Chapter 1816: Chapter 1818: He’s Testing My Reaction

But he still wanted to ask what day Xiaotian’s child was born.

Could it be his child.

"How many months is the baby now, what day was she born?"

This kind of question made Yang Ming start to get wary, and while he spoke he deliberately watched Li Fugui’s expression.

"The fifteenth of the eleventh month!"

Those words made Li Fugui’s eyes narrow. The fifteenth of the eleventh month, the fifteenth of the eleventh month... the timing didn’t seem to quite match, but it was also roughly there. He actually wasn’t sure, and Xiaotian had gone off with Guo Feng on the second day after being with him.

Just as he was spacing out a little, he heard Yang Ming continue, "Little Yueyue looks quite like Xiaotian, and quite like Guo Feng too, she’s got the best of both of them, she’s really pretty."

Li Fugui kept spacing out. She looks like Guo Feng? Not like him?

But then he thought it through: although a child wouldn’t lie, she’s so little, what can she really tell about who she looks like!

Maybe he really was overthinking it. If the child were his, even if Guo Feng was shielding her, Lady Guo and Master Guo wouldn’t let something like that happen.

"Is that so, that’s good." He didn’t know what else he could say, so he could only squeeze out those few words.

Seeing that Li Fugui seemed a bit down, Yang Ming advised, "Li Fugui, some things, when it’s time to let go, you have to let go. You can’t be too stubborn about it!"

"I know, I’ve already let go."

What else could he even do?

Xiaotian hadn’t chosen him. If she had chosen him, then even if the child wasn’t his, he would still take her away without hesitation.

After that the two didn’t say anything more, and Yang Ming went back inside.

As soon as he stepped out of the room, Yang Ming showed a look of apology toward Li Fugui.

He had just been able to tell what Li Fugui meant.

He might really have shared a bed with Xiaotian, so he was trying to confirm the child’s birthday!

Yang Ming felt this was a serious matter. For Xiaotian, no matter whose child it is, if anything happened with someone before marriage, it would affect her reputation.

Besides, she had chosen to be with Guo Feng back then, and now their family life was still fairly happy and complete.

This kind of thing really shouldn’t be brought up again. It’s bad for everyone.

To keep Li Fugui from stirring up trouble, he deliberately pushed the child’s birth date back ten days!

Right now that was all he could do; as for later, he’d see how things went.

As soon as he went back in, Xiaoxiao opened her mouth and asked, "What did he call you over for?"

"What else? Asked how Xiaotian’s doing. I told him Xiaotian’s doing pretty well, and told him not to be so hung up anymore."

Hearing that, Xiaoxiao asked again, "Did you sound him out at all?"

"I didn’t sound him out, he was sounding me out, asking about Little Yueyue’s birth date!"

Hearing that, Xiaoxiao was utterly shocked, and at the same time full of gossip, "So that means Little Yueyue might possibly..."

Before the words were out, Yang Ming cut her off, "Don’t talk nonsense. If it really were so, the whole world would be in uproar. I muddled through it, pushed Little Liufu’s birth date back ten days. As for what happens down the line, we’ll see then!"

"..."

Xiaoxiao really wanted to say that pushing it back ten days was basically useless; pushing it back a month or two might do something.

It’s not like giving birth has to be exactly ten full months, and you’d have to count from when her period came, calculate the days, and on top of that babies can come early or late and all that.

But if she said all that, Yang Ming probably wouldn’t understand. She herself didn’t really understand it either, so she just held back.

She figured this could only be left to fate. Whether it’s true or not, their guessing doesn’t matter; it depends on whether the Guo Family people start guessing or not.
