Yu Lili’s mood was much worse than it had been when he had picked her up.
She felt shocked. She turned around and looked at Ou Ming with a gentle smile.
Something indescribable flashed in Ou Ming’s eyes. He stretched out his hand to pinch her face and said, “Don’t give me that look. It is worse than crying.”
Yu Lili pouted and touched her cheek that he had pinched. She lowered her head and asked, “Really?”
“Yes,” Ou Ming answered. He looked at her seriously. “Tell me what happened.”
“I…”
“If I find out that you are lying to me, I will punish you severely,” Ou Ming pinched her nose gently.
Captivated by his behavior, Yu Lili moved her lips into a slight smile and said, “I just heard some bad news.”
Ou Ming raised his eyebrows and gestured for her to continue, “And?”
“I heard that you once took Shen Manting to that noodle restaurant.”
Hearing her words, Ou Ming suddenly pulled a long face and asked, “Who said that?”
“A few of the waiters. They seem to know us and Shen Manting. I heard them gossiping in the washroom. They look down on me and said that I was your mistress and that you must be very happy to have both a fiancée and a mistress.” As Yu Lili spoke, she watched Ou Ming’s expression and saw him becoming more and more annoyed. She could not help but ask, “Is it true?”
Ou Ming felt angry and began to explain, “Shen Manting likes to eat at that noodle restaurant. My mother had asked her to make a special trip so that we could have a meal together. When Shen Manting took me to the restaurant, she told everyone that I was her fiancé.”
After Yu Lili heard his explanation, she immediately felt relieved. She lowered her head and said, “Why didn’t you tell me earlier? If I knew that she had been here, I wouldn’t have wanted to come. I hate the feeling of being criticized behind my back.”
“I forgot all about it.” Ou Ming looked at her, feeling a little helpless. “I only remember that you like to eat at that noodle restaurant. I can’t remember what that woman did with me, because I do not care about her. It has been nearly a year since Shen Manting has been there. Besides, I didn’t think it was important, so I didn’t tell you.”
“Oh…” Yu Lili was a little unhappier. She pouted her mouth and looked at Ou Ming. She asked, “What is important to you? Do you know that I almost cried in the washroom when I heard the waiters talking? I thought…”
“What did you think?” Ou Ming pinched her cheek. “You are a bad girl. What if I hadn’t noticed that you were upset? What if I didn’t ask what had happened? Would you have continued to live with me without telling me what you heard?”
Yu Lili lowered her head and felt a little guilty.
When Ou Ming saw her cowardice, he knew that his guess was right.
Disappointed by her, Ou Ming pinched her face. He sighed inwardly and said, “Shen Manting was selected by my mother to be a European style wife. That woman is not as beautiful and considerate as you are. She has a wealthy family, she is spoiled, and she doesn’t like it when things don’t go her way. I think she will come to find you.”
“You’re right. She has already called me once. I think that she is very arrogant and stupid,” Yu Lili answered.
Ou Ming smiled and rubbed her short hair. “If she comes to you again, remember to tell me. I will deal with her. You should trust me as much as you possibly can.”
