Chapter 178: Chapter 179 Ye Yunting, Are You Satisfied Now?

Ye Yunting’s fist clenched slightly, his expression cold to the extreme.

"Mother, I will say it once more, the position of Princess Consort must be Chu Nanli’s."

"If Mother intends to meddle in my affairs in the future, do not blame me for being impolite!"

Ye Yunting glared at Yang Shu, his anger evident as he angrily swept out of the room.

His mother had always wanted him to marry a daughter of a powerful family for the sake of competing for the throne in the future.

She said it was for his own good.

Little did she know, this would only harm him and the entire War King Residence.

He could no longer condone his mother’s misguided actions.

Nor would he divorce Chu Nanli.

Yang Shu was stunned into silence until long after Ye Yunting had left.

She had never expected her son to threaten and warn her.

Was this his attitude toward his elders?

She was his mother!

Yang Shu was so furious she picked up a chair and started smashing Ye Yunting’s room to pieces.

Outside the room, Ye Yunting’s face grew darker as he listened to the smashing sounds within.

Ye Yi, terrified by the oppressive aura emanating from him, trembled, "Prince, Prince, shall we try to calm the Princess Consort down?"

"No need, let her be," Ye Yunting said coldly, before turning and striding away.

When Yang Shu heard the silence outside, she gnashed her teeth in even greater fury.

At that moment, she utterly despised Chu Nanli!

This vile woman must have deliberately used her.

She would not let Chu Nanli off easily!

Chu Nanli truly did not know that, despite her inability to bear children and Yang Shu’s pressure to divorce, Ye Yunting still refused to separate from her.

At that moment, she sat on the large bed, surrounded by blankets Yanyan had piled on her.

Ever since she returned to Chuxiang Garden, Yanyan feared she would catch cold; although summer had come, she still insisted on bundling her up tightly.

"Yanyan, I’m really not cold."

Not only was she not cold, but if this continued, she might even suffer from prickly heat.

"That won’t do, Your Highness. You caught cold in the dungeon the other day, and now you must recover well," Yanyan insisted as she brought over a bowl of brown sugar ginger tea that was steaming hot.

"Your Highness, drink it while it’s hot and sweat it out," Yanyan urged.

Chu Nanli: "..."

She wanted to say she really didn’t like ginger tea.

But faced with Yanyan’s worried gaze, she resigned herself to drink obediently.

When Ye Yunting entered the room, he saw Chu Nanli holding a large steaming bowl of ginger tea, sipping slowly with a frown.

Despite the arrival of summer, she was wrapped in thick blankets.

Thinking of what Bai Wuheng had said earlier, he felt an unusual irritability welling up inside him.

"Are you very cold?" Ye Yunting asked.

Chu Nanli was battling her dislike for the ginger tea and thus did not notice Ye Yunting’s approach.

Startled by the sudden appearance of a man in the room, she jerked her hand, and the bowl of ginger tea tumbled down.

Ye Yunting, quick as a flash, caught the bowl firmly, preventing the scalding ginger tea from spilling on Chu Nanli.

But a few drops of hot water still splashed out, scalding her hand.

"Ye Yunting, why don’t you make any sound when you walk?"

Chu Nanli looked at her reddened hand, feeling irritated.

Every time this man appeared, trouble followed.

Ye Yunting’s expression stiffened slightly as he glanced at the reddened spot his fingers had been scalded, remaining silent.

Chu Nanli noticed he, too, had scalded himself and frowned, "What are you doing here?"

"Is it true that you can no longer bear children?" Ye Yunting asked in a heavy voice.

On hearing these words, Chu Nanli felt a surge of joy in her heart.

Ye Yunting bringing up this matter must mean he was here to discuss the divorce.

It seemed Yang Shu had already convinced him.

Chu Nanli could hardly keep from smiling with excitement.

She pursed her lips and said in a suppressed voice,

"Yes, thanks to the Prince, I am now infertile. Are you satisfied now?"
