Elope...
For some reason, Yu Lili got excited when faced with this crazy attitude of Ou Mingâs.
The train behind Ou Ming disappeared in the distance, and the booming sound that accompanied it dissipated too. The sunâs rays shone on Ou Ming from behind, giving him an ethereal image as he looked at Yu Lili dotingly.
Yu Lili smiled subconsciously as she nodded her head. Ou Ming burst out laughing instantaneously, and after grabbing her hand, he ran ahead.
When the person in the Bentley saw the couple running once again, her anger boiled over.
When Yu Lili looked back unintentionally, she caught a glimpse of the Bentley. The car had already u-turned and was making its way in the opposite direction.
Seeing Ou Mingâs mother concede defeat made Yu Lili feel vindicated inside.
When she turned her head back around, she didnât realize that the person beside her had stopped running. It took a while also to realize that they were already on the other side of the main road.
A car zoomed past them from the left, and Yu Lili tried to take a step back in caution. But before she could move, a strong arm circled around her and pulled her back into a protective cocoon.
Yu Liliâs heart was beating in her throat. That had been a big fright indeed.
Looking at the handsome face right in front of her, she let out a sigh of relief and exclaimed, âWhat just happened was so dangerous! What if weâd gotten hit?â
Ou Ming hugged her by the roadside and whispered, âItâll be fine. Iâm here to protect you.â
âWhat if Iâd gotten hit? Even if I didnât die, Iâd have at least lost an arm or a leg! How ugly I would be then!â Yu Lili rebuked him and gave him a smack.
In the moments earlier, she hadnât realized at all that they had reached the side of the main road. If Ou Ming hadnât pulled her away in time, it was highly likely that she would have been hit by the car and be lying on the road right now!
When Ou Ming heard Yu Liliâs words, he smiled and reassured her, âWhat do you have to be afraid of? Youâll never be ugly no matter what. If your arms are gone, Iâll feed you and bathe you. If your legs are broken, Iâll carry you on my back and take care of you for the rest of your life.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Yu Lili couldnât tell if Ou Ming was joking or being serious, but she nevertheless felt touched hearing him say that.
But very quickly, her lips twitched, and she replied, âIâll never give you that chance.â
Ou Ming pinched her cheeks. âThe lightâs green,â he remarked.
When Yu Lili turned to look, she found many bystanders looking at her. With an awkward grimace, she pushed herself out of Ou Mingâs embrace and crossed the road.
Ou Ming watched her from behind, his heart aflutter. He closed their distance, took her hand in his and walked with her. âWhat about me? If I lost my limbs, what would you do?â
âThereâll never be such a day.â Yu Lili held on to his hand without looking back and walked on.
âWhat if there is?â
There were many people walking in both directions. It was bound to be crowded everywhere since it was the first day of the New Year.
The grip between Yu Liliâs and Ou Mingâs hands tightened, and they were brought closer to each other. Ou Ming walked right beside her and rested his arm across her shoulders. âWhat if there is such a day? What will you do?â he continued interrogating.
Yu Lili gave it some thought then giggled aloud and replied, âIâm with you only because youâre good-looking. If you no longer have your hands or legs, you wonât be good-looking anymore. If that day comes, Iâll leave you and wonât be with you anymore!â
âHow dare you!â Ou Ming knew she was joking with him, but he was still a little upset at her reply. Amidst the crowd, he pinched the side of her waist and said, âIf you dare to run away, Iâll kill you.â
âOkay! Come kill me, then.â Yu Lili pushed his hand away and ran right into the thick of the crowd.
