My Aloof Lord Ex-Husband Begs for Remarriage

"Prince, it's terrible, there's a fire in the Princess Consort's courtyard!" Nanny Hua, flustered, led a group of maidservants as they knelt on the ground, scarcely daring to breathe.

Ye Yunting's demeanor was gravely tense, his face cold and eyebrows furrowed. "What game is she playing this time!"

"It's true, the Princess Consort refuses to come out, she's even threatening to commit suicide, please go quickly and see!"

"If you delay, the Princess Consort might already be reduced to ashes!"

Nanny Hua hastily knocked her head on the floor, yet secretly hoped that Chu Nanli would be quickly reduced to ashes.

"Is she threatening me with death to force me to hand over the child?" Ye Yunting's face darkened frighteningly.

The usually meek and compliant Chu Nanli was actually threatening him!

"Ha! Let her be, I want to see if she dares to actually die."

Nanny Hua was startled, thinking that the Prince must not ignore this, and was about to say something else when Lin Fuying, sobbing, tugged at Ye Yunting's robe.

"Prince, please still go and look after my sister!"

"Yingying, there's no need to be soft-hearted for that wicked woman, let her make a fuss!" Ye Yunting said sternly.

"But, Yingying is worried about her sister, Yingying fears she truly means to seek death. After all, having just lost her child, as a mother, she must be in unbearable pain."

In unbearable pain? Truly wishes to seek death?

Ye Yunting furrowed his brows.

"Yingying being so considerate of others, truly benevolent, I shall see that wicked woman for the sake of Yingying's face!"

...

"Hiss—so hot!"

Chu Nanli opened her eyes to see her sleeve on fire, almost burning her hair! By rolling and smothering the fire with her body, she extinguished it, only to find herself already surrounded by flames.

Hadn't she died in a plane crash? How could she appear in the midst of dense smoke and flames?

Moreover, the excruciating agony in her lower abdomen, what was that about? Along with dizziness, a stream of memories not her own flooded her mind.

Chu Nanli, the revered Goddess of Chu Kingdom, who three years ago had concealed her identity and left her homeland to marry Ye Yunting, was abandoned by him like worn-out shoes, and was eventually forcefully induced to abort their child...

She didn't understand, it was clearly Ye Yunting who had saved her, proposed a marriage in return for her service, and even promised to solely be with her for life, why it turned out like this.

The pain in her abdomen grew more intense, feeling a gush of fluid falling, Chu Nanli quickly sealed her acupuncture points and took out a pill from her space storage and consumed it forcefully.

The space was basic equipment issued by the state in the year 2090, she hadn't expected it to also travel through time with her, which indeed was quite convenient.

In the war-torn year 2090, as a highly trained military doctor cultivated by the state, Chu Nanli's duties were not only in medical fields but also in combat and intelligence gathering, thus her space equipment was extremely comprehensive, including fire extinguishers and fireproof suits, which are the basics.

She put on a fireproof suit and planned to rush straight out of the inferno, but as she moved to the doorway, an invisible force halted her!

"First, I wish for my child to rest in peace, second, I wish for those who harmed me to suffer excruciating heartache and die miserably, third wish..."

The original owner's dying curses and oaths to the gods still rang in her ears, forming a powerful force. Chu Nanli remembered, it was this force that had drawn her here. To sacrifice the soul, what deep obsession this was...

"Rest assured, I will help you fulfill your wishes."

Chu Nanli caressed her abdomen, "Besides, you didn't leave nothing behind in this world, there's actually a child in your womb!"

The original body was pregnant with dizygotic twins, and despite all she had endured, one fetus had remarkably survived.

However, due to the original owner's extreme emotional distress, that fetus had almost miscarried as well. Fortunately, she had sealed her acupoints in time and taken the medicine from her space, thereby saving the child.

"I will take good care of her, and will not let anyone hurt or humiliate us again, go in peace," she said.

As her words fell, the invisible force that had been lingering started to dissipate slowly...

Then, a pair of ice-cold, rough hands, gripped onto Chu Nanli's wrist tightly, causing her intense pain, as a fierce and angry voice sounded by her ear.

"Chu Nanli, don't you dare threaten me!"

Chu Nanli was pulled out of the fire by a great force, and the next second, she was unexpectedly thrown out, and with a bang, she landed heavily on the ground.

"Merely over a fetus you haven't even given birth to yet, you dare threaten me with death, so oblivious to propriety, you're regressing the more you live!"
