Chapter 214: What Exactly Is Your Goal

Yu Xi's hand had already grabbed Jiang Muye's jacket and was helping him pull up the zipper. His fingertips were slightly cool, and when they brushed against him, Jiang Muye felt a chill that raised goosebumps.

Especially with Yu Xi's meaningful gaze fixed on Jiang Muye, it made Jiang Muye sick to the extreme.

Jiang Muye angrily slapped Yu Xi's hand away and said with disgust, "Stop your damn nagging! You think I'm afraid of you? I hate you! If you hadn't come provoking me, you could've kept to yourself, but you just had to pull all these flashy tricks. How could I possibly let you off?"

His finger tapped at Yu Xi in displeasure. "I originally ordered you to drop out within a week. Now, drop out immediately!"

Yu Xi burst out laughing.

"What are you laughing at, you piece of shit!" Jiang Muye cursed in disgust.

"You think making me drop out will drive me away? As long as I want to appear, I can appear whenever I want." Yu Xi smiled. "I won't let go easily. Whether it's stealing your girlfriend, stealing your popularity, or replacing you, I won't give up."

After hearing Yu Xi's words, Jiang Muye burned with rage and threw a punch right into Yu Xi's face.

Yu Xi staggered back a few steps, the corner of his mouth already red and purple, but even after being hit, he was still smiling.

Jiang Muye cursed furiously, "Then I'll make you disappear completely from my side. You know my background—I can absolutely restrict you abroad so you can never come back. Aren't you afraid of that?"

Jiang Muye was gambling that Yu Xi wouldn't give up his freedom.

A smart person would have backed off completely at this point instead of continuing to push aggressively.

"Mm-hmm, so you're planning to kidnap me, hold me under house arrest? That's not bad. If a scandal like that comes to light, do you think you'll still be able to sit securely as the heir of Chen Group? I'm afraid by then, everyone will turn against you, and your fate might be even more miserable than mine." Yu Xi's smiling eyes carried mockery.

But Jiang Muye stepped on Yu Xi's leg and looked down at him from above. "You think I care about Chen Group? Even if I'm not the heir, I can create a financial empire even more badass than Chen Group!"

Chen Group was just the icing on the cake for Jiang Muye, not a necessity.

Yu Xi looked at Jiang Muye resentfully and said, "Anyone can say pretty words like that. You say one thing and do another! Jiang Muye, you want to get me out of the school, but I'm staying put."

He gritted his back teeth and squeezed out, "The more I deny you what you want, the better I feel."

Jiang Muye's gaze turned ice-cold. He grabbed Yu Xi by the collar and snarled, "If a dog bites me, I can make sure it hurts. A good dog doesn't block the road—if you're smart, you'll learn to behave."

Yu Xi sneered, "At least I can make you hurt for a while too. Isn't that enough?"

Jiang Muye was startled to see the hatred flickering in Yu Xi's eyes. He couldn't understand it.

This guy who had an identical face to his own—what deep hatred did he actually have toward him?

To want to make his life unbearable this badly.

"What exactly is your goal?" Jiang Muye looked at Yu Xi with displeasure.

"To replace you."

Yu Xi's eyes burned with heat, carrying a deep obsession. "We clearly have the same face, so why is our fate so different? On what basis do you have what I don't? At least our fates being intertwined would be fair, wouldn't it?"

Jiang Muye instantly saw Yu Xi's ambition.

"You're a lunatic!" Jiang Muye spat and threw Yu Xi off.

Yu Xi laughed crazily. "That's right, I'm a lunatic. I'll take everything that isn't yours. Who told you to sit so comfortably in this position and hog it for so long!"

Jiang Muye lowered his eyes, his thin lips pressed tight. "Anyone who offends me won't come to a good end. If you don't believe me, go ahead and try. I just fear by then you'll drag your parents into cleaning up your mess."

Just as Jiang Muye was about to turn and leave, a light, airy voice sounded.

"You're not that naive, are you? You really think those are my parents?"

Jiang Muye whipped around to look at Yu Xi.

Yu Xi nodded, a strange deep smile on his face. "If you could help me get rid of them, I'd be more than happy. They're not my weakness—do whatever you want."

When Jiang Muye heard this, his expression changed drastically.

He saw the hatred in Yu Xi's eyes toward his parents.

This was absolutely not normal. What had Yu Xi's parents actually done to make Yu Xi hate them so much that he wouldn't even acknowledge them?

The problem was, Yu Xi's parents had now disappeared without a trace.

Even now, after Jiang Muye had sent private investigators, Yu Xi's parents still hadn't been found. Their whereabouts were unknown. If it really was like Yu Xi said, then he truly had no way to use Yu Xi's parents to threaten him.

"So what?" Jiang Muye thought for a moment, then smiled and looked at Yu Xi. "Sooner or later, I'll find your weakness."

Jiang Muye could absolutely go ahead and imprison Yu Xi, or get him thrown in jail, or have him restricted from entering the country.

But those were too inhumane, too shameless, and would break the law.

He also had no interest in playing those kinds of games. He had all the time in the world—he would definitely find a way to repel Yu Xi.

Jiang Muye would protect everything he wanted to protect, and absolutely would not let anyone take it from him.

After Jiang Muye left, Yu Xi stood up wearily.

Just then, his phone rang.

Only when he saw the caller on the screen did a rare warmth surface in Yu Xi's eyes.

"The plan has been carried out. You don't need to worry about me—this time I'll destroy him completely." After answering the call, Yu Xi murmured softly to the person on the other end, his gaze falling meaningfully into the distance.

When Jiang Muye returned to the cafeteria, he found Leng Ruoli with both hands resting on the table, the food on the table sitting there untouched.

When her gaze met Jiang Muye's, an excited faint smile immediately spread across her face.

Jiang Muye's mood instantly lifted, his heartbeat quickening as he quickly jogged over to Leng Ruoli. Seeing the untouched food on the table, he was very puzzled. "Why haven't you eaten anything?"

"Waiting to eat with you." Leng Ruoli's eyelashes curved, her smile sweet. "Meals are only tasty when shared together~"

Hearing Leng Ruoli's light, melodious voice, Jiang Muye felt immensely comfortable.

He really hadn't doted on Leng Ruoli for nothing.

His girlfriend thought of him when the critical moment came.

This made Jiang Muye feel wonderful. He immediately sat down and urged Leng Ruoli, "Don't do this next time. Look, the food's gone cold."

"It's not cold. Look, it's still steaming." Leng Ruoli smiled brightly. After picking up her chopsticks, she placed the crispy chicken wings into Jiang Muye's bowl and said, "Here."

"Didn't we agree these were for you?" Jiang Muye raised an eyebrow.

"A reward for you. You helped me solve a big problem." Leng Ruoli's eyes curved upward, carrying a warm temperature.
