Chapter 1400: 1400

A woman’s best years had been wasted just like that . The person she had loved had become another woman’s husband…

The smile on Guan Queye’s face widened . She said, “Just wait . I’m going to extract payment for all that they owe me . ”

Guan Yanhong looked at his daughter with an aching heart . But, all he could do was smile and feed her another mouthful of cake .

–

It had been three days since Ou Ming returned to Kingstown .

Yu Lili stayed on in the Capital at the Shen residence . She saw Shen Manting every day . While it had been awkward in the beginning, she had gotten used to it after a few days of interaction .

However, although she had gotten used to the people living in the Shen residence, she still wasn’t used to spending her days alone in the Capital .

Yu Lili lay on the bed with the cell phone in her hand and send Ou Ming an emoji .

[YuuuuuLi]: Hubby [squinting smile]

[YuuuuuLi]: [muack]

[YuuuuuLi]: [rose]

[Ou Ming]: …

[YuuuuuLi]: [squinting smile] What are you doing?

[Ou Ming]: If you were around, I’d do you .

[YuuuuuLi]: …

[YuuuuuLi]: [angry face] Why are you such a pervert?

[Ou Ming]: I’m only a pervert when it comes to you .

[YuuuuuLi]: Shall I sneak back to Kingstown? What are you doing?

[Ou Ming]: OK . I’m working . [picture]

The photo was of a computer desk and a huge pile of documents and contracts . All the words were small and compact . They had a whole lot of numbers that Yu Lili couldn’t understand .

She didn’t look at it for long before replying: It’s past nine! Why are you still working?

[Ou Ming]: You aren’t here . There’s nothing else to do but work .

Yu Lili’s eyes crinkled as she smiled . She hugged her phone and turned in bed, laughing out loud to herself . She suddenly bounced up and made a video call to Ou Ming .

He picked up very quickly . The backdrop behind him was their wedding photograph on his office table . He was clearly still in the office .

Yu Lili laid on her stomach in bed and said, “Hurry home! Sleeping too late causes kidney deficiency in men!”

Ou Ming lifted his lips up in a smile and replied, “Don’t worry . Even with kidney deficiency, I’ll still be able to service you . ”

Yu Lili was speechless . “Stop being so pornographic with your words!”

“I miss you . ” Ou Ming suddenly changed the topic . He pouted, looking full of grievance, and said, “Sigh . Why don’t I come to the Capital tomorrow to see you? These few days have been so difficult . ”

“I want that too, but Granny and Dad have said that we’re not to see each other,” Yu Lili said .

“Aren’t we seeing each other now?” Ou Ming laughed casually . “Don’t listen to those outdated words . ”

“It’s not the same! Not seeing each other is to increase the feeling of mystery . We’re so familiar with each other that I don’t think there’s much feelings of mystery left . ” Yu Lili turned in bed and said, “Hey, let me tell you something…”

Yu Lili turned to “gossip mode” and began sharing all the marketplace gossip and details about the Shen family with Ou Ming .

He nodded his head every now and then and listened to her very intently .

The two of them spoke late into the night before hanging up the call unwillingly . The clock showed that it was past 11 p . m .

Yu Lili felt a little thirsty, so she put on her shoes and went to the kitchen to get a glass of water . As she was passing by the neighboring room, she heard the sound or restrained crying .

She paused in her steps and turned her head to look . The white door blocked half the sound off, but the sound of tears could still be heard .

It wasn’t loud, but it piqued Yu Lili’s curiosity . She tiptoed over and pressed her ear to the wall as she tried to hear what was going on . However, the sound of tears disappeared . It was as if it had been nothing more than her imagination .

Did I hear wrong?
