Chapter 470: Chapter 470 Bai Wuheng Is Injured

Why does Chu Nanli have such good fortune!

After being struck with adversity so many times, Lin Fuying’s mentality has actually become somewhat distorted.

She even began to feel that as long as Chu Nanli was still alive, she would definitely be an obstacle to her.

Only with Chu Nanli dead could she have her way!

Unfortunately, now she could only temporarily suppress her hatred towards Chu Nanli, and dared not show the slightest hint of it in front of Ye Yunting.

"Yunting brother, you really misunderstand me," she said with a look of grievance towards Ye Yunting, trying to arouse his pity, "I stay in the Prince Residence all day, with no contact with the outside world, how could I possibly manage that?"

Seeing her reaction at the moment, Bai Wuheng was already certain that the person who had arranged for someone to assassinate Chu Nanli must be her.

His heart became ever more complex.

Nevertheless, he wouldn’t expose her in front of Ye Yunting.

What he didn’t expect was that from the beginning, Lin Fuying had been prepared to let him bear all the consequences.

She turned her head to look at him: "Brother Bai, even if you feel indignant for me, you can’t do this kind of thing!"

Lin Fuying had no idea what Bai Wuheng was thinking, but even if she did, she would still choose to say this without hesitation.

"Yingying, you..."

Bai Wuheng’s face was filled with disbelief.

It was one thing for him to take the blame willingly, but being framed by Lin Fuying in such a way made him feel somewhat uncomfortable.

He always felt that he had been used by Lin Fuying.

"Brother Bai, I know you mean well for me, but how could you lay a hand on an innocent child?"

Lin Fuying wore an earnest expression but did not give Bai Wuheng a chance to speak.

"You are also a physician, how could you be so indifferent to human life?"

Her righteous words made Ye Yunting, who previously had suspicions about her, believe her a bit more.

However, he didn’t believe her merely because of her words.

The main reason was, in fact, just as Lin Fuying had said, she was confined by him within the Prince Residence with only a servant by her side, and had no means of communicating with the outside world.

How could she circumvent him and make a move against Chu Nanli?

It was indeed possible for Bai Wuheng to do these things.

At this moment, Bai Wuheng was so shocked that he didn’t even know whether he should speak up to defend himself.

Although he had already seen Lin Fuying’s true colors before this,

the ruthlessness Lin Fuying displayed today still made him feel uneasy at heart.

"Yes, I did these things, but believe me, I really didn’t want to take her life, just to teach her a lesson..."

"Do you take this prince for a fool?"

Now Ye Yunting, believing to have understood the situation, lashed out unrestrainedly in his anger.

"That old woman has already confessed, when she struck, it was with the intent to take a life!"

Had it not been for this, he would not be so uncontrollably furious.

Ye Yunting’s words caused Bai Wuheng’s complexion to turn somber in an instant.

Up to now, he had regretted more than once the many wrong things he had done to help Lin Fuying.

Without his assistance, perhaps Lin Fuying would not have become as venomous as she is now.

His silence, in Ye Yunting’s eyes, was a sign of guilt.

Ye Yunting’s face became even uglier: "Considering the friendship of growing up together since childhood, this time, this prince shall grant you one last reprieve!"

He forgave Bai Wuheng, but it wasn’t entirely due to the bond they shared from childhood.

But there were too many factors to consider.

He wanted to punish Bai Wuheng, but he needed a reason. Yet, if Bai Wuheng’s actions were divulged, then his own imprisonment of Chu Nanli would likewise be exposed.

Ye Yunting had done so much and did not wish to see all his efforts come to naught because of these issues.

"Then you, don’t make it difficult for Yingying either, she really knows nothing."

Even with his heart deeply wounded by Lin Fuying, Bai Wuheng still could not help but speak out and plead for her.

Such long-standing habits couldn’t be changed in an instant.

"These are matters of my home, since when is it your place to speak?"

If it had been in the past, Ye Yunting would not have seen any problem with his words.

But now, he felt that Bai Wuheng was simply trying to meddle in the affairs of the Prince Residence.

"I just wanted to..."

"Shut your mouth!"

The frustration that Ye Yunting had been bottling up all this time exploded in that moment.

He picked up something from the table at random and hurled it directly at Bai Wuheng.

Bai Wuheng did not see what it was and instinctively raised his hand to block it, only letting out a muffled grunt when the heavy object hit his hand.

What Ye Yunting had thrown, in his anger, was a paperweight from the desk.

The heavy, hard object striking Bai Wuheng’s arm made an audible sound of bones breaking, heard clearly by the three people present.

Bai Wuheng’s forehead was already beaded with cold sweat from the pain.

"Brother Bai!"

Lin Fuying exclaimed, but that was all—her face lacking any real worry.

Instead, she let out a sigh of relief.

With this turn of events, she should be off the hook.

Now, even though Ye Yunting still despised Bai Wuheng, he couldn’t deny that his impulsive action had injured someone, and that was an incontrovertible fact.

"Someone, go call a physician."

Seeing the cold sweat on Bai Wuheng’s brow, he knew that if Bai Wuheng were to leave like this today, rumors would inevitably swirl throughout the capital by morning.

Even if only for the sake of his own reputation, he couldn’t ignore Bai Wuheng’s condition.

Ye Yi dared not delay and quickly summoned a physician from outside.

After examining Bai Wuheng, the physician soon gave a rather unfavorable verdict.

"This young master has suffered a heavy blow to his arm. With my medical skills, I can only temporarily treat the injury; but as for full recovery, I’m truly helpless."

The arm Bai Wuheng had injured was his right one.

Being a physician himself, he was painfully aware of the severity of his injury.

If things went poorly, he might never be able to practice medicine and save lives again.

Although Ye Yunting’s action had not been deliberate, but rather a rash move in a fit of rage.

Yet, as the injured party, Bai Wuheng couldn’t help but harbor a trace of resentment towards Ye Yunting.

In his eyes, Lin Fuying’s actions were indeed venomous, but in all this, was Ye Yunting entirely blameless?

After all, he too had played a role in Chu Nanli’s predicaments in the past!

If only Ye Yunting had treated Chu Nanli better in the beginning, perhaps now, she wouldn’t have become so heartless.

His expression grew uglier by the minute. Even when he saw Lin Fuying coming over "to visit" him, his heart did not feel much solace.
