Yu Lili couldn’t comprehend his actions and so looked questioning at Ou Ming .
Ou Ming footsteps were a little quick, and he let out a breath when he had finally pulled her away . “Silly lady . You were being too rash . If they want to snap a photograph, just let them! Approaching them that way could have resulted in us being recognized . ”
When Yu Lili heard that, her reaction was immediate . In her shock, whatever she was about to say died in her throat . “I’d forgotten…” she stated, feeling a little upset .
There was nothing Ou Ming could do except to hold her hand and lead her further inside .
The art exhibition center was gigantic, and there were numerous paintings hanging all around . As Yu Lili and Ou Ming made their way around, they were both captivated by the different paintings that all possessed the same element of beauty . Regardless of whether it was because of the technique or the color scheme, each and every piece had them enthralled .

It was New Year’s Eve tonight, and there were many people in Kingstown . But not just anyone could gain entry to an art exhibition like this one . Although the number of people around wasn’t small by any means, it was still a lot more serene compared to the teeming crowds outside .
When Yu Lili saw that they were reaching the end of the exhibition, a sense of reluctance came over her . Every piece of art contained such an exquisite sense of beauty .
“There’s another piece here!” someone announced from behind . Instinctively, Yu Lili turned to look .
It was a young lady who was dressed extravagantly . When everyone heard the young lady’s words, they all rushed forward . But the audience’s reaction towards this piece was unlike their reactions to all the other pieces . They only spared it a few glances and then walked off .
A second group from the back went forward as well, with the same reaction .

Yu Lili couldn’t resist going nearer to the painting .
All the previous paintings were bold, colorful, and full of personality . Judging from those paintings, one could tell that the artist led a vagrant life and was an extremely bold and uninhibited person . Most of the paintings had been of women, and some of them had been of a naked man and woman entwined with each other .
Bold . Beautiful . Sensual .
But this last painting was a lot simpler than any of the others before it . In fact, one could say that it stood out like a sore thumb .
Yu Lili heard Ou Ming make a questioning sound, and she automatically made her way forward to scrutinize the painting in greater detail .

The whole painting was covered in different shades of beige throughout the whole canvas . Right in the middle, the beige color had gradually become light brown—it was a light brown umbilical cord that was joined to a newborn sucking his thumb . The baby’s eyes were still shut, and its body was still tainted with unwashed blood .
The strokes of this painting differed greatly from those of the previous paintings . The strokes were extremely fine, and the color was dark . Even the color schemes and painting techniques were different .
It was almost as if it had been painted by a completely different person .
When Ou Ming saw this, he raised his eyebrows and asked, “This can’t have been painted by the same person, right? The difference in style is too great . ”
Yu Lili looked on at the painting and replied, “It’s painted by the same person . ” She stepped even closer and looked at the canvas .
“The painting is completely beige, but the canvas does not look recent . It was probably painted a long time ago . ”
“What do you know?” a loud voice rang out without any warning .
