One Word Changed, Characters in Chaos

Chapter 226: Chapter 203: Indelible?

Yue Heng couldn’t think of any logical reason.

Why?

For what reason?

He hadn’t committed any heinous crimes, so why would his father just decide to give up on him!

Yue Heng clenched his teeth and suddenly understood.

Fine.

This was nothing more than a tactic his family was using to manipulate him.

In the language of the day,

it was gaslighting!

Yes, gaslighting!

They just wanted to tell him that he wasn’t capable enough and make him obediently return home to start from the bottom.

But.

How could he tolerate climbing up step by step like those ordinary people!

Their insistence on having this second child was simply to make him bow his head.

It was just an embryo, and even if it were born, by the time it grew up to threaten his position, who knows when that would be.

They want to use this to threaten him, no way!

Yue Heng gritted his teeth and said, “Fine fine fine, I’m telling you, one day you’ll regret this! When that time comes, even if you beg me to return, I won’t.”

Yue Heng, pulling Tong Simeng, turned around and left with a whirlwind of anger.

Deep down, he still hoped his parents would call out to stop him.

But no one spoke up.

Unable to swallow his pride, Yue Heng had no choice but to leave with Tong Simeng in tow.

As they were about to leave,

Yue Heng’s father finally spoke up in an indifferent tone.

Yue Heng’s face lit up with hope.

Only to hear his father’s calm voice, “I’ve paid off the debts you’ve accrued. I’ve also made it clear to your friends that the family won’t cover for you in any future financial dealings. Yue Heng, take care of yourself.”

Yue Heng’s expression instantly soured.

What did this mean!

Was it a sign of their disdain, thinking he was doomed to fail?

Or did they believe that the only reason he could borrow money from friends was because of the family’s influence?

They indeed continued to undervalue their own son!

Just wait, he would certainly make something of himself.

Without any further hesitation, Yue Heng turned and left.

Yue Heng’s mother sighed, “Husband, Yue Heng…”

Yue Heng’s father said calmly, “I’ve done everything I could for him. He conducts business ruthlessly and is far too impetuous. I can’t entrust the company to him. I’ve paid his debts, and if he comes to his senses now and starts to live a steady life, he should be able to do quite well. But if he continues to have an inflated sense of self…”

A pang of sorrow flashed in Yue Heng’s father’s eyes.

This was, after all, his son, but when it came to Yue Heng, he really was out of options.

His advice fell on Yue Heng’s deaf ears.

Starting his own business wouldn’t be advisable with the kind of approaches Yue Heng had used when running Tianxing. His father truly disapproved of them.

However, if Yue Heng was willing to turn back, it wasn’t impossible to gradually steer him on the right path.

But was he willing?

He wasn’t!

Rather than letting the family’s century-old reputation be destroyed by Yue Heng, it was better to make an early separation.

He was a father.

But he also had to consider the future of the Yue family and the livelihood of thousands of employees.

He couldn’t allow Yue Heng to destroy all that.

Yue Heng’s mother also nodded slowly in agreement.

Making this decision was tough, but fortunately, with a new child on the way, they also felt more hope for the future.

Yue Heng, with Tong Simeng by his side, stormed out.

Of course, he didn’t think his failure was due to a lack of ability, but rather that fate had wronged him.

This time, Yue Heng vowed to make a name for himself.

But he quickly felt the gap between expectation and reality.

When he sought out those he considered good friends again, they avoided him like the plague. He didn’t even get the chance to ask for money, let alone have a conversation.

As Yue Heng lamented the fickleness of human relationships, he became more determined to succeed.

He sold his last villa to make one final push.

But.

Ye Bolin and Gu Yan were still watching him closely.

Yue Heng himself wasn’t particularly competent, and the entrepreneurial projects he thought of often hovered on the edge of legality.

As long as Ye Bolin and Gu Yan gave even a little hint, naturally, no one would dare to collaborate with Yue Heng.

If a business operating in such a gray area was discreet, it could continue, but Yue Heng was clearly being watched.

How was he to proceed?

Useless, completely useless!

Yue Heng’s entrepreneurship had failed yet again.

After selling the villa, he and Tong Simeng moved into a 90-square-meter commercial apartment.

But Yue Heng still wouldn’t give up, he even wanted to sell this last property.

Tong Simeng had stopped fantasizing about Yue Heng’s success in entrepreneurship and pleaded with him desperately to at least keep this last foothold.

Yue Heng simply wouldn’t listen.

So.

In his repeated attempts at starting businesses, the couple finally reached a state of pennilessness.

To support themselves and Yue Heng’s business ventures, Tong Simeng was forced to look for work.

With her bad reputation, she couldn’t find any decent jobs outside and ultimately could only land a job washing dishes in a kitchen.

Such a job was both arduous and tiring, and the pay was meager.

Tong Simeng repeatedly asked Yue Heng to also find a job to support their home together.

But in Yue Heng’s heart, he was a big shot who could be a general manager right off the bat. How could he do such lowly work?

However, he had no money for starting a business.

The money Tong Simeng earned could barely cover their day-to-day expenses.

With eyes red, Yue Heng actually went and borrowed a high-interest loan.

Seeing him like this, Tong Simeng, frightened and alarmed, finally fell into complete despair.

One night, she secretly left Yue Heng and never returned.

Tong Simeng sneakily visited Ye Zhaoyu once.

He was still as absorbed in his esports career as before.

He still shone brightly, surrounded by thousands of adoring fans.

Tong Simeng felt a bit dazed.

As it turned out.

Without her, Ye Zhaoyu was still Ye Zhaoyu.

But without Ye Zhaoyu, she had lost everything.

No.

What she lost were just those things that never really belonged to her in the first place.

Tong Simeng watched Ye Zhaoyu in the crowd quietly for a while, then let out a bitter laugh and turned to leave.

Ye Xiao watched Tong Simeng decide not to disturb Ye Zhaoyu in the end and couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow.

At this point, Tong Simeng seemed to have finally come to her senses a bit.

If from now on she became down-to-earth, Ye Xiao wouldn’t go out of her way to target her for anything.

Everyone chooses their own endings.

She would fight back, but she would not see herself as a deity who arbitrarily controlled the fates of these people.

Ye Xiao turned to the last page of Tong Simeng’s book.

By now.

The ending of this book was no longer legible, turning into a blur of ink spots.

But the book hadn’t disappeared yet, perhaps still awaiting a final conclusion.

Ye Xiao was in no hurry now. She guessed that what she was waiting for was still seven years away.

After seven years.

Everything would come to an ending.

By then, it would likely also be the moment when the real Ye Xiao returned.

Several months later.

Qin Mobei and Chen Yueyue welcomed the birth of the child they had been looking forward to.

Ye Xiao had tried to prevent this child from being born, but in the end, she had not succeeded.

The biggest bug in these books had easily come into the world.

Ye Xiao couldn’t help but feel troubled.

This child was highly illogical, and if allowed to grow up, might cause quite a bit of trouble.

She definitely didn’t want to keep an eye on this child for the next seven years.

It was as if sensing Ye Xiao’s trouble.

The system’s mechanical voice sounded.

“Qin Xi is an important supporting character, his existence cannot be erased.”

Ye Xiao nodded.

She was about to say something.

Suddenly, Ye Xiao thought of something and her brows slightly creased.

His existence cannot be erased.

But that doesn’t mean other aspects cannot be altered, does it?

He certainly exists now.

What about after?

Her revisions should take effect then, right!
