How To Survive as a Villain

Zhang Baizhu, with his medicine basket on his back, pinched Xiao YuAn’s face and shouted: “Xiao-!…..”

Before he could finish his words, Xiao YuAn suddenly grabbed his throat and twisted his arm. Then he put some herbal medicines in Zhang Baizhu’s mouth to stop him from shouting again. Finally, Xiao YuAn threw him at the bushes again. When Xiao YuAn looked back, he saw Yan HeQing walking out of the wooden cabin, holding the door with one hand; his half-blind eyes were dazed as he turned his ears towards the direction of where the sudden noise came from. Then, he asked: “What’s wrong? What happened?”

“Everything is alright, it was just a big wild boar. I’ve already chased it away, Gongzi, so you can go back and rest.” Xiao YuAn replied with a smile.

Zhang Baizhu, while laying in the brushes, angrily threw a stone at Xiao YuAn.

Yan HeQing wanted to say something, but in the end, he didn’t say anything at all; and turned around to go back inside the wooden cabin.

Xiao YuAn breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

‘Damn! It’s a good thing that I reacted fast!!!! Thankfully, Yan HeQing didn’t hear my name!!!’

Only when Xiao YuAn saw that Yan HeQing had already walked back inside to the cabin, did he pick up Zhang Baizhu from the grass and dragged him up the mountain.

“Eh, eh, eh!!! What the hell are you doing?!!” Zhang Baizhu howled. “You know, since you haven’t returned to Taoyuan Village for so long, everyone began to think that you eloped! Oh, boy. I just caught you in the act! You’re really going to run away with a wild man! What are you doing?! Wow, will you really kill and bury me since I caught you?!”

Xiao YuAn found a trap pit abandoned by hunters and buried half of Zhang Baizhu’s body in it, adding more soil along the way.

Zhang Baizhu: “……. You’re really fucking burying me alive!!!”

Xiao YuAn patted the dirt off his hands with a smile on his face: “That’s enough, you’ll stop making a scene now.”

Zhang Baizhu: “Who the hell is making a scene?!!!! I’m the one who’s being made fun of. How about that?!”

Xiao YuAn ignored him, and asked instead: “Did I make LiuAn and Fenyue worry? It’s not like I didn’t want to go back on purpose, but that man you saw just now was badly injured, and it wasn’t convenient to go down the mountain until he got better.”

“Excuses, excuses. Then why are you using that small red fruit to turn your voice into a woman’s? I saw just now that that man didn’t have any problem with his eyes, am I right? Fuck! Xiao YuAn, are you pretending to be a woman to seduce him?!” Zhang Baizhu shouted in horror.

Xiao YuAn put his index finger and thumb against his chin and thought out loud: “When you say it like that, you’re actually not that wrong.”

Zhang Baizhu’s face instantly twisted with fright.

“It’s hard to explain, way too hard to explain. Zhang Baizhu, when you go back to the village, remember to tell LiuAn and Fengyue for me that I’m alright, and that I’ll be back in a few days; so there’s no need to worry too much about me.” Xiao YuAn said calmly.

Zhang Baizhu pulled himself out of the soil, and said: “Eh, how do I say this? Your two Geges took your Didi to see a doctor. Right now, only Third Aunt is in your residence.”

Xiao YuAn was stunned: “When?”

Zhang Baizhu replied: “Just a few days ago. They heard that there’s a doctor who specializes in treating difficult and miscellaneous diseases in the Western Shu Kingdom, and that he will take care of anyone’s illness no matter who they are. But by Heavens it’s a little far away from Taoyuan Village, so the journey will take more than ten days. Your two Geges inquired about this doctor and then took your Didi to see him.”

Xiao YuAn nodden thoughtfully and then asked: “Where’s Lin Shenling?”

“Ah, Lin-guniang… don’t you remember that my father sprained his back? Since he can’t go up to the mountain to pick up the medicinal herbs, I have to collect them for him. But the medical clinic and my father needs someone to take care of them, so I entrusted Lin-guniang with these two things…. Lin-guniang is very kind.” Zhang Baizhu said.

Xiao YuAn was still thinking about Xie Chungui’s visit to that mysterious doctor, so for a moment, he didn’t hear the joy in Zhang Baizhu’s tone when he mentioned Lin Shenling, and let out a careless sigh.

“Seriously, who the hell is that man?” Zhang Baizhu poked Xiao YuAn with his elbow.

Xiao YuAn pushed Zhang Baizhu’s hand away and replied: “He’s the enemy.”

Zhang Baizhu exaggeratedly shouted: “Shut up, he looks more like an ‘in-law’ to me.”

Xiao YuAn’s face was full of affection and a you-will-not-believe-it kind of expression: “If he knew who I am, he would definitely cut me into pieces.”

Zhang Baizhu was extremely puzzled: “Then why are you still taking care of him?”

Xiao YuAn’s mouth twitched: “Who knows. Perhaps it was sympathy, or perhaps I’m sick. Yes, I’m definitely sick, there must be something wrong with my brain.”

Zhang Baizhu said: “Xiao YuAn, you really like him, don’t you?!”

Xiao YuAn, who stayed silent for a long time, raised his head. The warm sun cast a mottled shadow through the leaves. The shadows on Xiao YuAn’s face were neither light or dark, it was so shadowy that it was difficult to read his expression: “No, I don’t like him.”

Zhang Baizhu, who stared at him for a long while, finally asked: “Is that man, perhaps, already married?”

“Yes…?” Xiao YuAn looked at him suspiciously: “Why do you ask?”

“Ah? Doesn’t he have that kind of personality? Like, if there’s no hope from the beginning, he simply runs away from his true feelings and doesn’t acknowledge them or think about them. Over time, he will fool even himself into thinking that they don’t exist at all.” Zhang Baizhu said.

Xiao YuAn clapped his hands: “Ah?! He actually has a good personality. He’s heartless, so he won’t be tired of living because of something like this!”

Zhang Baizhu waved his hand in disgust: “Fine, fine, whatever you think is good. Anyway, when are you going back?”

“I’ll return when the Male Lead gets better.” Xiao YuAn replied.

“You’d better hurry up, there will be a rainstorm in a few days, and this mountain is prone to collapse. It’s not safe to stay here much longer.” Zhang Baizhu warned him.

Xiao YuAn nodded his head.

Zhang Baizhu patted the soil on his body, and looked up at the sky: “Fine, alright, I should go down the mountain now.”

Xiao YuAn smiled and waved his hand: “Take care of yourself, I will not send you off.”

Zhang Baizhu pointed at him and exclaimed: “Look at you! You’re all smiles! You must be really eager to go back to that man after I’m gone! You must be!”

When Zhang Baizhu finished shouting, he pulled out his feet and ran down the mountain, not giving Xiao YuAn a chance to refute his theory.

Xiao YuAn put his hands to his mouth and shouted at the direction in which Zhan Baizhu was running: “Zhang Baizhu, are you stupid?! You’re going the wrong way!!”
