Hou Ming’an felt more awkward when he heard his sister’s words. It seemed that he hadn’t cared enough about Hou Wan’er. If it weren’t for that other girl, he wouldn’t have called Hou Wan’er today. He had been thinking about that other girl in the past few days. Today he finally couldn’t stand it.
Hou Ming’an replied plainly, “Wan’er, isn’t your big brother nice to you? Why do you have such a big reaction?”
Hou Wan’er heard this and knew that she might have gone overboard. But why was her big brother suddenly so nice to her? What did he want? If it’s money, she didn’t have much and wouldn’t be able to help him. Besides, he had a good career.
Hou Wan’er said, “I’ll believe you for now!”
When Hou Ming’an heard this, a smile appeared on his face. As long as Hou Wan’er agreed, he’d be able to see the girl he had been thinking about day and night. She was injured previously. Was she better now? He must have a good chat with her this time.
Hou Ming’an hinted strongly, “It’s not fun if you came alone. Bring your classmates with you!”
Hou Wan’er was even more surprised when she heard this. Her big brother had always been quiet and rarely socialized. Not only did he invite her out this time, but he also invited her classmates? She had many classmates. It would be expensive to take everyone out!
Hou Wan’er said in disbelief, “Big brother, what’s wrong with you today? There are dozens of us. Are you sure?”
Hou Ming’an almost nearly fainted when he heard this. Did his silly sister think that he was a philanthropist? He asked her to bring her classmates and she actually thought about bringing all of them? Perhaps it wasn’t his sister’s fault, he wasn’t clear. But his sister also wasn’t very smart.
Hou Ming’an replied with clarity, “What are you thinking! I mean, you can bring the two classmates who came to the house last time!”
Hou Wan’er immediately understood what was going on. But which girl did her brother like? But didn’t he already have a girlfriend? Why would he fancy someone else? It seemed that men were truly philanderers; they fancied every woman they met.
Hou Wan’er remembered that Su Jin was already married to Chairman Xi, so she said quickly, “Big brother, don’t tell me you fancy Su Jin? Are you crazy? Su Jin is already taken. Chairman Xi will kill you if you make a pass at her!”
Hou Ming’an’s face darkened even more when he heard this. What was his sister thinking? Why would he fancy Su Jin? Moreover, Hou Ming’an and Xi Chenxiao knew each other. He knew that Su Jin was Xi Chenxiao’s beloved wife. How would he dare to make a pass? He did not know how his mother had given birth to such a stupid child back then.
Hou Ming’an face-palmed himself and said, “Shut up! Xi Chenxiao and I are friends too. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s wife. Don’t talk nonsense!”
“I was just thinking you would be bored if you came alone, so I asked you to bring your friends along. If you don’t want to, I can save some money!”
Hou Wan’er was relieved when she heard this. She would also like to bring her good friends along but none of them have time. But since her brother asked, she had to give him face. She’d go even if her friends didn’t have time, or her brother would be sad.
Hou Wan’er said apologetically, “It’s not that I don’t want to. Su Jin probably doesn’t have the time. It’s impossible for Tang Yuwei. Tang Yuwei has just attempted suicide today and she’s very weak now. I’m afraid she might need half a month to recover! So, you can only take me out!”
Hou Ming’an was quite happy when he heard that Su Jin did not have the time. There would be one less person in his way and he would have more time to interact with that girl. However, he became very anxious when he heard about Tang Yuwei that his phone trembled in his hand.
Hou Ming’an was very shocked. She seemed fine, why did she commit suicide? Hou Ming’an said in shock, “You mean, the one who rested at our place that day attempted suicide? Which hospital is she at now?”
Hou Wan’er didn’t expect her brother to be so worked up. But then, this could be surprising to anyone. Tang Yuwei looked so demure. She didn’t look like she’d have the courage to commit suicide. Her brother’s reaction was understandable, but he was a little worked up.
Hou Wan’er said over the phone, “Yeah, that’s her. She’s at the hospital next to your building!”
“But, big brother, why do you care so much about Tang Yuwei? You…”
