The 99th Divorce

Yu Lili looked through the clothing. It was everything she needed. Under Ye Qianqian’s inquisitive gaze, she felt extremely uneasy.

She gave her a nudge and said, “What are you looking at? Whatever I have, you do too!”

Exactly! But, it wasn’t the same!

Ye Qianqian sniggered and looked away. “Head in and put on your clothes. I’m going out.”

Her reconnaissance had failed. From the looks of it, nothing had happened. Shen Zhilie must have been overthinking the situation.

When she went out, she made eye contact with Shen Zhilie and shrugged her shoulders, stating, “Alright then. It’s getting late. Go back and take a rest. I’ll wait for Lili here and go back with her.”

“I’ll wait for you girls. It’s not appropriate for you as a lady to be alone in the same room with another man.” Shen Zhilie’s eyes were alert. He looked Ou Ming once over with obvious disdain.

Ou Ming laid slouched against the headboard of the bed and ignored him.

The door to the bathroom soon opened, and Yu Lili walked out. Her hair was still damp and stuck to her head.

The moment she came out, she came face to face with Ye Qianqian and Shen Zhilie. She felt her skin begin to prickle.

“Yu, come here,” Ou Ming suddenly commanded as he sat up. His eyes were unfocused and staring blankly into nowhere.

Yu Lili saw it clearly. She was silently in awe of Ou Ming’s acting skills.

But, how can I go over? We were supposed to have broken up. I need to find a good opportunity to get back together first!

Ignoring Ou Ming, Yu Lili turned around and pulled Ye Qianqian up, saying, “Let’s go. Let’s go back.”

That was it! That was the normal way.

Shen Zhilie gave a quiet sigh of relief and turned to look at Ou Ming aggressively.

Ou Ming looked a little angry, but he kept his jaw clenched and didn’t say a word.

“We’ll make our move. Rest early, blind man! We’re going back to Kingstown tomorrow. You’ll be on your own!” Shen Zhilie waved his hand at Ou Ming and followed behind Ye Qianqian and Yu Lili.

Yu Lili did not look back at all the entire time. When Shen Zhilie noticed that, his heart, which had been unsettled the entire evening, finally calmed down.

Behind the two ladies, and in front of the blind man, Shen Zhilie didn’t bother to mask his emotions. His feelings were transparent for anyone to see.

Ou Ming narrowed his eyes as he watch Shen Zhilie exit and gave out a chuckle.

Poor guy! He actually thinks he won. Leave it be. His moment of tears will come soon.

Shen Zhilie sent Ye Qianqian and Yu Lili back their room. The moment he left, Ye Qianqian couldn’t resist pulling Yu Lili aside and asking curiously, “Hey, you really helped him shower? I heard from Shen Zhilie that you even helped him dress and undress. Didn’t you see everything, then?”

Yu Lili felt her guilty conscience rear its head when she heard that.

Not only had she seen everything, she had also done everything that she should have and shouldn’t have done. But, she couldn’t give it away at this point.

Yu Lili cleared her throat and gave Ye Qianqian a side-eye. “It’s not like it was my first time seeing it anyway. He could not see, and his hand was injured, so I…”

“You’re seriously too kind-hearted of a person! Don’t you remember what that man said about you? If it had been me, I definitely wouldn’t have helped him!” Ye Qianqian spat out at the injustice of it. She pulled Yu Lili’s hand and said, “But, I must say, you really gave Shen Zhilie a huge scare! You were both inside for so long. He thought that you had rekindled your romance with a passion, and… heh heh heh!”
