Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside-Chapter 1154 - 1156: Witnessed with My Own Eyes
Guo Feng’s eyes were full of Xiaotian, so he didn’t notice Li Fugui.
He placed the fruit platter on the stone table and sat down beside Xiaotian.
He picked up a plum from the platter and spoke softly, "Eat this first, it’s sweet and sour."
Xiaotian smiled and accepted the plum.
Guo Feng didn’t eat along but began peeling grapes from the platter.
Soon, peeled grapes were placed into a small bowl.
Guo Feng passed the bowl over, speaking indulgently, "It’s all peeled, go ahead and eat, your favorite, the sweet and sour ones."
The bowl thoughtfully came with a spoon for Xiaotian to use for the grapes.
Xiaotian took the bowl, saying, "Thank you."
She indeed favored sweet and sour fruits since her pregnancy, so she started eating.
While Xiaotian was eating the fruit, Guo Feng thoughtfully fanned Xiaotian.
Summer was already stuffy, and mosquitoes were around, so fanning was for cooling as well as mosquito repellent.
Faced with such care from Guo Feng, Xiaotian felt a bit embarrassed and guilty, "Stop fanning, you should eat something too!"
With that, she picked a plum from the platter and handed it to Guo Feng.
Guo Feng took the plum Xiaotian handed over with a smile and ate it happily.
Yet, the hand that was fanning did not stop.
"You eat, I’ll fan, so both of us stay cool."
Though he said so, the angle of the fan was obviously aimed at Xiaotian, fanning her.
Li Fugui, standing there, couldn’t accept what he saw.
He was already heartbroken hearing from others about how good Guo Feng was to Xiaotian.
Now witnessing such a scene with his own eyes, the rumors were indeed true, Guo Feng was truly good to Xiaotian, insanely good.
He didn’t even know if he could reach such a level as Guo Feng.
Seeing their interaction, he inexplicably felt like he was the spare wheel.
This Guo Feng had better looks, a better family, and was good to Xiaotian.
What did he have to compare to him?
He was merely a cook now, he couldn’t compare in anything.
At this moment, Li Fugui felt utterly despondent, standing there, watching Xiaotian being cared for by another man, his eyes reddened.
Seeing the one he loved but unable to call to her was suffocating.
Though such a scene was brutal for him, he didn’t want to leave because he wanted to see her one more time, fearing that if he left, he might never see her again.
Guo Feng continued fanning and telling stories to amuse Xiaotian.
The tales were ones he heard from the Joy Grand Theater; he planned to take Xiaotian there, but she never went.
Since coming to the Guo Family, Xiaotian had been so reserved, somewhat melancholic, and knowing Li Fugui would come today made her mood worse.
Guo Feng kept telling stories until finally, Xiaotian wore a genuine smile.
Seeing this, Guo Feng guffawed as well.
The scene looked particularly warm.
Amidst their delighted laughter, Xiaotian turned her head and saw Li Fugui.
Her eyes widened instantly, the smile vanished from her face; dinner had been over for so long, why hadn’t he left?
Clearly smiling moments ago, stopping as soon as she saw him, made Li Fugui’s heart ache greatly.
At this time, Guo Feng also noticed Xiaotian’s odd behavior, so he turned around and saw Li Fugui standing there looking this way.
