Chapter 404: A Con Man

The only thing Huo Yao heard was that the advertising fee was really high. She went quiet for a moment before she asked him. “How much?”

Tong Yu raised his hand to show five fingers.

$500 000?

Could she earn $500 000 without showing her face?

Huo Yao suddenly felt that it was really easy to make money working in the entertainment industry. After she gathered her thoughts, she recalled what Tong Yu had said. “Did he turn down the offer?”

Tong Yu nodded. “Your brother said you weren’t interested and would find it a bother, so he turned it down.” He shook his head and sighed. “The advertising fee was worth $500 000. How could he act so willfully?”

$500 000!

Huo Yao could hardly breathe. “!!!”

Was there a knife lying around somewhere?

She wanted to sever ties with Huo Xiang!

“Yao, I have to go now. I need to get to the airport. Why don’t you head back to school?” Tong Yu waved his hand before turning to leave.

Huo Yao watched Tong Yu’s receding back. In her head, she could not bear the thought of passing up $500 000 which had fallen in her lap!

Hence, she said, “Yu, hang on.”

Tong Yu halted before he turned to look at Huo Yao. “Yeah?”

“Do you think we can still do the ad?” asked Huo Yao solemnly.

Tong Yu was taken aback for a moment before he understood her meaning. “Do you want to do the ad?”

“Uh huh!’ Huo Yao nodded.

She would do it for $50 000, let alone $500 000.

“I think I can still fight for it, but your brother...”

Before Tong Yu finished his sentence, Huo Yao interrupted him. “He doesn’t have a say in this.”

She was already being kind by not severing ties with the wastrel who had almost made her lose so much money.

Tong Yu touched his nose before he said, “I can talk to the brand. I’ll get back to you.”

Huo Yao nodded. “Thanks, Yu.”

“It’s fine. I’m off.”

“Bye.”

Huo Yao turned to head back into the campus after Tong Yu left. She felt relaxed and was clearly in a much better mood.

After she entered the school, a man with gray hair came walking towards her. He was walking slowly with the help of a walking stick.

Huo Yao glanced at the old man. She stepped aside politely when they came close to each other.

The old man walked very slowly. When he reached Huo Yao’s side, he suddenly fell towards her.

Huo Yao’s eyes narrowed. Three words popped up in her head. “A con man!”

Just as Huo Yao was about to move back, she caught sight of him hobbling with his back bent, so she could not help supporting him.

“Sir, let me make things clear. I’m just a student, so I don’t have any money,” said Huo Yao solemnly.

She was clearly telling him he was scamming the wrong person.

The old man’s lips twitched hard. He had been considering whether to scam the girl or not. But now that he heard what Huo Yao said, he inexplicably wanted to do it.

Hence, the old man let go of his walking stick, which fell onto the ground with a clang before he fell completely on Huo Yao. “Hey! You bumped into me!”

Huo Yao: “...”

“My chest hurts, and I am feeling giddy. My blood pressure is rising and my heart is acting up... ahh!”
