Rebirth from the Ashes Chapter 507 - Drop Out Due To A Broken Leg

Chapter 507 - Drop Out Due To A Broken Leg

By then, the mentors had a clearer picture of the situation following an update from the production crew. The pair were talking at the stairwell when they slipped and fell.
This was according to Su Ruowan. She suffered minor injuries as she managed to grab ahold of the railing after slipping two steps. The injury was only skin-deep without any internal injuries.
He Lu was in a bad state after falling off the whole flight of stairs. She broke her leg and was lying in bed whimpering away. With the mentors coming to pay her a visit, He Lu wailed even more devastatingly.
He Sumo and Fang Yao were closer to her than the other mentors were as they had been her direct mentor. Feeling sorry, they offered her words of consolation.
He Lu was a talented trainee who was always ranked in the top ten. She placed eighth at the last elimination round and was one step closer to getting into the top seven spots to make the debut.
It was true that He Lu was crying in sadness and despair. After working at it for so long, she failed to grasp the opportunity right in front of her.
With her leg broken, it was unlikely the production team was going to stop the shooting for the sole reason of her broken leg. It was plain to see that she had to drop out of the competition.
He Lu truly regretted coming up with her idea. Not only was her plan to pull one over Su Ruowan a bust, but she also paid the price for her actions.
She placed eighth in the last round and was only one seat away from debuting. She was going to eliminate Su Ruowan so the latter would withdraw from the competition, advancing her to seventh place and formally becoming one of the debuting members.
Today after their practice, she pretended to have questions about music to ask Su Ruowan and pulled her to the stairwell. He Lu had it all planned and intended to accidentally push Su Ruowan down the stairs.
To her dismay, He Lu was the one who fell while Su Ruowan grabbed onto the railing, saving her from any fatal injuries. She, on the other hand, broke her leg and was forced to drop out.
She was filled with regret and resentment for Su Ruowan. However, there was nothing she could say about it. Why was God favoring Su Ruowan and standing by her side!
"Feel better soon!" Fang Yao was at a loss and unable to find the right words to comfort He Lu.
The child was the most unfortunate. With two more episodes left on the show and her gaining popularity by placing eighth, she would be in the semi-finals and finals if this had not happened. Even if she was just about to make the debut, her ranking would have brought her quite the fame.
As the best talent show in the last few years, National Idol became all the rage nationwide. Missing the last two episodes would impact highly on her reputation.
He Sumo let out a sigh. There was no point in adding salt to injury when the girl was already upset about it. "Ms. Fang Yao's right. You're still young. There will be a lot more opportunities to come."
As her heart sank to the pit of her stomach, He Lu burst into tears. The extreme pain and distress choked her speech, not that she wanted to talk anyway.
"Lulu, I've failed you. I should have held onto you." Turning on the waterworks, Su Ruowan blamed herself and was visibly upset from her tear-stained face.
Humph!
Served her right!
He Lu was a godd*mn b*tch to try and drag her down the stairs. Did that b*tch think she would fall for her trap so easily?
Who was He Lu trying to fool? No one could outsmart the real master of manipulation.
The pitiful look on Su Ruowan's face pulled at the other mentors' heartstrings. All of them felt she was kind, sensible, and understanding.
This was an accident, to begin with, and Su Ruowan should not blame herself since she was not at fault. She even got hurt in the process yet here she was, tenderly comforting He Lu.
Su Muyan took a seat by Su Ruowan, looking a little unsettled. He took a glance at He Lu, who was on her bed, before hopelessly gazing at Su Ruowan.
He was furious and anxious when he had gotten the news. Wanwan was so kind, too kind that it pissed him off.
Su Muyan had warned her to stay away from He Lu but Su Ruowan did nothing of that sort. Instead, she repaid He Lu's evil deeds with kindness and remained close to He Lu. Thank goodness nothing major happened to Su Ruowan. God was watching over her.
He Lu had it coming and shot herself in the foot. Now that her leg was broken, she could forget about continuing her journey on the show. Dropping out of the competition was her only choice.
Shen Xi stood at a corner and observed the scene unfold. It never occurred to her that Su Ruowan would one day be the victim of a scheme. Shen Xi wondered if Su Ruowan was ever reminded of the time when Su Ruowan framed her.
Nevertheless, He Lu was a disappointment. She could have gone all out and pushed Su Ruowan down, and if the latter held onto the railing, He Lu should have dragged her down with her.
Now He Lu ended up with double the losses – the plan was futile and she became a victim too.
"Ms. Fang Yao." He Lu ceased crying. With swollen eyes, she looked at Fang Yao pleadingly and said, "I want to go on with the show. Please, let me continue!"
She was relentless and refused to admit defeat. He Lu was not going to give Su Ruowan the satisfaction to debut front and center while she had to withdraw from the competition in shame.
Caught in a dilemma, Fang Ye frowned and looked towards Gu Yang for advice. How was she going to participate in the show with a broken leg? Any regular person would drop out of the running as nothing was more important than health.
Gu Yang was unable to call the shots as he was a mentor and not part of the production team. He had to get an opinion from the production team and let the director decide her fate. Before Gu Yang could say anything, someone jumped into the conversation. It was Mr. Xixi.
Shen Xi gazed at Gu Yang. "She can use a wheelchair."
Color drained from Su Ruowan's complexion. Her hands gripped tightly against the bedding as fury and resentment washed over her.
Go on with the show?
He Lu, that b*tch, attempted to harm her but it backfired on her. She got what was coming and should go to hell. Why should she continue with the competition?
Had it not been for the lack of concrete proof and eyewitnesses of He Lu's aggravated assault, Su Ruowan would never have let He Lu get away with it.
She escaped nearly unscathed while He Lu broke her leg and was going to drop out. It was supposed to be a happy ending, but Mr. Xixi had to swoop in and get involved.
Feeling hostile towards He Lu, Su Muyan was quick to refute. "Ms. He Lu's injuries are quite bad. She should take a rest."
The wicked woman was brazen and shameless to want to continue with the show after hurting Wanwan. Well, he would never give her the chance!
He Lu could forget about ever going into showbiz. Su Muyan would do everything in his power to shut her out and corner her. He would not stop until she paid the price for what she did today.
Just then, Su Botao rushed over after hearing the news.. The production team would be the ones with a headache when the trainees met with an accident at a sensitive time like this.
