When Yu Lili heard that, she subconsciously looked at Ou Ming’s hand that had been mercilessly beaten by her. Indeed, the back of his hand was a mess of black and blue. His hand hung limply by his side, and his eyes were vacant as he stood silently by the side.
When Yu Lili saw that, her heart twisted in pain.
This was a result of her blows? Oh sh*t!
When she realized what her emotional reaction had been, she consciously suppressed it immediately.
What the devil? He deserved that beating! Why am I feeling bad about it? Who felt bad for me?
“Hey, it getting late, and the temperature is very cold. Please stop being at odds with each other. It’s been hard on everyone. Take him back quickly. Treat it as a favor to us policemen, will you?” one of the police officers said to Yu Lili amidst mists of warm breath in the cold.
“That coat is mine,” one of the policemen pointed to the quilted jacket. It was very thin.
Yu Lili was even more at a loss for words at that point. She signed her name and begrudgingly took the Ou Ming with her.
After returning the jacket to the police officer, Yu Lili saw that Ou Ming’s pajamas were almost as thin as paper. Her brows knitted together in displeasure. She took off the long down coat she was wearing and covered it over Ou Ming without another word.
Ou Ming reached out to stop her. He finally opened his mouth and said, “I’m not cold. You should keep that on.”
“Bullsh*t.” Yu Lili rolled her eyes at him and brutally hit his hand away. “Cut the crap. F*ck this, I must have done some big bloody sh*t in my previous eight lives to have met you.”
Her words were serious. The policemen standing behind them all pursed their lips, not daring to say a word.
Yu Lili put her jacket on Ou Ming. She had him thread one arm through a sleeve and covered the other side. She conscientiously helped him with the zipper and even helped him put his hat on.
Ou Ming was much taller than Yu Lili. Her long jacket reached her ankles. On Ou Ming, it barely skimmed his knees. But, the gear was sufficient to keep him warm.
Only after she had ascertained that he was properly bundled up and protected from the cold did Yu Lili hold his hand and walk out.
The policemen watched from behind. They shook their heads as they lamented, “Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.”
“Even worse if it’s a girlfriend! This lad is stupid, too,” another policeman said. “If my girlfriend treated me that way, I’d have called it quits a long time ago!”
“Well, he’s blind, isn’t he? Beggars can’t be choosers,” the first policeman said.
“That’s true. It’s hard enough for a blind man to find a girlfriend, of course he would hold on to her,” the other policeman said. “Alright, alright, enough. Time to get off work. We can finally go home!”
Once they were out of the police station, Yu Lili felt the slicing chill of the cold wind. She couldn’t help but shiver. She was only wearing a pullover, and underneath that was a thin camisole. Her getup was especially thin in the cold night.
Shivering from the cold, Yu Lili felt that the man standing beside her was hateful indeed.
Did he have nothing better to do? Why the hell did he have to cause problems for me out of the blue?
Yu Lili pulled his hand along none too gently and barked out, “We’re going down the stairs. Don’t you go tumbling down.”
Unexpectedly, Ou Ming pulled her over forcefully, and said, “It’s really cold.”
“You’re bundled up and complaining of the cold? Do you know what I’m wearing?” Yu Lili asked indignantly.
Ou Ming jerked her toward himself and locked her in an embrace. “Then, let’s stick together to keep warm.”
As he spoke, he unzipped the zipper of his jacket and enveloped her in it. He said in a low rumble, “I can’t see. Lead me down the stairs. Don’t let me tumble down.”
