Chapter 850: Wanting a Divorce

Translator:Dragon Boat TranslationEditor:Dragon Boat Translation

On New Years Eve, despite the commotion caused by Huangfu Jingzhang and others, it didnt ultimately dampen the spirits of Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Lengan. The two continued to celebrate the New Year happily.

In the following two to three days, they enjoyed uninterrupted tranquility. They lived like any newlywed couple would, with warmth and sweetness.

However, peaceful days were often p.r.o.ne to disturbances.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Lengan were out shopping in the mall.

Although traditionally it was the day when married daughters returned to their parents homes, the mall was bustling, even more so than usual.

Today, Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Lengan decided to come out for a date, feeling a bit restless staying indoors in the villa.

Their plans were simple, just like any other couple shopping, dining, and catching a movie. Coincidentally, there was a new Lunar New Year film screening, which piqued Ye Lengans interest, and Huangfu Ruiling was happy to accompany her.

After breakfast, they set out, aimlessly strolling through the mall. Ye Lengan was casual, popping into shops that caught her eye. Huangfu Ruiling followed along, his demeanor gentle and accommodating.

Observing this striking couple, pa.s.sersby couldnt help but take a second glance, especially young couples. After witnessing Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Lengans affectionate interaction, some young girls found themselves comparing their boyfriends unfavorably. Handsome, wealthy, and attentive they seemed to have it all. It made some wonder why they settled for less.

Unaware of the envy they sparked, Ye Lengan continued to lead Huangfu Ruiling around.

However, as they emerged from a store, Huangfu Ruilings phone rang. Glancing at the caller ID, he promptly hung up.

Observing his action, Ye Lengan asked curiously, Who was that?

Huangfu Ruiling didnt withhold anything. It was Huangfu Jingzhang. I wonder what hes up to now.

He had forsaken the t.i.tle of father.

Lets not let him ruin our mood, Ye Lengan said, taking Huangfu Ruilings hand. Lets continue our shopping!

Meanwhile, Huangfu Jingzhang stared at his phone, still lost in thought. His anger burned as he fixed his gaze on the screen, seemingly capable of boring a hole into it.

Clearly, he hadnt expected Huangfu Ruiling to cut him off like that. And worse, he hadnt even answered his call.

Zhongyu Liuying wasnt surprised. Jingzhang, call Li San. He can reach Huangfu Ruiling.

That b.a.s.t.a.r.d! Huangfu Jingzhang clenched his phone tightly, barely containing his rage. Otherwise, he might have thrown it.

Alright, make the call quickly, Zhongyu Liuying urged. Huangfu Ruiling needs to be present to resolve this matter. If he doesnt come back, itll only prolong the issue.

Huangfu Jingzhang understood the reasoning, but his anger lingered. Taking a deep breath, he struggled to suppress it. Reluctantly, he dialed Li Sans number again.

Thankfully, they were in the study, away from prying eyes. Otherwise, their inability to reach their own son directly would have been a disgrace.

Inside the mall, Huangfu Ruiling queued up to buy movie tickets. Wanting to experience a normal couples date, he insisted on purchasing the tickets himself.

Meanwhile, Ye Lengan sat nearby at a small round table, sipping on a c.o.ke. Her gaze never left Huangfu Ruiling as he stood in line.

Soon, Huangfu Ruiling returned with two tickets in hand.

Scanning the couples waiting to watch the movie, he turned to Ye Lengan. Should we get some popcorn too? He saw everyone else have some.

Ye Lengan agreed. Yes, lets go get some now.

Little did they expect Huangfu Ruilings phone to ring again as they spoke.

Unlike before, he answered this time.

But as he listened to the caller, his brows furrowed. Clearly, it wasnt good news.

Considering the earlier call from Huangfu Jingzhang, Ye Lengan suspected a connection between the two calls.

After hanging up, Huangfu Ruiling saw Ye Lengans inquiring gaze. Li San called.

Li San? Ye Lengan paused, then quickly deduced, It must be related to Huangfu Jingzhangs call earlier.

Previously, when Zhongyu Liuying couldnt reach Huangfu Ruiling, they had relayed messages through Li San. It seemed the same approach was being used now by Huangfu Jingzhang.

Huangfu Ruiling nodded. Huangfu Jingzhang said that Huangfu Ruixiang wants a divorce. He asked me to come back.

What? Ye Lengan exclaimed. If I remember correctly, they havent even been married for a year! Why divorce so soon? Could it be Zhong Yating still cant accept Li Yirans situation?

The last sentence was meant as a joke.

After all, if Zhong Yating couldnt accept Li Yirans situation, she should have intervened when Li Yiran caused a scene at the wedding, rather than waiting until now.

They just couldnt fathom what could have led to this divorce on a day like today.
