One Word Changed, Characters in Chaos

Suddenly, Ye Xiao’s sharp eyes caught someone skulking around just the same.

Ye Xiao couldn’t help but be amused.

Gu Yan also looked over, and his expression became very subtle.

Isn’t this Pei Yue, the student who’s been cuckolded and is about to be cuckolded again?

At this moment, the story has not been updated yet.

But.

Ye Xiao saw Pei Yue deliberately leave at the last moment, giving Ye Bingtong the chance to keep the appointment.

She guessed that Pei Yue would definitely come too.

Tsk, tsk, tsk.

She wondered if he could withstand such an exciting scene.

“We need to be careful, try not to be discovered by Pei Yue,” Ye Xiao lowered her voice, “We are just onlookers, he is half a protagonist. The experience of watching is different, we can’t act like we’re part of the drama.”

Gu Yan nodded, “Understood, I’ll come up with a new route. In case we need to move later, we’ll avoid that side.”

Ye Xiao gave Gu Yan a ‘you’re getting the hang of it’ look, and they waited earnestly.

Ye Xiao’s attention was half on the various entrances, and half on the book about Ye Bingtong.

Suddenly.

She was jolted to attention!

The story, it updated!

With the nature of this book, during such critical scenes, it would delay as much as possible.

Now that it had updated, the actions would probably start in one or two minutes.

Time was pressing.

Ye Xiao began to read quickly.

“The lights in Central Park twinkled, shining on the fountain and cloaking it in layers of light.

Gu Cheng pushed the wheelchair, slowly making his way here. He had finally managed to shake off everyone else, he thought, this time, it should be the last farewell, no matter what, he needed to explain things clearly to Ye Bingtong.

He pushed the wheelchair, uncertain where Ye Bingtong was waiting for him.

His gaze flickered.

Suddenly.

A delicate voice tinged with a bit of tremble resonated, ‘Brother Gu.’

Gu Cheng’s whole body trembled.

He couldn’t help but turn around.

He thought.

He had completely given up hope on Ye Bingtong.

But at this moment.

The girl’s eyes were brimming with tears; she stood there, with countless lights behind her, filled with the breath of the mortal world.

A stir went through Gu Cheng’s heart.”

Ye Xiao couldn’t help but reveal a sinister smile.

Hehe.

This part of the story!

Such a critical scene!

The storyline of one book had already been ruined, now, the remaining ones were really getting out of hand.

A crucial scene, huh?

It seems that without drastic measures, Gu Cheng won’t be able to break free from the shackles of the plot!

Gu Cheng, oh Gu Cheng, it’s not that I want to torment you.

This is for your own good.

With no remorse, Ye Xiao modified a character.

That’s all for the updated story for now, she would continue to alter it after the subsequent plot was released.

As she always said.

Tonight, she was determined to leave Gu Cheng with an unforgettable memory!

After changing the character.

Ye Xiao even turned back to confirm with Gu Yan.

“You said Gu Cheng is most afraid of ghosts, right?”

Gu Yan nodded affirmatively, “He’s been scared of ghosts since he was a child. Because of his fear, he dared not sleep alone, and it wasn’t until junior high that he begrudgingly accepted sleeping in a room by himself. Plus, even now, he sleeps with his head covered at night. Just because he feels that if he can’t see, there won’t be any ghosts.”

Ye Xiao nodded, satisfied.

Then her modification of the character should have a significant effect.

Just as the two finished speaking, they almost simultaneously saw Gu Cheng, coming over with the wheelchair.

Luckily.

Their location seemed to be the perfect viewing platform.

So there was no need to move.

When Gu Cheng appeared.

Ye Xiao was already on the lookout for Ye Bingtong.

But.

That’s our female lead for you.

She searched for a long time but just couldn’t find her.

It was not until after Gu Cheng had been searching for a while.

Suddenly.

A voice came from behind.

“Gu Brother.”

Gu Yan and Ye Xiao were both invigorated, looking over together.

Ye Bingtong had popped up from somewhere unexpectedly.

Ye Xiao looked on and couldn’t help but comment, “She clearly also applied makeup to look haggard, but her skills are lacking, nowhere near as natural as the makeup I did for Sister Liu.”

Gu Yan nodded in agreement, “Must be because she’s short on money, those fake eyelashes look pretty cheap.”

Ye Xiao was immediately surprised, “Uncle Gu, you know about these things?”

This didn’t seem like something a straight guy would know.

Gu Yan puffed out his chest with pride, “Just a little.”

He felt secretly relieved in his heart.

Good thing he noticed how skilled Ye Xiao was at makeup and specially went to learn about it. This time, he hadn’t really noticed anything fake or real, but he had an intuition.

Just say it like this, no mistakes.

If the plot wasn’t currently unfolding, Ye Xiao would definitely have discussed this in depth with Gu Yan.

But now she quickly shifted her gaze back.

She personally revised the script!

How could she not pay close attention to it?

In front of the fountain.

The disabled youth.

And the beautiful girl.

Gazing at each other from afar.

Ye Bingtong had indeed applied some light makeup on herself and was wearing a pure white dress.

She was acutely aware that tonight might very well be her last chance.

She must use every means possible to clutch at this straw.

She looked at Gu Cheng, eyes slowly brimming with tears, her whole being emanating a sense of complete fragility.

Gu Cheng stared at Ye Bingtong, his pupils slowly contracted.

What… what did he see?

Ye Xiao watched excitedly.

Although she only changed one word, the system was powerful and should have some effect, right?

She had modified the last sentence of the scene.

The plot went like this.

“The girl’s eyes were filled with tears as she stood there, the myriad lights of the world behind her, filled with the atmosphere of the mortal world.”

Ye Xiao changed one word.

It became.

“…filled with the atmosphere of the Underworld.”

From ‘the mortal world’, changed to ‘the Underworld’!

Wasn’t Gu Cheng scared of ghosts?

Time to give him something thrilling!

In the eyes of Gu Cheng.

Ye Bingtong stood there, her original pity-invoking expression now inexplicably tinged with a sense of eerie foreboding.

Behind her.

It seemed as if a faint white mist was rising from beneath her feet.

And it wasn’t the kind of white mist that floats around immortals.

It was the white mist of the Netherworld!

Don’t ask how Gu Cheng could tell the difference between these two.

Right now, he only had one feeling.

Ghosts!

Ghosts ah!!!!!!!

Gu Cheng started moving his wheelchair, retreating in a slightly panicked manner.

Ye Bingtong didn’t know what was going on, she took a few steps forward, looking at Gu Cheng with tenderness.

Ye Xiao was amused by Gu Cheng’s expression, but before she had enough of the laugh, there was an update in the plot.

Ye Xiao continued to watch.

“Ye Bingtong walked up to Gu Cheng, she squatted down, tears slowly rolling down: ‘Gu Brother, how have you been during this time?’”

Time was of the essence.

Ye Xiao directly changed another word.

“Tears slowly rolling down” was changed to “Blood tears slowly rolling down!

Following the plot, Ye Bingtong indeed hurried to Gu Cheng’s front.

Fear filled Gu Cheng’s eyes.

In his sight, Ye Bingtong’s face resembled a ghostly woman in her torment, and together with her white dress, it was exactly the kind of scene that would appear in his worst nightmares.

How he wanted to flee!

But.

He couldn’t escape!

Ye Bingtong grabbed the wheelchair and then slowly kneeled down.

Gu Cheng tensed up all over.

Help… help me!
