In her eyes, when she could only eat grain husk and vegetables to fill her stomach, Huo Wu was eating luxurious delicacies. While she had to work part-time to earn enough money for her school feeds, Huo Wu could easily ask for a tutor to tutor her as much as she wished. While she slept on a wooden bench in the snowy cold winter without a quilt, Huo Wu slept on the softest and warmest bed.

Her mind was corrupted by the unfairness of it all, so she wanted revenge.

The foolish, sweet, and arrogant second female lead that grew up pampered and loved wasn’t the female lead’s opponent. After all, the female lead worked hard to climb up to where she was, so she easily beat Huo Wu. It wasn’t long before Huo Wu fell into Huo Yuqing’s trap and was sold off to the countryside.

She was bought by a family living in a mountain village and was married to their foolish son. A few months later, she died of depression at the age of twenty-one.

Huo Yuqing was not a kind person. She was outstanding and smart, but she had a big ego.

Huo Wu couldn’t compete with Huo Yuqing’s shrewdness.

Even if she confessed to Father and Mother Huo that she wasn’t their biological child, Huo Yuqing would still hate her in the end.

After all, there wasn’t much of a difference between seventeen years and eighteen years.

Huo Wu had formulated a plan, but she needed to see Huo Yusen first before she could come to a decision.

“A’Wu, are you ready?”

When Yu Xinxin saw that Huo Wu still hadn’t come out yet after a while, she couldn’t help but worriedly urged her again.

Huo Wu opened the door and smiled at her. “I’m ready now. Xinxin, let’s head down.”

“Wow! You’re so beautiful!” Yu Xinxin’s eyes widened in surprise as she looked at Huo Wu’s light makeup and black dress.

Huo Wu had just put on some light makeup after changing into the little black dress.

She didn’t need to apply thick makeup at her age. She just needed to apply some light makeup to bring out her beautiful facial features more.

However, after applying some light makeup, she looked like a beautiful immortal.

“Thank you.”

Huo Wu and Yu Xinxin had just gone downstairs when there was a commotion at the entrance of the mansion.

Her heart stirred as she looked towards the door.

Two men entered through the door one after another.

The two men were somewhat similar in appearance, but one was middle-aged while the other one was still a young adult.

Huo Wu knew the middle-aged man. He was her father, Huo Yuan.

Then logically speaking, the man standing next to the middle-aged man should be her elder brother, Huo Yusen.

Hyo Yusen appeared to be at least 188cm tall, with a straight posture. He was wearing a black suit that fit him perfectly, and his shoulders are broad and narrow.

There was an indifferent expression on his face, but even then, he was able to instantly catch the surrounding people’s attention.

He had a deep eye socket and a tall nose. His facial features were prominent, making him look a bit mixed. But he was indeed Chinese, with black hair and black eyes.

His appearance was undoubtedly handsome. His appearance was outstanding no matter which era or country he was placed in.

Despite all that, he had a cold personality. It was like the biting cold wind on a bitter winter day. People didn’t dare to get close to him at will.

He was like the reflection of a moon in a basin of water, completely unreachable.

Huo Yuan seemed to be in a good mood. When he saw Huo Wu standing not far away from then, he beckoned his hand at her and said, “A’Wu, come here. Your brother is back.”

Huo Wu calmed her mind and smiled a perfect smile. She stepped forward and said sweetly, “Brother, welcome back.”

Huo Yusen looked at the sister whom he had almost no impression of in his memory and nodded slightly at her.

Huo Wu’s expression remained the same, but she couldn’t help but think that her “brother” was just as the book had described. He was cold and unapproachable.

Even when facing his “biological sister”, his expression remained the same.
