Chapter 716: Disgusting Love (2)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Liuli Nuonuo stood in the courtyard and looked up at the persimmon tree filled with golden orange fruits in the middle of the courtyard. She felt sad.
It was said that Patriarch Xuanyuan was a devoted person. After his lover pa.s.sed away, he froze his lover’s body forever to accompany him through his lifespan before being buried with his lover. This persimmon tree was also the marriage tree of the Xuanyuan Clan. Every time there was a worship festival, the young men and women of the clan would come here to pray for blessings on the persimmon tree and hope to meet a good person.
Liuli Nuonuo never believed in these things.
However, after staring at the tree for a while, she couldn’t help but close her eyes and press her palms against it. She prayed silently, “I hope that I can divorce Xuanyuan Shen as soon as possible and get what I want.”
Seeing Liuli Nuonuo praying to the persimmon tree, the butler instantly felt mixed emotions.
Madam had been married to the Patriarch for more than a hundred years. Madam didn’t have any love for the Patriarch. Clearly, her prayers had nothing to do with the Patriarch.
When he thought about the gossip about Madam, how could the butler not have mixed feelings?
It seemed that Madam had really found her true love.
“Let’s go.”
Liuli Nuonuo pa.s.sed through the moon cave door on the right of the courtyard. When she entered, she saw another beautiful garden. This courtyard had all sorts of beautiful scenery. Although Liuli Nuonuo had been married to him for more than a hundred years, she wasn’t familiar with this courtyard. The number of times she had stepped into this courtyard could be counted on one hand.
Liuli Nuonuo clearly sensed that the closer she got to Xuanyuan Shen’s dormitory, the richer the spiritual energy in the world became.
She looked at the courtyard in surprise and realized that the ground of the courtyard wasn’t covered in pebbles and cement, but black and shining Black Spirit Stones. The Black Spirit Stones could gather spirit energy and help cultivators increase their cultivation efficiency. However, when Liuli Nuonuo came last time, the courtyard was only covered in ordinary stones.
From the looks of it, Xuanyuan Shen couldn’t wait to break through.
Perhaps Sheng Lingfeng’s breakthrough to the Prime Master Realm had dealt him a blow.
“We’re here, Madam.” The butler stood at the entrance of the dormitory and turned to Liuli Nuonuo. “I’ll send you up to here.”
“Yes.”
Xuanyuan Shen’s courtyard was extremely quiet. He didn’t like being disturbed, let alone allow anyone to enter his room without permission, even the butler.
It could be seen how vigilant this person was.
Liuli Nuonuo walked into the dormitory and stood in the small courtyard. Her gaze traveled up the stairs and she stared at the closed door with a tired expression. She was wearing high heels and made a lot of noise when she walked. Before Liuli Nuonuo approached the door, Xuanyuan Shen heard the noise and opened the door in advance.
Seeing Liuli Nuonuo, who was dressed elegantly outside the door, Xuanyuan Shen subconsciously frowned and asked, “You went out today?” She was dressed in such a glamorous manner. Could it be that she went to see that man?
Liuli Nuonuo could naturally hear the displeasure in Xuanyuan Shen’s tone. She pulled the collar of her fur coat and extended her right hand towards Xuanyuan Shen elegantly. She opened her red lips and said, “Where’s the divorce agreement?”
Xuanyuan Shen’s expression instantly darkened. “You really want to divorce me?”
“I thought we had reached a consensus on the divorce more than a month ago.” Liuli Nuonuo raised her eyebrows and asked Xuanyuan Shen, “You don’t want to sign it?”
Xuanyuan Shen naturally didn’t want to sign it.
“They all say that you have a new lover outside.” Xuanyuan Shen sneered and said, “Nuonuo, are you taking revenge on me?”
Liuli Nuonuo sneered. “Who do you think you are? You’re not worth my revenge at all.” Liuli Nuonuo retracted her hand and hugged her chest. She said disdainfully, “You’re a rapist. I feel disgusted just by looking at you. You’re not worth me taking revenge.”
After being mercilessly insulted by Liuli Nuonuo, Xuanyuan Shen looked even more sinister. “So, you really have a man you want to be with?”
Liuli Nuonuo didn’t deny it, but she didn’t admit it directly either.
However, her silence was enough for Xuanyuan Shen to understand what she meant.
Xuanyuan Shen frowned and glanced at her waist. He suddenly said, “You guys slept together?”
Liuli Nuonuo’s beautiful face instantly turned ashen, and she immediately scolded, “Xuanyuan Shen, don’t think that everyone is as despicable and shameless as you!”
“Heh…”
Xuanyuan Shen took a step back and said to Liuli Nuonuo, “Regarding the divorce agreement, I still have a few things I’m not satisfied with. Come in and let’s talk in detail.”
Liuli Nuonuo flipped the wavy hair on her forehead flirtatiously and said, “If you want to talk, let’s talk directly in the courtyard.” Liuli Nuonuo knew how despicable Xuanyuan Shen was very well. She would never enter Xuanyuan Shen’s room alone.
When Xuanyuan Shen loved her back then, he was even willing to drug and rape her. Now, their relationship was tense. Who knew if Xuanyuan Shen would do something even more outrageous?
Liuli Nuonuo would never enter Xuanyuan Shen’s room.
Seeing that Liuli Nuonuo was unwilling to even take a step into his room, Xuanyuan Shen felt that his ego was bruised. He was completely enraged. “Good! Very good! Then let’s talk outside!”
Xuanyuan Shen returned to the room to get the divorce agreement. He and Liuli Nuonuo walked to a pavilion on the arched bridge in the courtyard to discuss the details. As long as they didn’t stay in the room to chat, Liuli Nuonuo was calm and at ease when facing Xuanyuan Shen. She opened the divorce agreement and asked Xuanyuan Shen, “What part needs to be changed?”
Xuanyuan Shen said, “The eighth.”
The expression on Liuli Nuo’s beautiful face instantly turned cold. She said, “Don’t expect me to change this. Xuanyuan Shen, although my father has already died, I was still the former young master of the Liuli Clan. Back then, you used despicable methods to marry me, which was a slap to the face of the Liuli Clan. Later, you brought Luo Shihan and Jing Sa back to the Xuanyuan Clan, which made me and my father lose face.”
“If you dare to make Luo Shihan or Jing Sa your wife, the Liuli Clan will never let this go! I will never change this rule!”
Xuanyuan Shen nodded. Just as Liuli Nuonuo thought that Xuanyuan Shen had compromised and was about to heave a sigh of relief, she heard Xuanyuan Shen say, “Then let’s each take a step back. I won’t make Luo Shihan and Jing Sa my wife, and you can’t marry Professor Qin.”
Liuli Nuonuo immediately frowned when she heard this. She said, “This is unfair. There are countless women around you. Even without Luo Shihan and Jing Sa, you can still find a suitable wife. But I’m different from you…” Before Liuli Nuonuo could finish speaking, she saw Xuanyuan Shen smile.
“Yes, you’re different from me. Be it Luo Shihan, Jing Sa, or those female celebrities on the news, they are indeed close to me. But you also know in your heart that I only have desire for them and no feelings for them.” Xuanyuan Shen looked at Liuli Nuonuo affectionately and helplessly. He sighed and said, ” Nuonuo, you know very well that I only love you.”
Liuli Nuonuo was so disgusted by his ‘love’ that she wanted to vomit.
“But you fell in love with Professor Qin.” Xuanyuan Shen frowned and said, “I can accept you divorcing me because you’re tired of marriage, but I definitely can’t accept that you divorced me because you fell in love with someone else. Nuonuo, it’s precisely because you love him that I won’t allow the two of you to get married.”
How was that professor surnamed Qin better than him?
He was a commoner!
Despite being a commoner, Professor Qin was considered a bachelor at his age.
It was fine if he lost to Yin Mingjue, but he actually lost to someone that had yet to even awaken his beast form!
