Chapter 850: Wanting a Divorce

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation  Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

On New Year’s Eve, despite the commotion caused by Huangfu Jingzhang and others, it didn’t ultimately dampen the spirits of Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Leng’an. 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 prone to disturbances.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Leng’an 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 Leng’an 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 Leng’an’s interest, and Huangfu Ruiling was happy to accompany her.

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

Observing this striking couple, passersby couldn’t help but take a second glance, especially young couples. After witnessing Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Leng’an’s 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 Leng’an continued to lead Huangfu Ruiling around.

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

Observing his action, Ye Leng’an asked curiously, “Who was that?”

Huangfu Ruiling didn’t withhold anything. “It was Huangfu Jingzhang. I wonder what he’s up to now.”

He had forsaken the title of “father.”

“Let’s not let him ruin our mood,” Ye Leng’an said, taking Huangfu Ruiling’s hand. “Let’s 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 hadn’t expected Huangfu Ruiling to cut him off like that. And worse, he hadn’t even answered his call.

Zhongyu Liuying wasn’t surprised. “Jingzhang, call Li San. He can reach Huangfu Ruiling.”

“That bastard!” 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 doesn’t come back, it’ll 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 San’s 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 couple’s date, he insisted on purchasing the tickets himself.

Meanwhile, Ye Leng’an sat nearby at a small round table, sipping on a coke. 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 Leng’an. “Should we get some popcorn too?” He saw everyone else have some.

Ye Leng’an agreed. “Yes, let’s go get some now.”

Little did they expect Huangfu Ruiling’s 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 wasn’t good news.

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

After hanging up, Huangfu Ruiling saw Ye Leng’an’s inquiring gaze. “Li San called.”

“Li San?” Ye Leng’an paused, then quickly deduced, “It must be related to Huangfu Jingzhang’s call earlier.”

Previously, when Zhongyu Liuying couldn’t 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 Leng’an exclaimed. “If I remember correctly, they haven’t even been married for a year! Why divorce so soon? Could it be Zhong Yating still can’t accept Li Yiran’s situation?”

The last sentence was meant as a joke.

After all, if Zhong Yating couldn’t accept Li Yiran’s situation, she should have intervened when Li Yiran caused a scene at the wedding, rather than waiting until now.

They just couldn’t fathom what could have led to this divorce on a day like today.
