The 99th Divorce

Li Jianyue’s heart bloomed with happiness. “Sure! That’s exactly what I think too. Mom and Dad have said that although I’m not as intelligent as Brother, I’ve always had the most luck since I was young. Since I was a little girl, I would always win in lucky draws, even when it came to miscellaneous objects. I also have the world’s best father, the world’s best mother, the world’s best grandparents, and Brother.” As she spoke, her eyes twinkled. She looked up at Li Mosen and said, “And I have you!”

Li Mosen felt a warm current flow through his heart. He couldn’t contain the smile spreading across his face as he replied, “Yeah.”

“We’re here,” Uncle Yang said as he stopped the car and pulled on the handbrakes.

Li Jianyue got up immediately. She quickly opened the car door and alighted.

Li Mosen watched her skip into the house, carrying her schoolbag on her back. He had been in a black mood the whole day. Finally, he brightened up.

Li Jianyue felt that Li Mosen was in a good mood that day. His smile never left his face even when he went for his evening run.

Yu Chulin noticed Li Mosen’s unusual demeanor. He knew deep down the reason for it. He smiled as he called out, “Hey, Mosen!”

Li Mosen turned around and glanced at Yu Chulin. Li Mosen’s imperceptible smile reflected his apparent good mood. It was in stark contrast to Li Mosen’s hostility toward Yu Chulin not too long ago. “Would you like to play ball?” he asked with a deep smile.

“Sure,” Li Mosen said, raising brows. “Come on, Dasu! You too!”

Li Jianqian was panting slightly after his run. He nodded his head when he felt the competitive spirit in the air.

Li Jianyue had just come out of the shower. When she heard them talking about a one-on-one game of basketball, she scampered down the stairs. Li Jianyue crouched in a corner, waiting to watch them play.

Su Qianci and Li Sicheng had also come out for a walk. They noticed the commotion straight away. Under the night sky, the three teenagers were sweating profusely on the sprawling basketball court. An atmosphere of youth and vitality filled the air.

The smile on Su Qianci’s face maintained its gentleness as she held her husband’s arm and said, “The children have all grown up.”

Li Sicheng revealed a warm and gentle expression reserved only for his wife. His lips curved into a smile when he saw how happy Su Qianci looked. “They have indeed grown up. We can now rest assured. After Dasu graduates, I’ll hand over the company to him, and we’ll travel the world.”

Su Qianci cast a glance at him. “Dasu is still so young! Can’t you let him enjoy his youth for another couple of years?” she said, expressing her slight objection.

“Why should I? After all, children are meant to be employed,” Li Sicheng said with a straight face. “In this family, other than Ersu and Moyun, everyone else is free to be employed.”

Li Jianyue had a sharp hearing. She stood up immediately when she heard her Dad’s remarks. “Dad,” she exclaimed, “how can you say that? I can be employed too! Though I’m only in Year 1 of Senior High, I intend to do an internship with the company in my third year!”

Although Li Jianyue wasn’t exactly the brightest tool in the shed, she was always the cutest since a young age. Her appearance also resembled Su Qianci the most. Among his three children, Li Sicheng doted on her the most because of the guilt he had about her childhood.

He felt very pleased when he heard his daughter express herself in such a mature way. “You’ve really grown up,” he said, smiling.

Li Jianyue took his words as a compliment and said smugly, “But of course!”

Su Qianci burst out laughing. “Speaking of which,” she said, “Mosen is taking his college entrance examinations this year. Have you asked him which university he intends to enroll in?”

“I did! He said he wants to enroll in Kingstown University!” Li Jianyue said excitedly.

Kingstown University was one of the best and leading universities in Kingstown.

Although it was a leading university, it was still within the vicinity of Kingstown.

Given Li Mosen’s talent, it went without saying that he could easily apply to a better university if he wanted to.
