Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside

Chapter 1608 - 1610: Her Fearful Heart Instantly Calmed

"Alu, I’m going to Xiaoxiao’s house."

As Li Chuntao spoke, she was about to walk out. Alu was a bit anxious, "Miss..."

She was truly worried; she feared that Miss would go up the mountain again and be in danger.

"Don’t worry, I’ll be fine."

After saying this, Li Chuntao left. This time she really believed she would be fine because she wanted to find Yang Dong to go with her.

She was excited all along, feeling that the opportunity had come, completely forgetting the awkward scene with Yang Dong yesterday.

At this moment, whether Yang Dong would be willing to see her was uncertain.

Thus filled with excitement, she walked to the Yang Family’s doorstep.

But when she reached the entrance, she froze, because she remembered, remembered the incident last night when she almost kissed Yang Dong.

She was unsure about whether to go in or not.

But if she didn’t go in, didn’t find Yang Dong, didn’t let Yang Dong truly see, how could she expose Yang Xiaocui’s true colors?

Although after going up the mountain, she might not discover anything, or Yang Xiaocui and Yang Daniu might not be up to anything, she still didn’t want to miss this opportunity. What if it was true?

After much thought, if she couldn’t find Yang Dong, she would tell Xiaoxiao about it instead.

Or go up the mountain with Xiaoxiao to check out the situation. If Xiaoxiao saw something, as the daughter-in-law of the Yang Family, what she said would surely be believed by the family. Besides, she was planning to tell Xiaoxiao about how Yang Xiaocui tricked her into going up the mountain yesterday anyway.

Having made up her mind, Li Chuntao decided to enter the courtyard.

But before she could enter, she heard a voice coming from the courtyard, calling her.

"Is it Chuntao? Are you here to see our third daughter-in-law?"

It turned out that Yang Dong’s mother had seen her standing at the door. Li Chuntao smiled and said, "Auntie, yes, is Xiaoxiao home?"

"The third daughter-in-law and our fourth went to the back mountain. Didn’t our family buy the back of the mountain? We’re going to build a few simple houses there for someone to look after the mountain. I estimate they will be back in the afternoon. Do you have something urgent? I can ask her to find you when she returns?"

Li Chuntao didn’t expect Xiaoxiao to be away, but after thinking about it, Xiaoxiao hadn’t been to the academy these past few days and was probably busy. But this also gave Li Chuntao some news: that Yang Dong was currently at the back of the mountain.

What should she do now? Should she go by herself?

No, absolutely not.

She had a hard time dealing with just Yang Daniu, let alone adding Yang Xiaocui to the mix.

If both of them were on the mountain and discovered her, she would be doomed.

Besides, even if she discovered something shady between those two alone, it would be useless; her goal was to let Yang Dong know.

After much thought, she decided she should take her chance at the foot of the back mountain, to see if she could run into Xiaoxiao and Yang Dong. If not, she would return, especially since such dangerous incidents had occurred before, and she couldn’t go up the mountain alone anymore.

Having made her decision, she said, "Auntie, it’s nothing urgent. No need to tell Xiaoxiao, I’ll head back now."

Li Chuntao left just like that, not returning to the academy, but heading towards the back mountain instead.

On her solitary journey, Li Chuntao’s heart was hanging by a thread. Because after that incident, her courage had indeed dwindled, but fortunately, the road wasn’t devoid of people.

The back mountain was even further than Nanshan, and before she reached Nanshan, she saw a figure ahead.

Seeing that figure, her eyes lit up with joy, and her fearful heart was suddenly at ease.
