The 99th Divorce

When Ye Qianqian heard Shen Luo’an’s question, she knew that he must have found out about Shen Manting’s departure.

She was silent for a moment. She actually felt a little upset.

When Shen Luo’an didn’t hear a reply from Ye Qianqian, he asked again, “Did she say anything to you before she left?”

Ye Qianqian thought for a while and sighed. She said, “I don’t know. I’m not close to Shen Manting. However, she’s definitely not in Kingstown anymore. If you look for her, perhaps you might be able to find her.”

Shen Luo’an began to panic when he heard that. He had never felt this way before. It was like the magnetic reaction he experienced every time he got close to Shen Manting. This feeling came from nowhere and was inexplicable.

The incomprehensible agitation caused Shen Luo’an to laugh humorlessly and retort, “Why should I look for her?”

The sadness that Ye Qianqian felt moments before turned to anger. Her temper erupted as she cursed, “Just go to hell!”

She hung up the phone and stomped her foot in anger.

Assh*le! Scoundrel! B*stard! Useless trash! Bl*ody f*cker!

Only after she hung up the phone did she remember that she was supposed to pass the phone to Shen Luo’an. Now, she didn’t want to.

What an assh*le!

“Qianqian, where are you?” someone called out from afar.

Ye Qianqian replied immediately, “I’m coming!”

This was Ou Ming’s and Yu Lili’s big day. She couldn’t be anxious. She had to be happy. Ye Qianqian calmed herself down. She took a long and deep breath before heading back out.

Ou Ming had already brought his bride into the bridal car. Everyone was cheering.

Ye Qianqian kept the phone inside her purse and followed along.

Shen Manting had left too suddenly. Shen Luo’an was having a hard time accepting it.

As he sat on Shen Manting’s bed, he stared blankly at the door, as if there were a voluptuous figure standing there.

Shen Manting left? In other words, going to Kingstown as Yu Lili’s bridesmaid had been nothing but a ruse. That women’s goal had simply been to escape from him.

Upon coming to that realization, Shen Luo’an suddenly found the situation laughable.

Escape from him? Who does Shen Manting think she was? Everything she had, everything she wanted, and everything she obtained, had been from the Shen family. Who does Shen Manting think she is able to escape? Who is she to just up and leave after she enjoyed everything she ever wanted? There is no such thing in the world as a free lunch!

Shen Luo’an got up from the bed viciously. He picked his phone up to make a call. “Help me look for a person.”

The person on the line had never heard Shen Luo’an speak in such an angry and panicky manner before. After a moment of surprise, the voice asked, “Who?”

“My woman, Shen Manting.”

The surrounding scenery fell back at a very fast pace as the plane rumbled forward. The long sound of a whistle came from the engines as everything around the plane grew smaller in the distance.

The view became higher, and the ground became further. Eventually, all that could be seen outside the window were white clouds. Shen Manting’s frayed nerves finally calmed down.

Perhaps it was because she had finally let go of the immense pressure that had been building up in her, but Shen Manting’s heart quivered. For an unknown reason, her eyes ached. Tears began pouring out.

Shen Manting was unable to restrain herself. She sobbed hard as huge tears rolled down her cheeks and got absorbed by the plush toy in her hands.

Goodbye, Shen Luo’an.
