Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside-Chapter 1188 - 1190: I Lost That Chain Again

Guo Feng was indeed disappointed; he didn’t expect Xiaotian’s reaction to still be so intense.

He really didn’t mean anything by it; he just wanted to hold her hand, just wanted to kiss her cheek.

As for anything further, he really hadn’t thought about it, especially since they were in the car, and besides, she was pregnant.

But even such a small request was completely rejected.

He was quite desperate, not knowing how long he would have to wait for Xiaotian to accept him.

He tried to act nonchalant, but it was impossible; the disappointment was still evident on his face.

Just then, he heard Xiaotian’s voice, "Brother, could you, could you wait until I give birth."

These words turned his disappointed expression into one of surprise; last time, she said to give her time, and this time, there was finally a deadline.

He could feel Xiaotian changing little by little. He said the same words as last time, "Um, no matter how long it takes, I will wait."

Hearing these words again, Xiaotian felt relieved yet more guilty. She wasn’t sure how long her body could hold on; she knew very well that things were impossible with Li Fugui.

The carriage soon arrived at the Guo Mansion.

After washing up, they lay down. As they did, Guo Feng remembered the speculation at the Han Family and asked, "Wife, why haven’t I seen your necklace?"

"That necklace, I lost it again." Xiaotian hadn’t expected Guo Feng to ask about it; this was the only way she could answer. She couldn’t very well say she left it with Li Fugui.

"Lost it? Where did you lose it? I’ll send someone to look for it; after all, it’s the only thing that connects you to your family."

"I don’t know where I lost it. Lost is lost, no need to look for it."

"..." Xiaotian’s words seemed odd to Guo Feng. He vividly remembered the last time Xiaotian lost the necklace, she cried for a long time and nagged him incessantly. She said it was the proof of her meeting her family, that it couldn’t be lost and had to be found. Now, she said not to look for it. "Wife, do you want to find your family?"

"I don’t." Xiaotian had cherished that necklace since she was little, but she never thought about finding her family because she believed she was abandoned.

But now, she had news of her family, yet she wasn’t ready to meet them. She couldn’t tell Guo Feng either.

"Wife, I mean, if, if I help you, maybe we can find your family? Do you want to find them?"

Xiaotian felt like Guo Feng was acting strangely today. Did he know something? "Even if we found them, I might not have the courage to meet them."

Xiaotian’s words made Guo Feng’s heartache; thinking about it, it’s true, if one day she suddenly found her family, who would be able to face it so calmly?

Guo Feng initially thought maybe he could directly ask Yang Qiu or the Yang Family about the relationship between Xiaotian and the Yang Family.

But seeing Xiaotian so resistant now, he couldn’t be so direct; he thought it better to learn indirectly.

If they really were Xiaotian’s family, and he let them know of her existence without her permission, and if her family came looking for her, how would Xiaotian face such a situation? Moreover, she was pregnant — what if she couldn’t handle it?

Both Guo Feng and Li Fugui were concerned about Xiaotian’s feelings, so they chose to investigate discreetly first. The most direct method was to find Wang Xiangxiang.
