One Word Changed, Characters in Chaos Chapter 45 – Chapter 45: Chapter 22: Wonderful Performance

Chapter 45: Chapter 22: Wonderful Performance

Translator: 549690339

Ye Xiao looked down on Ye Bingtong with disdain, “With your level of talent, even if you had the entire script, you couldn't bring much to the performance.”

It wasn't just idle talk from Ye Xiao.

In the book, although Ye Bingtong was successfully selected.

Regrettably, her selection was not due to her acting skills.

On the contrary, Li Mingyu wasn't satisfied with her acting.

Ye Bingtong “just happened” to show her gentleness and kindness by saving Li Mingyu's grandson who had fallen into the water, the grandchild Li Mingyu cherished the most. That's what lead to breaking the principles and giving the role to Ye Bingtong.

Afterward, during the movie filming, Li Mingyu tried everything to teach her, but the eventual outcome still left her unsatisfied. Yet with no better options, the film had to be hastily released.

Upon its release, Ye Bingtong's character received mixed reviews, but with her reputation as a talented musician, and with the protection of the Ye Family and her fans, she smoothly passed through the ordeal, and even used this opportunity to enter the entertainment circle.

As for director Li Mingyu, she didn't say a word after the film's release, but from then on, she no longer made films.

It could only be said that what Ye Bingtong wanted was always to be the center of attention, shining brightly like the stars. As for honing her acting skills, she didn't put in much effort, and even in the end, her reputation was only that of a top stream actress. Her greatest achievement, aside from her popularity, was simply her husband who successfully transitioned from a rookie to a CEO.

In terms of competing in acting, Ye Xiao was never afraid of anyone, let alone Ye Bingtong.

Ye Xiao spoke with a mocking tone. Ye Bingtong held her breath, and it took her a while to say, “I'll work hard.”

Ye Xiao snorted coldly, “Then let me show you the gap between mortals and geniuses. Since you're so eager to be my foil, I naturally won't refuse. Big brother, if you have any insider information, just let it all out. Even if I lose, I'll make sure she loses clearly.”

Ye Xiao had an arrogant expression, completely fitting the part of the villain.

Ye Bolin looked at his little sister with adoration, “Alright, let's go with what Xiaoxiao says.”

Ye Bolin thought for a moment and then said, “Director Li has been very strict with the confidentiality of the movie. The only information that has leaked is that the female lead may be a bit crazy; she's a somewhat neurotic genius composer. As for the rest, I couldn't find out anything else. A lot of it will probably depend on spontaneous performance.”

After hearing this, Ye Bingtong felt a tinge of disappointment—the information was still too scarce.

However, Ye Xiao appeared entirely calm, “No problem, improvisation is what I'm best at.”

Ye Bingtong couldn't help but glance at Ye Xiao with some frustration.

She really wasn't sure whether Ye Xiao was just pretending to be confident or if she truly had this confidence!

“What are you looking at me for?” Ye Xiao glared back at Ye Bingtong, “I've already shared the information with you. Why are you still clinging to me? Do you want me to teach you how to act?”

Ye Bingtong bit her lower lip and glanced at the Ye Family members.

The Ye Family members calmly averted their gazes.

Only now did they realize that Xiaoxiao had suffered so much before. It was normal for Xiaoxiao and Bingtong to be at odds now.

People's hearts always lean in a direction.

Obviously, their hearts were gradually leaning towards Ye Xiao.

Ye Bingtong felt another wave of frustration in her heart. She murmured something quietly and left.

“Xiaoxiao, it's just a movie. If you can act, do it; if not, your brother will tailor-make a better one for you,” Ye Mingcheng said.

Ye Bolin nodded, “That's right. There are plenty of good scripts.”

“Don't worry, I won't fail,” Ye Xiao simply stated.

With that confidence from her, the Ye Family members didn't have much else to say and left one after another.

The room returned to silence.

Ye Xiao's eyes shone brightly.

For her, ever since coming to this world, this was the first time she had encountered something that truly piqued her interest.

The book didn't detail this movie. It only mentioned that Ye Bingtong relied on it to successfully break into the entertainment industry.

Ye Xiao didn't know the specifics of the movie. Still, she thought that if Li Mingyu had poured so much heart into it and later was so dissatisfied with the result that she even quit filmmaking, the work must be quite brilliant.

By the time the real competition arrived, Ye Xiao would likely have accumulated quite a few chances to alter the script.

But.

Ye Xiao didn't want to use her plot-changing trump card on a fair competition.

Who wins and who loses—as long as it's a real contest of acting skill, then it's each to their own ability.

If Ye Bingtong tried any underhand tactics like she did in the book, Ye Xiao would surely make her understand that what isn't yours shouldn't be forcefully pursued.

Deep into the night.

This one evening.

Qin Mobei, under the enthusiastic invitation of Chen Yueyue's parents, stayed directly at the Chen Family's home, and in the same room as Chen Yueyue no less.

Ye Xiao really didn't want to know about these things, but the system kept reminding her of the plot updates.

She only glanced at it, and her eyes stung.

This one said, “After countless days and months, all I have been doing is thinking of you. Every day by his side has been agony, but being with you, I don't have to do a thing, and it's already paradise.”

The other replied, “Ever since that night, I have been searching for you. I thought I would never find you again, but it seems that heaven still has mercy on me, delivering you to my side. From now on, I will never let go of your hand.”

Then came some cringe-inducing content that made one's skin crawl.

Ye Xiao directly skipped over that part of the story.

This time, the content update was pretty reliable, and a lot of new scenes for this couple had been added.

It went something like this.

Qin Mobei discovered the next day that the video had gone viral online, and both he and Chen Yueyue were now public enemies, and even their company had been stormed.

The public relations department was eagerly awaiting Qin Mobei's decision.

And Qin Mobei's reaction?

It was anger!

Immense anger!

He ordered his subordinates to delete the related videos from the entire network and even logged into his own Weibo account, listing a bunch of netizens, announcing that he would sue them one by one.

His attitude was incredibly arrogant.

Netizens have always been the type who don't take well to coercion, and now they were even more enraged.

Not only did they continue boycotting everything related to the Qin Family, but the more Qin Mobei deleted videos, the more they wanted to post.

Eventually, when they couldn't post anymore, the netizens began to make their own parodies.

Overnight, numerous videos sprang up on the internet.

Especially the creatively infinite college students who had started full dorm room performances.

Two people played Chen Yueyue's parents, trying to drag her to have an abortion.

One played Chen Yueyue, screaming loudly.

Then.

The Qin Mobei impersonator made a grand entrance, accompanied by another roommate who was responsible for the lighting.

“Stop!” CEO Qin shined in the light, with the passionate music of “Shanghai Beach” playing in the background, truly a paragon of domineering CEOs.

Then the music changed, taking on a whimsical, comical tone, and Qin Mobei suddenly began doing somersaults.

The comments section instantly filled with laughter.

“You're playing like this, huh! If you all play this way, then we can't lose! Wait until I convince my sisters, and we'll release a video immediately.”

“The others are easy to persuade, but the sister playing Qin Mobei, she needs some somersaulting skills.”

“No good, we can't do somersaults, I plan to do their true love declaration.”

“Hahaha, upvotes, upvotes, all the upvotes, I can't keep up!”

Ye Xiao watched the unfolding drama and couldn't help but be amused.

Exactly! This is the kind of plot that's truly exciting.

She didn't need to do anything; the netizens' performances were already thrilling enough!

After watching the updated scenes, Ye Xiao went to sleep, feeling quite pleased.

Luo City.

In the empty room, Pei Yue's face was ugly.

This time, he only had a pencil sharpener, and he hadn't caused Ye Xiao any harm. He was detained for a few days, got educated, and was released.

Pei Yue harbored an intense hatred for Ye Xiao. As soon as he got out, he wanted to settle the score with her.

His first move was to gather his lackeys to give Ye Xiao a taste of his wrath.

However.

He went to several of his strongholds in a row, only to find them all deserted!

Clutching his phone, Pei Yue dialed number after number with gritted teeth.

What on earth was going on with these people!

Just because he had been locked up, did they think they could turn the world upside down?
