My Aloof Lord Ex-Husband Begs for Remarriage
Chapter 271 - 272 Unwelcome

Chapter 271: Chapter 272 Unwelcome

Ye Yunting had never expected Lin Fuying to be so bold.

Therefore, when he woke up and saw Lin Fuying beside him with tears on her face, a fleeting intent to kill passed through his eyes.

Lin Fuying naturally anticipated his thoughts.

She simply lifted her head and stretched her snow-white neck out to him.

"If Yunting brother wants to kill me, just go ahead and do it."

Her fair and pristine skin still bore faint, ambiguous red marks.

One could easily tell whose handiwork it was.

Two lines of tears streamed down Lin Fuying’s cheeks.

She spoke in a sorrowful voice, "Yunting brother, Yingying really just loves you too much and is too afraid of losing you. I know I’m not worthy of you, and if it weren’t for our childhood friendship, you wouldn’t have allowed me into your residence."

"Every day, I’m afraid that this life is just a beautiful dream of mine; once I awake, I’ll still be at the mercy of others. Yunting brother, I had no other choice!"

Indeed, as soon as Lin Fuying mentioned their childhood, Ye Yunting visibly softened.

"Enough, don’t do this kind of thing again in the future."

Ye Yunting’s face was stern as he gestured to the people waiting outside to dress him and didn’t look at Lin Fuying again.

Getting too close to Lin Fuying still made him somewhat uncomfortable.

But Lin Fuying didn’t care about these at all.

What she wanted to plot had already been achieved; the rest was up to fate.

After returning to his study, Ye Yunting’s facade finally showed a crack.

He disliked the touch of women, so, had he really touched Lin Fuying last night in that situation?

If that was truly the case, then what Lin Fuying had said before might also be true.

But just thinking about having touched Lin Fuying twice made Ye Yunting’s heart begin to twinge with pain.

He always felt it shouldn’t be like this.

"Summon my attendants, the Prince wishes to leave the residence!"

...

Chu Nanli had thought that Lin Fuying would rush to give her trouble at the first chance she got.

To her surprise, all was calm and quiet.

Since she had not left anyone at War God Residence, she naturally did not know about Lin Fuying’s schemes.

But even if she had known, it wouldn’t have had much to do with her.

At least she could enjoy some peace for a while.

"Master, you only changed one part of the prescription, but the medicinal effect is worlds apart. This is truly miraculous!"

Zhuang Muyan treasured the modified prescription that Chu Nanli had altered, treating it like a precious gem.

This incomplete prescription was one he had copied down from ancient books in his family.

It had always been incomplete.

"This prescription is indeed exquisite. Study it carefully, and you will learn a lot," said Chu Nanli, never underestimating the medical techniques of this era. If given the chance, she would like to see the ancient books that Zhuang Muyan spoke of.

Zhuang Muyan took Chu Nanli’s words to heart, as always.

Admiration and veneration filled his eyes, which he could not fully hide.

"Alright, it’s about time, I have to go out,"

Zhuang Muyan had come over today to pick up the medicine left by the Divine Doctor Liuli.

Now that he had gotten the medicine and received guidance from the master, Zhuang Muyan was so excited that he almost lost his bearings.

"Where are you going, Master? Shall I escort you? As it happens, I’m free these next two days, so feel free to call on me whenever you need my help!"

As they spoke, they had already reached the doorway.

Their exchange was the most normal interaction, and they even maintained a distance of one person between them.

But to someone else’s eyes, it became Chu Nanli’s evidence of guilt.

"Chu Nanli!"

Ye Yunting’s gaze was dark, and he fixed his stare on Zhuang Muyan, who was conversing with Chu Nanli.

He knew it, Chu Nanli had done everything to move out of the War God Residence, just to have secret meetings with some wild man!

It hadn’t been three days since she moved out, hadn’t a wild man already come knocking?

"What are the two of you doing?"

Ye Yunting suddenly spoke up, and from his angle, it seemed like Zhuang Muyan’s hand had already grasped Chu Nanli’s arm!

A nameless rage quickly rose from the bottom of his heart.

After seeing this detestable face, the slight smile on Chu Nanli’s face disappeared in an instant.

Frowning, she spoke with a trace of disgust, "Why has the Prince come again?"

The word "again" made Ye Yunting’s disgust more than apparent.

Ye Yunting let out a cold laugh, "What, this place, the Prince can’t come?"

Actually, he wanted to say that Chu Nanli must be afraid he would disturb her little affair.

But when he hurried over, he realized that it was just a visual misplacement; Zhuang Muyan and Chu Nanli were still at a considerable distance from each other.

They hadn’t even touched.

The words suddenly became hard to say.

Ye Yunting’s words, however, reminded Chu Nanli.

She was considering letting Chu Yi write a sign today to hang on the door.

Ye Yunting and dogs not allowed to enter.

"The Prince can come, it’s just that, I’m not welcoming." Chu Nanli’s attitude clearly turned impatient.

In fact, Ye Yunting himself didn’t know why he came here.

After he left the War God Residence, his usually decisive heart felt an indescribable sensation for the first time.

Unknowingly, he ended up at Chu Nanli’s place.

"Then who do you welcome? Him? Chu Nanli, you really can’t stand the loneliness, can you!"

Nowadays, such remarks no longer affected Chu Nanli’s defenses.

She looked indifferent, "Is the Prince sure he wants to make such groundless claims in front of the public? I wasn’t aware that the Prince had the hobby of fabricating a cuckold’s hat for himself."

Not far away, the common people were curiously poking their heads out.

A bit further ahead was the bustling market.

Ye Yunting was a man who valued face above all.

His face darkened, "Enter with this Prince!"

"This place is my residence, and I’ve made it very clear, I do not welcome such a guest!" Chu Nanli truly wanted to pry open Ye Yunting’s head to see if it was filled with paste.

Is it so hard to listen to someone?

"If you won’t let this Prince in, then this Prince will have people tear down these gates and walls!"

Ye Yunting was still so adept at making threats.

A muscle twitched in Chu Nanli’s mouth, but she ultimately held back her anger.

She feared that Ye Yunting the madman might truly do something like that.

"Whatever the Prince has to say, just speak directly," she said.

Chu Nanli truly did not welcome Ye Yunting, not even bothering to have tea served for him.

Forget tea, Ye Yunting, that despicable man, wasn’t even worthy of a cup of water.

"This Prince only wants to talk to you alone."

Ye Yunting still had a cold expression on his face, his gaze sweeping over Chu Yi and Zhuang Muyan outside the hall, his face becoming increasingly unpleasant.

And these two were obviously on guard against him, evidently siding with Chu Nanli.

"Have them leave."

Chu Yi, of course, didn’t want to go, but eventually he left under Chu Nanli’s signalling eyes.

However, he did not go far, lest he couldn’t hear the noises here and fail to protect Chu Nanli in time.

Chu Nanli nowadays was not as frail as she was at the beginning.

With others present, it might even affect her performance.
