Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside-Chapter 1137 - 1139: Give Me a Little More Time

"Young Madam, be careful of the threshold."

The Little Maid supported Xiaotian, reminding her as she helped, showing just how well Xiaotian was cared for in the Guo Mansion.

With the maid’s assistance, Xiaotian returned to her bedroom.

Once she reached her bedroom, she could no longer control her emotions, and tears silently fell.

She never dared to hope that one day, she could see him again.

Did she disappoint him with her behavior just now?

Seeing her heavily pregnant, married as another man’s wife, he must have been heartbroken.

With her current status, he probably won’t ever come back with a broken heart.

Tears flowed uncontrollably, and her thoughts drifted far, far away.

Her heart, which had gradually died, seemed to beat once more at the sight of him.

She couldn’t help but miss him, couldn’t help but want to see him.

But she clearly knew that she mustn’t do that.

She couldn’t betray the Guo Family who had treated her so well.

As for her and him, she knew even more clearly that it was no longer possible between them.

She didn’t know how much she had cried or how much time had passed.

Until she heard the door open, she quickly wiped away the traces of tears, trying not to let anyone notice anything unusual. She knew it was Guo Feng returning.

"You’re back!" she said as she stood up, but having sat still for so long, her legs were numb, and she almost lost her balance.

As Guo Feng entered the room, he saw Xiaotian about to fall, and he quickly rushed over to support her, saying, "What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Should we call for a doctor?"

Guo Feng’s series of concerned questions filled Xiaotian’s heart with guilt. Guo Feng was truly wonderful, flawless, yet she...

"I’m fine, it’s just numbness in my legs, no need for a doctor," Xiaotian said after sitting down.

"Numb legs? Let me massage them for you," Guo Feng said, reaching to rub Xiaotian’s legs.

But Xiaotian instinctively shifted her body, avoiding Guo Feng’s hands.

A flash of disappointment crossed Guo Feng’s eyes. How could he not understand her actions? She was rejecting his touch, and after months, he still hadn’t broken through her icy heart.

He said somewhat helplessly, "I won’t touch you. You can massage them yourself."

Xiaotian sat there, with her big belly, struggling to massage her calves.

Her heart felt uneasy as she repeatedly hurt the good person in front of her. She was very sorry, but she really wasn’t ready, "I’m sorry, brother."

Guo Feng couldn’t count how many times he’d heard such words. Apologies weren’t what he wanted. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Xiaotian say, "Give me a little more time."

These words made Guo Feng’s heart leap for joy. In the past few months, Xiaotian had never said anything like this; it was the first time. Had she finally come to terms?

He nodded excitedly, "Yes, no matter how long it takes, I’ll wait."

Xiaotian smiled slightly, then lowered her head, continued to massage her legs, hiding her desolate expression.

Her heart was a chaotic mess, and she didn’t even know what she was saying.

Perhaps this was the best for everyone.

"Thank you, brother!"

In truth, every time Xiaotian called him brother, it pricked Guo Feng’s heart. He longed for her to call him husband instead of brother, "Don’t think too much, just focus on waiting for the child to be born safely."

He thought he would wait for the day she would call him husband.
