The 99th Divorce

Li Jinnan was annoyed and sullenly asked, “Second Brother, am I that unwelcome here?”

Li Sicheng looked at him lazily and asked in return, “Why are you asking the obvious?”

Su Qianci chuckled and nudged Li Sicheng. She admonished, “How can you treat your younger brother this way? Be careful that the children don’t pick it up from you.”

Li Sicheng held Su Qianci close and murmured, “Don’t worry. My sons won’t do that.”

Su Qianci turned her head away in faux annoyance and noticed Ye Youyou. She was taken aback and exclaimed in surprise, “Youyou? Ah…”

Ye Youyou was a little shy and called out, “Hi, Qianci.”

“Oh my god! You’re seeing my brother-in-law?” Su Qianci couldn’t believe it. She looked toward Li Jinnan and said, “You act really fast!”

It was only a few days ago that she had heard that Ye Youyou had gotten divorced. Now, in the blink of an eye, she was together with Li Jinnan.

Oh, but of course…

Li Jinnan already held a torch for Ye Youyou from before. When Su Qianci heard that he was bringing his girlfriend home, she thought about the fact that Ye Youyou had just gotten a divorce and assumed it wouldn’t be her. Unexpectedly, it was indeed Ye Youyou.

Su Qianci was dazed. Considering how close they were, the chances were that something had already been brewing before Ye Youyou’s divorce.

She suddenly felt really guilty and evil for thinking that, but the thought refused to budge. As she looked at Ye Youyou and Li Jinnan, she was suddenly filled with curiosity in regards to the details of their relationship.

Ye Youyou was embarrassed by Su Qianci’s candid remark. “Um… Actually, it isn’t that fast.”

Li Jinnan, on the other hand, was a lot less bothered. He openly hooked his arm around Ye Youyou’s shoulder and replied, “Not at all. In any case, I’m showing her off to you now.”

He turned around to face Li Mosen and said, “Mosen, call Dasu and Ersu out. I want them to meet your future aunt.”

Li Mosen quickly turned and ran in when he heard that, calling along the way, “Dasu! Ersu!”

Su Qianci felt sympathetic and asked, “Has Grandfather been very bored at home lately? I thought having Liu Sao keep him company would be enough. After all, they get along very well together. I was afraid the children would be too noisy and disturb the elderly.”

“Not at all. They are, after all, his great-grandchildren. Grandfather loves them so much, so there’s no way he’ll mind the noise at all.” Li Jinnan pulled Ye Youyou down to sit on the couch. “Moreover, the soundproofing in Grandfather’s room is very good, and the house is big. If Grandfather finds it noisy, he’ll know where to hide. You don’t have to worry.”

Su Qianci understood and nodded her head. “You’ve clearly thought it through. It didn’t even occur to me.”

Li Sicheng could identify his motives right away and said, “That could be one of the reasons, but your main reason is that you want to make use of the children, isn’t it?”

Li Jinnan’s expression sank when he heard that. “Second Brother, how could you say that? I’m doing this for Grandfather’s benefit. I’m concerned that he’ll be bored at home. That’s why I thought of bringing the kids back.”

“Yeah, and along the way, you’ll borrow the mouth of the kids to tell Dad and Mom that you’ve gotten yourself a girlfriend. Only, when they start to interrogate, you will put on an act and pretend to be hesitant about telling them the whole story. After that, you’ll set a trap for Dad and Mom… Tch!” Li Sicheng couldn’t bear to look at him. “What an unfilial son!”

Ye Youyou and Su Qianci hadn’t even thought that deeply. They both stared at Li Sicheng.

Li Jinnan grew a little sheepish and rubbed his nose as he asked his brother, “How did you know?”
