The 99th Divorce

But…

Yu Lili said it half-way and suddenly stopped.

Hearing what she said, Ou Ming suddenly felt uncomfortable and could not help but ask, “But what?”

“But I found out that I have feelings for you after living together for such a long time. I thought that I hated you very much, but in fact, when I was in the most difficult and desperate condition, the first person I thought of was still you. After leaving Kingstown, I stayed in Yunnan for three months, and in Lijiang, a city in Yunnan, there was an activity about closing your eyes and writing the name of your most important person, and what I wrote was your name.” She thought that who she liked and wanted was Lu Yihan. But after leaving him, when she walked alone on the country road in Yunnan, she finally realized her true feelings.

The first month of leaving Ou Ming, I’ve been thinking about him, been missing him, and longed for him. I missed him very much and really wanted to go back. But at that time, Yu Lili did not dare to go back because she knew that she could not do that. Not only the death of the two babies, but also Li Sicheng’s death was enough to let him hate her. Yu Lili was not afraid of death, but what she feared was that after returning, she had to face Ou Ming’s hatred and hysterical posture. She couldn’t afford that feeling, which was more uncomfortable than death.

Later, she realized that she liked Lu Yihan because she couldn’t possess him when she was young. Also because she admired Su Qianci and longed for getting Lu Yihan’s care. Or, it was just a kind of obsession. An obsession that she couldn’t get him, but not willing to let go. Knowing the deepest answer in her heart, Yu Lili’s rigidity to Lu Yihan had slowly dissipated and didn’t exist any longer. Yu Lili smiled and looked at him, clearly seeing that his dark brown eyes were full of surprise.

Looking at the smiling face in front of him, he had a crush on her at once. Ou Ming’s heart rate suddenly became fast. It beat very fast, and he felt blissful. He was surrounded by a kind of happiness that he had never experienced before. What did Yu Lili talk about? Did she just… confess to me? Ou Ming had never heard of such a confession. From the beginning to the end, there was no word about love or adoration, but what she said made him feel that she liked him and that there was the existence of love. Instead of reacting, Ou Ming only had one thought: she cares about me, and she really likes me!

Yu Lili could not tell if Ou Ming’s attitude was happy or not because he looked absent-minded. If it was four years ago, Ou Ming would be very excited to hold her and spin around, wouldn’t he? But now… In the end, four years had passed and everything had changed.

Lowering her head slightly, she felt a little frustrated. She became red-faced and said, “I don’t mean to argue, and I just want to stay with you. Ou Ming, I want to be economically independent, although I am poor now, but I will definitely pay you off. I can be your housekeeper and I will have my own work and career in the future. I don’t want it… when others mention me, I don’t want their first reaction to be: ‘Ah, that woman is Ou Ming’s mistress’. They can say that I am your housekeeper, which is better than that…”
