Huo Wu blinked her eyes blankly. It took her a few seconds to realize what the young girl had just said.
When she finally processed everything, she couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
This was the first time she had heard someone blessing two siblings to have a good relationship with each other.
Even so, she appreciated her auspicious blessing.
After the young girl left, Huo Wu turned to look at Huo Yusen and asked, “Brother, why did you help her just now?”
Huo Yusen had always acted coldly towards other women. For example, during the welcoming banquet on the first day she transmigrated over, Huo Yusen had coldly rejected numerous women who had invited him to dance. In the hot pot restaurant just now, Huo Yusen ignored the flirtatious female worker who was asking him for his contact information. Huo Wu could still recall the humiliated and embarrassed expression the female worker had on her face when she left.
Due to all of this, Huo Wu was a little surprised that Huo Yusen took the initiative to help the young girl open her bottled mineral water just now.
Huo Yusen didn’t know that he had left such an impression in Huo Wu’s mind. He replied in a light tone, “It was just a slight effort on my part.”
Huo Wu smiled when she heard his answer.
That’s right! Why shouldn’t you help someone in need of help when it only requires a small effort on your part? This was just like how she had helped Jiang Yuqing pick up her belongings that had fallen on the ground. Unexpectedly, the two of them acted surprisingly similar in these situations.
“Brother, if I wasn’t here just now, perhaps she might’ve asked you for your contact information too.” Huo Wu had sharp eyes, so she saw the glint of light that flashed by the young girl’s eyes when she had first seen Huo Yusen.
If it weren’t for her, Huo Wu guessed that the young girl would’ve pounced on Huo Yusen too.
“She won’t.”
Huo Wu blinked her eyes in confusion and asked, “Why not?”
“If you aren’t here, then my assistant will be here.”
Huo Yusen was implying that he will not be alone. If his assistant was here, then his assistant will help the young girl unscrew the bottled mineral water. His assistant will also prevent any peach blossoms from pouncing on Huo Yusen.
Huo Wu didn’t know why, but after hearing his assurance, Huo Wu’s mood improved a lot.
It seemed like Huo Wu had gotten somewhat possessive towards her elder brother. It was as if her elder brother can only be her elder brother. She won’t let any other girl snatch him from her.
However, Huo Wu’s mood immediately plummeted after two minutes. This was because Huo Yusen received a phone call from work; the company had an emergency that he needed to deal with immediately.
After he hung up the call, Huo Yusen said to Huo Wu, “I’m sorry, but I need to head back to the company. I’ll have Chen Fang come and pick you up.”
Cheng Fang was the full-time female driver that Huo Yusen specially hired for Huo Wu.
Although she was very reluctant to part with him, Huo Wu sensibly let go of Huo Yusen’s arm so he could leave.
Huo Wu lowered her head and looked down at her shoes. Her voice was slightly sullen as she said, “Brother, you should head back to work then.”
Huo Wu was very talented in acting. In fact, it was very easy for her to control her current emotions. She could also express any type of emotions she wants to express vividly, whether it was a beautiful and charming smile or a lovable crying face. She could change her emotions in an instant.
If she wanted to, then she could’ve easily made the sullen expression on her face disappear.
Even so, she didn’t want to do that now. She didn’t want to put on an act in front of Huo Yusen.
She wanted to show Huo Yusen her most genuine self.
