My Aloof Lord Ex-Husband Begs for Remarriage
Chapter 451 Bai Wuheng’s Dilemma

Chapter 451: Chapter 451 Bai Wuheng’s Dilemma

But at this moment, his heart was still somewhat conflicted.

He was naturally willing to bear all this for Lin Fuying, but what tormented him was his own conscience.

Especially with the occurrences one after another.

He knew well that whether as a friend or childhood playmate, what he should do was to persuade Lin Fuying to abandon these dangerous thoughts, not to get drawn in deeper and deeper like now.

But Lin Fuying had pleaded with him so miserably, how could he possibly refuse?

After much internal struggle, Bai Wuheng still couldn’t bring himself to reveal the truth, let alone how to start persuading her.

Ye Yi’s efficiency in handling matters needed no mention.

He soon had a doctor called in from outside.

As for the Imperial Physician, he would need to come later.

This doctor was someone Ye Yi found at random, with a clean background, and medical skills that were passable.

Upon seeing Ye Yunting, he was already trembling with fear.

"Take her pulse."

Bai Wuheng suddenly became anxious, "Yunting! Are you really going to do this?"

How could he let a stranger take Lin Fuying’s pulse?

If word of this got out, how could Lin Fuying face anyone in the future?

"I have said, right now I only believe what I see with my own eyes!"

Since Ye Yunting had spoken thus, the doctor naturally didn’t dare to resist.

He no longer cared about the usual rules of consultation and directly reached out to place his hand on Lin Fuying’s wrist.

Lin Fuying wanted to pull away, but Ye Yunting was staring at her so intently that she didn’t dare make any movement.

She had always been adept at tricks and subterfuge, yet at this juncture, she was at a loss for what to do.

Soon, the doctor came to a conclusion.

"To respond to the Prince, this lady’s pulse is somewhat weak, but there is no serious harm to her health. She just needs to be well cared for."

Hearing the doctor’s words, Lin Fuying was already disheartened.

She didn’t even dare to look at what Ye Yunting’s expression was like.

"She’s not pregnant?"

"Although my medical skill is not exquisite, I can still determine whether there is a pregnancy," the doctor initially wanted to say more, but catching Ye Yunting’s gaze, he was frightened into swallowing his words, "this lady, indeed, shows no signs of pregnancy."

In front of this doctor, Ye Yunting couldn’t well have an outburst.

He gave Ye Yi a look, signaling him to send the doctor back first, then turned to look at Lin Fuying once more.

"Now that it has come to this, what do you have to say?"

"Yunting brother, I..."

Only now did Lin Fuying realize that all the developments of today, she was led by the nose, with no control over her own situation!

And the person who caused all this was Chu Nanli!

"Don’t blame Yingying, all this was my doing."

Bai Wuheng resolutely stepped forward, deciding in the end to take on all the responsibility for Lin Fuying.

Even though, Lin Fuying did not appreciate it.

This time, Ye Yunting would not fully believe what Bai Wuheng said.

"It was I who feared that she would lose favor in the Prince Residence from now on, that I taught her to deceive you under the pretense of pregnancy to secure her favor."

"If you must blame someone, blame me."

Bai Wuheng spoke these words with a tinge of guilt.

But for Lin Fuying, he had no other choice.

Clenching his teeth, he faced Ye Yunting’s questioning gaze directly, "At the start, Yingying didn’t agree, but it was after my repeated persuasion that she was convinced."

Bai Wuheng’s statement effectively exonerated Lin Fuying.

No one could find fault with Lin Fuying now.

But he, he hadn’t considered himself at all.

"All these years, I have truly regarded you as a friend, but what gave you the misconception that you had the right to meddle in the affairs of my inner court?"

Although Ye Yunting didn’t entirely believe his words, this shifted all his anger onto Bai Wuheng.

"Bai Wuheng, do you really aspire to take my place as the master?"

The rebuke from Ye Yunting made Bai Wuheng’s face turn unpleasant.

Clearly, that was not his intention.

He did all this for the sake of harmony within the War King Residence.

Besides, if Ye Yunting could have treated Lin Fuying better, why would he need to meddle so much?

"How can you say such a thing? I was also considering what’s best for you and Yingying. Yingying is now rightfully your concubine; do you want outsiders to mock the War King Residence?"

What Bai Wuheng considered a well-intentioned act was, in fact, completely unnecessary.

But at least for now, Lin Fuying was truly grateful to him.

Grateful for his folly, which drew all of Ye Yunting’s ire towards him.

"The matters of my household are not for an outsider to interfere with!"

Ye Yunting looked at Bai Wuheng coldly, with the last bit of his patience exhausted by these words.

"In consideration of the bond we shared over the years, I can let go of what you have done, but now, get out of my sight!"

"Ye Yunting, you..."

"Ye Yi!"

Ye Yunting was not interested in hearing more and promptly gave the command to Ye Yi.

Bai Wuheng, unable to resist, was ultimately taken away by Ye Yi.

But before leaving, his worried gaze constantly lingered on Lin Fuying.

However, Lin Fuying, at this moment, had long lost interest in Bai Wuheng’s presence.

After Bai Wuheng left, Ye Yunting naturally turned his attention back to her.

"Yunting brother, I... I was really deceived by Bai Wuheng. He told me that only in this way could I keep your heart, that’s why I chose to do this!"

Realizing the situation at last, Lin Fuying decided to shift all the blame onto Bai Wuheng without hesitation.

She looked at Ye Yunting with pitiful eyes, "I didn’t want to do this initially, but he told me, as a man, he understands men best. Only this way could I regain favor. Yunting brother, I was driven to desperation!"

Her pitiable appearance failed to move Ye Yunting, which instead made him seem even colder.

"Is that so? What about the matter with the child? Does that also have nothing to do with you?"

Ye Yunting watched her coldly, feeling for the first time that Lin Fuying’s face was loathsome!

"Yunting brother, I...I wanted my sister to come back, that’s why I did it!"

Lin Fuying, biting her lip, could only choose to speak from what Ye Yunting cared about.

"I thought since my sister valued that child so greatly, if I could find a way to divert my sister’s attention, wouldn’t she be willing to look back?"

Seeing Ye Yunting’s expression soften slightly, she hurriedly struck while the iron was hot, "Yunting brother, I originally wanted to inform you of this plan, but...but Bai Wuheng stopped me."

"He said that I should raise this child first and, in time, it could also help curry favor with my sister and you, Yunting brother."
