The 99th Divorce

“Did you hear that?” Li Jinnan said, putting his hands in his pockets. “He said he was not married.”

Ye Youyou put her hands together and bit her lip. Her emotions were swirling uneasily.

Yes, we aren’t married. In Shen Luo’an’s heart, maybe he believes that our marriage was just something he had to do. Why do I care so much?

I don’t care.

As long as I can be with him, it will be okay. It doesn’t matter if there is love or not; the marriage has already bound us together. It binds us together solidly. Unless I want to leave him, we will never be separated.

The choice is in my hands, isn’t it?

It doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter…

Li Jinnan noticed her emotional changes, and he looked at her tenderly and said, “He said he loved no one.”

Those words made her remember the time when she threatened to take her own life if Shen Luo’an didn’t marry her. Shen Luo’an had said to her: Ye Youyou, I can marry you, but I won’t love you. I lost the ability to love a long time ago.

He would marry her because of her threat, but he would not love her. At that time, she didn’t care, but she had ignored the most terrible flaw of humanity: greed. After marrying him, she wanted more and more…

Ye Youyou glanced at Li Jinnan, then stood up suddenly and ran out. Her eyes were full of tears, and she bit her lip and pressed the button for the elevator to take her downstairs.

Li Jinnan looked at her figure, then down at the wedding ring in his hand. He felt helpless.

Didn’t she come for the ring?

Now the ring is here, but she just runs away?

After getting off the elevator, Ye Youyou ran out the door and saw Shen Luo’an’s figure in front of her.

It was so familiar and so straight.

She stopped, and Shen Luo’an didn’t realize that Ye Youyou was behind him, facing his back. He looked at the news article that his mobile phone had just pushed: “To the satisfaction of all, Shen Manting, the daughter of the Shen family, has announced that she will marry Ou Ming, the Young Master of the Ou Group before New Year’s Day!”

Shen Luo’an looked at the news, smiled softly, and muttered to himself, “Can’t wait any longer? Or does she just want to warn me?”

Ye Youyou watched him walk away, but her feet seemed to be pinned to the ground. She couldn’t move.

Not far away, news headlines scrolled across the big screen in front of her, but the most eye-catching announcement was the coming marriage of Shen Manting and Ou Ming.

So Shen Manting will be married?

Ye Youyou relaxed and smiled happily.

When Yu Lili saw the news, her hands suddenly stopped typing.

Looking at the Tencent news popup in the lower right corner of the screen, she moved her mouse and clicked the article.

There was a picture of Ou Ming and one of Shen Manting’s selfies.

That’s nice. They will get married.

On Dec. 23rd of the lunar month. They will be able to celebrate the Chinese New Year together and live together after the wedding.

Yu Lili was inexpressibly depressed.

Since we have already broken up, why do I still care so much?

When Yu Lili closed the webpage and was about to continue working, the new receptionist shouted, “Yu Lili, someone is looking for you.”

Yu Lili looked up but couldn’t see who it was.

Standing up and walking towards the reception, the first thing that caught her eyes was a large bouquet of pink roses. Looking at the roses, she was surprised.

But then, the hands holding the bouquet lowered, and a face became visible behind the flowers.
