Ye Mingcheng and Du Yaru exchanged a glance, both sensing a whiff of gossip.
Ye Xiao was furious!
What was going on!
She was just enjoying the drama, how did she suddenly become the center of it?
“Sorry.” Ye Xiao blinked, adopting an innocent façade, “I’m still a student, so I can’t add strangers’ contact information.”
Stranger…
Gu Yan’s eyebrows twitched slightly, his voice soft as he introduced himself, “My name is Gu Yan, 28 years old. Gender: male, marital status: unmarried. Hobby: making money.”
Ye Xiao:
There were such astounding hobbies out there.
“So, we’re not strangers anymore,” Gu Yan said at a leisurely pace.
Gu Cheng looked up, his face a picture of shock.
What was happening.
His older brother acted as if he had come to meet a marriage prospect!
Was he actually interested in Ye Xiao?
Ye Xiao managed a strained smile, “But you probably don’t know much about me; we’re still strangers.”
Gu Yan stopped in his tracks and asked earnestly, “Alright. I’d like to hear more.”
He watched Ye Xiao quietly, his expression as if to say, start your self-introduction now.
Ye Xiao was stunned.
Was this man’s skin too thick?
Ye Xiao glanced instinctively at Ye Mingcheng and Du Yaru.
The couple was engrossed in the gossip, but when Ye Xiao looked their way, they immediately averted their gaze, busying themselves straightening collars and fidgeting with buttons, a picture of busyness.
Ye Xiao was grinding her teeth.
Gu Yan, however, put away his phone, “Since Miss Ye is cautious, I won’t insist. I’m sure we’ll meet again soon.”
Gu Yan nodded to the crowd and then pushed Gu Cheng to leave.
Bingtong watched Gu Yan’s retreating figure, her teeth clenched in anger.
Originally, when Gu Yan and Gu Cheng’s father was alive, there was a marriage arrangement with the Ye Family.
After their father passed away early, leaving behind a mess, Ye Mingcheng didn’t go back on the agreement, still honoring the marriage arrangement. But then, Gu Yan soon demonstrated his formidable capabilities, and the Gu Family not only recovered but thrived beyond its former glory.
The marriage arrangement between the two families was consequently put back on the agenda.
The Gu Family had two sons, and for an alliance, either son would do.
Initially, Bingtong found Gu Yan, the new business legend, more desirable compared to Gu Cheng.
She had even fantasized about being fought over by the two brothers.
But as it turned out…
Gu Yan was an unfeeling monster who completely ignored her advances.
In the end, the arranged marriage was settled between herself and Gu Cheng.
As time went on, Bingtong gradually forgot those adolescent whims.
But Gu Yan…
Gu Yan, who had so disdainfully ignored her!
How dare he take the initiative to ask for Ye Xiao’s contact information?
Ye Xiao was nothing but a Ye Family blood relative; otherwise, she was utterly worthless!
A spiteful light flickered in Bingtong’s eyes.
She bowed her head, gripping the bedsheet tightly.
It took a while before she could control her emotions, then she spoke slowly, “Mom and Dad, I need to go to the police station.”
Right.
Gu Yan and Gu Cheng were of no importance.
What mattered was Pei Yue.
Thinking of Pei Yue suffering in detention, she was overwhelmed with heartache.
Ye Mingcheng and Du Yaru’s expressions immediately darkened.
Ye Mingcheng’s voice turned cold, “Bingtong. A thug like Pei Yue deserves a lesson. Are you really going to see him?”
“He’s not the person you think he is; you don’t know him at all,” Bingtong raised her voice suddenly.
She felt frustrated that nothing was going her way today, and the irritation made her want to lash out.
For a troublemaker, her usually obedient daughter was even raising her voice at them…
Ye Mingcheng and Du Yaru were at a loss for words.
“I’m leaving!” Bingtong bit her teeth, ready to storm out.
Ye Mingcheng suppressed his heartache and said calmly, “If you insist on associating with that thug, from now on, don’t acknowledge me as your father!”
Bingtong’s steps faltered, then, without looking back, she rushed out.
At this moment, she
felt like the fearless warrior from the stories.
Pei Yue was waiting for her to come to the rescue.
Even if it meant defying the entire world, she wouldn’t hesitate!
Watching Bingtong leave,
Ye Mingcheng’s shoulders suddenly slumped, and he seemed to age instantly.
Ye Xiao sighed inwardly, but on the outside, she was all sharp and sarcastic, “Mom and Dad, look at you two, after raising her for so many years, what have you raised?”
“Ah, the male lead and the heroine can’t be separated. The more they’re opposed, the more resolute they become. Yet, ’tis a pity for the parents’ hearts in this world, they won’t let Bingtong make mistakes. The more they obstruct, the more the couple will hold a grudge. Once that ‘little brat’ becomes a domineering CEO, the Ye Family will still face calamity.”
Ye Xiao knew in her heart that some things were inevitably unchangeable.
Like now.
The plot had already undergone a huge transformation.
The male side character had broken off the engagement with the heroine ahead of time.
But Ye Xiao glanced at the book.
Because of the change in the plot, the story within the book had also updated automatically.
Certain parts indeed differed.
But the final outcome remained the same, the male and female leads happy together, and the Ye Family destroyed.
Hearing Ye Xiao’s silent thoughts,
Ye Mingcheng and Du Yaru both shuddered.
They had initially been skeptical about Ye Xiao’s inner voice, but they couldn’t help feeling relieved that they had investigated it.
The results proved
that Ye Xiao wasn’t speaking nonsense.
Bingtong actually had a deep relationship with that ‘little brat.’
So,
will this ‘little brat’ truly become a domineering CEO?
And will he really destroy the Ye Family years later?
Having raised Bingtong for so many years, they indeed had feelings for her.
But after today’s events, they were too disappointed.
All they wanted was to pull Bingtong out of the mire, but instead, they incurred her hatred, leading to their destruction.
Fine, then they would let go.
They wanted to see what kind of ending Bingtong and that ‘little brat’ would have!
Ye Mingcheng and Du Yaru were feeling somewhat sorrowful, but having Ye Xiao with them was comforting.
Despite her outwardly arrogant and domineering demeanor, they felt reassured knowing Xiaoxiao’s heart.
They liked that Xiaoxiao used such an exterior to shield herself; had they not heard her inner voice, they might have misunderstood her.
Luckily, the heavens took pity on them, bringing Xiaoxiao into their lives and allowing them to hear her inner thoughts.
Xiaoxiao seemed to know some things that ordinary people didn’t.
As long as they followed their daughter’s hints, changing their destiny was no tall order!
But this matter, fantastical as it may sound, was best kept to themselves, never to be discovered by others.
“Our precious daughter just ran off like that, aren’t you going to follow her? I, for one, want to go see what the fuss is about,” Ye Xiao continued facetiously.
“Gossip, gossip, I want to see the gossip.”
Ye Mingcheng looked at Ye Xiao somewhat helplessly, “My precious daughter, isn’t that you? Your afternoon class will start soon, come on, let’s take you back to school first.”
Ye Xiao was taken aback, her expression revealing surprise.
Was Ye Mingcheng calling her his precious daughter?
And he wanted to personally take her to school?
This was wrong!
According to the book, because of Ye Xiao’s personality, the Ye Family had never been particularly close to her from beginning to end!
Why this sudden change of heart?
“Let Bingtong handle her own issues. Your studies are more important,” Du Yaru also said.
Ye Xiao looked at the time reluctantly, realizing she was almost late.
All because of Gu Cheng.
Being so slow and indecisive! He wasted her time!
And then there was Gu Yan!
With such thick skin, he also took up quite a bit of her time!
The Gu brothers, without a doubt, were toxic.
