Chapter 1169

When Shen Zhilie heard that, he picked up his bowl of beef noodles and turned to face a different direction .

Yu Lili sat down to rest in the hotel . Shen Zhilie suggested taking Old Mrs . Shen out to the popular park nearby for a walk . As the local, Yu Lili naturally provided them with a list of things to do and places to visit in Kingstown .

They were out for a whole afternoon . Around 2 p . m . , they started feeling hungry . They randomly picked a place to eat . Afterward, they continued exploring the city the rest of the afternoon away . By the time they returned to the hotel, it was nighttime .

After dinner, Yu Lili told them she still needed to work . She said goodbye to the old lady and headed home .

As she stood at her own door, she felt for her keys . Upon opening the door, she was faced with familiar surroundings . The invisible strings that had been tied around her heart and body suddenly loosened .

She was home . She was finally home .

Although this home had no family or loved ones, it was the only place on earth where she felt safe . It was good to be back .

Yu Lili pulled out a set of pajamas and headed into the shower . As the hot droplets of water cascaded down her body from the top of her head, she felt herself relax even more .

After showering and changing into pajamas, Yu Lili applied a face mask that she usually couldn’t bear to use . She then switched on her digital screen and started to sketch .

Nearly 30 minutes later, it took the chime of her cell phone to break her out of her reverie . It was 10 p . m . and bedtime .

Yu Lili washed the face-mask off her face, switched off her digital screen, and laid on the bed . But, she couldn’t fall asleep . Throughout the whole day, her heart had felt like a dry fountain in the middle of an abandoned park . It suddenly felt as if that dry fountain had come to life, spilling the water that had lay dormant underneath for so long .

Since it was late at night, the silence mimicked the atmosphere of being deep underwater . The loneliness buried deep within her heart revealed itself while she was alone in that silence of the night and quietly seeped into the essence her being .

It overwhelmed her completely . The sadness filled her heart . She had faced life and the world with a splendid smile on her face and flowers in her hair, but no one could have guessed the intense loneliness she carried .

She endured until she couldn’t anymore . When the loneliness finally won out, it ate her up bit by bit from the inside .

If you won’t have me, I’ll kill you and commit suicide .

The tears glistened as they fell from the corners of her eyes . Yu Lili stared up at the ceiling, with a calm and peaceful heart .

Out of nowhere came a sudden heartache and unexplainable pain . That statement had been made in the heat of the moment . How could she ever bear to kill him? There was no way she could ever bring herself to do that .

As if there was something piercing her heart, every beat seemed to come with a bolt of dull pain . Yu Lili turned over in bed . She hid her head under the covers, burying the heat from her tears along with it .

She found it difficult to breathe, but she refused to emerge from under the covers . She felt the heat suffocating her from within . Her tears stained her face and soaked the sheets .

In the end, she could resist no further and came out of the covers for air . The coldness in the air seemed to douse her and jolt her up . Yu Lili started gasping for air . Perhaps it was because of asphyxia or some other reason, but her vision was blurred . She couldn’t see .

Is this what Ou Ming’s world is now like?
