Chapter 1130: 1130

Yu Lili paused feeding Ou Ming his soup and gave him a look . For some reason, she felt that was an underlying meaning to his statement .

Did he mean to say that he would keep with it and continue to be with me for a long time to come?

When she thought of this, a smile broke out on her face . She put the soup flask back on the table and capped it . She brought the rice over . In a deliberately sully tone, said, “Eat your food . ”

Outside the ward, Ou Ming’s parents were looking in from the glass window . As experienced people who had been there and done that, when they saw the smile on Yu Lili’s face, they knew exactly what her sentiment was .

From the looks of it, Yu Lili was truly sincere in her feelings toward Ou Ming . Furthermore, the depths of her feelings were much deeper than they had thought .

Seeing that Ou Ming was finally willing to eat, Jiao Ziqing felt her eyes heat up with unshed tears . At the same time, an unexplainable sense of jealousy overcame her .

“I’m the mother who brought Ou Ming up for 30 years . Why would he listen to her and not to me?” she asked .

Upon hearing Jiao Ziqing’s protest, Ou Huojin stopped smiling and hooked his arm around her . “Children need to lead their own lives . Your son’s taste has been even pickier than mine since he was young . It’s not as if you didn’t know that . Let nature take its course . ”

Jiao Ziqing was about to voice her rebuttal when she thought of something . She turned her head to face her husband and said bitterly, “You’re telling me that I can’t even measure up to that girl?”

“Don’t overthink it!” Ou Huojin didn’t know whether to laugh or to cry . “When did I even say anything that would mean that?”

“Didn’t you? You clearly said that your son’s taste was even pickier than yours . That means that I’m not as good as she is!” Jiao Ziqing stretched her arm out and aggressively pinched Ou Huojin on the waist .

“Not at all! Not at all! If I had good taste then, I wouldn’t have refused to marry you . It was only after marriage that I realized how awesome you were,” he said . “Well, look, it’s been so many years, and not a day has gone by that I don’t regret how blind I was then…”

Happiness blossomed in Jiao Ziqing’s heart upon hearing her husband’s words . But, she still harrumphed and admonished him . “You’re so old but still so licentious . Your son’s already all grown up! Restraint yourself a little more!” With that, she turned and walked away .

Ou Huojin followed her . “Where are you going?”

“To eat . Aren’t you hungry?” she asked .

Is she leaving Ou Ming entirely in Yu Lili’s hands?

Ou Huojin looked toward her retreating back helplessly . He suddenly thought of something and asked, “Where’s Lao Wen?”

“I don’t know . Give him a call . ” Jiao Ziqing went ahead on her own .

Ou Huojin took his phone out and gave Wen Fenglin a call, but no one picked up . Seeing that Jiao Ziqing had walked some distance, he jogged up to her .

At the same time, ahead of them in the opposite direction, in a stairwell with the door unlatched, a phone was ringing incessantly . The ringtone was a little muffled, as if it came from someone’s pocket .

Wen Fenglin was collapsed on the ground . His eyes were half-closed, and his hands were straight across his head . A tiny cigarette butt was still burning, giving off a plume of gray smoke .

When he heard the phone ring, Wen Fenglin did his best to lift his hand and retrieve the phone, but his numerous attempts remained unsuccessful . When he finally managed to get his phone out, the ringing had stopped .

Wen Fenglin unlocked the phone with his fingerprint . He was about to return the call to Ou Huojin when another call came in . He answered the call at the same time the caller hung up .

Wen Fenglin was starting to find the situation comical, but his consciousness was getting increasingly blurred . He opened his mouth . The sound that came out was barely a whisper, “Help…”
