My Aloof Lord Ex-Husband Begs for Remarriage
Chapter 273 - 274: Reap What You Sow

Chapter 273: Chapter 274: Reap What You Sow

Lin Fuying had not yet recovered from the excitement of successfully "receiving favor" when she heard about Ye Yunting’s whereabouts.

"That wretch, she must have thought of some way to lure Yunting over to her side!"

She knew all too well that when Ye Yunting left her, his face was cold.

But what could she do about it?

She understood Ye Yunting’s character too well.

Even if Ye Yunting harbored some grudges against her because of this incident,

As long as the bond of their childhood remained, she would win his forgiveness after a few days of appeasement.

"How is she so lucky?" Lin Fuying recalled the previous fire, wishing it had consumed her!

If Chu Nanli had indeed died then, it would have solved a major concern of hers.

What a pity.

"Dong Yue, have you made sure to arrange those people I told you about earlier?"

Thinking about her earlier plan, Lin Fuying’s eyes were filled with vindictiveness.

She could not yet claim Chu Nanli’s life, but that did not mean she would let Chu Nanli roam free outside!

Dong Yue, with a bowed head and obedient eyes, knelt before Lin Fuying, "I have arranged everything as you asked, but, those people might need another two days to get there."

"Have them go today!"

Lin Fuying’s face revealed a fierce expression, the very thought of Chu Nanli still out there enjoying herself fueled her resentment even more.

"I want to see if she can handle it this time!"

Dong Yue sighed internally but was forced to comply as Lin Fuying had ordered.

Meanwhile, Lin Fuying, along with Xiaoyun, hid at the alleyway near the courtyard, waiting to see Chu Nanli make a fool of herself.

"Concubine, how about we go to the teahouse up front and sit for a while? Your body is precious, how can you stand in such a place?" Xiaoyun, taking advantage of Dong Yue’s absence, was even more eager to please Lin Fuying.

Lin Fuying kept her gaze fixed on the courtyard gate: "This spot is perfect; I want to see what kind of expression that wretch will have on her face!"

Soon, Xiaoyun hurried over from the alley, clearly having prepared everything.

The expression on Lin Fuying’s face instantly became even more smug.

Before long, several thugs, their faces marked with scars, appeared near the courtyard.

All of them had a ferocious look, clearly not the kind to be trifled with.

"Brothers, let me tell you, this courtyard houses a new acquaintance of mine, quite tasteful!"

"It seems Brother Li is quite fortunate with women! Just not sure if he can let us brothers have a glimpse?"

"Sure, sure, we’re all brothers, we should share the good fortune!"

The conversation among these men was growing increasingly unscrupulous, and they even began to knock on the courtyard gate.

If a young lady lived here alone, facing such a shameless spectacle, she would surely be thrown into disarray.

Lin Fuying desired precisely this effect.

Not only did she want these ruffians to cause a scene at the courtyard gate, but she also wanted them to spread rumors about Chu Nanli all over the capital.

By then, Chu Nanli’s reputation would definitely worsen.

A Princess Consort of the War King with a tarnished reputation, even if Yunting agreed for Chu Nanli to return to the Prince Residence, the people outside would likely disapprove.

The look of satisfaction in Lin Fuying’s eyes grew deeper—she had to admit, such a cruel and shallow scheme suited her nature more.

However, Lin Fuying’s smile soon froze on her face.

Before these men could exchange more than a few words, the courtyard gate opened, and four or five servants emerged, each wielding a club.

They didn’t say a word, just grabbed clubs and started hitting those hooligans.

After giving them a stern beating, they finally continued to speak as Chu Nanli had instructed.

"Isn’t this Young Master Li? Just yesterday we saw you at the small restaurant, saying you wanted to get all your brothers involved, when are you planning to make your move?"

"And you, lad, I heard from my aunt’s distant relative that back in the village, you kept bothering the widow next door. Does your wife know about this?"

"All of you, don’t tell me you all have a liking for the same sex?"

The hooligans were first beaten up, then smeared with these fabricated gossips.

They just stood there dumbfounded, not knowing what to do.

Meanwhile, the common people who were initially attracted by the noise of the hooligans, upon hearing these even more sensational allegations, instantly forgot what had been said earlier.

These fabricated statements were much more stimulating than anything the hooligans could have said.

"How can they be so useless!"

Lin Fuying watched angrily. She had never expected Chu Nanli to come up with such a method to break the situation.

She had initially thought of using rumors and gossip to strike at Chu Nanli.

But now that Chu Nanli had let such words be spoken, these ruffians, even if they came again, would only remind people of today’s spectacle.

How did Chu Nanli become so smart!

However, with today’s events, Lin Fuying was very aware that her plan to tarnish Chu Nanli’s reputation was a complete failure.

She glared at the courtyard, and in the end, could only leave angrily.

Even though she did not succeed today, she still had other methods.

Now that Chu Nanli had moved out of War God Residence, she would never let him come back!

Lin Fuying’s departure from War God Residence today was done without informing anyone at the Prince Residence.

After all, she did not want anyone to know her whereabouts.

As Lin Fuying retraced her steps, she happened to encounter those few ruffians.

They eyed her maliciously, their gazes becoming increasingly lecherous.

"Who is this lovely lady? Why not come and have fun with us brothers?"

"She looks quite delicate, just not sure if she can let loose."

Their unrestrained words made Lin Fuying, who was already in a bad mood, look even more upset.

Seeing that these men’s comments were getting more outrageous, Xiaoyun immediately stepped in front of Lin Fuying.

"How dare you, do you know who you are offending?"

"This is the concubine of the War God Residence!"

Upon hearing this, the ruffians laughed even more arrogantly.

"What does it matter if she is a concubine? As long as we brothers make a noise, soon everyone will see the elegance of the concubine!"

It had to be said, these words really hit Lin Fuying’s soft spot.

If the people of the capital were to find out she had any connections with these ruffians, how could she ever clear her name!

But these were the very tactics Lin Fuying had intended to use against Chu Nanli.

Now facing this situation, it was her own doing.

"What are you guys doing here!"

The voice of a government officer came from not far away, seeing that things were turning bad, the group of men quickly scattered in all directions.
