Yu Lili was still panting, and her voice sounded slightly nasal. She tried her best to steady her breathing; then she put the phone to her ear.
"Yu Lili."
It was Ou Ming's voice!
Hearing Ou Ming say her name made her head ache. "Yeah. Ou Ming, where are you?"
There was a beat of silence on the other end before Ou Ming replied, "I'm at home! It's the New Year after all. When I left just now, I forgot to inform you. Are you home yet?"
"Yeah."
"Have you eaten?"
"Yeah." Yu Lili wanted to cry, so she bit down on her lip hard to prevent the dam from breaking, and sniffled instead.
"What did you have?"
"I had steak, a western meal." Her voice was very nasally.
When Ou Ming heard her, he calmed his emotions before asking, "Did you catch a cold?"
"Yeah. I was out in the cold today. I've taken some medicine. I should be fine by tomorrow."
