1193 Don’t Leave…

No, perhaps not even a b*tch! Even a b*tch had her own sense of dignity and principles.

Given the way he was treating her, it was likely that he saw her as nothing more than a toy.

When he was happy, he'd give her some sweet treats, cheat her into thinking he'd marry her, and convince her he truly loved her. When he was upset, off came the sheepskin to expose the wolf, revealing his true nature.

He was just like his mother, always guarding his possessions for fear they would be coveted and seized by others. Once she got too close, they would become like hedgehogs, injuring the "intruder" until she was nothing but a bloody mess.

Who could afford to have such a man?

His kiss became deeper and deeper. It was forceful.

If this had been in the past, Yu Lili would have responded passionately and happily. Now, all that was left in Yu Lili's heart was hurt and pain. As the kiss got deeper, so did the intensity of the pain in her heart.

With her free hand, she pressed against his stomach and pushed him off with all the might she could muster. Her breathing was hard and heavy.

Ou Ming released her lips, but his hand remained in position. He lowered his voice and commented, "There's the taste of ice cream."

Yu Lili's eyes began to heat up. She shoved him away and raised her arm, intending to give him a tight slap. Before her slap landed, she stopped her hand in midair.

The Ou Ming before her was just staring ahead with vacant and unfocused eyes, as if he had no idea whatsoever about anything that was currently happening. The slap halted in midair and never landed.

Yu Lili bit her lip and laughed humorlessly as she pushed him away. She said sarcastically, "You're so hungry? Why don't I find someone to service you?"

When Ou Ming heard that, his face changed. He tried to grab onto her with his uninjured arm, only to have her avoid him.

Yu Lili looked at his hand, and laughed coldly. "Do your parents know how much of a demon you still are even when you're blind?"

With that, she turned around and walked to the door. Before she could open the door, the sound of hurried footsteps came from behind her.

Ou Ming had wanted to catch her hand, but he had reached for the wrong place. He ended up with a handful of material from the back of her wool garment.

The handful did much to settle Ou Ming's mood. He called out, "Yu."

Yu Lili's back was toward him. Her eyes and face turned to ice as she stopped in her tracks to remove his hand from her person. But, he held on tightly and began pulling on her garment as he walked toward her.

Yu Lili straightened her back. She turned her head guardedly and looked at the man behind her. Gone was his usual brilliance and pride. This Ou Ming seemed nothing more than an overgrown child who was dependent on an adult.

Ou Ming gripped on to her sweater as he pleaded helplessly, "Don't leave…"

Yu Lili felt a tremor in her heart. It was as if lightning had struck amidst the emotional storm she was braving. The pain rippled throughout her, bringing along a dull ache in its wake.

She couldn't maintain her expression any longer. Tears began flowing down her face, but she reacted immediately. She raised her hands, wiped her eyes, and made an effort to sound as normal as she could. Coldly, she said, "Mr. Ou Ming, I only have one sweater. Please let me have it. It's very cold outside."

Ou Ming refused to loosen his grip and begged, "Then, stay. Don't leave."

"Apologies, but my boyfriend is waiting for me to return. I'm afraid it'll be inappropriate for me to stay here," she replied.
