Huo Xiang left Tong Yu’s office and pressed the lift button.
When he entered the lift to go down, he happened to bump into Xiang Nan’s agent, Jin Xuyuan.
Jin Xuyuan wanted to harm Huo Xiang when he was down after his injury. He did not bother to make small talk and merely glanced at Huo Xiang indifferently before shifting his eyes away.
He pressed for the parking lot in the basement before pulling his mask from his pocket to put it on.
Jin Xuyuan was heading to the car park too. Although he was also a talent agent, he was always arrogant towards Tong Yu. However, owing to Xiang Nan’s actions recently, things were a little embarrassing for him in the company, so he was avoiding everyone.
He could not help feeling uncomfortable when he bumped into Huo Xiang, who did not even bother to greet him.
Jin Xuyuan contemplated how Huo Xiang had posted an online announcement to speak on Lu Xia’s behalf. He raised his head and looked at Huo Xiang. “Did you deliberately give Lu Xia the song so that she could give it to Xiang Nan?”
Although it was phrased as a question, he was certain that it was the truth.
Huo Xiang’s eyes landed on Jin Xuyuan without saying a word.
Jin Xuyuan connected the dots for all the recent events. After he finally figured it out, he laughed as he slapped his head. “Well done. You were capable of doing something so despicable, just so you could kick Xiang Nan out of the band. I was wondering why you refused to give up your position as the bandleader. It turns out that you wanted to ruin Xiang Nan.”
If Huo Xiang did not help Lu Xia clarify matters online, he would have probably never learned the truth.
The more Jin Xuyuan thought about it, the darker his face became.
Huo Xiang looked at Jin Xuyuan oddly. He certainly was a worthy agent considering the number of conspiracy theories running through his head.
Huo Xiang wanted to tell him that he did not care about being the leader of Phenom.
However, Jin Xuyuan had always thought the worst of others because he had a despicable heart. Hence, it was futile to clarify any matter.
The lift reached the basement before long and the door opened with a chime. Huo Xiang walked out without saying a word.
Jin Xuyuan stood in the lift, watching Huo Xiang with a cold look in his eyes. He only gathered his thoughts and stepped out of the lift as the doors were about to close.

Huo Xiang had just started the engine when his phone rang. He took out his phone unhurriedly but was stunned when he saw the caller ID flashing on the screen.
He answered the phone before long. “Hello, Brother Yanxi.”
“Are you free? Let’s meet for dinner.” Huo Yanxi’s voice came from over the phone.
Huo Xiang contemplated before he replied. “Sure. Just tell me where. I’ll head over now.”
Huo Yanxi gave him an address. After contemplating for two seconds, he asked. “How’s Yao?”
Huo Xiang was a little surprised that Huo Yanxi had enquired about Huo Yao. He replied softly. “She’s good. She spends all her time revising at home and cramming hard for her entrance exam.”
Huo Xiang paused before he continued softly. “Shall I ask her if she wants to join us for dinner?”
Huo Yanxi narrowed his eyes a little and looked at the ground. After some time, he said, “It’s fine. I don’t want to take up her time.”
“Sure thing.” Huo Xiang did not insist. “Then, see you in a bit.”
He hung up before long.
