My Aloof Lord Ex-Husband Begs for Remarriage

"What sort of person do you think Nanny Hua is in your eyes? Going home to pray for her child is an act of gratitude, isn't it? Or is what Nanny Hua did improper? Or is it that the Concubine, having enjoyed my child with the Prince, has even less gratitude than Nanny Hua?" Chu Nanli looked at her and asked coldly.

Lin Fuying was rattled by her piercing dark eyes, feeling a moment of panic, and she looked at Ye Yunting for help. "Prince, Yingying didn't mean that, Nanny has left, and Yingying feels so distressed, somewhat unwell..."

While speaking, she clutched her chest and coughed weakly twice.

Ye Yunting's expression changed. "Yingying, where do you feel unwell?"

Seeing Lin Fuying cough lightly, Ye Yunting glared fiercely at Chu Nanli. "You better stop right there!"

With that, he intended to lead Lin Fuying away.

Lin Fuying leaned on Ye Yunting's chest and sneaked a peek at Chu Nanli with a dark look in her eyes.

She would definitely investigate this matter secretly! Chu Nanli, that vile woman, broke her arm; she must make her pay!

"Hold on," Chu Nanli called out.

Ye Yunting paused in his steps.

Chu Nanli met his dark gaze fearlessly. "So you're just going to let this false accusation pass? The Prince decides a woman's guilt just by a few words from the Concubine, and then beats a woman who mis-carried and is recuperating from childbirth?"

Ye Yunting's face turned frosty. "You deserved it, brought it upon yourself! A woman who desperately wanted to marry me and is shamelessly unscrupulous, you should be thankful that I spared your life!"

The man's voice was ice-cold, his black robe seemed to overshadow the light in the sky, casting only shadows.

Chu Nanli's heart ached, and she felt her breathing tighten with rising anger.

This scoundrel!

Initially, it was he who demanded the original owner to commit herself to him. Poor original soul, such a foolish girl with genuine affection, misguided even though her spirit had left, yet her body still felt upset by Ye Yunting's harsh words.

Seeing Ye Yunting about to leave, Chu Nanli gritted her teeth and swiftly stepped forward to block him.

"A revered War God of Xia Kingdom, held in high esteem by the common people, how fitting is it for you to wrongly accuse a young woman and refuse to explain, my prince?"

Ye Yunting's eyes slightly narrowed, his expression inscrutable.

Lin Fuying didn't dare to speak.

After a moment, Ye Yunting said, "What do you want?"

Chu Nanli felt a slight relief in her heart, knowing well this scoundrel cared about his reputation. "First, according to Nanny Hua's resignation letter, hand over her possessions to me, including Silver Coin and servants. Second, I request the Prince not to lay hands on me without discernment in the future, otherwise, if it's like today again, my body can't take it."

Ye Yunting snorted lightly, disdain and coldness clear in his eyes. "I also feel it dirty my hands."

Chu Nanli felt her fists harden, but reason kept her calm.

"One last thing," she said, looking at Ye Yunting with unwavering determination. "I hope the Prince will forever remember today's words and never come to regret them."

Ye Yunting's heart inexplicably skipped a beat, bitterness and pain spreading, overwhelmed with irritability.

However, he quickly suppressed these emotions and said sternly, "I can promise you that, and I will never regret it." To such a malicious woman, he felt he wasn't ruthless enough.

With his assurance, Chu Nanli relaxed slightly and waited for Ye Yunting to send Nanny Hua's belongings to her quarters; she barely managed to hold herself from collapsing by grabbing onto a table.

After taking a pill, it took a while for Chu Nanli to regain some strength, her mood quite unpleasant.

Today, that despicable man Ye Yunting had exerted a good portion of his inner strength to choke her, truly intending to kill!

She could no longer afford to wait passively under this hot-headed man. But she needed to investigate the origin of today's brazier, possibly the original owner's family had helped secretly?
