My Aloof Lord Ex-Husband Begs for Remarriage
Chapter 341 - 342: Meeting

Chapter 341: Chapter 342: Meeting

After Chu Yi turned and went in, Ye Yunting still couldn’t hold back.

"Has the Emperor’s Uncle forgotten that she is still my Princess Consort, your niece by marriage?" he couldn’t help but sneer with cold sarcasm.

"Is the Emperor’s Uncle acting somewhat out of his station?"

A flash of coldness quickly darted across Ye Jiuxiao’s eyes.

"Your Princess Consort? I thought that the Concubine in your War King Residence had long been the one in charge!" he retorted bluntly.

When Ye Yunting allowed others to harm Chu Nanli, why didn’t he remember then that she was his Princess Consort?

Now, when they were about to divorce, to say such things—he wasn’t afraid of being ridiculed outright.

"That’s my family affair, the Emperor’s Uncle need not concern himself!"

Ye Yunting truly hadn’t expected Ye Jiuxiao to be so well-informed about the matters within his residence.

It must have been Chu Nanli who told him!

That woman, she indeed still liked to slander Yingying behind her back.

"Then you shouldn’t forget what the Emperor said before," Ye Jiuxiao continued meaningfully,

"Today it might be a domestic issue, but in a few days’ time, that might not be the case."

His words always managed to easily infuriate Ye Yunting.

Just as Ye Yunting was about to explode, he was abruptly interrupted by Chu Yi’s arrival.

Chu Yi first glanced at Ye Jiuxiao before speaking.

"The master has agreed."

He agreed?

Ye Jiuxiao frowned slightly; he was aware that with him there, Chu Nanli could not be coerced.

That meant she must have something to say to Ye Yunting.

While he disagreed with Chu Nanli’s decision in his heart, he would not take matters into his own hands, preventing her under the pretense of her well-being.

Of course, he would protect her from the shadows.

Ye Yunting couldn’t care less about anything else; upon hearing Chu Yi’s words, he began to feel smug again.

He just knew it, all this was but that woman’s ploy.

How could she not want to see him?

"The Emperor’s Uncle should stop worrying about his nephew’s family affairs!"

Ye Yunting cast a smug glance at him and, without so much as looking at Chu Yi, walked straight in.

Ye Jiuxiao, of course, disregarded such childishly provocative behavior.

He gave a look to a Hidden Guard beside him and then turned to Chu Yi,

"Take good care of your mistress."

He had left those two female Hidden Guards by Chu Nanli’s side, so he didn’t have to worry about Ye Yunting acting in desperation for the time being.

And Chu Nanli’s willingness to meet with Ye Yunting did indeed come with another plan in mind.

She always felt that Ye Yunting’s visit was surely related to the divorce.

Perhaps even the Emperor’s stance was involved.

Ye Yunting hurriedly walked in and saw the haggard-looking Chu Nanli.

"What, you think that making yourself look like this will make me pity you?" he began with a frown.

"It appears I’ve truly disappointed you, Prince, by failing to die in the capital suburbs," Chu Nanli replied.

Despite feeling somewhat weak, Chu Nanli still stood her ground when facing Ye Yunting.

"Did the Prince come today to discuss our divorce?" she asked.

At the mention of divorce, Ye Yunting’s expression darkened once more.

But remembering the purpose of his visit, he quickly collected himself.

"I did come today indeed to discuss a matter with you," he said.

Ye Yunting’s condescending attitude was inherently infuriating to anyone listening.

And the words he uttered were somewhat unbelievable to Chu Nanli.

"I will, as you wish, treat you well from now on. Let’s forget about the divorce," he stated.

"However, the child in your womb must not be kept!"

"What did you say?"

Chu Nanli nearly laughed in anger as she listened to his shamelessly boastful words.

Her desire to divorce had always been clear from beginning to end.

How could Ye Yunting be so obtuse?

That’s right, had he not been so full of himself, he wouldn’t have been played by Lin Fuying like a fool.

Lin Fuying’s tactics were most effective against someone like him.

"When did I ever say that I wanted to stay in the Prince Residence? Could it be that the Prince is still dreaming even now?"

She had risked her life agreeing to go pacify the rat plague just to get away from Ye Yunting, hadn’t she?

She refused to believe that with her feelings made so blatantly clear, Ye Yunting could not see her disgust.

Now it seemed that Ye Yunting might not be unaware, but he had simply been deceiving himself all this time.

"Chu Nanli, don’t push your luck too far!"

Ye Yunting glared at her furiously, believing he had humbled himself sufficiently.

Yet, to his dismay, Chu Nanli remained unappreciative!

With no other option, he continued, "I understand what you mean. Given that, I allow you to give birth to that child. Is that satisfactory?"

But once the child was born, he would find some pretext to send the child far away.

Then he would tell Chu Nanli that the child was weak and did not survive.

Wouldn’t that solve everything?

"However, if you dare to betray me again in the future, I will not spare you so easily!"

"As if I would care," she retorted sarcastically.

Chu Nanli still didn’t know what he was thinking inside.

If she did, she would probably be so disgusted that she would vomit out even her last meal.

"If that’s all the Prince has to say, then please leave."

"I have already told the Emperor that after pacifying the plague, he would decree our divorce. I don’t plan to change this decision, nor will I."

Chu Nanli lifted her head and looked at him with a frosty gaze.

Her attitude made Ye Yunting feel, in an instant, that the distance between them was insurmountable.

Ye Yunting unconsciously clenched his fists, "Chu Nanli, you might regret this!"

The next moment, as if he had thought of something, his face once again twisted into a fierce expression.

"You wouldn’t happen to have latched onto another man, would you, to speak so brazenly to me?"

Ye Yunting instantly thought back to the scene he had witnessed that day.

As expected, Chu Nanli, that vile woman, was still not satisfied after seducing so many men.

Now she even thought about seducing Ye Jiuxiao!

So shameless!

Chu Nanli did not know that he included Ye Jiuxiao in his accusation.

But she had always felt that the original owner of her body had terrible taste.

Yet, thinking it over, the original owner had always viewed Ye Yunting through rose-colored glasses.

If she were to witness all of this now, those glasses would have likely shattered long ago.

Chu Nanli sneered, "Even if I truly did take a liking to another man, what’s it to the Prince?"

"Let’s not forget, we are about to divorce!"

As she spoke, she couldn’t help but gently caress her slightly protruding belly.

Thinking about Ye Yunting’s treatment of this child, the disgust on Chu Nanli’s face intensified.

"The Prince doesn’t think he’s been doing well, does he?"

"Others care more about the child in my womb than you do. But what about you?"

For some reason, when saying this, Chu Nanli thought of Ye Jiuxiao first.

The things Ye Jiuxiao had done for her recently had indeed left a deep impression in her heart.
