One Word Changed, Characters in Chaos

Pei Yue was still explaining something.

Ye Bingtong opened her eyes groggily, speaking weakly, “Pei Yue, it hurts…”

Pei Yue trembled with fear and hurriedly said, “I’ll take you to the hospital.”

Finally remembering the matter about the hospital, he carried Ye Bingtong and rushed outside.

Suddenly.

An angry voice sounded.

“Pei Yue, is it? Put Bingtong down, I will take her to the hospital.”

Pei Yue looked up and saw Gu Cheng sitting in a wheelchair.

Although Gu Cheng was disabled in the legs, the noble demeanor that he had been raised with was incomparable to Pei Yue.

Pei Yue looked at him, feeling inferior.

But he was unwilling to let go of Ye Bingtong and just gritted his teeth, saying, “Who are you?”

Ye Xiao was also surprised to see Gu Cheng.

Huh?

[What’s going on, why is Gu Cheng here? How did he arrive so timely? Poor kid, probably clutching a handkerchief and crying in his heart right now.]

Gu Cheng was originally glaring at Pei Yue, but then, he couldn’t help but shoot a fierce glare at Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao felt quite innocent under his glare and couldn’t help but return a big roll of her eyes.

[Why glare at me, as if I’m the one who made your fiancée cheat on you.]

Furious, Gu Cheng’s chest heaved for a while before he directly ordered the bodyguard beside him to snatch Ye Bingtong back.

The bodyguard stepped forward, and Pei Yue naturally resisted.

Already feeling inferior facing Gu Cheng,

If Ye Bingtong was snatched away, he would feel utterly defeated.

“Classmate Pei, this is Ye Bingtong’s fiancé. You should let go,” Ye Xiao commented with a face that enjoyed the drama unfolding: “I know you like Bingtong. You are a person without much moral sense, taking someone else’s fiancée doesn’t bother you at all. But Ye Bingtong, she still cares about her reputation to some extent.”

Since Gu Cheng’s appearance, Ye Bingtong, who had been feigning unconsciousness again, suddenly trembled her eyelashes and opened her eyes, softly saying, “Pei Yue, let me go first.”

Having just immersed in the shock that Ye Bingtong already had a fiancé, followed by Ye Bingtong’s personal request to let go, Pei Yue’s heart trembled, and somewhat dazedly loosened his grip on Ye Bingtong.

The bodyguard took over Ye Bingtong and stood beside Gu Cheng.

Gu Cheng coldly glanced at Pei Yue: “You caused Bingtong’s injury. I’ve already called the police. Pei Yue, you can look forward to your prison experience.”

[Eh? How did this male supporting character find out?] Ye Xiao couldn’t help but be curious.

Pei Yue was equally puzzled, gritting his teeth: “You’re lying.”

“Just wait,” Gu Cheng sneered coldly and started to wheel away.

[Hey, the show’s ending so soon. Speaking of which, I’m quite curious about what this male supporting character plans to do next? Hey hey hey, Ye Xiao, what are you thinking! Since he’s the male supporting character, he’s naturally going to forgive her!]

Gu Cheng:

He turned his head and glared at Ye Xiao furiously through gritted teeth: “You, come with me to take Bingtong to the hospital!”

Ye Xiao couldn’t help but roll her eyes: “I still have classes!”

Gu Cheng said expressionlessly: “You only have one class in the afternoon, you’ll have enough time to return after going to the hospital.”

Ye Xiao was speechless.

Why did this man check her schedule so thoroughly?

She realized upon reflection that Gu Cheng must have checked Ye Bingtong’s schedule, and because Ye Xiao attended the same classes as Bingtong, Gu Cheng happened to know hers as well.

Ye Xiao felt torn.

[Ah, what should I choose? If I stay, I might see Pei Yue getting arrested by the police; if I go, I might witness the intense scenes between the male supporting character and the female lead. Tough choice, really tough decision.]

Gu Cheng immediately gave Ye Xiao a murderous look.

This woman, calling him a ‘male supporting character’ at every opportunity, was trying to kill whom!

Luckily for Ye Xiao, she didn’t have to ponder long, because soon enough, the police arrived.

Clearly, Gu Cheng had reported the incident well in advance and the police must have secured conclusive evidence. Without entertaining Pei Yue’s defense, they took him away.

Ye Bingtong watched, feeling somewhat anxious.

But in the current situation, she dared not say much, only pretending to be dead.

“Can we go now?” Gu Cheng glanced at Ye Xiao.

“Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go.” Ye Xiao quickly made her choice.

[I am a melon-eater, wherever there are melons, that’s where I poke my nose. Hehehehe.]

Gu Cheng:

Once this group of people left, the scene immediately became lively.

“Bingtong has a fiancé? Why haven’t I heard about it before?”

“It seems they’ve been keeping it a secret.”

“Ahhh, my goddess.”

“What goddess? She’s even involved with a person like Pei Yue, tsk tsk tsk…”

The image Bingtong had maintained for a long time seemed to be on the verge of collapse at this moment.

They had just arrived at the hospital.

Ye Mingcheng and Du Yaru had rushed over as well.

Seeing Gu Cheng bring Bingtong over, they didn’t ask a single question; it seemed they already knew something, and both of their expressions were very ugly.

Actually.

After hearing Ye Xiao’s true feelings yesterday, Ye Mingcheng, Du Yaru, and Gu Cheng each sought someone to investigate Bingtong’s affairs.

Originally, Bingtong’s relationship with Pei Yue was kept underground, and no one found out about it throughout their entire college period.

But today.

They gave themselves away in the classroom this morning.

Later, when they went to the rooftop, they were caught red-handed.

Here’s what happened.

Ye Mingcheng had bribed Bingtong’s classmates to keep an eye on her.

Du Yaru had placed a bug in the button of Bingtong’s clothes.

Gu Cheng was even harsher; he directly hired a professional to tail them.

As a result.

The professional followed them to the rooftop unnoticed and even recorded a complete video.

Gu Cheng had already given this video to the police, which was why Pei Yue was taken away so quickly!

With intentional injury plus solid evidence, he’s bound to spend a good few days in jail.

“Husband, how come you’re here?” Du Yaru looked at Ye Mingcheng in surprise.

Ye Mingcheng said calmly, “Oh, I was having a check-up here at the hospital, and I happened to see you. What about you?”

Du Yaru quickly said, “Me too.”

Both of them had left early in the morning and had a thorough mental check-up, but they were afraid of having any real issues and didn’t want to worry their other half, so they had come separately.

Now, they could use this as an excuse.

Both thought simultaneously.

“Glad we explained it away. We can’t possibly say that we heard Ye Xiao’s true feelings and thus investigated Bingtong in advance!”

Bingtong had a full set of checks after being sent to the hospital and ended up with just some superficial skin injuries; she only needed to let the wounds heal slowly.

During the check-up, Bingtong was anxiously thinking and had already come up with a way to explain everything.

After the check-up was complete, she looked at everyone weakly and said, “Dad, Mom, Brother Gu, and Xiaoxiao, I’m sorry for worrying you. The doctor said it’s just some superficial skin injuries, there’s nothing to worry about.”

“Oh?” Ye Mingcheng said unperturbedly, “Bingtong, how did you get injured?”

They all knew very well how Bingtong was injured.

But they still wanted to hear what Bingtong would say herself.

Bingtong did not know that Gu Cheng’s people had even recorded a complete video; she said weakly, “It’s actually all a misunderstanding. I accidentally tripped and fell. It was Pei Yue who saved me and took me to the infirmary.”

She looked at Gu Cheng, “So, Brother Gu, you wronged him. Pei Yue is a good person; please ask the police to release him.”

The ward was silent for a moment.

No one spoke.

Only Ye Xiao looked on with a melon-eating expression, waiting to watch the drama unfold.
