The 99th Divorce

“It’s quite the coincidence. I didn’t know you were in Kingstown too.” As Li Jinnan spoke, he glanced at Ye Youyou fleetingly and didn’t look at her again.

Ye Qianqian gave a polite laugh and replied, “I work at Eurasian Comics. So, naturally, I’ll be in Kingstown. As for Youyou, she’s come to Kingstown for a break to relax. After all, she’s stayed in the hospital for so long. It’s about time for her to come out and stretch her legs a little. Am I right, Youyou?”

Ye Youyou forced her lips up into a smile when she heard the question directed at her and nodded her head.

It was only then that Li Jinnan directed his gaze at her. He looked at her injured arm and asked, “Have you recovered from your injuries?”

“I’m almost fully recovered, GM Li,” Ye Youyou lowered her head and replied.

Ye Youyou was extremely ill at ease. Ye Qianqian understood that the relationship between them was complicated and could tell from one glance that something was up.

However, Luo Zhan had always been insensitive. He took one look and asked, “Miss Ye, is this your sister?”

Ye Qianqian was happy to have a change of topic and replied, “Yeah, her name is Ye Youyou. She was supposed to be the second female lead in ‘The Lonely Swordsman.’ Unfortunately, she got injured while doing the stunts. It was a pity.”

Luo Zhan empathized when he heard that. “What a pity! It was a really good opportunity. Sigh, let’s not talk about this anymore. Get ready, Everyone! We’re going to play ball!” As he spoke, he clapped his hands together. Burning with eagerness, he draped his arm across Li Jinnan’s shoulder and exclaimed, “It’s been a long time since I’ve had a match with you. Come, let’s have a game!”

Li Jinnan seemed to be in a good mood. The corners of his mouth lifted in a smile as he replied, “You could never defeat me in the past. What makes you think you can win now?”

That statement was clearly a gauntlet thrown down. A sense of competition erupted in Luo Zhan. He yelled out, “Woah! You seem pretty confident of yourself! If I don’t annihilate you today, my family name isn’t Luo!”

The two men draped their arms over each other’s shoulders. As Ye Qianqian watched the retreated image of Li Jinnan’s back, she leaned over to Ye Youyou and whispered, “From what I see, your boss treats you really well. It’s about time you dumped that bast*rd Shen Luo’an on his ass and chased after the Young Master Li.”

“What are you talking about?” Ye Youyou nudged her. “How would such a man ever want a woman who has been divorced? Stop daydreaming. He’s my boss. It’s only normal that he would show me some concern. It’s not as dramatic as you think it is.”

Furthermore, at that moment, Shen Luo’an was extremely averse to the idea of a divorce. More importantly, she wasn’t good enough for Li Jinnan. A man like Li Jinnan deserved a better girl.

Ye Youyou began to regret her decision. If she had known Li Jinnan was going to be there, she would never have come along with Ye Qianqian on the outing.

It was true that Li Jinnan hadn’t said anything to her. He hadn’t even hinted at anything. But, his constant instinctive concern toward Ye Youyou made her feel extremely uncomfortable.

After all, they still had that ridiculous night existing between them. It made it very difficult for her to treat him as she would any other man. It was possible that she was overthinking everything.

Perhaps he treats everyone in the same manner? Ye Youyou was lost in her own thoughts and not paying attention to her surroundings.

Before she knew it, Yu Lili appeared out of nowhere together with a little girl and instructed her. “Ersu, this is Auntie Qianqian.”

Li Jianyue’s huge round eyes widened as she looked at Ye Qianqian and obediently greeted in her sweet, innocent voice, “Hello, Auntie Qianqian.”

“This is Auntie Youyou,” Yu Lili said.

“Hello, Auntie Youyou.” Li Jianyue was holding Yu Lili’s hand. She looked up at Yu Lili and asked, “Auntie Lili, where is my mommy?”
