What if My Brother is Too Good? - Chapter 74

“So, follow after your dreams and do what you want.”

Huo Wu blinked her eyes and suddenly questioned him, “Brother, what about you?”

Don’t you have something you wanted to do? Don’t you have a dream that you wish to chase after? Do you still yearn to fly freely in the sky? Do you still yearn to feel the rush you feel when you speed through the beautiful sky?

Huo Yusen chuckled at her question. He lowered his eyes and replied, “I have my own responsibility that I need to follow.”

Huo Wu’s heart trembled in pain when she heard his reply.

Their grandfather had only one daughter in his life, so after his wife and daughter passed away, he only had his granddaughter and grandson left.

Grandfather had spent his entire life creating his own business empire and gaining a firm foothold in the business world. A huge company like that needed an heir. Between Huo Yusen and Huo Wu, it was obvious that Huo Yusen was more suitable to inherit the company. Huo Yusen had the ability and character to lead the company his grandfather had spent his entire life building.

As a result, Huo Wu could do what she wanted and lived the life she desired, but Huo Yusen can’t. Huo Yusen was once young and frivolous. He had dreams and his own plan for the future, but all of it crumbled in front of reality.

Huo Wu didn’t understand why, but her heart ached for Huo Yusen.

Ever since she transmigrated here, she had yet seen the bright and warm smile on his face that was portrayed in the photo.

He learned to become mature and responsible, but he had forgotten how to laugh and smile happily.

“I know a well-known director in the entertainment industry. I don’t know if you had heard of him before, but his name is Fu Yining. As far as I’m informed, I heard that he is preparing to film a movie based on a campus-setting. He has already decided on the female lead of the movie, but he hasn’t been able to find a second female lead that he liked for a while. If you want the role, you can audition for it.”

Fu Yining?

Could her brother be talking about the talented director, Fu Yining, who will win the Oscar for best director for the movie called《Magnificent》?

The movie,《Magnificent》was set in the era where China finally started reforming its country and opening up itself to the outside world. The movie told the life experience of a poor girl who came to the bustling city from the countryside. It was also able to vividly portray the rapid economic growth China faced during that era.

However, the movie had a deeper meaning.

The protagonist’s name in the movie was called Xiao Fang. After she arrived in the big city, she was immediately dazzled by the bright and beautiful city. She eventually went astray and became a street girl. It only took her three months for her to transform from the simple-minded and innocent village girl to a gold-digging woman who only cared about money.

T/N: Street Girl – a prostitute who attracts customers by walking the streets.

It took her six full years to go from an ordinary street girl to a wealthy woman running a flourishing brothel.

She transformed from a simple and naive 18-year-old girl to a charming and seductive twenty-four years old. She spent the prime of her year with different men, one after another. Before she came to the city, she had a toy horse made of bamboo. She loved it a lot, but she abandoned the toy in order to live a better life.

T/N: Toy Horse – Toy Horse – It’s not a miniature toy horse, instead, it’s like a rocking chair shaped like a horse.

In the end, she was tired of such a life. When she finally wanted to quit this lifestyle, it was already too late. At that time, she only had three months to live because she had a terminal illness.

At the end of her life, she returned to her hometown. She sat down by the river where she often played when she was a child and leaned on her favorite toy horse. As she enjoyed the last peaceful moments of her life, she closed her eyes.

In the last shot of the movie, she had a peaceful smile on her face before she died. She had transformed back to the innocent young girl who had yet been corrupted by the city. The toy horse accompanied her as her life came to an end.
