Chapter 1188 - Go Sleep On The Overpass Then
“Not a chance in hell!” Yu Lili smacked him hard on the back of his hand. “Aren’t you shameless? Do you know who I am? Let me just ask you this, does your face hurt?”
How could he not know? But…
He just wanted to be with her very much. He wanted it so much that he had snuck out without even bothering to change his clothes. The moment he had heard that she was there, he used all the money he had in his wallet to get someone to take him.
Upon arriving, he had forgotten to consider the fact that he didn’t know exactly where she was or how to find her. So, he had no choice but to stay put in the police station and have the policemen help him.
When he heard what she said, Ou Ming kept his mouth shut. He soon nudged her hand and asked, “Can we have something to eat first? I’m very hungry?”
“Miss, should I continue to process the check-in?” the receptionist asked.
“No!”
“Yes!”
Both Yu Lili and Ou Ming answered at the same time.
Yu Lili turned her head and glared at Ou Ming. He continued staring vacantly ahead, without much change in expression.
“So, should I or should I not?” the receptionist asked exasperatedly. Yu Lili and Ou Ming were driving her crazy.
Yu Lili planted her face into her palm. “Just process it.”
“If you won’t stay with me, I won’t stay here,” Ou Ming stated unequivocally as he engaged in a battle of wills with Yu Lili.
Yu Lili was at a loss of what to do. She narrowed her eyes and asked, “If you won’t stay here, are you going to sleep on the overpass?”
Ou Ming answered without any hesitation, “That’s fine, too!”
“You’re crazy!” Yu Lili swung her hand away. “Go sleep on the overpass then! My good intentions were really wasted on a dog!” Most importantly, this dog was insatiable.
“Go ahead and insult me,” Ou Ming said grudgingly. “I’m so hungry that I don’t have any strength to argue with you.”
Yu Lili felt ready for sainthood. She looked down and saw her arm in his vice-grip. It didn’t seem at all like the guy was lacking in strength. But, her conscience won out in the end. She couldn’t bring herself to leave him behind. With an apologetic smile at the receptionist, she took Ou Ming’s identity card back.
The moment they stepped outside, the cold chilled Yu Lili to her bone. It was so cold.
She took Ou Ming with her in search of an eatery that was still operating at that late hour and entered. They didn’t order hotpot.
Yu Lili ordered a bowl of hot soup and some dessert, as well as some simple dishes. She had Ou Ming eat by himself.
Ou Ming couldn’t see and only possessed the faculties of one hand. With the chopsticks in hand, he fumbled around for quite a bit before finally succeeding in picking his food up.
Yu Lili ignored him completely. She had her dessert and then leaned back on the seat and took out her cell phone.
Only then did she realize that she had plenty of missed calls from Ye Qianqian. Her cell phone must have been turned to silent mode without her knowledge. There hadn’t even been any vibration.
Yu Lili picked the phone up and texted a reply, telling her that a friend had called her out without any prior warning and they were now having supper. She sent an emoji along with her text message, only to have Ye Qianqian reply with the picture of a middle finger.
Ou Ming drank a bowl of soup and had a few mouthfuls of rice before setting his chopsticks down.
Yu Lili’s head was bowed in concentration at her phone, but she realized it immediately when he put his chopsticks down. She looked up with narrowed her eyes and asked offhandedly, “You’re full?”
Ou Ming’s expression remained neutral as he replied, “White rice on its own is bland.”
“There are dishes in front of you,” she said.
They were all of Ou Ming’s favorite dishes and had been prepared well. However, Ou Ming’s eyes remained unfocused and stared blankly ahead as he answered, “I can’t see them.”
His attitude infuriated Yu Lili. In annoyance, she snapped, “Just stick your chopsticks out and you’ll be able to reach them! They’re right in front of you! So what if you can’t see? Are your hands not working, too?”
