During the break ti in-between classes, Huo Wu got an unexpected call from Chu Xueyi.
After she picked up the call, Chu Xueyi’s bright and cheerful voice ca through the phone. “Is this Ah Wu?”
Huo Wu found a corner with no one else around first, then replied, “It’s , sister Chu.”
You could imagine Chu Xueyi’s smiling face through the phone. “I saw your brother’s WeChat Mont. It’s quite rare for him to post anything. And so, I’m here to cheer you on too! Keep it up. You’re the best!”
“Thank you, sister Chu.”
After the encouragent, Chu Xueyi still didn’t hang up. She hesitated for a bit, then continued, “Also, Ah Wu, I heard that your brother will go to the charity dinner tonight as well. What do you think I should wear?” Although Chu Xueyi had known Huo Yusen for years, she still didn’t know what type of outfit he liked on a girl. Moreover, they had spent the past few years studying abroad in two different countries, which made it even harder for her to predict his likes. She didn’t know what to do, which was why she had to call Huo Wu for help.
After hearing this sentence, Huo Wu subconsciously held tighter onto the phone.
She lowered her eyes, and suggested with a soft voice, “I think big brother would like girls who wear light-colored dresses.” Huo Wu got this idea from her interactions with Huo Yusen, but she had never verified it since Huo Yusen never stated what he liked. But to Huo Wu, her guess was probably close to ho.
Getting the answer she wanted, Chu Xueyi was much more relieved and thanked Huo Wu, “Ah Wu, thank you so much. I’ll wear a light pink dress tonight then.”
Huo Wu shook her head and held on to the phone tightly. “You’re welco, sister Chu.”
Chu Xueyi chuckled. “Then I won’t interrupt your class anymore. I’ll treat you to dinner next ti.”
“Ok.”
After hanging up the phone, Huo Wu sighed.
But her chest still felt heavy, as if it was stuffed with air.
She shook her head, tried her best to stop thinking about this, and went back to the classroom to prepare for her next class.
When Huo Wu got ho from school, she surprisingly found out that Huo Yusen was still ho and was coming down from the second floor as he was wearing his tie.
He was wearing a blue and black striped suit and a limited designer brand na watch on his wrist. He looked handso and noble.
Huo Wu put her hands behind her, and then greeted him, “Big brother, are you going to the charity dinner tonight?”
Huo Yusen acknowledged with a sound and raised his brow. “How did you know?”
Actually, Huo Yusen wasn’t planning to go at first. He had an important international eting tonight. And in his previous plans, this eting was much more important than the charity dinner. But after seeing how kind Huo Wu was to the old grandpa last ti, he changed his mind.
It was a good thing for her to have this pure kindness in the current society.
As her older brother, he had the responsibility to protect her precious kindness.
No matter how much he will donate tonight, it will be all under Huo Wu’s na.
Huo Wu tightened her lips, and answered with an upset voice, “Sister Chu told .”
Huo Wu was a bit down about the fact that she still had to know about his plans through another person.
They were living under the sa roof, yet she still seed to be far away from his world, which made her feel defeated.
However, Huo Yusen’s next sentence energized Huo Wu again.
After finishing wearing his tie, Huo Yusen organized his collar, then said, “I’ll bring you to all the events after you finish your gaokao.”
Because of how shocked she was, Huo Wu opened her eyes widely. And when she realized what was going on, she went up to him and hugged him tightly. Huo Wu raised her head and smiled happily. “Then it will be our promise that you will bring to all the future events. You can’t regret it then!”
“I won’t.”
After getting Huo Yusen’s confirmation, Huo Wu satisfactorily went upstairs to do her howork. But not long after opening her book bag, Huo Wu received a call from Yu Xinxin.
“Ah Wu, my parents aren’t ho today. Why don’t you co to my house to do howork together?”
Huo Wu looked at the practice test that she just took out and said, “But…”
Yu Xinxin aiyahed, and then continued, “Ah Wu, if you co here, we can discuss the problems together. And if it gets too late, you can just stay here tonight, and we can go to school together tomorrow. Doesn’t that sound like a good plan?”
After hearing Yu Xinxin’s words, Huo Wu was a bit tempted to go too. Although Yu Xinxin’s grades were also not too good, she still had a more solid math foundation than hers.
Rembering that she still had so basic knowledge points she didn’t get, Huo Wu nodded. “Ok, Xinxin. I’ll co over now.”
Yu Xinxin hurried and replied loudly, “Alright, Huo Wu. Then I’ll wait for you here.”
“Ok.”
Huo Wu put the practice test back into her folder, carried her book bag, and then left with her car keys.
