Chapter 85

The previous world ended. After Xie Fuyi glanced at his departure, Ye Baixiao went crazy, indiscriminately attacking, and even killed Lu Shiyi.

Because one of the protagonists died, then the small world collapsed.

He didn’t even dare to look at his own unbearable score—didn’t matter anymore.

He thought, in the next world, the protagonist attacker should still be Ye Baixiao, right?

…

Xie Fuyi entered the new world in a daze, only to hear bursts of noisy fighting sounds coming from one side.

He paused, scanning around. This seemed like a rooftop. He was sitting on the edge, watching a group of eighteen or nineteen-year-old youths surrounding a boy and beating him up.

The first thought that came to Xie Fuyi’s mind was, school bullying?

He hated school bullies the most!

He quickly went through the outline of this world’s plot. It was a novel about a genuine and fake young master. The protagonist, Jiang Yu, grew up in poverty in the Jiang family since childhood. His father was addicted to gambling and disappeared without a trace, while his mother passed away early due to illness. Despite such circumstances, he worked and studied diligently, eventually excelling and gaining admission to A City’s best university.

However, he offended the third young master of the top-tier wealthy family, the Xie family, in school. Just when he was being bullied by them, he was rescued by the aloof school bully, Ye Chiyan. The two gradually developed mutual feelings.

Meanwhile, the third young master of the Xie family secretly loved Ye Chiyan, so he harbored resentment towards Jiang Yu. Using the Xie family’s influence, he schemed against and framed Jiang Yu at every opportunity, only to later discover that Jiang Yu was the true third young master of the Xie family.

Upon finding their real son, the Xie family felt remorseful for Jiang Yu’s eighteen years of suffering. They also discovered the malicious fake young master who had been scheming against him at every turn. In a fit of rage, they kicked him out, and he met his demise on the streets. Justice served.

And this fake young master who bullied the protagonist was the role Xie Fuyi was currently playing.

They were now freshmen, and their seating arrangements during class were not fixed. Today, Jiang Yu was sitting next to Ye Chiyan, naturally provoking the displeasure of the third young master Xie. After class, he had his followers bring Jiang Yu over to teach him a lesson.

Xie Fuyi found it strange. Wasn’t the protagonist attacker supposed to be Ye Baixiao?

He carefully reviewed the outline again and found two other important characters, the eldest young master Xie Tingbai and the second young master Xie Huaixiao.

These two brothers never liked their mischievous third brother, especially as he grew older and became more idle, preferring to spend his time with frivolous friends. So they usually ignored him.

Until the real young master was found, the two brothers were drawn to Jiang Yu’s resilience and self-improvement, gradually developing affection for him, and increasingly despising the fake brother who had occupied their real brother’s happy life for eighteen years and caused trouble.

In the end, the truth was revealed, and the two brothers adopted Jiang Yu as a non-biological sibling, and the four of them lived together.

Xie Fuyi let out a sigh. So, the protagonist attacker in this world is also split?

He snapped back to reality and looked at Jiang Yu, who was curled up on the ground from being beaten. He didn’t want to bully him like this either. He wondered why Ye Chiyan hadn’t come out to save him yet.

Ye Chiyan should be nearby on this small rooftop. Did he have to personally intervene as this malicious cannon fodder?

Thinking this, Xie Fuyi jumped off the ledge he was sitting on. With his hands in his pockets, he walked slowly towards the group. He kicked the butt of one of the boys in front of him impatiently and said, “Move aside.”

The third young master Xie had dyed his hair a dazzling gold, and he had a blue earring on his ear, clearly not a good student. However, his features were handsome, with bright black eyes and white teeth, making it difficult to dislike him even with his rude demeanor.

The followers who were just scolding people obediently made way for him.

“Third brother, this guy has some backbone. He didn’t even make a sound when kicked,” one of the followers said as they approached.

Xie Fuyi thought the protagonist must have backbone, considering what he’d gone through. But unfortunately, he was the malicious cannon fodder… Xie Fuyi apologized inwardly and then smirked. He looked down at Jiang Yu on the ground, his eyes filled with malicious amusement. “Backbone? I’d like to see just how much backbone he has.”

Even though he knew the other guy was a spoiled young master who bullied others, Jiang Yu still momentarily lost himself in Xie Fuyi’s face. The other stood tall and looked radiant. But the next moment, his expression turned cold and angry.

Because Xie Fuyi grabbed his collar and dragged him to the edge of the rooftop. With a malicious gleam in his eyes, he said, “Do you believe this young master can throw you down from here and no one will dare to collect your corpse?”

As he spoke, he pulled Jiang Yu towards the edge, leaving him hanging halfway off, supported only by Xie Fuyi’s grip.

Jiang Yu couldn’t help but tighten his grip on Xie Fuyi’s wrist, gritting his teeth. “Xie Fuyi! You lunatic! What did I ever do to you?”

His face bore some bruises, his clothes were covered in dust and footprints, but his eyes stared at Xie Fuyi with unwavering defiance.

Xie Fuyi paused for a moment, his expression momentarily unnatural, but quickly returned to his high and mighty malicious young master demeanor. “Just breathing the same air as this young master is already annoying enough for people like you, a poor wretch. Do you even deserve to be in the same school as me? You’d better drop out voluntarily, or else…”

He looked arrogant, then loosened his grip.

“Uh!” Jiang Yu’s heart leaped to his throat in an instant. He was afraid that if Xie Fuyi accidentally let go, despite his inner strength, he was still just an eighteen-year-old facing a life-threatening situation, and he couldn’t help but panic, his face turning pale.

But he had worked so hard to get into this school; how could he drop out voluntarily?

Jiang Yu’s eyes were bloodshot, filled with hatred towards Xie Fuyi. “I will never drop out! If you have the guts, just throw me down!”

His aggressive words made the people around them change their expressions. They knew that the third young master couldn’t stand being challenged, and he had always been lawless since childhood. What wouldn’t he dare to do? They were really worried that Xie Fuyi might throw him down in a fit of anger, but they didn’t dare to speak up, afraid of implicating themselves.

At this moment, Xie Fuyi hesitated—damn it? He was
