Your Beloved Sweetheart Is Online

Chapter 885 - 888: Humph, Who Cares About a Mansion!

"""No way," he said as he turned over, pulling the blanket over himself, but then he felt too hot and kicked his foot, sending the entire blanket flying onto the carpet.

He even tugged irritably at the belt of his bathrobe, which was tightly knotted, and he couldn’t untie it, making him quite annoyed.

Young Master Gu, with his high stature, waved his hands and began giving orders: "Untie it."

Hua Hua thought to herself, Oh my god, bro, are you asking me to help you undress?

Isn’t he purposely making my heart flutter?

She deliberately avoided his drunken face, fearing her own restraint wouldn’t hold, she forcefully calmed herself and reached out to untie the robe, knowing he felt hot, she simply pulled the clothing apart, revealing his lean chest with thin beads of sweat forming like pearls that stuck to his skin.

Hua Hua’s eyes involuntarily flickered.

"Bro, are you hot? Should I get some water to wipe you down?" she asked.

He responded with a faint grunt, unable to hold back his complaint, "Hot."

Seeing this, Hua Hua walked into the bathroom, brought back a basin of cold water, soaked a towel, wrung it out, and by the time she returned to the room Gu Shaocheng had already drifted drunkenly into sleep, even turning over and snoring loudly on the Simmons.

"Bro, I’ll wipe you down."

When Hua Hua did these kinds of things, she was not at all awkward; instead, she was experienced and precise. There was a time when they lived together, and she often tended to her intoxicated elder brother.

Those were the years when he struggled fiercely, still unsteady in the Gu Family, before Third Brother Nan and Fourth Brother Yan had even entered their world, and the elder brother forbade his involvement in the Gu Family affairs. However, everyone knew that his brother cared most about him, knew that he was his brother’s weak spot. Many sought to exploit him as a way to manipulate his brother, so Gu always kept him close.

They shared meals and living quarters, and even in the Gu Family’s almost royal bedroom, where no one else was allowed to stay, he had lived for several years.

Originally, there was no separate side room in that bedroom, but it was modified just to accommodate him, turning another room into his very own space—Hua Hua’s room.

During those years, his brother often came home late at night, profoundly drunk, just falling into bed asleep, never bothering about taking a bath. It was always Hua Hua who brought hot water to wipe down his body, just like now.

Hua Hua took a deep breath—when did it start to change?

His brother’s position solidified, more money, more power, building many villas, and then he was asked to move out of the side room, given such a mansion instead.

At first, he thought his brother had reached an age where he needed a woman to warm his bed, and continuing to live in his chamber would surely be inconvenient when the time came—how awkward.

But that wasn’t it at all—his brother hadn’t had a woman by his side for years!

He just wanted to throw him out!

Perhaps the whim to build all those villas was just an excuse to move him out of his small side room?

Humph, don’t think he doesn’t know— who covets a mansion?

A vast, empty house where only he resided, enduring day after day, year after year, living in such a large house... any person should be happy, having such a good brother arranging everything, but why couldn’t he feel happy?

Yet Hua Hua always harbored a crushing sadness.

What’s the use of such a big, luxurious house when there’s no one to talk to, when he can no longer do things for his brother like he used to, when even wiping his body becomes a luxury!"""
