Chapter 1275 - You’re Back Together With That Yu Woman Again, Aren’t You?
Another wedding present? Yu Lili turned her heard to look. Her face had reddened. She managed to calm down somewhat and asked, “Why do you have so many wedding presents?”
“Eh…” Ou Ming thought about it for a while and replied, “Just treat it as a make-up present for the delayed wedding ceremony.”
“Wedding ceremony…” Yu Lili was surprised.
“Yes. The wedding ceremony.” Ou Ming tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear. “Second Brother had his wedding ceremony held all the way in Ireland. I heard that for his anniversary, he’s intending to go to Venice. Tch! That rascal is being really flamboyant!”
His statement carried a hint of envy, jealousy, and resentment all rolled up in one. But, on Ou Ming’s face was pure envy. “However, from now on, I’m also someone who has a wife! Is there anywhere in particular that you would like to go?”
“I’d like to go to…” A smile appeared on Yu Lili’s face. “I haven’t thought of it yet. I’ll tell you about it when I do.”
It was very likely that they would end up not having a wedding ceremony at all. Before Ou Ming had brought it up, Yu Lili had never even thought about it. Something like a wedding ceremony was a luxury in her books.
“Alright.” Ou Ming gazed at her. He had her turn her head and said. “Look there.”
The computer-generated Ou Ming and Yu Lili were holding hands. Both of them were each equipped with mountain-climbing gear and were heading up the mountain. Yu Lili looked like she was having a hard time with it.
“Mountain climbing?” Yu Lili longingly asked. “We’ve never gone mountain-climbing before. It looks fun.”
“When we’ve settled everything here, we’ll be able to do anything we want to.” Ou Ming pulled Yu Lili along and walked toward their alter-egos. Yu Lili realized that the scenery followed the cue of their footsteps. The distance neared as they stepped forward.
It was really as if they were climbing a mountain. The only difference was that while it looked as if Yu Lili was balancing on a boulder, she was in fact standing on flat ground.
“Ou Ming, is what we’re doing inappropriate?” Yu Lili’s heart began to feel uneasy. “We did this behind your mother’s back. If your mother were to find out…”
“At most, I’ll get beaten by my dad,” Ou Ming said without much concern. “It’s not as if he’s never hit me before anyway.”
“Isn’t your mother’s body quite frail?” Yu Lili asked.
“It’ll be fine. Thanks to Second Brother, I’ve managed to decipher Shen Luo’an’s prescription formula,” Ou Ming said. “She won’t die so soon. Don’t worry too much about it. Just wait for my good news.”
“OK…” Yu Lili was still feeling unsettled. She gazed off into the distance at their computer-generated selves and felt her sense of yearning and longing intensify.
After their shower, Yu Lili was in the midst of helping Ou Ming dry his hair when his cell phone rang. He reached for it and saw that the caller was his mother.
“Answer it.” Yu Lili switched off the hairdryer and stroked his hair.
Ou Ming answered the call, “Mom.”
“Why aren’t you back yet, Xiao Ou?” His mother sounded anxious. “I’ve been waiting for you for such a long time! Even if you’re out, you should know your limits! How can you still be staying out at this hour? What are you thinking?”
“I won’t be coming back tonight,” Ou Ming said. “I’m spending the night out.”
The moment she heard that, Jiao Ziqing immediately guessed the reason and asked, “You’re back together with that Yu woman again, aren’t you?”
“Yeah,” Ou Ming didn’t avoid it at all. He closed his eyes and leaned back. “I’ve been back together with her for some time already. The reason I went to Fujian was solely to look for her. You must have known that, Mom.”
Jiao Ziqing was infuriated when she heard that. “Why are you so darn useless? Just what spell has that woman cast over you that you’d keep holding on to her so relentlessly?”
