeeze together than have anything to do with Ye Bingtong.

Ye Bingtong was biting her lip tightly, her eyes coldly fixed on Ye Xiao.

She always felt that all the misfortunes happening to her were somehow related to Ye Xiao!

Everything was not supposed to be like this.

It was Ye Xiao who changed it all!

The start of all her tragedies was the breaking off of her engagement with Gu Cheng.

So,

Now, she had to change that!
