How To Survive as a Villain

Chapter 18: The Male Lead’s Fate Will Always Inevitably Be Full Of Misfortunes.

What do you mean that the bedside room is leaking and there’s no dry place? Where does it originate, the rain leak and why is it not being fixed? Where’s the cloth quilt that has been cold for many years?

Xiao YuAn felt that he had seen everything today.

The place where Yan HeQing lived, which couldn’t be called a house, was clearly a firewood room. There wasn’t even a single table and chair, let alone a bed; and at a glance, except for the broken wall, only the corner was pitifully filled up with firewood. Xiao YuAn was afraid that as soon as he raised his head, he will see the bitterness hanging on the hanging beam.

It’s so miserable…

Xiao YuAn’s robe was given to Yan HeQing. The room was leaking and the cold wind was blowing, making everyone tremble.

Yang LiuAn said, concerned: “Your Majesty, this place is too cold, you…”

Xiao YuAn said: “It’s a bit cold indeed. LiuAn, go back to the palace and bring me a robe.”

After Yang LiuAn complied, he walked out of the room in a hurry.

Xiao YuAn turned his head to look at Yan HeQing, who was standing at the side of the pestle, with blood dripping off his forehead. Xiao YuAn couldn’t help but take a deep breath of cold air.

Who did it! What should I do if you damage his face! That face will be used to conquer the world!

“Hong Xiu, go get some hot water and some medicine to cure his wound.” Xiao YuAn ordered Hong Xiu.

Hong Xiu nodded, walking out of the room.

Suddenly, the silence broke inside the room, Xiao YuAn and Yan HeQing were left alone.

Xiao YuAn turned around twice in the room and found no place to sit. He simply sat on the firewood stack, saw that Yan HeQing was still standing there, and patted the firewood around him: “Come, sit.”

Yan HeQing didn’t move a single muscle.

“Didn’t you bite me last time in prison? Come on, and give it another bite.” Xiao YuAn stood up and handed his hand towards Yan HeQing’s mouth.

Yan HeQing pursed his lips, but his expression didn’t change.

“Relax, I don’t have that kind of intention towards you. If I had it, I would’ve already done something.” Xiao YuAn pulled back his hand and went back to sit on the woodpile again.

After that, Yan HeQing’s eyes finally moved, he raised his head slightly and looked at Xiao YuAn.

Xiao YuAn gave him a small smile, and calmly looked at Yan HeQing.

After a while, Yan HeQing finally opened his mouth, and in a hoarse voice he asked: “Then why did you do this…”

Xiao YuAn answered in a serious tone: “Because I’m the investment that you need to recharge into your account.”

Yan HeQing: “…”

Xiao YuAn: “Cough… actually, because of love, I don’t easily feel sorrow, so everything should be happiness.”

Xiao YuAn sang out loud!

Yan HeQing’s expression was somewhat broken.

Xiao YuAn held back his smile and waved his hands again and again: “I’m joking, joking, don’t get angry. In short, you can rest assured that I don’t harbour any ill intentions towards you. As for why, I may tell you if there’s a chance in the future, now you can choose whether to believe me or not.”

Yan HeQing’s eyes were a little heavy: “But when I was in prison…”

Can you stop being so vengeful, male hero?! Am I pulling my sword in front of you right now?! After pulling it out that time, I didn’t do anything to you! How can you still remember that now!

“That’s because I’m afraid of you.” Xiao YuAn told him the truth.

Yan HeQing’s eyes cleared and mysteriously flashed: “Afraid of me?”

Xiao YuAn didn’t explain himself yet when Hong Xiu suddenly walked in, with a basin of hot water on her hands. She handed the healing medicine to Xiao YuAn: “Your Majesty, the water is ready.”

Xiao YuAn took the medicine: “You’ve worked hard. By the way, give me the hairpin.”

Hong Xiu took the hairpin carefully from her sleeve and gave it to him. As soon as Xiao YuAn turned around, he saw Yan HeQing staring intensely at the hairpin in his hands. Xiao YuAn smiled and walked in front of him, handing out the hairpin: “Here, take it.”

Yan HeQing stared at Xiao YuAn for a long while, finally reaching out to take it back.

Unexpectedly, Xiao YuAn suddenly turned his hands and smiled. His smile didn’t change: “Wait, I have a condition.”

Yan HeQing received an empty space, he was neither anxious nor annoyed, he silently looked at Xiao YuAn again.

Xiao YuAn said: “If you wash your face and apply the medicine, I will give you back the hairpin.”

Knowing that it was meaningless to cover his face with black charcoal, Yan HeQing went to the basin filled with water and started to wash his face. Xiao YuAn looked at him instantly.

The water in the basin gradually became dirty. Yan HeQing washed his cheeks and hands, and raised his head.

There were thousands of mountains and rivers inside his eyes, and the water was shining between his lips and tongue, look at the bright moonlight, and the ten thousand lights. It’s all about the beauty of his face; look at that mountain again, look at the overlapping mountains again, it’s all about the straightness of his nose.

Xiao YuAn sighed with emotion: Ah! These eyes. Ah! These eyebrows. Ah! These lips. Ah! The beauty.

No! I have to look at it again.

Ah! These eyes. Ah! These eyebrows. Ah! These lips. Ah! The beauty.

Yan HeQing wiped his face clean, and set his eyes on the jade hairpin in Xiao YuAn hands.

What are you looking at? I didn’t say no to you. Don’t look at me with that burning eyes of yours. I know you’re going to use this to beg for a wife.

Xiao YuAn handed the jade hairpin to Yan Heqing with a smile: “Take it, after all, it’s a relic from you mother.”

Yan HeQing stiffened and looked at Xiao YuAn, his face showing a shocking expression.

This hairpin, he had never talked about it with no one from the Northern Kingdom!

Ignoring Yan HeQing’s surprise, Xiao YuAn turned to Hong Xiu and said, “Hong Xiu, wait outside first, and don’t let anyone get inside here for a while.”
