Mr.President, Let's Get a Divorce
Chapter 83: If you’re tired, I’ll come pick you up.

Chapter 83: If you’re tired, I’ll come pick you up.

Wen Nian stepped out of the guest bedroom and looked at the master bedroom across the hall. He reached for the doorknob and turned it, only to find... the master bedroom door was locked from the inside.

He paused for a moment, then chuckled softly to himself,

"..."

"Even small towns have many unseen dangers. You should lock your doors at night just like now. You have to eat well, rich in nutrients, or I’ll bring a nutritionist over next time if you’re still this thin."

"Xiao Li, if one day you’re tired and don’t want to struggle anymore, I will come to pick you up, okay?"

In the pitch-dark master bedroom, Song Lili lay with her eyes wide open, listening to the gentle words of the man outside, each word striking her heart.

The sound of the door closing signified his departure.

Song Lili curled up, tightly closed her eyes, but hot tears still streamed down from the corners.

She knew better than anyone how much Wen Nian loved her at this moment. Should she punish today’s Wen Xiaonian, who cherished her dearly, because of the Wen Nian who would cruelly sentence her to death ten years later...?

However, if she accepted his kindness now, would that be repeating the past mistakes and endure his ruthlessness once more in the future?

Wen Nian, Wen Nian, Wen Nian...

Why in the end, must you cold-heartedly sign to sentence me to death? Letting me die in utter despair!

The pitch-black night always seemed to soften one’s emotions, stirring up tumultuous feelings...

After Wen Nian left, Ziqing didn’t sleep much either and left before dawn.

After the President left Xilin, the military training seemingly returned to its initial routine.

During the two-day holiday, Song Lili was out of touch with the outside world and only after returning to the military academy did she find out that Wen Nian’s inspection of Xilin was not a simple matter.

Most people were deeply worried, but only Song Lili breathed a sigh of relief because Lin Xinglan no longer had the mind to trouble her.

However, what surprised Song Lili was that Lin Xinglan still attended the military training as usual, no longer talking arrogantly or acting unilaterally.

She was like a frightened little hedgehog, bristling her spines, curling up, and always keeping a watchful eye on the people around her...

Her father was ousted overnight, and this princess, once adored by many, was harshly thrown to the ground.

Song Lili could understand this feeling... children from official families should always be prepared for this. The political arena is a cruel and decisive battleground...

"On the surface, they talk about the development of Xilin and the happiness of the Xilin people, but it’s all lies!"

"Yeah, Lin Xinglan is so arrogant every day, she has no upbringing!"

"They deserve their family’s downfall."

"Corrupt officials should be shot, letting these second-generation officials be so arrogant..."

"Say that one more time."

A group of girls gathered, chatting, and Lin Xinglan, unable to hold back, rushed out!

Song Lili leaned against a tree resting, the continuous two hours of training had tired her out, the brief rest should have been the best time to recover.

She looked towards the group of girls now embroiled in a dispute.

"Who did you say deserves to be shot! My father is just under investigation! He hasn’t committed corruption or harmed the people! How dare you spout nonsense here!"
