My Aloof Lord Ex-Husband Begs for Remarriage
Chapter 378 - 379 Persuasion

Chapter 378: Chapter 379 Persuasion

His expression relaxed slightly, "It’s a good thing the child in your belly wasn’t harmed."

Lin Fuying, of course, knew better than Bai Wuheng whether the "child" in her belly was fine or not.

That wasn’t what worried her.

It was Madam Wan.

That day, she had made meticulous preparations, so how could Madam Wan still be alive?

Could it be that someone saved her?

But if she were to guess who had that much capability, she really couldn’t think of anyone.

Lin Fuying had not doubted Chu Nanli before.

But in her heart, Chu Nanli was still the fool who only knew how to be subservient for the sake of men.

Even if she had learned to be smarter recently, it must just be her strategy of feigned retreat.

Bai Wuheng didn’t know about her complex inner thoughts, and was still extremely caring about her physical condition.

"Enough, I don’t want to hear this!" Lin Fuying interrupted him impatiently.

As she spoke, she realized she had lost her composure.

She quickly squeezed out a couple of tears, "Brother Bai, I’m sorry, I’m just too heartbroken."

"I didn’t expect such things to happen today, nor to involve you, Brother Bai, coming to the Prince Residence to attend to me."

Bai Wuheng was unconditionally accommodating toward her.

Although he had been somewhat unhappy with her earlier words, now it had all dissipated.

He spoke softly, "What exactly happened? Tell me, and if someone bullied you, I will definitely stand up for you!"

"Actually, it’s nothing..."

Lin Fuying said this, but still recounted the incident that had happened earlier to Bai Wuheng.

Of course, in her narrative, she naturally portrayed herself as the most innocent party.

She had done nothing, yet was slandered by Yang Xuan, her own maid accused of betrayal, and she was even nearly injured by Yang Xuan herself.

After hearing this, Bai Wuheng’s face turned livid with rage.

"That’s too much!"

"Why would Yunting continue to tolerate Yang Xuan after she did so many evil deeds?"

Bai Wuheng really couldn’t understand, given Ye Yunting’s personality, why he would endure it for so long.

"Maybe, Brother Yunting also has his own difficulties."

The more understanding Lin Fuying appeared, the more indignant Bai Wuheng felt at that moment.

"What difficulties could he have!"

Bai Wuheng scoffed coldly, thinking of the Yang Family behind Yang Xuan, and became even more irritated.

"To me, it looks like he just wants the help of the Yang Family!"

Lin Fuying didn’t have him come over just to hear him defend her.

She naturally had other plans.

"Brother Bai, do you remember that time I fell ill, and you said to use an embryo as a medicine guide..."

Lin Fuying mentioned this while carefully watching Bai Wuheng’s expression.

She certainly didn’t miss the flicker of gloom that passed over his face.

This matter had long been a thorn in Bai Wuheng’s heart.

He had suggested using an embryo in the medicine out of necessity.

If they didn’t use this method, Lin Fuying’s health wouldn’t have improved at all.

But he hadn’t expected that Ye Yunting would actually directly order someone to abort the child from Chu Nanli’s belly.

He had done nothing wrong to Chu Nanli, but he always felt slightly guilty about that child.

"Brother Bai, it was you who initially brought up this matter, and I had refused it. Moreover, it is not my fault at all."

The appearance of Granny Wan indeed threw Lin Fuying into considerable disarray.

Although Yunting had not yet become suspicious of her,

even if there was only a one in ten thousand chance, she did not want to be despised by Yunting.

If she could prevent Granny Wan from revealing the truth, that would be for the best. If she could not, she had to prepare a way out for herself after the truth was exposed.

And Bai Wuheng was the only person she could use at the moment.

"Brother Bai, if Brother Yunting asks you about this matter again, you just tell him that the initial suggestion was solely your idea, and it had nothing to do with me at all. How about that?"

Even though Bai Wuheng held her in high esteem,

the straightforward words from Lin Fuying at this moment started to make him feel uncomfortable.

His complexion darkened, this being the first time he had shown a displeased emotion in front of her over these years.

Yet Lin Fuying did not notice it in the slightest.

"Now that I am pregnant, I understand even more the importance of a child to its mother. Brother Bai, for the sake of the affection we shared in our childhood, won’t you agree to help me?"

As long as Bai Wuheng agreed, later on, she could push all the blame for the death of the child onto him.

And she was being coerced by Bai Wuheng into agreeing.

By doing so, she should be able to divert Yunting’s anger.

"Yingying, how could you think like that?"

Indeed, even if Lin Fuying hadn’t said these things, Bai Wuheng wouldn’t have meddled.

After all, using an embryo as medicine was initially his suggestion.

Lin Fuying had resisted fiercely at that time, but it was he who persuaded her, citing concern for her health, and thus managed to convince her.

"I had no choice, Brother Bai. Now at the Prince Residence, Yang Xuan is opposing me at every turn. I’m afraid that she will steal Brother Yunting from me. I’m just so scared!"

It was only then that Lin Fuying noticed the unusual look on Bai Wuheng’s face.

She was shocked inside, realizing that she had indeed been too hasty.

"Brother Bai, I’m just too scared. Ever since I got pregnant, I’ve been having nightmares every night, fearing it might be retribution for that incident."

At that time, she had someone dispose of that "worthless child".

But this did not stop her from acting in front of Bai Wuheng.

"What are you talking about?" Bai Wuheng said seriously, "This matter has nothing to do with you."

Bai Wuheng didn’t think that Yunting would care about the child.

Didn’t he utterly despise Chu Nanli?

Ignoring the discomfort in his heart, he still comforted Lin Fuying gently.

"Don’t think too much. It’s most dangerous to worry and overthink during pregnancy. Thinking too much is not good for you and the baby."

The caring words of Bai Wuheng fell into Lin Fuying’s ears, yet seemed like mere formalities to her.

Who’s to blame? Bai Wuheng hadn’t given her a definite answer earlier.

Fearing the day the truth would come out, she was even more certain that if Yunting knew the truth, he would never let her off!

Since Bai Wuheng was unwilling to help her, she would have to think of another way!

"Although when I checked your pulse earlier, there was no problem, I’m still somewhat worried. I’ll prescribe some more medications for stabilizing the pregnancy later. These medicines are bitter but very beneficial for your health."

"Don’t despise the bitterness of the medicine. Next time I come, I’ll bring you the candied fruits you loved eating as a child."

He gave his usual instructions, not noticing Lin Fuying’s perfunctoriness.

Lin Fuying nodded, feeling extreme disdain in her heart.

She now felt that Bai Wuheng was just good at sweet-talking. When a real problem occurred, he definitely wouldn’t stand by her side.

These men, indeed, none of them are reliable!
