Miracle Pill Maker Bullies the Boss

Lu Xia opened her WeChat quickly.

Brother Tian: [Congrats, Xiaxia! You made it into the finals. It’s no wonder you’re in the elite class of one of the best schools. You’re incredible.]

Star Training Camp You: [Congrats, my lovely Xiaxia, for making it into the next round.]

Star Training Camp Rou Jin: [The champagne is ready. We will celebrate tonight.]

Star Training Camp Hua Lin: [I’ll pick you up.]

…

In the past, Lu Xia would have been happy to see these congratulatory words, but now…

She clenched her fists and inhaled deeply before she replied to them, one by one.

She had to uphold her image at the company, regardless.

After replying to the girls, she sent a message to her agent.

He always thought highly of Lu Xia. The moment her National Quiz Contest results came out, he got the marketing team to spread the news.

Tian: [Oh yes. Quickly make a post on Weibo with a screenshot of your result. I have made arrangements for the marketing team to promote it.]

Lu Xia knew what the agent wanted, so she replied: [Okay.]

Tian: [I’ve been talking to the director of a variety show called ‘Countryside Life With My Family’. It will get aired through live telecast. If you are lucky enough to get selected, it will do miracles for your popularity.]

Lu Xia seemed to recall something when she saw her agent’s message. Her expression altered, and she hurriedly typed: [Is it the one by Mr. Qu Yi?]

Tian: [How did you know about it? The show is still in its planning stages. I only happened to hear about it because one of my friends knows Mr. Qu.]

Lu Xia suppressed her excitement.

She typed back: [I heard about it from one of my older brothers.]

Tian: [Is it the singer?]

Lu Xia: [Yup.]

The agent touched his chin and thought about it.

Then he wrote back: [In that case, if I don’t manage to get you a slot, find some way to get your older brother to take you with him for the show.]

Qu Yi was certainly the leading variety show production talent in the industry. He had directed three variety shows, and all of them were sellouts, bringing great fame to all the celebrities who participated in them.

Being the number one variety show director, he had an odd temper and was picky, so taking the back door might not work in this case.

Despite knowing that this show was in the pipeline, the agent had no confidence in convincing Qu Yi to pick Lu Xia for it.

So he was trying to use the National Quiz Contest to build a good image for Lu Xia in order to help improve her chances of getting casted.

Lu Xia’s expression became complicated at the thought of Huo Xiang.

The problem was that her fourth older brother was always distant and tended to be cold. Despite growing up together, Lu Xia and Huo Xiang were not very close. Moreover, she had offended him previously…

But the variety show was bound to be a hit, so… she had to gain a spot for herself, no matter what.

Lu Xia inhaled deeply and replied to her agent: [I got it.]

After ending the conversation, Lu Xia felt a lot more calmer. Her eyes landed on the National Quiz Contest results on her phone, and she suddenly smiled in self-ridicule.

She should not have lost her cool because of this tiny National Quiz Contest.
