The whole family was dumbfounded. What on earth was happening? Hadn’t they just said that Li Fugui would soon realize he had mistaken someone else for his acquaintance?
Upon seeing this, Yang Ming immediately went to pull Li Fugui away, "She’s not Xiaotian, you’ve got the wrong person."
Xiaoxiao was scared half to death by this situation. If Yang Qiu got so frightened that he became ill, it could turn the entire household upside down. Thankfully, for now, Yang Qiu seemed normal.
Li Fugui, as if he hadn’t heard Yang Ming’s words, continued to drag Yang Qiu outside. "I’m not seeking revenge anymore, I’ll take you away, let’s leave this place, I don’t want to be apart from you, let’s go far away from them and never come back."
Yang Qiu was startled by this unexpected development, then hurriedly struggled free, "Who are you? Let go of me."
"I’m sorry, I’m sorry, did I hurt you? Let me see." Li Fugui immediately loosened his grip and turned to check her for injuries, worried that he might have hurt her.
Seeing she was all right, he continued, "Xiaotian, let’s go, I’ll take you away from here."
"I’m not called Xiaotian, I’m called Yang Qiu." Yang Qiu did not realize this man was not mentally stable; she just thought he had mistaken her for someone else and immediately denied it.
But Li Fugui didn’t believe a word Yang Qiu said. "Have you been hiding your true name?"
"I haven’t changed my name, I am Yang Qiu, this is my home." Yang Qiu continued to explain very politely and patiently to Li Fugui.
"Okay, okay, Yang Qiu is a good name, from now on we’ll go by Yang Qiu. If you want to stay here, then I’ll stay with you."
Seeing the interaction between the two, everyone was at a loss for what to do next. Since Yang Ming had brought this man, everyone looked at him in unison.
Xiaoxiao came over to Yang Ming’s side and whispered, "Yang Ming, what do we do now? Li Fugui seems to have mistaken Yang Qiu for Xiaotian."
"It’s fine, let’s all have dinner first."
"..." What kind of situation is this? Seeing Yang Ming’s demeanor, he didn’t seem to be in a hurry. Could it be that they want Yang Qiu to pretend to be Xiaotian to treat Li Fugui’s condition?
As Yang Ming and Xiaoxiao were the pillars of the household, and both seemed to think it was not a big issue, the family didn’t say anything further. They quickly went to serve the meal, getting ready to eat.
Xiaoxiao also went to help serve the meal, only to notice her sister-in-law casting a meaningful glance at her, "Look, didn’t I tell you something would go wrong?"
"..." How could she have anticipated such a turn of events? Li Fugui hadn’t taken anyone else for Xiaotian, so why did he change his tune with Yang Qiu? She was completely baffled.
After they served the meal, Li Fugui kept putting food on Yang Qiu’s plate, "Xiaoqiu, eat up, be careful not to scald yourself."
"..." He changed how he addressed her quickly, calling her with such familiarity.
Yang Qiu didn’t know what to do and looked to her older brother for help. Yang Ming nodded, and only then did Yang Qiu keep silent and start eating.
While eating, they heard Li Fugui offer, "Whatever you want to eat, I’ll make it for you tomorrow."
"..." Was this the same Li Fugui they knew? The sharp-tongued, proud Li Fugui? He seemed to have turned into a perfect gentleman.
Had Li Fugui and Xiaotian always interacted ? It felt like the family was being force-fed an unpleasant dose of affection.
Watching the scene unfold, it was nothing like Xiaoxiao had imagined. If he had been abandoned as the Little Maid suggested, his reaction after finding her shouldn’t have been . Xiaoxiao was completely bewildered by Li Fugui’s behavior.
