What if My Brother is Too Good?

Chapter 198



Gu Mingkai smiled bitterly and gently explained, “I came to you naturally to recognize you. When your mother gave birth to you, she was only 16 years old. After giving birth to you, she was terrified, restless, and completely at a loss. A lot of things happened back then, and when we finally learned of your existence, a long time had already passed. What I mean to tell you is that it was not our intention to abandon you. It was also only recently that I learned that you are my granddaughter.”

Huo Wu never expected to hear such a story from Gu Mingkai.

She didn’t know how to respond and could only fall into silence for a long time.

Just then, the dishes from the small restaurant began to be served.

Gu Mingkai took a look at the steaming home-cooked food, sighed briefly, and said, “Hungry? Let’s eat now.”

Although Gu Mingkai said so, he moved his chopsticks only a few times during the entire meal. He looked at Huo Wu, hesitated several times, and finally sighed without speaking.

Huo Wu quietly ate a few mouthfuls of food and said, “Just say what you have to say.”

“Child, what I want to tell you is that after the Gu family knew of your existence, what we all wanted to do was see and welcome you. I have four children, and your mother is the fourth in line, my youngest. You also have three uncles, all of whom are married, and each has more than one child of their own. Your first cousin is just five years older than you. If I hadn’t stopped him, he probably would have come to see you right away.” When Gu Mingkai mentioned his oldest grandson, the smile on his face became even more evident.

Huo Wu hesitated for a moment before asking, “Then… what about her?”

The woman in Huo Wu’s mouth referred naturally to her biological mother.

A shadow of pain flashed in Gu Mingkai’s eyes. “Your mother… She is not in a good place mentally and has been undergoing psychological treatment in recent years.” Gu Mingkai did not mention much about Gu Wei. He used the public chopsticks to give Huo Wu a serving of sweet and sour pork and continued to persuade her, “I hope you can return to the family and give us a chance to take care of you. What do you think?”

Huo Wu actually had already made a decision deep inside.

She knew what was the most beneficial choice for herself.

In front of Huo Yusen, she was an innocent and carefree little girl but away from his eyes, she was a person who would weigh the pros and cons more carefully than anyone else.

Huo Wu quickly replied, “I’m willing to go back.”

Gu Mingkai thought he would have to spend some time working his case in front of Huo Wu, but unexpectedly, he got a positive answer from her all at once.

At that, a smile of relief crossed his face. “Good child. Do you have a class this afternoon? I’ll take you home.”

Huo Wu had a class in the afternoon. After Gu Mingkai learned of it, he immediately said that he could wait for her after class.

In the afternoon, after Huo Wu finished her class, she followed Gu Mingkai back to the Gu residence.

The members of the Gu family should have already heard from Gu Mingkai long ago that Huo Wu would be returning, so they were all gathered at the home ahead of time to wait for her.

As soon as Huo Wu entered the Gu family’s residence, young and old quickly stood up to welcome her at the door.

“Xiao Wei’s daughter, she looks really iconic.”

“Come, come and sit here.”

“This child is called Huo Wu, right? What kind of fruit would you like to eat? Mango, dragon fruit, or kiwi?”

The enthusiastic voices of various relatives immediately besieged Huo Wu.

Huo Wu did not expect the Gu family to welcome her so much.

Perhaps infected by the emotions of the Gu family, Huo Wu’s smiles became more sincere.

It was only after Huo Wu sat down on the sofa that Gu Mingkai began to introduce her to the family, one by one. “This is your grandmother; the one on your left is your uncle; the one next to your uncle is your aunt…”

Only after Gu Mingkai finished introducing the circle of people around her did Huo Wu blink with some surprise and ask, “So I only have older and younger male cousins, but no female cousins?”

Hearing Huo Wu’s question, her grandmother burst out laughing. “Yes, your mother is the only daughter among my four children, and you are the only girl among my grandchildren’s generation.”
