Villain - Peeking at the Diary, the Female Leads' Personas Collapse - Chapter 110

Chapter 110

In reality, no one truly cared about Ye Aotian; they just wanted to know. Even though Chen Fan couldn’t get under Ye Aotian’s skin, a man actually managed to do it? No, they had to investigate. They had to find out.

Everyone started sending people to track Ye Aotian. No. 7 was the fastest, finding Ye Aotian on camera quickly. There was no sound, but she found the live feed she needed from Jin Lan’s phone.

“Hello, sir. I’m Dafei, a scout from Starlight. You can call me Fei Fei.”

A rather effeminate man handed Ye Aotian a business card.

“You …” Ye Aotian was thoroughly disgusted by this sissy character. This guy started nauseating him from the moment he appeared.

“Have you ever thought of becoming a star? If you’re interested, I believe I can make you famous. Really.”

What the hell is wrong with you?

Ye Aotian shook his head and turned to leave.

“You truly have the potential to be a star. Your noble appearance exudes an aura of danger, and your sharp features combined with your smooth skin make you perfect. Do you know you’re like the brightest diamond, just waiting for a little polish to shine? If you’re willing, just one ad, one promotion, and you could become the next national heartthrob. Truly.”

Ye Aotian couldn’t take it anymore, grabbing Fei Fei’s collar. “Get lost. I’m not interested in being a star.”

He threw Fei Fei to the side.

Blushing, Fei Fei said, “Wow, even when you’re mad, you look handsome. You’re absolutely perfect for stardom. And if you become a star, you’d have the upper hand over Chen Fan.”

Ye Aotian, who had been about to walk away, stopped and looked at Fei Fei on the ground.

“What did you say? What do you know?”

“I know a lot. Never underestimate the power of any talent scout.” Fei Fei fluttered his eyes seductively at Ye Aotian.

All the female leads watching this were dumbfounded.

So, this author of the novel really has such broad tastes?

***

Why did author write the character Fei Fei? They pondered this question for a long time because, truthfully, this character didn’t really fit into the overall theme of the novel.

Why would you include such a flamboyant character in a modern urban novel, especially one aimed at a male audience?

However, not only was Fei Fei included, but the character turned out to be a highlight of the story. The author’s intention was simple: the most flamboyant person did the manliest things.

This would become evident later.

In the entertainment industry, Ye Aotian had quite a few enemies—not just Chen Fan. And precisely because he had many enemies, many people thought of kidnapping Fei Fei.

Torturing Fei Fei, then using that to embarrass the protagonist or something like that. However, this flamboyant character, even to his last breath, never truly gave in. Clearly, he was indeed a fierce warrior.

At least, in the eyes of the righteous side, this character was indeed worthy of the title of a “man.”

Just a flamboyant man, though. Of course, he also served as comic relief in parts.

Chen Fan was quite calm about this, though several female protagonists weren’t so relaxed. They were astonished to encounter such a character in a male-targeted novel for the first time.

“Confirmed, the author of this novel must be a failure. What kind of weird and quirky characters is he writing?”

However, if things ended like that, Chen Fan wouldn’t be laughing as wildly as he was now.

“You know what? It’s simple. With Cao Zijing’s intervention, the balance in Qincheng has been disrupted—or perhaps, you could say, it’s been reset to a new equilibrium. Your company’s stock is rising, but at the same time, Chen Fan’s is also growing.”

This part was accurate.

“Believe it or not, you’re feeling a sense of crisis now. You don’t know how to handle the presence of this woman.”

Ye Aotian said, “So, are you saying you have a solution?”

Fei Fei immediately took Ye Aotian’s hand and said, “Trust me, becoming a star is the best way to deal with Cao Zijing. If you don’t become a star, it’s a waste of talent. I think you’re meant to be the brightest star.”

Hell, I’m about to lose my mind!

“Wow, your hands are so beautiful. You’d also be a great model. Damn, you got even angrier. You’re even more attractive now; I like you even more.”

Tsk (disgusted).

Lin Qingyue, who was eating, spat out her food; it was way too gross.

Oh my god, thank goodness I didn’t stick to the plot and just went along with it. If I did, I’d probably get nauseated to death in the future.

Ye Aotian was indeed repulsed and said, “Let go. I’m losing it.”

Fei Fei sighed, tidying his hair, and said, “Sorry, got too excited and couldn’t control myself. If you want, I can connect you with someone. You can go for an audition today. I heard there’s a movie being filmed in Qincheng, and you’d be perfect for it.”

“Me? If I became a star, it might bring decent benefits to the company.”

“Miracle doctor, young, handsome, self-made, and can act—do you think there’s any reason you wouldn’t become a star with all these qualities?”

Ye Aotian was tempted and said, “Alright then, come back to the company with me and tell me more about it.”

“Okay.”

But as they walked, Fei Fei tried to take his hand again. Annoyed, Ye Aotian said, “I like women, not men.”

Fei Fei replied, “I just feel your hand is beautiful. Also, I think you’d be perfect to play an assassin. If you played an assassin, you’d captivate countless girls.”

Hell, I am an assassin, alright?

Ye Aotian was utterly dumbfounded.

How did he end up with such a quirky person? But, truth be told, what Fei Fei said was correct. And it was also a direct way to disgust Chen Fan.

Chen Fan had stars on his side, while Ye Aotian had no connections and didn’t know any stars. But that didn’t mean he was helpless.

If he didn’t have a star, he’ll just become one himself—that was the best approach.

After watching all this, Cao Zijing put down her phone. The Cao family still had some informants in Qincheng. Moreover, Cao Zijing herself had trained some people as well. They were her followers, accumulated over the years.

Cao Zijing herself was an antagonist. How could a villain not have followers?

“Fei Fei, huh? This part of the plot sure adds some complications. This guy does have terrifying connections.”

“Huh, who’s Fei Fei?” Zhu Yeqing, who was accompanying her at that moment, asked.

Looking at Zhu Yeqing, Cao Zijing replied, “A manager, quite famous in the industry. Practically anyone he sets his eyes on can become a star, so this situation is tricky.”

Zhu Yeqing said, “No matter how famous a star is, could they be more impressive than you?”

She muttered softly, not to mention that Zhu Yeqing was actually a fan of Cao Zijing herself.

Cao Zijing said, “You like imitating me. Your attire, everything—it’s all my style. So, you’re my fan, huh? Well, how about you start trying to please me now? Maybe when I make it big, you can play second.”

“No way, what are you talking about? I don’t understand.”
