Chapter 300: Is Your Little Sister’s High IQ Contagious?

Tong Yu was dumbstruck. After he composed himself, he said, “Huo Xiang, are you nuts? Didn’t you keep...”

Huo Xiang pursed his lips and interrupted him. “The other band members might not want the same thing as me. Or else, why would news about disbandment appear online?”

Then he paused before speaking further. “My injury is just a prelude.” Huo Xiang spoke in self-ridicule.

Tong Yu went quiet. He thought about Jin Xuyuan’s recent attitude, and a thought manifested in his head. “Do you think Jin Xuyuan is the mastermind behind the poison?”

He remembered Jin Xuyuan was extremely well-connected and was even acquainted with people from some mysterious association which he had never heard of.

“That’s possible. After all, he was the only person who knew about my injury. He seemed certain that I was crippled,” said Huo Xiang.

“We definitely need to keep an eye on him. Your little sister suggested a few days ago that we should beat him at his own game. I didn’t think that the opportunity would present itself so quickly. I just feel sorry about all those brand ambassador deals,” sighed Tong Yu deeply.

Huo Xiang glanced at him.

“What do you want to do about the news on Weibo?” asked Tong Yu.

“They can do whatever they want,” replied Huo Xiang nonchalantly. Then he pondered for two seconds and said, “But you should call up Mr. Qu and explain things.”

Tong Yu nodded. “If you didn’t remind me, it would have completely slipped my mind. I’ll call him right away. ”

Tong Yu took out his phone and looked for Mr. Qu’s number. The call got through very quickly.

Tong Yu put down the phone after talking for a few minutes. He turned to look at Huo Xiang with relief in his eyes. “He says it’s okay.”

“Great.” Huo Xiang was relieved.

Tong Yu put the phone on the table and sat next to him. “Sadly, we signed the NDA, so we can’t tell people about your participation in the entertainment program. Or else, the rumors would have died down on their own.”

Huo Xiang raised his brows. “Don’t you think it’s better if it blew up even more?”

Would it not be more interesting if they treated it as a buzz for the upcoming entertainment program?

Tong Yu looked at Huo Xiang in surprise and said, “Huo Xiang, I suddenly feel like you have gotten smarter.”

Huo Xiang went speechless again.

“...”

“You didn’t care about these things in the past. Did your little sister’s intelligence rub off on you?” Tong Yu touched his chin. He felt this was highly possible.

Huo Xiang went speechless again.

“...”

Damn him!

Huo Yanxi also saw the news about Huo Xiang’s injury online. Although he did not believe it, he called Huo Xiang to check on him.

But no one answered even after a few rings.

After giving it some thought, Huo Yanxi went to the Huo residence in the evening.

Everyone was having dinner when he pressed the doorbell. Since Huo Yao was more or less done, she answered the door.

The moment she opened the door and saw Huo Yanxi standing there, she was stunned. Then she said indifferently, “Brother Yanxi.”

It occurred to Huo Yanxi that he would certainly encounter his little sister when he came by. He felt a little sad when he heard how distant she sounded. He acknowledged her uneasily before asking casually. “Is Xiang home?”

“Yup, he is,” Huo Yao turned to go back in after replying briefly.

Huo Yanxi looked at Huo Yao from behind. She gave off a cold aura even while walking back. He stood where he was for a while before coming in through the front door.
