Rebirth from the Ashes

Chapter 97 - Bet On It

“Don’t say that.” Su Ruowan softly helped out before embarrassedly explaining to Yu Yuanxi. “Yu Yuanxi, please don’t take it to heart. They mean no harm.”

The top class students put a name on the person but following Su Ruowan’s words, it validated that Yu Yuanxi was the subject of matter.

Yu Yuanxi appeared mild-mannered but his eyes spoke of indifference and distance. He nodded toward her without saying a word.

Despite appearing hurt by his attitude, Su Ruowan let out a gentle smile. “Yu Yuanxi, I believe that you will make it.”

“Thank you,” Yu Yuanxi replied.

“Keep it up.” Su Ruowan maintained a tender and kind front while being torn apart by humiliation and anger within.

Who did he think he was? How dare he put on airs in front of her! She would not have bothered to bestow him a glance had she not Shen Xi to win against.

Ha! If it belonged to Shen Xi – trash or not – Su Ruowan had to steal it all!

Yu Yuanxi was no exception. Su Ruowan must turn Yu Yuanxi against Shen Xi and in turn, have him approach, please, and attend to herself instead.

“Yu Yuanxi, what’s with the attitude?” Not having it, Chen Bingbing fiercely pointed at him. “It’s a blessing to have Wanwan talking to you.”

How dare he ignore Wanwan when she was talking to him! That was crossing the line!

“Bingbing, don’t be so.” Stopping Chen Bingbing from a full-blown attack mode, Su Ruowan sadly said, “I’m okay. Yu Yuanxi just doesn’t like to talk.”

“Wanwan, don’t stick up for him. What’s with the arrogance? He hasn’t gone into showbiz yet he acts like he’s a big shot.” Chen Bingbing was livid.

“Why be angry with these kinds of people?” Su Mushi, who had not said a word, finally opened his mouth to taunts and scoffs. “Well, he wants to act like a big shot but it’s still unclear whether it’s written in the stars.”

Su Mushi found Yu Yuanxi an eyesore the more the latter grew close to Shen Xi. Indeed, one was known by the company they kept!

The boy and Shen Xi, the brat, were birds of a feather flocking together!

Sitting beside Su Mushi, Yu Qiubai intriguingly took a glance at Shen Xi and commenced a countdown in his head.

Three.

Two.

One!

Shen Xi abruptly opened her eyes and offhandedly got up before speaking in an unhurried and cold tone. “What if he’s a hit?”

Yu Qiubai wickedly stared at her and smiled. He sure had the brains, having noticed Shen Xi would express a contrary opinion whenever Shi talked.

“Him? He won’t make it, or my surname isn’t Su.” Su Mushi turned ashen to see Shen Xi standing up for Yu Yuanxi. “And what if he doesn’t make it big?”

“Let’s bet on it.” The aloof Shen Xi had a commanding presence to her when she spoke. “If you lose, go eat shit.”

Su Mushi’s eyes were flaming in rage and face grimacing as he yelled, “Shen Xi!”

Amused by his exasperation, Shen Xi scoffed. “Oh my. Are you saying that the third eldest son of the Su family is angry because he is lacking confidence and a sore loser?”

Yu Qiubai observed the girl. Even while touching on Shi’s sore spots, Shen Xi remained cold and aloof as though no one was of importance.

The onlookers from the top class indignantly glared and looked daggers at Shen Xi. Oh, if looks could kill.

Having been struck a nerve, Su Mushi was burning in rage as he coldy smirked and grinded his teeth. “Fine, let’s bet on it! If you lose, you eat shit!”

Shen Xi, the d*mn brat, ridiculed him on purpose!
