The 99th Divorce

When Ye Youyou saw the message, she immediately replied, “What should I post?”

[Mila]: Highlight your status as the victim and make yourself seem helpless. But you mustn’t come across as too weak. Otherwise, the public will think that you’re putting on a show. Try to think of something.

When she saw the reply, Ye Youyou thought deeply. Immediately, she replied with three words to Mila: “I trust him.”

When Mila saw those three words, she was taken aback and instantly sent a thumbs-up emoticon together with the word, “Approved,” back to Ye Youyou.

After Ye Youyou read the reply, she snapped a selfie on the sofa and posted it on Weibo, coupled with the preapproved words.

For the following few minutes, no one seemed to care. After all, she was only a small starlet, and it was normal for her to escape anyone’s notice. Ye Youyou wasn’t too bothered. She put her cell phone down and headed into the shower.

When she returned after removing her makeup and applying her facemask, she realized that her post had erupted on Weibo.

[Miss Fanfan is the best]: What the hell? She still trusts him despite such conclusive evidence? It must be true love.

[Flower under the cloud]: Girl, although I don’t know you, I pity you. You should divorce such a man soon. –hearts-

[Little Lolita]: I watched the series you acted in, A Military Adventure. Although you aren’t very well-known yet, I can tell you’re a very hard-working person. Good luck! –hearts-

[The Shen Siblings should just die]: You still trust him after this? Are you mentally ill?

…

Because of this news, the number of fans Ye Youyou had suddenly soared.

The statistics usually bounced around, but this was the first time Ye Youyou had experienced such a significant increase in her number of fans.

“Do you know how all the major stars got popular? 30% hard work, 30% luck, and the rest was from creating publicity!”

Those were Mila’s words.

Take advantage of the situation, create publicity.

When Yu Lili reached the airport, it was the day before New Year’s Eve. She wrapped herself up well to avoid being recognized and photographed.

She had initially planned on not coming back to China, but Ou Ming had messed all those plans up.

Upon reaching China, Yu Lili had all her luggage taken care of back at home before giving Ou Ming a call.

Ou Ming had been very busy recently. The year was coming to an end, and there were many matters in the company waiting to be resolved. Furthermore, there was the issue with Mom, the issue with the Shens, the issue with the wedding…

One by one, these problems were piling up. When Ou Ming received Yu Lili’s call, it was two in the afternoon while he was having lunch.

“Ou Ming?” the sound of Yu Lili’s voice came through.

Ou Ming sipped a spoonful of soup and replied, “Yeah?”

“I’m back in China.”

Ou Ming choked on his soup, then coughed it up vehemently.

He grabbed a piece of tissue and cleaned up the mess. “Now?”

“Yeah.” Yu Lili heard the surprise in his voice and continued, “I’m alone at home now. Ye Qianqian went home for the New Year.”

“Did anyone follow you?” Ou Ming laid down his chopsticks worriedly. “Why didn’t you tell me that you were coming back?”

“I was afraid you wouldn’t let me return. I miss you.” Yu Lili’s tone betrayed a sense of wariness. “When I got off the plane, I wrapped myself up well. No one could recognize me. It’ll be fine.”

Ou Ming’s temper had been placated the moment he heard the words “I miss you.” His expression softened, and he murmured, “Wait for me. I’ll head over to you now.”

Yu Lili’s knitted brows relaxed, and she nodded her head happily. “Okay.”
