Rebirth from the Ashes

“Mushi, I’ll go apologize to Shen Xi.” Su Ruowan swiftly made up her mind.

She knew more than anyone else that it would just work against their favor at this rate. Stopping here would earn her more sympathy and get more people on her side.

“Wanwan.” Su Mushi had enough of Shen Xi and equipped with a chance, he really wanted to kill her in order to let all of that hatred go.

Outraged, the onlooking top-class students glared at Shen Xi. Who did she think she was, making Goddess Wanwan apologize to her?

A disgusting thing like her was not worthy of an apology from Goddess Wanwan. Shen Xi should be cursed and drop dead on the spot!

Su Ruowan darted an aggrieved and meek stare at Su Mushi before straightening her back, trying to be strong as she took firm strides towards Shen Xi. “Shen Xi, I’m sorry. It’s all my fault. Don’t blame Mushi. You know how he is. He only did what he did because of me.”

“You guys make a big deal out of something small.” Unfazed, Shen Xi coldly sneered. “How could I possibly splash you with water?”

Heaving relief, Su Ruowan took quite an effort to curl her lips and appear rather pleasantly surprised. “Shen Xi, are you saying that you forgive me?”

Shen Xi indifferently swept her a glance and abruptly drew close to whisper in her ear. “It’s not going to be water if it were me.”

“Shen Xi?” Su Ruowan pitifully gazed back at her in a daze. Confused, she threw a question, “What are you talking about?”

Shen Xi approached her with a friendly smile and said something before retreating. She then coldly blurted, “I’m not going to stoop to your level since I’m always bighearted. You should go.”

Su Ruowan turned gray-faced and froze as though spooked. Her innocent and naïve eyes widened in disbelief.

“I guess you’re overjoyed.” Shen Xi diabolically glanced at Su Ruowan and then the teacher. “Teacher, if nothing’s the matter, we should go on our own way.”

The Su siblings came looking for trouble but Shen Xi decided to let it pass, reaching reconciliation for all parties concerned. With everyone happy with the result, the crowd of onlookers broke up.

“What did you say to Su Ruowan?” Itching with curiosity, Song Wenye pursued the matter with Shen Xi. “The grim expression on her face made her look like a dead person.”

“I told her.” Shen Xi turned around and flashed a smile at Song Wenye before leaning against her ear to satisfy her curiosity.

Dumbstruck for a moment, Song Wenye gave her the thumbs up. Amazing. Just pure genius! It was no wonder Su Ruowan’s face turned as white as a ghost and her mind unhinged.

Su Mushi released his anger by smashing everything in the room. After breaking the last smashable item in the room, he went out of his room and knocked on the door to Su Ruowan’s room.

No one responded after several knocks.

Worried, Su Mushi quickly took out a spare room card to open the door and was welcomed by Su Ruowan looking completely out of it on the sofa.

D*mn Shen Xi! She was to blame for all of this. Wanwan would have not suffered such grievance had it not for her!

“Wanwan.” Su Mushi walked up and cried multiple times.

“Mushi.” With swollen eyes, Su Ruowan fragilely smiled at him. “Don’t be so rash next time. I feel bad for accusing Shen Xi wrongly.”

“Got it.” Su Mushi may say so but rage was swallowing him from inside. He wanted to squash that brat the next chance he got. “Don’t entertain needless thoughts. She’s not worth your concern.”

Wanwan was too kind, so kind that he wished that she was better than that. A personality like hers would only subject Su Ruowan to be a victim of abuse.

With downcast eyes, Su Ruowan kept to herself but deep within her eyes, brewed bubbling maliciousness.

Shen Xi, that d*mn b*tch! How dare she threaten her!

Shen Xi’s voice lingered and echoed in her ear, sapping the life out of her.
