Frankly, Su Ruowan was not a pretty girl. Although her heart-shaped face was the size of a palm, her features were not exactly attractive. Her brows were too thick; Her eyes were not big; Her nose was a bit flat and her lips were thin. 

Nevertheless, she was good at makeup and the result was similar to that of plastic surgery. It covered all of the flaws on her face and it made her look beautiful.

Su Ruowan's leg was wrapped in a plaster cast and she was sitting in a wheelchair. When she heard her reply, her gaze hardened for one fleeting moment. Then, it softened and she looked at Shen Xi meekly, "Little Sis, what are you talking about?"

Instead of engaging in the conversation, Shen Xi grabbed Su Ruowan's arm and hauled her up from the wheelchair. She gave the latter a tight slap on her face, then shoved her away with a kick. 

It was all carried out perfectly in one swift movement.

A horrified Su Ruowan screamed. She had already landed on the floor and placed a hand on her stomach. Her organs hurt terribly and she cried, "Little Sis, why did you do that to me?" 

Shen Xi grinned. "I'm off. I bet you're the happiest one here, you can be the heiress of the Su family in peace. Since you are rejoicing, do you want me to help celebrate by lighting a few firecrackers?" 

The Su family glared at her in resentment while they surrounded Su Ruowan anxiously, coaxing and consoling her.

"Shen Xi, I'll kill you!" Su Muyan's eyes were red with fury.

Shen Xi threw him a sideways glance, raised the whip in her hand and warned, "Don't anger me, or else I'll expose every single one of you b*stards! I'll tell everyone that Su Ruowan's debut in the central role has been planned from the very beginning!" 

Su Muyan stopped in his tracks. He gritted his teeth exasperatedly as he watched her maniacal laugh, her domineering stance, and her savage stare.

He would not let this vile c*nt Shen Xi off the hook!

For certain, he would make her pay for what she did today!

Shen Xi had just approached the doorstep when a handsome young man ran towards her, bearing a stern expression on his face. 

Perfect!

It was Su Ruowan's fiancé, Gu Xiaohan!

Her enemies had all arrived!

Gu Xiaohan was rather good-looking and had a snobbish, arrogant personality. When he realized it was Shen Xi, he raised a hand to slap her. "Shen Xi, you b*tch, how dare you bully Wanwan!"

Shen Xi's reaction was quicker than his. She delivered a slap on his face and kicked him in the stomach.

The force sent Gu Xiaohan two meters away from her. He landed at the doorstep with a loud thud.

Meanwhile, on the opposite side of the road.

A car zoomed towards the entrance at an incredible speed, as if the driver had lost control of it. The car was directed at Gu Xiaohan, who was still lying on the floor.

Gu Xiaohan's eyes widened in alarm, and he could not bring himself to scream. He watched as the car sped towards him.

A sharp, piercing sound could be heard.

The car braked suddenly and stopped as soon as it was about to hit Gu Xiaohan. Obviously, the driver was skilled at maneuvering the car. 

Gu Xiaohan had been scared senseless by this incident and flopped onto the ground.

Shen Xi pointed at Gu Xiaohan and laughed hysterically.

The car window was rolled down, partially revealing the charming face of a man. He turned his head slightly to regard Shen Xi, who was standing at the entrance and looked a mess. His voice was deep and hypnotic as he spoke, "Where are you headed? I'll give you a ride."

Shen Xi caught a glimpse of the driver and her eyes lit up with glee. She got into the car calmly and sat on the passenger seat. "To Golden Sea Bay."

Everybody was somebody's precious baby, and she was no exception. She wanted to find her adoptive parents, Madam Yun from her home and Old Shen, the people who loved her most in this world.

"Alright." The man nodded. Without asking further questions, he drove away.
