Villain Marrying The Heroine Is Perfectly Plausible, Right? - Chapter 48:
Chapter 48: A Silent Understanding Between Me and Chen Lang:
Ye Chen’s words echoed with authority and confidence. The Xiao family’s hearts sank. On such an important occasion, how could this happen?
They were certain they had now become enemies of the Chen family.
Wouldn’t the Chen family think this was a deliberate act to resist them by exposing such information?
The Chen family’s Patriarch, seated on the stage, remained silent. His expression was unreadable as he watched the scene unfold, leaving everyone to wonder what he was thinking.
Chen Lang, in the eyes of the audience, seemed to be in a state of panic.
He was putting on the performance of a lifetime—his eyes were filled with a mix of anger, shock, and fear, portraying the desperation of someone who had just lost everything.
“Mingyue, don’t listen to him!” Chen Lang pleaded, his voice trembling. “Mingyue, don’t leave me! How can I live without you?”
It seemed as though Xiao Mingyue might walk away from him at any moment. He was desperate for Ye Chen to ruin the Chen and Xiao families’ image by running off with her, just as villains in novels do.
But he hoped they would stick to the script and not add unnecessary drama.
In stark contrast, Ye Chen stood on the stage exuding confidence. The audience fell silent, their eyes shifting to Xiao Mingyue, eager to see how the bride would respond.
Calmly, Xiao Mingyue took the microphone, her voice resonating clearly through the speakers. “First of all, I don’t know this man,” she said. “I have no idea where he came from. He does not represent my wishes in any way, and the so-called truths he’s speaking of are nothing but lies, completely fabricated and disconnected from reality. Please, understand this.”
Just as the audience began to murmur, Xiao Mingyue continued, “Furthermore, I know you’re all curious about why Chen Lang and I suddenly got married. After all, it doesn’t align with the rumors you’ve heard.”
She suddenly smiled sweetly. “The truth is, everyone misunderstood. Those rumors were just a little game between me and Chen Lang.”
“A game?” The audience was stunned. What did she mean by a game?
“Even in love,” she continued, “isn’t it more fun to pretend to be indifferent? Everyone thought there was tension between us, but it was all just part of our game!” Xiao Mingyue said, playfully sticking her tongue out at Chen Lang. “Honey, I’ve let out our secret! But since we’re married now, it’s okay to tell, right?”
Chen Lang responded with a dry chuckle. “Haha.”
At this point, Chen Lang was completely bewildered and numb.
How had a simple runaway bride plot turned into this?
So, all that chasing and running was just a game?
He began to suspect that Xiao Mingyue, like him, might have somehow entered this novel from another world.
Otherwise, how could she deviate so much from her original character?
He might as well hand her the pen and let her write the novel herself!
The audience, hearing Xiao Mingyue’s explanation, suddenly understood. “Ah, so it’s like the ancient drama of the beacon fire tricking the princes!”
“It’s just large-scale role-playing!”
“Wow, to play at this level, we really are amateurs in comparison!”
On stage, the Xiao family breathed a sigh of relief. Xiao Mingyue’s explanation had defused the crisis entirely.
But Ye Chen, standing in the audience, was left stunned by Xiao Mingyue’s words. He couldn’t comprehend what had just happened.
Was his information wrong?
Were they really just playing a game to deceive others?
No, that couldn’t be true!
Ye Chen gritted his teeth, his face contorted in frustration. He couldn’t accept this reality.
How could a goddess like Xiao Mingyue fall for someone like Chen Lang, a spoiled rich bastard?
Only he, Ye Chen, was worthy of Xiao Mingyue!
He had to win her over.
He couldn’t let her marry Chen Lang!
“No, I don’t believe it!” Ye Chen shouted, his voice filled with desperation. “You must have been forced to say that, Mingyue! Don’t listen to them!”
“This has to be a conspiracy between the Chen and Xiao families!” Ye Chen’s voice cracked as he struggled to contain his rage.
In a fit of anger, he grabbed a porcelain bowl and smashed it to the ground, shattering it to pieces.
But the only response he received was the crowd’s mocking laughter.
“Tsk tsk, starting to lose it, huh?”
“Stop adding drama to yourself. They’ve already explained everything, and you’re still trying to make this about you?”
“This guy’s a fool. Just ignore him.”
At this moment, Xiao Mingyue’s voice rang out again.
“You think I was forced? Let me show you something else!”
“Originally, this video wasn’t meant to be shown, but Chen Lang and I planned to watch it together in our later years as a memory of our love!”
“But since people keep spreading rumors about us and trying to tarnish the relationship between the Chen and Xiao families, today I’m going to put an end to these conspiracy theories once and for all!”
She turned to Chen Lang, her expression softening as she spoke apologetically, “My love, I’ve made the decision to share the memories we saved for our old age a little early. Please, forgive me?”
Chen Lang responded with another dry chuckle, “Haha.”
He thought inwardly, ““Play as much as you want. I’m already numb. Just show me what other surprises you have in store!”
