Chapter 1252: Starting A Family

Ou Ming hand lingered on Yu Lili’s waist. His eyes never left hers.

Yu Lili sensed that Ou Ming was testing the waters. She placed her hand over his and pressed down, huffing, “You can just hurt for all I care! You’re always so frivolous!”

“Not at all. I’m so innocent. Every time I tell a lie, my face will redden and my heartbeat will race. Touch it if you don’t believe me.” As he spoke, he took Yu Lili’s hand and laid it on top of his chest. “It’s beating as per normal. That means I’m telling the truth.”

Yu Lili was tickled by his shameless words and burst out laughing. She patted him and remarked, “Your face will redden and your heartbeat will race? Whom are you trying to tease?”

Ou Ming saw that she was finally smiling. His face couldn’t resist breaking out in a smile of his own.

“Other than you, I have no one else to tease.” He reached his hand out and hugged her tightly. “I don’t know what kind of person I am in your heart, but my feelings for you are true and sincere. Yu Lili, I want to marry you. I want to be with you forever.”

His voice was low when he made the declaration. It made Yu Lili’s heart skip a beat. She looked up at him.

In the dark, his eyes were especially bright. Even if the eyes couldn’t see what was in front, Yu Lili could still sense the heat of his gaze. It was scorching.

“Do you know… I really envy Second Brother, Li Sicheng,” Ou Ming said. “He faked his death for many years. When he returned, his family was still there. His wife was still there. She had even given birth to a set of twins for him. His wife had seemed useless and incompetent. In the four years that Li Sicheng was gone, she had single-handedly managed the children and the huge company…”

Yu Lili lowered her eyes and nodded her head. “Qianci is indeed formidable.”

She had always been.

Su Qianci looked weak and delicate. On the inside, she was tougher than anyone else. She envied her. She had always envied her.

“Their whole family is formidable.” Ou Ming stoked Yu Lili’s head and lowered his voice. “The reason why Li Sicheng dared to do that was because he knew that he could return anytime. Both his family and his wife would always be waiting for him.”

Yu Lili reached out and held on to his waist. “There are three brothers in their family while you are the only offspring of yours. Don’t do what he did. It’s too dangerous.”

“Yeah. Even if I wanted to do that, I’d need to start a family first,” Ou Ming said.

Start a family. Yu Lili heard it clearly and locked it in her heart. Deep inside, she was still feeling a little empty.

She closed her eyes and burrowed into Ou Ming’s embrace. With a pat on his back, she said, “Let’s go to sleep.”

It was rare that Ou Ming didn’t get frisky. Instead, he held on to her and closed his eyes.

It was a night without dreams.

When Yu Lili awoke, the first sight that greeted her was that of Ou Ming’s bare chest. She gently lifted his hand away and tiptoed quietly to the bathroom.

By the time she had finished washing up, Ou Ming was awake.

“Good morning.” He seemed to be in an especially good mood. His smile was shining as brightly as the sun.

Yu Lili glanced at him and made a sound of acknowledgement. She brought his slippers over to him and said, “I’ve squeezed out the toothpaste for you. Your razor and aftershave have also been prepared. Go ahead.”

Ou Ming was particularly obedient. He compliantly went to the bathroom to brush his teeth and wash his face.

After the both of them had changed their clothes, they made their way to the hotel Shen Zhilie was at. They retrieved their luggage and met up with Shen Zhilie and Old Mrs. Shen.

When Old Mrs. Shen saw Yu Lili standing with Ou Ming, she blinked her eyes and immediately called out while waving animatedly, “Hi, Lili!”
