Rebirth from the Ashes Chapter 59

Chapter 59 - Legs Broken

“The series is set to broadcast next month and there’ll be new episodes every week.” Pei Xu looked at the bunch of fools while tapping on the table. “Do you get what a weekly broadcast is? It’s like foreign TV shows where they shoot an episode and release it right away.”

The onlookers nodded their heads, reflecting their knowledge on this. It was not as though they were dimwits. Only in their country would TV series be shot in one go before releasing.

“Do you know who the male lead was first determined to be in that TV series?” Pei Xu kept everyone in suspense.

Song Wenye did not have the time of the day. “Pei Xu, are you a man? Can you just finish your sentence all at once and not be so long-winded?”

“What’s the rush? Haste makes waste, you know.” Pei Xu’s intention was to let Shen Xi know. “The script was given to Su Mushi as first priority but he turned it down.”

With that, he took a glance at his ice-queen of a deskmate who remained unfazed as she lost herself in mock test papers, as if she had no interest in whatever they were talking about.

Song Wenye was the first to slam the table and guffaw. “Dang, Su Mushi must be filled with regret right now.”

“Sure he might be regretful right now but I think that he’ll probably jump down the building out of anger once “The Smiling Nation” becomes a hit!” Lin Ge joined her in laughter.

“We’ll have to pray for the series to make a splash among men, women, the old, and young alike to follow the series; not to mention, for the male and female leads to rise to fame and make the A-list.” Song Wenye turned to Shen Xi. “Xixi, my nana will be going to the temple the following week to ask for blessing. We should go together to pray to Bodhisattva!”

Shen Xi shook her head. “I’m an atheist.”

Grinning, Song Wenye approached her and pulled the stops on her girly charm. “Come with us.”

Shen Xi faintly replied, “If I have the time.”

Feeling happy, Song Wenye continued with the questions. “Aren’t you glad to see Su Mushi like this?”

She had caught wind that Xixi was driven away by the Su family. Xixi had a difficult time during her stay with that family, having been tortured by them too.

Shen Xi answered, “Yes.”

She was overjoyed for sure. As the mastermind behind that ploy, of course she was over the moon.

Everything was working out perfectly according to her plan.

It still had not come to a point where Su Mushi was so regretful that he runs into the wall, pukes blood, or dies on the spot!

Shen Xi may say she was an atheist, but she went with Song Wenye and the rest to the temple to pray. This was mainly because Mom was happy to find her friend extending an invitation and insisted that Shen Xi went along.

Pei Xu did not join the party since he had a prior engagement, but Alpha Xu had two boys from the international class stay behind to protect them.

It never occurred to Shen Xi that she would bump into Su Mushi at the temple.

Su Mushi brought with him a group of guys to hold her up in the backyard. Ruthlessness reflected in his eyes. “Shen Xi, you owe Wanwan a leg. Today’s the day we return the favor!”

Without wasting a breath, Shen Xi charged towards them.

Aware that Shen Xi was not one to mess with, Su Mushi specifically selected over ten highly-skilled bodyguards to teach her a lesson she would never forget.

He had gotten to know that Shen Xi would be joining her classmates to burn incense and pay respects to Buddha at the temple. Hence, Su Mushi secretly tagged behind along with his men, seeking an opportunity to make a move.

However, as it turned out, he had underestimated Shen Xi.

In the space of a blink of an eye.

Ten burly chaps were beaten to a pulp by Shen Xi – some passed out while others had their legs broken. All their bodies were spread across the ground.

“Shen Xi, what are you trying to pull?” Fear overcame Su Mushi as Shen Xi grabbed an iron bar and headed towards him. “I’m your brother. Don’t ever think of returning to the Su family if you lay a finger on me!”

Shen Xi might keep to herself, but the taunt and murderous intent were apparent in her eyes. Lifting the bar in her hands, she aimed for Su Mushi’s legs before giving it a good bash.
