Chapter 479: When her second brother returned, he could beg and plead in tears. (2)
Huo Sishen, with his arm around her waist, closed his black eyes very contented. He turned off all the nightlights inside the bedroom with the remote control.
With her, and the child, in his arms.
His chest felt weighty, as though he owned everything now. He had no regrets.
That didn’t last too long. A little hand crawled around under the blanket and inched up next to his waist like a caterpillar.
It fumbled around in the dark as though it was looking for something important.
Huo Sishen raised his brows. “Do you have needs? We can check with the doctor tomorrow.”
The little hand belonging to Land of Warmth and Tenderness Gu finally reacted.
It finally found a piece of soft flesh around his waist and gave it a full twist from left to right!
“Huo Sishen!”
Her face was beet red.
“Who? Who has needs? You are lying on my second cellphone!”
Huo Sishen stiffened in the dark.
On the other side, Huo ChuChu covered up her beet-red cheeks with both hands after hanging up the phone.
When she had finally recollected herself some after a little while, she fanned her cheeks with both hands.
Wow, she would never have guess… her Big Brother, so good at it!
She looked at the clock. It was only 9 PM.
Sure enough, this was the time at night when the couple got lovey dovey.
She made a mental note to not call up her sister-in-law at this hour again.
Lying down, she tossed and turned and was unable to read another word on her word documents!
“Oh my gosh. I am losing my mind!”
She, too, was in her twenties. Truth be told, she, too, had the steel heart of a girl.
She never thought that there were nice men in this world. But now that she had witnessed how “in love” her big brother and sister-in-law were, her steel girl’s heart was being awakened.
She desired to have her own romance!
Why waste her perfectly good time to work overtime at night?
What’s wrong with being in love with a little fresh meat?
Or flirt with a handsome older man?
No longer feeling like working any more and not being able to fall sleep, Huo ChuChu thought about it, pushed the document aside, put on her slippers quietly and ran out of her room.
To eavesdrop!
She needed something to distract her from her desire to be in a romantic relationship!
Huo ChuChu snuck outside of Mother Huo’s room.
Any other family would probably still be quite lively at this hour.
But not at the Huo’s. As most of the family members are females, they would return to their bedrooms early every night. The butler and male servants, too, left at 7 PM every day. Only a few maids stayed behind at night.
Old Mrs. Huo, older and widowed, did not like to leave her room much. Mother Huo, younger but cared a lot about good health, kept to a very set daily schedule. Once she had returned to her bedroom, she would not wander around in her pajamas.
As such, Huo ChuChu, threw on a coat, worry-free, placed her ear over Mother Huo’s door. She did not have to worry that anyone would notice her strange acts.
“Dad, just go on a hiatus.”
Gu Wushuang’s slightly muffled voice, with her tears choked back, could be heard coming from the bedroom.
Huo ChuChu’s eyes widened.
The sound proofing of the room wasn’t bad but Mother Huo was, after all, a woman in her fifties. Her hearing had not been as good as before. As such, the volume that she was playing the audio back was loud to a youngster
In addition, Gu Wushuang had taken music lesson since she was a child and had some lessons in vocals as well. And her mother was a native of capital city.
After such influences, Gu Wushuang’s enunciation were impeccable. Her almost tearful voice might seem fragile but was penetrating. Huo ChuChu could hear it clearly through the wall.
This was a mutiny!
Huo ChuChu grew up as a Second Generation Rich. She got the meaning of it all just from that!
She was stunned.
She disliked Gu Wushuang because she felt that there were always subtexts in her words. And she had always pretended to be fragile to trick her second brother. That made her angry!
She hadn’t expected Gu Wushuang to be so ruthless!
Had it been Huo ChuChu, she would not have been able to say such a thing to her father who had raised her for 20 years!
She had neither the courage nor the ambition!
