The 99th Divorce

“I meant it when I said. I’ll take responsibility for you. I won’t be accused of copping a feel.”

Shen Zhilie gazed intently at her and said, “Moreover, just now when I said I didn’t see a thing, I lied. I saw everything. Your chest is really flat.”

Ye Qianqian clenched her jaw and raised her hand to smack him on the face.

Shen Zhilie’s reflexes were very quick, so he immediately blocked her attack.

Ye Qianqian had another hand. Before she could even think to make use of it, Shen Zhilie had it firmly in his grasp.

“You’re f*cking…” She wanted to finish with “asking for it.”

Before she could finish her statement, Shen Zhilie bent his head and covered her mouth with his.

Ye Qianqian couldn’t believe it. Her eyes widened, and her body was frozen in shock.

The kiss ended very soon. Shen Zhilie got up and quickly said, “Have a good rest.”

Ye Qianqian continued to sit there dumbstruck. She stared blankly at the ceiling.

The light shining from the chandelier on the ceiling passed through the crystal prisms and split into the colors of the rainbow.

Her heart was beating wildly, but it was as if she had been suspended in reality. She couldn’t feel a thing.

Her ears were ringing. Ye Qianqian couldn’t regain her wits.

After a moment, she abruptly sat upright.

She looked that the door that Shen Zhilie had just closed behind him. Staring at the ceiling, she piercingly screamed, “Ahhhh! Shen Zhilie!”

Shen Zhilie was standing by the balcony. His face was on fire.

When he heard the way Ye Qianqian screamed, the intensity of the heat in his head increased.

What followed was the sound of the bedroom door opening.

Shen Zhilie’s guard immediately went up. He turned his head over to look. He saw Ye Qianqian limping over to him with a furious expression on her face.

Shen Zhilie’s guilty conscience began to act up. When he saw her clearly out for blood, he what at a further loss of what to do.

His actions had been done at the spur of the moment.

He’d kissed her cheek and her mouth. How hard was she going to hit him this time?

Oh god…

Shen Zhilie was hit with the sudden realization that life from then on was never going to be the same. However, when he saw Ye Qianqian shuffling over with revenge in her eyes, he still walked up to her.

He reached out to support her and said, “If your leg is lame, don’t keep using it. If you were to get injured again, I’m not going to take care of you.”

Ye Qianqian looked at his face. His expression was one of guilt and avoidance. Well, from the looks of it, he seemed to be somewhat repentant.

When saw his blushing face, the fury that had been boiling within her instantly dissipated.

With a straight face, Ye Qianqian said, “I have a few questions to ask. I want you to reply to me honestly.”

“Eh?”

Her reaction wasn’t in line with what he had expected. He was too stunned to give a cohesive reply.

He had thought that she would pummel him until he went onto his knees begging for mercy. He had even primed himself for that.

Yet, here she was, unexpectedly wanting to ask a few questions.

This has to be a trap!

But he really didn’t want to get beaten up.

“Go ahead and ask them.”

Shen Zhilie couldn’t give a damn anymore.

“First, do you…” Ye Qianqian’s face became increasingly redder, and her heartbeat sped up. She steeled herself and feigned courage as she loudly asked, “Do you like me?”

Shen Zhilie was quiet for a moment when he heard the question.

He saw how red her face was and earnestly nodded his head, “Yes.”

The barren land in Ye Qianqian’s heart was suddenly awash with blooming flowers.

Suppressing her reaction, Ye Qianqian maintained a straight face and asked, “When… When did it begin? Didn’t you like Yu Lili before? How did you experience a change of heart so quickly? Assh*le!”

The moment those words came out of her mouth, Ye Qianqian regretted them. It didn’t sound right to her.

Why on earth had she asked such a question?

What an idiot she was!

Imperceptibly, she raised her eyes to look at Shen Zhilie, waiting to see what his reaction would be.
