What To Do if You’re the Villain and the Heroine Likes You - Chapter 57

The Antler Academy is quite famous in Yinjing, and even in the whole of Qi.

It is known as a base for the manufacture of talents for imperial examinations.

If you make a name for yourself at the Academy, chances are that you will also do well in the written examinations.

Since the so-called “gentleman’s way” in Qi is not limited to the two arts of literature and martial arts, but also the six arts of ritual, music, archery, imperialism, calligraphy and mathematics, it is only natural that the other courses are also offered at Antler College.

However, courses other than those on literature and martial arts were “optional” and could be taken or not.

Most of the people in the academy, including most of the people in Yinjing, did not know the origin of the Director of the Antler Academy, as General Fan Yu had retired after Chu Tianzhu’s incident and had kept a very low profile.

He even went so far as to change his name to Fan Changshu, blurring his presence with a long time behind closed doors.

Moreover, people would not associate the great general, who lives by the sword, and the gentle and elegant director of the academy.

The disappearance of Fan Yu’s voice also made the protagonist Chu Fan search for a long time before he finally found out, after a lot of trouble, that Director Fan, was the Great General Fan.

And naturally, someone like He Yunxiao, who had read the book, had no such doubts.

Not only did he know that Director Fan was General Fan. He also knew that General Fan’s daughter was “destined” to be the protagonist.

Of course, to He Yunxiao, the fate of these two people was something that should never be allowed.

The only way to clear this “fate” is for him to work for Chu Xiaoxiao. However, recently, Xiaoxiao’s boss had given the word to add a job description: to help her get closer to Chu Fan.

He Yunxiao agrees with his mouth, but inwardly he is laughing.

Adding work when you say so? Extra work just like that?

I’m afraid you don’t know how many words there are in the Chinese character “salted fish”!

Wherever there is overtime, become a salted fish.

That said, although He Yunxiao did intend to be a salted fish in his new job, he was now following the “antidote” in the Antler Academy, but he did not dare to be careless.

The Antler Academy is open to the public, and even those who have not enrolled can enter the academy for a tour.

Therefore, Li Qingmeng and her swordsman, who were dressed as men, and He Yunxiao, who was sneaking around behind them, were not stopped in any way.

There was only one thing that He Yunxiao did not expect, and that was how famous he was in the Yinjing circle.

As soon as he entered the academy, he was constantly stared at, and there were even quite a few people talking about it.

“Isn’t that He Yunxiao? Why has he come to the academy?”

“Could it be that he’s also going to take part in the imperial examinations?”

“Don’t be ridiculous, it’s said that Young Master He can’t even write his own name.”

“Hey, have you guys heard? He Yunxiao has written quite a few good poems at the Spring Breeze Mansion!”

“You’re kidding, right? I can write one like that too.”

He Yunxiao was not afraid of being talked about. After all, he was so handsome that he had been talked about since he was a child. Otherwise, how did he get the bad reputation of being “full of evil”?

The worst thing was that He Yunxiao was exposed to the gaze of the crowd and could not follow Li Qingmeng too closely. but it so happened that when Li Qingmeng heard his name, she walked even faster!

In a few breaths, He Yunxiao had lost the antidote girl.

Cao.

The antidote is nowhere to be seen!

He Yunxiao was furious on the spot and said to these schoolchildren who were watching, “It’s already the end of October! The imperial examinations will be held in March next year! From today onwards, there are only a hundred days to go before the imperial examination! Aren’t you nervous? At your age, do you have time to gossip about others and sleep at night?”

The crowd’s originally good mood was immediately stirred up by He Yunxiao’s words.

They were suddenly anxious, and even those students who weren’t planning to take the imperial examinations next year felt that they couldn’t waste any more time. Everyone hurriedly walked around, each with panic written on their faces, and no one bothered with He Yunxiao.

He Yunxiao’s aim of selling his anxiety was successfully achieved, and after distracting most of his attention, he slowly searched for Li Qingmeng over along the place where she had disappeared.

Although General Fan was a brave general who slept on horseback, he was different from Du Lie. He was a scholarly general who could fight and strategise.

This can be seen by looking at the Antler Academy, which was converted from Fan’s residence.

The courtyard is a spacious avenue with quiet paths. In the courtyard there are often small rivers, rookeries, ponds, pavilions and weeping willows, making everything picturesque.

It is beautiful, but it also adds a lot of trouble for He Yunxiao, who is looking for someone.

Where the hell was he going to find them?

Just when He Yunxiao was at a loss, wandering around like a headless fly, there was the sound of leaves rustling and things falling from behind the corner ahead.

He Yunxiao took a look.

Ho!

It was the Antidote Lady picking fruit!

The swordsman, who had been traveling with her, was nowhere to be found.

She was on her tiptoes, her pretty face raised as she looked up at the tree, grabbed a branch, and shook it gently.

The leaves rustled, yet the fruit did not fall much.

She then shook it a little harder.

Sure enough, a lot of the ripe fruit fell off this time.

Some even fell directly onto her head, causing her to rub her head and stamp her feet in anger.

He Yunxiao looked amused and didn’t want to disturb her, so he kept his breathing under control and didn’t make much noise.

Then, He Yunxiao saw an even more hilarious scene, as the antidote girl picked up a few fruits that had not been broken, and then buried the broken fruits under the next tree. She just didn’t want it to return to its roots.

He Yunxiao watched her behavior and looked at the column of her personality in the system panel.

[Personality: strong self-esteem (to save face), lively, and black-bellied.

He sighed inwardly.

Why were all the female protagonists so “cute”?

There were “sickly” and “dog licking” in the front, and “innocent” and “dark” in the back. There was also Sister Jiang, who liked to joke around but was actually very reserved.

At this moment, He Yunxiao felt that it was great to be able to cross over.

He made eagle claws with his five fingers and then slowly made a fist!

I didn’t find a date in my last life. I want them all in this life!

Except, of course, for Chu Xiaoxiao, the world’s most beautiful girl, whom he couldn’t afford and could only have as a friend.

The girl dressed as a man, after burying the rotten fruit, took out the few good fruits left in her hand, wiped them with her cuffs, and blew on them with her mouth.

Finally, she cupped the fruit in front of her face with her slender hand and ate it with an “aww”.

She was facing He Yunxiao sideways, so He could not see her expression.

But He Yunxiao believed that she must be smiling, happy and cute at the moment.

Originally, He Yunxiao had planned to get closer to her. After all, he needed 80 good sense to get the “Hundred Compulsion Heart Protection Pill” as a reward. But now, when He Yunxiao saw how happy she was, he didn’t want to disturb her.

Anyway, he could do it at any time.

But just when He Yunxiao didn’t want to disturb Miss Antidote, Miss Antidote herself had an accident!

She suddenly bent down and coughed violently.

When He Yunxiao saw this, he knew that something was wrong.

She must have eaten the fruit and gotten stuck in the kernel!

This was no joke, if she gave up, it was not impossible for the kernel to block her windpipe and kill her!

It didn’t matter if he couldn’t get the antidote, or even if she didn’t have a favourable impression, except that He Yunxiao, a lustful man, had his own justice in mind – he could never stand by and watch something happen to a pretty girl in front of him!

What right does a man who lets beauty fade away mercilessly have to call himself lustful?

So he rushed straight out without saying a word.

Immediately standing behind the antidote girl, he wrapped his hands around her waist and made a fist above the small of her back. Then, a sharp blow to her upper abdomen!

The Heimlich Maneuver!

Thank goodness for modern technology!

It was very effective, and after two blows, the antidote girl coughed heavily and finally spat out the kernels.

He Yunxiao patted her back as a sign of comfort.

“Si….Brother … I’m a fellow student, are you alright?”

Damn it, I almost made a mistake.
