One Word Changed, Characters in Chaos

Chapter 53: Chapter 30 The Five-Character Deposit

Translator: 549690339

In the following days,

Ye Xiao was living quite leisurely, enjoying her campus life while watching the fun of Chen Yueyue and company.

Qin Mobei, true to form as the domineering CEO who cares about nothing,

Even though Qin Family’s stock price had taken a dive due to his affair with Chen Yueyue, and they were being made fun of by netizens with all sorts of memes,

But,

Qin Mobei didn’t care at all.

He even more openly started to come and go with Chen Yueyue and even took her to the company. In front of all the company employees, they publicly displayed their affection.

The book described,

Poor Qin Family employees, some going to the water cooler to get water would encounter Qin Mobei cornering Chen Yueyue for a forceful kiss against the wall.

Chen Yueyue would act coyly and cry out “don’t” in bashful protest.

Some who went to the CEO’s office to report on work would see Chen Yueyue, clothes disheveled, shyly getting up from Qin Mobei’s embrace.

Qin Mobei would wear a devilishly playful smile, saying, “Little baby, are you feeling shy already?”

What those employees were thinking, Ye Xiao could not know. But imagining it… it probably wasn’t too pleasant.

Regardless of the mental state of Qin Family’s employees, Qin Mobei and Chen Yueyue were definitely playing it up and having a good time.

Ye Xiao also discovered.

Her elder brother Ye Bolin and Gu Yan seemed to have secretly started making their moves.

Taking advantage of Qin Mobei being busy with his true love, they were covertly poaching Qin Family’s employees.

The same chief secretary who defected to Ye Bolin’s side in her previous life, seemed to be wavering once more.

Another thing that caught Ye Xiao’s attention was.

During these recent days in the plot,

The child in Chen Yueyue’s belly faced several dangers.

Once, almost hit by someone.

Another time, she had food poisoning.

All these occurrences seemed overly frequent.

The book didn’t explain the reasons, but instead made them part of Qin Mobei and Chen Yueyue’s play, focusing on how Qin Mobei was so worried about Chen Yueyue, and how, after averting the dangers, they were so happy and tightly embraced each other.

It reminded Ye Xiao of the indiscernible coldness in Ye Bolin’s eyes when he found out the truth and looked at Chen Yueyue’s belly.

She couldn’t help but speculate.

Could it be that her elder brother was behind it?

If it were a normal child, it wouldn’t survive all that trouble.

But,

This child is the most important character in the book, besides the male and female leads.

If he can’t be born, the impact on the plot would be cataclysmic.

Ye Xiao suspected.

This important character might be protected by some cosmic force, preventing his removal by such crude methods.

However…

Ye Xiao blinked her eyes, thinking if it were really Ye Bolin making the move, her elder brother was truly no ordinary person.

In her previous life, his fall to the dark side had caused the main characters quite some trouble, but fortunately, they had a genius son. With the help of their son, they overcame each hurdle.

In this life, knowing the truth in advance, Ye Bolin had started to lay out his plans against Qin Family early on.

What about the child?

Even if he was born safely, it would still be seven years before he could become any sort of top hacker.

Seven years!

Could Qin Family hold on that long?

But,

Ye Xiao didn’t plan to get involved in these matters; she was content to just watch the drama unfold.

Her bound system required her not to go OOC, and she could not disclose the plot to anyone else; she was also required not to actively interfere with key plot points, except through the method of modifying words.

Perhaps this was because, after all, she was an outsider.

However,

If Ye Bolin and the others took actions on their own, that was not her concern.

Her elder brother might not understand why, but he had suddenly become aware.

But this was ultimately a good thing; the plots of these several books were interconnected, and both male and female leads belonged to a united interest group.

If Qin Mobei’s side could be suppressed, it would also be very helpful for her to change her own ending.

Over the past few days, Ye Xiao had been checking the system backend, and she hadn’t been modifying the plot recently. Until today, she had accumulated five characters!

A whole five characters indeed.

She could already rewrite a short sentence.

If applied skillfully, modifying one character at a time could completely change the direction of the plot.

Looking at the upcoming plot updates in the system.

Ye Xiao felt that she would probably need to use this quota very soon.

Because.

Li Mingyu was coming!

Li Mingyu’s arrival at the school was even earlier than in the original book.

Ye Xiao didn’t know why there was this change, but for her, any change was a good thing.

In the upcoming plot.

Li Mingyu would openly search for the female lead of her new drama at the school. Another actress, Bai Shilan, also arrived.

Bai Shilan, also a graduate of the Beijing Performing Arts Institute and now a rather famous internet celebrity actress, had caused quite a stir by coming together with Li Mingyu.

Almost all the eligible female students in the school signed up, wanting to give it a shot.

What if, by some stroke of luck, they became Li Mingyu’s female lead?

Ye Xiao and Ye Bingtong went too.

And indeed, the female leads seemed to attract each other.

When Ye Bingtong stepped out for some fresh air, she happened to meet Bai Shilan by the lakeside seeking solitude, and the two hit it off and chatted merrily.

The plot stated that Bai Shilan was wearing sunglasses, so Ye Bingtong didn’t recognize her.

But later, Ye Bingtong mentioned she had a brother who was a film emperor and even showed Bai Shilan a photo of them together. Whether Bai Shilan recognized her or not was open to interpretation.

Bai Shilan suddenly became even more enthusiastic towards Ye Bingtong and, upon learning that Ye Bingtong was also there to audition, cheerfully told her to wait for good news.

Afterward, Bai Shilan spoke highly of Ye Bingtong in front of Li Mingyu.

It’s just a pity that Li Mingyu was not easily influenced, so Bai Shilan hinted to Ye Bingtong that Li Mingyu’s little grandson, accompanied by a nanny, was playing in the school.

And as a result.

The child happened to face an accident, and Ye Bingtong just happened to save him, thereby gaining Director Li’s gratitude and securing the role.

Subsequent plots were still being inputted.

Ye Xiao pursed her lips.

Truly a crappy plot.

Just so happened to meet the other female lead.

Just so happened to bring up her film emperor brother.

And just so happened to save a child in danger.

So many just so happeneds!

However.

Ye Xiao also noticed.

This lousy book would automatically glorify the male and female protagonists.

For example.

The fact that Ye Bingtong caused Lin Yun to become depressed in her childhood, and that she knew all along she wasn’t biologically related to the Ye family, wasn’t even mentioned in the book.

It’s possible that the author of the book hadn’t thought that much into it.

But now.

This was a real, complete world.

Many logical issues would be automatically filled in.

For instance, in the book Ye Bingtong is completely unaware that she’s not blood-related to the Ye family, but with annual school physical check-ups revealing different blood types, how could they possibly keep it hidden?

The book might gloss over it, but in the real world, the necessity arises to patch this bug, hence the plot where Chen Yueyue helps Ye Bingtong modify her medical report comes into play.

So, this part of the plot.

Ye Xiao wondered if all these coincidences were truly just coincidences?

Especially with that child, just so coincidentally waiting to be saved by Ye Bingtong?

Ye Xiao looked at her quota of five characters, feeling somewhat relieved. She wouldn’t use character changes to cheat and interfere with Li Mingyu’s choice. As long as the result was fair, she would accept it.

But if Ye Bingtong thought to use any underhanded tricks.

Then, I’m sorry.

Five characters are enough to unveil all her hypocrisy!
