Chapter 229: Appear On A Variety Show With His Little Sister

The moment Tong Yu brought up Huo Xiang’s foster sister, Huo Xiang scowled fiercely. With almost zero hesitation, he said, “Nope.”

Tong Yu was surprised. He noticed Huo Xiang’s face turning angry. “Erm... Aren’t you going to ask Lu Xia to appear on the show with you?”

“I’m not close to her,” said Huo Xiang indifferently.

Tong Yu touched his nose. Not close? They grew up together, for heaven’s sake. Who was Huo Xiang trying to kid?

Tong Yu contemplated all this in his head but did not continue talking about Lu Xia. Instead, he asked him with a perplexed expression. “Then who will you take along? Someone from the industry? Or some other artist in the agency?”

Huo Xiang suddenly gave Tong Yu a strange look. “Didn’t you say I have to take a family member?”

Was his biological sister not family?

“Yes I did.” Tong Yu nodded. Someone crossed his mind, and his eyes opened wide with amazement. “Don’t tell me you want to take Brother Tingrui for the show?!”

Huo Xiang: “...”

“Tingrui is a famous lawyer in the industry. Although he isn’t as popular as a celebrity, he occasionally appears in magazines. I think Tingrui is a good choice.”

Tong Yu crossed his arms as he continued to run the analysis. Then his expression changed, and he looked at Huo Xiang quizzically. “Since Tingrui isn’t your biggest fan, he probably wouldn’t make an appearance on the variety show, right?”

Huo Xiang’s face became unsightly. “Who said anything about inviting Brother Tingrui?”

“Huh... Were you talking about your oldest brother then?” Tong Yu blinked and found it inconceivable.

“My baby sister.”

Huo Xiang paused and clarified. “My biological sister.”

Tong Yu finally realized which sibling Huo Xiang was referring to. He slapped his forehead and said, “Oh yes. How could I forget about our little sister? If she joins the show... tsk tsk... she will undoubtedly become one of the star attractions.”

After all, Huo Xiang and Huo Yao’s striking good looks alone were unsurpassable.

The more Tong Yu mulled over it, the more exhilarated he became.

Huo Xiang glanced at him. “Don’t be happy too soon. My little sister is in her senior year, so she might not have the time.”

“Don’t worry. The show is still in its planning stages. Since it will be a live telecast, it will probably get filmed on weekends and won’t affect your sister’s studies.”

“She might not be open to it.”

“That’s easy. Give me her number. I will take care of it,” said Tong Yu and took out his phone.

Huo Xiang looked at Tong Yu’s actions but did not pass on his little sister’s number to his agent. Instead, he pursed his lips and said after some time, “Forget it. I will ask her myself.”

Tong Yu put away his phone without giving it much thought. “Sure, then it’s settled. If you can’t convince her...”

Before Tong Yu could finish his sentence, Huo Xiang raised his hand and interrupted him. “I am her older brother. Of course, I can handle it.”

Tong Yu did not go on when he noticed the confident look on Huo Xiang’s face. Before long, he took the contract and left the Huo residence.

Huo Xiang sat on the couch and took out his phone. He sent a text message to his little sister.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

[Yao, can you do me a favor?]

Although Huo Yao was still in class when she received the text, she replied immediately: [What favor?]

Huo Xiang sat up straight. He quickly composed his reply, tapping his fingers on the screen. However, upon reading it, he felt that it was inappropriate and deleted it. Then he repeated the process several times without sending even a single reply to Huo Yao.

Huo Yao looked at the top of the screen and saw that Huo Xiang was still typing the message. After it continued for a few minutes, she sent him a question mark.
