What if My Brother is Too Good?

Chapter 49

She just wanted to give the gift and wish him a “Happy Christmas Eve” directly to him. That was all she wanted.

Mo Ze frowned, “Are you sure that’s all you want? You don’t want anything else?”

Anything else?

Huo Wu shook her head honestly, “I just want to see my brother. I don’t want anything else.”

Mo Ze suddenly felt as if an arrow had pierced through his heart. He originally thought that she would ask him for his private number.

When Mo Ze still hadn’t responded to her request after some time had passed, Huo Wu looked at him with some suspicion and asked, “President Mo, do you know where my brother is right now?”

“Of course, I know,” Mo Ze answered. It suddenly dawned on him that Huo Wu had been addressing him as “President Mo” since the beginning of their meeting.

“Addressing me as President Mo makes it seem like we’re strangers. Why don’t you change the way you address me?”

Huo Wu blinked her apricot shaped eyes; she was smiling mischievously, “Should I call you Uncle Mo then?”

The gentle smile on Mo Ze’s face almost cracked. He reminded her, “I’m the same age as your brother.”

“Oh.” Huo Wu had an indifferent expression on her face, “You and my brother are two completely different people in my heart.”

Another arrow had pierced through Mo Ze’s heart. He suddenly had a headache from trying to reason with her. He finally dropped the topic and said, “I believe your brother should be at the Hanhai Auction House right now. Do you want to go there?”

Since he promised that he would agree to any of her requests, then he will definitely keep his promise.

Hanhai Auction House? The name of this auction house sounded familiar to her as if she had heard it from somewhere.

However, she was confident that she had not heard of this name recently. That meant that she had probably seen it somewhere before. Huo Wu was pretty certain that she heard of this name in the novel?Forced Love?.

Could it be that something happened at Hanhai Auction House?

As soon as that thought crossed her mind, Huo Wu became worried. She rushed Mo Ze, “Let’s go.”

“Okay.”

When Huo Wu and Mo Ze arrived at Hanhai Auction House, it was already 8:00 PM.

The auction was already underway by the time they arrived.

When they had arrived, the auction house happened to be auctioning a small blue and white-colored pot from the Ming Dynasty.

Huo Wu didn’t know much about this kind of antique nor did she have any interest in it. As soon as she arrived at the auction house, she immediately started scanning the hall for Huo Yusen.

The auction house was very large, only half of the seats were filled by people. Even so, Huo Wu knew that all the people that were present in this auction house were influential businessmen.

After scanning around, she found Huo Yusen sitting in the middle of the first row.

He was wearing a black suit today, and an old foreign gentleman in a grey suit sat next to him. The two people seemed to be whispering something to each other.

Huo Wu pointed her finger at the foreigner and asked Mo Ze, “Do you know him?”

Mo Ze glanced at the direction where Huo Wu was pointing, and something flashed by in his eyes when he saw the foreigner sitting next to Huo Yusen. However, he quickly hid his emotions and lightly said, “That person is Mr. Monier.”

Monier?

Huo Wu carefully recalled the information and the plot in regard to the French businessman, and then asked carefully, “Is that person the French media tycoon, Baptiste Monier?”

A glimmer of surprise quickly flitted by Mo Ze’s eyes when he realized that Huo Wu recognized that man. His mouth curved into a smile and said, “So, it turns out that you know him too.”

It turned out that he was actually Baptiste Monier!

A light bulb suddenly went off in Huo Wu’s mind; she finally knew why Hanhai Auction House sounded very family to her. An event happened in this auction house that had soured the relationship between Huo Yusen and Monier. In the end, Mo Ze profited from this unfortunate event.

Huo Wu glanced at Mo Ze who was standing beside her and balled her hand into a fist.

She must prevent their relationship from turning sour!
