Chapter 380: Chapter 381: My Man, Who Dares to Take Him? (Part 5)
Truth be told, Wu Yi had not really taken Mu Ruyue seriously until he heard her speak—only then did he start to regard her with importance, a sinister gleam flickering at the bottom of his eyes.
No wonder Ye Wuchen fell for her; this woman was undoubtedly beautiful to the extreme. It seemed men all liked women with outstanding appearances. What other tactics could such women have besides their looks?
In terms of character and status, she was far inferior to Ruoying…
“We are speaking here, who allowed you to interrupt?” Wu Yi frowned slightly, “Don’t the people from the Alchemy Hall know any manners? Without the elder asking you, you have no right to speak. That is the rule of the Academy!”
Ye Wuchen and Zi Qianjing’s expressions darkened simultaneously, with towering rage surging in their hearts; however, before they could speak, a mocking laughter came from the woman beside them.
“Is that a rule of the Academy? Sorry, Elder Shen did not mention it to me, nor did he say that the elders of the Academy could dictate the disciples’ marriages and decide who must marry whom.”
How could Wu Yi not detect the sarcasm in Mu Ruyue’s words? His face suddenly changed, and he felt his own words were too harsh. Normally, he would never say such a thing, but thinking of his severely injured disciple, he couldn’t be more courteous to them.
“Insolent!” Wu Yi shouted coldly, “It is not your turn to speak now. I am asking Ye Wuchen a question—whether he is willing to marry my disciple or not! My disciple, in terms of character and Talent, is top-notch, and she is indeed a proud student of mine, Wu Yi. In what way is she not a match for you?”
Mu Ruyue looked at Wu Yi with a faint, elusive smile, “It seems my words were not clear enough, causing you to still not understand…”
The speech paused slightly, and she curled her lips, her eyes filled with a domineering aura as she looked down on him, “Now, I’d really like to see, who dares to snatch my man?”
My man, who dares to snatch—
What kind of domineering arrogance was this, to say such a dismissive remark?
Ye Wuchen watched Mu Ruyue with eyes full of laughter, his gaze imbued with deep affection. The tender light enveloped the girl’s body, as if, in his entire purple eyes, only her existence mattered…
No matter how many infatuated women appeared, she never bothered with them; truly, she had never taken those women seriously.
And now, this was the first time she declared, he was her man!
She would not let anyone touch her man!
Wu Yi’s expression darkened, anger blazing in his eyes, “Are all disciples from the Alchemy Hall so arrogant? I wonder how Shen Ran teaches you! The world has always revolved around the husband, and if your husband wants to divorce you and marry another woman, yet you cling shamelessly. Aren’t you afraid of being the laughingstock of the world?”
Ye Wuchen was surrounded by a somber aura, like a fearsome Shura from hell. Just as he was about to explode with fury, he saw Mu Ruyue pick up the bowl on the table and smash it fiercely towards Wu Yi.
Wu Yi was outraged, quickly raising his hand to swipe, and with a snap, the porcelain bowl shattered on the ground, the soup splattering onto his sleeve, fueling the fire in his heart.
Mu Ruyue nonchalantly raised her hand to wipe her fingers and glanced at him indifferently, “I don’t want to repeat myself. My man, in this life, belongs only to me, and whoever tries to snatch him, I don’t mind killing. Moreover, honestly, I don’t think Lin Ruoying is outstanding. In my eyes, she is just a nobody who can’t make it to the big stage.”
