The 99th Divorce

To Ou Ming’s disappointment, Yu Lili didn’t continue the topic.

However, the consolation was that Shen Zhilie would have fallen at least a little in Yu Lili’s esteem.

Ou Ming sat there calm and collected. With the towel and ice wrapped around his hand, the pain diminished. He replied, “No. I was waiting for you. I can’t see the menu, and this rascal refused to read it out to me.”

Shen Zhilie was rendered speechless for a moment. “When did you ask me to read the menu to you?”

“You know very well that I can’t see, and yet you still threw the menu over to me. What was the meaning of that?” Ou Ming asked in return. Shen Zhilie caught Yu Lili’s eye once more.

Ou Ming was driving Shen Zhilie insane with rage. He had initially assumed that being blind would cause Ou Ming to exercise more restraint. Now, it seem more like he was just pretending. He pretended to behave himself with Shen Zhilie. Once Yu Lili returned, he turned the tables around.

Such a tactic was beyond contemptible. Then again, it was indeed this truth.

Shen Zhilie couldn’t bring himself to say a word in his own defense, especially after witnessing the look in Yu Lili’s eyes. He had no choice but to swallow his anger.

“I’ll order, then,” Yu Lili declared.

She called the waitress over and rattled off a few of Ou Ming’s favorite dishes before passing the menu to Shen Zhilie and asking him, “What would you like to eat?”

Shen Zhilie’s mood had been thoroughly destroyed by Ou Ming’s antics. He randomly picked a few dishes before putting the menu back in its place.

They were currently seated in a booth with two seats on each side facing each other. Ou Ming sat alone, while Shen Zhilie and Yu Lili sat together.

The dishes were served quickly. Ou Ming, with a towel wrapped around his hand, said, “My hand is scalded. I can’t hold the chopsticks. Yu, feed me.”

When Yu Lili heard that, she glanced at Ou Ming’s hand from opposite the table. It was red, swollen, and covered with blisters. It did look pretty severe and must have been very painful.

Unexpectedly, before she could react, Shen Zhilie stood up, and walked over to Ou Ming’s side of the table. “It was my fault that your hand was scalded. I’ll feed you.” Shen Zhilie picked up Ou Ming’s bowl, and said, “What do you want to eat? I’ll feed you.”

Yu Lili pursed her lips and bit back a smile as she said, “I’ll leave it to you, then. Feed him well.” With that, she picked up her own chopsticks and began eating at a leisurely pace.

“No. I won’t eat if he feeds me,” Ou Ming said.

“It’s fine. You can’t see anyway. Just pretend that I’m a great beauty.” Shen Zhilie picked up the chopsticks and picked some food up. “Here, ahhh… Open your mouth.”

Ou Ming turned his head away resentfully. “No beauty is that ugly!”

“This is the first time I’ve ever fed anyone,” Shen Zhilie said. “Eat properly!”

Ou Ming clamped his mouth shut, and shut his eyes in frustration.

“It’s up to you!” Yu Lili took one look at Ou Ming and continued with her meal.

When Shen Zhilie heard Yu Lili’s words, he put the bowl down and picked up his own chopsticks. With a sigh, he said, “Why bother…”

Now that Ou Ming had angered Yu Lili, he wasn’t going to be in for a good time either.

For all they knew, Yu Lili could very well choose to abandon Ou Ming and return to the hotel without him. The blind man would be left on his own

Shen Zhilie perked up at the thought. Satisfaction flashed across his face.

Let the competition begin! We’ll see who’s left standing at the end!

For a good three to four minutes, no one cared about Ou Ming at all.
