Shen Xi's eyes flickered when she saw the dance costume had been torn apart by a huge hole.
The chief designer in charge of the backstage costumes was giving a good telling-off because of the torn dress, while the reproached young designer behaved as obsequious as a quail.
Everyone knew what really went on with the costume but they had to put on a show for a certain somebody.
"Ms. Shen, we're really sorry. We didn't keep a good eye on your outfit which resulted in this unfortunate incident." The designer insincerely apologized.
"Do you have some lace and rhinestones?" Shen Xi stared at the designer. "Bring me some."
The designer had no idea what she needed lace for but since it was mission plete on his part, he replied with a smile. "I'll get someone to bring you as much as you want."
Shen Xi replied, "Thank you."
The expression of gratitude rode on the designer's conscience. Nevertheless, it was out of his hands as he was just following orders.
Shen Xi had only herself to blame for snubbing those she should not have. 1
Show business was a dog-eat-dog world and no one could make it without thick skin.
In the hallway, a deliveryman held a bouquet of flowers in his hand and knocked on the door to the VIP room next door.
Su Mushi opened the door to flowers. "Who is it from?"
The delivery man answered, "Ms. Su Ruowan ordered the flowers."
After Su Mushi signed for it, he held the flowers and turned around. He asked with a smile. "Wanwan, what are these flowers for?"
Su Ruowan held Li Jingran's hand. "Mom, I heard that Shen Xi is peting too. I went out my way to order some flowers so you can present them to her when the curtain closes on the petition."
"That brat harmed you, yet you still care for her!" Su Mushi coldly scoffed and angrily dumped the flowers to the ground.
With downcast eyes, Su Ruowan put on a sad look and replied in a feeble voice, "But Brother, Mom, she will always a part of the Su family."
Observing that she was sad and down, Li Jingran hugged her and soothed her. "She's not, she's unworthy. Wanwan, listen to me. I only have you as a daughter."
Su Ruowan tearily pushed her away and replied in a raspy voice, "Mom, don't be like that. Go bring Shen Xi home. She's your biological daughter while I'm only the adopted daughter that was mistakenly swapped at birth."
Heartbroken by the ment, Su Mushi kneeled before Su Ruowan. "Wanwan, don't you know how much you mean to Mom, Dad, and me? Do I have to dig my heart out for you to believe that you're our sister and the only princess of the Su family!"
Li Jingran was tearful as her heart went out to Su Ruowan. "Silly girl, your words really drive a knife into my heart, do you know that?"
"Mom, Brother, I'm sorry. It's all my fault." Su Ruowan cried her eyes out. "I will never say such a thing again. I'm sorry to have hurt your feelings."
Li Jingran pulled Su Ruowan into her arms and pacified her.
Su Mushi forted her with a soft voice.
"Mom, I'm useless and my body let me down. I can't participate in the petition to bring home the trophy." Su Ruowan was down in the dumps.
Li Jingran gently patted her head. "What are you talking about? It's the greatest blessing to me if you're safe and in good health."
Su Mushi felt sorry. "Mom's right. You have already won a lot of awards, so you're not missing out on this. My biggest wish for you is to be happy."
Wanwan was out of the petition due to a broken leg, thanks to Shen Xi, that ruthless brat.. He would not let this matter slide.
