Chapter 382: My Older Brother Is Completely Cold-Hearted

Inside the agent’s office.

Brother Tian leaned against his desk and took in Lu Xia’s haggard looks. He felt annoyed and depressed looking at her.

He thought this new celebrity whom he had signed was a trouble-free artiste. But, in the blink of an eye, she caused so much trouble before the year was through.

Even if she wanted to court disaster, she should have done it a few years later when she made a name for herself. How could she sabotage her older brother, who was a top celebrity, so soon? No, wait. Correction, Lucky was not even her biological older brother!

The moment the agent thought about her brother, he felt resentful. She should have just owned up if he was not her biological brother. Instead, she kept misleading him by saying he was.

No wonder Lucky did not want to invite Lu Xia to appear on the entertainment program. If this issue did not emerge, Brother Tian did not know how long Lu Xia’s lies would have gone on for.

You really should not judge a book by its cover!

If she harnessed this energy and mind of hers into making herself popular, she might have managed to get over two million fans by now.

Instead, she ended up getting trolled all over the internet.

Brother Tian wiped his face. He broke the silence in the office with a sigh. “There’s no use sitting here. I have done everything I can, but the matter just won’t go away. Do you think Lucky is a small-time singer? How could you frame him like this?”

Lu Xia pursed her lips silently and clenched her hands on her knees.

If Huo Xiang was not cold-hearted, would she have acted so recklessly?

Huo Yao was not a celebrity, but he insisted on appearing with her on the entertainment program. Was he not out to embarrass her?

She had watched the first and second episodes, read all the netizens’ comments, and saw how Huo Xiang treated Huo Yao. It was so different from his behaviour towards her. Hence, the jealousy and hatred in her heart had arisen wildly.

Huo Yao was a country bumpkin who had just returned to the Huo family. How could she deserve all this praise and even make the Huo family stop acting poor and treat her so well?

If the Huo family had treated Lu Xia a little better, she would not have done something as heartless as this!

Lu Xia’s throat felt dry. She knew that she only had herself to blame for the situation. She was too anxious and had lost her cool. If this happened again, she certainly would not act so foolishly.

Brother Tian did not know what she was thinking. Despite his anger, Lu Xia was his celebrity after all, so he said, “Even though you and Lucky aren’t biological siblings, you have lived together for years. Why don’t you beg him? If he’s willing to let it go and clarify publicly, you might get a second chance. For the sake of your future, you can only beg your brother. Or else, you can forget about being a singer.”

“People hate me so much now. Do I still have a second chance?” asked Lu Xia in self-ridicule.

Brother Tian glanced at her. “If Lucky is willing to let it go, then sure.”

This was the entertainment industry for you. New scandals broke in every day. After the scandal died down with time, who would remember her deeds?

Lu Xia raised her head. “You don’t understand that brother of mine. He’s completely cold-hearted. There’s no way he would help me clarify things.”

“You have to try even if it’s hard. That’s unless you want to leave the entertainment industry.” Brother Tian pursed his lips.

He paused for two seconds. A thought crossed his mind before he continued. “Why don’t you request your foster parents? If it came from them, surely he would help?”

Lu Xia was stunned.

Brother Tian became confused after she remained quiet for a long time. “Don’t tell me that you aren’t close to them!”
