Chapter 1118

Ou Ming’s words kept on replaying in her mind .

While he was speaking, his uninjured hand held on to her shoulder and gave it a squeeze . His voice was heavy and rough like sand, and low and hesitant . It was as if it had taken him a lot of courage to pose the question .

In addition to Yu Lili, even Wen Fenglin could undoubtedly sense Ou Ming’s nervousness . When Wen Fenglin witnessed this, his eyes darkened . Seeing Ou Ming reduced to this made him feel despondent for him .

The backgrounds of these two lovers differed too greatly, resulting in their suffering . When all was said and done, Ou Ming didn’t have much confidence in Yu Lili either . That was the true reason why he told Jiao Ziqing not to tell her anything .

On one hand, it was possible that he didn’t want her to worry . On the other hand, it was likely that he was worried she wouldn’t stay with him .

Wen Fenglin looked at the couple in front of him who he treated as his own children . It was a complicated situation . But, wasn’t he just like them then? They were destined for tragedy because of their differences .

When Yu Lili heard Ou Ming’s question, she turned to face him . His eyes were empty and lifeless . The pair of bright and enigmatic eyes of the past had ceased to exist . And, they might never see again .

Yu Lili’s heart ached . Her eyes began to glisten . Gently covering his hand with her own, she said, “Ou Ming, if it hadn’t been for you forcing me to live on, I would probably be dead many times over by now . ”

During that period, Yu Lili had been so depressed that she’d lost the desire to live . It was Ou Ming who had literally pulled her out of hell’s door .

Wen Fenglin was not aware of that aspect of their history . He gave Yu Lili a sidelong glance when he heard her statement . As he stared at her side profile, as sense of déjà vu overcame him .

Yu Lili patted Ou Ming on his shoulder casually and said, “You’re the one who saved your wife . You can’t not marry her, do you hear me?”

She said that he couldn’t not marry her, but she hadn’t said that she’d marry him . They generally meant the same thing, but there was still a distinction nonetheless .

“Regardless, you’re stuck with me for life . I don’t care if your mother accepts me or not . If you’re willing to marry me, then do so . If you’re not willing to, I’ll just seek death again .

It’s not a big deal . ” Yu Lili was choking with emotion throughout . As she reached the end, she started laughing .

Although she was laughing, it was Ou Ming’s turn to get choked up with emotion . A sensation completely foreign to him welled up . He was at a loss of what to do . He held her close to with one hand without saying a word . Tears rolled down his cheeks and landed on her collarbone .

Yu Lili hit him lightly on the side and asked, “So, are you going to marry me?”

“Yes . ” Ou Ming planted a gentle kiss on her cheek . “It wasn’t easy for me to find someone with such bad taste . I’m not letting you go . ”

“Get lost!” Yu Lili scolded him, but her heart was warm and happy .

Even without his sight, Ou Ming was still Ou Ming and he hadn’t given up on himself . That was enough .

Yu Lili rested herself on his shoulder . Her voice was gentle and firm as she made a promise . “In the days ahead, I’ll be your eyes . ”

“Alright . ” Ou Ming lightly moved her off him . “Whose clothing is this?”

Yu Lili bent her head down to look and replied, “It’s Qianqian’s . I didn’t bring a coat out with me, so she lent me hers . ”

“She doesn’t smell as good as you do,” Ou Ming said . “Why don’t you change it?”
