Bloody conquest... His choice of words are a little...

Yu Lili flung his hand off. In a small voice, she said, “You might contract diseases.”

Ou Ming turned to look at Yu Lili with a look of surprise on his face. It was extreme surprise. “That causes diseases? I never heard of that before.”

Yu Lili pushed him forward, “You’ve heard it now. Let’s go!”

Ou Ming nodded his head. With a neutral expression, he said, “I did hear of it before. But, I don’t believe. Come, we should test it out.”

With that, he grabbed Yu Lili by the hand and rushed back into the room. Yu Lili glared at him and tried to push him off. “Get lost! Dad and Mom will come looking for us!”

A look of regret flashed across Ou Ming’s face. “We’ll test it out at night then.”

“Over my dead body!” Yu Lili exclaimed.

Ou Ming just laughed.

When Yu Lili emerged with Ou Ming, Jiao Ziqing was already halfway through her meal. Ou Huojin was in the midst of reading the papers. He looked up at them and said, “Have some breakfast. The breakfast Lili prepared is pretty good.”

“That goes without saying. I’ve always been eating her cooking.” Ou Ming pulled Yu Lili over to her seat without paying any attention to etiquette.

Ou Ming used a wet towel to clean his hands and dug in to his breakfast ravenously.

Yu Lili felt a little overwhelmed by the compliment and replied, “Thank you, Dad.”

Ou Huojin placed his newspapers down. He looked at Yu Lili and asked, “When are you intending to hold the wedding? Seriously! How could the two of you just marry without telling anyone about it? How is it appropriate for a girl to only have a wedding certificate to show for her marriage?”

Ou Huojin’s words made Yu Lili feel a little guilty.

Jiao Ziqing raised her head and harrumphed, “Why are you being such a busybody? Just let them do whatever they want to!”

“Soon. We’re in the midst of our preparations,” Ou Ming replied as he chewed on his breakfast.

Yu Lili turned to him with surprise written all over her face.

Ou Ming is already preparing for the wedding? Since when did that happen? How did I not know about it at all?

Ou Ming acted as if he hadn’t noticed Yu Lili’s expression. “However, regarding the guest list, I’ll need Dad and Mom’s help in deciding whom to invite. After all, you know a lot more than we do, isn’t that so, Mom?”

This tactic of currying favor worked wonderfully on Jiao Ziqing. She gave her son a side-eye. With a snort, she remarked, “You’ve finally remembered you parents! I didn’t see you thinking of us at all when you ran off to Fujian to woo your wife.”

Yu Lili felt even more awkward. As an accomplice to the matter Jiao Ziqing had referred to, she wanted nothing more than to hide her face.

Ou Ming didn’t seem to agree. With a look of objection, he said, “Mom, you’re wrong in saying that. What are we? We’re family. We’ve known each other for more than 30 years. You’re my mother! But, if I didn’t woo my wife back, how would you be able to have grandchildren in future? Whom would you play with? I was also acting out of your future interests!”

Yu Lili wanted to give him a tight slap.

You want children in order to provide your parents with a form of entertainment?

Ou Huojin had nothing to say. Jiao Ziqing glared at him and snorted, “What a smooth-talker.”

Ou Ming reached under the table and held Yu Lili’s hand. With obvious satisfaction, he said, “If I weren’t a sweet-talker, how could I have convinced my wife? Am I right?” As he said that, he looked at Yu Lili and wiggled his brows. His smile was bright, and his face radiated with happiness.

Yu Lili snatched her hand back. She deliberately ignored him and went back to eating her breakfast.
