The 99th Divorce

Ye Qianqian had the strength to deal with him at first but soon succumbed to his passion.

“Take it slow… go slower…”

Yet, Shen Zhilie was already going hard and fast and had no intention of stopping.

Toward the end, he leaned panting next to her and whispered in her ear, “I want a child.”

Ye Qianqian narrowed her eyes and hugged him. Her eyes were almost teary as she whispered back, “That’s… that’s not an excuse for having your way with me. Get… lost…”

Shen Zhilie laughed, rolled over, and kissed her even harder.

Shen Manting had initially intended to find Ye Qianqian to ask her something. However, she heard faint voices coming from inside when she reached the door.

They made no effort to conceal the noise. Even though the sound could only be heard vaguely through the door, Shen Manting heard everything clearly as she stood outside the room.

She instinctively froze and decided to not knock on the door anymore.

Her cheeks started burning. Provocative images that embarrassed her flashed across her mind.

She hadn’t witnessed them in action before, but she knew what was going on inside.

She withdrew from the door and headed back to her room.

She picked up her phone and fiddled with it for a while. Finally, she managed to open the internet browser.

She landed on the homepage of a search engine.

She tapped on the “Search” icon and a keyboard interface automatically popped up.

She typed into the search bar: How to make my husband happy?

She tapped on the first result of the search, titled “Ten little things that make your husband feel satisfied.”

Shen Manting browsed through the webpage for some time before exiting the page, blushing.

Shen Luo’an returned home late that night at nearly 11 p.m.

He opened the door to a darkened room.

The child had no doubt fallen asleep by now.

Just as he was about to turn on the lights, the room was suddenly lit up.

Shen Luo’an was startled to see Shen Manting standing beside the light switch, clad in a nightgown.

“You’re home, honey.” Shen Manting walked up to him. “I’ll take off your coat for you.”

Shen Luo’an was taken aback by the attention she showered on him and stared at her.

Shen Manting ran her fingers over his coat and removed it for him.

Then, she hung his coat up and said, “Wait here a minute. I’ll run the bath for you.”

Shen Luo’an looked at her curiously and asked, “What’s going on?”

Shen Manting blushed and insisted, “I’m only helping you run the bath.”

Then, she went into the bathroom.

Shen Luo’an felt a rush of warmth in his heart when he heard the sound of running water coming from the bathroom.

He walked into the bathroom and saw Shen Manting sitting on the edge of the bathtub, staring at the hot water flowing into the tub.

She stood up immediately when she heard him approaching.

Shen Luo’an glanced at her with a slightly confused expression as he slowly walked over to her. “What’s the matter with you today?” he asked.

Shen Manting looked down, embarrassed. “It’s nothing…” she murmured.

“Hmm?”

“I… I hope to be a loving wife.” Shen Manting looked insecure and glanced up at him with a sparkle in her clear, innocent eyes. “From now on, honey, I’ll run the bath for you every day. I don’t know how to prepare breakfast for you before you leave for work, but I’ll fasten your tie for you!”

The glint of hope shining in her eyes was alluring.

Shen Luo’an’s heart fluttered as he stared at his lovely wife in front of him.

“I’ll learn how to make lunchboxes…” she trailed off and gasped, startled by his sudden embrace. “What… what’s the matter?”

Shen Luo’an hugged her tightly in his arms.

Shen Manting wasn’t sure if her gut feeling was right, but she sensed… fear in him.

But wasn’t he a man?

Why would a man be fearful of anything at all?
