Ye Qingran said, “Do you think that you are the sun? Do you think that the Earth won’t turn after losing you? You think too highly of yourself. Who do you think you are? Why do you think that everyone else is going to revolve around you?”

Mu Qingxue’s tears fell and the determination in her heart was completely shattered.

However, she glared at Ye Qingran and continued, “I’m not the Sun, but I’m the female protagonist. Everyone should be surrounding me. I know Chu Yan wants to kill me, but he doesn’t dare to kill me because I’m the female protagonist. If I die, you, the female supporting role, will also die.”

Ye Qingran said softly, “It’s not that I don’t dare to kill you, it’s that I don’t need to dirty my hands because of you. What female protagonist? In my opinion, you’re just a woman who despises poverty, loves happiness, is greedy for vanity, and is selfish. For the sake of your reputation, you pretended to be kind. That’s why you pushed everything you did to the point where you had no choice and pretended to be a victim.”

Mu Qingxue shouted, “No, no, it’s not like that. Ye Qingran, you just can’t stand to see me get better. You just want to say these things to attack me.”

Ye Qingran asked, “What’s there to attack? You’re neither outstanding nor famous. You don’t have a good background or good looks. Why should I attack you? What ability do you have for me to attack you? You said that you’re the female protagonist, and that’s actually true. You’re indeed the female protagonist, but you’re only your own female protagonist because everyone is the protagonist in their own destiny. However, in the lives of others, you’ll always be a supporting role.”

At this point, Ye Qingran turned around and said, “I’ve already said what I should and shouldn’t say more. Hurry up and scram.”

“Ye Qingran!” Looking at Ye Qingran’s back, Mu Qingxue let out a loud roar.

However, Ye Qingran did not turn around until she disappeared from her sight.

Mu Qingxue did not believe it. When she came out from the villa where she was imprisoned, she still did not dare to believe it.

She felt that Ye Qingran would not let her off. She was the female protagonist. For Ye Qingran to treat her like this, there must be a trap. There must be a trap.

Ye Qingran must have set up this trap to take revenge. It must be…

Mu Qingxue was reluctant to leave.

“Ye Qingran, what are you trying to do? What are you scheming?”

“Ye Qingran, it’s useless no matter what you’re trying to do. I’m the female protagonist, I’m the female protagonist, I’m the female protagonist…”

Mu Qingxue looked a little crazy. The two words “female protagonist” had given her too much obsession.

She firmly believed that she was special and the center of the world. At this moment, it was like a beautiful dream had been ruthlessly pierced. She did not want to accept it, nor did she want to accept it.

Ye Qingran looked at Mu Qingxue’s staggering steps and the way she was being taken away. She felt that Mu Qingxue was quite pitiful.

She was unaware of the situation because of the desires in her heart. She had always thought that she was the main character and could control everything, but in the end, she was trapped to death.

In the past, Ye Qingran had always thought that this was a book. Even though she had thought of staying away from the plot of the book, she was still too immersed in the matter of the book and had neglected reality.

However, she had never thought that perhaps this book did not exist at all.

Even if it did exist, so what if it was really in the book? It was not certain who was the main character. Just by looking at Chu Yan, he had broken free from the consciousness of the book.

Ye Qingran looked at Chu Yan beside her and asked with a smile, “I said let her go, so you really let her go?”

Chu Yan replied, “I believe that you must have a reason for doing so.”

“Mu Qingxue told you that this world is a world in a book. She is the female protagonist and I am the female supporting character, but I am not… a female supporting character. I am an outsider.” The original Ye Qingran was framed and beaten up. She was severely injured and had a fever. She suddenly awakened her memory of being a female supporting character. She knew that she would meet a tragic end in the future. She could not take the blow and died immediately. I was muddle-headed and entered this world, I became the female supporting character, Ye Qingran. I will let Mu Qingxue off today. Not only will I let Mu Qingxue off, but I will also let myself off. I hope that from today onwards, I can completely separate myself from the original novel and make the story in this book turn into a real world.”

Ye Qingran explained.

After saying this, she felt relaxed.

It was as if a ray of sunlight had pierced through the dark clouds and landed in her heart. In an instant, spring had arrived and the flowers bloomed.

Chu Yan said, “You’re too soft-hearted. If I were you and knew that I was within a book and that we were enemies, I would definitely get rid of her at the first moment. I would definitely not give her a chance to fall apart.”

“Uh, I was too tired in the past and couldn’t have a good rest, so I treated it as a book. I just wanted to be a tourist and take it as a vacation for myself. When the female lead is with a few male leads, I can go back.”

As Ye Qingran spoke, she looked at Chu Yan with a smile. Suddenly, the topic changed. “Why don’t you care about your own role in the book?”

Chu Yan replied, “I don’t need to know because that’s not important to me.”

Ye Qingran insisted on telling him and laughed mockingly. “Mu Qingxue said that in the original novel, the person you like is her…”

Before she could finish her sentence, Chu Yan stopped her firmly. “That’s absolutely impossible. Other than you, I can’t be with anyone else, and I can’t like anyone else.”

Ye Qingran said, “But Mu Qingxue said that you’re also her male lead.”

Chu Yan said, “You just said that everyone is their own main lead.”

Ye Qingran said, “You eavesdropped on me.”

Chu Yan did not dwell on this topic. He only said, “Compared to who I am, I want to know who you were before you entered the book. How can I tie your fate to mine?”

Ye Qingran kept him in suspense. “What if I tell you who I am, then I will go back?”

“Then forget it,” Chu Yan said as he grabbed Ye Qingran’s hand and wrapped it tightly in his palm, as if he was afraid that she would disappear.

“I’m just teasing you. How is that possible? I won’t leave you.”

Ye Qingran smiled mischievously. It was impossible for her to leave so easily. She felt that if she wanted to leave, it had to be at the end of the story.

However, the current plot had already collapsed thousands of miles away.

The arrow was loosed and couldn’t be taken back.

It seemed that the plot of the female protagonist, Mu Qingxue, and the five male leads sleeping together and holding the wedding together would never appear again.

Chu Yan did not smile. There was a hint of seriousness on his face.

After he heard Ye Qingran’s words, he suddenly said something very strange and almost blurted out, “I hope that this time, it will really be as we wish.”

Chu Yan was a little stunned after he said that.

What this time?

Why did he use this time? Could it be that she had left him before?

The two of them looked at each other in astonishment.

Ye Qingran was slightly stunned. Why did he use ‘this time’? Ye Qingran blinked her eyes. Why did she feel that Chu Yan’s words sounded familiar.

Where had she heard it?
