One Word Changed, Characters in Chaos

Chapter 17: Chapter 17 Kneel Before Her

Translator: 549690339

Ye Bingtong’s face had gone deathly pale.

Her lips trembled, and she couldn’t speak for a long time.

She couldn’t understand at all where the video had come from, or why Ye Xiao had it!

Ye Bingtong stared at Ye Xiao with a fierce gaze, “It was you, from beginning to end, you’ve been plotting against me, haven’t you!! Ye Xiao, you have such a vicious mind!”

Ye Xiao couldn’t help but laugh, “I won’t deny I’m vicious, but plot against you? Are you worth it? A fake, deserving of a second glance from me? And that mouth of yours is on your own face, did I force you to kiss someone? Was it me who made you so love-crazed that you spouted nonsense to defend him? Ye Bingtong, try using your brain when you talk!”

“Also! This video, someone just sent it to me! I guess, this kind-hearted person probably sent a copy to your fiancé too. That’s the real reason he wants to break off the engagement, understand?”

Every word Ye Xiao said was a stab in Ye Bingtong’s heart.

Ye Bingtong felt like she was going crazy.

No wonder.

No wonder Brother Gu’s attitude toward her had changed so drastically.

No wonder that when she said she fell down yesterday, everyone reacted so strangely.

They had known about it all along, hadn’t they?

So what was her behavior yesterday? The number one clown?

Ye Bingtong suddenly felt so shaky she could collapse at any moment, looking as if she might faint any second.

Watching the woman he loved being forced into this state, Pei Yue could no longer bear it. He lunged forward and wrapped his arms around Ye Bingtong.

“Pei Yue…” Ye Bingtong looked at him with tear-filled, bewildered eyes.

Now, she had nothing left.

Only Pei Yue!

Pei Yue looked at Ye Bingtong with a painful expression, swearing, “Bingtong, as long as I’m here, I will never let you suffer the slightest grievance.”

He suddenly turned his head to look at Ye Xiao, a trace of fierceness flashing in his eyes.

“Don’t…” Ye Bingtong’s gaze shifted, but she only feebly protested.

“I will make her understand, anyone who bullies my woman must pay the price.” Pei Yue snorted coldly, and a small knife suddenly appeared in his palm, charging directly towards Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao:

Meow meow meow!? The system-generated plot didn’t have this part.

What the hell?

She had just ad-libbed a few heart-stabbing words, and suddenly the male lead had turned into this?

“Stupid system, are you even reliable! What is happening with the plot now?!!!” Ye Xiao screamed frantically in her mind.

The system glitched for a moment.

Soon, it created a new plot.

The speed was quite fast, but so was the male lead’s descent into madness!

Seeing Pei Yue charging at her with the knife, aimed straight for her face.

“Relying on that face of yours, are you? Today, I’ll make it so you can no longer show it to anyone.”

Ye Xiao: “???”

What the heck!

She knew she was very beautiful!

But, those previous scenes didn’t require her to use her beauty at all.

Good grief!

Even without flaunting it, her face somehow attracted enmity!

Luckily, she now had a chance to change her name again.

She had wanted to save it.

But for the sake of her face…

Ye Xiao gritted her teeth and decided to use it.

The plot read,

“Pei Yue, holding a pencil-sharpener knife, stepped towards Ye Xiao. In his mind, Ye Xiao’s image merged with the woman who had abandoned and mistreated him! He could be bullied, but not Bingtong. She was the woman he had sworn to protect for the rest of his life. She had to pay the price!”

“Inside, Pei Yue roared with fury. As he reached Ye Xiao, he raised the small knife…”

According to the subsequent plot, Bingtong eventually called out to stop Pei Yue, and he somewhat restrained himself, but Ye Xiao’s face still ended up with a non-severe cut.

However, here at the acting academy, Ye Xiao wanted to become an actress in the future.

Such a small wound might not seem like much to the average person, but for an actor, any imperfection can be magnified infinitely, and Ye Xiao might lose some opportunities because of it.

So, the chance to “change” had to be used.

According to the plot.

Pei Yue had already reached Ye Xiao.

A smug glint flashed in the depths of Ye Bingtong’s eyes, even as she cried out.

Ye Xiao had indeed been a bit too arrogant these past few days, and it was time for her to learn a lesson.

Of course.

She wouldn’t actually let Ye Xiao come to harm, especially not in front of a crowd, as that would reflect badly on Pei Yue.

But to scare Ye Xiao and make her show an ugly side was still permissible!

Just as Pei Yue’s eyes reddened and he really seemed about to thrust the knife, Ye Bingtong prepared to shout at him to stop.

However.

The next moment.

Right as Pei Yue approached Ye Xiao, he suddenly went down with a thud…

His foot seemed to have been tripped by something out of nowhere, and he ended up kneeling in front of Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao had been somewhat nervous at first; after all, no matter how small, a knife is still a knife.

But seeing Pei Yue actually follow the modified script and drop to a knee, Ye Xiao couldn’t help but laugh.

This time, she had only changed one word.

“He walked up to Ye Xiao, raising the small knife…”

Ye Xiao changed this “walked” to “knelt.”

And so, the plot became.

“He knelt before Ye Xiao…”

“Pei Yue, no!” Ye Bingtong’s call came out subconsciously.

Then.

She was dumbstruck.

Pei Yue… suddenly knelt down to Ye Xiao?

The classmates who had panicked and scattered were also confused.

What kind of plot twist was this?

In the instant his knees hit the ground, Pei Yue suddenly regained some sense of reason.

His expression became dazed, and the small knife fell to the ground.

What was he doing?

Even if he hated Ye Xiao, to hurt someone in public like this would be to ruin himself as well!

Ye Xiao raised an eyebrow.

As a male lead, how could he be too normal?

He had to have some flaws.

For instance, this man, due to his so-called childhood trauma, would become crazed and start hitting people at the drop of a hat!

Of course, in the story, it was always Ye Bingtong who courageously calmed him down.

The female lead is the male lead’s only remedy. This is a trope beloved by old-fashioned novels.

By the end, with her endless tolerance, the female lead finally completely cured the male lead, who would then never lash out again! What a great man indeed!

As Ye Xiao considered this, she couldn’t help but sneer.

You have childhood trauma, which is quite pitiable, but does that make it okay to hurt others?

If Ye Bingtong is willing, then let the two of them be together and not harm innocent bystanders!

As long as they don’t hurt others, they can do whatever they want.

Unfortunately.

Their earth-shattering love hurt everyone, but themselves, who ended up happily with a “happily ever after” ending.

This time, Ye Xiao had only one requirement.

If you want to wreak havoc, wreak it upon each other.

Don’t involve the people around you.

As long as bystanders aren’t involved, Ye Xiao is more than happy to clap and cheer for their grand love.

“Classmate Pei.” Ye Xiao first quickly moved away, then said with a smile that was anything but warm, “You suddenly bestow such a grand gesture upon me, I truly can’t bear it.”
