The 99th Divorce - Chapter 1648
Chapter 1648: Who would be Willing to Marry Him Then?
Old Mrs. Shen had evidently not expected Shen Manting to say something like that.

After a moment of stunned silence, she regained her wits and replied, “This child is definitely of the Shen family! There is no mistake! Manting, you can lie to me, but you can’t lie to the heavens!”
The hair at the nape of Shen Manting’s neck stood on its ends. After such a long period of interacting with Old Mrs. Shen, she had gradually begun to believe in her paranormal abilities.
It was just like how Old Mrs. Shen had refused to accept Ye Youyou as her granddaughter-in-law no matter what.
From the moment Ye Youyou had married into the Shen family, Old Mrs. Shen had rejected her.
In all matters, regardless of whether they were major or trivial, as long as Ye Youyou could be blamed for it, Old Mrs. Shen would be the first to rush up and seize the opportunity to do so.
She had been insistent that Ye Youyou wasn’t destined to be the daughter-in-law of the Shen family.
She was destined at birth to be married twice.
In the end, her words had come to pass.
Ye Youyou was now with Li Jinnan. Considering that they had made their public appearance together as a couple, it was likely that their nuptials were coming soon.
After she heard Old Mrs. Shen’s words, Shen Manting didn’t have the courage to deny it.
“Manting, what do I have to do for you to come back with me? Please tell me. Granny will grant your wish regardless of whatever it is, as long as you’re willing to return. Please, Granny is begging you…”
The words were grave, but Shen Manting knew this old lady well.
Her words were merely a means to an end. No one really knew what she was thinking.
“Granny, please give up,” Shen Manting said. “I am grateful that I mean so much to you. Thank you for actually coming to such a place to look for me, but I won’t ever go back regardless.”
“Manting!”
“I never belonged there to begin with. Please go back!”
As Old Mrs. Shen finally realized that Shen Manting was truly firm in her decision not to return. She was very saddened.
She stood beside her and refused to leave.
She gazed at Shen Manting with her elderly eyes for a long time before saying with a sigh, “Shen Luo’an owes you.”
–
The verdict was finally out.
Because of the emergence of the voice recording, no matter what stops Guan Yanhong tried his darndest to pull, he was unable to alter the outcome.
Shen Luo’an was declared not guilty in court, much to the joy of everyone present.
Mrs. Shen burst out into tears on the spot. She hugged her husband emotionally as she cried out, “He’s finally been released! He’s finally been released!”
Similarly, Shen Zhilie rejoiced but in silence. His eyes turned to the elated Shen Luo’an on the stand.
He turned his eyes to Ye Youyou and Li Jinnan, who were seated in the row in front of him. With sincerity evident in his voice, he uttered, “Thank you to the both of you.”
At the sound of Shen Zhilie’s voice, Ye Youyou turned her head around.
In her most helpless hours, the owner of that familiar face had helped Shen Luo’an repay many of his debts to her.
As she smiled at Shen Zhilie amiably, Ye Youyou looked beautiful. “Don’t mention it,” she replied.
At the same time, Mrs. Shen turned her head over. Looking at Ye Youyou, she said, “Youyou! Youyou, thank you so much for your help! I’m truly, truly grateful! If not for you, Shen Luo’an would have remained imprisoned for 20 years! He’s already past 30 years old and without a child. If he were to be released 20 years later, who would be willing to marry him then?”
The more Mrs. Shen thought about it, the more she shuddered and her gratitude toward Ye Youyou grew.
Ye Youyou suddenly found the whole situation a little funny. She couldn’t help thinking about Ye Tian.
Shen Luo’an wasn’t borne by Mrs. Shen. However, the way Mrs. Shen treated Shen Luo’an was as if he were her biological son.
Her only difference from Ye Tian was that she treated her biological child the same way. That was worlds apart from Ye Tian.
