Chapter 16, Let's Get Divorced!

"Show what cards?" Ye Huang asked.

"You tell me, why did you want me to become your wife?"

The emotion in Ye Huang's eyes receded, leaving his obsidian-like pupils inscrutable.

He looked at her and after a long while slowly said, "Grandma was sick, she needed a boost of happiness."

"A boost of happiness?!" Bai Xiao jumped up, "What era are we living in? Is boosting happiness still a thing? Ye Huang, you're a university researcher, do you believe in such old superstitions? Don't lie to me, you must have other motives!"

The light in Ye Huang's eyes flickered, then quickly returned to calm: "It was grandma's wish. Besides, we got married yesterday and today grandma is full of vigor."

"Your grandma went back to the hospital, didn't you know?"

"I know."

"That shows boosting happiness is useless! You have to believe in science!"

"But, the happiness boost has been done. Grandma is hospitalized again."
