The 99th Divorce

Chapter 1634: Turning the Tables

Ye Youyou laughed self-deprecatingly. She looked at Ye Tian with derision in her eyes.

When Ye Tian heard Ye Youyou’s words, she reacted as if she was truly hurt and replied, “How was that even possible? Back then, you were the one who had made up your mind to leave! I couldn’t even stop you no matter how hard I tried!”

Ye Youyou’s lips lifted in a mocking smile. “Is that so? My sincere apologies then for making all your efforts be in vain.”

Ye Tian looked a little relieved and stepped forward to reach for Ye Youyou’s hands. She said, “Please don’t be angry at Mommy anymore. Come home with Mommy. I’ve already lost one daughter. I don’t want to lose you too. Youyou, you’re Mommy’s darling daughter. Come home with me, will you?”

When Ye Youyou heard her pleas, she felt a layer of her thoroughly frozen heart begin to thaw a little.

At the same time, her heart was plunged into a burning hot furnace.

The pain was excruciating as the flames lapped up at it.

“Is the daughter that you lost referring to Guan Queye?”

Ye Youyou softly asked. Her tone carried a hint of contempt.

Ye Tian couldn’t identify what Ye Youyou was trying to get at. It took her more than a moment before she replied, “Youyou, Mommy knows that you hate me. But blood is still thicker than water at the end of the day. Right now, your father is divorcing me, and he’s doing it by litigation. You are the cause of all of these. If not for you, Guan Queye would never have done something so senseless…”

Ye Tian’s words aroused suspicious in Li Jinnan’s eyes.

It didn’t register with Ye Youyou. She had only focus on the front part of the message. With a humorless laugh, she asked, “Are you talking about Guan Yanhong?”

Ye Tian froze for a second before replying, “Yes…”

“I only have one father, and his name is Ye Zhenghua,” Ye Youyou said. “Guan Yanhong is nothing more than your husband and my stepfather.”

Ye Youyou looked at Ye Tian with a tinge of pity in her eyes. “Is my stepfather now divorcing you because he has finally seen through you and realized the kind of person you truly are? Congratulations are in order!”

Ye Youyou’s tone of mockery was identical to Ye Qianqian’s a few days ago.

Ye Tian’s eyes widened. She looked at Ye Youyou in disbelief.

When Ye Youyou saw her expression, the corners of her lips lifted in a smile. She asked, “Divorce by litigation… Doesn’t that mean you’ll leave the marriage without a single cent?”

“That’s right,” Li Jinnan rejoined. With an expression of pity toward Ye Tian, he said, “Come to think of it, your mom is quite pitiful.”

Ye Youyou wasn’t expecting Li Jinnan to suddenly speak. She was stunned and turned to look at him.

“She’s gotten old and way past her prime. Now she’s being divorced. In the future, she won’t even have her daughter to send her off. How sad it is!” Li Jinnan clucked his tongue and shook his head. His eyes were brimming with sympathy.

Ye Youyou felt a little unsettled when she heard his words.

Indeed, Ye Tian wasn’t young anymore. She had married the wrong person and destroyed her whole life…

When Ye Tian heard what Li Jinnan said, she flew into a rage. “You bastard…”

Before she could continue, Li Jinnan interrupted her.

Li Jinnan’s eyes were shining brightly like stars as he gazed at her and slowly enunciated each word he said. “I pity you. Because of Guan Queye, your whole life was destroyed.”

“If not for Guan Queye, your daughter wouldn’t be refusing to acknowledge you. From the time you divorced your ex-husband, Ye Qianqian no longer had anything to do with you. She was destined to no longer share a relationship with you. Ye Youyou was the only daughter you had blood ties with who could send you off in the future. Now, even she won’t acknowledge you. This is all Guan Queye’s doing, isn’t it?”

Li Jinnan’s voice carried an inexplicable magnetic quality as he guided Ye Tian toward his deduction and turned her thoughts in a different direction.
