The 99th Divorce

The man was dressed in a smart, wine-red suit that had been carefully ironed so it looked flat and clean.

He leaned on the Bentley, holding a cigarette in his long fingers. When he saw them, he tossed the cigarette in the trash can near him and stood up straight.

It’s Ou Ming.

When Yu Lili saw him, she stopped smiling.

Ye Qianqian immediately recognized him at a glance.

Ye Qianqian looked at him in disbelief. I can’t believe someone this important is at the door of my apartment!

But why is he here?

Ye Qianqian turned her head and started to say something to Yu Lili, but she found that Yu Lili was staring seriously at Ou Ming. Ye Qianqian suddenly had an uneasy premonition and said, “He isn’t…”

Yu Lili looked at Ye Qianqian and said, “You go on upstairs. I have something to do first.”

Ye Qianqian was immediately astounded, and she stood there for a minute with her mouth open. It was amazing enough for her to know Li Jinnan and the psychiatrist, but now she apparently knows Ou Ming as well?!

How am I making it through life when I know nobody important?

Also, it seems that there’s some history between her and Ou Ming… Yu Lili really has so many secrets!

Hearing what Yu Lili said, Ye Qianqian looked at her, and then looked at Ou Ming and said slowly, “I’ll just head up to the apartment, then.”

“Sure.”

Ye Qianqian took her bike into the housing area, sneaking looks over her shoulder at every step, but Yu Lili was not in a hurry to walk toward Ou Ming.

That really… makes me anxious!

…

Looking at Ou Ming in front of her, Yu Lili smiled slightly, then walked toward him and said, “Congratulations, you’re getting married.”

Seeing her smile like that, Ou Ming didn’t feel happy at all.

He couldn’t help but reach out to her. “Yu.”

“Well?” Looking at Ou Ming and raising her eyebrow slightly, Yu Lili asked, “What?”

Pulling her into his arms, he said, “I won’t marry her. Give me some time, and I will marry you and make you my wife.”

Yu Lili looked up and leaned against his shoulder. She felt sad, and her heart hurt. But her face still held a slight smile, and she said, “Ou Ming.”

Her voice was soft and calm, which made Ou Ming feel more uncomfortable than hearing her shout. Ou Ming held onto her, unwilling to let her go.

Yu Lili gently pushed him, but she couldn’t push him away. She put her hands on his chest and asked, “Do you know that I am afraid?”

Ou Ming’s stomach knotted as he held her more tightly.

Yu Lili gave up pushing. Tears filled her eyes, and she couldn’t see things clearly. She could feel his breath and the heat from his chest, but she felt that they were separated by a gully that was deep and dark, and if she went too far forward, she would fall and be smashed to pieces on the rocks below.

“I’m afraid of your empty promises.” Her tears ran down her face, and she said. “I don’t want to be a mistress anymore or live with you without dignity. Do you remember what happened that night…?”

“Stop that!” As he held her shoulders in both hands, many emotions passed over Ou Ming’s serious face. “I’m sorry for what happened that night…”
