Chapter 213: Chapter 214 Are You That Desperate for a Man?

"First the evil seed, then Zhuang Muyan, and then the royal uncle... Chu Nanli, are you so lacking in men?"

Ye Yunting looked at Chu Nanli, his dark eyes filled with fury, his gaze icy and piercing.

Chu Nanli had just walked over and saw Ye Yunting’s gloomy face, the air pressure dropping to its lowest.

Upon hearing his words, her good mood suddenly dissipated, and her brows furrowed.

"Ye Yunting, did you come here just to pick a fight? Won’t you ask what happened last night?"

She had experienced a fire the previous night and nearly burned to death.

This man did not offer any comfort; instead, he accused.

The original host’s wholeheartedness, entrusted to such a man, was truly regrettable.

Upon mention of last night, Ye Yunting’s dark pupils deepened further.

"You dare to bring up last night, Chu Nanli? You’re becoming bolder, setting fire to the firewood shed just to escape!"

Chu Nanli was slightly stunned, then her beautiful eyes gradually cooled, and her thin lips curled into a hint of irony.

"You actually think I started the fire myself?"

"Would I joke with my own life?"

"Furthermore, even if you investigate, you could find that the doors and windows were locked with iron last night," said Chu Nanli, her eyes deepening with mockery.

"You mean someone wants to harm you?" Ye Yunting’s expression turned somewhat ugly.

"Who would harm you? The only masters in the residence apart from you and me are Yingying. Yingying is kind-hearted; how could she possibly harm you! I think you are just making excuses for yourself!"

A sense of powerlessness suddenly surged in Chu Nanli’s heart.

She should not have expected Ye Yunting to find the perpetrator.

She would have to do it herself.

She now suspected that Lin Fuying was behind it, as no one else would have reason to harm her.

The other party repeatedly tried to put her to death.

Once she found the proof, she would make Lin Fuying pay the price!

Seeing Chu Nanli stop arguing, Ye Yunting’s expression softened a bit, then he continued to ask.

"What is your relationship with the royal uncle?"

"He is my patient," Chu Nanli glanced at him and said.

She did not wish to explain to Ye Yunting, but this man was very suspicious.

Better to avoid further complications.

Ye Yunting frowned, "Aren’t there doctors at the Prince Residence? Is your medical skill better than Doctor Lin’s?"

His implication was clear; he did not believe Chu Nanli’s words.

Chu Nanli tugged at her lips, "If you don’t believe it, you can ask Ye Jiuxiao for verification."

Watching her indifferent tone, Ye Yunting’s gaze deepened.

Just as he was about to speak, he saw Ye Jiuxiao calmly walking over.

"Nanli is indeed helping me with my recovery, does my royal nephew have an objection?" Ye Jiuxiao said lightly.

He referred to healing as recovery, as it was not yet suitable to reveal the Cold Poison issue at this time.

"Certainly not,"

Ye Yunting replied, seeing that Ye Jiuxiao did not wish to discuss it further, he did not ask anymore.

But he remained curious about how Chu Nanli had gained Ye Jiuxiao’s trust.

His royal uncle was always cautious, yet he let Chu Nanli help him with his recovery.

Regardless, Chu Nanli was his Princess Consort.

"However, Chu Nanli is my Princess Consort, yet she did not return to the residence all night, instead staying here with the royal uncle. Shouldn’t the royal uncle provide an explanation?" Ye Yunting said coldly.

"What, doesn’t my royal nephew know?" Ye Jiuxiao sneered slightly, his look at Ye Yunting carrying a hint of disdain.

Ye Yunting frowned, his expression darkening slightly.

"I still hope for an explanation from the royal uncle."

"Nanli was trapped in a fire last night; had I not happened to rescue her, she might be ashes by now,"

Ye Jiuxiao’s eyes held a clearer cold mockery.

"Instead of focusing on why she was at the Prince Residence, my royal nephew should investigate who set the fire, aiming to murder the Princess Consort!" Ye Jiuxiao said coldly, his gaze also turning icy.
