My Aloof Lord Ex-Husband Begs for Remarriage
Chapter 215 - 216: Finding Evidence

Chapter 215: Chapter 216: Finding Evidence

"It’s fine, some people aren’t worth it," Chu Nanli whispered, her eyes gradually deepening.

She thought of the original host’s determination to sacrifice her soul to the heavens and could feel how the original host felt worse than death when faced with the betrayal of both lover and friends.

"We still need to find out the truth, so that the Prince can see what kind of person she really is," Yanyan said indignantly.

Chu Nanli smiled lightly.

"The truth will definitely be uncovered."

As for making Ye Yunting understand what kind of person Lin Fuying was, she felt it was unnecessary.

Ye Yunting had already been blinded by love, surely unwilling to believe anything bad about Lin Fuying.

As soon as Chu Nanli left Yanyan, she headed straight for the storeroom.

In the storeroom, the Prince’s steward was counting beads on an abacus, scolding the servants.

Seeing Chu Nanli approach, he didn’t stop but continued to scold the servants for a few more sentences before he came forward to greet Chu Nanli.

"Is there something you need here, Princess Consort?"

"Check who borrowed the keys to the storeroom last night," Chu Nanli said without any small talk.

The woodshed door and windows originally had no iron locks, only a few wooden bolts.

Thus, when she went out last night, she immediately glanced at it, the iron lock on the woodshed had been taken from the storeroom.

The steward’s eyes narrowed, thinking of the events of last night, and he immediately guessed Chu Nanli’s intention.

He cunningly laughed, "Alright, I will check immediately."

Chu Nanli’s eyes turned cold, suspecting the steward was up to something.

The steward walked leisurely into the storeroom, not in a hurry, slowly flipping to last night’s records.

Turning to the page about the iron lock, his expression slightly changed.

The one who borrowed the lock last night was a maid from Lin Concubine Courtyard?

Thinking of the favors Lin Concubine had shown him before, the steward’s eyes darkened, secretly making a decision.

He checked to make sure no one was around, then raised his hand to tear out that page.

However, just as he was about to do so, he felt a numbness in his arm and his hand loosened, in the next second the notebook was snatched away.

He looked up ready to scold, only to see Chu Nanli, and couldn’t help feeling a bit guilty.

"Give me back the book!"

Chu Nanli ignored him, flipping through the records and indeed saw the record of Dong Yue borrowing the lock.

Seeing Chu Nanli turn to that page, the steward’s face changed drastically, and he reached out to snatch it back.

Chu Nanli scoffed, "Do you know that concealing a crime is an accomplice to the crime?"

The cold voice instantly sobered the steward.

Although he wanted to side with Lin Concubine and did not want to hand the evidence to Chu Nanli, he didn’t need to take such a risk.

"You jest, Princess Consort, I meant to bring it to you personally," the steward said with a forced smile, eyes devoid of any respect for Chu Nanli.

Chu Nanli snorted coldly, not believing his words.

If she hadn’t realized something was amiss and followed him, the steward would have destroyed the evidence.

Chu Nanli, no longer paying him any heed, took the evidence to find Ye Yunting.

At that time, Ye Yunting was in his study dealing with official duties, dressed in black, with his hair tied back, completely absorbed in reading reports, his already handsome features appearing even more stern and cold.

Lin Fuying, dressed in white, stood quietly by the side, subtly grinding ink.

Lin Fuying intentionally rolled up her sleeves, revealing a small section of her fair jade-like arms, with her long hair slightly drooping, entirely creating a charming and fragrant scene.

Seeing Chu Nanli approaching, Lin Fuying’s expression suddenly changed.

First, she was surprised by how Chu Nanli was still alive; then came anger, before she quickly calmed her mind.

"Sister, you’ve come?" She continued grinding ink, slightly lifting her head, her eyes full of provocation as she looked at Chu Nanli.
