Chapter 373: An Apology Post And Pushing The Blame On Lu Xia

Xiang Nan picked up his phone from the table under Jin Xuyuan’s cold stares. He tapped on Weibo and accessed the new post which he was tagged to.

The instant Xiang Nan heard the audio file, he felt the earth shift under his feet. The phone slipped from his hand and fell on the table with a clang.

Four words flashed in his head: He was done for!

Jin Xuyuan pressed his forehead. “Why were you so stupid? Don’t you know that some things can’t be shared over the phone?”

Xiang Nan’s face was ghastly pale. “I-I-I didn’t realize. I wasn’t thinking.”

“To think I kept supporting you. You have destroyed your career with your own hands by doing this,” said Jin Xuyuan with a grimace.

Xiang Nan staggered back. He grabbed Jin Xuyuan’s arm anxiously and said, “I didn’t know things would end up like this. You must help me...”

Jin Xuyuan yanked his arm from Xiang Nan’s grasp. “Did you bother to tell me before you posted the audio file online yesterday? Don’t you have the brains to know whether it was the right move?”

“I was misled by Lucky’s sister. She had promised me that nothing would go wrong,” muttered Xiang Nan.

Jin Xuyuan scoffed. “Promised? How could she guarantee anything? She was clearly exploiting you to ruin Huo Xiang. Can’t you see? You were cannon fodder for her.”

Xiang Nan wiped his face. He was at a complete loss. His mind kept buzzing nonstop.

If he knew things would end up this way, he would never have posted the song online recklessly.

Jin Xuyuan could not help sighing when he saw how desperate Xiang Nan looked. He had been Xiang Nan’s agent from the start, so after a beat, he said, “Xiang Nan, you were too anxious. I have told you earlier as well. You will become the leader of Phenom sooner or later. I told you to be patient. How could you lose your cool like this?”

Xiang Nan parted his lips. “I...”

Xiang Nan felt jealous, angry, and anxious when he saw Huo Xiang’s popularity rise sharply after appearing on the program. Hence, he wanted to see Huo Xiang lose his standing and reputation. But could he say this openly?

Xiang Nan could not tell Jin Xuyuan about it. Or else, Jin Xuyuan would think he was narrow minded.

Jin Xuyuan shook his head as he rubbed his forehead somewhat powerlessly. In a decisive voice, he said, “You will post a public apology online now and push all the blame onto Lu Xia.”

He had listened to the audio file carefully and looked at the comments on Weibo. Although Xiang Nan’s fans had scolded him badly, most of the netizens blamed Lu Xia. Hence, Xiang Nan could only push the liability on Lu Xia.

Even if Xiang Nan’s image could not be whitewashed right away, there was plenty of time for that. Scandals like this erupted in the entertainment industry all the time. After a few new ones would surface, this would become old news, and no one would care about it anymore.

Although Xiang Nan was eager for quick success, he had some talent, so all was not lost. It was just a pity Jin Xuyuan could no longer do the things that he had planned for Xiang Nan previously.

Jin Xuyuan felt awfully annoyed just thinking about it.

On hearing what his agent said, Xiang Nan instantly realized that Jin Xuyuan had not given up on him. Hence, he instantly pulled himself together. “I will post an apology now.”

“Remember to make it clear that you were misled by her. You must emphasize you are also a victim,” reminded Jin Xuyuan.

Xiang Nan glanced at Jin Xuyuan as coldness swept across his eyes. “Got it.”

Since Lu Xia did not think twice before sabotaging him, he certainly would not let her have it easy.
