The 99th Divorce

Chapter 1723: Daily Routine

When they got back to the hotel, Ye Qianqian took a shower before climbing into bed.

Shen Zhilie was already fast asleep. He looked exhausted.

Ye Qianqian quietly hid the condoms they had just bought. If Shen Zhilie proposed doing anything, she’d just tell him that she’d forgotten where she put them and wasn’t about to get into action without protection.

After settling everything, Ye Qianqian covered Shen Zhilie with the blanket and laid down beside him with a huge yawn.

Shen Zhilie hadn’t managed to get much sleep the night before, and neither had she.

What he said to her had been replaying countless times over in her mind.

Marriage, meeting the parents...

Considering that it had only been half a month since they had officially begun seeing each other, those weren’t steps they were ready for.

Ye Qianqian felt that the relationship was developing too quickly. The sense of security she had just begun to feel had quickly evaporated.

Ye Qianqian knew she wasn’t acting like her usual self, but this was her first time in a relationship. Everything was new and foreign to her.

She thought about the fact that she had given her virginity to him while he was clearly an experienced lover. She began to feel unsettled.

After making love, he had declared his intention to marry her. Ye Qianqian could not help but wonder if he had said the same thing to his previous girlfriends.

Because of that small little thought, Ye Qianqian had been unable to fall asleep for most of the night.

Only after she knew that Shen Zhilie had fallen asleep had she been able to drift off to dreamland.

She was utterly exhausted. She pulled the covers over herself and closed her eyes.

Ye Qianqian slept until evening. When she awoke, Shen Zhilie’s limbs were draped across her body.

She flung them off disdainfully and stretched her back. Before she could complete her yawn, Shen Zhilie embraced her.

Not only did he embrace her, but he also leaned his head over and snuggled it against her chest.

Ye Qianqian wasn’t wearing any undergarments. His actions made her body tremble.

With both hands, she pushed his head away. Ye Qianqian turned her body over and exclaimed, “Move away! You’re not a little kid!”

Shen Zhilie sensed her sensitive overreaction and mischievously looked up at her.

Ye Qianqian gritted her teeth and pushed his face away. She rolled over, slipped out of bed, and crawled out of the room.

Shen Zhilie burst out in huge guffaws. His body betrayed his most honest reaction.

However, judging from her behavior, she was probably experiencing the psychological aftereffects of their bedroom activities.

Her steps while walking hadn’t been too nimble...

“Don’t pressure her too much. Even rabbits bite when under duress. This lady is too. No matter how eager you are, you’ll just have to hold it in. Don’t give her PTSD, or you’ll have to end up paying the price.”

Luo Ran’s words replayed over and over again in his mind. Shen Zhilie got out of bed and opened the window.

The gentle river breeze was cool and comforting.

It was past 6 p.m.

The sky wasn’t fully dark yet, and the lights along the streets weren’t fully bright. Together, they presented a unique picture.

Beauty could be captured at every moment.

Ye Qianqian’s beauty was like the beauty of this night—endless.

He felt the same way.

One day, he was going to make her his and only his.

–

Having spent five days in Venice, Ye Qianqian had finally satisfied her yearning for the place.

Since their vacation was free and easy, they could come to an agreement that it was time to return to China.

However, the time difference between China and Venice was drastic. They had a hard time adapting to it.

When they reached Kingstown, it was 10 p.m.

It was just in time for most people’s bedtime.

That was not the case for them. They had just woken up from their sleep not too long ago.

At the thought of the time difference, Ye Qianqian began to worry.

She had told her boss that she’d be back to work the next day. With her body unable to adapt to the time difference, how was that going to happen?
