Chapter 183
Hm?
That sounded a bit odd.
“Reason.”
“I think such a beautiful girl shouldn’t be sitting in a wheelchair. She should be exploring the beautiful mountains and rivers of the world—that’s the most wonderful thing.”
“You like my second sister?”
Ye Aotian froze and said, “A … little bit, I guess.”
Ye Zitian laughed wildly and said, “You kid … you’ve got guts! But good luck—I’m rooting for you. Later, make me a prescription for Ye Zifeng too. He can’t stay crippled.”
“Sure, no problem at all.”
And at this moment, the protagonist, Ye Aotian, gained the greatest cheat of this stage—the Ye family’s support. From now on, anyone wanting to bully Ye Aotian would have to consider the Ye family’s stance.
And the plot truly entered the struggle between the ten great families. At this moment, outside, Ye Zimei and Ye Ziyue were walking together.
Ye Ziyue said, “Little sister, tell me, can you perform surgery?”
“A little.”
“Hm, find a chance to saw off my leg. I feel like there’s no need to keep this leg.”
Now, Ye Ziyue suddenly felt that her leg was a humiliation. Because if she ended up liking Ye Aotian just because her leg was healed, that would truly be embarrassing.
What kind of setup is this?
A patient falling for the doctor? By that logic, wouldn’t all the doctors in hospitals be doomed?
…
“What did you say? Say that again?”
At this moment, Chen Fan, who was drinking tea and casually chatting on his phone, was listening to Cao Zijin talk about future plans.
“What did you say? You said Ye Ziyue doesn’t plan to heal her leg anymore?”
“Uh, yeah. Just now, Ye Ziyue told me she thinks it’s fine to stay crippled. There’s no need to treat it, and she rejected Ye Aotian’s offer to heal her.”
What the hell. Don’t do this, my dear lady—you’re driving me crazy! Damn it. This is too much.
Chen Fan wanted to strangle this woman right now. Are you sick? Isn’t it good to stand up again?
“Give me a reason. I want to know why.”
“Honey, what’s wrong with you? Why are you suddenly so concerned? This isn’t like you.”
“Nothing, just curious. Curious.”
“Honey, no matter how curious you are, you can’t get curious about that Ghost Mask lady. I admit she’s pretty, but I’m your wife—I’ll get jealous.”
Chen Fan put away his phone and said, “Didn’t we agree you wouldn’t meddle in my personal affairs?”
Hmph.
Cao Zijin couldn’t be bothered with Chen Fan.
“That’s all I know. If you ask me for a reason, I don’t know. How would I know why Ye Ziyue hates Ye Aotian?”
What the hell. This is just ridiculous, isn’t it?
“What about Liu Feifei?”
“What’s up?”
“I remember Ye Aotian was pursuing Liu Feifei too, right?”
“Yeah, he’s pursuing her—trying to please her every day, even sending her money.”
“And then?”
“We split the money. She gave me a portion. The stuff he gave her was sold off and donated. Oh, right, honey, the watch I recently bought for you—it was with Ye Aotian’s money.”
Are you all … devils?
What the hell—how is this plot so similar to a simp sending money to a goddess, only for her to turn around and give it to someone else?
Aren’t you all just too evil?
Forget it—the plot is indeed moving forward. It seems like this is the point where Ye Aotian was pursuing Liu Feifei.
But … the current situation is that Liu Feifei has turned bad. The main thing is, Ye Aotian has no idea and is probably still holding his phone and giggling like an idiot every day.
“Great, my darling replied to me today.”
“So happy—my darling took the watch I bought her.”
Yet that watch was currently on Chen Fan’s wrist.
“Wow, my darling said she’s feeling a bit unwell today. She must miss me—probably stayed up too late. I shouldn’t keep chatting with her like this anymore.”
“How come I didn’t see Liu Feifei chatting?”
“Oh, she handed it to her assistant.”
“What the—big sis, you mean the one chatting with Ye Aotian all this time was that assistant?”
“No, the assistant didn’t have much time either, so she paid a guy to chat with him every day.”
Are you … a devil or what?
Your big sister just put up with it. After all, whether he’s the protagonist or not, enduring it would eventually pass. But switching to a guy?
You’re really something. I seriously suspect that if this keeps up, it wouldn’t even be surprising if the protagonist’s sexual orientation changed one day.
But Ye Ziyue’s leg situation is genuinely giving people a headache.
“Honey, I feel like you’re really upset.”
“It’s nothing … just a clogged heart. I’m used to it. Don’t worry about me—I’m numb to it already. Alright, I’ll stay by myself for a bit.”
Cao Zijin left, silently taking out her phone.
“I asked for you, but it’s no use. Obviously, your leg is the core point driving the plot forward.”
Core point?
Ye Ziyue said, “Impossible. Even if I die, I won’t let Ye Aotian save my leg.”
Cao Zijin said, “Everyone, come out and persuade her. If this keeps going, it’s really over.”
Jin Lan said, “Hm, I can understand Ye Ziyue’s feelings. Luckily, I don’t have too much going on.”
What she really meant was: Thankfully, I don’t have much plot involvement. If I had a storyline like yours, honestly, it’d gross me out to death.
Liu Feifei said, “Hehe, Ye Aotian pursued me, so I had him chat with my assistant. Hahaha, my assistant couldn’t stand how cringey he was either, so she hired a guy to chat with him instead. I feel like that poor guy’s probably on the verge of breaking down too. So disgusting, that chat content.”
You’re really ruthless.
Ye Zimei said, “Sis, why not just put up with it?”
“Why don’t you put up with it? I’m not doing it.”
Ye Zimei said, “I’m planning to work with Chen Fan. Sigh, I don’t have any assets. The family won’t give me any either, so I can only seek help from outsiders.”
“Stop messing with those shady techniques. The family gave you assets long ago. It’s a miracle you haven’t gone crazy practicing them.”
“Tch, it’s still better than your current situation.”
Damn.
Can you not bring this up? Are you trying to kill me?
Ye Ziyue said, “Give me an idea.”
Liu Feifei said, “Just accept the treatment. If he heals you, you’ll end up liking him—what’s the problem with that?”
Hm, sister, that’s a solid point. End of discussion.
At this moment, Ghost Mask sent a skull emoji.
“Actually … you could ask Chen Fan for help.”
Many people in the group looked at this newcomer girl, instantly becoming wary. Even Zhu Yeqing could tell this woman wasn’t ordinary.
“Why’s everyone gone quiet?”
Cao Zijin said, “Go ahead, let’s hear your thoughts.”
“Hm, it seems like Chen Fan knows medicine too. Maybe he has a solution.”
What she really meant was simple: Chen Fan is a transmigrator, and for the sake of the plot, he’d definitely want your leg to heal.
Ye Ziyue said, “When are you all going to Magic City?”
Cao Zijin said, “I don’t know. Depends on my husband. If he doesn’t go out, I can’t leave either.”
Ye Ziyue frowned and said, “I remember after the movie shoot ended, you didn’t have much left to do, right? Just some promotion work?”
“Yeah, want to help out? Rich lady, I don’t want to struggle anymore. Let me live a happy life—I’d even wear diapers for you.”
You damn weirdo, you’re seriously toxic.
Ye Ziyue said, “I get it. I know what to do next. Give me your director’s phone number.”
Ye Ziyue felt that the best way to handle this now was to speed up this part of the plot. Only by accelerating it could she effectively deal with the current awkward situation.
