Rebirth from the Ashes

Chapter 437: Deliberately Made a Fool Out of Her!

It did not take too long for the fans to return to Su Ruowan, seeing the good in her. They should know who to choose between her and Song Wenye if they were not blind.

Su Ruowan was a saint in comparison to Song Wenye’s history of dirty laundry.

Chen Bingbing was the first to arrive. There was a sea of people. However, upon closer look, the excitement on her face froze as her eyes sighted the name on the banner – Song Wenye.

F*ck!

Song Wenye!

The people here deliberately came together to taunt and mock Su Ruowan!

Su Ruowan was just one step behind Chen Bingbing. She could already hear the commotion as she stepped out of the classroom. Drawing close, she caught sight of Song Wenye’s name and supporters excitedly putting up banners and posters for Song Wenye. The joy in her eyes was replaced by fury as she faced the classroom with malice.

Through the window, Su Ruowan could clearly see Yu Qiubai’s raised eyebrow and the taunt in his foxy eyes.

Friggin’ Yu Qiubai! He deliberately made a fool out of her!

This was no send-off for her! It was for that good-for-nothing, Song Wenye!

About to flip her top, Su Ruowan tried to pull herself together. No one should see her lose it.

Great!

Sure, these brutes did not have to like her, but were they trying to shove it to her and get her riled up by organizing a send-off for Song Wenye?

Noticing the color draining from Su Ruowan’s face, one of her girlfriends pulled her aside. “Let’s head back, Wanwan. There’s nothing to see here. They are fools.”

“It’s fine. We’re only here to see what’s the big hoo-ha about.” Su Ruowan let out a gentle smile before walking towards the banister to observe downstairs.

There was a crowd, several hundred at least, downstairs. Song Wenye’s name and picture were a thorn in her flesh and an eyesore.

These should have belonged to her. The fan club, the send-off, everything should be hers, not the good-for-nothing Song Wenye!

Yet now, these disgusting beings were ditching her to cheer for Song Wenye. They would regret it one day!

Just one floor below the Top Class was the International Class.

The commotion was stirred by the International Class students. Chu Ying and her classmates were downstairs managing the crowd.

Shen Xi listlessly leaned against the railing as she watched the bustling crowd below lifting banners and raising signs to cheer Song Wenye on.

She lost count of the people. It appeared many fans of the Su siblings turned on them after the last incident.

A short distance away, Pei Xu pushed through the mass in the corridors and handed Shen Xi a cup of bubble tea. He pointed above. “Su Ruowan is watching. Man, you should see the look on her face. She’s pissed.”

Had everything gone according to Su Ruowan’s plan with Song Wenye picking on her, sans the whole exposé, the people below would be supporting and cheering for Su Ruowan instead.

Shen Xi did not comment. Nevertheless, she lifted her chin and smirked at Su Ruowan.

Having caught a glimpse of Shen Xi, Su Ruowan saw red. If only she could get down there and rip Shen Xi and Song Wenye apart with her bare hands.

The fact she was shunned by No. 4 High School and had ended up in this situation was thanks to those two b*tches!

Did they think they had won? Did they think she was going to throw in the towel after the stunt they pulled?

Su Ruowan would never! One day, she would have her revenge!

As a loser, Song Wenye had no right to enjoy the cheers, support, and adoration from her fans. Su Ruowan was going to deliver Song Wenye a crushing defeat on the main stage of National Idol.

Despite Su Ruowan’s thoughts, hatred, and disdain, Song Wenye’s send-off went into full swing.

Song Wenye had never received such treatment. The people below, be it fans or not, were chanting her name – Song-Wen-Ye!

For a moment, the surreal euphoria gave her an illusion of being on cloud nine. The warmth she received nearly moved her to tears.

Was this the feeling of having a fanbase?

Was this how it felt like to be supported, loved, and in the center of attention?

It was not too shabby.

Shen Xi stood by Song Wenye, watching as the latter’s eyes welled up. Curling her lips in glee, Shen Xi stood up straight and walked away to leave Song Wenye to the hurrah.

The girl was taking in the love, support, and cheers from fans, and this was the greatest pleasure and achievement for an artist.

There was an uproar along the corridor, resonating the excitement below. Everyone roared in acclamation, “Song Wenye, you can do it!”

Shen Xi walked towards the loo. It was quiet around a kilometer heading towards the classrooms since the students gathered along the banister.

She was approaching the stairwell when suddenly, someone came in her way. She lifted her chin to meet a pair of smiley foxy eyes. Shen Xi calmly uttered, “Didn’t I return the ring to you?”

Yu Qiubai’s eyes reflected a hint of helplessness. Could she not take him for an enemy? He gazed at her. “Can we talk? Privately.”

He was sure he never did her wrong. Yu Qiubai did not aid and abet when Su Ruowan and Su Mushi picked on her. So, why the animosity?

Shen Xi was best pals with Pei Xu now, yet she refused to spare Yu Qiubai a word.

After heading to the stairwell, Shen Xi leisurely leaned against the railing. With an unapproachable presence, she darted a cold look at him.

Yu Qiubai cut to the chase. “Were you the one who treated Ning Sinian?”

Letting out a smirk, Shen Xi took off. “I have no idea what you’re talking about.”

She trusted no one knew about her providing medical care, including Fu Qingxuan. She never let the cat out of the bag, and Pei Xu was the only one who knew her real identity.

“Shen Xi!” Yu Qiubai felt defeated. He sighed and gazed at her without the usual mysterious glint in his eyes. “Do you really hate me so much?”

Shen Xi’s tone was flat. “No.”

“I beg you.” It came out of the blue. Letting up all his façade, Yu Qiubai earnestly stared at her. His voice was low and raspy, “I beg you, please help me.”

Stopping at her tracks, Shen Xi froze. It never crossed her mind that he would suddenly use this tone with her.

Truth be told, she did not hate him. Shen Xi simply did not want his company only because she disliked interacting with the conniving. It took a toll on her dealing with people like him as she had to be on constant guard against any possible mischief and scheming.
