Chapter 1246

Yu Lili had just been dragged into the bathroom when she heard her phone ring outside . Without a doubt, a call at this hour could only come from Shen Zhilie .

This scenario called to Yu Lili’s mind the events that had transpired in the hotel the night before . She began to blush uncontrollably . When she looked up, she found Ou Ming staring at her .

His eyes were teasing and suggestive at the same time . He pulled her over and lowered his voice, asking, “Why is your face so red? What are you thinking of?”

Yu Lili glared at him . Without replying to his question, she snatched her hand back and said, “I’m going to pick up the phone . ”

“Pick up the phone?” Ou Ming raised his eyebrows . With an air of arrogance, he smiled and asked, “We’re not going to bathe anymore?”

“Get the water going,” she said . “I’ll help you bathe in a moment . ”

“Together . Why are you abandoning me?” Ou Ming held her hand, but it wasn’t to lead her into the shower . Instead, he pulled her onto the bed .

Ou Ming picked up the phone that was ringing incessantly . He smiled when he looked at it . “I thought it’d be Shen Zhilie . ”

“It isn’t?” Yu Lili reached over . “Who is it, then?”

“Ye Qianqian . ” Ou Ming tossed the phone to Yu Lili .

Yu Lili looked at her phone . Indeed, it was Ye Qianqian . She answered the call and heard Ye Qianqian sigh heavily over the phone . “Hello, Qianqian?”

“Lili! My life is so hard!” Ye Qianqian whined bitterly . She quickly began to spill all her grievances out . They ranged from Ye Youyou’s injury, to cursing at Shen Luo’an, and criticizing the Shen family as animals .

Toward the end of the conversation, Ye Qianqian asked Yu Lili to request for leave from the company on her behalf so that she could look after her sister . Only then was Yu Lili able to hang up the call .

In the bathroom, Ou Ming had already filled up the tub . As he unbuttoned his shirt, he walked over to Yu Lili . She had just hung up the phone and was feeling heavy-hearted .

Ou Ming arm weaved across her chest and wrapped around her waist . With his lips against her ear, he murmured, “It’s time to bathe . ”

Yu Lili’s ear was tickled . She laughingly moved away . With a coquettish flair, she complained, “You have to let me get in . ”

Ou Ming didn’t want to let go . Looking at her petite frame, he felt a tinge of regret . Had his arm not been injured, he would have immediately carried her into the bathroom, undressed her, and put her in the water . With the use of only one hand, there was no way he could carry her .

He had no choice be to loosen his hold reluctantly . His eyes trailed her body as he commented, “It’s grown . ”

When Yu Lili heard that, she instinctively touched her hair by her ears . Just when she was about to speak, the cell phone rang again . This time, it was Shen Zhilie .

Ou Ming saw the name clearly on the screen . His brows rose .

Yu Lili looked at the phone, but she wasn’t in a hurry to respond . She sat on the bed and answered the call .

Ou Ming’s expression darkened . His plans to go into the bathroom had been interrupted . With each knee on either side of Yu Lili’s body, he lowered himself and pushed her onto the bed with his arm .

Yu Lili yelped out in surprise . At the same time, the call had just connected . The caller heard everything clearly . She quickly covered her mouth and glowered at Ou Ming .

Ou Ming acted as if he hadn’t notice her expression and commented out loud, “Is it Shen Zhilie? Answer the call then . We can continue later . ”

Yu Lili stuck her foot out and gave him a hard kick, clearly annoyed . The way he said it made it seem as if they had been up to something .
