It was understandable that Lu Xia was not close to her older brother, but if she was not close to her adoptive parents... that was a huge problem.
Brother Tian touched his nose tip.
What kind of celebrity had he signed on with?
Lu Xia composed herself and glanced at her manager before she stood up. "I'll give it a try. My adoptive parents used to be nice to me."
When Brother Tian heard this, even though he was still skeptical of her words, at least things wouldn't go to the worst point.
"Go ahead. I'll wait for your news. Also, give me your Weibo account password. I'll get someone to write you an apology and post it."
Lu Xia lowered her eyelids when she heard he was going to post an apology. She said softly, "It's fine."
Apologizing now would not do any good and would only make the netizens feel that she was putting on an act.
Brother Tian contemplated before he did not insist. "Sure. Up to you."
"I'll get going then."
Lu Xia put on her mask and glasses before she quickly left the office.
Brother Tian watched her leave. Out of all the artists he had managed, she was probably the fastest to court death.
She had only been popular for a few months, and now she had turned black.
She was really... unlucky this year!
Brother Tian sighed.

After Lu Xia left the office, she hailed a cab and headed to the estate where the Huo family lived.
She stood at the entrance of the estate for a long time after she got out of the cab. She watched the people going in and out of the lobby before she finally mustered up the courage to enter.
She entered the elevator and pressed the button for the top floor. As the elevator slowly rose, her heart began to race.
She did not know what her adoptive parents would think of her and if they would help her. She also did not know if they would choose to ignore her because she had almost ruined Huo Xiang's reputation.
Before long, the elevator chimed. Lu Xia shuddered. She suddenly had the urge to run away when she saw the elevator doors open.
However, she thought about her future and inhaled deeply before she walked out of the elevator. She walked up to the Huo residence and raised her hand to press the doorbell.
Time ticked by. Lu Xia stood at the door for a full five minutes, but no one came to open the door.
She pressed the doorbell again.
A few more minutes passed, but no one came to open the door.
Lu Xia frowned. Was there no one at home?
She raised her hand to look at the time. It was almost six o 'clock. Logically speaking, it was impossible for no one to be home at this time.
However, her adoptive parents definitely didn't know that she would come today, so they probably weren't avoiding her on purpose.
Lu Xia pressed a few more times, but there was still no response. It seemed that there was really no one at home.
No one was home. Lu Xia had no idea where they had gone. She exhaled deeply. She pulled out her phone and searched for Song Ning's number. After hesitating for a few seconds, she answered the call.
However, the call went through, but no one picked up until the cold voice of an unanswered machine came from the other end of the phone.
Lu Xia hung up and did not call again. She leaned against the wall weakly and waited.
Huo Yao waited until his feet were numb, but no one from the Huo family came home. Song Ning did not return either.
As time went by, Lu Xia's mood had sunk to the bottom, and the resentful thoughts in her mind began to grow again.
At this moment, the elevator dinged, and she subconsciously looked up.
