Chapter 344: There’s No One Else in My Heart

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Yu Niaoniao had already drawn more than ten pages of the new book.

Originally, she had planned to draw a story about a hero.

But after what had happened today, she had changed her mind.

She realized that the customers in the bookstore were all men. In other words, her readership was almost exclusively male.

What kind of stories did men like?

Naturally, it was satisfying prose about the male lead marrying a fair, rich, and beautiful woman to reach the peak of his life.

The Seven Treasures Record happened to tell such a cliché and melodramatic story.

At first, Yu Niaoniao was puzzled. The storyline of the Seven Treasures Record was clearly very ordinary and there was nothing particularly attractive about it.

Even if it could rely on novel expressions like comics to attract people’s attention, the novelty was limited. After a while, the popularity would decrease, and there would be fewer people buying books.

But the truth was the opposite of what she had expected.

The sales of the Seven Treasures Record had not decreased over time. It had been almost a month since it was released, but there were still many people queuing up to buy the Seven Treasures Record.

It was not until today that Yu Niaoniao personally went to the bookstore to take a look that she knew the reason.

The people who bought books were all men. The Seven Treasures Record happened to cater to their likes. In addition, comics were a novel form of expression, so it was naturally sought after by male readers.

Even a sharp-eyed, picky, and mean man like Wei Liao had become a fan of the Seven Treasures Record.

Yu Niaoniao felt that this was a good opportunity.

Wasn’t Wei Liao looking forward to her new book?

Then she would write a new book that would keep men hooked.

What book had been the most irresistible since ancient times?

Naturally, it was torture!

Yu Niaoniao quickly went through all the new media abuse stories she had seen in the past in her mind. She quickly had an outline.

She picked up her pen and wrote the title of the book on the first page, The Record of the Phoenix Cry Nation.

Legend had it that there was a Phoenix Cry Nation in the distance.

In this country, women were respected. From the emperor and the civil and military officials to the head of the household, they were all women. Men could only rely on women’s graces.

The male lead was a little mute and very handsome. His family arranged for him to marry a domineering female princess.

The princess was domineering and fierce to outsiders, but she was very gentle to the little mute.

The little mute had unknowingly fallen in love with the princess.

However, just after he fell in love, he accidentally realized that the princess did not love him.

There was a first love hidden in the princess’s heart. It was only because he looked a little similar to her first love that the princess was so gentle to him. After the truth was torn open, the little mute was inconsolable and wished he was dead.

He went to ask the princess for clarification, but because the antagonist interfered, the princess misunderstood him, and he could not explain himself because he was mute.

In a fit of anger, the princess imprisoned him and abused him in all kinds of ways.

Yu Niaoniao drew dozens of pages in one go.

When she was drawing the little mute, she automatically brought Wei Liao’s annoying face into the picture, so the male protagonist looked a little like Wei Liao.

This was especially true of the little mute’s peach blossom eyes. They were affectionate when he looked at people, and pitiful when he cried. Tsk tsk tsk, he could be said to be an outstanding example of a protagonist!

When Xiao Juan returned to the Langjun Imperial Palace in the evening, he realized that Yu Niaoniao was still painting.

He heard from Granny Xiu Yan that Niaoniao had been painting for most of the day, so he walked over and knocked on the desk to remind her.

“It’s almost dark. Stop drawing and rest.”

Yu Niaoniao looked up and rubbed her sore eyes.

She saw that the sky had darkened outside the window and realized that it was almost night.

She couldn’t help but mutter.

“Time sure flies!”

Xiao Juan was helpless. “Why are you so diligent today?”

Usually, she would draw twice when she felt like it. Most of the time, she could not be bothered to draw for such a long time. She delayed the date of submission. Anyway, those booksellers would not dare to do anything to her.

Yu Niaoniao smiled slyly.

“I’ve recently thought of a new story. My mind is racing, so I draw especially quickly.”

Xiao Juan was a little curious. “What story did you draw?”

“I’m not done yet. If you don’t mind, you can take a look first.”

As Yu Niaoniao spoke, she handed over the draft.

Xiao Juan took the draft and flipped through it.

When he saw the settings of the Phoenix Cry Nation, his face did not have much of an expression. After all, there were all kinds of strange things in the Chiliocosm. Even if there was really a country where women were respected, it was fine.

When he saw the little mute and the domineering princess fall in love and the two of them being intimate, his expression still did not change.

It was not until the little mute realized that the princess had someone in her heart and that he was just a substitute that Xiao Juan’s expression finally changed subtly.

He frowned slightly as if he disapproved of the princess’s actions.

However, he still read on patiently, hoping that the princess would come to her senses and pity the person in front of her.

In the end, not only did the princess not become kinder, but she also became more and more inhumane.

She tore off her affectionate disguise and imprisoned the little mute. She began to torture him both physically and mentally.

Xiao Juan’s frown deepened.

When he finished the last page, he asked, “What about the rest?”

Yu Niaoniao answered honestly, “I haven’t drawn it yet.” Xiao Juan put down the draft with a very serious expression. “Why did you think of such a plot?”

Yu Niaoniao blinked, not understanding why he was asking. She answered innocently, “I was just imagining things.” Xiao Juan stared into her eyes and asked doubtfully. “Can you get to such a plot just by imagining?”

Yu Niaoniao asked, ‘What’s wrong with this plot?”

Xiao Juan placed his hands behind his back as if he was thinking about what to say.

It was a long time before he spoke. “There’s no one else in my heart.”

Yu Niaoniao was confused. “Huh?”

Why were they suddenly talking about this?

Xiao Juan continued, “If I had someone I liked, I would never force you to be with me.”

It was Yu Niaoniao’s turn to be surprised.

“You already have someone you like? Who is it? Do I know her?”

Xiao Juan did not know how to answer these questions, so he skipped them and continued.

“We’re husband and wife. We should respect and tolerate each other. Even if you don’t like me anymore and don’t want to be with me, you can tell me directly. I definitely won’t imprison and abuse you.” Google search 𝗳𝔯𝒆e𝘸𝗲𝗯𝓷𝗼𝘃𝘦l. 𝒄o𝓂

Logically speaking, Yu Niaoniao should be quite touched, but she was still more confused.

“Why are you telling me this?”

Xiao Juan pointed at the draft on the desk with an extremely serious expression.

“You wouldn’t come up with such an extreme plot for no reason. You must have been agitated in reality.”

Yu Niaoniao recalled Wei Liao’s annoying face and nodded. “Yes, I was indeed a little agitated.”

If Wei Liao hadn’t insisted on looking for trouble, she wouldn’t have thought of drawing sadistic essays.

Xiao Juan said, “If you have something on your mind, you can tell me. Don’t be like the little mute in the story and keep everything in your heart.”

Yu Niaoniao nodded in confusion.

“Oh..”
