My Aloof Lord Ex-Husband Begs for Remarriage
Chapter 253 - 254: Reviving the Sect

Chapter 253: Chapter 254: Reviving the Sect

"If Muyan doesn’t mind my ignorance, I will certainly respect my teacher and learn well from you."

Zhuang Muyan heard him say that and couldn’t refuse anymore. After all, they were classmates, and he couldn’t entirely refuse to give him face.

"All right," Zhuang Muyan sighed softly.

Ji Shen’s face lit up with joy, and he immediately knelt to kowtow, "Thank you, Master!"

His handsome young face was flushed with excitement as he turned to bow to Chu Nanli.

"Thank you, Great Master!"

Chu Nanli: "..."

Suddenly her seniority had been elevated.

And watching such a young man calling her Great Master, she felt as though she had also aged a few years.

"Get up. Now that you’ve joined our school, you must study diligently, abide by the rules, and for the rest, Zhuang Muyan will take you through them," Chu Nanli said.

With this one sentence, she had completely affirmed Ji Shen.

Ji Shen was so happy he could hardly contain himself, but eventually left at Zhuang Muyan’s urging.

Zhuang Muyan suddenly had a new disciple and felt some pressure as well.

"Master, I don’t know how to teach him," Zhuang Muyan said, looking somewhat troubled as he sought Chu Nanli’s advice.

"Pass on to him all the traditional Chinese medicine I’ve taught you," Chu Nanli said nonchalantly.

As for Western medicine, its theories are entirely different from the existing systems of this era, and now is not the time to promote it.

Promoting it would still be too dangerous, too difficult.

Only after she has raised her two children well, will she consider doing it.

"Ah? But I don’t seem to know how to teach..." Zhuang Muyan’s handsome brows and eyes were tinged with a touch of helplessness.

Chu Nanli looked at him steadily, "Then you should diligently study how to impart knowledge. After all, you are now a master yourself, how can you say you do not know how to teach?"

Chu Nanli’s expression was serious.

"Yes," Zhuang Muyan lowered his head, "Master is right, I should indeed study it."

Chu Nanli smiled with satisfaction, "That’s more like it. In the future, if anyone wishes to become my disciple, they can all be under your tutelage."

Chu Nanli thought, there might be people in the future who would want to learn her medical skills, and she couldn’t possibly teach them all individually. There was not enough time for that.

"Ah?" Zhuang Muyan was completely stunned.

He hadn’t yet grasped the meaning behind what Chu Nanli was doing.

Chu Nanli patted Zhuang Muyan’s shoulder and continued smiling, "In the future, I will entrust the revival of our school to you."

Ye Yunting had been standing by the window all this time, not leaving. Watching this scene, his eyes practically shot fire.

With one kick, he opened the door and strode out, bristling with anger.

"Chu Nanli, what are you doing?"

Chu Nanli frowned and looked coldly at Ye Yunting.

"Whatever I do, it seems to have nothing to do with you."

Ye Yunting’s face instantly darkened.

He grabbed Chu Nanli’s arm and pulled her up forcefully.

Chu Nanli was caught unawares and her lower abdomen was suddenly pulled, causing her to cry out in pain.

Ye Yunting paused, his gaze dropping to Chu Nanli, only to see that her face had turned instantly pale, devoid of any color.

He was somewhat at a loss, and his grip eased a little.

"It’s just a gentle pull, do you need to make such a fuss?" Ye Yunting said heavily.

Chu Nanli didn’t respond, but instead sat down again, clutching her stomach.

"Master, are you alright?" Zhuang Muyan, seeing her state, hurriedly wanted to check her pulse.

"No need, I’m fine," Chu Nanli said quickly, stopping him.

It wasn’t for any other reason; the fewer people who knew about her pregnancy, the better.

"Oh no, what happened to sister?"

Lin Fuying had just entered and immediately saw Chu Nanli clutching her stomach in discomfort.

She thought to herself that Chu Nanli must be up to her old tricks again, trying to evoke Ye Yunting’s pity.

Sure enough, she saw Ye Yunting nervously watching Chu Nanli, ready to step forward.

Lin Fuying’s brows were furrowed tightly.

She stepped forward first, blocking Chu Nanli.

"Sister not feeling well? Yingying will help you to your room to rest," Lin Fuying said, approaching to hold onto Chu Nanli’s wrist.

"No need."

Chu Nanli frowned and said, aware that Lin Fuying had ill intentions.

As Lin Fuying, harboring no good intentions, moved closer, Chu Nanli pushed her away.

"Ah!" Lin Fuying pretended to fall back violently.

Ye Yunting’s quick reflexes caught Lin Fuying in his arms, then he looked at Chu Nanli with eyes full of ice-cold fury.

"Chu Nanli, what are you doing!" Ye Yunting shouted angrily.

"I said I didn’t need help, but she insisted on coming forward," Chu Nanli replied coldly.

"Yingying is just trying to be kind, Chu Nanli, don’t go too far!" Ye Yunting said, his face darkening.

"Do I need her kindness?" Chu Nanli retorted, her stomach discomfort making her irritable.

"If you really want to help, take her far away from me!"

Fire shot from Ye Yunting’s eyes in an instant.

Was she so eager to get rid of him just to be entangled with Zhuang Muyan?

Watching the pressure around Ye Yunting grow heavier, Lin Fuying’s face lit up with triumph, forcing herself to pinch her own skin and squeeze out a teardrop in pain.

"Yunting brother, don’t blame sister, perhaps it’s because she is not feeling well that she is irritable. She didn’t mean to make things difficult for Yingying," Lin Fuying sobbed softly.

Her words seemed to be pleading for Chu Nanli, but in reality, they implied that Chu Nanli was ungrateful and temperamental.

After saying this, she looked towards Ye Yunting with determined eyes.

She had thought that Ye Yunting would be angry, scolding Chu Nanli, but instead, he was calm, showing no signs of assigning blame.

Ye Yunting looked at Chu Nanli, seeing her in apparent pain.

He had only gently tugged on her wrist a moment ago.

"Summon Bai Wuheng to take the Princess Consort’s pulse!" Ye Yunting commanded sternly.

He did not want Zhuang Muyan to intervene at this time, as Bai Wuheng was almost fully recovered.

Chu Nanli furrowed her brow, "No need."

"Chu Nanli, don’t be ungrateful!" Ye Yunting warned.

"I’m really fine, I just need to rest a bit," Chu Nanli forced a smile, choosing to endure.

The intensity in Ye Yunting’s eyes gradually faded, "I will take you back."

Just as Chu Nanli was about to refuse, Ye Yunting’s hand reached out toward her.

When Chu Nanli did not cooperate, he directly scooped her up around her waist.

"You, put me down!" Chu Nanli exclaimed in surprise.

"Behave," Ye Yunting said coldly.

Chu Nanli wisely chose to keep silent; it was just being carried, after all.

Lin Fuying watched the scene with eyes blazing with jealousy.

Ye Yunting had never carried her like that before!

Moreover, since her arrival today, Ye Yunting’s gaze had hardly left Chu Nanli, not even sparing her much of a glance.

She followed Ye Yunting’s pace and saw him gently place Chu Nanli on the bed, the action skillful, clearly indicating he had often held Chu Nanli this way before!

Lin Fuying watched with gritted teeth.

"Yunting brother, mother has asked for you," Lin Fuying called from the doorway, her voice soft.

Ye Yunting frowned.

"She worries about your health, having not seen you for many days. Now that we can move around the palaces in small groups, mother specifically sent me to fetch you," Lin Fuying explained softly, her voice sweet and pleasing.
