Chapter 424: A Complete Makeover

Rejected 99 Times, the Aloof Campus Belle Comes On Strong

Boss Cutie

Yu Xi was being squeezed dry by his adoptive parents, manipulated like a puppet, and forced to service old, fading women every day—even perverted men.

Huo Zhenghao had latched onto Yu Xi's fragile, sensitive personality. He could toy with him however he pleased, turning Yu Xi into a pawn he could use at will.

Naturally, Huo Zhenghao's ultimate goal was to use Yu Xi to completely replace Jiang Muye, and in the end inherit the Chen Group in Jiang Muye's place.

And Yu Xi simply wanted a change of identity—to become someone else entirely.

The two of them naturally hit it off at once.

They had never imagined that an accident would occur along the way, and as a result, everything hurtled in a direction neither of them had anticipated.

When Huo Zhenghao was viciously berating Jiang Muye, Jiang Muye had already reached his limit.

He hadn't come here to beg for an apology—he wanted to destroy someone.

Compared to the sight of Huo Zhenghao weeping and wailing before him, Jiang Muye would rather watch Huo Zhenghao drown in despair.

Without a shred of hesitation, Jiang Muye went to the System's shop.

I want to exchange for Mind-Body Control, Jiang Muye said to the System.

The System reminded him: 【Very well. It requires one thousand Grit Points. Are you certain you wish to use it?】

Jiang Muye clicked confirm: Confirm.

After his dealings with the System, "Mind-Body Control" was instantly redeemed and activated.

Following the steps, Jiang Muye directly used his mind to start controlling Huo Zhenghao beside him.

Huo Zhenghao's eyes grew cloudy.

Different from his ferocious, vicious appearance just moments ago, he now walked forward like a puppet on strings.

The auction was still in progress, and the auction intermediary and the crowd stared in astonishment as Huo Zhenghao walked forward.

The auction intermediary was entirely unprepared for this sudden development, and looked a bit dumbfounded. "President Huo, what's wrong with you?"

Huo Zhenghao stared blankly at the front row, then picked up the microphone. "I have an announcement to make here."

At the same time, Jiang Muye was silently reciting as he controlled him.

Huo Zhenghao shouted loudly, "I'm a homosexual! I also have a cross-dressing fetish, and I love exposing myself! I love streaking naked at night! If you're my brother, come fuck me!"

As Huo Zhenghao loudly announced these things, the entire room was shocked.

Huo Zhenghao was quite famous in these circles—after all, he had once been the Chen family heir. But now he was actually coming out at such an important occasion? And exposing his fetishes too?

So was it because Huo Zhenghao was homosexual that he'd had his heir status revoked?

The reporters on the scene were thrilled out of their minds.

They had never imagined they'd catch such huge news—this was enough to shock the whole world!

However, the reporters had no idea this was only the beginning. There was even more explosive material to come.

"I, Huo Zhenghao, cannot bear the condemnation of my conscience. I hereby report myself—I've evaded nearly 170 million in taxes, and I've also set up shell companies to help the Linlei Group dodge taxes!" Huo Zhenghao directly dragged out his backer, Lin Lei, as well.

After hearing Huo Zhenghao's words, everyone's jaws practically dropped to the floor.

Coming out was one thing—that was personal privacy. But self-reporting tax evasion involved company secrets!

This was the kind of thing everyone avoided at all costs—it implicated the company's interests, back taxes, and it was a criminal matter. Impossible to just carelessly announce to the public!

It seemed that when a person got ruthless, he'd even stab himself!

This guy was a werewolf!

Everyone else began to admire how crazy Huo Zhenghao was—otherwise how could he be stupid enough to say all this?

He'd even dragged the massive Linlei Group down with him!

Yet none of them knew that the one controlling all of this was Jiang Muye.

Jiang Muye was very satisfied with this skill. He'd had people dig up these little secrets of Huo Zhenghao, precisely intending to give Huo Zhenghao Social Death!

The reporters swarmed up and surrounded Huo Zhenghao.

By now, Huo Zhenghao was no longer under Jiang Muye's soul control. He had regained awareness, and when he snapped to his senses, he was shocked to find himself already on stage.

The reporters' cameras and microphones kept thrusting toward his face.

"Young Master Huo, was everything you just said true?!"

"What gave you the motivation to dare admit it publicly?"

All of this had happened extremely fast.

Huo Zhenghao was completely dumbfounded.

He was certain he wouldn't be stupid enough to make a werewolf suicide jump.

After all, these were secrets that could thoroughly destroy him.

But now the reporters were digging to the bottom of it, seemingly giving Huo Zhenghao no chance to catch his breath at all.

Huo Zhenghao directly covered his face with his hands and frantically explained, "No no no, I was joking!"

Had his brain short-circuited, saying those things?

While Huo Zhenghao's spirit was weakening, the reporters were sharp. "But what you just said sounded very serious—it didn't seem like a joke."

"And we'll also ask the police to investigate whether this matter is true."

Huo Zhenghao's expression grew more ashen and pale.

If this matter got out, and there was a third-party investigation, he was truly finished.

"No, I really was joking, I misspoke, I… my mind wasn't quite right, mainly because I didn't rest well yesterday!" Huo Zhenghao was now explaining rapidly.

But who on the scene would listen to Huo Zhenghao?

They were entirely convinced that what Huo Zhenghao had just said was very possibly true.

Who would casually joke about that kind of thing? Besides, if it really got out, it would be an incredibly explosive piece of business news—enough to shake the entire business world!

After hearing Huo Zhenghao's desperate excuses, Jiang Muye chuckled softly.

Huo Zhenghao had really hoisted himself with his own petard. Now there was no escape for him.

The troubles Huo Zhenghao would attract going forward would be endless—he might even be hounded for debt.

Jiang Muye was delighted to see it.

After all, whoever bullied him, he'd make sure they died.

Especially since Huo Zhenghao was the mastermind behind it all—he would never let Huo Zhenghao off.

Jiang Muye left the scene alone, distancing himself from this farce.

Huo Zhenghao watched helplessly as that slender figure departed. He wanted to struggle, but it was useless—his whole body sank deep into the water like drifting duckweed.

…

"I'm sorry, we've done all we could." The doctor's cold words rang in Yu Xi's ears. "You've lost your male function. I'm sorry."

Yu Xi's breathing caught in his throat. "Can't it be reattached? Why won't it work for me?!"

He could feel the emptiness down there.

Even wearing pants, it felt hollow.

That feeling of nonexistence left his heart utterly empty.

Suffocation.

Misery.

Agony.

Yu Xi was on the verge of collapse.

He, who had always been so proud, had now sunk completely to the bottom.

He questioned the doctor hysterically, but the doctor just shook his head and said, "It's too late. The window for reattachment has passed."

Although reattachment was possible in theory, the problem was that the doctor was one of the Leng Corporation's people.

It was impossible for him to help Yu Xi accomplish it, so he'd delayed the surgery time, and that was how the current situation had come about.
