His heart quaked in shock when the realization dawned upon him. The desperate sorrow that was initially present in his heart was suddenly washed away by immense joy. At the same time, there was a sense of regret, loss, and fear.
She was here. She was here!
But, he could not see anymore. Did she know that he could no longer see?
Ou Ming wanted to raise his hand to touch her. Without even employing much strength or movement, a sharp pain shot through him. The pain caused gooseb.u.mps to rise all over his body and rendered him paralyzed.
He had broken his arm.
Yu Lili clearly felt his body stiffen, but she pretended not to notice. She sat on his bed. Trying her best to avoid his injuries, she hugged his neck.
Ou Ming lay immovable on the bed, but he could smell her scent. He greedily buried his face in her hair as his uninjured arm held her. His voice shaking slightly, as he said, “Yu Lili.”
“It’s I. It’s I. I’m here.” Yu Lili choked. She couldn’t help but burst into tears. “Do you have any idea how long I searched for you? Do you have any idea how long I waited there for you? You finally gave me a phone call, only to lie to me that way! I…”
Ou Ming had long expected this. Given Yu Lili’s character, there was no way she wouldn’t have searched for him.
The guilt Ou Ming felt started to grow. He was silent as he inhaled her scent. He suddenly felt his eyes burning with tears. He lowered his voice and asked, “When did you come?”
He had thought it would be a very long time before they would meet again. He even thought he’d have to disappear overseas for a period of time before he could be reunited with her. He never expected her to come. It was good timing and a pleasant coincidence.
“She was here long ago,” Wen Fenglin said. Looking at the young couple in front of him, his eyes were full of appreciation. He continued in a hoa.r.s.e voice, “But, your mother wouldn’t let her in to see you.”
That was expected. Ou Ming knew his mother too well.
Wen Fenglin looked at Yu Lili and asked, “Miss Yu, now that Xiao Ou can’t see and his arm is broken, does that bother you?”
Yu Lili loosened her arms around Ou Ming and turned to face Wen Fenglin. Her eyes were still puffy and full of tears. She wiped her tears off with her hand and asked, “Mr. Wen, if your beloved wife turned blind and broke her arm, would that bother you?”
Wen Fenglin had expected Yu Lili to reply with a vehement “No!” or “Of course not!” He hadn’t expected her to turn his question around back at him.
Although he was surprised, he recovered his composure and replied with a smile, “I don’t have a wife.”
A blank look crossed Yu Lili’s face for a moment as she recalled all the rumors surrounding Wen Fenglin. Indeed, all of them seemed to indicate that he wasn’t married. Since that was the case, was it possible that the reason Wen Fenglin was being so nice to her was because…
Yu Lili suddenly felt suspicious and looked at Wen Fenglin skeptically.
Wen Fenglin felt Yu Lili’s sudden wariness and burst out laughing. “What on earth is going through your mind? I don’t have a wife, but I have loved before. However, Miss Yu, Xiao Ou isn’t your husband. Are you playing word games with me?”
“Even if he isn’t now, he will be sooner or later!” Yu Lili’s voice rang out resoundingly. “If he doesn’t marry me, I’ll kill him and commit suicide.”
“Yu Lili,” Ou Ming gently said, “I may never see again in future. Have you thought it through clearly whether you really want to be with me?”
