Meanwhile downstairs
"Mr. Huo might be busy."
The receptionist kept calling until she received an automatic message indicating no one was available to answer the phone before she finally hung up and informed Lu Xia.
She knew Lu Xia was Huo Yanxi's little sister. But Lu Xia did not make a prior appointment, so the receptionist did not dare to break the rules and allow her to go upstairs.
Lu Xia tightened her grip on the phone. Despite calling Huo Yanxi five or six times on his mobile phone, he refused to answer. Although she already saw this coming judging from his earlier attitude, she asked the receptionist to try to get Huo Yanxi on the landline one last time.
Lu Xia laughed in self-ridicule now that she lost all hope.
Initially, she thought Huo Yanxi wouldn't ignore her so blatantly, but it seemed that she had been overoptimistic.
