Rebirth from the Ashes

Su Yi had already known that Su Ruowan was bad news. Ever since she crawled into his bed, Su Yi knew that she was nothing like the innocent and kind façade she put up. His biological daughter, Shen Xi, was driven away through Su Ruowan’s elaborate schemes.

However, he could not believe that she would twist the knife. Was she kicking them aside because the Su family was no longer of use to her?

Su Ruowan’s actions took the Su brothers by surprise. Beyond shocked, they exchanged glances and saw the burning anger in each other’s eyes.

So this was the true face of the sister they so dotingly raised. She was a repulsive and disgusting b*tch. Su Ruowan had chosen to betray them and stab them in the back while they were struggling.

Su Ruowan’s Weibo post was a bigger blow to them than the bankruptcy. The Su family was dying to question Su Ruowan right in her face for doing so.

“Say something, honey. Say something!” With tears rolling down her face, Li Jingran gazed at him in devastation and spoke in a hoarse voice.

Wanwan stayed up all night, speaking to Li Jingran on the phone about the situation at home. How could she cast them aside at a time like this?

“This is the good daughter you raised.” Clenching his teeth, Su Yi grimacingly looked at Li Jingran. “This is the good daughter you raised. You chased away our own daughter for her and this is the gratitude you’re being repaid with.”

Hot with emotions, Su Yi grew furious and hysterical that he screamed at the top of his lungs. His eyes turned bloodshot. If Su Ruowan was in front of him right now, he would rip her apart with his bare hands.

“Honey.” Li Jingran cried her heart out as grief ate her up inside. Soon, she passed out.

Reacting indifferent to his mom falling unconscious, Su Mushi whipped out his phone and called Su Ruowan. Nevertheless, he could not get through to her. Anger took over as he smashed and broke his phone. Su Mushi then turned to Su Yi. “Dad, I’ll go and meet her.”

How could Su Ruowan do such a thing? He needed to find her and get to the bottom of why she did what she did. Why was she doing this? What did they ever do to her?

“We have a more pressing matter at hand. Let’s get to Shen Xi first.” Su Yi kept a level head. He had his guard up against Su Ruowan since the bed-climbing incident, so he was not blindsided by her doing like the rest of them.

They had to reset their priorities and their prime concern right now was not to seek Su Ruowan for revenge but to save the Su family. As long as Su Yi was around, he would not allow the Su family to fall into financial ruins by every means necessary.

Revenge was a dish best served cold. He would be going after Su Ruowan the moment the Su family got back on their feet. The b*tch was asking for it by stirring the pot at such a crucial time, so she best watched her back for what was coming.

Su Mushi nodded. With ruthlessness written all over his face, he balled his fists. He simply could not wrap his head around Su Ruowan’s actions. What good would it do her? Was she not afraid of public criticism?

The Su family raised her with love and her behavior was nothing short of ungrateful. Like them, things would not go well for her.

Su Ruowan’s reveal of her being egged on to plagiarize and not the birth daughter of the Su family stirred a sensation within showbiz. The public could not get enough of one bombshell after another. The media was having a field day.

The Su family was much talked about in all major websites and forums as the public put them on blast, calling for them to get out of showbiz and die for their sins.

The production crew of Lady Luck was stunned by Su Ruowan’s announcement. It was plain to see that Su Ruowan was turning her back on the Su family in a bid to disassociate herself from them.

Her post on Weibo might be short, but she removed herself completely from the Su family’s scandal. She was clearly demonstrating her ignorance toward Su Yi and Li Jingran’s evil deeds. As for the netizens’ claim about a family of the same blood having the same moral standing, she clarified that it was not the case with her since she was not the Su family’s biological daughter.

With fear in her eyes and chills running down her spine, Lin Chan looked at Su Ruowan as though she was a monster. Everyone in the entertainment business knew how much Li Jingran loved Su Ruowan. Li Jingran gave Su Ruowan nothing but the best and would bring her along to every event. Li Jingran showered Su Ruowan with love.

However, Su Ruowan bit the hand that fed her by delivering the fatal blow to the Su family while they were in crisis. It was a dirty move. Even Lin Chan, who was not a fan of Li Jingran and had been looking forward to her bad break, thought it was heartbreaking and began to pity Li Jingran. Although Li Jingran had it coming and deserved no sympathy, Su Ruowan was pure evil.

Lin Chan found it scary to be on the same set as Su Ruowan, afraid she might be stabbed in the back during an unsuspecting moment. If Su Ruowan could betray the family who raised her, what else was she not capable of?

Looking apprehensive, the other members of the production team did not want to talk to Su Ruowan. It was hard to like someone like her.

It never crossed Hu Zheng’s mind that Su Ruowan would do such a thing. The first thought he had was that Su Ruowan had gone mad. What good would it do to her for adding fuel to fire?

Hu Zheng finally understood when he saw the extreme netizens, who hated the Su family, showing Su Ruowan support for ditching the Su family.

Su Ruowan was turning the tide by cutting ties with the Su family. She paid internet shills and boosted the post as she painted a principled, conscientious, and upstanding image of herself that would not stand by the Su family just because they were family. It was a good move.

At present, the public was brainwashed to think her betrayal was the Su family’s karma. The Su family did not deserve any pity and Su Ruowan did the right thing. Everyone should be impartial like her.

Taking a glance at Su Ruowan, Hu Zheng shuddered as a chilling sensation crawled under his skin. He wondered what was on Screenwriter Cloud Seven’s mind. Did she intend to keep Su Ruowan?

Others might not know about it, but he was aware that Screenwriter Cloud Seven was Ms. Cai Ni. Ms. Cai Ni did not care for Li Jingran. Many people in showbiz were familiar with the incident where Li Jingran was knocked unconscious by rage on the red carpet.. He believed Screenwriter Cloud Seven would not let Su Ruowan stick around.
