Rebirth from the Ashes

The Su family shunned, outcasted, and drove Shen Xi away to protect Su Ruowan and her feelings. Yet, this was what they got in return. Su Ruowan was a heartless and ungrateful b*tch.

Su Ruowan panicked when she saw the brewing insanity and resentment in Su Mushi’s eyes. She knew that Su Mushi had completely lost it.

She tried to put up a fight, alas it was too late. She had trouble finding her breath as the suffocation was blurring her vision.

Su Ruowan struggled hard, yet she could not break free. With death drawing close, she widened her eyes and looked Su Mushi dead in the eye.

Su Mushi bellowed like a wild animal, laughing menacingly and crazily. He locked her in a death stare while mumbling, “I’ll kill you! I’ll kill you!”

Passing security personnel were in for a shock when they witnessed the scene. Someone ran up to them while another called for help. It took quite an effort to hold the delirious Su Mushi down.

Following the incident, the police soon arrived.

Having been restrained, Su Mushi fought to shake them off as he gave Su Ruowan a dirty look as she gradually regained consciousness. He looked like he wanted to eat her up alive.

Su Ruowan sat on the ground against a tree to take the edge off. She seemed to have hit her head during the struggle as blood spilled all over her face. Looking at the incoming police, she shivered in fear and wailed. “Officers, please help me. He’s trying to kill me. Lock him up and don’t let him out to hurt anyone anymore.”

A good-for-nothing like Su Mushi had the nerve to attack her and tried to kill her. The thought of what happened earlier drew her desire to destroy him.

Like a cornered vicious beat, Su Mushi squared up to Su Ruowan. With an ominous expression, he guffawed psychotically at her words. “Su Ruowan, you wicked b*tch! Was your conscience fed to the dogs? You’ll rot in hell! I’ll come back as a ghost and haunt you! Just you wait!”

The Su family made the mistake of raising this hard-hearted b*tch. Ironically, they loved her and spoiled her like a princess.

Su Mushi was filled with regrets, wishing he could turn back time. He should have smothered her to death before she grew up so she never had the chance to do evil and betray them.

The policemen looked at the pair. It was hard to tell what the man looked like as his face was bleeding from fingernail scratches. The woman was also covered in blood from bumping her head. They cuffed Su Mushi who had the intent to cause injury to prevent another distraught episode.

The relevant production crew members rushed over as well. Hu Zheng, the director, had a feeling something might happen but never thought it would escalate so quickly. Su Ruowan, nearly dying in the hands of Su Mushi, was answering the police’s questions.

The police lamented after learning the pair’s identity from Hu Zheng. The Su family’s scandal was such a big deal that the news spread to those who paid no attention to the entertainment industry. The whole family was bad news, and here they were, going at each other’s throats.

“You two should come to the police station. We’ll deal with the matter there.” The police officers gazed at the pair.

Su Ruowan shook her tear- and blood-stained face. “I’m not going. I’m the victim and he’s the killer. You should arrest him and lock him up.”

Su Mushi had settled down by then. Once the initial agitation and anger wilted, all that was left was bitter resentment. His mind had run countless scenarios of finishing Su Ruowan. He turned to the policemen and said, “Mr. Officer, she’s my sister. This is our family affair. We’ll handle it ourselves.”

He knew for a fact that Su Ruowan wanted him dead. To get him locked up was not the end goal. She had more tricks up her sleeve waiting for him.

Thus, he had to figure out a way to kill her before she struck.

“I’m not.” Su Ruowan denied. “I’m not related to their family whatsoever. Mr. Officer, I want to sue him for attempted murder. You have to stand up for me. He has lost his mind. He’ll kill me.”

“Officer, sir, she’s my sister. I love her the most and would never harm her. Why would I kill or hurt her? Don’t listen to one side of the story. We merely got into a small fight.” Su Mushi was not going to give Su Ruowan any more chances. His voice bore a strange glum as he turned to smile at her.

Su Ruowan was freaked out by the eerie smile. He looked like the devil crawling out from hell bearing a chilling grudge and resentment. She knew she had to resolve the matter immediately.

As long as Su Mushi and the Su family were alive on earth, she would have to look over her shoulder every second. By whatever means, she had to take care of the Su family once and for all before she could have peace of mind.

It was his word against hers and vice versa. Since there were no witnesses and the place was a blind spot from the surveillance, the police were unable to determine who was at fault. In the end, they took the pair to the police station.

Standing at the outer edge of the crowd, Shen Xi curled her lips and waved as Su Ruowan got into the police car.

Su Ruowan was left dumbstruck. Through the window, she could see the smug look on Shen Xi’s face. The latter was taunting and mocking her. She knew it.

Standing by Shen Xi was the handsome man that was said to be her boyfriend. With the man’s emotionless gaze falling on Su Ruowan, she was overtaken by shuddering fear.

For a moment, all the hatred and jealousy rushed through her veins and straight to her head. It felt as though her head was about to explode.

Shen Xi, that b*tch, was still on the set. Who was she to ridicule her? Did Shen Xi think the Su family would spare her for leaving them alone?

It was just a matter of time before Shen Xi had them coming to her. Su Ruowan expected the Su family to bite onto Shen Xi like a rabid dog. It was best if they fought to the bitter end which could result in mutual destruction.

Su Ruowan could then emerge as Shen Xi’s sister to claim her everything – her assets and man would be hers to keep.

Shen Xi did not deserve that fine man, nor was she worthy to wait on him. Only Su Ruowan would make the best partner to a man like that.. Su Ruowan would definitely get her man.
