Tong Yu had already gone to bed, but he was woken up by a call from his colleague in the marketing department. It was because Huo Yao was trending again.
Huo Yao seemed to be picking up his girlfriend?
Pfft!
Tong Yu shook his head speechlessly before he said, "Stop causing trouble. Just stay in the car."
Tong Yu pushed the door open and got out of the car.
He stood by the car with his hands in his pockets and waited.
Lu Xia walked out of the school and looked around to see where the Lu family's car was parked. Before long, she spotted Tong Yu standing by the roadside.
Lu Xia found him familiar at first, but her eyes widened when she thought about it. He was Huo Xiang's agent. She had met him twice before.
He was obviously waiting for someone. Was he waiting for her?
Lu Xia looked excited. She ran her fingers through her hair before she walked over to Tong Yu unhurriedly.
"Hi, you must be my brother's agent, Mr. Tong." Lu Xia greeted him with a smile.
Tong Yu had noticed Lu Xia walking over from afar, but he had no idea who she was. He finally realized who she was when he heard her voice. He straightened his body and nodded politely. "Hi."
Lu Xia glanced at the car behind him. She had not expected Huo Xiang to be inside. She veered her eyes away and looked at Tong Yu. "Mr. Tong, Brother Xiang..."
The moment she asked, Tong Yu pointed at the car. "Your fourth older brother is in the car. Are you looking for him?"
Lu Xia was momentarily stunned. Judging from the way he asked, "Are you looking for him?" She could tell that Tong Yu was not looking for her.
Since he was not looking for her, he must be looking for... Huo Yao.
Lu Xia recalled the number she had blocked and nearly frowned. The gears in her head spun before she nodded. Before Tong Yu could say anything, she walked over and raised her hand to knock on the car window.
Huo Xiang, who had seen Lu Xia in the car, had a cold expression on his face. Very quickly, he pressed the button to lower the car window. Only her eyes and forehead could be seen before he let go.
"What's the matter?" His voice sounded cold and heavy.
Lu Xia clenched her fists so tightly that her nails dug into her flesh, but she did not feel any pain. She pursed her lips. Her face was pale and haggard to begin with, so she forced a smile, which made her look pitiful.
"Brother Xiang, I called you this afternoon, but you couldn't get through. Are you busy?" Lu Xia bit her lips and asked softly.
Tong Yu, who was standing by the side and did not want to eavesdrop on their conversation, could not help looking at Huo Xiang suspiciously.
If he remembered correctly, his phone had only rung once in the afternoon. At that time, he had asked him who was looking for him, and he had replied that it was a scammer.
"Yes, I'm very busy." Huo Xiang was not moved by his foster sister's pitiful demeanor. He had long seen through her tendency to act pitiful.
I don't want to pander.
Lu Xia's face turned paler. She was irritated by the man's indifferent attitude.
"Fourth Brother, are you still angry at me for what I did before?" Lu Xia swallowed her pride and said, "I'm sorry. I was young back then, so I didn't think about the consequences."
Huo Xiang pursed his lips impatiently. "You don't have to call me Brother Xiang. We aren't related by blood. As for the past..." He chuckled before he continued. "It's pointless."
