What if My Brother is Too Good?
chapter-18

Huo Wu didn’t know why, but when she heard Huo Yusen comfort her by telling her “don’t be afraid”, her uneasy heart actually settled down.

She blinked her dark grape colored eyes and stared at Huo Yusen. She softly said, “Brother, can you stay here with me?”

This was the first time Huo Yusen saw his younger sister acting so lovably and obediently.

He had to say that he preferred the current little sister rather than the brash and arrogant sister of the past.

Since she was his only biological sister, Huo Yusen replied softly, “Okay.”

Housekeeper Zhang walked over with an antipyretic (medicine to reduce fever) in her hand.

“Eldest Young Master, this medicine works wonders. She just needs to take a capsule, and her fever will be gone by tomorrow. Let me feed one to the young lady,” Housekeeper Zhang said enthusiastically.

Huo Yusen subconsciously glanced at Huo Wu.

Huo Wu didn’t even turn to look at Housekeeper Zhang. Instead, her big misty eyes were looking at Huo Yusen the whole time.

She seemed to be yearning for something.

Although she didn’t say anything, Huo Yusen understood her gaze.

When someone is sick or at their most vulnerable moment, they would prefer their family members to take care of them rather than outsiders.

Huo Yusen took the cold medicine from Housekeeper Zhang’s hand with his free hand. Then, he said lightly, “There’s no need.”

It seemed like he was ready to personally feed the medicine to Huo Wu.

Housekeeper Zhang opened her mouth in shock when she heard him refused.

Eldest Younger Master had the most indifferent and cold personality. Forget about feeding someone medicine, he probably didn’t even have any experience in taking care of other people at all.

This was the first time he took the initiative to take care of someone.

But Housekeeper Zhang immediately recalled that Huo Wu was Huo Yusen’s younger sister.

Even though the Eldest Young Master appeared cold and detached from other people, in fact, he must have a soft spot for his family.

She was naturally happy to see that the relationship between the brother and sister was becoming closer. She didn’t want to disturb them, so she left the room with a smile on her face.

Huo Yusen gently pulled his hand away from Huo Wu’s hand and leaned toward her slightly. Then, he used his left hand to help her up and allowed her to lean on him.

Huo Wu’s whole body leaned weakly on Huo Yusen’s chest. Her whole weight was pressed against him softly.

Huo Wu’s forehead rested against Huo Yusen’s chin.

She could feel his breathing against the top of her head.

It was soft and warm.

Huo Yusen took a small capsule of cold medicine from the packet and put it in front of his mouth with his free hand, “Open your mouth.”

Huo Wu was very well-behaved when she was ill. She obediently swallowed the medicine with a sip of water. After she finished eating the medicine, Huo Yusen helped her back on the bed.

Huo Yusen stood up as if he were about to leave after feeding the medicine. Huo Wu impulsively reached out her hand and grabbed onto his sleeve.

“Brother…” Her voice trembled slightly, and her voice sounded a little higher pitch than usual, just like the sound of a kitten acting coquettishly.

Huo Yusen stopped walking and looked down at Huo Wu lying on the bed. He asked, “Do you…want to eat something?”

Huo Wu didn’t have any appetite nor did she want to eat anything. So, she shook her head honestly.

Huo Yusen frowned at her response. She needed to eat.

“Do you want a bowl of plain rice congee? You haven’t eaten in a while, right?”

Huo Wu had eaten breakfast with Huo Yusen and Huo Yuan. At noon, she only drank a cup of coffee. Afterward, she didn’t eat anything else.
