filled with tenderness and pity. His dark brown eyes shined brightly. Dark like the midnight sky, Ou Ming’s eyes carried Yu Lili’s reflection within.

Yu Lili gazed into that pair of eyes. An unexplainable sensation began to build up in her heart and erupted. It pushed past her heart and came flowing out of her eyes. Tears welled up and came cascading down her cheeks.

Ou Ming gazed at her and rested his hand on her face. “Why are you crying?”

When she heard that, she knew without a doubt that Ou Ming could see. To think that she had been worrying just a moment before how he was going to fare without the use of his eyes.

Yu Lili felt as if her heart was soaring in the wind. Her emotions were in such an upheaval beyond even her own comprehension. She suddenly couldn’t hold herself back as the floodgate of emotions broke through. She began bawling out loud. Large droplet of tears rolled down her face.

The sight made Ou Ming’s heart ached for her. He reached out to draw her to him and planted a gentle kiss on her wet hair. “Don’t cry.”

That gentle voice carried a charm and mesmerizing quality of its own.

Her originally wavering heart was suddenly beating against his chest. Even if she wanted to get off, he wasn’t going to allow her to.

Yu Lili lay sprawled across his shoulders as she cried like a child, “You liar!”

Hearing Yu Lili cry like a little child made Ou Ming smile. He cajoled, “Yes, I am a liar.”

“You could clearly see! Why did you lie to me? Why did you have to put me through that?” Yu Lili clenched her fists and pummeled him on his back twice. But, she hadn’t used much force, and it didn’t hurt at all.

Ou Ming hugged her tighter and murmured, “I was afraid that you would hate me. If I didn’t inflict a little injury on myself, how was I to gain your sympathy?”

“Even after doing so, I still don’t want to have anything to do with you,” she said.

“If I hadn’t done that, you wouldn’t even be willing to take one look at me,” he said.

What Ou Ming had said that day had indeed been too vicious. He had thought that he would be blind for life and hadn’t left himself with any way out.

No one had expected that after two days of unconsciousness, he would suddenly wake up with his sight back. This surprise brought him much happiness but also a whole lot of regret.

He regretted that his tongue had been so venomous. He regretted the rashness of his actions.

Based on Yu Lili’s character, if she knew he had recovered and wanted to get back together with her, she would run far away as fast as possible.

Although it wasn’t exactly the best time to come clean, he couldn’t keep up with the ruse for much longer either.

If he continued pretending, he was going to be seen through sooner or later. Coming clean on his own could perhaps lessen his sins. Besides, he wouldn’t be able to take it if the afternoon’s events replayed themselves a few more times.

Thinking back to Shen Zhilie’s villainous actions that afternoon, Ou Ming clenched his jaw.

Yu Lili cried for a few minutes. She soon wiped her face, sat up, and pushed him hard.

Despite getting pushed, Ou Ming didn’t loosen his grip on her. Conversely, he tightened his hold.

“Let go!” she yelled

“Not a chance.” Ou Ming’s voice was calm but left no space for disagreement. “I didn’t come clean in order to let you leave.”

Yu Lili broke out in a smile. “Since you’re recovered. I don’t need to take care of you any longer. Let go. I’m going back.”

“Going back?” Ou Ming’s gaze deepened as he pulled her to him. “Your man is here. Where do you intend to go?”

“Didn’t we break up?” she asked.

“We’re making up! We’ll go back to Kingstown tomorrow and obtain our marriage license!”
