204  Chapter 181: Tong Simeng's Short Essay

Ye Zhaoyu led everyone back to the TC base first.

He found a room, and they all watched the complete video together.

Gu Yan had already watched it once.

Ye Xiao already knew the gist of the storyline.

But this was her first time seeing the actual video, and she still found it very intriguing.

Tsk tsk tsk.

In terms of intelligence.

Although the other female leads weren't much better, Ye Xiao really felt that among these four, Tong Simeng would be at the bottom.

Of course, it could also be that she's been playing the role of a reckless, foolish sweetheart for too long and couldn't snap out of it for a moment.

Tong Simeng wanted to use the edited video to slander Ye Zhaoyu, not giving a thought to what would happen if it didn't work out.

If she succeeded,

Ye Zhaoyu's reputation would be ruined, and the Tianxing Team could breathe a sigh of relief. Yue Heng would reap the biggest benefits.

If she failed,

Ye Zhaoyu would counterattack, she would be cursed to death by TC's fans and become a rat crossing the street. Yue Heng would suffer no loss; he could even step forward to say that he didn't know Tong Simeng was this kind of person before, but now he knows, so he wants to break up with her. With such rhetoric, he might even come out looking clean!

After all, when it comes to affairs, the court of public opinion tends to be harsher on women for some reason.

Yue Heng might be applauded for abandoning Tong Simeng, and the prodigal son's return might even receive commendation, thus a whitewashing campaign would be a natural next step.

And Tong Simeng?

What could she gain?

If she won,

she'd get Yue Heng, who was only using her with single-minded focus.

If she lost,

Probably only Tong Simeng would engage in such a completely losing enterprise.

People like Ye Bingtong, Bai Shilan, and Chen Yueyue were more refined egoists; their thoughts might be problematic, but they were shrewd calculators.

Only this Tong Simeng...

Truly, her stupidity was beyond words.

Ye Xiao let out a sigh.

Perhaps,

Tong Simeng knew all this too.

She was just desperately trying to grasp the last straw to save herself.

After scrutinizing the video,

everyone was completely reassured.

"With this complete video, the more Tong Simeng stirs things up, the easier it will be to resolve," Ye Bolin sneered: "They can't hold back for too long. Soon, there should be public opinion."

Now, it was already 11 PM.

But thinking of Yue Heng and Tong Simeng's upcoming antics, everyone was still not sleepy and kept watch with Ye Zhaoyu.

Although they believed they were not afraid of those two, as Xiaoxiao's inner voice suggested, these two were still the main male and female leads after all.

If you want to suppress someone, it's best to do it thoroughly and in one go.

Otherwise,

they will keep popping up like grasshoppers after autumn, repeatedly annoying people.

Yue Heng and Tong Simeng didn't leave them waiting too long.

Soon, Tong Simeng updated her Weibo page with a post.

Ye Zhaoyu opened it at the first opportunity, then shared it on the large screen they usually used for reviewing game strategies.

Everyone began to read.

"There are some things I've wanted to say for a while. But with the semi-finals and the finals, I knew how much Zhaoyu valued his eSports dream. Thus, I chose to remain silent; I didn't want to affect his competitive condition."

"Now that the finals are over and the dust has settled, there is still an endless tide of malice rushing towards me. I don't want to keep silent any longer."

"I know that the incident with Yue Heng was my fault in the first place for wronging Ye Zhaoyu. But before that day, my relationship with Yue Heng was completely innocent, with no overstepping behavior. The reason that scene was witnessed that day was because... Ye Zhaoyu took me back to his home. Yet, it seemed... the Ye Family was not pleased with me. They looked down upon their future daughter-in-law, and when I left the Ye's house, I even had several wounds on my body. If anyone was attentive enough, they might have seen them on that day."

Tong Simeng attached a photo highlighting two small wounds on her face and forehead. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Ye Xiao raised an eyebrow.

One of those wounds was from when she tried to splash hot water on herself but ended up splashing it on her own. Another was from when she tried to headbutt her, but ended up hitting her head on the ground.

This was entirely a case of suffering the consequences of one's actions.

However,

the Ye Family knew the truth, but others did not.

Now that Tong Simeng is bringing this up for attention, it might actually have some effect.

There were cameras in the Ye Family's living room on that day too.

But there's no need to rush to say anything now.

Ye Xiao continued reading.

After that first post, Tong Simeng quickly made a second one.

"Humiliated and bullied at the Ye household that day, I was indeed very aggrieved. That's why Yue Heng came to see me. I acknowledge that I didn't handle the situation properly, but I'm just a young woman in her early twenties. Having suffered so much unfairness, and with Zhaoyu showing no understanding before leaving me at the hotel to return home, I was truly distressed... that's why I reached out to Yue Heng."

"Regarding this matter, everyone is free to criticize me. I am willing to take it all. After that incident, Ye Zhaoyu and I broke up. My experience at the Ye household was just the spark, but the real reason we broke up was that..."

"The eSports idol you all praise has a terrifying need for control in his daily life. Whether in games or in real-life, he is like a tyrant. In the game, he is the commander, the captain, the investor—he has more power than the coach! The coach, fearing for his job, can only let him have his way. The other team members have it even worse, having to flatter Ye Zhaoyu just to keep their starting positions. I was very dissatisfied with Ye Zhaoyu's behavior and raised issues many times, but every time, I was rudely interrupted. Only obedient team members get to start, and what about the disobedient ones? Take Su Fan, for example. As everyone has seen, he has been with the club for two seasons and has won two championships. Such a meritorious player was dismissed right before the finals simply because he offended Ye Zhaoyu. As a result, he could only be a substitute."

"Ye Zhaoyu and I ultimately broke up because our values were utterly incompatible. I can no longer force myself to be with him. I admit my mistakes, but please, cast your anger at me alone and do not direct it towards the innocent Yue Heng and Tianxing Team. They had no connection to the grievances between me and Ye Zhaoyu."

"I know Ye Zhaoyu has many fans, and many of you won't believe what I'm saying. The video below is of his true colors shown when I went to congratulate him after the match. Everyone is free to judge for themselves."

"Finally, I wish every girl finds her true partner, who is emotionally stable, gentle, and kind-hearted."

In the end, Tong Simeng posted an edited video.

Without even watching the video yet, just reading this little essay gives off a strong vibe of scheming subtlety.

Ye Xiao couldn't help but marvel.

This time, Tong Simeng must have had someone ghostwrite this long essay for her.

She repeatedly claimed she was at fault but implied throughout the text that Ye Zhaoyu was even more so.

The final wish wasn't really a blessing; it was a mockery of Ye Zhaoyu.

Ye Xiao couldn't help but glance at Ye Zhaoyu.

[Big brother must be feeling quite complicated.]
