After Huo Wu finished speaking, her eyes sparkled brightly as she looked at Huo Yusen expectantly.

Huo Yusen looked at her profoundly. Her beautiful apricot eyes were clear and bright, and the expectations contained in her eyes were obvious. It was so obvious that it was impossible for him to refuse, but more importantly, he didn’t want to refuse either.

He nodded his head lightly.

The smile on Huo Wu’s face bloomed like a firework.

A weak female voice suddenly interrupted their interaction, “Hi! May I bother you for a moment? Can I ask your boyfriend to open this bottle cap for me?”

Huo Wu subconsciously turned toward where the sound came from.

A young girl who looked like she was around twenty years old was standing beside her. The young girl was holding a bottle of mineral water in her hand. The top of the water bottle was slightly deformed from all the force she had exerted on it. It seemed like she had been struggling to open the bottled water for a while.

The young girl had been trying to open the bottle of mineral water for nearly ten minutes. Perhaps it was because the young girl’s palm was slightly sweaty, making it harder for her to open it or perhaps the design of the bottle cap was flawed, but it was not easy for a weak girl like her to open it. In short, she was still unable to open the bottle even after trying for a long time.

Her companion hadn’t arrived yet, but she didn’t have the time to wait for her companion to arrive and help her because she was very dehydrated. She was so thirsty that she had no choice but to ask the intimate ‘couple’ that was passing by for help.

The ‘couple’ was extraordinarily beautiful. The female student looked like a helpless little bird as she snuggled up against the man’s handsome and lofty figure. She was leaning her head on his shoulder and they were silently looking at each other. The atmosphere around them was warm and sweet. It was impossible for others to be envious. She had no choice but to interrupt their intimate moment. When she asked them for help, she deliberately directed the question to the female student. It was up to the female student whether they would help her or not. She did this so it wouldn’t cause unnecessary misunderstandings.

Some girls would become unreasonable and easily irritable after they fall in love. They become jealous easily and would often misunderstand other girls if they tried to approach her man. Therefore, when she asked for help, she was cautious and directed the question at the female student. She didn’t want to accidentally encounter someone that would easily misunderstand her request.

Huo Wu didn’t realize that the young girl’s question was directed at her because the young girl asked ‘her boyfriend’ to help her open the bottled water. Huo Wu obviously didn’t have a boyfriend. It took a moment for realization to finally dawn on Huo Wu and she hurriedly explained, “He is not my boyfriend. He is my brother.”

The young girl was taken aback when she heard her explanation; she obviously didn’t expect them to be siblings. She smiled awkwardly and said, “Is that true? You two looked very well matched.”

As soon as she finished speaking, the young girl smacked her mouth in a hurry. Oh my god! How can she just blurt out what she was thinking secretly? How can she describe two siblings as people who are ‘well-matched’ for each other?

She rushed to explain what she meant, “I didn’t mean that romantically. What I really meant to say is that the two of you have a good relationship with each other as siblings.”

Huo Yusen reached out his arm and took the bottled mineral water from her and twisted the cap slightly. The bottled mineral water easily uncapped under his force.

The young girl gratefully received the unopened bottle of mineral water from him and took two sips of it. After she quenched her thirst, she thanked them sincerely, “Thank you so much! I was so thirsty.”

Huo Wu replied, “You’re welcome.”

After the young girl took a few more sips of water, the girl smiled at Huo Wu and said, “I hope that the two of you will have a long-lasting and blessed relationship as siblings.” After she thanked and wished them lunch, the girl turned around and jogged away.
