My Aloof Lord Ex-Husband Begs for Remarriage
Chapter 183 - 184: The Reason I Married You

Chapter 183: Chapter 184: The Reason I Married You

"Hmm, alright, I’ll wait for you, but please hurry," Chu Nanli replied with a smile.

She knew that Yang Shu, the Princess Consort, would "wake up" soon because she couldn’t afford to lose face.

The former master, for fear of losing the support of the War King Residence, never spoke out about her grievances and silently swallowed them.

Thinking Chu Nanli was an easy target, Yang Shu went even further.

However, in Chu Nanli’s view, the former master acted this way not because she was weak-willed but because she deeply loved Ye Yunting.

She loved him so much that she would rather sacrifice herself.

As for the current her, she didn’t care at all about Ye Yunting’s face!

If one day Ye Yunting realized that he had lost someone who loved him so deeply, he would likely regret it profoundly.

...

In the palace, upon hearing Chu Nanli’s response, Yang Shu was so angry that she smashed a vase beside her.

"This wretched girl! Now she’s learned to threaten me!" she said, clenching her fists in rage, her elegant nails almost piercing her palms.

"Your Highness, please calm your anger."

Fearing that Yang Shu’s further anger might affect them, Lulu, the servant, quickly offered a strategy.

"Why don’t you meet the Princess Consort of the War King and ask her? Perhaps she can give you an explanation," Lulu suggested.

Yang Shu’s cold eyes flickered.

After contemplating for a moment, she said in a deep voice, "Bring her in!"

Outside the palace, Lulu told Chu Nanli she could come in.

Chu Nanli followed Lulu into the reception hall, composed and collected.

Seeing Chu Nanli, Yang Shu was filled with rage and hurled a teacup at her from beside her.

"You shameless hussy!"

The cup, filled with hot water, flew straight at Chu Nanli’s face. If she hadn’t swiftly dodged, her face would have been ruined!

A hint of coldness flashed in her eyes.

"Has the mother not awakened yet? Still talking in her sleep?"

Chu Nanli asked mockingly, her lips curled in derision, "Open your eyes and look before you speak out of confusion and insult your son as well."

Yang Shu had always referred to the former master as a wretched woman.

If she was a wretched woman, then what did that make Ye Yunting, her husband?

Yang Shu, having been retorted, was so angry that she almost choked.

"You, you are insolent!"

Chu Nanli said nonchalantly, "Think whatever you like, but Your Highness surely didn’t summon me today just to indulge in a moment of verbal satisfaction."

Yang Shu became even more furious upon hearing these words.

Nevertheless, she became a bit more rational.

She gave Chu Nanli a sidelong glance and asked coldly, "Did you truly tell Yunting about the infertility news?"

Chu Nanli nodded,

"Of course."

"Isn’t that what we agreed upon? To get him to divorce me, or at least send me away, I would admit to being infertile myself."

"Then why hasn’t he sent you away, or even refused to divorce you?" Yang Shu asked with a serious expression.

Chu Nanli replied, feeling helpless, "I don’t know the reason. But I truly did want to divorce him."

She also hadn’t anticipated Ye Yunting’s insistence on not getting a divorce.

"I can’t think of any reason why he wouldn’t want a divorce,"

Chu Nanli said indifferently.

In her view, Ye Yunting had stopped loving her long ago and had fallen for Lin Fuying instead.

So, wouldn’t everyone be happier if he divorced her and promoted Lin Fuying?

Yang Shu frowned, then said, "You still don’t know the real reason why Yunting married you, do you?"

Chu Nanli was slightly surprised.

Was it not because Ye Yunting himself requested she dedicate herself to him and promised never to let her down?

Seeing that Chu Nanli was unaware, Yang Shu felt both shock and a hint of relief.
