One Word Changed, Characters in Chaos

Now that she had dealt with the bug, Ye Bingtong, seeing everyone’s stunned expressions, became confused.

She looked down.

The yellow-green excrement was now smeared all over her hands.

Ye Bingtong’s hands began to tremble slightly.

For a moment, she had a strong urge to chop off her own hand.

It was just a hand, one that had touched bugs and now poop!

And that wasn’t all!

The wound she had drawn on seemed to have peeled at the edges due to her fussing.

She had been pressing hard on it without any reaction at all.

Ye Bingtong thought about these things.

Her lips began to quiver slightly.

Only one thought filled her mind.

What should I do now!

What should I do now!

Could she still pull this off?

In the live broadcast room, the number of viewers had shot up to three million.

The netizens were having such a laugh that their stomachs hurt.

“Hahahaha, I’m dying of laughter! Did you see that? The wound, it’s peeling off! This is definitely a fake injury!”

“I’ve already created a gif of Ye Bingtong catching the bug, DM me if you want it!”

“Hahaha, I was shocked when I saw Ye Bingtong pressing on her own wound. Wasn’t it supposted to be so serious that she couldn’t even move? How come it’s not only movable now, but she’s pressing on it without any sign of pain!”

“Is this Schrödinger’s wound?”

“I can’t anymore, I’m going to laugh myself to death. Just now, my mom asked me why I was going crazy. I showed her the video I recorded, and now she’s squatting in the corner laughing with me.”

“What are these media doing being so clueless, get interviewing already. I’m dying of laughter, this press conference by Ye Bingtong is more entertaining than a TV series!”

Several reporters, looking at the suspicious yellow-green substance on Ye Bingtong’s hands, didn’t dare to take their hands away from their noses.

A reporter said tactfully, “Miss Ye, could you… go wash your hands first?”

As he spoke, he also moved aside a bit in alarm.

It wasn’t just about getting away from Ye Bingtong, but also because…

The bug that Ye Bingtong had just flung away was desperately crawling towards them, ahhhhhhh.

Ye Bingtong’s face turned pale as she tried to say, “I don’t know what happened, I…”

As she attempted to come closer, everyone uniformly backed away.

Ye Bingtong couldn’t help but look at Pei Yue for help.

But she saw Pei Yue also covering his nose tightly, not daring to look at her directly.

Ye Bingtong felt dizziness engulf her.

She staggered into the adjacent washroom and meticulously began to clean her hands.

“Make sure you wash off those on the wound too. Anyway, everyone’s realized it’s a fake injury,” a reporter called out.

Ye Bingtong: “…”

She truly felt desperate now!

Do you all get it?!

Ye Bingtong, biting her teeth and feeling wronged, washed the fake injury until it was completely clean before she came out again.

Just as everyone said.

Her injury had peeled off; there was really no need to continue the pretense.

When Ye Bingtong came out, her arm was back to normal, and the foul smell was gone from her body.

It was only then that people dared approach her.

Ye Bingtong saw everyone’s relieved expressions and her face darkened even more!

Was fate really determined to treat her this way?

Why is her life so tragic!

Ye Bingtong’s eyes quickly filled with tears, “I’m… I’m sorry everyone, I lied about the injury. But, I really did have suicidal thoughts, it’s just that they were discovered in time by my agent.”

Pei Yue’s expression changed, and a sinister premonition suddenly flashed through his mind. Knowing Ye Bingtong, was she about to…

Right after that, Ye Bingtong continued, “I didn’t mean to deceive everyone. But my agent said that only by doing so could we gain everyone’s sympathy, so he found someone to stage this deception. I am at fault, I’ve made a serious mistake in letting my agent go through with these things. I have apologized to everyone.”

Pei Yue’s face turned black as night.

It was indeed Ye Bingtong’s style!

As soon as there was a problem, she would immediately think about shifting the blame to others.

Now it’s great.

He had finally received the blame too.

In front of the screen.

Ye Xiao also watched in amazement.

This world is really quite fantastical.

In the book, Ye Bingtong can’t forget Pei Yue. Even years later upon reunion, she immediately and without hesitation left her family, who had been wholeheartedly caring for her, to once again follow Pei Yue.

But this time?

Pei Yue’s true nature was still the same; he just hadn’t become the omnipotent overlord of his past life.

Has the heroine fallen out of love with him completely?

First, she tried to reconnect with Gu Cheng, and now she has pushed everything onto Pei Yue. Where’s even a trace of love from their past life?

This pair of protagonists, regardless of the ending or how the book portrayed it, their feelings for each other had actually long since been exhausted, hadn’t they?

Ye Bingtong was accustomed to shifting blame.

Not long ago, she successfully made Luo Li take the blame and shut up.

But Pei Yue, was he a man so easily blamed?

He looked at Ye Bingtong with a vaguely chilling gaze and directly said, “Ye Bingtong, do you feel no remorse saying that? It was you who called me with the idea of a fake suicide. Only then did I agree to help you plan it out. Now you’re slinging mud at me, do you really think you can wash your hands of everything?”

Ye Bingtong’s face turned pale, and she couldn’t help but glance at Pei Yue.

What’s wrong with this man?

The most important thing now, wasn’t it to protect her?

He should have, like Luo Li, silently taken the blame. Why suddenly say these things? What does he want to do?

Can’t he do a bit more for her sake?!

Ye Bingtong wore a pitiful expression, “Pei Yue, what are you talking about! How could that be my idea, it was clearly you…”

Ye Bingtong paused, her expression suggesting she was holding back unspeakable secrets.

Pei Yue laughed outright, “Ye Bingtong, do you think I don’t know what kind of person you are? When you called me about faking your own suicide, I just so happened to record the call!”

Ye Bingtong’s complexion changed slightly.

She looked at Pei Yue with a mix of shock and anger.

The villain!

He had been wary of her all along!

Didn’t he consider that if she completely collapsed, where would they earn money in the future?

Foolish, so foolish!

Internally cursing ‘foolish’ countless times, Pei Yue had no intention of indulging her, instead he played the recording of that phone call.

On the phone.

Ye Bingtong sounded nothing like the fragile person she pretended to be.

Her voice was indifferent, even somewhat sinister.

On the call, she clearly laid out the plan for a fake suicide, and of course, Pei Yue had immediately agreed to cooperate.

Neither of them was a good person.

Pei Yue didn’t mind exposing the negative parts of himself; he wasn’t reliant on his face for a living. If Ye Bingtong wanted to drag him down, then she had better be prepared for the backlash.

After all.

Their affections had been exhausted long ago—when Ye Bingtong took initiative to seek out Gu Cheng!
