Chapter 163 - 140 Substitute Literature?



He tightly pursed his lips as countless thoughts flashed through his mind.

The things he had always believed in seemed to suddenly have another explanation at this moment.

But he still didn’t want to believe it.

In his eyes, the innocent and simple Tong Simeng had, even at that early time, plotted against him. Perhaps, all of this was just a misunderstanding?

Ye Zhaoyu looked at Tong Simeng and couldn’t help but ask, “Simeng, what’s all this about? The family has been looking for me for so long. At that time, I was laid up in bed with a broken bone and couldn’t go out, so naturally, I couldn’t see any messages. What about you? Did you not see them either?”

Tong Simeng’s gaze flickered involuntarily.

At that time, she actually didn’t know about Ye Zhaoyu’s real identity.

However, that missing person notice stated that a hefty sum of money would be rewarded to anyone who could provide information about Ye Zhaoyu.

Tong Simeng realized then.

Ye Zhaoyu must be of significant status; otherwise, why would someone offer a seven-figure reward for information about him?

After realizing this, she didn’t say anything to Ye Zhaoyu but took even more meticulous care of him, carefully probing the reasons for his running away from home and then supporting him without reservation.

Back then.

She hadn’t really thought that Ye Zhaoyu could actually achieve much by playing games.

She just wanted to use it as an opportunity to get closer to Ye Zhaoyu.

When he couldn’t continue with the gaming, he would naturally return home honestly, and by then, what she could get would definitely be more than that mere reward.

Tong Simeng also hadn’t expected that Ye Zhaoyu would actually make a name for himself through gaming.

Afterward.

After reconciling with his family, the Ye Family provided him with the utmost support.

Tong Simeng became Ye Zhaoyu’s girlfriend and instantly became the envy of thousands of young women.

Tong Simeng couldn’t count the number of times she felt grateful that she had made the right bet back then.

But now.

This piece of the past had suddenly been brought up by Ye Bolin, and Tong Simeng’s expression changed as she said softly, “Zhaoyu, I didn’t see any missing person notice back then either. Perhaps the ‘all over the city’ that Big Brother mentioned was just an exaggeration?”

Ye Bolin let out a cold laugh, “An exaggerated tactic? Miss Tong, you were still working at that time. You were working for an advertising planning company called Cheng Feng, right?”

Tong Simeng’s face looked somewhat unpleasant, but she could only nod in acknowledgment.

“The area around where you were living and your company, I had placed a large number of missing person notices. Even if you were blind, you should have heard the surrounding people talking about it. Are you sure, you didn’t know anything?” Ye Bolin scoffed coldly.

Tong Simeng looked down, “I really didn’t know.”

“Fine, then I’ll go find your former colleagues from that company and ask them in detail if you really didn’t know or if you did know but pretended not to,” Ye Bolin said expressionlessly.

Tong Simeng’s face changed abruptly.

At that time, the search by the Ye Family was a massive affair, with a reward of a million for the finder. The whole office was abuzz with talk, and she had participated in those discussions too. If those colleagues were indeed brought in, she would definitely be exposed.

“Click, click.”

Tong Simeng couldn’t help but shoot Ye Xiao a glare.

Here she was being interrogated, and Ye Xiao had the mood to crack melon seeds!

Was she deliberately watching her own joke?

Ye Xiao, puzzled by her glare, couldn’t help but retort.

[What are you glaring at me for! Am I not even allowed to eat melon seeds? You have the nerve to glare at me, but first, why don’t you clear up the matter? Or is it that you just can’t explain at all?]

“Xiaoxiao, come, there are more here.” Du Yaru affectionately stuffed another handful of sunflower seeds into Ye Xiao’s hand, then turned her attention to Tong Simeng, “Tell us, are you going to admit it yourself, or should Berlin bring your former colleagues over here?”

Ye Mingcheng said indifferently, “The Ye Family still has some influence in Luo City, it wouldn’t be too hard to find a few people.”

Ye Zhaoyu also looked towards Tong Simeng.

This matter was very important to him, he too needed an answer.

Tong Simeng, having no other choice, could only look pitifully at Ye Zhaoyu, “Zhaoyu, back then, I indeed saw some messages. But… But I loved you too much. I was afraid if you went home, I would never see you again. I know I was wrong, but my biggest mistake was loving you too deeply, to the point of being unable to extract myself, loving you until I lost myself.”

As Tong Simeng spoke, her eyes slowly reddened, and glittering tears shimmered, evoking pity in anyone who saw her.

Ye Zhaoyu hesitated for a moment.

[Right, right, right, it’s because she loved you too much. Speaking of which, her story with Yue Heng is also pretty similar, isn’t it? A rich second-generation forced by family to study, secretly runs away from home, meets a little girl playing with stones on the roadside. Then, a stone happens to hit Yue Heng on the head, and the little girl, in a panic, apologizes.]

[Then the two slowly started to interact, Yue Heng often sneaking out to meet her, two individuals from different classes thus beginning their intersection. Shortly before meeting Tianxing, Yue Heng’s family discovered their interactions, so Yue Heng’s parents found Tong Simeng, gave her five hundred thousand, and told her to get out of Yue Heng’s world.]

[While Tong Simeng was grieving and suffering, she picked up Tianxing and brought him back, then it was love at first sight. Such nonsense, really, only idiots would believe. But coming back to the point, her encounters with Yue Heng and Tianxing both started with her causing trouble, these plots are too similar. Tong Simeng, warned by the Yue Family and realizing there was no hope with Yue Heng, so… she couldn’t have treated Tianxing as a substitute, right!]

[Substitute literature! Love it, love it.]

Ye Zhaoyu’s expression slowly changed.

Substitute literature?

Tong Simeng and Yue Heng knew each other from so early on.

And he, he was just Yue Heng’s substitute!

Ye Zhaoyu suddenly felt a surge of nausea.

TC and Tianxing had been competing for the past two years, and Yue Heng had been pulling countless dirty tricks behind the scenes. Ye Zhaoyu had always had a poor impression of Yue Heng; it wasn’t an exaggeration to call them enemies.

On careful thought.

He occasionally cursed Yue Heng in a fit of rage for lacking martial virtue, but Tong Simeng had never joined in the cursing.

Feelings.

They were childhood sweethearts, acquainted first.

And himself.

He was but a joke.

“Tong Simeng.” Ye Zhaoyu’s voice had become a bit colder.

Tong Simeng started to feel uneasy.

What happened?

Clearly Ye Zhaoyu, after hearing her words, was already somewhat moved, so why did his expression suddenly change?

“I’m only going to ask you once,” Ye Zhaoyu said, “are you hiding anything from me?”

Tong Simeng’s gaze drifted, “Apart from this matter, there’s nothing else.”

“Is that so? Think carefully, are you absolutely sure there’s nothing more?” Ye Zhaoyu asked again.

Tong Simeng hesitated for a moment, but then without any hesitation, she shook her head conclusively, “There’s nothing more.”

“Very good.” Ye Zhaoyu’s lips curved into a cold smile.

Yue Heng, huh!

He would check into this matter once he got back.

He wanted to see just how many more surprises Tong Simeng had in store for him.

Ye Bolin raised an eyebrow, “What else is there to ask? Your girlfriend picked a time so close to the semifinals to tell you about Bingtong’s issues, isn’t it just to affect your competitive state? Ye Zhaoyu, knock on your own head. See if your brain is about to grow out.”
