Su Qianci tiptoed up to meet her husband with a dazzling smile on her face . “You’re welcome, Mr . Li . ”
Yu Lili’s heart was feeling a little empty . It had been a whole afternoon since she had last seen Ou Ming . He had never acted that way in the past . He had been missing for so long .
Has he gone home?
Everyone was seated at the dining table in the private dining room . Seeing how distracted Yu Lili was, Luo Zhan cleared his throat and asked, “Mrs . Ou Ming, what are you thinking about?”
Yu Lili glanced at Luo Zhan and smiled . “Humpf!” She said nothing else after that sound .
Luo Zhan was baffled . When he saw everyone around him taking pleasure at his discomfort, he coughed immediately and asked, “Oh no! Oh no! What have I done now?”
“Where did Ou Ming go? Out with it . ” Yu Lili took a sip of tea and looked at Luo Zhan with her eyebrows raised . “You must know where he is . ”
Luo Zhan looked away immediately . He turned to face the other side as he replied, “I don’t know! It’s not like Ou Ming told me where he was going . How would I know…”
Yu Lili slammed her teacup on the table and stood up . She took her phone with her as she headed out of the room . It was obvious that the grand dame was furious .
Luo Zhan lamented his misfortune . He quickly ran after her, yelling, “Sister-in-law, hold on a moment!”
Yu Lili turned around and rolled her eyes at him .
“Sigh, Ou Ming will be back soon . Just stay seated . ” Luo Zhan walked up to her and gently pushed her back to the dining table .
He caught sight of Li Sicheng and his wife holding hands as they walked in and felt a sense of relief . He called out, “Second Brother, Sister-in-law, come join us!”
“Daddy, sit over here!” Li Jianyue waved at Li Sicheng and patted the seat beside her . “Mommy, sit next to Daddy!”
Li Jianyue’s main intention was not to let Su Qianci sit beside her . The little child was feeling guilty . She didn’t dare look at Su Qianci for fear of getting scolded .
Not only could Su Qianci see through that, everyone else could too .
Yu Lili laughed, but she walked to a corner and said, “I’d still better give Ou Ming a call first . You guys go ahead and get seated . ”
“Sister-in-law, sigh, just sit . Ou Ming might just be back in 10 minutes . ”
Yu Lili didn’t believe him . Seeing how confident Luo Zhan seemed, she sat back down .
After 10 minutes, Ou Ming was still nowhere to be seen .
Yu Lili looked at the time . Just as she stood up, the whole place suddenly darkened . The sudden darkness shocked the little children .
Li Jianyue cried out, “Daddy!”
“Daddy is right here,” Li Sicheng reassured her with his timbre voice .
Li Sicheng held his daughter’s hand with one hand and his wife close with his other . He called out, “Third Brother . ”
“OK . ” Li Jinnan stood between the two boys . He rested each of his hands on each of the boys .
The sudden change gave Yu Lili a shock . She looked around and asked, “Luo Zhan, what’s going on?”
Just as she voiced the question, a ray of yellow light suddenly shone in from outside .
“Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you…” the voice was mesmerizing, warm, and clear .
Yu Lili was very familiar with that voice . Hearing it caused her head to turn .
Behind the yellow candlelight, a blindingly handsome face bit back a smile . His eyes looked right into hers as he made his way over, step by step . “Happy Birthday to Lili, Happy Birthday to you . ”
