Yu Lili looked at the marriage certificate and glanced at Ou Ming in panic. She asked, “Why did you leave the marriage certificate lying here?”

Ou Ming turned his head imperceptibly and looked at it. He answered, “It provides a good motivation for me when I work.”

“But... but your mother seems to have seen it,” Yu Lili said. “What are we going to do?”

“If she’s seen it, so be it,” Ou Ming replied. He deliberately wanted her to see it. “After all, it’s a fact that we’re married. Why should we be afraid of people finding out about it?”

Yu Lili was at a loss of what to reply, but her heart was still feeling a little fortunate. She asked, “So, did your mother see it or did she not see it?”

If she had seen it, why did she have no reaction at all? But, if she hadn’t seen it...

Yeah, right! Such a conspicuous object was placed there. How could she not have seen it?

When Yu Lili recalled that Jiao Ziqing’s expressions and words had softened somewhat, a myriad of complex emotions arose.

“Stop thinking so much. Let’s just go with the flow.” Ou Ming laid his chopsticks on top of his bowl and declared, “I’m full now.”

“Alright. Leave them there. I’ll wash the dishes,” Yu Lili said. “You can get back to work.”

“Your stomach doesn’t hurt anymore?” Ou Ming asked.

“It’s a lot better.” She was well enough to at least wash a bowl.

“Let me do it,” Ou Ming said. “You should rest.”

“Right...” Yu Lili looked at his lone healthy hand and asked, “You’re going to wash the bowl with one hand? I don’t think that’s going to work.”

“I’m going to start a new trend,” Ou Ming declared.

“Get lost. Stop blocking my way. Off to work you go.” Yu Lili waved him off.

“Alright then,” Ou Ming replied.

Yu Lili brought the chopsticks and bowl into the kitchen and rinsed them under hot water. When she went out, she saw Ou Ming’s healthy hand flying across his keyboard, tapping out a document.

Ou Ming saw her and waved her over. “Come here and have a look at this.”

On the computer screen was the face of a middle-aged woman. The woman looked to be about 50 years old. Her skin was tan, and there were wrinkles on her face. She was smiling into the lens. The woman was dressed in a pretty, deep purple coat, and she wore her black hair short and curly.

“What’s wrong? Who’s this?” Yu Lili asked.

“This is the woman who gave birth to you years ago. Her name is Xu Meizhen.” As Ou Ming spoke, he retrieved Xu Meizhen’s particulars. “She’s 54 years old this year She has two children who are probably around 30 years old. Twenty years ago, one of her children died, but she’s living pretty well at the moment.”

Yu Lili looked at the unfamiliar woman in the photograph and was silent for a moment. “Does she know about me?”

“Yeah. She couldn’t really believe that you were still alive,” Ou Ming said.

After all, years ago, her toddler, who had been a full year old, wasn’t able to make it out alive. How then, could a newborn baby survive? But she had survived. And, she was now living very well.

“When are we going to meet her?” Yu Lili asked.

“When you feel better, we’ll take a trip home,” Ou Ming said. “Regardless of the situation, we’re still newlyweds. We have to return and prepare a meal for the two elders. Then, we’ll come clean to them properly. It’ll be easy to deal with my dad. All we have to do is convince my mom, and we’ll be able to hold our wedding ceremony.”

The wedding ceremony?

Yu Lili subconsciously recalled the dream wedding that Li Sicheng and Su Qianci had held in Ireland years back. The envy that she had harbored for many years surfaced again. “But, what if we can’t convince your mom?”

“That won’t happen. We definitely will.” Ou Ming was extremely confident. “When that happens, we’ll announce to the world that we’re married.”

Just the mere thought of it alone was enough to make Yu Lili smile in happiness. “Who’s the world?”

“You are,” Ou Ming said.
