One Word Changed, Characters in Chaos

Chapter 6: Some Guilt

Translator: 549690339

Ye Bingtong glanced at Ye Xiao, a flicker of disdain flashing in the depths of her eyes.

She felt that Ye Xiao’s behavior in actively cozying up was all in an effort to curry favor with Big Brother.

But was that useful?

Big Brother had always cherished her the most!

Moreover, she and Sister Yueyue were the best of friends!

No matter what Ye Xiao did, it couldn’t shake her position in Big Brother’s heart.

Ye Bingtong smiled faintly and said deliberately, “Big Brother, such great news should be shared with Father and Mother too. Tomorrow, I’ll invite Sister Yueyue for afternoon tea to properly congratulate her.”

Having said that, Ye Bingtong gave Ye Xiao a provocative look.

She wanted to tell Ye Xiao,

So what if you’re the real daughter?

There was only one darling in this family, and that was her!

Ye Xiao looked at Ye Bingtong and smiled faintly.

[Understood, understood, you and Chen Yueyue are best friends, right! For your dear friend, of course you have to stab your brother a few times. When you meet tomorrow, Chen Yueyue won’t be able to endure her inner torment. She’ll tell you that the child isn’t Big Brother’s biological child. After hearing Chen Yueyue’s story, you’ll weep for the sake of her love story and even advise her to marry Big Brother first before finding the child’s real father, so as to avoid any scandal once the baby is born.]

[Later, after you find the child’s real father, I believe Big Brother too will be moved by your love and voluntarily step aside to let you be together. Is that right? Hehe. It must be said, not only is Chen Yueyue’s tragic love touching, but your friendship is also incredibly moving.]

In her mind, Ye Xiao was ruthlessly mocking.

She just couldn’t understand why Heaven had to treat her this way!

There was a period in the past when sister-themed stories were particularly popular.

The world she had traversed into this time, according to the plot, featured heroines who were all good sisters and best friends in several books.

They were either deeply entwined in tragic romances or indulged in sweet, pampered affections. Different books often had them cross appearances.

Anyway, their emotions were profoundly affecting. As for the supporting characters,

They might as well be dead.

So,

What’s wrong with stabbing her own Big Brother a few times for the sake of a friend?

It was all standard procedure!

Ye Bolin took Ye Xiao’s inner voice to heart, and his face grew even darker!

Ye Bingtong gave Ye Xiao a challenging look and said coyly, “Big Brother, I want to eat porridge.”

Ye Bolin’s mind was preoccupied with those inner voices, and he ladled a spoonful absentmindedly. However, as he went to feed her, his mind wandered off, and he ended up directing the spoon toward Ye Bingtong’s nose.

“Ah!” Ye Bingtong exclaimed in surprise.

[Hahahaha.]

In his head, Ye Xiao’s devilish laughter almost exploded his brain!

“Big Brother…” Ye Bingtong looked up at Ye Bolin with a wronged expression.

Ye Bolin, reminded of Ye Xiao’s inner voice and looking at Ye Bingtong’s usually heart-wrenching expression, felt his heart twinge painfully.

He said soothingly, “It’s about time. I’ll take you to school.”

Speaking of which, it was quite coincidental.

Ye Xiao and Ye Bingtong attended the same drama school.

The Ye Family became aware of issues because of a school physical examination.

Of course,

Ye Xiao did not find this to be a coincidence at all.

Without being at the same school,

How would one show how evil the female antagonist was and how wonderful the heroine was!

And how else would the heroine manage to slap her own face in all aspects! After all, as a pathetic, contrasting female antagonist, she was miserably crushed by the heroine, as tragically as could be.

“It seems Xiaoxiao hasn’t finished eating yet,” Ye Bingtong said, wiping her nose, in a dainty tone.

So, there was no need to take Ye Xiao along!

This time, it was still after Ye Xiao came back, when they made their first appearance at school.

Ye Bingtong wanted everyone to know.

Even if the real daughter had returned,

she was still the favored one.

So this time, she hoped that Berlin would only take her to school.

“Right, I haven’t finished eating, you all go ahead,” Ye Xiao said while eating her breakfast, acting nonchalant.

[As the supporting female character, I’m aware of my role! It’s nothing but all the family drivers coincidentally being on leave, mom and dad coincidentally not at home, and also having no money on me, I can only walk to school, then get ridiculed by everyone as a country bumpkin, and not valued by the Ye Family at all. What’s there to make of it! In the future, there will be plenty more days like this.]

While she ranted to herself, Ye Xiao sighed deeply and then turned her sorrow into appetite, burying her head and eating voraciously.

[If I don’t eat up, I won’t have the energy to walk the long distance later!]

The expression on Ye Bolin’s face froze for a moment.

He watched Ye Xiao, who was buried in her meal, and could not help but purse his lips.

Ye Xiao… was his own little sister, after all.

Actually, what had she done wrong?

Today, if he hadn’t heard Ye Xiao’s inner thoughts, he probably would have really just taken Ye Bingtong to school.

And likely, he would have backed up Ye Bingtong, telling everyone that she would always be his most beloved sister.

But what about Ye Xiao, walking all the way to school?

What kind of criticism would she face!

The tone of Ye Xiao’s inner voice was not one of sadness; it even carried a hint of mockery.

For some reason, Ye Bolin felt a pang of discomfort.

She was probably just… desperately hiding her true feelings.

“Big brother, then let’s go ahead,” Ye Bingtong urged impatiently.

Ye Bolin glanced at her and said calmly, “Isn’t our driver off today? Xiaoxiao can’t go to school alone, wait for her.”

Huh?

Ye Xiao looked up in surprise at Ye Bolin.

Her big brother, who was only interested in business, actually noticed such a small matter?

Seeing the surprised look in Ye Xiao’s eyes made Ye Bolin feel a twinge of sadness.

He thought of his own initial aggressiveness and felt a slight sense of guilt, softening his voice and taking all the money out of his wallet, along with a credit card.

“Take this cash and card. If there’s an emergency, you should be prepared. This is a supplementary card to my account, there’s no limit on it. If there’s anything you like, just buy it yourself.”

“Big brother!!” Ye Bingtong looked at Ye Bolin with disbelief.

Hadn’t their brother returned to support her?

Why was he being so nice to Ye Xiao!

Even she didn’t have a supplementary card with unlimited credit!

As soon as Ye Bolin took out the card, he actually felt a bit of regret. After all, giving an unlimited credit card to Ye Xiao, if she spent recklessly, that would not be good. It wasn’t the money he worried about, but the concern that Ye Xiao might be taken advantage of.

[What’s going on? Wasn’t big brother supposed to back Bingtong? Shouldn’t he be mocking and sneering at me? This isn’t logical!]

Ye Xiao’s inner thoughts resonated in Ye Bolin’s mind.

Ye Bolin’s heart trembled; for some reason, he felt guilty.

He indeed wanted to support Ye Bingtong, and he did plan on giving this sister a harsh lesson.

[Although Bingtong hurt her hand playing the piano herself, shouldn’t big brother be scolding me without clarifying the facts?]

Ye Xiao was puzzled.

In the book, even without her changing a single word, Bingtong’s hand was still injured, claiming that she hurt her hand feeling nervous trying to play a difficult piece at Ye Xiao’s insistence.

And because of that, Ye Bolin scolded the female supporting character and has held a grudge against her ever since.

“Big brother, I want one too. My hand is injured; I should also buy a bag to reward myself,” Ye Bingtong said coquettishly.

She purposely mentioned her injured hand.
