The few shreds of hope that had persisted in Bai Yuejie’s heart were obliterated in that instant.
Her hand, clutching the phone, trembled slightly, and her face darkened, but her voice remained gentle, "You’re going to bed so early?"
"Yes, early to bed, early to rise makes a person healthy, and good health is needed to have a baby~"
The innocent and childlike tone at the end of the sentence felt like a thorn in Bai Yuejie’s ear.
Bai Yuejie ’hehe’d with a laugh, "Are you still living with Brother Ling Yan? How co I heard that you two have already divorced?"
Shi i’s brows and eyes tightened slightly.
It looked like Shi Lingyan had already shared the news with her beforehand.
Shi i’s voice was still sweet and cute, "No, we are doing just fine."
But Bai Yuejie chuckled lightly on the other end, "Don’t lie to , Shi i. You have already signed the divorce papers, I know all about it."
Shi i huffed, "I’m not lying, it’s Sister Bai who is the liar, Sister Bai the anie!"
Hearing Shi i’s tone made Bai Yuejie feel imnsely satisfied, and she continued, "Why would I lie to you? I’m telling the truth. Brother Ling Yan had already been planning to divorce you for a while now. Didn’t you notice anything unusual?"
Shi i: "..."
Actually, things had always been unusual.
Seeing that she wasn’t speaking, Bai Yuejie continued, "Whether a man is feeling it for a woman is completely obvious, Shi i. Even if you two are living together now, haven’t you noticed that his attitude has gotten colder than before?"
Shi i: "..."
Actually, he had always been very cold.
Bai Yuejie’s voice was soft, seemingly mixed with a bit of pity, "You’ve signed the papers, right?"
Shi i: "I..."
Bai Yuejie didn’t wait for her response, "Once divorced, a man and a woman are no longer husband and wife, Shi i."
Shi i really wanted to scoff at her, roll her eyes to the sky, and then said, "That’s not true. We still live together, in the sa room too. Sister Bai, why are you saying such strange things? Don’t you want Shi i to be happy?"
Bai Yuejie’s voice turned cold, "Of course, I want you to be happy. I just don’t want you to be too despicable, living in a man’s house without being married, using the na of a wife without the legitimacy of one. If word gets out about your situation, you’ll be despised by everyone."
"It won’t happen," Shi i said with a cold laugh, her voice still sweet and cute, "There’s nothing illegitimate about it. The people who want others to divorce, who want others to be unhappy, are the shaful ones."
Bai Yuejie’s throat tightened, stunned for a mont by Shi i’s barbed words.
What ca next was even more unexpected to her.
Shi i continued, "Even if I am divorced from him, we were once husband and wife. But you are different. You like him but can’t have him. That’s why you want Shi i to be unhappy. You are a bad woman, that’s why you were doused with blood in the street. They say it’s retribution, because you hurt Tang Wu too. You are despicable, so I can’t listen to you."
Her voice, though childish and innocent, spoke words that were like scissors ruthlessly tearing apart the facade Bai Yuejie had painstakingly crafted in front of Shi i.
Bai Yuejie’s face grew paler, "Who taught you this!"
"They all say that," Shi i’s voice was light, carrying her usual innocence, "Sister Bai, rember this phrase, ’What goes around cos around, and heaven’s justice is ever-turning.’"
