My Aloof Lord Ex-Husband Begs for Remarriage
Chapter 143 - 144 Ingratitude

Chapter 143: Chapter 144 Ingratitude

Chu Nanli felt a chill in her heart and quickly dodged to barely avoid the blow.

If she had been hit by that palm, she would have undoubtedly died.

Ye Yunting also became instantly calm after throwing that palm; he indeed had not controlled his anger just now.

But who made this woman spout nonsense and deliberately anger him?

"Get out!"

Chu Nanli pursed her lips, did not speak again, and turned to leave directly.

Consider herself unlucky.

If not for fearing that Ye Yunting would blame his death on her, Chu Nanli would not have been so charitable to save Ye Yunting.

Even though she was a physician, she would not save a beast.

But now her power was weak; if something happened to Ye Yunting where she appeared, she would definitely be accused by Empress Yang Shu and others.

After Chu Nanli left, Ye Yunting felt even more irritable. Just as he was about to get up and leave, he discovered the silver needles on his body.

He suddenly remembered that two years ago, he was poisoned by a female spy’s charm gu. The military doctor cured him but told him a remnant of the poison remained, and encountering similar poisons in the future could be fatal.

So, did Chu Nanli really save him with her acupuncture just now?

...

Lin Fuying was restless all day. She summoned Dong Yue several times, but that little wretch didn’t know where to laze around.

"Where’s Dong Yue?" Lin Fuying had to go to the Servant Quarters herself to drag someone out and indeed saw a terrified Dong Yue.

"What’s wrong with you? Can’t you be summoned anymore?" Her eyebrows were tightly furrowed, extremely impatient.

Dong Yue quickly knelt down, "This servant dares not. This servant followed the instructions of the Empress to go..."

The rest of her words were whispered into Lin Fuying’s ear, and Lin Fuying’s eyes lit up, after which she dismissed the servants.

"Speak."

Dong Yue hesitated for a moment, then blurted out, "This servant saw the Prince leave the Empress’s place and went to the back mountain to bathe..."

"He didn’t go to see a woman?" Lin Fuying looked at Dong Yue with skepticism.

Dong Yue quickly shook her head, "No, no."

Lin Fuying’s heart surged with joy; it seemed that Brother Yunting had not kept a mistress outside.

Then why wouldn’t he touch her and instead preferred to relieve himself?

On closer reflection, it seemed Ye Yunting had been involved only with Chu Nanli.

"Could it be that he is keeping himself for Chu Nanli?" Lin Fuying muttered through clenched teeth.

Dong Yue dared not continue the topic.

But Lin Fuying increasingly felt that her guess was correct.

Ever since the abortion, their relationship had plummeted to rock bottom.

Chu Nanli bore a grudge against Ye Yunting, and Ye Yunting, being too proud to seek out Chu Nanli, was nevertheless holding himself for her.

After all, when she first entered the Prince Residence, her relationship with Brother Yunting had been harmonious. Had she not continuously instigated, Brother Yunting would not have lost patience with Chu Nanli.

"Slut! Siren!" Lin Fuying cursed under her breath, "How is it with Chu Nanli? Has she had her period yet?"

"To respond to the Empress, Xixi hasn’t discovered that... that little wench started her menstrual cycle," Dong Yue said.

Joy flashed in Lin Fuying’s eyes, remembering the time she encountered Chu Nanli’s morning sickness and felt that Chu Nanli was very likely pregnant again.

And the child must not be Brother Yunting’s!

"Keep an eye on her, and report to me immediately if there’s any news!"

"Yes..."

On her way back, Chu Nanli began to feel abdominal cramps along with nausea. She endured it all the way until she got back when she could no longer hold it and vomited.

Yanyan patted Chu Nanli’s back sympathetically, "My lady, weren’t you advised not to gather herbs yourself? Look how tired you’ve become!"

Chu Nanli shook her head, "I’m fine."

It wasn’t gathering herbs that had exhausted her, but rather the effort she used to dodge Ye Yunting had disturbed the fetus.

Yanyan, on the verge of tears, said, "This is not okay. You’ve almost vomited your guts out. You mustn’t be so reckless in the future!"

Chu Nanli responded softly.

She had to be extra careful now; the fetus was too fragile, and a slight mishap could cause a miscarriage.

"Ye Yunting!" Chu Nanli vowed silently, once her power was fully grown, she would definitely make Ye Yunting pay!

"My lady, I’ll prepare some plums to settle your stomach. You rest for a bit," Yanyan said.

Chu Nanli nodded.

She knew that if she didn’t seek treatment promptly, the child in her womb might be endangered.

No sooner had Yanyan left than Chu Nanli bore the pain to change into plain clothes, covered her face and left the Prince Residence.
