What if My Brother is Too Good? - Chapter 185

After Huo Yusen left the room, Huo Wu allowed herself to lie on the bed and press the back of her hand to her burning face.

Her fluttering heart was beating so rapidly it was as if it was going to pop out of her chest the next second.

What did he mean with his sentence earlier?

What did he mean by “if you want, you can have my first time for everything”?

Huo Wu somewhat understood it, but she didn’t dare to think in that direction. She was afraid that it would just be her thinking too much.

Before her identity got exposed, she could get as close to him as much as she wanted. But when the relationship that would have supposedly kept them apart collapsed, she began to be afraid of having and losing him at the same time.

In the end, she just cared about him too much.

She was afraid that she wasn’t good enough for him and afraid of the unforeseen future.

Thinking about Xiang Hui who had appeared a few days ago and the uncertain future, Huo Wu irritably grabbed the blanket and covered her face.

Huo Wu had been trying to adjust her mood and plan for the future after her identity was revealed. And finally, she decided to visit the biological parents of the original owner of the body.

However, Huo Wu didn’t tell Huo Yusen about it. Instead, she drove to the Fu Xin Road where the couple often cleaned by herself.

She was pretty lucky. When she got to Fu Xin Road, she immediately spotted the couple who were cleaning there like last time.

After Huo Wu got out of the car, she slowly walked toward the couple.

The two elders seemed to be aware of the person approaching them. They raised their heads and saw the young girl awkwardly standing in front of them.

Mother Jiang smiled first, then she greeted Huo Wu, “Young lady, it’s you!” It was obvious that she remembered Huo Wu.

Huo Wu nodded and introduced herself, “I’m Huo Wu… No, actually, it should be Jiang Wu.”

The Jiang couple had no idea what Huo Wu looked like, so the moment they heard her name, they had a face full of sudden realization.

Huo Wu took a deep breath and was just about to call them Mom and Dad when Mother Jiang spoke kindly first, “Young lady, there’s something I want to tell you. Let’s go home and we’ll talk about it there.”

Then, the couple gathered their cleaning tools and walked ahead.

Huo Wu followed behind them confusedly.

Huo Wu also didn’t neglect what Mother Jiang called her. She still called her young lady even though she learned that she was Huo Wu.

Why did she keep such a distance from her?

Did something she didn’t know about happened?

The Jiang couple’s home was only a few minutes away.

When they arrived at the community entrance, Huo Wu saw the name of it and realized that it was a residential area newly built this year.

The average price per square was 30,000 yuan.

The Jiang couple lived here?

Father Jiang took the initiative to explain as if he knew about Huo Wu’s confusion. “Your older brother bought this house for us.”

Their home was on the third floor, which might have been for the convenience of their old age.

When they opened the door, Huo Wu got to observe the decoration of their home. It was simple, but all the necessary furniture was present. Mother Jiang got Huo Wu a pair of pink slippers and welcomed her, “Young lady, sit on the sofa first.”

After wearing the slippers, Huo Wu sat on the sofa. Father Jiang moved two chairs and sat in front of her. Mother Jiang sat next to Father Jiang after giving Huo Wu a cup of warm water.

Viewing their postures in front of her, Huo Wu was a bit anxious. “Did you want to tell me something…?”

The Jiang couple gave each other a look. Then, Mother Jiang began with a complicated expression on her face. “Actually, you are not our child.”

Although Huo Wu guessed it after hearing Mother Jiang call her “young lady,” she still couldn’t help but feel surprised.

Mother Jiang took a sip of the warm water, then recounted, “That year, I was working as a part-time worker at a private hospital. One morning when I was cleaning the bathroom, I suddenly heard the cry of a baby. The cry was continual and pitiful. Curiosity led me to search for the baby, and I found a newborn baby in a stall.”

Mother Jiang paused here, then continued, “The baby at the time was tiny, and her body was all wrinkled up. But, I still thought she was such a pretty baby. She hadn’t been born for long, so I handed her to the pediatric nurse to be taken care of. Then, Old Jiang and I thought that it was fate for us to meet the baby because our only child had recently passed away. I thought that this baby must be the little angel God sent to comfort us. As a result, we decided to adopt this child.”

When Mother Jiang finished, the living room fell into silence.
