One Word Changed, Characters in Chaos

Chapter 191: Chapter 168: Why the Change of Heart?

Just when the scene was in utter chaos,

a brave voice rang out, “Stop, all of you stop!”

Ye Bingtong was momentarily stunned.

The parents were also taken aback, and everyone looked over.

At the doorway, Tong Simeng appeared with a righteous look, and in a few strides, she came over and shielded Ye Bingtong behind her!

Ye Bingtong was somewhat bewildered.

Who was this?

She had been busy whitewashing her image recently and hadn’t paid attention to the news online; otherwise, she would have recognized the rapidly rising Tong Simeng at a glance.

A few journalists instantly caught on.

“Tong Simeng?”

“Yes, it’s her!”

Flashlights immediately started to frantically burst again.

The name Tong Simeng had previously been known only to fans, but in the last few days, she had truly become incredibly famous.

Wasn’t she the daring individual who cheated in public and bestowed a green hat on Ye Zhaoyu?

Now,

she came rushing over to protect Ye Bingtong?

What was happening here!

The plot seemed to have a new twist, and everyone couldn’t help but get excited.

To enjoy such twists and turns from a melon was indeed rare.

The live streaming chat was flooded with a sea of question marks.

“????”

“????”

“Tong Simeng??? How dare she show up!”

“She’s wearing a hospital gown, could it be that she’s also staying at this hospital?”

“Damn, Ye Bingtong keeps throwing blame on the Ye Family, and yet Tong Simeng comes out looking like she’s defending her. What is she planning to do? After stabbing Ye Zhaoyu in the back career-wise, is she going to betray him again in his private life?”

People expressed their confusion about what Tong Simeng was trying to do.

But Tong Simeng knew perfectly well what she was doing.

Yue Heng had told her that the Ye Family had actually arrived at the hospital, but they had yet to show themselves to Ye Bingtong.

She knew Ye Zhaoyu could see, and right now, she was putting on a show for Ye Zhaoyu!

How could these online folks know of Ye Zhaoyu’s deep sentiment towards his sister?

Otherwise,

he wouldn’t have rushed over immediately upon hearing the news of Ye Bingtong’s suicide attempt. Keep in mind, he was about to be in the semifinals, and these days were crucial for Ye Zhaoyu, yet for Ye Bingtong, he put aside his preparations and came here.

Moreover,

the Ye Family had come, heard Ye Bingtong lashing out against them, but still made no move to confront her.

There was only one possibility.

They still had feelings for Ye Bingtong and didn’t want to escalate matters this far.

The only person who truly wanted Ye Bingtong to live a miserable life was, in fact, just one person—Ye Xiao!

If it weren’t for Ye Xiao’s meddling, Ye Bingtong would never have been driven out of the Ye Family, nor would she have ended up in her current plight.

The Ye Family must still hold affection and reluctance towards Ye Bingtong, but due to Ye Xiao’s influence, they couldn’t express it.

If this time,

they simply allowed Ye Bingtong to be taken away by those parents, do you think the Ye Family would be happy?

No.

The only person who would be pleased is Ye Xiao!

The Ye Family wouldn’t directly intervene to help Ye Bingtong.

So, she came!

Tong Simeng was clear about what she wanted.

She would save Ye Bingtong. On one hand, it would demonstrate her righteousness and bravery.

On the other hand, Ye Zhaoyu would be moved by her thoughtfulness when he saw it.

It was a strategy to kill two birds with one stone.

Besides the fact that Ye Xiao might be unhappy, the other members of the Ye Family would be grateful for her help.

Ye Xiao had just recently returned to the Ye Family, and they might feel sympathy for her past experiences, hence their pity and compassion, allowing her to get her way and leading to Bingtong’s current predicament.

But what about after that compassion and sympathy had faded?

Could they continue to spoil Ye Xiao like this?

Sooner or later they would regret their actions! They might even resent what Ye Xiao had done before.

And for herself, she could take this opportunity to change her image in the hearts of the Ye Family members, while also reconciling with Ye Zhaoyu.

With these thoughts, Tong Simeng felt even more energized.

She spoke to the man with righteous indignation, “What are you doing now? This is a society governed by law. Ye Bingtong is already an adult, and no matter who you are, you do not have the right to treat her this way!”

The man showed a fierce expression, “Who are you?”

Tong Simeng spoke forcefully, “Who I am is not important. What’s important is that you immediately stop your illegal actions!”

She deliberately adjusted herself so that the live broadcast would capture her heroic stance.

Ye Zhaoyu over there, he must have seen her act of justice by now, right?

In his heart, was he feeling immensely shocked?

That’s right!

Interrupted by Tong Simeng in this manner, Ye Bingtong also came to her senses. She spoke loudly, “I don’t know you at all. If you keep pestering me, I will call the police!”

“Call the police? The police can’t manage family affairs!” The man was not convinced at all.

The woman beside him glanced around, tugged at his sleeve, and turned to Ye Bingtong with a smile, “Bingtong, we really are your parents. You have been away from us since birth. We missed you too much, so we wanted to take you home. I know you might be surprised too, but we can go have a DNA test. The three of us, we really are a family.”

“Biology is thicker than water; surely you can’t ignore us, right?”

As the woman spoke, she actually knelt down and cried out, “My daughter, the Ye Family has wronged you for so many years. We’re also heartbroken for you, which is why we want to take you away. Please, as your mother, I’m begging you to come home with us. Your brother is still waiting for you at home…”

The woman wept bitterly, her tears and snot mingling.

Tong Simeng was stunned.

Upon closer examination, this couple did seem rather pitiful.

Tong Simeng, looking at the woman with tears streaming down her face, suddenly felt a sense of pity as well.

Ye Bingtong immediately panicked.

These two were now resorting to emotional blackmail.

This was even scarier than being chased and beaten before!

“Miss Ye, didn’t you say earlier that you would rather have not had your life switched at birth? Then, why don’t you go back and see your real family?” a reporter said.

“Yeah, it’s not easy for your parents to come all this way; you shouldn’t let them down,” another person said.

“That’s right, blood is thicker than water.”

“Or are you saying that what you just said was a lie? The Ye Family has bullied you so much, finding your biological parents should fill you with joy.”

Several reporters were fanning the flames.

They couldn’t be blamed, though.

If things had gone smoothly, they would have been willing to cooperate with Ye Bingtong and slightly whitewash her image.

But with the drama unfolding this way, they were not fools; they couldn’t afford to go down with Ye Bingtong at this time.

“I…” Ye Bingtong’s complexion turned pale, and she struggled to say something.

The next moment.

A calm voice sounded.

“I also want to know, since the Ye Family has bullied you so much, why don’t you want to leave with them now?”

Ye Bingtong raised her head, somewhat horrified, only to meet Ye Mingcheng’s unflappable gaze.

The rest of the Ye Family had also arrived.
