Chapter 1344: The Consequences of Defeating a Love Rival

Momentarily stunned, Xu Zhenyu could not quite figure out what he meant.

However, Xu Zhenyu was no fool and he instantly thought of a possibility!

Actually, Xu Zhenyu had been feeling apprehensive about his excessively quick promotion, though he did not mull over it because most of his time in the Northwest Military Camp was occupied by training and missions. He had been putting in all of his efforts into them as well.

Besides, he thought that the Xu Family had a part to play since he was still a member of the family at the end of the day. He thought that Old Mr. Xu’s status had a great influence on his superiors, even though the Xu Family could not intervene with matters that were outside of Capital City.

However, he never expected that the matter would have something to do with his rival in love.

He was in complete disbelief and refused to come to terms with the truth either.

However, he was also convinced that Si Yiyan’s words were true.

He knew that Si Yiyan had the ability to do so.

Back when Wen Xinya got abducted, he wouldn’t have been duped by Si Yiyan if it weren’t because of the fact that his superiors demanded him to agree to give the abductors a helicopter.

Clearly, Si Yiyan had already cooperated with the military.

Moreover, Si Yiyan found out about the military drill so soon, even though the instructions had just been announced. Si Yiyan even brought it up so brazenly in front of him.

Clearly, not only was Si Yiyan on close terms with the military authorities, but he also had a wide network of connections and a strong influence on the military.

Xu Zhenyu was not surprised that someone like him would be able to control his future.

After all, the Xu Family was only powerful in Capital City and Xu Zhenyu was nothing but a small fry elsewhere.

Hence, he had been plotted against by Si Yiyan, right from the start. All of his pride and joy were given by Si Yiyan. Hence... he had been completely defeated by Si Yiyan, who left him with no means to retaliate.

Si Yiyan had trampled all over his pride and dignity.

“Who do you think you are? What rights do you have to intervene in my affairs and control my life? How dare you stand in front of me like a winner and brag about your victory. No matter how incompetent I may be, it has nothing to do with you. You’re just an arrogant and self-righteous scoundrel despicable beyond hope.”

The realization made Xu Zhenyu lose control of his anger and emotions. He rushed forward and grabbed Si Yiyan by the collar while raising his fist in a bid to punch Si Yiyan.

Si Yiyan stared at Xu Zhenyu and said calmly, “If I were you, I wouldn’t be acting so recklessly.”

It was no wonder that Xu Zhenyu would be infuriated, for Si Yiyan had indeed pulled some petty and inglorious tricks. However, Xu Zhenyu had forgotten that they were never on the same level playing ground. A fair and square competition wouldn’t work for the two of them.

Their duel was just a battle of wit.

Staring at the composed Si Yiyan, Xu Zhenyu could not bring himself to punch him.

Si Yiyan glanced at his fist and said nonchalantly, “I was actually planning to go see Xinya and I didn’t intend to meet you here, Colonel Xu. Our meeting today is purely by chance, though I don’t intend to let it affect my schedule either. If you were to hit me, do you think Xinya won’t be able to guess that you were the one who did it?”

Xu Zhenyu refused to confess his feelings to Wen Xinya, precisely because of the pride that he had painstakingly withheld. How was he supposed to face Wen Xinya in the future if she were to find out?

“You...” Xu Zhenyu clenched his fists tightly as his knuckles cracked loudly. However, he still had no choice but to put his fist down indignantly.

However, he refused to let go of Si Yiyan’s collar.

Si Yiyan nonchalantly placed his hand on Xu Zhenyu’s wrist and moved the latter’s arm away. However, it was a battle of strength between him and Xu Zhenyu. Clearly... Si Yiyan was the winner.

Xu Zhenyu retracted his hand and placed it by his side. “I’m warning you, you’d better stop meddling with my affairs from now on. Don’t make arrangements for me presumptuously too. Otherwise... I won’t let you off.”

It was at this moment that Xu Zhenyu finally realized how terrifying Si Yiyan was. He was no match for Si Yiyan at all.

Adjusting his messy collar, Si Yiyan said coldly, “There’ll only be one winner between us!”

Xu Zhenyu was speechless. Si Yiyan’s nonchalance reminded him of a truth—there was nothing he could do if he was not as scheming or shrewd as Si Yiyan.

Si Yiyan said coldly, “Xu Zhenyu, from the perspective of a man, I can’t deny that you’re really an outstanding man who possesses the charm to make any woman want to marry you. However... it’s a pity that you have me as your competitor.”

That’s why you have no choice but to admit defeat.

Wen Xinya was surrounded by too many outstanding men, like the ambitious Chu Jingnan and the glorious Zhong Rufeng, who was gentlemanly and impressive. There were also plenty of guys who admired Wen Xinya in university, most of whom were handsome and overachieving. However, he had never seen them as a threat.

Reason being, they were not fit to be a threat to him.

Xu Zhenyu was obviously not a simple man since he was fit to be Si Yiyan’s rival. He had never belittled Xu Zhenyu and knew that he had worked hard for his success, even though Si Yiyan had a part to play.

Xu Zhenyu sneered. “You’re rather self-conceited.”

Xu Zhenyu could guess that Si Yiyan had merely said those things to spite him, though he had indeed felt attacked.

Clearly not planning to continue talking to him, he moved his feet away. After taking two steps, he paused and turned around again. “On the account of Xinya, I’ll give you a warning. Unnecessary pride will do you more harm than good during inappropriate times. When you understand my words one day, you’ll understand why you lost. “
