The 99th Divorce

“I’ll get the household register,” Shen Zhilie said softly as he held Ye Qianqian’s head in his palms. “We’ll go get the marriage certificate tomorrow. Your grandfather’s passed away. I haven’t paid my respects to him yet. I’ll pay a visit tomorrow.”

Ye Qianqian was shocked. “How on earth do you know that?”

“Your sister told me yesterday.” Shen Zhilie’s guilt was visible through his eyes. “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have paid attention to the things happening around you. If she didn’t tell me yesterday, I’m afraid I wouldn’t know today.”

Ye Qianqian pursed her lips and suddenly felt a wave of sadness. She opened her arms wide to hold Shen Zhilie and said softly, “I don’t blame you. It was me. I didn’t believe you at all.”

Shen Zhilie rested his chin on her head and replied softly, “Qianqian, no matter what happens in the future, you have got to believe me. As long as you ask me anything, I will not lie to you.”

“Okay.”

“If I ever do anything to hurt you, you’re welcome to stab me to death.”

“Pfft…” Ye Qianqian smiled. She patted his chest gently and said in a delicate voice, “Get yourself out of here. I will go to jail if I actually do stab you to death!”

Shen Zhilie also smiled and released her gently from his grasp. Then, he packed some simple clothes and stuffed them directly into Ye Qianqian’s suitcase. Afterward, he dashed into his parents’ room, took the household register, and sneaked back.

When Ye Qianqian and Shen Zhilie walked out of the room, Old Mrs. Shen was having breakfast. Noticing that they were carrying a bag, her guard immediately went up, and she asked, “Where are you going?”

“I’ll be on my way first, Grandma, Uncle, and Auntie. Thank you for your hospitality,” Ye Qianqian said with a smile on her face. “I have to go back to work tomorrow. ”

“What about Zhilie?”

“Of course I’ll bring her to the airport.”

I myself might as well go to Yun Town to have a look around.

But he didn’t manage to say this sentence out loud. He simply boldly grabbed Ye Qianqian’s suitcase and went outside.

They took about fifty minutes to get to the airport by taxi. They bought the earliest tickets to Yun Town airport and boarded the plane in no time. When they arrived in Yun Town, it was about 11 a.m. They had already eaten something on the plane, so they went straight home.

Someone in town noticed Ye Qianqian and was a little surprised. But upon seeing the young man next to her, they all began to gossip enthusiastically about it. “Isn’t that her former boyfriend?”

“The one who did that awful thing to Fang Tongtong?”

“I don’t think so. How could he have done that sort of thing and still be together?”

“If it isn’t him, she switches her boyfriends way too quickly…”

…

Of course, Ye Qianqian also noticed the judging eyes fixed on her. She just didn’t care. She held Shen Zhilie by his hand and took him home.

When they entered the room, Ye Zhenhua was very surprised. He exclaimed as he looked at Ye Qianqian and Shen Zhilie, “You… Why are you together again? Didn’t you break up? ”

Ye Qianqian was a little embarrassed. She coughed softly, “We got back together again.”

Seeing his daughter’s face blush, Ye Zhenhua felt that it was strange. He looked at Shen Zhilie with a smile and said, “Here you are?”

“Here I am.” Shen Zhilie smiled brightly, revealing eight sparkling white teeth. “Uncle, I’m here to pay my respects to Grandpa.”

“All right.” Ye Zhenhua put down the flowers in his hand and walked Shen Zhilie inside.

Grandpa’s memorial hall was set up in the living room. He smelled the fragrance of incense as soon as they entered the room. Ye Zhenhua handed some incense over to Shen Zhilie. He lit three of them, knelt, and rested his head on the ground to pay his respects. “Father, Qianqian’s boyfriend has come to see you.”
