Chapter 1099

His tone was tinged with a hint of grievance as if he were a spoiled child . When Yu Lili heard that, she turned her head toward him in surprise .

She was met with Ou Ming’s intense stare . His eyes were deep, bright, and shimmering . They were so beautiful that Yu Lili could get lost in them .

Ou Ming buried his face further into her neck and complained, “My legs are sore . Massage them for me . ”

“How did they get stolen?”

“I don’t know . I put them in the pocket of my trench coat . I only found out that they were missing when I wanted to give you a call . ” Ou Ming’s voice rumbled . “It’s a good thing that I have a good memory . I remembered that you live here and walked for over 20 minutes . I didn’t expect to arrive earlier than you . ”

Yu Lili was about to speak when Ou Ming pulled her hand and put it on his upper thigh . In the voice of a little kid, he whined, “They’re sore . ”

Yu Lili’s temper abated . She pulled her hand back and rolled her eyes at him . Then she led him into the room .

Yu Lili closed the door and walked in . She shook her hands to loosen the muscles and ordered Ou Ming, “Lie down . I’ll massage them for you . ”

“Alright!” A grin escaped Ou Ming’s lips . He pulled Yu Lili’s pillow over after he removed his suit and jacket; then he lay down .

Yu Lili removed her outer coat as well; then she helped him remove his socks and started massaging his legs .

Ou Ming was initially exaggerating his actions to earn some pity from Yu Lili, but it turned out that Yu Lili gave a good massage after all .

“That feels nice . ” Ou Ming closed his eyes and faced her .

Yu Lili’s head was bowed, and her face looked undeniably serious .

Her brows were creased in concentration, and her lips were pursed tightly . The warm light in the room shone on her gently made-up face, highlighting her beauty and serenity .

She was so beautiful . This Yu Lili looked even more beautiful than before .

Yu Lili felt his eyes on her . She raised her eyes to look at him then bent down again . She continued the massage as she said, “I worked in a massage parlor before when I was in the capital . ”

Ou Ming wasn’t aware of that, and he queried in astonishment, “Then why did you stop?”

“The business at the massage parlor wasn’t good, so it closed down . That’s when I went to be an accountant . ” As she spoke, she crossed her legs and proceeded to massage Ou Ming’s shins .

Ou Ming could tell that she’d had a hard time just from hearing the story, and his heart ached for her . He reached his hands out and held her hands in his, and her actions slowed to a stop .

She looked up and saw the concern in Ou Ming’s face .

Ou Ming pulled her forward until she was half leaning on his chest . He embraced her and said, “In future, you’ll just stay at home and draw . ”

“I’m doing nothing but drawing now too . ” Yu Lili placed both hands on his chest and rose her eyes to meet his . “My life now is a lot better than before . ”

Even without you, I’ll still live . Even without you, I’ll still live a good life . There is nothing I can’t face . Even if we have to leave each other, we’ll live .

Ou Ming looked at her protectively and stroked her hair gently .

Yu Lili’s hair grew very quickly; it was now down to her neck . Her bangs were also brushing against her brows, making her face look really small and slim .

“It’ll be even better in the future, I promise . ”

The corners of Yu Lili’s mouth rose when she heard that . She surged her body forward and dipped her head down to kiss him on his lips .

Ou Ming tightened his grip on her hand and pulled her even closer into his body . He lifted his other hand and cupped her head, locking her in his kiss . He turned and rolled on top of her, and opening her mouth with practiced ease, his tongue tangled with hers .
