The 99th Divorce

After the waiter walked in with the dining cart, he bowed to Yu Lili and said in poor Chinese, “Please enjoy your meal.”

“Thank you.” Yu Lili put down the food cover and looked at the breakfast. She was not in a good mood.

After she listlessly finished the breakfast, she checked the time. It was already past noon.

Paris was sunny that day, so Yu Lili dressed herself up. She grabbed a small bag and went out to see the tallest building in Paris, the Eiffel Tower.

She tried to leave the hotel as secretly as possible to avoid meeting Shen Zhilie or Ou Ming. Fortunately, they seemed to not notice her.

After she took a taxi to the Eiffel Tower, she bought a ticket and went inside. There were quite a few visitors, but not as many as she imagined. Yu Lili felt that she could bear that amount of visitors.

She lined up and walked into the elevator, which was designed for sightseeing. When the elevator couldn’t hold any more people, the door was closed.

As the elevator gradually rose, the clouds lingering in the sky also rose. What a nice view! The scenery on the ground gradually moved away from her. It was a much different feeling than being in a plane.

Somebody seemed to be moving behind her. She clearly felt it but didn’t pay attention to it. She fixed her eyes on the scenery outside. There were too many things to see.

“Is the scenery beautiful?” A low voice whispered her ears.

The shock Yu Lili felt made the smile on her face suddenly disappear. As she turned her head to see who was there, she saw a man wearing a thick black coat and a dark gray scarf. His skin was a bit yellow compared with the white people next to him, but it was a very healthy buckwheat color.

Yu Lili was stunned. She then looked up and suddenly saw beautiful peach eyes. It’s him.

Ou Ming briefly looked down at her and then immediately raised his eyes to watch the white world outside. “It’s so beautiful.”

Yu Lili stared at Ou Ming. She quickly averted her eyes, looked at the scenery outside, and nodded.

The elevator stopped halfway up. Both Yu Lili and Ou Ming stayed on it.

Yu Lili clearly noticed that Ou Ming seemed to put his hand close to her waist. Shocked by his behavior, she turned around and glanced at him.

Ou Ming looked at her with the corner of his lips slightly raised. “You have lied to me.”

Yu Lili didn’t understand what he meant. She was going to speak, but immediately stopped her words and gazed at Ou Ming with amazement in her eyes.

“Shen Zhilie is not your boyfriend at all, right?” he said.

Although he spoke different words, in his mind he was thinking, You’ve never slept together, and nothing has happened between you, right? If she had accepted him, Shen Zhilie wouldn’t have slept in a different room. Even if she was not willing to sleep with him, she would at least have shared her room with him.

Ou Ming stared at Yu Lili with his bright eyes. He moved slightly closer to her and put his hands against the bulletproof glass behind her, whispering, “Stop being unreasonable. Go back with me, OK?”

Yu Lili leaned against the railing behind her.

“I know that you are angry with me. I indeed have done something wrong,” Ou Ming said. “I have gone too far. I shouldn’t have said those sharp words to you. You can hit me or abuse me to vent your anger. But, please go back with me. I will take you to my parents and introduce you to all my relatives and let them know you…”

“Ou Ming,” Yu Lili interrupted him and looked at him with complicated emotions in her eyes. “Since you have married another woman, just treat her well. We’re not right for each other.”
