Chapter 290: Chapter 291 Many Possibilities

"Could it be..."

Chu Nanli wouldn’t be pregnant, would she?

Lin Fuying had grown up in the back house since she was a child and had seen the hardships of her own mother’s pregnancies.

When a woman has non-stop retching, eight or nine times out of ten it’s a sign of pregnancy.

Hadn’t she just lost a child?

Moreover, she had conspired with Yang Shu to send Sterility Soup Medicine to Chu Nanli. After swallowing that bowl of medicine, Chu Nanli shouldn’t ever be able to carry a child again.

Unless, she didn’t drink it!

However, even if Chu Nanli truly was pregnant again, the child in her belly absolutely wouldn’t be Ye Yunting’s!

But it hadn’t been long since she had aborted the baby, could she really get pregnant so quickly?

At this moment, Lin Fuying also felt somewhat uncertain.

Regardless of which possibility, she couldn’t completely relax.

It seemed she must go and test the waters herself.

She had just said those words to Chu Nanli today; Chu Nanli certainly wouldn’t see her again.

Unless, Ye Yunting would go with her.

Lin Fuying, who had just returned to the Prince Residence not long ago, disregarded her own frail health and quickly went to find Ye Yunting again.

"Yunting brother, about today’s incident, it truly was Yingying’s fault."

Before Ye Yunting could even speak, Lin Fuying had already started crying and wailing.

"If it weren’t for Yingying failing to discipline her servants, such an incident would not have occurred."

"Actually today, I sensed that sister still has thoughts of coming back. If it wasn’t for what happened, maybe, I would have already persuaded her."

Ye Yunting’s face grew colder, "That woman, she simply doesn’t appreciate kindness!"

"After all, sister just lost a child not long ago. It’s only natural for her mood to fluctuate."

Lin Fuying was buttering up Ye Yunting while not forgetting to secretly belittle Chu Nanli.

"How about this, Yunting brother, shall I visit sister tomorrow to apologize?"

Her smile held a hint of reluctance, "As long as it can help Yunting brother, Yingying is willing to do anything."

"But, your health..."

Ye Yunting frowned. Although the physician had said that Lin Fuying hadn’t ingested much poison,

Yingying had always been weak, and there was no guarantee there wouldn’t be any lingering problems.

"It’s okay, Yunting brother, I’m fine," Lin Fuying said, then coughed softly a few times.

"Fine then, tomorrow, I’ll accompany you there."

Ye Yunting ignored that strange feeling in his heart, and didn’t even consider whether he wanted to accompany Lin Fuying, or if it was to see Chu Nanli.

"But wouldn’t that trouble you too much, Yunting brother?"

"Although sister doesn’t like me, she’s always been sensible. Even if it’s just me going, surely sister won’t make things difficult for me."

Lin Fuying suppressed the thrill in her heart; what she wanted was for Ye Yunting to be with her.

What use is it for her alone to flaunt in front of Chu Nanli?

She firmly believed that, no matter how indifferent Chu Nanli appeared on the surface, she surely couldn’t let go of Ye Yunting in her heart.

Seeing the man she deeply loved being intimate with another woman, she could already picture how splendid the expression on Chu Nanli’s face would be!

"In my opinion, she has been increasingly crossing the line recently!"

Ye Yunting looked at the obedient Lin Fuying, then thought of Chu Nanli and felt even more irritated.

Why can’t that woman be as compliant as Yingying?

If only she would learn from Yingying, maybe he would be willing to treat her more affectionately.

"Yunting brother, don’t speak so ill of sister, she’s actually quite nice. Today, I offended sister so, yet she said nothing. Yingying is actually very grateful in her heart."

"Besides, it’s Yingying’s fault to begin with, for taking sister’s place. If sister harbors any resentment and takes it out on me, she would be justified."

Lin Fuying bowed her head, hiding the triumph in her eyes, but couldn’t help reaching out to pull on Ye Yunting’s sleeve.

However, Ye Yunting casually waved his hand and dodged her movement.

This was a subconscious action.

Although he had had two "intimate" encounters with Lin Fuying, Ye Yunting, when sober, still didn’t want to touch her.

Lin Fuying’s fingertips immediately pinched into the palm of her hand.

She had noticed Ye Yunting’s resistance.

But even so, she didn’t dare to show the slightest dissatisfaction in front of Ye Yunting.

...

After returning from the Duke Residence, Chu Nanli thought she might have some peace for a while.

Unexpectedly, trouble came knocking the very next day,

Outside the small courtyard, a carriage bearing the War King Residence’s insignia had already stopped at the door.

"Yunting brother, what should I do if sister doesn’t want to see me?" Lin Fuying’s face was filled with anxiety, and beside her was an exquisitely fashioned food box.

Inside were pastries she had meticulously made.

To highlight her painstaking efforts, she had suffered many injuries to her hands, which were hastily bandaged.

"She won’t."

In Ye Yunting’s view, having condescended to come here, Chu Nanli surely wouldn’t refuse to see him.

"I won’t see her!"

Chu Nanli’s complexion turned extremely ugly upon learning that Lin Fuying had arrived at the door.

She had thought that after yesterday’s fiasco, Lin Fuying would lay low for a few days.

Why was she still haunting her like a persistent ghost?

"But it seems the Prince has also come along." Yanyan spoke hesitantly, fully aware of how tyrannical Ye Yunting could be.

If the mistress refused, Ye Yunting might just directly order someone to break down the gate.

"He came too?"

Thinking of this despicable man, Chu Nanli’s mood worsened even further.

She and Yanyan had the same thought.

Even if she refused, Ye Yunting, the man who couldn’t take a hint, definitely wouldn’t let the matter rest.

"Forget it, let them in."

Chu Nanli looked towards the entrance with a heavy gaze, hesitated for a moment, but eventually took out the pills that suppress pregnancy nausea and swallowed them.

Although they were somewhat harmful to her health, to avoid the dog couple discovering the pregnancy, she had no choice but to take them.

Just when Ye Yunting’s patience was nearly exhausted, Ye Yi finally came out of the courtyard.

He didn’t dare to tell Ye Yunting about Chu Nanli’s attitude, and instead spoke tactfully, "The Princess Consort heard that the Prince was coming and immediately arranged for preparations, which is why there was a delay."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yunting’s face showed no sign, but the gloom in his eyes had dissipated without a trace.

In its place was a sense of pleasure he himself hadn’t noticed.

Lin Fuying, standing by his side, had her face turn unsightly in an instant.

She had made a special trip here today, not to have Chu Nanli steal the spotlight!

"Yunting brother, the cottage sister lives in is way too humble..."

Even though she had been here before, Lin Fuying still pretended as if she knew nothing about it.

"Sister has indeed had a hard time living out here on her own."
