Chapter 1867 - 1869: Both False and True
Facing this situation, finally, the master of the Guo Family spoke up, "Indeed, your Yang Family has wronged our Guo Family, bringing shame upon us."
"I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I apologize on behalf of my sister and our Yang Family," Yang Qiu pleaded earnestly.
At this point, the mistress of the Guo Family said, "It was your sister who felt indebted to my son and thus left with the child. As for where she went, we are not aware. Isn’t your Yang Family quite capable? Go find her yourself."
Upon hearing this, Guo Feng couldn’t deny feeling hurt and disappointed. Even now, his mother was still denying the truth. He shouted angrily, "Mother, must I clarify everything? What did you do after I left for the other courtyard?"
Hearing this, the mistress of the Guo Family furrowed her brows. Who in the other courtyard overheard?
With no time to dwell, she saw Yang Qiu get up from the ground and speak respectfully, "Master Guo, Mistress Guo, young master Guo, thank you for your hospitality. With such an incident, I shouldn’t stay any longer, I will take my leave now."
After speaking, Yang Qiu left dispiritedly.
Seeing Yang Qiu leave, Guo Feng immediately followed, "Yang Qiu, it’s so late, where are you going? If something happens to you, how will I explain to your sister?"
"Ha? My sister is gone, what is there left to explain?" Yang Qiu said sardonically to Guo Feng, then headed for the door.
Guo Feng stood there, stunned by these sarcastic words, and by the time he regained his senses, he realized Yang Qiu had disappeared.
He anxiously went to find Wang Xiangxiang.
The Guo Family’s guest rooms were many, and Wang Xiangxiang and Yang Qiu were placed in separate rooms, so Wang Xiangxiang was completely unaware of what transpired outside.
Upon hearing the strong and urgent knocks at the door, and Guo Feng’s anxious voice saying, "Xiangxiang, Xiangxiang, open the door quickly."
Only then did Wang Xiangxiang get up to open the door, "What’s going on here?"
"Xiangxiang, come out quickly, Yang Qiu has left. I don’t know where she could go in Lin County. You’ve spent more time with her, surely you know where she might head."
Hearing this, Wang Xiangxiang furrowed her brow and hurriedly shut the door, saying from inside, "Let me put on my clothes, I’ll be right out."
Wang Xiangxiang was also in a panic at the moment; Yang Qiu left, and if anything untoward happened, it could be disastrous. She quickly dressed and went out, leaving the Guo Mansion with Guo Feng, asking while walking, "What exactly happened? How come she just left?"
Guo Feng could only disclose to Wang Xiangxiang all about Xiaotian and her mother leaving, what Yang Qiu heard.
Upon hearing this, Wang Xiangxiang was shocked, "You really had a fake marriage?"
"Fake and not fake, real and not real," Guo Feng said helplessly.
"What do you mean by that, was it fake or real?"
"We were truly married, but never had the consummation."
This statement made Wang Xiangxiang’s eyes widen, "So Little Yueyue is actually Li Fugui’s child?"
Guo Feng remained silent but implicitly acknowledged.
Seeing Guo Feng’s heartbroken expression, Wang Xiangxiang did not wish to demoralize him further, but at this point, he really did need some awakening.
"Brother."
Hearing the word ’Brother’ surprised Guo Feng immensely; he looked up with puzzlement at Wang Xiangxiang; Xiangxiang had never called him brother before.
Wang Xiangxiang began to speak, "This is the first time I’m calling you brother, because I truly consider you as family, and I want to share some heartfelt words with you."
