My Aloof Lord Ex-Husband Begs for Remarriage
Chapter 173 - 174: Flaunting Power

Chapter 173: Chapter 174: Flaunting Power

Lin Fuying had just come over when she saw Chu Nanli leaning weakly against the icy wall, her face pale.

She couldn’t help feeling pleased inside.

"Sister, what happened to you?"

"Are you feeling unwell?"

Lin Fuying pretended to be worried as she drew closer.

Looking around at the grimy, cold environment, she frowned in disgust.

"The Prince really shows no mercy, how could he bear to lock you up in such a place?"

Chu Nanli’s face was cold, and she ignored her.

Lin Fuying giggled and said, "Sister, why must you oppose the Prince? Now you’re locked up here, and it makes Yingying sad too."

Chu Nanli still ignored her.

Lin Fuying continued, "Why don’t Yingying plead with the Prince on your behalf? The Prince is especially tender towards Yingying. Remember when Yingying cut her finger the other day? The Prince was distressed for a long time. So he definitely can’t bear to see Yingying upset."

Chu Nanli understood the hidden meaning in Lin Fuying’s words.

She was boasting about how Ye Yunting doted on her, unwilling to see her upset for even a moment.

Yet he was capable of being ruthless to Chu Nanli.

This was Lin Fuying striking at her heart.

Unfortunately for her, she wasn’t the original owner, and she didn’t care whom Ye Yunting held dear.

"Are you done talking?" Chu Nanli said coldly.

It wasn’t that she couldn’t hear these words, but her abdomen was in severe pain, making breathing difficult.

She needed to return to her space as soon as possible to finish the half bottle of medicine.

Seeing Chu Nanli’s complexion turn even paler, Lin Fuying felt even more smug.

She knew that Chu Nanli cared, and she wanted to poke right at her heart.

The more Chu Nanli suffered, the happier she became.

"Sister, Yingying is truly worried about you; it’s really heartbreaking to see you like this."

Lin Fuying bit her lip innocently.

A moment later, her tone shifted, and a trace of viciousness flashed in her eyes.

"Why don’t you kneel down and apologize to Yingying? I won’t hold past grudges, and I’ll ask the Prince to forgive you."

Chu Nanli sneered, so she had dropped her act so soon?

"No need, you may leave,"

Chu Nanli said coldly.

Her stomach was killing her, and she just wanted Lin Fuying to leave quickly.

Lin Fuying had thought she could crush Chu Nanli’s dignity under her feet this time.

She hadn’t expected Chu Nanli to be so defiant.

"Tch, sister really doesn’t know the times. You are nothing but a dog caged here, and I say I could crush you to death!"

"If I were you, I’d be kneeling and begging for mercy by now; maybe if I’m pleased, I might grant you a quick ending."

Lin Fuying mocked, her eyebrows raised in provocation.

"Oh, do you know why the Prince married you? I heard it’s because you demeaned yourself, desperately insisting on marrying him."

"Chu Nanli, such a lowly and humble person as you, why would the Prince ever consider you significant? He told me he never loved you, marrying you was merely because he was bothered by your incessant pestering!"

Bang—

Lin Fuying was about to say something else when Chu Nanli suddenly pulled her over.

Chu Nanli wrapped her arm around Lin Fuying’s neck from behind and quickly grabbed the iron chain nearby, wrapped it around her neck, and yanked back forcefully.

Lin Fuying staggered back a few steps, her body slamming against the icy iron door, her neck tightly constricted, and she was instantly frightened.

"Chu Nanli, what are you doing, cough, let go of me!"

She struggled while pulling at the iron chain, but Chu Nanli had no intention of letting her go.

She could tolerate personal defamation but insulting the original owner was unforgivable! The girl’s pure sincerity had been tainted by her derision as desperate and self-debasing.

Yet it had clearly been Ye Yunting who had provoked the situation initially.

Someone who gave their heart sincerely should not bear such shame.

Behind the iron prison door, Chu Nanli tightened the chain around Lin Fuying’s neck.

With Lin Fuying’s back against Chu Nanli, she had no way to struggle at this moment.

Behind her was the iron door, and moving forward would only tighten the noose.

"Dong Yue! Dong Yue! What are you dazed for, go get someone to save me!"

Dong Yue, who had been shocked silly by the sudden turn of events, came to her senses and immediately ran outside the cell.

"You may well go, but let’s see whether your call for help is faster, or my strangling her is faster!"
