What if My Brother is Too Good?

Chapter 57

Monier nodded his head and happily seized the dessert for himself. He put on a righteous expression and said, “Then I’ll eat the dessert for you. It’s not good to waste food.”

Huo Yusen glanced at Monier, it was obvious that he never expected Monier to say that. But due to Monier’s actions, Huo Yusen seemed to have understood something.

In the end, Monier ate a total of three plates of desserts. He was in a good mood after eating all those desserts, so he and Huo Yusen were able to finalize the contract by the time dinner ended. The two of them signed the contract after they finished eating dinner.

The two presidents were both intelligent and careful people. They had never signed a contract with another person just after having a meal with them. This was unprecedented.

After he signed the contract, Monier smiled and said, “I have long heard about China’s dining culture, but I never expect that I would one day be able to experience it.”

Huo Yusen smiled slightly in response and extended his hand towards Monier. The two shook hands while Huo Yusen said, “It’s a pleasure to work with you.”

Monier also responded, “It’s a pleasure to work with you too.”

Huo Wu held her chin with her hand. She sat on the side as she watched the two businessmen in business suits, negotiable about business. She smiled as she watched them shake each other’s hands cordially.

Although the plot had proceeded differently from what she had previously imagined, Huo Yusen and Monier’s business partnership was heading in a good direction for now.

In the future, she had to make sure that their business will continue to develop in a good direction.

Because the contract was of the utmost importance, the meal was dragged on. It was close to midnight by the time they finished negotiating their contract.

After everything was settled, Mr. Monier returned to his room to rest. Huo Wu and Huo Yusen were ready to leave.

Before Huo Yusen left, he glanced at the desserts that still remained on the table. He asked Huo Wu casually, “Do you like to eat desserts a lot?”

Huo Wu shook her head, “I don’t love desserts, but I don’t hate them either. It’s just that desserts are high in calories, so I usually don’t eat much.”

Huo Yusen raised an eyebrow in surprise and asked, “So, why did you order so many desserts this time?”

Huo Wu smiled slyly, “Mr. Monier is a little chubby, so I thought he might enjoy eating desserts. With that thought in mind, I ordered more desserts than usual.”

Monier was putting on weight because he enjoyed desserts a little too much. He was also aging, so his metabolism was slowing down.

As a result, a lot of the desserts he ate were all converted to fat.

Huo Yusen was taken aback by her explanation, but soon after, he revealed a gentle smile. Although her reasoning was quite childish, she had hit the nail on its head this time.

The two put on their coats and exited the hotel lobby. The moment they walked out of the warm hotel, they were instantly hit with a blast of cold wind. It was close to midnight in the middle of December. The temperature was extremely low by now. There were only a few pedestrians passing by. Most of the people were already home by now, nestled warmly in the homes.

Huo Wu pulled her clothes tighter around her after she was blown by the icy cold wind.

She looked up at the clear night sky when her eyes suddenly widened in surprise.

Small white snowflakes began falling from the sky.

Huo Wu held out her hand in surprise, and when a small piece of snowflake fell on her palm, it immediately melted into water. She turned sideways to look at Huo Yusen and said, “Brother, look! It’s snowing!”

Huo Yusen nodded and then looked at the snowflakes that were gradually falling from the sky.

The warm lights from the hotel shone gently on Huo Yusen’s face, softening his facial features. The small snowflakes fell on his hair, eyelashes, and his nose. He looked dashingly handsome in the middle of winter.

Just then, the bell chimed in the distance, notifying the people that it was now midnight.

Christmas Eve had just passed, and a new day had arrived.

Huo Wu realized that she hadn’t said the words she wanted to say to Huo Yusen, so she hurriedly said those words to him before the bell stopped chiming, “Brother, Happy Christmas Eve.”

Huo Wu’s face was flushed red from the cold wind, but her eyes were sparkling like the stars in the dark night. There was some hope and expectation in her gaze.
