The 99th Divorce

Yu Lili ignored him. She didn’t want to know what Shen Manting had said about her.

“Ding!”

The doors opened, and Yu Lili helped Ou Ming out of the elevator. She turned to Shen Zhilie and said, “I can go in by myself. Thank you, Mr. Shen.”

Shen Zhilie was not stupid. He could hear the deliberate alienation in Yu Lili’s words, but he wasn’t going to let her go that easily. He pretended not to notice and said, “You’re welcome. Although, since we are neighbors, it would be rude if I didn’t help you get him inside.”

With that, he pulled Ou Ming out of the elevator and took him to the front door. Yu Lili looked at him suspiciously and quickly typed in the password. She noticed that Shen Zhilie had the courtesy to turn his head as she typed. She breathed a sigh of relief and helped him carry Ou Ming into the apartment.

Ou Ming opened his eyes as he stumbled into the living room. When he saw that he was home, he pushed Shen Zhilie away and sat down on the couch with a sigh.

His voice was thick with wine as he shouted, “Yu!”

“I’m here,” she said and hurried toward him.

When Ou Ming saw her, he laughed and pulled her over. “You are back. I missed you,” he said lovingly.

Yu Lili was touched but embarrassed that Shen Zhilie had heard him. She blushed, gently pushed him away, and said, “Knock it off, somebody is here.”

Despite her warning, Ou Ming continued, “Yu Lili, I love you. I love you so much. What should I do? Are you toxic? Um?”

His drunken words excited her. Yu Lili’s heart began to beat faster as she listened to him ramble. Ou Ming had never behaved or spoken to her like this before.

Isn’t it true that drunkenness reveals that which soberness conceals?

When Ou Ming looked at her, his eyes were tender and sweet. Yu Lili could see her reflection in his beautiful, peach blossom eyes. He leaned closer to her, put his hands around her face, and kissed her passionately.

Yu Lili resisted because Shen Zhilie was still standing there. Subconsciously, she looked his direction. She tried to get Ou Ming off of her, but he was drunk and too heavy to move.

Embarrassed, but unsure of what else to do, Shen Zhilie stared at them. He was unspeakably annoyed at both Ou Ming and Yu Lili.

I’m his future brother-in-law. Although I know that Ou Ming has a mistress, I cannot bear to see him kissing her so frankly! But what can I do?

At that moment, Shen Zhilie felt incredibly awkward not only because of the situation but because of his relationship to Shen Manting.

What should I do? Do I need to beat him up? Even then, I’m not angry enough to fight him.

Shen Zhilie also felt a little sorry for himself because Yu Lili turned out to be Ou Ming’s mistress. He liked her. Shen Zhilie waited a few moments for them to stop. When they didn’t, he turned around and closed the door quietly behind him.

“I love you, too,” Yu Lili said softly and raised her head to meet Ou Ming’s.

Even though Ou Ming was drunk, he knew it was Yu Lili that he was holding. When he heard her words, he smiled softly. He held her on the sofa and did what he wanted to do.

Ou Ming held her tightly as they lay on the sofa. He closed his eyes and fell asleep with a grin on his face.
