Why did he encounter such a deadly accident?
Huo Tingrui felt really bad in his heart. He could not imagine what his younger brother was going through right now.
“He had already given up all hope for recovery, but when he realized there was a high chance that the medical genius, Lin, would treat him...”
Before Tong Yu finished his sentence, Huo Tingrui interrupted him when he mentioned Lin. “Wait, are you talking about Lin?”
Tong Yu looked at him and nodded. Then he continued speaking with a complicated feeling. “We only just found out that Lin is your third brother.”
Huo Tingrui pursed his lips and explained sheepishly. “Xiang was too busy, and Yulin has always stayed abroad. Since both are so busy with their careers, it’s natural that there is distance between them, and they don’t know each other well. I am also guilty of the same thing. I only found out that his English name was Lin after he won those medical awards.”
Tong Yu could not help recollecting what it was like when he first met Huo Xiang. He said, “When Huo Xiang first entered the industry, he never talked about his family. I almost thought he was an orphan.”
Huo Tingrui smiled and said, “He is the most aloof person in the family.”
He persisted in standing on his own feet to this day.
“But his fans think he’s a warm and innocent boy,” sighed Tong Yu.
“Fate plays cruel tricks on us...”
Huo Tingrui asked him gravely. “You were saying that Yulin can treat Xiang’s illness, right?”
“We thought he could, but... according to the tests, Lin told us that he won’t be able to do strenuous activity in the future,” said Tong Yu with a sad smile.
Huo Tingrui frowned and said, “So he has abandoned himself to despair?”
Tong Yu nodded. Huo Tingrui certainly knew Huo Xiang’s temperament the best.
“I told him that it’s okay if he can’t dance. He can still go on singing, but he said song without dance is just a soulless performance. After he heard Lin’s diagnosis, he isolated himself and didn’t even want to go for the operation. I can’t convince him, and I’m worried the delay will cause further damage to his spine. I had no choice but to tell you about it. Can you please convince him to undergo the operation?”
Huo Tingrui gazed out the window. Then he said with a deep voice, “I get it. Huo Xiang is my brother. I won’t let him give up no matter what.”
Tong Yu felt a lot calmer after he heard Huo Tingrui’s promise.
He could only hope it would work.
The car reached a European style manor in about 30 minutes. The manor had an outstanding security system. In order to enter, many procedures had to be completed.
The manor belonged to Lin, Huo Yulin. This was his private residence.
It was Huo Tingrui’s first time here as well. When he saw the advanced appliances and smart robot butler, he could not help marvelling at them. It was as though he had entered a different world with exceptionally high technology.
“Brother Tingrui, sorry for not picking you up. I was busy.”
Huo Yulin had just gotten home from the research inst.i.tute. He found out that Huo Tingrui had come to Country M after reading Tong Yu’s text.
There was frustration in his eyes as he looked at Huo Tingrui. His handsome face was unusually fair. It was the kind of complexion which one got by staying indoors all the time.
Huo Tingrui had not seen this younger brother for years. He walked over and reached out to hug Huo Yulin. In an emotional voice, he said, “Long time no see, Yulin.”
