"All these years, you don't seem to have aged at all." Ouyang Dihua lowered his eyes and smiled. Because his face did not have much light, he looked sickly.
"Really?" "Thank you for your praise." When Li Yi heard the phrase "you don't seem to be too old", she was overjoyed in her heart. Women are most afraid of aging, especially women of their age. They are even more afraid of others calling them old.
Seeing Li Yi smile at him, Ouyang Ziyun had a feeling that she had no regrets in this life. After all, the lover in his dreams was standing right in front of him right now.
Thinking about it carefully, Ouyang Shuo felt that he was really despicable, but he couldn't shake off his greedy nature. He was still moved when he saw Li Yi again.
"You're still so beautiful, but I??" "A lot older." Ouyang Dihua was silent for a moment, suddenly not knowing what topic to talk about.
"Everyone will age, it's just that I like to be pretty and focus on maintenance." Li Yi's eyes were full of smiles as she answered with a glowing face.
He was a rough guy. Normally, he never used those skincare products, not even during the bone-piercing winter. Ouyang, who studied medicine, studied the additives in skincare products. He knew too much, so he naturally didn't want to use them.
"This time, you've come??" Was it about the child? I... I'm really sorry." Ouyang Ziyun said in an apologetic tone.
Li Yi was silent for a while, then asked with uncertainty, "Yes, it is indeed about Xiao Mo. I just don't understand why you did that. You are not that kind of person. I was shocked to hear that it was related to you."
When Ouyang Ziyun heard Li Yi's words, she had a feeling that something was off. Li Yi said, "He's not that kind of person, then in her eyes, what kind of person is he?" Ouyang Ziyun wanted to know.
"What kind of person am I to you? It must be a bad guy." Ouyang Ziyun said with a coy smile and a joking tone in his voice, but he asked very seriously.
Ouyang Ziyun was looking forward to Li Yi's reply. This answer was very important to him. In his entire life, he had lived a lonely life. The only woman he had ever loved was Li Yi.
Li Yi smiled lightly, revealing a pair of cute dimples on her cheeks, "Not really. You are a person who does things very seriously, is very persistent, and doesn't admit defeat. You have very high self-esteem."
Ouyang Ziyun curled his lips, because what Li Yi said was completely true. He was actually such a person with a strong ego and jealousy. Ouyang Ziyun was not jealous of others. In this world, he was jealous of only one person, Sean.
Li Yi was a very smart woman, she knew what Ouyang Ziyun was thinking at the moment, so she purposely said what Ouyang Ziyun liked to hear, but in reality, Li Yi still hated Ouyang Ziyun as usual. Li Yi was too selfish, to harm an i ocent child for the sake of a little selfish desire, Li Yi really didn't want to forgive him.
The phrase "with a strong sense of self-esteem" didn't seem like a compliment, but it wasn't so derogatory either. Li Yi's tone was very gentle, causing Ouyang Xin's heart to feel warm.
"Am I really not a bad person in your eyes?" Ouyang Ziyun's eyes widened, his expression was filled with anticipation as he asked again, full of hope.
In her heart, Li Yi was about to vomit because of Ouyang Ziyun, but she adjusted her breathing and replied after being silent for a while, "Yes, she's not a bad person. I just don't understand why you did that."
"I... It's me... I was blinded by money, it was my fault." He heard Li Yi's answer and knew that he actually wasn't that bad in Li Yi's heart. Therefore, he was very happy in her heart and avoided talking about his original intentions.
To like a person, one must always be careful. Just like what Li Yi said just now, Ouyang Ziyun was a person with a lot of self-esteem.
Li Yi pursed her red lips. She suddenly thought of something in her heart: A human's heart is not worth swallowing an elephant. How could she like Ouyang Ziyun when his methods were so despicable? She coldly rejected him back then was the right choice, but Li Yi didn't know that her initial indifferent attitude would turn Ouyang Ziyun into a pervert in her heart.
Li Yi smiled faintly. Since she had already figured out Ouyang Shuo's intentions, Ouyang Ziyun did not want to talk about him liking her.
"How is the research and development on the antidote coming along?" Li Yi asked with a smile as she squinted her eyes.
Ouyang Ziyun lowered his head and looked down at the broken pieces of glass and the red liquid on the ground.
In fact, Ouyang Ziyun really wanted to develop an antidote. After all, this was one of his pleasures, and he knew that if he couldn't develop an antidote, he would definitely end up in a miserable state.
Ouyang Ziyun's heart was filled with a sense of crisis. Previously, he didn't really want to live anymore, but ever since he saw Li Yi again, a crazy thought surfaced in his mind. He must live on.
He had done so many bad things just to see Li Yi again. He thought that Li Yi would hate him, but she said that he had a good disposition and was just a bit stubborn. This answer was undoubtedly unexpected, and Ouyang Ziyun was both surprised and happy.
"Actually... We're almost done, but we still need a bit more time. Right now, I can't be sure how high the temperature of the virus will be, so we can only try again and again." Ouyang Ziyun seriously replied. He didn't know if Li Yi could understand.
Li Yi's eyes turned and she suddenly laughed. With a gentle tone, she asked, "Then, can I help you with something?"
Ouyang Ziyun pursed his lips, straightened his body, and said with a smile, "Can I call you Xiaoyi?"
Li Yi was slightly unhappy in her heart, but she still smiled humbly, "Of course you can."
"Little... Before I met you, I actually didn't want to live anymore, but after meeting you again, I wanted to live a good life. You know, I liked you before, I liked you very much, all these years, I never married, I don't know why I didn't get married, until I saw you again, I finally understood the answer." Ouyang Ziyun narrowed his eyes and said with an expression as deep as the ocean.
