Rebirth from the Ashes Chapter 201 - Not Sulfuric Acid

Chapter 201: Not Sulfuric Acid

That bitch Shen Xi had the audacity to threaten her and as a result, Su Ruowan had to look over her shoulder every time she went to the bathroom.
Acid attack, huh?
Well, Su Ruowan wanted Shen Xi to have a taste of real acid.
Having picked up that someone entered the ladies, Gu Xiaohan’s expression turned somber and composed, a stark difference from the exaggerated barbaric look before. It was as though he was a different person.
Su Ruowan moved a stool over and stepped on it before retrieving the sulfuric acid she had been keeping in her purse since the day Shen Xi threatened her. Her eyes were filled with joy for she was about to deliver a payback.
She was doing this for the first time but because the subject in question was Shen Xi, Su Ruowan was not at all afraid, and was thrilled and delighted instead. She was about to pour the acid down.
At that very moment.
A figure suddenly bolted into the washroom.
Before Su Ruowan could take a good look of who it was, her hands shook as the stool was knocked over.
She fell onto the ground and experienced a moment of oblivion, unable to open her eyes due to the sharp pain.
Amid all the chaos, Su Ruowan thought the burning pain on her arm was the acid rotting into her flesh.
The person who stumbled over the stool was not in a better situation either. Su Ruowan could hear that it was a woman by her grunts in agony.
She resented the woman who pushed over the stool, saving Shen Xi, and hurting her in the process. By the time she regained her sense of sight, Su Ruowan managed to identify the person and gave a repulsive stare. “Yu An?”
So it was Yu An, the shameless woman who was delusional to want to steal Han from her!
Yu An held her collarbone while biting her teeth to endure the pain. Nevertheless, she still let out a groan as the pain was getting unbearable.
As he heard Su Ruowan calling out to Yu An, Gu Xiaohan’s expression turned cold, and with a self-deprecating smile, he pushed the door open.
The stool tumbled on the ground.
The two ladies were grimacing in pain, with bruises on their faces after taking the fall to the ground.
There was a transparent bottle by her feet with not much colorless liquid left in it.
Gu Xiaohan’s heart sank to find blood dripping from Yu An’s palm but he instantly shifted his gaze towards Su Ruowan. His face looked worried but his eyes reflected unusual calmness. “Wanwan, are you okay?”
“Han…” Su Ruowan started bawling without finishing her sentence.
Hiding the contempt in her eyes, Shen Xi approached Yu An, helped her up, and removed her hands that were clasping to her collarbone.
The skin around Yu An’s collarbone had an inch-long cut. It was a long and shallow cut that could not have been caused by sulfuric acid.
Shen Xi placed Yu An’s hands back on her collarbone before facing Su Ruowan with a cold look on her face. “What’s the meaning of this?”
Su Ruowan must have filled the bottle with sulfuric acid to splash her, yet it was not acid inside.
Weeping, Su Ruowan shuddered in fear while clinging onto Gu Xiaohan’s arm like a dying duck in a thunderstorm. “Han, I don’t know. I don’t know anything.”
Shen Xi pointed the transparent bottle not far away from them. “What is in there?”
Judging by Su Ruowan’s response, Shen Xi was certain that Su Ruowan had no idea the acid in the bottle was not acid anymore.
