Chapter 1152

Yu Lili could tell from Ou Ming’s tone that something was wrong . Panic began to overwhelm her, making it hard for her to breathe .

She pulled her hand back and didn’t knock any further . She kept her eye on the door, but took a step back and leaned on the balustrades of the second story .

From below, Jiao Ziqing saw Yu Lili leaning over and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Yu Lili turned her to face her and shook her head . Immediately after, an idea flashed through her mind . She stepped forward to knock on the door once again .

“Ou Ming, if you’re asking me to leave, you have to let me take my things . My bag is still inside,” she said .

When Ou Ming heard that, he felt around the couch for her handbag . He identified it quickly . Lifting it by its strap, he groped his way to the door .

His steps were big . Every step he took was done slowly and methodically .

Ou Ming opened the door and held the bag out, but no one took it from him .

Yu Lili looked into his lifeless eyes dejectedly . She suddenly leaped forward and wrapped her arms around his waist .

Her action was completely unexpected and caught Ou Ming by surprise .

“What’s wrong? You should be feeling lot better on a full stomach . Why are you in such a bad mood?” Yu Lili gently rested her head on his chest . She spoke in a warm tone . “You didn’t get to clean up yesterday, isn’t that so? I’ll help you take a shower and wipe your body now, is that alright?”

Her voice was gentle . Each word was spoken tenderly . But, it wasn’t Yu Lili . His Little Carp would never have spoken to him as if she were trying to placate a little kid . She would also have never been this gentle and tender with him for no reason .

This was the difference . Their attitudes clearly conveyed a painful truth to him . He was officially handicapped .

Ou Ming pushed Yu Lili off him gently . Without any expression on his face, he said, “Leave . ” As he spoke, he shoved the handbag toward her . “I’m tired . I want to sleep . ”

“Did you not sleep well last night?” Yu Lili refused to release him and nudged him back into the room . “I’ll stay with you . ”

“I said no!” Ou Ming’s voice suddenly changed . His frustration and anger boiled over . “What will it take for you to leave?”

Being hollered at shocked Yu Lili . She looked at him in disbelief and asked, “Ou Ming, do you really want me to leave?”

“Leave!” he yelled again, his anger bubbling to the surface .

Yu Lili pursed her lips . Her breath quickened when she saw the emotional state he was in . She accepted the handbag from him and said in a low voice, “I got it . I’ll leave now . ”

Ou Ming felt his heart shatter . It was as if someone had stuck a knife right through him and dug out his heart . The pain of his bleeding heart consumed him .

He was about to chase her, but he changed his mind at the last moment .

Yu Lili didn’t notice his minute action . She turned around and said, “I’ll come back when you’re in a better mood . ”

Ou Ming re-entered his room and slammed the door shut with a loud bang . The sound carried all the pain and despair he was feeling . Tears began to well up and blur everything .

Yu Lili’s mouth opened against her wishes . She stopped in her tracks mid-step . She slumped down against the wall and began to sob .

Ou Ming locked the door upon shutting it . When he turned around, everything remained dark . Nothing had changed at all .

An uncontrollable grief welled up in him and came gushing out of his eyes in a flood of tears . Ou Ming bit down hard on his knuckles to prevent his cries from being heard . From a distance, a sound of a man sobbing came and went from within the room .
