  Ou Ming was seated in front of a table. On his back was a thin quilted jacket. Underneath the jacket were thin silk pajamas. His hand was inside the cast hanging from his neck.

  His bottoms were also a thin pair of silk pajama pants. They were deep purple. Under the fluorescent bulb, the material reflected the lighting and looked luxurious. One look and anyone could tell that the pajamas weren’t cheap.

  On his feet were a pair of cheap cotton shoes. It made him look dejected and fallen indeed.

  What was even more heartbreaking were his eyes. What were originally bright and twinkling were now lifeless and without focus. He looked just like a cloth doll without any soul and surrounded in darkness.

  Instinctively, Yu Lili slowed her steps down and walked in. Seeing Ou Ming in this state made her heart ache. She was clearly in front of him, yet he couldn’t see her.

  What is he doing here? Isn’t he supposed to be in Kingstown at this hour? Furthermore, isn’t he supposed to be in the hospital? What on earth is going on?

  The policemen were chatting among themselves inside the office. When they saw Yu Lili approaching, the eyes of one of the policemen lit up immediately. One of them asked, “Are you Miss Yu? You’re here to pick Mr. Ou up, aren’t you?”


  When Ou Ming heard the policeman’s words, he jolted upright and turned his head to face Yu Lili.

  Yu Lili smiled when she heard the policeman and replied, “I am Yu Lili. Please give me a moment.”


  Ou Ming faced Yu Lili and reached his hand out. When saw his action, she stopped in her tracks. Witnessing how naturally he had reached his hand out for her made her heart hurt.

  Ou Ming was expressionless, and he hadn’t said a word. But, he was already able to affect her emotions. This guy…… was really disgusting.

  Yu Lili raised her head and ignored Ou Ming’s outstretched hand, pretending as if she hadn’t seen it. She looked to the policeman and asked, “When did he come?”


  “Around 10 p.m…… We saw him wandering by the roadside and brought him back,” a policeman said. His expression was full of admonishment. “I don’t mean to poke my nose into your business, but how could you leave a blind man on his own in public? It’s a good thing nothing happened. If something had happened, who could afford to take responsibility for it?”


  That was right. No one could afford to take responsibility.

  But, right now, this wasn’t Yu Lili’s responsibility to shoulder either.

  Her eyes finally rested on Ou Ming again. She looked at his hand outstretched toward her and asked, “How did you get here?”


  Ou Ming didn’t reply. With his outstretched arm, he proceeded to feel his way over toward Yu Lili.

  Yu Lili looked at him and took a step back. All Ou Ming managed to grab onto was emptiness.

  “Aren’t you supposed to be in the hospital now? Did the doctor approve your discharge?” Yu Lili’s tone wasn’t too friendly. It was dripping with disgust.

  When they heard Yu Lili’s tone, all the police officers who had initially assumed that she would take him back quickly began to look at each other.

  However, Ou Ming kept silent. His lips were pursed into a thin line as his eyes stared vacantly ahead.

  Yu Lili’s tone became even colder. As if her temper had gotten the best of her, she started to yell, “Do your parents know you came here all the way from Kingstown?”


  There was no reply. Like a mute, Ou Ming refused to say a word.

  Yu Lili felt her temper rising. Grinding her teeth together, she asked, “Just look for whomever you were looking for. Why the hell did you give them my number?”
