One Word Changed, Characters in Chaos

This was after she had scrutinized all the seats and meticulously picked this one!

Thinking this, Ye Xiao couldn’t help but give Gu Yan a glare.

[I spent half the day finding this golden movie-viewing seat, and this guy just comes along for the ride without contributing anything.]

Gu Yan glanced at Ye Xiao.

Then, unhurriedly, he fished a pistachio out of his suit pocket.

Ye Xiao:

“It’s not nice to always eat your sunflower seeds, so I brought some snacks myself,” said Gu Yan.

Ye Xiao’s face showed a look of bewildered amusement, “You use such an expensive suit to hold pistachios?”

This didn’t seem like something a domineering CEO would do.

Gu Yan chuckled softly, “It’s you who taught me that the most expensive clothes are designed for use. I call this making perfect use of every detail.”

“Makes sense,” Ye Xiao nodded in agreement, and then started munching on the pistachios.

She looked even more like a little squirrel.

Gu Yan beside her was leisurely cracking open nuts for her, thoroughly enjoying himself.

Ye Xiao, however, didn’t pay any attention to Gu Yan’s actions; she was too excited continuing to watch the drama unfold.

Bai Shilan didn’t notice anything amiss and continued to coo, “Ye, do you still remember me? We’ve worked together before. When I was just starting out, I played a maid for the heroine in your show. You were so caring to me back then, and I’ve always been grateful.”

While speaking, Bai Shilan was casting flirtatious glances and inching closer to Ye Lin.

Ye Lin revealed a look of horror, taking a big step back, and his entire face screamed rejection.

He was questioning all his life choices now!

Could he like Bai Shilan??? Was he out of his mind?? Better to just kill him now!

Ye Lin’s movement was so sudden that he knocked over the wine table behind him with a bang.

The commotion was so loud that it immediately attracted everyone’s attention.

People looked over curiously.

In the entertainment circle, Ye Lin is known as the second son of the Ye Family. This isn’t news to the people outside, but those within the same social circle have heard the rumors.

To them, this wasn’t anything new.

But… Bai Shilan?

What was she doing here?

Did she rank high enough to attend such a banquet?

It should be noted that the guests Ye Bolin invited were all his business friends. Someone like Bai Shilan, at best termed a top celebrity, could also be deemed as nothing more than an ornament.

And she was invited? And seemed to have a close relationship with Ye Lin?

The crowd’s eyes flickered, and while it seemed like everyone was having normal wine-tasting conversations, their gazes couldn’t help but drift over there.

Bai Shilan, as everyone knows, was La Jingzhou’s golden canary.

So why was Bai Shilan now chasing after Ye Lin?

Ye Bolin side-eyed the situation and sent a message to Liu Yan: “You can come over now.”

Liu Yan replied with a straightforward “ok.”

“Ye, about your brother…” someone couldn’t help but probe.

Ye Bolin put on a clueless face: “I don’t know either. Bai Shilan was invited by Xiaoxiao, who seems to think of her as a close friend. Huh, why is she here and not looking for Xiaoxiao, but instead chasing after Ye Lin?”

Ye Bolin appeared genuinely puzzled.

The person nearby caught on to the hint and exchanged a knowing look with others.

Ye Xiao was still too na?ve.

After all, she’s been kept away in the countryside for years; her nature was simply too innocent.

Bai Shilan approaching Ye Xiao to become friends? That was hardly the case; her real target was Ye Lin.

This was getting interesting.

La Jingzhou’s golden canary was seeking a change of sponsor?

Immediately, everyone’s expression turned into that of gleeful anticipation for the unfolding drama.

Everyone was watching the show, except for Ye Lin, who was in total meltdown.

Ye Lin gritted his teeth, extending his hand to block Bai Shilan, “Don’t move! Yes! Just stop! Stand right there, don’t come any closer!”

He was on the verge of insanity.

Bai Shilan kept talking and posturing, batting her eyes suggestively at him.

Ye Lin’s entire body was shuddering!

Help! Save me!

Someone help him!

He sent a plea for help towards Ye Bolin.

Ye Bolin caught the signal and then coolly looked away.

Hmm.

Didn’t see anything, didn’t see anything at all.

Before La Jingzhou and Liu Yan arrive, let Ye Lin sacrifice a bit of his charm.

Ye Bolin just looked away…

Ye Lin immediately felt like he was forsaken by the whole world, despair in his eyes.

Ahhh! Why must he suffer like this!

Can I even live through this day?

Mom, I want to go back to the film crew!

Ye Lin howled inwardly without cease.

“Ye bro, what’s wrong with you?” Bai Shilan was puzzled and slowly approached Ye Lin.

Ye Lin was going insane.

Bai Shilan was dressed normally in every respect.

But it was the look in her eyes that seemed off somehow, making her whole appearance strange no matter how one looked at her.

Especially those eyes.

Bare and intense, as if she wanted to devour him whole.

Ye Lin couldn’t take it anymore and turned to run.

Bai Shilan, not knowing what had happened, continued to call out coquettishly, “Ye bro, Ye bro, what’s the matter with you?”

She chased after him throughout the entire scene.

Ye Lin was about to lose his mind.

Give him a break!

Can’t you just give him a break?

Aaaah!

Ye Bolin raised an eyebrow.

This Ye Lin, his capacity to cope was wanting.

She chases, you flee, nowhere to hide?

That won’t do.

With just a look from Ye Bolin.

Several servants of the Ye Family entered the scene, creating some artificial obstacles for Ye Lin.

And so.

Ye Lin was stopped.

Bai Shilan successfully caught up to him.

Ye Lin:

He looked at Ye Bolin in despair.

He just wanted to ask one question.

Why?

They were brothers by blood!

Was there a deep-seated hatred between them?

Why do this to him?

Ye Bolin looked innocent.

He was helpless too.

Just hang in there a bit longer, and you’ll soon be free.

“Ye bro.” The devilish voice of Bai Shilan sounded from behind: “What in the world is wrong with you?”

Ye Lin stiffened and turned around slowly.

He saw Bai Shilan throwing him a flirtatious wink.

Ye Lin couldn’t hold back, suddenly felt his stomach churn, and turned around to vomit violently.

The smile on Bai Shilan’s face froze.

Ye Bolin was dumbfounded.

Everyone else turned their heads with increased frequency.

Ye Xiao was completely stunned.

[No way, no way. Is second brother’s endurance really that weak?]

It was just a change of one word, wasn’t it?

Is there such a big difference between the aura of youth and the aura of brothels?

Second brother can’t even handle this much?

Oh my gosh.

No way, no way, better eat something tasty to calm my nerves.

Ye Xiao reached out to grab some sunflower seeds.

But she found nothing.

Ye Xiao looked down.

Huh.

She had been watching the drama too intently.

During this short time.

The sunflower seeds and pistachios had been shelled, neatly arranged on a plate.

Ye Xiao glanced at Gu Yan.

Gu Yan raised an eyebrow: “Nothing to do, no need to thank me.”

Ye Xiao’s expression immediately became conflicted.

[But! Shelled sunflower seeds and pistachios are soulless!]

Gu Yan’s expression stiffened.

He silently took out another handful from his pocket and placed it in front of Ye Xiao.

Only then was Ye Xiao satisfied, happily cracking them and eating away, a true feast for both her eyes and mouth.
