One Word Changed, Characters in Chaos

Chapter 81: Chapter 58: Is It a Very Cheap Person?

Bai Shilan?

The few members of the Ye Family suddenly all looked towards Ye Lin.

They knew the name.

But Bai Shilan had a relation with Ye Lin?

It was their first time hearing about it!

Ye Lin was even more bewildered as he listened.

He indeed knew Bai Shilan, a quite odd junior.

In any case, her acting wasn’t great, and she always liked to ask him some inexplicable questions.

He and Bai Shilan, were not familiar at all, okay. How did this fine cabbage of his get marked by Bai Shilan the pig?

But that’s not right!

It’s one thing for Bai Shilan to be a pig.

But when did he become a cabbage!

While Ye Lin was still in a state of confusion, the other members of the Ye Family knew that Ye Xiao could predict plot developments.

Ye Bolin asked in an undisturbed tone, “Ye Lin, you haven’t made any shady acquaintances in the entertainment circle, have you?”

“That’s right. If you bring some weird person back home, I definitely won’t acknowledge it,” Du Yaru hurriedly chimed in.

[Hey, it doesn’t work if you don’t recognize it. Bai Shilan is so pure, so cute, so innocent. Although Second Brother didn’t agree at first, later on, he’ll definitely be moved eventually.]

Ye Xiao sighed.

The expressions of the Ye Family members suddenly became menacing.

Ye Lin was totally dumbfounded.

What is going on here?

He and Bai Shilan, really had no connection whatsoever.

Ye Lin immediately said, “I’ve been on set all year, where would I have time to meet shady characters.”

“Maybe you met her on the set,” Ye Bolin suggested.

Ye Lin: “…Truly, no.”

Seeing Ye Lin’s innocent face and recalling what Ye Xiao thought, Ye Lin currently had no entanglements with Bai Shilan, but they thought it best to prevent any issues before they arise!

They should find an opportunity to properly educate Ye Lin about Bai Shilan’s matter.

If Ye Lin gets involved with that kind of woman without understanding the situation, that would truly be a misdeed.

After dinner, the Ye Family members started to take action.

Ye Lin had just begun to go upstairs.

Ye Bolin’s voice, full of implication, sounded, “Ye Lin, I’ve heard that some people in your circle are quite messy. There’s someone called Bai Shilan who seems to be kept by Li Jingzhou? This Li Jingzhou, he has a fiancée, doesn’t he? This person’s character is questionable, right?”

Ye Lin was stunned for a moment.

There was such news?

He was solely focused on acting and had not paid attention to these pieces of gossip.

But since Big Brother said so, it was probably true?

But it had nothing to do with him!

Ye Lin just numbly nodded.

He went into his room.

He was just getting ready to rest.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Ye Lin opened the door to see the affectionate face of Du Yaru.

Du Yaru was even holding a fruit plate, which touched Ye Lin.

It seemed his mother still had some maternal love for him.

With a smile, Du Yaru set the fruit plate down, and then under Ye Lin’s moved gaze, she slowly started speaking.

“Second Son, since you were young, you’ve always been straightforward. When dealing with people, sometimes you’re a bit too naive. You should know that some people’s appearances and the reality are completely different concepts.” Du Yaru gently persuaded, “You can’t differentiate between good and evil, and I don’t know how to teach you, but in the future, if you encounter anyone with the surname Bai, you need to be cautious.”

Ye Lin:

Isn’t that talking about Bai Shilan?

Why does each and every one of them think he’ll have something to do with Bai Shilan!

“Remembered it?” asked Du Yaru.

“Remembered it,” Ye Lin replied helplessly.

Du Yaru finally picked up the fruit plate with satisfaction.

Ye Lin was stunned. “Mom, save some fruit for me. I’m feeling a bit thirsty,” he said.

Without turning her head, Du Yaru replied, “If you’re thirsty, drink some boiled water. If you want fruit, go get it yourself. This is for Xiaoxiao.”

Du Yaru left coldly and heartlessly.

And Ye Lin was left alone, mourning the love of a mother that had already passed away.

Finally mustering up some spirits, Ye Lin decided to fend for himself and go find some fruit.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw Ye Mingcheng standing there, looking as if he was about to knock.

Ye Lin instantly had a bad premonition.

“It seems, father and son are truly connected,” Ye Mingcheng said, withdrawing his hand and walking in naturally. “Ye Lin, you spend all day filming and there are many things I haven’t had the chance to teach you. But…”

Ye Lin said expressionlessly, “I will stay away from anyone with the surname Bai.”

Ye Mingcheng’s eyes lit up immediately. “Excellent! Especially those named Shilan, you shouldn’t even talk to them.”

“Understood,” Ye Lin responded with a smile that did not reach his eyes.

Ye Mingcheng was very pleased. “With this realization, I can rest assured. It seems you’re not as foolish… no, as naive as I thought.”

Ye Lin felt a bit weary in his heart.

He just tended to be more engrossed in his own world.

He wasn’t really foolish, was he?

After sending Ye Mingcheng away, Ye Lin lost his mood entirely.

Now, whenever he thought of Bai Shilan, he was so angered that his teeth itched.

What on earth was going on with this woman?

Was she the one spreading rumors outside, making the family think there was something between him and her?

They were not even close, and yet, could she have been so scheming behind his back?

Could Li Jingzhou’s canary be so bold?

Ye Lin’s impression of Bai Shilan plummeted to rock bottom.

Ye Lin had a two-month long break during this return.

But, due to his special status, it was inconvenient for him to appear in public so he spent most of his time at home.

That day, the driver took Ye Xiao to school.

Ye Xiao was about to enter.

A woman, fully armed and wearing sunglasses, approached her with a smile.

“Xiaoxiao, it’s me,” the woman said in a lowered voice.

Through the plot, Ye Xiao knew this person was Bai Shilan.

She couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow, wanting to pretend she didn’t recognize her and walk away.

“Key plot point detected, please follow your character set and act accordingly.”

Ye Xiao immediately frowned.

This scene had suddenly become a key plot point!

If it’s deemed a key plot point, she had to follow the script, unless she used the edit feature.

During this time, she had accumulated quite a few words.

All together, she had eight words exactly.

If it weren’t for her being frugal, usually solving things with one word instead of two whenever possible, those eight words could’ve made a sentence by now.

The key plot was simple.

Bai Shilan claimed that all previous misunderstandings were due to being deceived by Ye Bingtong. Her visit was to make friends with Ye Xiao.

Bai Shilan’s tone was very humble, even somewhat subservient.

Being flattered by such a top female star, Ye Xiao was inwardly pleased and readily agreed to befriend Bai Shilan, even promising to bring her home to clear up the misunderstandings with her family.

Seeing this plot, Ye Xiao was full of question marks.

The book was insane to pull the story back on track in such a way.

She wasn’t some despicable person, so why would she agree to befriend Bai Shilan and introduce her to her family?

Was she seriously ill?

Yet, it was a key plot point; to deviate, she would have to use one of her edits.

Ye Xiao narrowed her eyes.

But then, she suddenly had a better idea.
