“One… two… three! Ok!”

Huo Wu clicked the screen several times.

Since she clicked multiple times, she got many photos from that.

After taking the photo, Huo Wu stood up straight and lowered her head to look at each of the photos taken.

The atmosphere of the holiday was so strong that even Huo Yuan couldn’t help but joke, “You didn’t take an ugly photo of me, right?”

Huo Wu couldn’t help but laugh and flatter Huo Yuan at the same time. “Of course not. Dad looks handsome no matter what.“

She zoomed in on Huo Yuan’s photo.

Looking at the photo, although Huo Yuan was over the age of 50, he still looked handsome. Time didn’t lessen his attractiveness and instead gave him a special aura that only mature men had. Because he was of high status, he had an outstanding aura, and there was nothing weird that you could pick out from him. No wonder why there were still so many women hovering around him even at his age.

Every age group had its own unique aura.

If we say that Huo Yuan had a mature and steady aura, then Huo Yusen would be said to have a distant and noble aura.

The father and son looked very alike, but it was obvious that Huo Yusen’s look was more fitting for the tastes of the current generation of young girls.

He had a cool and distant aura, delicate facial features, and an attractive presence.

Looking at Huo Yusen in the photo, Huo Wu exclaimed genuinely, “Big brother looks nice too. No matter which angle or if you took the photo too quickly, he would still look nice even with his eyes closed.”

Hearing this, Huo Yuan couldn’t help but laugh out loud. “Ah Wu has been getting sweeter and sweeter at talking.”

Huo Yusen seemed to think of this as funny, as his face revealed some laughter that was hard to see usually.

Huo Yuan teased Huo Wu, “Ah Wu, how about you?”

“Me?” Huo Wu purposely slid her hand across her brows and eyes, and said half-jokingly, “I’m the most good-looking person in this household.”

Huo Yuan laughed. “Right, my daughter looks the best.”

Because of Huo Wu’s jokes, the household was happy and enjoyed a heartwarming moment.

At a heartwarming time like this, Huo Wu greedily wanted to pause the time right here.

But she knew it was impossible.

The time was always passing, and the sweet moments were always short.

But, she can keep a copy of this memory.

She opened WeChat, and posted, “Dad, big brother, Happy New Year!”

The attached picture was their group photo.

The three people in the photo had huge smiles on their faces. Even the coldest one had a light smile on his face.

The photo had so much warmth that it seemed to leak from the photo.

Not long after the post, Huo Wu received a ‘like’ from Yu Xinxin.

ALittleHeart: Wow, I’m so jealous that you have such a handsome dad and big brother. I don’t have words for my dad. [goodbye][goodbye].

Huo Wu had seen Yu Xinxin’s dad before. He was a successful middle-aged businessman. He had a big belly and was a bit chubby, but he was a good dad. Otherwise, Yu Xinxin wouldn’t joke that she didn’t have words to describe her dad’s looks.

Huo Wu replied to Yu Xinxin with a few cute emojis.

Then, Yu Xinxin replied again.

ALittleHeart: When are you free? Let’s hang out sometime.

Thinking about the fact that she had to visit family members and friends with Huo Yusen before the eighth on the lunar calendar, she replied to Yu Xinxin.

Peppa Wu: Let’s hang out after the eighth.

Looking at the date, Huo Wu was reminded of the fact that Zhang Guo will be meeting Jiang Yuqin soon.

Jiang Yuqin looked so much like Grandma – would Zhang Guo think of the connection?

Thinking about this time bomb made Huo Wu a bit anxious.

She couldn’t help but wish that a moment like this can remain for a bit longer.

Huo Wu’s mind was occupied by Jiang Yuqin for a moment. When she came back to her senses, Yu Xinxin had already replied back.

She replied with a “Sure.”

When Huo Wu was just about to close WeChat, she noticed another comment.

Big Gray Wolf: How about me?

Big Gray Wolf was the nickname that Huo Wu gave Mo Ze.

The reason for this nickname was to remind herself to be careful of him.

Huo Wu was going to ignore him at first, but thinking about the fact that it’s the first day of the lunar calendar, she thought she shouldn’t be cold and make people unhappy.

Huo Wu replied, “You what?”

Mo Ze replied very quickly.

Big Gray Wolf replied to you: Where’s my New Year greeting?

Mo Ze had control of half of his father’s capital. There shouldn’t be only a few New Year greetings for him. But adding on to something nice shouldn’t be a bad thing.

Thinking of it this way, Huo Wu replied, “Happy New Year.”

Mo Ze, who was on the other side of the phone, felt more of a holiday atmosphere for some reason after this greeting.

She was probably with her family members right now; he can guess it from the heartwarming family photo.

He looked at his cold and empty room. For some reason, he had a lonely feeling for the first time.

He had celebrated all his New Year’s Eves the same way, waiting for the New Year to come by himself.

But why, why did he feel so lonely and anxious this time?
