Hi, I was bought a 14yr old S shape 名媛直播 Zanthoxylum for my borthday last november and its placed in a window with light but not direct sunlight. Its been doing well until i forgot to water it before christmas but i managed to resurrect it! Over the last few weeks its leaves have dried up and fallen off, i haven't changed what ive been doing. I submerge it once a week in water and drain and then spray it everyother day for humidity. I noticed the bugs on the photo on it and the branches seem dead dry. Has it had it? Can i bring it back? help!

Looks dead to me. Forgetting to water is not a good idea. Whatever the bugs are it matters not. You were not watering properly anyway, submerging is not good, Check the soil every day and water when almost dry. Learn from your mistakes and try again, but this plant is dead

That is twice its real age. I'm sure the price reflected that too.

Yep... turn to the left, turn to the right, first branch halfway above the first bend, pointing up, second branch... or: copy/paste from another mass-produced S-shaped plant.

Seems you are too late. This plant is so weakened that it is not likely that it will revive again.
FYI:
This is an 8 yo Xanthophyllum compared with yours:
