In addition to sudden doubt, Yu Lili had an expression of awkward bewilderment written all over her face .
Moving away so that he wouldn’t crush her, he removed his suit jacket and lay beside her . He planted a light kiss on her head and answered, “No . My mom probably has some misunderstanding towards you . Once I clear it up with her, she’ll understand . ”
“Is that so?” Yu Lili was a little dispirited . She looked up at Ou Ming and pasted on a smile . “You should go home . Your mom is probably waiting for you . ”
“I want to be with you . ” Ou Ming rolled on top of her and responded as he brought his lips down to her face . “I’ll go back tomorrow . ”

Yu Lili turned her face away, avoiding his kiss . Feeling a keen sense of loss deep inside, Yu Lili uttered dejectedly . “You should go . I don’t feel like doing it now . ”
Ou Ming’s eyes glazed over, and he enveloped her in an embrace . “We won’t do it then . Let’s just chat . ”
When Yu Lili heard that, she turned her body around to face him .
Lowering her head, she burrowed into this embrace and draped her hand across his waist . “Ou Ming,” she called out .

“Yeah?” Ou Ming held on to her and gently kissed the top of her head . “I’m right here . ”
“Ou Ming, I’m very curious about something . But I’ve never dared to ask you about it . I want to ask you now . Will you give me an answer?” Yu Lili lifted her head to look at him . Her eyes looked misty and wet .
When Ou Ming gazed at her, he could feel her unease and proceeded to stroke her hair . “What is it?
Winter nights always came earlier . It was only five in the afternoon, but the light in the room had dimmed considerably .

Under the dim light, Ou Ming’s eyes looked especially bright . The eyes that were looking at her shone radiantly with love, guilt, and an inexplicable sense of pity .
“Ou Ming . ” Yu Lili looked Ou Ming in the eye . Her heartbeat quickened to the point that it was driving her crazy . It made her feel numb . Without meaning to, she grabbed on to his hand tightly and asked, “Will you marry me?”
Ou Ming never expected her to ask such a question . He was shocked for a moment, then looked resolutely at her and declared, “I will . ”
“Really?”
“Of course . ” Ou Ming looked at her and threaded his fingers through her short hair . His eyes burning, he assured her, “I will not marry any other woman . I promise you that my wife will be you . It can only be you . ”
Yu Lili’s nose started to ache, and she buried her face in his chest .
Ou Ming glanced down at her . His voice was a little raspy when he said, “I will resolve the issue with my mom . ”
Jiao Ziqing had a weak physical disposition . He wouldn’t be able to go against her directly . All he could do was try to convince her gradually .
Right now, their biggest obstacle was Yu Lili’s identity . Ou Ming knew all this well . With Yu Lili still in his arms, he asked, “Yu, have you ever met your parents?”
“No . For as long as I could remember, I grew up in an orphanage . How could I have ever met my parents?” Yu Lili chuckled . “Even my name was given to me by the orphanage director . It snowed heavily in Kingstown that year . I heard it was the heaviest it had been in 50 years, and they were at their poorest . The weather was horrible, and a kid froze to death . The milk that was designated for the kid was given to me instead . That’s why they gave me the name Yu Lili . ”
