Rebirth from the Ashes Chapter 194 - A Personal Welcome

Chapter 194: A Personal Welcome

“Young Master Gu, please step aside.” Shen Xi lifted her chin to reveal the bloodthirst in her eyes.
Quacking in his boots, Gu Xiaohan was reminded of his defenselessness in the face of her punches. He tried to get his act together and get back on his high horse. “Insensible pr*ck. Apologize to Wanwan.”
Shen Xi curled her lips. “Young Master Gu, what are you talking about? Why can’t I understand a word you’re saying?”
“I said, apologize to Wanwan.” Gu Xiaohan gritted his teeth while sparks were flying in his eyes.
“What if I refuse?” Shen Xi smiled brightly, but her eyes were cold as ice. There was a hint of a warning in her drawn-out tone.
She was not bothered to deal with them but since they were yelping at her like mad dogs, Shen Xi was going to give it to them.
Su Ruowan showed sadness and hurt in her face, but deep down, she was sneering.
Shen Xi, the b*tch could be a stuck-up all she wants, but surely, she would not make a peep in front of Han.
Su Ruowan knew that the b*tch had the hots for Han since moving into the Su residence.
However, it was not as though Shen Xi could do anything about it. Han did not like her and only had eyes for Su Ruowan!
Gu Xiaohan lost all rationale, he snapped and grabbed Shen Xi.
Shen Xi was just about to jump away.
It never occurred to her that Gu Xiaohan was quickly subdued.
A man’s slender fingers seized Gu Xiaohan’s arm from the assault. Narrowing his foxy eyes, the man jokingly yet menacingly gave a warning. “Young Master Gu, are you trying to fight evil at my doorstep?”
Frowning, Shen Xi ignored everyone else and tipped Wei Feng the wink before turning to leave.
“Ms. Shen, please hold on.” Situ Zhangyou had let go of Gu Xiaohan and caught up to Shen Xi to sincerely apologize. “Grandpa told me to come and meet you. I didn’t know you were here already. I’m really sorry for the trouble you went through.”
Shen Xi was speechless.
The onlooking guests were stupefied. Did Young Master Situ just apologize and personally welcome her?
Who was Situ Zhangyou? He was the eldest grandson of the Situ family and the future head of the Situ household. Born with a silver spoon, Situ Zhangyou would not grovel to anyone except the elders of the Situ family.
Who was the girl across the room?
It never crossed Gu Xiaohan’s mind that Situ Zhangyou would stick up for Shen Xi. Gu Xiaohan knew better than to go head-to-head with Situ Zhangyou as he realized he had reached his limit. Instead, he held in his boiling rage and gave Shen Xi the death stare.
D*mn brat! How did she befriend the Situ family?
As jealousy burned away all of Su Ruowan’s sense of reason, she clenched her fists tightly without realizing her nails were digging into her palms.
So, the b*tch managed to score Situ Zhangyou?
Su Ruowan could not think of other reasons why Shen Xi was here.
“Ms. Shen, please come in.” Situ Zhangyou led the way as he explained, “I heard that you have a meeting with Grandpa, so I specifically asked Grandpa if I could greet you. I never thought that we’d miss each other. Nevertheless, it’s all my fault. Please accept my apologies.”
“I don’t mind, Young Master Situ.” Shen Xi smiled politely at the man but the gesture was only limited to her lips. She took the gift from Wei Feng. “This is a present for Old Master Situ. Young Master Situ, please present it to him on my behalf.”
The Situ family looked down on her.
Why would she consider a partnership with them?
After all, Shen Xi had plenty of pharmaceutical formulas in her possession and quite a pool of potential partners to choose from.
