One Word Changed, Characters in Chaos

It always seems that the female protagonist gets things done more easily when destiny lends a hand.

Both of them are from the entertainment circle, and if they were to meet at a work event in the near future, any incident would leave me with only remote control, inevitably feeling like my reach exceeds my grasp.

Why not simply arrange for them to meet now?

I can oversee the whole situation and manipulate the plot a bit.

Of course,

I can’t let them meet alone.

It would be best,

if that La Jingzhou also came along.

In the book,

La Jingzhou didn’t discover Bai Shilan’s secret seduction of second brother until much later.

After finding out, he exuded a domineering aura, playing every trope like imprisonment love, forced love, jealousy, and chasing after his wife like a funeral pyre, which led them to a harmonious ending.

This time,

what if La Jingzhou learned of it ahead of time, or even witnessed Bai Shilan seducing second brother with his own eyes?

Naturally, this certainly wouldn’t affect the lead couple’s relationship.

At most, they might suffer some angsty love for a while but would always reconcile in the end.

But,

if La Jingzhou engaged in a bit of imprisonment play with Bai Shilan, second brother wouldn’t be harassed afterward!

As for any potential revenge from La Jingzhou, the Ye Family now fears nothing.

Through the plot, Ye Xiao already knew that Liu Yan had grown disappointed with La Jingzhou, even starting to take covert action. La Jingzhou has already lost the ally of the Liu Family.

Just him alone,

there’s nothing for the Ye Family to be scared of.

At this thought, Ye Xiao looked at Bai Shilan with a smile, “Are you saying that everything before was a misunderstanding, and that in fact, you want to be friends with me?”

Bai Shilan felt hopeful and quickly nodded, “I was completely deceived by Ye Bingtong. I am a fan of Ye Lin, and she said she was Ye Lin’s sister, which is why I believed her. I never expected she was just a fake, not a real member of the Ye Family at all.”

Ye Xiao lifted her chin slightly, a look of arrogance on her face, “That Ye Bingtong truly excels at using tricks and schemes, it’s normal that you were tricked by her.”

Bai Shilan’s eyes lit up, and her tone became even more obsequious, “Now I know, and fortunately, she was also driven out of the Ye Family and got what she deserved.”

Ye Xiao scoffed with contempt, “She got what she deserved.”

Bai Shilan nodded in agreement, “Indeed. People like Ye Bingtong have nothing but despicable blood flowing in their veins, she…”

Bai Shilan proceeded to curse Ye Bingtong from head to toe on the spot.

Ye Xiao listened with an odd expression on her face.

In those books, these female leads were close friends with deep affection for each other.

Now, however,

the plot in the books had only just started not long ago.

Yet Ye Bingtong, Chen Yueyue, and Bai Shilan had already become sworn enemies.

This was becoming interesting.

Having furiously cursed Ye Bingtong, Bai Shilan then tentatively said, “Xiaoxiao, this misunderstanding has been too big. Look, could I possibly go to the Ye Family and visit uncle and aunt to clarify this misunderstanding with everyone?”

Ye Xiao arched an eyebrow, “I’ll need to see what my family thinks.”

“Then please, help me smooth things over first,” Bai Shilan hastily said, handing over a card while lowering her voice, “There are five hundred thousand in it, I know money doesn’t mean much to you, Xiaoxiao, but consider it a little token of my sincerity.”

“Money, it’s not really important,” Ye Xiao said, quickly taking the card and casually placing it in her backpack.

Bai Shilan’s lips twitched slightly, a hint of disdain flitting across her eyes.

As expected of someone raised in the countryside, her skin proved to be quite thin.

But that’s fine,

since it means she can win over Ye Xiao with money.

“Alright, give me your contact information. I’ll let you know when there’s good news,” Ye Xiao said.

Bai Shilan quickly handed over a business card she had prepared in advance.

Ye Xiao took it and left without another word.

Bai Shilan let out a slight sigh of relief.

It was said that Ye Xiao was highly favored.

Then this matter should be settled.

She had studied Ye Lin, and Ye Lin’s life was very monotonous. Apart from filming, he was just staying at home.

He should have returned to the Ye Family by now.

Going to the Ye Family herself, she would most likely encounter him.

At that time…

Bai Shilan didn’t know what she had thought of, but her face blushed.

At this moment.

The image of La Jingzhou suddenly appeared in her mind.

Bai Shilan couldn’t help but purse her lips.

La Jingzhou said he treated her well, but in reality, he was engaged, and they would be married soon. He wouldn’t marry her!

When she really faced difficulties, he wouldn’t drop everything to be by her side either.

Just like this time. He had come and gone in a hurry, and by now he must be back with his fiancée.

He could have a fiancée.

Then she could also choose a better person!

Bai Shilan thought spitefully, her determination strengthening by the moment.

After dinner that evening,

Ye Xiao said in a seemingly casual manner, “Dad, Mom, I want to bring a friend over to the house to hang out.”

[If I say I want to bring Bai Shilan over for a visit, will it give them a shock?]

Bai Shilan???

The Ye Family members were about to express their welcome when they heard this thought and were stunned on the spot.

When did Bai Shilan become friends with Xiaoxiao?

[Isn’t Bai Shilan trying to hook up with Second Brother? Then let her flex her skills. Later on, we’ll find a way to invite La Jingzhou, letting him see for himself how flirtatious his little darling wife can be.]

Continuing her thoughts, Ye Xiao had now accumulated eight characters, and she would use these characters precisely like a blade. Naturally, the more people there were, the better the cost-effectiveness of using them.

The Ye Family members glanced at each other, instantly understanding.

Ye Xiao’s game was to fight poison with poison.

Worried that Bai Shilan might hook up with Ye Lin?

Rather than letting her do it sneakily in the dark, why not have it under close scrutiny?

And have her sugar daddy witness it all.

This scene… tsk tsk tsk, thrilling.

Ye Lin was a bit dumbfounded.

They wanted Bai Shilan to come over and hit on him?

Damn! Why did it feel like he was being used as a tool?

Unable to help himself, Ye Lin said, “What friend? It might be inconvenient.”

“Second Brother, it’s Bai Shilan,” Ye Xiao said confidently. “Bai Shilan says that the previous incident was a misunderstanding, and she plans to come over to explain it herself. She’s still your fan. You can’t let down a fan’s heart.”

[Hmm, the family must think I’m crazy. How can I convince them about this?]

Ye Xiao was somewhat distressed; making things go as she had envisaged was proving to be difficult.

“Ye Xiao, have you gone mad?” Ye Lin exclaimed. “I’m not familiar with her at all!”

Ye Xiao raised her eyebrows, about to say something.

The voice of Ye Mingcheng rose, “Not being familiar in the past is one thing; can’t you gradually become familiar in the future? Xiaoxiao is right, the most important thing is not to hurt the feelings of the fans.”

Ye Lin:

No.

That’s not what you said last night!

“Since she’s Xiaoxiao’s friend, go ahead and meet her. It surely won’t be a mistake,” Du Yaru also said.

Ye Lin looked at her.

You… didn’t say that last night either.

Ye Bolin nodded, “Perhaps it really was a misunderstanding, let’s listen to Xiaoxiao.”

Ye Lin:

He was completely at a loss for words.
