Chapter 69 - What To Do if You’re the Villain and the Heroine Likes You

【Fan Zi Ruo's favorability has changed from 30 to 32】 【Fan Zi Ruo's favorability has changed from 32 to 33】 The afternoon literature class left a lasting impression on all the students present. Their major concern was, why did He Yun Xiao have so many questions? Mrs. Yu He spent a total of an hour explaining various strange questions to He Yun Xiao for half of the time during the class. You think He Yun Xiao is dumb? Every time he raises very incisive and tricky questions. You think he's smart? Then you feel he knows nothing and his only talent is asking questions. In fact, He Yun Xiao was also in a predicament. This Fan Zi Ruo is truly deserving of the title: [Difficulty Level: Hard]. Using the same trick of asking questions, the first time it was used, it earned a full 5 points of favorability. The second time it was only 2 points. The third time it was only 1 point. After that, it didn't even earn a single point. On this point, he seemed to have figured out the system's prevention of favorability abuse. The classes at the Lu Jiao Academy are usually held with two classes in the morning and two in the afternoon, for a total of four hours of class time. So, after Fan Zi Ruo finished one class, the students in the classroom had to wait for the next teacher to arrive and give them another lesson. Obviously, He Yun Xiao wouldn't let anyone else teach him. After Fan Zi Ruo picked up her books and left the classroom, He Yun Xiao also gathered his books and ink, preparing to leave. After several encounters, He Yun Xiao and Li Jin had become quite familiar. When Li Jin saw He Yun Xiao was about to leave, he asked, "He Yun Xiao, where are you going? Care to accompany me to the restroom?" Li Jin's words reminded He Yun Xiao of his school days. Back then, if he wanted to go to the restroom, even if it wasn't far, he had to gather a group of people to go. Those long gone student days... Now, He Yun Xiao had grown up. If he had to go with someone, it would be with a girl, not with a boy. He Yun Xiao replied, "You go on your own. I only go with girls." Li Jin immediately mocked, "Fool, what's the use of going with a girl?" He Yun Xiao patted Li Jin's shoulder with emphasis and seriousness, "Brother Li, when you get married, be good to your wife." As Li Jin was contemplating the meaning of He Yun Xiao's words, he realized that He Yun Xiao had vanished. He turned back and asked Meng Yan, "Meng Yan, go together?" Meng Yan replied, "Let's go." The break between the two classes lasted for nearly 30 minutes, giving many of the young masters the opportunity to meet their friends in other classrooms. As many of them had strict rules at home, it was not easy for them to go out and play, and the academy was a rare time for them to meet their friends. Huang Bu Ren didn't go out; he sat quietly without saying a word. His companion beside him asked, "Boss, aren't we going to seek revenge?" Huang Bu Ren had a determined and resolute gaze, and he replied, "We must seek revenge." Companion: "When should we make our move?" After being taught a lesson by He Yun Xiao, the current Huang Bu Ren had evolved; he was no longer the impulsive and brainless dandy he used to be. "He Yun Xiao possesses strong martial arts skills and his family's influence is also very powerful. We cannot fight an unbeatable enemy. Endurance, we must continue to endure." "Boss, till when do we have to endure?" "Hmph! With the military power the He family holds and standing on the side of the Prime Minister's family, they are a key target of the Meng royal family. We must endure until the day when the Crown Princess makes a move against He Yuan Hao. At that time, with the He family weakened, we can take advantage and crush He Yun Xiao directly!" His companion's eyes brightened, and he said, "Boss, that's brilliant!" ... He Yun Xiao was fully aware of the route from the academy to the Fan residence, so he didn't keep too close to Fan Zi Ruo. He followed her from a distance, watching the lady carrying her books as she walked back home, with a pace that seemed almost unchanged. He had put in so much effort throughout the morning and half the afternoon, and yet his favorability rating was only 33. If it weren't for the slight increases here and there, He Yun Xiao would have started to wonder whether Fan Zi Ruo truly liked men or not. Between the Fan residence and Lu Jiao Academy, there was a short fence made of small bamboo, which was low, clearly more of a deterrent to gentlemen than to He Yun Xiao. Fan Zi Ruo pushed open the small wooden door built into the fence and entered the Fan residence's premises. This time, He Yun Xiao didn't follow. He realized something; Fan Zi Ruo's favorability rating towards Nan Zhu was as high as 96. Could it be that she didn't actually like men? Soon enough, He Yun Xiao dismissed this thought. Upon their first meeting, Fan Zi Ruo had shown a remarkable increase in favorability towards Chu Fan, scaring He Yun Xiao into coming out to act like a clown. If she didn't like men, there was no reason for her to show such an increase in favorability towards Chu Fan. He Yun Xiao felt there was definitely some sort of secret at play that he had overlooked. Know yourself and your enemy, and you will never be in peril. He Yun Xiao utilized his lightness skill, silently sneaking into the Fan residence from another direction. The agility of He Yun Xiao, enhanced by Nan Zhu's reward, was unparalleled. Only someone like Chu Xiao Xiao, an extremely skilled expert, could possibly match him. An ordinary ninth-level practitioner would be no match at all. Although it was broad daylight, He Yun Xiao managed to slip inside the Fan residence without anyone noticing. The Fan residence wasn't large, and after he went through a few rooms, he found Fan Zi Ruo's location. Fan residence's study. It made sense; someone like Fan Zi Ruo, if not in the study, would be in her boudoir. In any case, she preferred to stay in a quiet space. Forcing her to go to a bustling place would probably feel like severe torture to her and would directly reduce her favorability. He Yun Xiao crept onto the study's roof and gently moved a tile, creating a small hole to get a direct view of the room's interior. Even when alone, Fan Zi Ruo maintained her calm and composed demeanor. She was reading in the study, and He Yun Xiao was observing her reading in the study. She kept reading, and He Yun Xiao kept observing. The text in the book was small, and even with He Yun Xiao's good eyesight, he couldn't make out what Fan Zi Ruo was reading. Hence, he really was just observing her reading. After an unknown period of time, the initially cool tiles on the roof had been heated enough to form the shape of a 'person'. Finally... finally! Fan Zi Ruo started to do something else! Her simple action of closing the book had He Yun Xiao's heart racing. At last, something else was about to happen! Then, He Yun Xiao noticed she got up to get another book. He Yun Xiao: ? Fortunately, she didn't spend much time with that book before closing it, and then she did something strange yet reasonable; she lay on the table to sleep. Seeing this action, He Yun Xiao heaved a sigh of relief. He had thought that a talented girl like Fan Zi Ruo wouldn't need to rest, but it turned out that, just like anyone else, she also got tired from reading too much. He Yun Xiao closed the tile and quietly descended from the roof, then gently pushed open the door to the Fan residence study. He Yun Xiao was as careful as possible, terrified of waking the just-sleeping Fan Zi Ruo. As luck would have it, the door to the study was unexpectedly creaky! Creak... groan... Embarrassing. "Yin Yun?" Fan Zi Ruo lifted her head from the desk, her usually spirited eyes half-opened, giving her a sleepy appearance. The plan had failed, so He Yun Xiao could only reluctantly say, "Mr. Zi Ruo, I've come for post-class tutoring." "Who are you?" "I am He Yun Xiao. Mrs. Zi Ruo? Mrs. Yu He?" Fan Zi Ruo shook her head as if in a daze. "Who is He Yun Xiao?" He Yun Xiao: ? Watching the currently absent-minded Fan Zi Ruo, He Yun Xiao just thought, "Wow! This girl takes longer to boot up!" Well, considering how many software have been installed, it's normal for it to take longer to boot up. Seizing the opportunity, He Yun Xiao ran to Fan Zi Ruo's side. He bent down and took a look at the desk. A martial arts novel!
