One Word Changed, Characters in Chaos - Chapter 125
Chapter 125: Chapter 102 Lin Yun
After that day.
Ye Bingtong hadn’t come back to school again.
The students discussed it a few times, but Ye Xiao didn’t join these discussions.
Mainly because
with the book in hand, Ye Xiao had a thorough understanding of Ye Bingtong’s movements.
Ye Xiao looked at that book and felt rather embarrassed now.
The trajectory of this book had completely derailed.
Using the resources of his wealthy patrons, Pei Yue had indeed got in touch with a big shot in the circle and invited him to a drinking party, directly suggesting Ye Bingtong attend the gathering to ingratiate herself with the tycoon.
On that day.
Ye Bingtong still wore that pure white dress, her demeanor exuding the elegance cultivated by a prominent family. At the gathering, she stood out from the common rabble, different because she actually could play the piano!
Retaining some of her heroine’s halo, Ye Bingtong’s pure and innocent charisma made her stand out, and several tycoons began vying for her attention.
In the end, Ye Bingtong chose the most powerful tycoon and went to a hotel with him.
Huanyu Film and Television and Xingguang Film and Television dominated almost half of the film and television industry.
No one in the entertainment circle would risk offending these two powerhouses to take in Ye Bingtong.
So
under Pei Yue’s strategizing, Ye Bingtong was planning to enter the music industry this time.
Coincidentally, Ye Bingtong had a reputation as a piano prodigy, which matched well with her moving into the music industry.
With the help of the tycoon, Ye Bingtong quickly signed with a record company, which also planned to capitalize on her current, though somewhat infamous, popularity to quickly release an album for her.
In the narrative, the story paused after Ye Bingtong’s signing.
By now, Ye Xiao had realized the malice in these few books. The story’s updates were slowing down, and if one waited until the last moment to prepare, it might be too late.
Ye Xiao kept pondering.
What would the next part of the story be?
Ye Bingtong had entered the music industry and was preparing to release an album. How would the plot unfold from here?
Ye Xiao couldn’t help but think of someone: Lin Yun.
Previously, under the system’s influence, Chen Yueyue had spoken the truth and also exposed some of Ye Bingtong’s secrets.
At that time, Chen Yueyue mentioned someone: Lin Yun.
Under Ye Bingtong’s repeated targeting, Lin Yun developed depression and moved abroad with her parents.
In the original story, when she made her reappearance, she had become a top music producer.
The story hadn’t been altered at that time; Ye Bingtong had made her debut through Director Chen’s movie and even won a Best Newcomer Award. Coupled with support from the Ye Family and the Gu Family, Ye Bingtong, adorned with multiple halos, became a sought-after figure.
Back then, a music company also signed a contract with Ye Bingtong, intending to help her release an album.
And Lin Yun had just returned to the country and became the signed music producer for another record company.
The book naturally didn’t mention Lin Yun’s childhood experiences. Instead, it used various means to indicate how unreasonable Lin Yun was, how she targeted Ye Bingtong, and how innocent and pitiful Ye Bingtong was.
Ultimately.
Ye Bingtong’s album became a bestseller, while Lin Yun was vilified across the internet. It was also dug up that she and Ye Bingtong were childhood friends.
With tearful eyes in front of the camera, Ye Bingtong said that she and Lin Yun were best friends and that she didn’t know why Lin Yun suddenly moved away silently after Ye Bingtong won a piano gold medal one time.
She also didn’t understand why Lin Yun, upon her return, targeted her the way she did.
In the end, Ye Bingtong kindly expressed,
She had always regarded Lin Yun as her best friend. No matter what Lin Yun did, she hoped her fans would stop the insults.
That was what Ye Bingtong said.
But her fans, upon hearing this, would only feel more sympathetic towards their cherished Bingtong baby and then attack Lin Yun even more fiercely.
“What top-level producer? This Lin Yun’s talent was never a match for our Bingtong from the start. When they were children, she probably left out of jealousy towards Bingtong, right?”
“It’s frightening. She was already jealous of our Bingtong baby at such a young age.”
“Considering what she did to Bingtong, it wouldn’t be excessive for her to die a hundred times! It’s just that Bingtong is so kind, which is why she has forgiven her time and time again!”
“Bingtong’s kindness is her own concern, but we cannot let Bingtong be wronged!”
“Lin Yun must be driven out of the entertainment industry!”
“Those who bully Baby Bingtong must pay a price!”
Later.
Under the overwhelming insults.
Lin Yun didn’t respond at all and chose to end her own life on a deep, silent night.
And Bingtong’s fans didn’t feel anything was amiss. On the contrary, they thought Lin Yun was guilty and that, by dying, she actually got off lightly.
What about Bingtong?
She came out and cried crocodile tears for a while, then continued living her glamorous life as a huge star.
The existence of Lin Yun was just a stereotypical template: a villain who bullies the female lead, then gets her comeuppance after being counterattacked by the lead, eventually reaping what she sowed.
The words spoken by Chen Yueyue before proved it.
Bingtong was never innocent.
Lin Yun’s later silence might not be due to guilt, but because she was already suffering from depression. Under such heavy pressure, her mental state collapsed once more, leaving her completely unable to defend herself.
This time.
With Ye Xiao’s constant revisions to the plot, the story had taken a completely different path.
Even though Bingtong still signed with a music company, without the previous glory and support from the Ye Family and the Gu Family, her influence was incomparable to her previous life, and she wouldn’t have as many fans to speak for her.
But.
This is, after all, the female lead.
With even a slight chance, she could rise to the top again.
Ye Xiao narrowed her eyes involuntarily.
If Bingtong wanted to make a comeback with her musical talent, then Ye Xiao had to cut off this path completely.
Ye Xiao was well aware of her own limitations; when it came to music, she had no talent to speak of and, in fact, was somewhat tone-deaf.
If she wanted to suppress Bingtong.
She could provide some early help to Lin Yun.
With her around, she wouldn’t let Lin Yun repeat her past life’s fate!
Ye Xiao pondered the original plotline.
In the original storyline.
Lin Yun would still be abroad at this point in time.
She would only return to the country after the release of Director Chen’s movie and Bingtong winning the Best Newcomer award.
Currently, Lin Yun, going by the name ‘Summer’, had already written many wonderful songs and was quite famous overseas.
So, when she returned to the country, she joined a top record company and became the record supervisor.
Lin Yun’s development abroad was so successful that there was no need for her to return, but according to the original storyline, it was obvious she came back specifically for Bingtong!
So this time.
Although the timeline had advanced quite a bit.
As long as Lin Yun knew.
That Bingtong had signed with a record company and was about to release an album.
It was highly likely that Lin Yun would choose to return to the country immediately.
Ye Xiao, due to the system restrictions, couldn’t directly interfere with the plot, but she could drop a subtle hint.
For example.
Having her older brother help promote Bingtong signing with the record company.
Ensure that this news reached overseas, to Lin Yun’s ears. Next, it’d be up to Lin Yun herself.
She wasn’t targeting the female lead, but even had her family help promote her. That couldn’t count as breaking the rules, right?
Hmm. She was indeed a clever devil.
