What To Do if You’re the Villain and the Heroine Likes You - CH 108

—Having talked about things that could not be spoken about, Fan Ziruo was too embarrassed to take the initiative to speak again and waited for He Yunxiao to talk.

This deadlock could only be broken by He Yunxiao himself.

“Ziruo, do you know how to write a romance story now?”

Fan Ziruo lifted her head a little and said, “Hmm. It’s probably to portray more of the dialogue and interaction between the male and female leads. Writing the bland everyday life in a vivid and interesting way.”

He Yunxiao immediately clapped his hands and said, “Right! That’s it!”

As expected of a female protagonist whose forte was “learning”, her learning speed was too exaggerated. With just a little nudge, she could instantly learn by example.

Now Fan Ziruo already had a story she wanted to write, so in order to let her write a story that everyone would love to read, He Yunxiao continued to guide her.

“Ziruo. How can you make a dull life vivid and interesting?”

Fan Ziruo thought for a moment and said, “Characters.”

Hearing the word “characters”, He Yunxiao’s eyes suddenly lit up!

Then he eagerly asked, “Tell me specifically, why characters?”

Fan Ziruo was looked at by He Yunxiao’s “greedy” gaze and said, “Because it’s a romance, most of the time is spent writing about the interaction between the male and female protagonists, so according to the length of the novel, the plot of the male and female protagonists will take up most of the time. Because the plot is just about eating and sleeping. So if the main characters themselves are interesting, then the story will be interesting, I think.”

If it wasn’t for the fear of losing favorability.

He Yunxiao simply wanted to stand up and applaud!

Genius! A true genius!

In just half an hour, she had already figured out all the valuable experience I had gained over the years of stumbling around!

This is really ……

This ……

I’m such a loser compared to Fan Ziruo ……

Since the favorability level was high, the current He Yunxiao could easily induce Fan Ziyou’s emotions.

Looking at He Yunxiao’s suddenly sunken expression, Fan Ziruo’s originally pleasant mood, lost as well. Fearing that she was wrong and had caused He Yunxiao’s disappointment, she asked timidly, “Young master, is what Ziruo said wrong?”

He Yunxiao denied it repeatedly, “No, no, no, you’re quite right. If you want to add colour to a bland everyday life plot, you just have to have a brilliant persona.”

“So, if you want to write a outstanding romance, you must have a colorful persona.”

Seeing that He Yunxiao was in a good mood, Fan Ziruo was happy, and she immediately asked the most crucial question: “What is a ‘brilliant persona’ then?”

This question was difficult to say, but also simple to say.

He Yunxiao explained, “If you can feel that the person is a living, breathing human being, then he is a ‘colourful persona’. He should have a name, personality, hobbies, flaws, desires and so on.”

He Yunxiao took out his manuscript paper and listed each of these elements on it.

“You fill all of these in, then the persona is basically complete.”

After handing this fill-in-the-blank manuscript paper to Fan Ziruo, He Yunxiao didn’t stay idle, pulling out a new piece of paper and writing these elements again as a form for designing the heroine’s persona.

After writing, He Yunxiao looked up at Fan Ziruo, who was holding a brush and frowning in thought, and felt a little more settled in heart.

Hey, sister Ziruo, it’s not that easy to write a persona. When I was trying to think of a persona, I couldn’t come up with one even though I was scratching my scalp.

Fan Ziruo is smart, but she is still within the realm of “human”. At most, she is a genius among human beings. She is much more real than a 16-year-old freak like Chu Xiaoxiao who is the best in the world. Even though she had a lot of knowledge in her belly, there was more knowledge that she didn’t know than He Yunxiao, who had the most extensive knowledge.

He Yunxiao watched Fan Ziruo frown for a long time, but he didn’t feel like disturbing her, and even blew on the ink on the paper that was still wet.

Later, when he got too bored, He Yunxiao pretended to be in a self-study class, like a teacher inspecting a student’s homework, and slipped behind Fan Ziruo with his arms folded to see what she had written.

On the paper, there was a sharp contrast between He Yunxiao’s dog-like handwriting and Fan Ziruo’s beautiful handwriting.

He Yunxiao didn’t think it mattered that his handwriting was ugly, but now that his dog-like handwriting was placed next to Fan’s beautiful handwriting, he really had the feeling of a toad on a swan.

It had an internal flavour.

Skimming over the general handwriting, He Yunxiao looked at the specifics of what Fan Ziruo had written.

Plot position: Male protagonist

Name: Xiao He

Cao!

Why is the main character’s surname Xiao?

He Yunxiao was physically uncomfortable when he saw the surname “Xiao”.

“Ziruo.”

Even though Fan Ziruo was frowning and thinking, He Yunxiao couldn’t care less.

When Fan Ziruo heard He Yunxiao call her, she immediately responded, “What’s wrong, Young Master?”

He Yunxiao pointed at “Xiao He” and said, “Ziruo, can you change the name of the male protagonist?”

When Fan Ziruo heard He Yunxiao say this, her face reddened slightly and she became nervous.

Young Master would not find out that “Xiao He” was actually a name based on the two homophones in “He Yunxiao”, right?

She asked sheepishly, “Why do you want to change the name ……?”

He Yunxiao replied sheepishly as well, “The reason for …… this is because I’ve read a novel before that also used this name.”

Fan homophone was so guilty that she did not dare to pursue the matter and hastily agreed to change the name.

She used a brush to cross out the word “Xiao He” and wrote “Xiao Yun” next to “Xiao He”.

He Yunxiao: ……

“Xiao Yun” is a thing, anyone who knows what it is will understand.

He Yunxiao was already dying of embarrassment, he said shakily, “Ziruo, can we not use ‘Xiao Yun’ either, can we change the surname?”

Fan Ziruo was also very embarrassed, she knew that if she used ‘Xiao Yun’ as a name, it would probably be discovered by her Young Master again, but she didn’t expect that it would be discovered so soon.

“Yes. What would you like to change it to?”

“Change it to …… change it to ……”

He Yunxiao was self aware that he sucks at naming, when he wrote novels in his last life, he had to mull over a name for most of the day. After thinking twice and having no clue, all he could do was say, “Haha, I don’t know, just don’t have the last name ‘Xiao’.”

Fan Ziruo said “Okay”, took the brush, thought about it, and then stole a glance at He Yunxiao. His heart was slightly torn, but he quickly settled down and wrote “He Xiao” on the paper.

He Yunxiao: ……

He Yunxiao was completely speechless.

“He Xiao” was the name he had used in his previous life, and now, I don’t know if it was a coincidence or what, but it had actually been written by Fan Ziruo by mistake.

He had already corrected Fan Ziruo’s name twice, but this time he could not do so again.

No one but himself knew that He Xiao was his former name anyway, and although it seemed slightly uncomfortable, it was much better than Xiao.

Fan Ziruo asked carefully, with a selfish feeling, “Young master, is it okay to be called ‘He Xiao’?”

He Yunxiao said helplessly, “Yes ..”

Fan Ziruo succeeded in her self-desire and said happily, “Good, from now on, ‘He Xiao’, will be the male protagonist in my new novel.”

He Yunxiao looked at Fan Ziruo so happy over a name and found something wrong.

He was an author himself, and there would inevitably be times when he would get entangled in personal stuff.

Fan Ziruo can’t be having some bad ideas..

“Ziruo, have you thought of a name for your heroine yet?”

He Yunxiao was standing on the back side of Fan Ziruo.

When she heard He Yunxiao ask this, Fan Ziruo weak put down her brush, turned sideways, raised her face, smiled and said as if to please, “Young master, the heroine’s name is Fan Zi, is that okay?”
