The 99th Divorce

If not for Old Mrs. Shen’s cold treatment toward her, Ye Youyou probably wouldn’t have been so resolute in her decision to get divorced.

She wouldn’t be enjoying the life she currently had. Her current circumstances were all thanks to Old Mrs. Shen.

However, hearing Ye Youyou call her “Auntie” repeatedly made Mrs. Shen’s heart ache.

As she looked down, she noticed Ye Youyou instinctively and subconsciously placing her hand on her abdomen and came to a realization.

After a long moment, she nodded her head and said, “That period of time was hard on you.”

That period of time…

Ye Youyou felt her eyes starting to sting and quickly made an effort to smile. She replied, “Not at all. We’ll leave now. Goodbye.”

“Goodbye.”

Ye Youyou tugged Li Jinnan along as she turned. She could feel her heart aching.

Li Jinnan followed quietly beside her without saying a word.

When they were out of the courthouse, Li Jinnan gently pulled her to him and asked, “Are you alright?”

Ye Youyou turned toward his embrace and quietly replied, “I’m fine. I’m just a little upset.”

“What are you upset about?” Li Jinnan’s voice was soft and a little hoarse.

What was she upset about?

Ye Youyou wasn’t sure what it was that she was upset about either.

After half a beat, she replied, “Things may remain the same, but people change. I’m just feeling a little wistful.”

“Let’s go back.”

“Yeah.”

Just as they reached the parking lot, they could see from afar that Li Jinnan’s black sedan was covered with a layer of colorful paint.

The fumes from the paint were pungent.

Ye Youyou was shocked when she saw it. She looked at Li Jinnan.

Li Jinnan’s brows shot together. Clearly, he hadn’t expected such a scenario either.

Probing the situation further, Li Jinnan pressed a button on the car key. As expected, the headlights on the car lit up.

Their car had been vandalized.

This was the first time Ye Youyou and Li Jinnan had experienced such a incident.

As they stood rooted to the spot, an individual walked out from behind the car.

It was Ye Tian.

She was dressed in a beautiful and elegant couture dress paired with high heels. She looked the epitome of style and sophistication.

With a handbag in her hand, she walked over. When she saw Li Jinnan, there was obvious hatred in her eyes.

“I’ve finally found you, my dear daughter.”

Judging from Ye Tian’s demeanor, it was clear that she had come with ill intentions.

Ye Youyou observed how Ye Tian was behaving. The warm and gentle image of Ye Tian in the past had gradually been disassociated from her.

Whatever familial sentiments they may have shared as mother and daughter had completely disappeared when Ye Tian had slapped Ye Youyou on Guan Queye’s wedding day.

“You did this?”

Li Jinnan’s eyes were cold. He voiced the question without any expression on his face.

When Ye Tian heard Li Jinnan’s question, she laughed sarcastically and replied, “So what if I did? Don’t blame me. You’re the brat who refused to listen when I spoke nicely. Considering the fact that you seduced my daughter, you deserve to have your car destroyed.”

Such barbaric words angered Li Jinnan to the point of laughter.

Li Jinnan took his phone out and proceeded to dial 110[1].

When Ye Tian saw that he was phoning someone, her expression changed. She demanded, “Bastard, what are you up to?”

“Who are you calling a bastard?”

Li Jinnan didn’t bother to answer her question.

The call connected quickly. Li Jinnan spoke into the phone, “Hello, Police? I am currently at the entrance of the People’s Court…”

The expression on Ye Tian’s face turned ugly. She yelled, “You scumbag! How dare you! You seduce my daughter, yet dare to call the cops on me?”

As she spoke, she hurried over and reached her hand out, intending to snatch the phone.

Before she could even touch Li Jinnan’s hand, he dodged her.

Ye Tian stumbled and almost fell face-flat on the ground.
