One Word Changed, Characters in Chaos Chapter 165 – Chapter 165: Chapter 142: Everyone Eating Melon

Chapter 165: Chapter 142: Everyone Eating Melon

Tong Simeng had felt deep sympathy for the pitiable girl, Ye Bingtong, when she had seen the news of her attempted suicide and subsequent hospitalization.

At the time, all netizens were cursing Ye Bingtong.

Only she had pointed out calmly: How could all of this be Ye Bingtong's fault alone? Wasn't she driven to this by the Ye Family, by Ye Xiao? If Ye Xiao had been easy to get along with, how could Bingtong have been driven out of the Ye Family!

If the Ye Family was truly tolerant, how could they so easily give up on their daughter whom they had doted on for so many years!

In the end, even if Ye Bingtong had problems, she was forced by the world.

Out of sympathy for Ye Bingtong, Tong Simeng decided to follow Ye Zhaoyu home this time, thinking to herself that she wanted to properly persuade the Ye Family to be forgiving, because if things escalated to the point of costing a life, it would be bad for everyone.

Her motives were completely out of consideration for the reputation of the Ye Family.

What a pity.

Today, because of that Ye Xiao, she was rushed out before she could utter her well-intentioned advice.

Even Zhaoyu seemed to have taken issue with her now!

How could this be?

Tong Simeng always remembered how, in the beginning, she and Yue Heng were childhood sweethearts, but Yue Heng's parents harshly humiliated her, saying that she would never be good enough for Yue Heng and even threw half a million yuan at her!

At that time, her mother was gravely ill, and she indeed needed the money, so she had to accept it, humiliated.

Later, her mother passed away anyway, and she was left all alone.

At that time.

Tong Simeng swore to herself.

She would one day find a man in no way inferior to Yue Heng and become his wife.

Only by doing that could she slap Yue Heng's parents in the face.

She wanted to show them that she, Tong Simeng, was good enough for anyone!

The appearance of Ye Zhaoyu gave her the opportunity to achieve her goal.

She clung to Ye Zhaoyu tightly, and their relationship had always progressed smoothly.

However, Tong Simeng always felt a faint emptiness in her heart.

Compared to her time with Yue Heng, there was always something missing between her and Ye Zhaoyu, she couldn't fully open up to him, and most of his world was always consumed by gaming.

Especially during the competition season, he would train day and night, completely neglecting her, his girlfriend.

Outsiders envied her for landing the esports god, but only she knew how painful it was to be the woman behind that god!

Just at this moment.

Yue Heng appeared again.

That time at the competition venue, she saw Yue Heng.

Yue Heng stood on the side of Ye Zhaoyu's opponent; he was the owner of the Tianxing Club.

At that moment, Tong Simeng couldn't help feeling bewildered.

Yue Heng had seen Tong Simeng as well. He acted as if he didn't know her, merely exchanging polite words with Ye Zhaoyu.

But Tong Simeng's heart couldn't help but ripple.

He was, after all, the first person who had moved her heart.

If it weren't for the obstruction of Yue Heng's parents, she and Yue Heng would probably have already been happily together.

But now, they could only pretend to be strangers.

Tong Simeng was deeply saddened by this, so much so that she didn't want to watch that match and instead found herself a secluded place to wallow in her sorrow.

Then.

Yue Heng appeared.

In front of others, he pretended not to know her.

But here in this deserted place, he boldly embraced her in his arms, and…

Tong Simeng thought of that kiss that day, and her cheeks couldn't help flushing red.

That day, Yue Heng had asked her to leave Ye Zhaoyu, saying that he now had the ability to protect her well and wouldn't let her be hurt again.

At that time.

Her heart raced.

Tong Simeng knew.

She was moved.

Or rather, she had never forgotten Yue Heng.

But Yue Heng's parents looked down on her so much, her pride wouldn't allow her to go back to him.

So, when Yue Heng asked her to be with him again.

She refused.

She even intentionally said that she no longer had any feelings for Yue Heng, her love was reserved only for Ye Zhaoyu.

At that time, Yue Heng looked incredibly upset, and she couldn't help wavering for a moment.

But she still endured it.

She and Yue Heng, it was no longer possible.

She also took the initiative and agreed with Yue Heng that in the future, they would just be good friends.

Yue Heng agreed as well.

After that.

Yue Heng often cared for her as a friend, and when Tong Simeng felt neglected and sad because of Ye Zhaoyu, she couldn't help but vent and complain to Yue Heng.

As they continued this way.

Tong Simeng felt that the affection between her and Yue Heng seemed to be slowly rekindling.

But she told herself.

This is wrong!

She already had a boyfriend, she wasn't the kind of woman who betrays her boyfriend.

She should have cut ties with Yue Heng, but, with Ye Zhaoyu always being so busy, she couldn't help but turn to Yue Heng time and time again.

Yue Heng was always available on call, and in her presence, he was forever empathetic.

But Tong Simeng swore.

All she did with Yue Heng was dine and drink, and perhaps there were a few kisses after drinks.

She never did anything to betray Ye Zhaoyu.

This time, upon discovering the matter with Ye Bingtong, she thought it for the Ye Family's reputation that she wanted to return with him, to admonish the Ye Family.

Who would have thought, who would have thought.

Her good intentions, just like that, were wasted.

Thinking back to Ye Zhaoyu's indifferent expression just now, Tong Simeng couldn't help but start shedding tears.

Unable to bear it, she made a call to Yue Heng.

Ye Family.

Ye Zhaoyu had just returned home when he overheard Ye Xiao's thoughts.

[Wow. She's calling Yue Heng already, let's see what they're talking about.]

Ye Zhaoyu's steps subconsciously halted.

The rest of the Ye Family couldn't help but perk up their ears.

Gossip!

There was gossip!

Although this gossip made Ye Zhaoyu seem very pitiful.

But…

It's still gossip!

There was no harm in listening first before sympathizing with Ye Zhaoyu.

Ye Xiao looked at the drama unfolding and began to mimic in a singsong voice within his thoughts.

[Tong Simeng made the call, wanting to say something but not knowing where to start. All the grievances came rushing to the forefront, and she couldn't help but cry softly.]

[Yue Heng was somewhat anxious: “Simeng, Simeng, what's wrong? Please don't scare me, okay!”]

[Tong Simeng continued to cry.]

[Yue Heng felt unbearable heartache: “Is it Ye Zhaoyu? Did he bully you again?”]

[Tong Simeng held back her tears: “No, it's not about Zhaoyu.”]

[Yue Heng couldn't help but say: “Stop making excuses for him! Where are you now, I'll come find you!”]

[Tong Simeng said in a low voice: “I'm really okay. I'm currently with Ye Zhaoyu at his house here.”]

[Without hesitation, Yue Heng said: “Alright, I'm coming now.” Tong Simeng hurriedly said: “Wait, I'm really fine…” But before she could finish, Yue Heng had already hung up the phone. Tong Simeng knew he was a man of action, and he should already be on his way to Luo City by now. A faint sweetness arose in Tong Simeng's heart. She knew it was wrong, yet she felt somewhat out of control.]

[Tsk tsk tsk. Thrilling, truly thrilling.]

Ye Xiao was thoroughly entertained, playing both roles by himself in his thoughts, his performance utterly vivid.

The Ye Family members were also thoroughly engrossed.

It wasn't until Ye Xiao stopped narrating the drama that they looked up.

And then… they saw Ye Zhaoyu standing at the door.
