The little guy ran inside, and stumbled when he approached the sofa. Li Sicheng was a bit scared and amused at the same time. He couldn’t help but remind him, “Be careful.” With his back toward his dad, the little guy blushed even more. Keeping his head down, he ran inside.
Ou Ming was also laughing, and then ridiculed, “He is exactly the same as you when you were a child. Is this the first time he has called you dad?”
“Yeah.” Li Sicheng curled his lips and his cold eyes became softer. “The first time, it feels good.” This little guy, was a very… lovely character. Did he deliberately not call him, just to give him a surprise on his birthday? Li Sicheng’s black eyes were even softer. When he turned around, he found that Ou Ming’s eyes were filled with even more envy. Despite his smile, his eyes looked sad. Perhaps others couldn’t see Ou Ming’s emotions, but Li Sicheng had known him for more than 20 years and he knew him well. Seeing such an emotion, Li Sicheng could not help but frown. He stepped forward and said, “Let’s go.”
The small lake not far from the old house had been around for many years. When they were young, Ou Ming and Li Sicheng liked to sit and chat on the grass by the lake. In the daytime, they would sit and fish in the sun. At night, they would lie down and look at the stars. Such habits had been maintained until they graduated from college. After graduation, Ou Ming went to Europe for further studies, and Li Sicheng himself started a business. The days of gathering here were getting less and less. Once again lying in this place, they both felt quite emotional.
“Sicheng.”
“Yeah.” Li Sicheng put his hands under his head and looked at the sky.
Today, Kingstown had become a first-tier city. Most stars were no longer visible in the sky, unlike the old days. The stars were so scarce in the dark night sky that it looked bleak. For a long time, neither of them spoke. There were crickets chirping. With the breeze, it was cool and comfortable.
Li Sicheng looked into the night sky and slowly asked, “Who did you meet in the capital this time?”
Ou Ming was dazed, turned to look at Li Sicheng, and chuckled after a long while. “You live in my belly or what?”
Li Sicheng curled his lips and asked, “Yu Lili?”
“Yes.” hearing this name, Ou Ming’s eyes became deeper. He turned his head and looked back into the sky. In the darkness, there seemed to be a smiley face with a charming smile, looking down at him. “It was her.”
“She must have lived a miserable life.”
Ou Ming smiled even more. “How do you know?”
“Without you, she can’t live well.”
“Oh, you are worse than me. I didn’t think about making her life miserable.” Ou Ming shook his head and took his hands back. His voice sounded lonely. “Remember the reason why we met last time?”
“The woman had a miscarriage.”
“Well, for four years, I have always thought it was my fault. I crushed my own children.” Ou Ming’s voice was with whimpers. In the face of his only good brother, Ou Ming did not pretend to be tough. He looked sideways and said, “But, in fact… she took the medicine. She intended to get rid of the babies. They were twins…”
Li Sicheng felt that his heart was suddenly hit, and from the bottom of his heart, anger ran wild. Twins! Two babies! Li Sicheng suddenly knew what Ou Ming’s envy was about.
