Chapter 73
Huo Wu gradually felt that she seemed to have become closer to Huo Yusen after she discovered his little secret.
Soon, it was December 31st.
Huo Wu received a WeChat from Mo Ze in the afternoon.
Mo Ze didn’t send a text or voice message, instead, he sent her a photo.
There was only one sentence in the photo, “Is it New Year’s Eve? Why don’t you straddle yourself on my body?”
T/N: This is a play on words. He’s basically inviting her to have an intimate night with her.
Huo Wu let out a cold snort after she saw the picture. He’s a playboy from the bottom of his heart, after all, it’s hard to change bad habits.
Huo Wu did not message him back, instead, she directly blacked Mo Ze.
Even if she wanted to straddle someone, she would never choose him.
If he wanted someone to straddle him, then he should ask Jiang Yuqing to straddle him.
Huo Wu ignored Mo Ze after she put him on her blacklist. Soon, she had forgotten about this incident.
After a few nights, Huo Wu was finally about to successfully construct the model airplane on the morning of the last day of the year.
She built the airplane model all by herself, making sure that no one had helped her. As a result, she only slept for four hours a day for three consecutive days to finish building the model.
She believed that this would be a very meaningful gift. She hoped that Huo Yusen would like it.
Huo Wu put the airplane model in a box after she finished building it. After the New Year’s Eve dinner was over, Huo Wu took out the box that contained Huo Yusen’s present and gave it to him.
“Brother, this is for you. Happy New Year!”
Huo Yusen raised an eyebrow in surprise.
The box was rather large, and he didn’t know what was in the large box.
Huo Wu hurriedly urged him to open in and have a look, “Brother, open the box and look at the present.”
Huo Yusen opened the box under Huo Wu’s expectant gaze.
But Huo Yusen’s hands froze when he saw what was in the box. His hands seemed to be stuck on it and he didn’t move for a long time.
Time seemed to have suddenly slowed time.
Huo Wu suddenly thought that she had done something bad when she had good intentions, so she hurriedly apologized and said, “Brother, I’m so sorry. I went into your study a few days ago and saw that there were many airplane models in your study. I thought you liked airplane models very much since you had so many in your study, so I thought you would like it. If you don’t like it, I’ll put it away right now.”
Huo Wu reached out her hand to take the box back, but Huo Yusen stopped her.
“I like this present a lot. A’Wu, thank you.”
Huo Yusen’s voice trembled slightly when he said that. He lowered his head so that Huo Wu cannot see the turbulent emotions underneath his eyes.
However, Huo Wu noticed that his mood was very restless right now.
This was the first time that she had seen him acting somewhat flustered.
Huo Yusen had not received this type of present in many years.
After Huo Mo died, no one dared to give him a model airplane again even though there were many people who knew that he liked airplanes. This was because anything related to flying had become a taboo at the Huo Family after many years.
He had almost forgotten about his dream from many years ago.
When he was young, he dreamed that one day he could control the world under the sky. He longed to enjoy the thrill of speeding across the sky.
It was a pity that his dream crumbled into nothingness in front of reality. He succumbed to the expectations of the elders.
He didn’t know what to do with the present. He slowly straightened his back and looked at Huo Wu and said, “If you really like acting, then do it. The entertainment industry is a complicated and chaotic world, but I will protect you…”
T/N: Omg! 🥺 I feel so bad that Huo Yusen couldn’t pursue his dream…yet he wanted to support Huo Wu’s dream.
