What if My Brother is Too Good?

Huo Wu’s aunt smiled and said, “Speaking of which, we, the in-laws, all wanted a girl, but I don’t know why everyone ended up having sons. But it’s alright now. Our old Gu family finally has a girl now.”

Um… Huo Wu suddenly had four older male cousins and two younger cousins, and she was still the only girl in this generation. She started to feel a slight pressure for some inexplicable reason.

At this time, a young man sat next to Huo Wu. He looked very young and was three points similar to her. He had the kind of features that would stun people at a glance. He first introduced himself, saying, “I’m Gu Yan, your eldest cousin.”

After Gu Yan introduced himself, another young man with rosy lips and pretty white teeth approached her and introduced himself enthusiastically, “I’m Gu Chi, your second eldest cousin. Cousin, I’ll cover you from now on.”

Gu Yan snickered and shoved Gu Chi a little. “You said it wrong. It should be cousins. We, your cousins, will cover you in the future.”

Huo Wu looked towards her other two cousins who remained silent and saw that they, too, were also nodding their heads along in agreement.

For some reason, this triggered a feeling in Huo Wu that she would be very favored in the future.

After all, she was a lone green among ten thousand of red.

Gu Yan was skilled at conversing. Although today was his first contact with Huo Wou, he treated Huo Wu as if she was a relative he had long known, giving Huo Wu a relaxed feeling. He pulled Huo Wu up and took the initiative to say, “I’ll take you to see your room. Grandpa arranged your room overnight since he found out about you. See if you like it first.”

Gu Chi was unwilling to lag behind and said, “I’ll go too.”

When Huo Wu arrived on the second floor, she found that her room was decorated very girlishly, and the furnishings in it were all pink.

Gu Chi pointed to a large doll placed on the bed and said, “I picked this out for you!”

Huo Wu’s eyes bent, and she said sincerely, “Thank you.”

Gu Chi casually waved his hand and replied, “My pleasure.”

On the second floor, Huo Wu looked around and only saw Gu Yan and Gu Chi beside her. She hesitated and asked, “My mother… is she here?”

Gu Yan and Gu Chi froze at the same time.

Gu Yan wavered for a moment before answering, “Aunt is not here. She is in the nursing home.”

Huo Wu asked, “Can you guys take me to meet her?”

After Huo Wu basked in the warmth of the Gu family, her feeling of being a Gu family member also deepened.

She felt that no matter what, she should go and see the woman who had given birth to her at the age of sixteen. That year, she, herself, was still underage, so she must have been very scared when she encountered such a thing.

Although Huo Wu was not the original owner, she believed that if the original owner was still around, she would’ve also forgiven that woman for her abandonment back then.

Gu Chi gave her a toothy grin. “Of course.”

Gu Yan seconded, “I can take you there. The nursing home has everything. If you’d like to soak in the hot springs, we can also take you to the hot springs along the way.”

Huo Wu nodded gratefully. “First cousin, I’ll be counting on you then.”

Huo Wu did not ask about her father. The man who could make a woman give birth to a child at the age of sixteen was a scumbag no matter how you looked at it. Her conjecture was probably on point, because at the dinner table afterwards, no one mentioned her father either.

Gu Yan brought up at the dinner table that Huo Wu wanted to go to the nursing home to see Gu Wei.

Gu Mingkai looked at Huo Wu with a pleased expression. “Good child, it’s nice of you to think of your mother. She will be very happy to see you.”

Gu Yan said, “Then I’ll send Cousin there tomorrow.” After saying that, Gu Yan turned his head and asked Huo Wu, “Tomorrow happens to be Saturday. You don’t have classes, right?”

Huo Wu shook her head. “Yes.”

The matter of visiting Gu Wei in the nursing home tomorrow was thus settled. In addition to Gu Yan, who would be sending her there, Gu Chi would also be keeping them company.

After Huo Wu went back to her room, she thought of the hot springs that Gu Yan mentioned. In the end, she prepared to bring a swimsuit as a spare.

After she prepared her things, she pondered for a moment and sent a message to Huo Yusen. “Big Brother, I have something to do tomorrow, so I won’t be going back to the Huo’s residence.”
