Chapter 114: Chapter 91: How Did You Co Back?
The next day.
When Pei Yue left for work, Ye Bingtong quickly got out of bed. She took out the new phone card she had bought at the mobile store yesterday and then called Gu Cheng’s cellphone, a number etched into her mory. Her original number had been blocked by Gu Cheng; now this was the only way.
Soon, the call was answered.
“Hello?” Gu Cheng’s voice held so confusion.
Tears imdiately welled up in Ye Bingtong’s eyes, and she couldn’t help sobbing as she said, “Gu brother, it’s ! Bingtong!”
On the other end of the line.
Gu Cheng went silent.
His hand trembled.
Ye Bingtong.
She had really co looking for him.
Gu Cheng hardly had ti for his own emotions.
The prophecy of Ye Xiao and the warning from his elder brother echoed first in his mind.
Especially his brother’s warning…
Rembering the icy look in Gu Yan’s eyes, Gu Cheng couldn’t help shivering.
“Gu brother! I was wrong, I was so terribly wrong. I thought I had found true love, but actually…” Ye Bingtong began pouring her heart out to Gu Cheng while crying.
On the other side.
Ye Xiao, who had been following the book about Ye Bingtong closely, noticed the update to the plot imdiately.
Reading the section where Ye Bingtong tearfully implores and Gu Cheng softens, eventually agreeing to et her, Ye Xiao narrowed her eyes.
This part of the story was clearly marked as a key scene.
Now, there seed to be more and more key scenes.
The difference between key and ordinary scenes was not simply that key scenes could only be altered by using a limited number of edits.
Furthermore, characters in key scenes are subject to more restrictions, and are compelled to develop the emotions dictated by the script, to speak the lines from the plot.
If she didn’t edit it,
Regardless of whether it was Gu Cheng’s own will or not, under the script’s control, he would definitely soften his heart and agree to et with Ye Bingtong.
Should she change it?
Ye Xiao’s fingers tapped lightly on the desktop.
Suddenly.
She smiled.
Although it was a key scene, it wasn’t completely inflexible.
Hadn’t Uncle Gu once broken through the constraints of the plot?
So, as long as Gu Cheng was determined enough, he could transcend the script.
If he couldn’t manage it,
Then let him follow her script.
Ye Xiao thought coldly.
She didn’t plan to edit the part of the script where Gu Cheng ets Ye Bingtong; instead, she had decided to create an unforgettable night of their eting for Gu Cheng.
But there was still sothing that needed to be corrected.
There was a line in the plot.
“Pei Yue boarded the bus and arrived at the store. His situation had improved a lot by now, and he was confident that as long as he worked hard enough, he would definitely be able to provide a good life for Bingtong. Bingtong seed unhappy last night, so today he decided to advance so of his wages and buy Bingtong a gift.”
Pei Yue’s inner thoughts, coupled with the portrayal of Ye Bingtong crying to Gu Cheng, was surprisingly bitter.
Ye Xiao imdiately made a change to the plot.
“Pei Yue boarded the bus and arrived at his ho.”
Consequently.
Pei Yue had just boarded the bus when suddenly, he leaped up as if propelled by a spring and jumped off the bus that had just started.
“Are you trying to get yourself killed?!” the driver couldn’t help but shout out, as the bus then sped away.
Pei Yue was sowhat dazed.
He was sowhat at a loss to understand his own behavior.
This bus ca only every 30 minutes; he always tid his departure ticulously so that he wouldn’t be late for work.
Now, barely making it onto the bus, he had inexplicably jumped back off?
Unable to figure it out, Pei Yue simply decided to return ho to rest a while.
Pei Yue had just reached his front door when he heard Ye Bingtong’s crying.
Sothing tightened reflexively at his heartstrings.
Was it Bingtong?
Was she crying?
Pei Yue wanted to push the door and go in.
The next mont.
He heard Ye Bingtong’s voice.
“Gu brother. I can’t stand living like this for even one more day. It’s been so long, so very long, since I’ve had a decent al. My body is covered in bruises from his beatings, Gu brother, I’m truly in so much pain.”
Then it was Ye Bingtong’s restrained sobs.
Pei Yue’s hand stiffened.
A glimr of darkness flashed through the depths of his eyes.
He was not a good man.
He knew it.
But he genuinely liked Ye Bingtong.
So,
he was willing to strive hard and was also willing to share the fruits of his efforts with Ye Bingtong.
He thought,
that she appreciated it as much as he did.
But the outco,
she had been harboring dissatisfaction all along!
Gu Cheng?
That must be her ex-fiancé!
Indeed,
he’s from the Gu Family.
With just a little sothing slipping from their fingers, it was enough for soone like him to make a fortune for a lifeti.
Previously, Ye Bingtong would rather give up on Gu Cheng to be with him.
He felt moved and distressed.
But now?
There was only endless irony!
“Gu Cheng, over all these years, you’ve been the kindest to . Do you rember? When you just had the car accident and broke your leg, you had high fevers every day and were utterly dejected. It was I who stayed by your side the whole ti, helping you to recover. Gu Cheng, when I think back to those days now, even those mories are dear to ,” Ye Bingtong played the emotional card.
Pei Yue did not go inside; he just listened expressionlessly.
He wanted to hear what she planned to do!
Leave him?
Get back together with Gu Cheng?
Pei Yue’s hands clenched tightly into fists.
“Gu Cheng, I don’t expect there to be a future for us. However, these days, I’ve been really worried about you, and I also miss our past together. No matter what, please let see you, at least to apologize to you in person,” Ye Bingtong said with apparent sincerity.
Pei Yue continued to listen.
After a while,
a hint of joy flickered in Ye Bingtong’s eyes, and she said softly, “Alright. Let’s et tonight. Can I wait for you at our usual park? Right beneath that fountain; I really want to see you properly.”
After saying that,
Ye Bingtong reluctantly ended the call.
She took a deep breath, a hint of joy flickering in her eyes.
She just knew it.
Gu Cheng still had feelings for her.
His agreent to et her ant there was still hope between them.
As long as she could get back together with Gu Cheng,
it would render Ye Xiao’s effort to marry into the Gu Family aningless. Gu Yan would lose interest in her, and her parents would accept her back into the family for the sake of the Gu Family’s face.
By then,
she would let Ye Xiao see who was the one to lose everything this ti.
Pei Yue stood silently at the doorway.
He waited for a long ti.
Suddenly, he pushed the door open.
Ye Bingtong, who was basking in joy, stiffened.
She slowly turned her head, her voice tinged with panic, “Pei Yue? Why are you back!”
Pei Yue pretended to be oblivious, a faint smile on his face, “What’s wrong? I misjudged the bus schedule and missed it. The next one isn’t for another half hour, so I just decided to co back ho and wait.”
“Is… is that so?” Ye Bingtong’s face continued to stiffen.
Pei Yue smiled and purposely asked, “Yes. What’s wrong? You look pale. Did sothing happen?”
“Nothing. I just didn’t sleep well last night,” Ye Bingtong quickly squeezed out a smile.
She observed Pei Yue’s expression, thinking he must not have heard her phone call, and slowly began to relax.
Tonight,
if things go well,
she wouldn’t return to this place anymore.
If they don’t go well…
No, they absolutely will go well.
She knew best how to get a hold of Gu Cheng!!
