The missed calls and text messages were from the same person, Huo Xiang’s agent, Tong Yu.
Huo Yao tapped the screen open to read the text messages.
Tong Yu: [The filming of the sportswear ad has been confirmed.]
Tong Yu: [It’s tomorrow.]
Tong Yu: [10:00 am tomorrow. Can you take leave from school? If you have trouble doing it, I can talk to your school.]
Tong Yu: [Are you there?]
Huo Yao glanced at the time that the messages were sent. The last message was sent about 30 minutes after the first one.
Huo Yao did not call him back. She assumed that it would be alright to take a leave from school and typed: [My phone was on silent mode, so I couldn’t hear anything. Tomorrow should be fine.]
The moment she sent it, a red exclamation mark appeared in the chat, indicating that the message had been sent but was rejected by the recipient.
Huo Yao was clueless about why this happened.
Huo Yao held her phone and went into a daze before she raised her head in disbelief. She waved her phone at Min Yu. “What does this mean?”
Was she blacklisted?
Min Yu glanced at Huo Yao. His eyes landed on her phone with an unsent message and a prompt when she texted someone called ‘Tong Yu’.
A guy?
Min Yu narrowed his eyes and said in a soft tone, “I think you got blacklisted.”
Sure enough, Huo Yao’s number had been blocked. She was always the one who did this, but now that it happened to her, this felt a little unreal to her.
Huo Yao took her phone back and looked upset.
Had he blacklisted her because she did not reply to his text quickly enough?
However, Tong Yu did not seem like the sort with a short fuse.
Min Yu raised his brow and asked her. “Was that a friend of yours?”
He did not see Tong Yu’s previous texts about filming the advertisement.
Huo Yao turned off the chat application and searched for Tong Yu’s phone number as she replied. “He is my fourth older brother’s agent.”
She swiftly dialed the number.
Min Yu said nothing, but the sternness on his face promptly disappeared.
The call got through quickly.
The first thing Huo Yao said was, “Yu, if you are angry with me, give it to me straight.”
Although she sounded pissed off, her tone strangely did not sound angry.
She could not lose her ine from advertising because her number had been blocked.
It was no big deal to get blacklisted. Since she was nice, she decided not to take it to heart.
After hearing strange words from Huo Yao, Tong Yu panicked so badly that his phone nearly fell from his hand.
Sometime later, Tong Yu managed to pose himself. “Erm... Are you sure?”
The moment he answered the phone, Huo Yao sounded angry. He became so worried that it seemed as though he had mitted a major crime.
Huo Yao touched her nose when he heard Tong Yu’s cautious tone. After feeling puzzled for a moment, she explained. “I’m out, so my phone was on silent mode, and I didn’t hear your messages pinging... When I replied, they were rejected by your account.”
“Huh? Rejected? How can that be? Why would I block your texts?” Tong Yu was at a plete loss. He put the phone on handsfree and turned on his chat messenger.
Huo Xiang was walking out of the studio when he heard Tong Yu talking about blocked messages. He halted in his steps and quietly turned around to head back to the studio.
