What To Do if You’re the Villain and the Heroine Likes You - Chapter 65

.

.

Watching Du Yinyun lead Chu Xiaoxiao to prepare to leave, Fan Ziruo was trying to make a last ditch effort.

“Yinyun, don’t you have something for me?”

Du Yinyun said innocently, “No? Didn’t sister want to show Young Master He around the academy?”

Fan Ziruo said anxiously, “Think about it again.”

Without thinking, Du Yinyun began to comfort Fan Ziruo, “Sister, don’t worry about showing the guest around the academy. If there are any important matters in the Fan Mansion, I will do it for sister for now.”

After saying this, sister Du had a smile in the corner of her eyes and a somewhat happy tone, “Sister, then Miss Chu and I will leave first.”

Looking at Du Yinyun’s look, Fan Ziruo sort of understood that this stinky girl was doing it on purpose. So she said angrily, “Go now! Don’t come over here again!”

He Yunxiao looked at Fan Ziruo’s sulking expression and was slightly impressed, taking two steps back so that the view was wider, so that Fan Ziruo and sister Du could be seen together.

The favorability levels of these two were ruthlessly revealed at the same time as they appeared in He Yunxiao’s field of vision together.

[Fan Ziruo’s favourability towards Du Yinyun is 96]

[Du Yinyun’s favourability rating towards Fan Ziruo is 91]

[Du Yinyun’s favourability level is 95]

Sure enough.

Just now, Fan Ziruo’s sulking look was exactly the same as He Yunxiao’s guess.

Since her favorability towards Du Yinyun was high, it was easy for Sister Du to pull her emotions. And since her favorability towards me was very low, I could barely influence her emotions.

He Yunxiao understood one thing very well: emotions are the basis of relationships.

If you are unable to influence your partner’s emotions, then it means that you are not important to her heart.

He Yunxiao watched Sister Du go away and said to Fan Ziruo, “Miss Fan, let’s continue strolling.”

Fan Ziruo was not someone who liked to go back on her word, and even though it was not her original intention to take He Yunxiao around the academy alone, since things had come to this point, she did not want to shirk her responsibility and treat He Yunxiao perfunctorily.

She didn’t like He Yunxiao.

But she understood it well. One cannot choose how to treat others because of one’s own good or bad intentions.

There is a lesson to be taught, and all are treated equally.

As the sage said, so she had always done when she was teaching at the academy.

The two of them resumed their walk along the quiet green stone pathway of the Antler Academy. From time to time, Fan Ziruo explained to He Yunxiao some of the flowers, plants, buildings, poems, and allusions.

He Yunxiao followed behind Fan Ziruo. He listened to these, rather artistic things, she said, with his left ear and passed it through his right ear.

For He Yunxiao, if you ask him to admire the broken-armed Venus, he can give you two whole sentences high and low, but if you ask him to admire the flowers and plants, then he really has nothing to say.

Moreover, right now He Yunxiao was concentrating on the matter of raiding.

According to the experience of raiding sister Du.

If he wanted to completely save Fan Ziruo from Chu Xiaoxiao’s hunting list, there had to be two steps.

The first, was to raise favorability levels. It had to be raised to at least as high as Chu Fan’s.

The second, was to pull down her favorability level towards Chu Fan. When her good feeling towards Chu Fan was lowered low enough, Chu Xiaoxiao’s favorability towards her would be raised appropriately.

It was just like Sister Du’s now.

Chu Xiaoxiao had 30 favorable feelings towards Sister Du, with these to support her, even if she was now alone with Chu Xiaoxiao, there was absolutely no need to worry that Chu Xiaoxiao would make a move against her.

If it were Fan Ziruo’s turn, she would still have to do her best not to spend time alone with Chu Xiaoxia. Otherwise, incidents could easily occur.

At present, the biggest problem for He Yunxiao was that he did not know how to raise Fan Ziruo’s favorability level.

The two of them walked along the path, one in front of the other, and the distance was gradually pulled apart as He Yunxiao was distracted by thinking about the strategy.

Fan Ziruo stopped and turned to He Yunxiao and said, ” There is no need for Young Master to deliberately keep a distance from Ziruo, just stroll around the academy and walk side by side.”

Hearing these words, He Yunxiao walked quickly to her side. He thought that with this gesture of favor, her favourability level should have risen considerably. But when He Yunxiao took a closer look, it was still only a pitifully 15.

He knew that she was the most talented girl in Yinjing and was interested in poetry, songs and novels, so he used poetry as a topic of conversation.

He Yunxiao said, “I have heard for a long time that Miss Fan is very talented, I have one thing to ask you.”

Fan Ziruo stopped walking and looked at He Yunxiao sideways, “You want to ask about poetry?”

He Yunxiao was stunned.

Cao.

Guessed again?

He Yunxiao smiled awkwardly and said, “How did you know that I wanted to ask about poetry?”

Fan Ziruo said calmly, “Although Ziruo is somewhat famous, what I am good at is only what I have written with ink and brush. If you want to ask me for advice, it is mostly about poetry and articles. Recently, the only thing related to your writing and ink is the poetry competition at the Spring Wind Mansion. Therefore, you will most likely ask me for poetry.”

He Yunxiao laughed, “At first, you said you didn’t know ‘He Yunxiao’. How can you remember the poetry competition at the Spring Wind Mansion again?”

Fan Ziruo looked at the flowers on the roadside and slowly said, “Ziruo is not lying to you. If you had given your name, I would not have been able to recall it. If you had said, ‘Flowers bloom like fire’, then I would have been able to remember.”

Since we were talking about poetry, He Yunxiao asked in a smooth manner, “This poem received mixed reviews at the time, I wonder what you, Miss, think of it?”

“The poem is a good poem, although it is not metrical, but the rhythm of the poem is sufficient. The only thing I don’t understand is that the poem doesn’t look like it was written by young Master.”

He Yunxiao said awkwardly, “What about ‘Daming Lake’?”

Fan Ziruo said, “It doesn’t look like it either. Ziruo felt that if the Young Master had composed the poem, he would not have focused on the lotus leaf with the toad on it, but would have focused on the girl by the lake.”

Indeed.

This was said in such a way that even He Yunxiao himself wanted to nod his approval.

The more clever Fan Ziruo was, the more difficult it became for He Yunxiao.

This, playing a ruse and being seen through at a glance, writing a poem and being directly recognized. Even with all the effort, jokes, jesters, and comical things, it would not even touch her emotions!

This girl will only look at you with a calm face and watch you amuse yourself.

On the matter of copying the poem, He Yunxiao did not intend to hide anything from Fan Ziruo.

He said frankly, “At the time of the poetry competition, the poems I recited were not written by me, and this kind of behavior is actually considered copying poetry.”

Fan Zizhong’s face was as calm as water.

But in her heart, she was a little surprised.

She was not surprised that He Yunxiao had copied the poem. It was because she had long felt that the poem did not look like He Yunxiao had written it. She knew that in the circle of these good-for noting rich sons, it was not uncommon to buy and copy poems in order to gain face. She had no intention of holding He Yunxiao accountable.

However, she did not expect that He Yunxiao would not only admit it himself, but from the tone of his voice, he even expressed remorse?

The prodigal son will never change.

Especially a typical dude like He Yunxiao. If he could give up his evil and turn to good, it would be a beautiful thing.

Fan Ziruo’s instincts as a scholarship teacher encouraged He Yunxiao, “Let’s not talk about what happened in the past, as long as you don’t copy poems in the future, that will be fine.”

[Fan Ziruo’s favourability level changed from 15 to 20]

He Yunxiao:!!!

What happened?

What did I do? What did I do?

It’s a full 5 points!

He Yunxiao immediately reviewed what had just happened.

To put it simply, it was that he had expressed remorse for the act of copying the poem.

Although He Yunxiao was lecherous, his three views were very correct. As a modern man with a sense of copyright, he would naturally feel guilty towards the original author when he used someone else’s poetry to pretend to be a Gentelman. Copying poems was a necessity, and the resulting guilt was inevitable.

This was a natural thing for He Yunxiao.

Little did he know that it would, as a result, cause Fan Ziruo’s favourability towards him to rise!

He Yunxiao suddenly thought of a saying – people gather by their own kind. Things are divided by their own group.

If Fan Ziruo could be bosom friends with Du Yinyun and also one of the female protagonists of the original novel, then she must have a very decent outlook on three things.

If that’s the case, she couldn’t have turned a blind eye to the “lost pony”!

As long as I, the old villain, “return to the fold”, she will definitely help me with all her might!

He Yunxiao slapped his thigh!

The Cheat Code is in place to open a maiden’s heart!
