The Net Force would be 2 N to the left.

21 N is being used to push the box to the right and 23 N is used to push it left. There is a stronger force pushing the box towards the left. The different in the two numbers would give you the net force acting on the box and the direction of the arrow with the greatest force will tell you the direction.
