Rebirth from the Ashes

Chapter 51: A Plan

Was Situ Zhangyou out of his mind?

Why would he present flowers to Shen Xi, that little b*tch!

Having been caught off guard by the turn of events, Li Jingran darted an inquisitive look at Shen Xi.

Since when did she know Zhangyou?

It seemed Li Jingran had underestimated her!

Shen Xi just made her way off the stage.

Song Wenye bolted over with sparkling eyes. “Xixi, Xixi, you’re so awesome. Since when were you acquainted with my Youyou?”

Shen Xi fell into contemplation. “Situ Zhangyou?”

Song Wenye replied, “Who else other than my Youyou? Quick, get an autograph for me, will you?”

Shen Xi answered, “I don’t know him.”

Song Wenye curled her lip. “You liar. Why would he give you flowers if you don’t know him? Don’t you know that my Youyou is standoffish? He’s never been seen giving anyone flowers.”

Shen Xi responded, “How many people do you take a fancy to? What about that boyfriend you’re in love with today?”

Speaking of which, Song Wenye turned displeased. “I took some people with me to look around the entire TV station but the search came out empty. He might be some god descending upon earth for a visit and left after meeting me.”

Shen Xi turned up her nose. “I won’t do it. Go yourself if you want it.”

Song Wenye got on her knees. “I’m begging you. Don’t you know that I can’t look him in the eye? My heart will stop and I’d pass out overwhelmed with emotions if my Youyou took one look at me.”

Shen Xi could not identify with these girls who idolized celebrities. Nevertheless, she took into consideration the fact that Song Wenye helped out today. “Wait here.”

Song Wenye made a heart with her hands before urging her. “Love you, love you. Now, make haste.”

…

The missing Su Muyan was finally found tied up and tossed in the corner of the broom closet at the end of the hallway. He had sustained a head injury.

Heartbroken, Li Jingran stared at her son. “Did you see the perpetrator? What does the person look like?”

Tears rained down Su Ruowan’s face. “Muyan, you must be hurting. If only I can replace the pain you’re feeling.”

Su Mushi’s eyes flickered in gloominess.

Muyan was hurt, locked up, and now hemming and hawing. He brought up to Su Mushi that he was going to look for Shen Xi.

It was clearly Shen Xi, that brat’s doing. Others may have not witnessed the savage side of Shen Xi but Su Mushi had. Her eyes were like those of a wolf, ready to eat one up.

“Mom, I’m fine.” It was hard for Su Muyan to admit that he was beat up by Shen Xi since it was quite embarrassing. Instead, he wiped away Su Ruowan’s tears in an act of reassurance. “Don’t cry, Wanwan. I’m okay. My heart breaks when you cry. Please don’t cry, alright?”

“Muyan, why aren’t I the one injured? I’d rather take the hurt and pain for you.” Su Ruowan’s voice was hoarse from the distressed sobbing.

“I know you’re worried for me. I promise you that I won’t get hurt again and cause you distress.” Su Muyan softly offered words of console and assurance.

Shen Xi, that brat, sure was wicked.

She even tried to compete with Wanwan. This sort of vicious little b*tch has nothing on Wanwan.

While Li Jingran and Su Ruowan were away, Su Mushi forthrightly shot away. “Muyan, your injury was caused by that brat Shen Xi, right?”

A chilling murderous intent was clearly written in Su Muyan’s eyes. Now that Wanwan and Mom were gone, there was no holding back his true feelings. “I’m not going to let her off the hook.”

Seeing red, Su Mushi turned to leave. “Muyan, I’m going to avenge you.”

Su Muyan called him back. “Don’t act on impulse. We need a plan.”

Su Mushi wanted to have none of that. Shen Xi, that brat went against their family in every way, such as hurting Wanwan’s feelings and injuring Muyan. Killing her would not be enough to put out the hatred within.

With the door swinging open, Su Ruowan emerged pale with tears streaked across her face as she stared at Su Mushi. “Mushi, is what you’re saying true? Why would Shen Xi do that to Muyan?”
