The 99th Divorce - Chapter 1691
Chapter 1691: Reaching Venice
Because of Shen Zhilie’s small little action, Ye Qianqian had a very hard time falling asleep that night.

When Ye Zhenhua called her up in the morning, she was still feeling groggy.
“Qianqian, your boyfriend’s still here! Wake up for breakfast!”
Ye Qianqian covered her head and yelled back in reply, “I don’t want any breakfast! I want to sleep!”
Outside, Ye Zhenhua couldn’t help but chuckle when he heard Ye Qianqian’s reply. “What a child. She’s all grown un and still being lazy in bed.”
“It’s fine. Let her sleep in. We’ll probably have to go back to Kingstown later. If she sleeps more now, it’ll be less likely for her to get carsick.”
“You mustn’t spoil her too much. I know my daughter well. She can be quite the bully. If you treat her too well, she’ll start to get cocky. You have to be hard on her every once in a while in order for her to behave and get rid of that horrible temper.”
Shen Zhilie laughed in reply. “I see. I’ll try that next time.”
When Ye Zhenhua heard that, he suddenly felt uneasy.
Why was he teaching this outsider how to bully his daughter?
That wouldn’t do at all.
After some thought, he said, “But you mustn’t cross the line either. That girl bears grudges.”
“I won’t give her the chance to.”
When Ye Zhenhua heard Shen Zhilie’s reply, his approval of the guy increased even more.
He smiled and bent his head down to continue eating.
Ye Qianqian slept in until mid-day. It was past noon when she finally woke up. When she lazily eyed the clock and saw the time, she jackknifed up.
She went out and saw everyone preparing lunch.
Ye Qianqian knew she was in trouble. She snuck into the bathroom for a shower and quickly crept outside.
Only after she’d properly woken up did she quietly make her way back and pretend she’d been out all along.
“Dad, I’m back!”
Ye Zhenhua had no idea when she left. He looked at her and said, “I thought you were still sleeping. Where did you go off to?”
“Hey, since when was I that sort of a person? I went out for some fun. Have you eaten yet?”
Shen Zhilie rolled his eyes at her and said, “I saw you. You snuck out and came back within five minutes.”
Ye Qianqian choked on her word. “You are mistaken!”
Shen Zhilie’s smile widened. He brought the food out and replied, “Yeah, I’m mistaken. Go wash your hands.”
Ye Qianqian glared at him fiercely before dragging her feet off to wash her hands.
After lunch, Shen Zhilie said it was time to head back to Kingstown.
After Ye Qianqian said her goodbyes to Fang Tongtong, Shen Zhilie drove off in the showy lemon-colored Maserati. Their exit was very conspicuous.
Along the way, many eyes turned toward them. When Xia Yilin saw them from afar, she clenched her jaw in envy.
Ye Qianqian had slept for a long time, so she was now wide-awake. She spent the entire ride back chatting with Shen Zhilie about everything and nothing.
By the time they reached Kingstown, it was already close to evening.
They both packed their luggage and prepared the necessities for their vacation. Ye Qianqian could barely contain her excitement.
She tossed and turned for almost half a night before she finally fell asleep.
The next day, they headed to the airport early in the morning. The flight to Venice was scheduled to take 11 hours.
The temperature and climate in Venice were similar to that in Kingstown. When they reached their destination, Ye Qianqian’s whole being came alive.
Dragging her luggage in one hand, she ran out as she called, “Come on! Hurry up!”
Shen Zhilie had no choice but to chase her. As he jogged, he said, “Slow down! What’s the rush?”
Ye Qianqian had always been attracted to this city, which was embraced by water. It was romantic, gentle, mysterious, and mystical all at once.
Rumor had it that God had shed his tears there, making this city crystal-like and tender like a romantic dream adrift on blue waves.
