My Aloof Lord Ex-Husband Begs for Remarriage -
Chapter 465 Despicable and Shameless
Chapter 465: Chapter 465 Despicable and Shameless
Ye Yunting didn’t have to bring up that matter, but once he did, she couldn’t help but think of the scenes she had seen in the original host’s memory.
The original host had indeed been very much looking forward to going to the capital suburbs to play with Ye Yunting.
She had finally persuaded Ye Yunting and had prepared everything when Lin Fuying found an excuse to call him over just as they were about to leave.
Ye Yunting had faithfully promised the original host to go first, and the foolish girl waited in the capital suburbs for an entire day without Ye Yunting ever showing up.
And when she returned to the Prince Residence, disheartened, she was informed by the servants that Lin Fuying’s old illness had relapsed and Ye Yunting had accompanied her the whole day.
Before she could even get her feelings in order, she was harassed by someone sent by Lin Fuying and fell ill for several days.
At that time, the original host couldn’t even get a glimpse of Ye Yunting.
"There’s more. Whatever you wish to do, I am willing to accompany you," he said.
Ye Yunting didn’t notice her displeased expression at all, rather feeling good about himself because of his own affection.
He was full of affection, wanting to hold Chu Nanli’s hand, to continue confessing his feelings to her.
But the moment his fingertips touched Chu Nanli’s wrist, she slapped his hand away.
"Doesn’t Prince feel guilty saying these words?" she asked.
Chu Nanli looked at him coldly, her face showing not the moved expression he expected, but full of disgust.
"Since the Prince still remembers this matter, you should remember how much I suffered back at the War King Residence! Even if you have forgotten, I certainly dare not!"
If Ye Yunting hadn’t brought up those past events, it would have been fine, but the mention of them made Chu Nanli feel even more disgusted.
Yet Ye Yunting appeared nonchalant: "I have already said, I was deceived by villains before and didn’t know about your suffering. From now on, I am willing to make amends. Won’t you really give me a chance?"
"The so-called amends of the Prince, is that taking me here and then having people guard against me with utmost vigilance?"
"I cannot afford such amends!"
Chu Nanli’s unfeigned expression also aroused some irritation in Ye Yunting’s heart.
He looked at Chu Nanli with feigned helplessness: "In your heart, could it be that you are still thinking about Uncle Emperor?"
"For your health’s sake, I originally did not plan to talk to you about these things."
Chu Nanli was initially uninterested in what he was saying.
But seeing him mention something related to Ye Jiuxiao, no matter how impatient she was, she wanted to hear what Ye Yunting was planning to say.
Seeing her attitude soften, Ye Yunting quickly struck while the iron was hot.
"You don’t know, upon hearing the news about your accident, there was no reaction from Uncle Emperor. And yesterday, Empress Dowager summoned him to the palace. I heard that she wanted to discuss the matter of arranging Uncle’s marriage."
Chu Nanli didn’t care about the insinuations in Ye Yunting’s words.
Clearly, what she cared about was something else.
Had Ye Jiuxiao already returned to the capital?
She remembered Ye Jiuxiao telling her that the place he was going to was quite far, and if there were any news in the capital, he might not be able to find out in time.
Now, it had only been a few days, and Ye Jiuxiao had already rushed back to the capital. How difficult must his journey have been.
As for the words of Ye Yunting, she didn’t take them to heart at all.
If Ye Jiuxiao had the intention to get married, he wouldn’t have remained inactive up to now.
He definitely wouldn’t be easily deceived by Ye Yunting; right now, he must be searching for her relentlessly.
Otherwise, why would Ye Yunting deliberately come before her to smear Ye Jiuxiao?
Seeing that Chu Nanli didn’t speak, Ye Yunting thought she was saddened by the news and couldn’t help feeling smug.
He knew, no matter how deep Chu Nanli’s feelings for Ye Jiuxiao were, hearing these words would inevitably stir some resentment in her heart.
And he was taking this opportunity to drive a wedge between them.
"Moreover, this time, the Regent King didn’t outright reject the Empress Dowager’s proposal. I think, perhaps in a few days, there will be joyous news from the Regent Prince Residence."
"You see, upon hearing your news, he didn’t even bother to ask but gleefully accepted the Empress Dowager’s arrangement; to him, you’re just this unimportant."
The disdain for Ye Jiuxiao that flowed from Ye Yunting’s words.
Such a contemptuous attitude wouldn’t affect Chu Nanli; on the contrary, it made her look down on him even more.
"The things you’re saying, do you have proof? Or has the Empress Dowager already issued an imperial decree?"
Chu Nanli’s face was full of disgust, and she really didn’t want to hear him talk anymore.
"Ye Yunting, you really haven’t changed at all. You only know how to slander others with such methods!"
"Using such despicable means to capture me and imprison me here, is there anyone more vile than you?"
Chu Nanli’s scolding caused Ye Yunting’s face to change instantly.
He truly hadn’t expected Chu Nanli’s affection for Ye Jiuxiao to run this deep.
If that was truly the case, wouldn’t his chances become even slimmer?
However, now that he had Chu Nanli here, he naturally had to figure out how to win back her heart instead of getting emotional as before.
For the past few days, his approach to Chu Nanli had always been to woo her softly.
Ye Yunting had always been confident, believing that as long as he kept at it, he would eventually move Chu Nanli and make her change her mind.
"Whether you believe it or not, the Regent King didn’t refuse the Empress Dowager’s arrangement, and that is the truth."
"One day you will realize that I am the best person for you."
He didn’t have much time left to be out, estimating that Ye Jiuxiao would be leaving the palace soon, so he could only say a couple more nauseating words before hurrying out of the courtyard.
Seeing Ye Yunting leaving so abruptly this time, Chu Nanli already had a hunch in her heart.
Perhaps, Ye Jiuxiao had already started to keep an eye on Ye Yunting.
Otherwise, Ye Yunting would have stayed to say a bunch of nauseating words to her, instead of leaving after a short while as he did now.
"He really is too anxious, isn’t he?"
Chu Nanli couldn’t help but worry when she thought of Ye Jiuxiao, upon hearing the news, hurrying back to the capital without stopping, perhaps even delaying the matter he was dealing with.
Although she wanted to escape now, she was also aware that Ye Yunting didn’t actually want her life.
This point, Ye Jiuxiao would surely understand as well.
He could have finished his current business first and then come back to look for her.
But he still returned without a second thought, how could such sincere and earnest feelings not be moving?
