Chapter 281: Turning Defeat Into Victory
Rejected 99 Times, the Aloof Campus Belle Comes On Strong
Boss Cutie
Not to mention the fact that he was wearing a white suit, looking exactly like Prince Charming.
But what surprised Su Lin the most was his face. It was simply…
Su Lin’s gaze fell on Jiang Muye, who stood not far away beside Leng Ruoli, and then she looked back at the gentle, jade-like young man in front of her, growing more and more incredulous.
“You didn’t see wrong. I’m not Jiang Muye, I’m Yu Xi,” Yu Xi murmured into Su Lin’s ear. “This time, I can let you turn the tables.”
Su Lin’s red lips curved upward.
She never imagined that a male companion her butler had casually found through someone would look identical to Jiang Muye.
She had just been bullied so badly by Leng Ruoli, and now wasn’t a winning trump card standing right here?
Su Lin linked her arm through Yu Xi’s wrist and led him forward.
At that moment, Jiang Muye was still drinking the orange juice Leng Ruoli fed him, only for a tall figure to enter his field of vision.
When the other party looked at him with a fake smile, Jiang Muye nearly choked.
He stared at the young man in front of him in astonishment.
“Yu Xi, what are you doing here!” Jiang Muye’s eyes were sharp as a blade.
“Who wouldn’t want to come here? With you around, how could I be absent?” Yu Xi chuckled softly, a faint iciness seeping into his eyes.
Jiang Muye pressed his thin lips tightly together, deeply displeased.
He had stopped paying attention to Yu Xi, never expecting Yu Xi to actually show up now.
But even if Yu Xi had shown up, so what?
Yu Xi could only be savagely beaten by him. Last time he hadn’t been able to get Yu Xi locked up, so this time he’d scatter Yu Xi’s ashes to the wind.
Leng Ruoli stared at Yu Xi in displeasure. She had no idea how Yu Xi had gotten out, but if Yu Xi intended to oppose Jiang Muye, then she would absolutely not let him off easy.
When the others saw Yu Xi and Jiang Muye standing face to face, they were completely stunned.
“What’s going on here? These two look exactly alike!”
“Really, they’re so similar! Are they twin brothers!”
“I can’t even tell which one is Jiang Muye anymore! Are they blood relatives? Running into each other at an event like this out of nowhere, it feels like looking in a mirror.”
As everyone marveled, Su Lin held Yu Xi’s arm with a proud, smug air, and secretly sneered, “Fang Yu, I know you’ve always been quite fond of Yu Xi. Unfortunately, Yu Xi only likes seeing me. Since you can’t have him, why bother finding a counterfeit like Jiang Muye to be his stand-in?”
Su Lin’s voice was especially loud. The entire hall heard it.
Everyone was astonished. So the Leng Corporation’s heiress had this kind of love-hate drama hidden behind the scenes?
What a scandal! The esteemed Chen Clan’s future heir had actually been cuckolded, and reduced to a stand-in! This tip would absolutely make the headlines!
For a time, everyone looked at Jiang Muye with sympathy, and at Leng Ruoli with disdain.
At that moment, Yu Xi very cooperatively brushed Su Lin’s hair back behind her ear and said in an intimate, ambiguous tone, “Don’t say that. It’s already in the past.”
Compared to the abstinent Jiang Muye, Yu Xi was more tender. Especially when his beautiful eyes locked onto someone, they were like a river of clear spring water.
The girls who had just been moved by Jiang Muye were now bewitched by Yu Xi and began to envy Su Lin.
After Su Lin had once again become the center of attention, she was naturally smug, her voice even louder: “But my sister still hasn’t moved on.”
“Pfft.” A laugh rang out.
Su Lin was slightly stunned, and then she saw Leng Ruoli smiling with disdain.
She glared at Leng Ruoli indignantly.
Leng Ruoli, however, was calm and composed: “You know me so well, do you? You know I’m still pining over Yu Xi? If you’d bothered to ask around, you’d know I’ve known my boyfriend n times longer than I’ve known Yu Xi. What you said doesn’t hold up at all.”
Leng Ruoli threw herself into Jiang Muye’s arms, and Jiang Muye very skillfully played along with Leng Ruoli, the couple echoing each other perfectly.
Jiang Muye said to Su Lin indifferently, “Stop liking me. Even if you found Yu Xi as a stand-in, I still won’t like you.”
“???” Su Lin wore a black-man-question-mark face.
The crowd that had been enjoying the show immediately understood after hearing Jiang Muye’s words.
So the real stand-in was Yu Xi.
The one who loved but couldn’t have was Su Lin!
Su Lin was completely dumbfounded, now despised by everyone’s gazes.
And Jiang Muye’s stance made Su Lin look like a clown on a stage.
Most importantly, Jiang Muye played his trump card.
“Besides, do you think I’d become the stand-in for a molester?”
Jiang Muye’s arrogant tone left Su Lin frozen for a few seconds: “What? A molester!”
Leng Ruoli picked up where Jiang Muye left off, “That’s right. He was once involved in helping a molester assault a young woman, so be careful, Younger Cousin. Don’t let yourself be ruined. Of course, if the two of you have been secretly carrying on all along, then pretend I said nothing.”
Su Lin was instantly subjected to strange looks.
There were quite a few people pointing at her: “I never imagined Su Lin would be so shameless. Is this the Su family’s family values? How could she find a molester as her male companion? How frightening!”
“Tsk tsk tsk, Su Lin should just get lost. Her being here really lowers our class. How can Jiang Muye even compare to this counterfeit? Different class entirely, and she’s the one crying thief.”
“Exactly. No wonder I felt this Yu Xi had no class at all. Completely crushed by Young Master Jiang. The difference between people really is huge!”
Considering that Su Lin came from a wealthy family and was Leng Ruoli’s Younger Cousin, she had enjoyed a period of glory. When had she ever been so humiliated?
Shrimp-and-pig heart.
It would have been better to just chase her out than to stab her with every sharp word here!
“What exactly is going on here? What are you hiding!” Su Lin could only pretend to be the victim as she roared at Yu Xi.
Yu Xi’s jealous, hateful gaze swept over Jiang Muye.
Jiang Muye secretly curved his lips, looking down on Yu Xi with displeasure.
Under immense pressure, Yu Xi explained to Su Lin, “I’m not a molester. If I had a criminal record, I couldn’t have appeared here. I was wrongly accused before!”
“Wrongly accused? Is there any criminal who’d admit they actually committed a crime?” Leng Ruoli’s words were ice-cold. “There are detention records for you at the police station. One look and we’ll know. If you were innocent, why were you arrested?”
That single sentence threw the other young misses into a panic.
Although Yu Xi was very handsome and looked like Jiang Muye, who in reality would like a potential danger?
Especially if Yu Xi really had been involved in a molestation case. Then he was a ticking time bomb.
The Luo Fanter Banquet was the grandest banquet of all. If a dangerous element like Yu Xi appeared, it would be smashing their own signboard.
The safety of others couldn’t be guaranteed either.
For a time, people began throwing things at Yu Xi and Su Lin: “Get out!”
