Chapter 51: Luo Xixi: Male Lead Number Two, Please Respect Your Character Setting!

"Fortunately, the wound isn't deep. After cleaning it thoroughly, as long as you don't get it wet, it shouldn't get infected."

Suna said this while helping Luo Xixi clean her wound.

"..."

Luo Xixi stared at Suna without blinking. She remembered what the Baby System had told her: Suna's character was designed to be competitive, flamboyant, and overbearing, which was why she would later have so many conflicts with the female lead, attract so much hatred, and eventually die a miserable death.

But seeing Suna carefully treating her wound right now, Luo Xixi felt that this person didn't seem as bad as she had imagined.

"Why do you keep staring at me?"

Suna glanced at Luo Xixi and asked.

Luo Xixi immediately snapped back to reality and apologized to Suna with a smile, "No, thank you, Teacher Suna."

"What's there to thank me for?" Suna raised an eyebrow. "You got hurt helping us start the fire in the first place."

"Hehe, I just didn't expect you to help me treat the wound. I thought there was definitely a wall between big stars and little non-celebrities."

"Aren't stars human too? We have seven emotions and six desires in private; it's just that people on the outside love to deify us. Plus, with company packaging and the like, people feel like we're different from ordinary people, but don't we still have to eat, drink, and relieve ourselves?"

"Haha, Teacher Suna is right!"

"Don't call me Teacher Suna. You're not in the industry, and I'm a bit older than you, so just call me Sister Na."

"Okay, Sister Na!"

Luo Xixi didn't stand on ceremony.

Because Suna was beautiful, which hit the mark for Luo Xixi, and she was also very friendly to her, Luo Xixi's Favorability Value toward Suna naturally skyrocketed.

"You..."

Seeing that the atmosphere between them was good, Suna remembered Luo Xixi's inner voice from just a moment ago.

She really wanted to know why Luo Xixi knew what was going to happen in the future and where she learned it, but she was afraid that asking suddenly would be too abrupt. So, she paused for a few seconds, thought it over, and spoke again to probe: "You should be able to tell, I like Yan Yu, right?"

"Eh?"

Luo Xixi was stunned.

【Oh my, beauty, why are you so stubborn and insist on liking that crooked tree? You really won't have a good ending this way! I think you're such a good person, wouldn't it be better to like someone else!】

Suna heard Luo Xixi's inner voice again. She furrowed her brows, stared at Luo Xixi, and said, "Do you think, if I were with Yan Yu, how would it go? Would there be a good outcome?"

"Uh... can I tell the truth?"

Luo Xixi asked sheepishly.

"Speak!"

"I don't think there will be..."

"Why?!"

Suna pressed, leaning closer to Luo Xixi. "Why do you think there won't be a good outcome for me and Yan Yu? What is your basis for that?"

"This..."

Being pressed step by step by Suna, Luo Xixi felt her scalp tingle.

【How am I supposed to explain this? Should I tell her that this is originally a novel, and she is the vicious female Cannon Fodder in it, specifically set up to fight the female lead for a man and then get slapped in the face? If I say that, she'll probably think I've gone insane.】

Suna: "??????"

A novel?

She is a vicious female Cannon Fodder?

Has Luo Xixi really gone insane?

Hearing Luo Xixi's thoughts, Suna couldn't believe it at all. They were clearly living, breathing people; how could they be characters in a novel in Luo Xixi's eyes? Was there something wrong with this girl's brain?!

However.

Her inner thoughts were so detailed and logical that Suna was also confused.

"Um, Sister Na, I know you won't be happy hearing me say this, but I quite like you as a person, so I'll say one more thing: please don't target Shiqing. It's better for everyone that way."

【As long as she doesn't go against the female lead, at least her career won't be hit so hard.】

Suna knew that Luo Shiqing was the female lead in Luo Xixi's heart, and also the woman Yan Yu would fall for. But Yan Yu wasn't blind; how could he possibly take a fancy to that kind of affected, green-tea woman?

Although she still had doubts, Suna didn't continue to press, fearing that Luo Xixi would become suspicious. "Fine, I got it. As long as she doesn't provoke me, why would I lower myself to the level of a non-celebrity?"

"Mm-hmm! (⊙v⊙)"

Seeing Suna agree, Luo Xixi felt much more at ease.

She liked this beautiful, bright, and outspoken beauty, so she sincerely hoped her ending wouldn't be so miserable.

On the other side.

After Luo Xinian walked for a while with Luo Shiqing, he suddenly remembered that he had originally intended to take Luo Xixi to treat her wound. Why did he walk off with Shiqing? Where was Luo Xixi?

Luo Xinian turned his head abruptly, but where was there any sign of Luo Xixi?

Luo Xinian panicked immediately. Where did Luo Xixi go? She wouldn't be angry, would she?

"Shiqing, are you feeling better?"

Luo Xinian asked Luo Shiqing.

Seeing Luo Xinian's expression become tense, Luo Shiqing didn't understand why, so she replied in a soft tone: "I'm much better, Third Brother."

"That's good. You go join the others first; I still need to take Luo Xixi to clean her wound. I was too focused on you just now and forgot about her."

The moment Luo Xinian thought about his double-standard behavior, he felt extremely annoyed.

Was there something wrong with his brain?

Why did he forget about Luo Xixi!

【Host, Luo Xinian's Guilt Value toward Luo Xixi has increased by 100 points, converted into 5 points of Favorability Value. Current Favorability Value is 27.5 points.】

As soon as the Heartthrob System reported this, Luo Shiqing nearly fell apart.

Had Luo Xinian gone crazy?

Isn't it just that I didn't treat Luo Xixi's wound? It's just a bit of broken skin, is it really necessary to make such a fuss?!

Afraid that if they stayed longer, Luo Xinian would continue to act crazy with guilt toward Luo Xixi, Luo Shiqing hurriedly said, "Mm, Third Brother, let's hurry and find Sister. I'm also worried now that she might be angry."

"Mm."

Luo Xinian agreed, then hurriedly followed Luo Shiqing toward the back.

And when they returned to the main group, Luo Xixi and Suna had already returned; at this moment, a burst of exclamations erupted from the crowd.

Several people looked over curiously and saw Yan Yu cleanly and efficiently using a sharpened seashell to process snake meat; in no time, the two-meter-long snake had its skin removed, its poison glands extracted, and was chopped into segments by him.

"Brother Yan, you really are my idol, you're too amazing!"

"Did Brother Yan learn culinary arts somewhere before? This is just too professional!"

A group of people surrounded Yan Yu, showering him with flattery; Yan Yu didn't care at all, and after finishing processing the snake, he casually raised his head, his gaze immediately locking onto Luo Xixi as he walked toward her, "Xixi, has your wound been treated?"

"Huh?"

Seeing Yan Yu talking to her as if no one else were around, Luo Xixi thought, is the second male lead okay? What is he playing at, being so concerned about her? Shouldn't he be concerned about the female lead? Look! The female lead's eyes are already starting to glare at her.

Seeing Yan Yu's eyes practically glued to Luo Xixi, Luo Shiqing's face turned shades of green and white; she also didn't understand why Yan Yu was always so focused on Luo Xixi. Even if he wasn't that focused on her because of insufficient interaction, wasn't his character setting supposed to be interested in her from the moment she appeared? Yet, has Yan Yu even looked at her once??

Also not understanding, just like Luo Shiqing, was Sheng Tinglan, who was watching the livestream.

The man's heroic brows were almost knitted together; seeing the way Yan Yu was fussing over Luo Xixi, he found it unpleasant no matter how he looked at it.

【System, is this second male lead not right? Shouldn't he be more focused on Luo Shiqing? Why does he keep circling around Luo Xixi? Are you sure there's no problem with this plot?!】

The Help You Reach the Peak of Life System came online and responded: 【The plot is currently fine, because according to the cause and effect, Yan Yu is good friends with Luo Xixi's third brother, Luo Xinian, and since Luo Xixi was injured because of him, that is why Yan Yu is showing concern.】

"..."

After hearing the system's explanation, Sheng Tinglan did not dispel his doubts.

His gaze was locked tightly onto Yan Yu, his eyes deepening a fraction; although the system said it fit the plot, Sheng Tinglan's intuition told him that this guy named Yan Yu was definitely not as simple as just being the second male lead of this story.

Could he also have a system?
