Chapter 408: Misunderstandings between Brothers Resolved
On the way back, Huo Jiaxing sat in the passenger seat and looked at his brother who was driving, as if he had something to say.
"what happened?"
Huo Jiachuan noticed his sister's hesitation and turned to look at her.
Huo Jiaxing leaned back in her chair and pouted. Then, she made up her mind and asked the doubts that had been in her heart for a long time.
"Brother, I went to your room to look for something and saw a photo of a girl's back..."
Huo Jiaxing's words made Huo Jiachuan tense instantly, and his grip on the steering wheel increased.
"That girl, is she my second sister-in-law?"
Huo Jiaxing looked at his brother's expression, noticed the change in his eyes, and already had the answer in his heart.
"She's really my second sister-in-law!"
Huo Jiachuan nodded and did not deliberately hide it from his sister.
"It was many years ago. At that time, she had not yet married my second brother. We met in a travel group. However, she no longer remembers it. It was just a casual encounter."
Huo Jiachuan spoke calmly, but his heart was uncontrollably stirring again.
Although it was an experience that had long been forgotten by the other party, he had kept the photos for so many years. Huo Jiaxing could see that his brother had a special feeling for his second sister-in-law.
However, now that his second sister-in-law has married his second brother, he should let it go no matter what.
"Brother, I think you should find time to fall in love." Huo Jiaxing suggested with a smile.
Her brother seems to be a little slow and introverted in terms of emotions. He is almost thirty years old and has never had a serious relationship.
If I tell this to others, no one will believe it. After all, he is not bad in terms of appearance and looks OK.
Even if he had feelings for his second sister-in-law in the past, missed opportunity is missed opportunity and he has to face the reality.
Also, you must keep your distance from your second sister-in-law.
Perhaps starting a relationship is an effective solution.
Huo Jiachuan smiled and said, "You little girl are urging me. Let's talk about it later. You should stop worrying about these things and study hard. OK?"
Huo Jiaxing stuck out his tongue and said, "I'm just worried about you."
Now, her brother is the only close relative left by her side. The other members of the Huo family are also her family, but there is always a layer of separation between them.
She wanted to see her brother happy.
……
The next day, inside Yunxi Group.
Just as they were about to start the regular meeting, Huo Jiachuan saw his second brother walk in, stood up and greeted him, his eyes still a little unnatural.
Huo Yunzheng glanced at him, hummed, and didn't look at him again.
Huo Jiachuan pursed his lips, feeling a little uncomfortable.
As Huo Yunzheng's assistant, Yin Xiao presided over the meeting, where the heads of various departments reported on the work progress of the month and the development of new projects.
Huo Jiachuan was not in a good mood today and was a little absent-minded. While handling his work, he watched his second brother's expression out of the corner of his eye.
He didn't want to have any rift with his second brother, nor did he want to cause any misunderstandings.
So, after the regular meeting, Huo Jiachuan went to the top floor with a folder in his hand.
"Hello, Vice President."
Several staff members from the President's Office greeted him one after another. Huo Jiachuan nodded in greeting and raised his hand to knock on the door.
"Second brother."
In the office, Huo Jiachuan walked over with trepidation, put the document on the desk, and looked tentatively into Huo Yunzheng's eyes.
He adjusted his breathing and then spoke slowly.
"Yesterday... my second sister-in-law accidentally stepped on air, and I wanted to help her, so I held her hand."
He explained.
Huo Yunzheng listened, shifted his gaze away from the contents of the document, and glanced at him twice.
"No problem."
He no longer cared as much as he did yesterday. That incident was just an accident.
"sit down."
Huo Yunzheng said calmly and continued to look at the documents.
Huo Jiachuan still stood there. He took out a photo from his pocket and placed it on Huo Yunzheng's desk.
With just one glance, Huo Yunzheng recognized that it was a photo of their Chuchu.
Apparently, this photo was taken in the northwest.
Chuchu had told him before that she liked traveling and had once gone to the northwest for a few days with a travel group.
"Brother, I think I need to be honest with you about this matter."
When Huo Jiachuan's voice rang out, Huo Yunzheng looked up at him, almost guessing what he would say.
"I have indeed met my second sister-in-law before. To be honest, I knew her earlier than you, my second brother, but she doesn't remember it anymore. It was just a past experience. At that time, my second sister-in-law and I participated in the same hiking group, but we didn't communicate much."
"My second sister-in-law is beautiful and has a good personality. In fact, many people can't help but be attracted to her, and I was no exception at that time."
"But don't worry, second brother, there is nothing between me and my second sister-in-law."
After Huo Jiachuan told his past experiences, he continued hurriedly, fearing that Huo Yunzheng might misunderstand him.
Huo Yunzheng nodded, he was clear about this.
At that time, Huo Jiachuan was called back from the northwest by the old man. When he met Chu Chu in Lishuiju, she obviously did not know Huo Jiachuan.
"In the past, I did have some feelings for my second sister-in-law, or I could say admiration for her, but that was also a remembrance of past memories, nothing else. I know that my second sister-in-law is the most important person to you, my second brother. Similarly, the only person she cares about is you, my second brother."
"I shouldn't keep the photo. I only have respect for my second sister-in-law now, nothing else."
Listening to Huo Jiachuan's frank words, Huo Yunzheng was silent for about half a minute.
"I know about this."
Huo Yunzheng didn't say anything else. Huo Jiachuan nodded, took back the document he had signed, and walked out the door.
As his fingers touched the door handle, Huo Yunzheng called him from behind.
"Jiachuan, it was my fault yesterday. I'm sorry."
Huo Yunzheng apologized.
Huo Jiachuan turned around suddenly, his eyes slightly moist. This was his second brother, the one he respected and admired since childhood.
The second brother actually apologized to him?
This shows that in my second brother's heart, I am also a very important family member, otherwise, he would not care about his feelings.
……
When Huo Jiachuan came out of the office, he happened to meet Huo Xiaonuan who also came to see Huo Yunzheng.
"Is second brother in there?" Huo Xiaonuan asked.
Huo Jiachuan nodded.
Huo Xiaonuan was about to go over, but stopped and looked at Huo Jiachuan suspiciously.
"Why are your eyes red? Are you allergic or inflamed?"
Like a rabbit with red eyes.
Huo Jiachuan smiled and explained, "It's okay. Maybe I've been looking at the computer all the time and I'm a little visually fatigued. I'll just put some eye drops in when I get home."
Huo Xiaonuan said "oh" and didn't pay much attention to it.
Just as she was about to go to the office, Huo Jiachuan stopped her and said, "Do you have honeysuckle? I just saw that the corners of my second brother's mouth were a little chapped. The weather has been hot these days, and my second brother has a lot of things to do, so he might have a fever."
Huo Xiaonuan nodded, "Yes, I'll have someone bring it up in a bit."
As she spoke, she crossed her arms in front of her and looked at him playfully, "You are really considerate, more considerate than a woman like me. That's right, you have been following the second brother since you were a child. You listen to whatever the second brother says. You are his number one fanboy."
Huo Jiachuan felt a little embarrassed by her words and scratched his head.
"Okay, you go quickly."
Huo Xiaonuan stuck out her tongue. She was obviously telling the truth, why was she running?
