The 99th Divorce

The picture of Psyduck was staring back at her with its two round eyes, as if mocking her.

Guan Queye reached out and took the tumbler. She suddenly chuckled and remarked, “You still opened it after all. Thank you, Ye Youyou.”

Ye Youyou didn’t know how to react and instinctively looked at the bottle.

You still opened it after all. What was that supposed to mean?

Without waiting for Ye Youyou to respond, Guan Queye took the tumbler and raised her head to drink from it. The speed at which she was drinking was a little quick and urgent. Water droplets trickled down her chin and to her collarbone. Her wedding gown began to get wet.

Ye Youyou was crouched in front of Guan Queye and could clearly hear the sound of swallowing coming from her throat.

Guan Queye finally flung the tumbler aside and wiped her chin forcefully as she said, “Do you have any idea how much I envied you? Since I was young, I had been working so hard to do my best at everything. Daddy was always hoping that I’d be better than others, but I had lost my mother as a child.”

As Guan Queye spoke, she clumsily rose to her feet. “From what I heard, my mother died in childbirth when giving birth to me. My father is my only family in this world, and the only one who shares the same blood as me. Hence, his standards for me were very high. They were so high that I never had time for myself, and I could never do what I wanted to.”

Ye Youyou watched her and slowly got to her feet. She replied gently, “You did it, Queye. You’re very outstanding.”

“Heh…” Guan Queye’s tears streamed down her face as she looked at Ye Youyou. “What difference did that make? I was very outstanding, but the person I liked didn’t like me. I grew up with Shen Luo’an, but he got along so well with you. Ever since you arrived, his whole focus shifted to you. From middle school to high school, everyone knew you were best friends. As for me, I was nothing more than a kid who worked double hard for everyone’s approval.”

Ye Youyou gazed at her with complex emotions in her eyes and sorrow in her heart.

Guan Queye was actually jealous of me.

“Before high school, I had always thought that I was the best match for Shen Luo’an, but he just had to make such a wish on his birthday,” Guan Queye said. “Heh… Do you still remember what he wished for?”

Ye Youyou heard her but didn’t say a word. She remembered, of course she remembered.

I want to be with Ye Youyou. I want Ye Youyou to be my girlfriend.

This birthday wish had been made in front of all his friends and her friends. At that time, everyone had cheered and hooted. Ye Youyou had blushed and run out. Shen Luo’an gave chase and pulled her into an embrace, kissing her in the dark.

Everything happened so seamlessly. Without any official announcement, the two of them became a couple. However, that incident had happened later on.

“It was publicly acknowledged that you were a match made in heaven. I could only smile and give my blessings. I couldn’t show any unhappiness at all,” Guan Queye laughed maniacally. “Heaven knows I was so jealous of you I could go mad. I was always wishing when the both of you hugged each other that you’d be run over by a car or struck by lightning!”

At that moment, hearing Guan Queye utter the childish but undeniably sinister curse was chilling to the bone.
