The 99th Divorce

Ye Qianqian’s heart suddenly skipped a beat. She instinctively looked down at her palm. It looked no different from usual.

“What’s wrong?”

Ye Qianqian felt a little unsettled. A strange feeling came over her as she looked at the old lady.

She had heard of the old lady’s mysterious inclinations and knew she was a firm believer in the supernatural. The moment she predicted something was wrong, there was no changing her mind.

Ye Youyou was a living example of that.

If it weren’t for this old lady, perhaps Ye Youyou and Shen Luo’an wouldn’t be divorced.

Although Ye Youyou was happier with Li Jinnan than she had ever been with Shen Luo’an, at the end of the day, Shen Luo’an was still Ye Youyou’s first love. They had grown up together and been in love for a long time. It went without saying that they should have been an ideal couple.

Guan Queye had been locked away in the hospital for most of their marriage and hadn’t interfered with them during that time.

Without this old lady’s constant objection, perhaps Shen Luo’an would have slowly come to discover Ye Youyou’s goodness, and his feelings for her would have grown. Ye Youyou might have been able to get her happily ever after with Shen Luo’an.

Unfortunately…

That kind of perfection only existed in dreams. In reality, this old lady had stood between the couple.

The moment Ye Qianqian heard the old lady’s words, a premonition came over her.

“Your hand…” Mrs. Shen’s frown deepened. “It does look pretty good. It’s a reading of riches and wealth. When were you born?”

“Well…” Ye Qianqian thought about it for a moment and decided to reveal her birthday.

“And the hour?”

“Somewhere between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m.”

“Your horoscope is a little less than ideal, but your facial features are different from Ye Youyou’s. Your face carries a destiny of riches and wealth, as well as good fortune as a whole. Why is there a break in the line in the middle of your palm? It looks a little inauspicious. ”

Ye Qianqian’s heart started beating faster. She tentatively asked, “Grandma, what does that mean?”

“To put it bluntly, it’s a sign of a short life.”

Ye Qianqian’s hands trembled when she heard that.

“The sign of a short life?”

Ye Qianqian began to feel frightened. Did this mean that she didn’t have long to live?

“I’ll admit that I have not read many palms. From what I have come across, the one that has had the best destiny was Yu Lili. I think you know her, don’t you?”

When Old Mrs. Shen mentioned Yu Lili, a smile that reached her eyes appeared on her face. “Lili didn’t have much luck before she was 25 years old. Once she crossed that mark, everything was destined to become smooth-sailing!”

Ye Qianqian had heard Yu Lili’s story before and felt a little awkward. She replied, “I heard Lili mention before that she was destined to have a son and a daughter. Lili recently had a checkup. She’s expecting a child.”

“Yes, Lili will give birth to a son and a daughter. I’m semi-celestial. What I say won’t be wrong.”

While Mrs. Shen spoke, she looked Ye Qianqian’s palm up and down and left and right. Finally, she put her hand down.

“Qianqian, did you ever injure your hand or were you born this way?”

“Um, I think I was born this way.” Ye Qianqian glanced at her palm and saw that there was a faint red line in the middle.

Unless it was scrutinized closely, it was impossible to tell how that red line differed from the other lines on a palm.

Ye Qianqian looked at it for a long time and said, “I think this is a birthmark.”
