Rebirth From The Ashes Chapter 332 - Smashed the TV

Chapter 332: Smashed the TV

Song Wenye was so confident and eloquent when she advised Shen Xi as if she was a master of love. “I’m 100% certain that he likes you. Anyway, you can’t confess first. You should wait for him to confess to you. In a relations.h.i.+p, the girl will be at a disadvantage if she confesses first.”

Shen Xi rolled her eyes at Song Wenye because she was talking like she had been in love before.

Song Wenye patted her chest. “Even though I don’t have any personal experience in this, I’ve seen a lot of romance shows and read romance novels, so you should listen to me.”

Shen Xi did not say anything.

Pei Xu came over and sat next to them. He smiled and asked, “What are you going to do with the money you earn?”

After the closing of “The Smiling Nation” tonight, they would collect their bet money. Thinking about the amount made them all excited.

This time, the Su family would not go bankrupt, but they would sustain a huge loss.

Song Wenye glanced at Yu Qiubai and signaled for Pei Xu to keep it a secret from Yu Qiubai. Although Yu Qiubai had a fallout with Su Mus.h.i.+, who knew when they would reconcile.

“You think he doesn’t know?” Pei Xu looked at her like she was a naive little girl.

Yu Qiubai was as cunning as a fox, so what would he not know about? He was fully aware that the International Cla.s.s had bets on the ratings of “The Smiling Nation”.

Shen Xi also nodded and said, “He might have even bet more than we did!”

“What are you guys saying about me?” Yu Qiubai carried a plate of grilled meat over and squinted his foxy eyes as he smiled. “It’s the finale of ‘The Smiling Nation’ today. I think the ratings can certainly be more than 30%, so the average rating will be more than 20%. I’d really like to see this amazing scriptwriter, Yun Qi.”

When he said the name “Yun Qi”, he enunciated it while his foxy eyes were fixated on Shen Xi.

Shen Xi cursed this d.a.m.ned fox in her heart and looked at him. “How much did you bet?”

“I was going to tell you about this!” Yu Qiubai sat down. “I didn’t bet much, only 10 million. After all, Su Mus.h.i.+ is my bro and I don’t wanna make it too awkward between us. This money can be considered as the International Cla.s.s’s bet.”

Shen Xi coldly swept him a glance. “Consider it ours? Then will you give us the winnings?”

She had guessed it right. Su Mus.h.i.+ being friends with Yu Qiubai was his bad luck. She even felt bad for that fool.

Yu Qiubai smiled ambiguously. “If you want it, I’ll give it to you. After all, it’s thanks to you that I won this bet.”

Shen Xi looked at his annoying expression and wanted to kick him for saying these obscure words.

Pei Xu’s eyes darkened. He somehow felt that there was a secret between them with their own inside joke. Yu Qiubai’s words definitely had a hidden meaning to them.

Song Wenye was like a protective mother bear and pulled Shen Xi behind her while she glared at Yu Qiubai. “Yu Qiubai! I’m warning you, you’d better not hit on my Xixi! She already has someone!”

Yu Qiubai raised his eyebrows and became more intrigued. He stretched his sentence. “Oh… really…? Who… is… it?”

Song Wenye looked fierce and yelled, “None of your business!”

Yu Qiubai was simply too annoying. His smile was so unpleasant and she really wanted to rip his face apart.

The Shen family home was very lively that night, but at the Su family home, Su Mus.h.i.+ was all alone.

Su Mus.h.i.+ sat on the sofa and was watching TV. The lights in the room were all turned off. Only the light of the TV shone on his gloomy and menacing face.

The TV was showing the last episode of “The Smiling Nation”.

News of this finale was on Weibo’s hot topics for the past two days. Today, the cast of “The Smiling Nation” stole the headlines all day and occupied most of the hot topics on social media.

The average viewers.h.i.+p of “The Smiling Nation” reached 19.5%, and the grand finale would definitely set a new high. Some speculated that the highest it could reach was 30%.

Time pa.s.sed by slowly.

Su Mus.h.i.+’s mood changed with time. He felt more aggravated and so much resentment, like the evil spirits from h.e.l.l.

An hour later, the finale of “The Smiling Nation” ended, and the end credits were playing.

Su Mus.h.i.+ suddenly stood up, took a chair next to him, and walked angrily towards the TV. He then raised the chair and viciously smashed the TV.

There was a loud crash.

The moment the TV shattered, there was a spark.

The surrounding lights and crystal chandelier overhead flashed twice before they blacked out because of the sudden short circuit. It was pitch black.

Su Ruowan had just gotten to the living room door, just in time to witness the scene in front of her. Her eyes flickered, and the next moment, she pretended to panic and rushed over with a worried cry. “Third Brother! What are you doing?”

The ratings of “The Smiling Nation” broke the record of Chinese TV dramas ratings in twenty years because of everyone’s support.

If only Su Mus.h.i.+ had taken the lead role in “The Smiling Nation”, he would be the hottest celebrity, not that He Pei!

Su Mus.h.i.+ glared viciously at the TV. The look in his eyes was hideous and twisted. He was in a mental breakdown and absorbed in a state of madness that he could not even hear someone shouting at him.

Su Ruowan rushed to him and pulled his arm. Her voice was a little hoa.r.s.e. “Third Brother, you’re bleeding.”

Su Mus.h.i.+ was extremely angry. Regret filled every cell of his body and he could not control his emotions. He shrugged his hand away and pushed Su Ruowan to the ground.

Su Ruowan fell with a painful m.u.f.fled grunt. A sharp pain was felt in her palm, and her eyes widened in disbelief. “Third Brother…”

Her brother was like a madman who had lost his mind. He did not even look at her and his eyes were crimson with anger as he smashed everything in sight.

There were loud noises of things being broken in the living room. Tables and chairs we smashed and porcelain shattered.

Su Ruowan endured the pain and ran over to him. She hugged him from behind and cried as she shouted, “Third Brother, don’t do this! I beg you, don’t do this… I’m Wanwan. Look at me, it’s me, Wanwan! Wake up!”

The vase in Su Mus.h.i.+’s hand shattered at his feet. Finally, a little reason returned to him. His voice was hoa.r.s.e. “Wanwan, am I useless?”

“No, Third Brother, you’re the best person in this world,” Su Ruowan cried softly but her gaze remained sinister. “Third Brother, you’re the strongest person in this world. You’ll always be my hero.”

‘Useless? Yes, you’re very useless! If you had your own mind, you wouldn’t have listened to everyone else and stuck to your opinion!’ Su Ruowan thought.

Su Mus.h.i.+ was chosen as the main actor for “The Smiling Nation” initially. If he had stuck to his idea and filmed this series, he would instead be the one who had gone viral.

The royalties from “The Smiling Nation” alone were enough for him to show off for life. He would be in the history of the Chinese entertainment industry and would be at the top of the mountain.
