The 99th Divorce

Chapter 1619: Flat-Chested And Short

Ye Qianqian was dumbstruck by the question. Indeed, all his perfection was nothing but an illusion.

She gave him a look of disdain when she heard his words. Just as quickly, her eyes closed as her breathing became a steady rhythm.

Shen Zhilie didn’t dare to look down after he had voiced the question. When the lift reached the ground floor, he suddenly realized that Ye Qianqian had fallen asleep.

While he found it funny, a momentary disappointment flashed across him. His mood was confusingly complicated. As he carried her, he thought to himself how light she was in his arms.

He gauged her weight to be no more than 100 pounds. It was said that if a woman was under a hundred pounds, it meant that she was either flat-chested or short.

When it came to Ye Qianqian… His gaze swept past her chest. It was too miserable to look at…

He thought about her height. She was barely up to his chin. It was just sad. She was flat-chested and short.

It was likely that she was going to have problems breastfeeding her kid in the future. Furthermore, unless she found someone considerably taller than her, it was going to be hard to compensate for her lack of height.

Shen Zhilie began to pity Ye Qianqian’s future husband. He clicked his tongue and shook his head while muttering to himself, “What a tragedy.”

It was uncertain whether or not Ye Qianqian heard him. Her body fidgeted a little, but she soon fell back asleep.

Shen Zhilie glanced at her but wasn’t too bothered. He carried her and waited for a taxi by the side of the road.

A taxi soon stopped for them. Leaning into the car, Shen Zhilie dumped Ye Qianqian on the backseat. He climbed in behind her and had her use his lap as a pillow.

“Driver, to the hospital please,” he said.

The driver took a look and asked, “To the outpatient department?”

“Yes,” Shen Zhilie replied.

The car slowly moved off. Ye Qianqian was asleep sweetly on Shen Zhilie’s thigh.

As she tossed, her head started to move inward, and her body temperature moved upward. Ye Qianqian could feel herself burning up to a worrying degree, and she was feeling increasingly colder.

When Shen Zhilie saw how she was, he said, “Driver, please switch off the air-conditioner. She has a fever.”

The driver glanced at the back and switched the air-conditioner off. He remarked, “Aren’t you hot? I can see that you’re perspiring.”

Shen Zhilie was indeed feeling hot. He checked the time and saw that it was already afternoon, the hottest time of the day.

“I’m fine,” he replied. “Please drive faster. Thank you.”

Ye Qianqian was unaware of her surroundings. She unknowingly wrapped her arm around Shen Zhilie’s waist and burrowed her face deeper in.

Shen Zhilie squirmed a little uncomfortably. He reached his hand out to prevent her face from coming any closer to his body.

The driver smirked and asked, “Girlfriend?”

“No. A friend,” Shen Zhilie replied.

“Oh…” The driver nodded in understanding. He looked into the rearview mirror and smiled imperceptibly. “You treat your friend really well, eh?”

There was an underlying meaning to his words. Shen Zhilie stared out of the window and pretended not to get it.

The taxi suddenly jammed its breaks. Caught unprepared, Shen Zhilie and Ye Qianqian, who were sitting in the back, were thrown forward. Shen Zhilie’s first reaction was to exclaim in surprise and wrap his hand around Ye Qianqian’s head in protection.

The car was steadied quickly. The driver lowered his window to curse at another driver. “Are you blind? Are you trying to get us all killed?”

As for Ye Qianqian, she had woken up and turned her head to look at Shen Zhilie. The moment her head turned, she suddenly realized what and where her head was resting.

Stunned, she repeatedly blinked her eyes. She immediately turned her head away and quickly sat up. “Are we there yet?”

“Almost,” the driver replied. “This is the hour that students are getting off school. Hence, the roads are a little busy. Once we’re past this junction, it’ll be fine.”

“Oh. Oh…” Ye Qianqian sat still. Her expression looked uncomfortable.
