Chapter 471 Fake Comfort

Chapter 471: Chapter 471 Fake Comfort

Although she had just tricked Bai Wuheng in front of Ye Yunting,

Lin Fuying did not feel the slightest bit embarrassed, and instead was quite composed.

"Brother Bai, how is your hand injury?"

The concern on Lin Fuying’s face seemed genuine, but to Bai Wuheng, even if it were real, it still carried a hint of falsity.

Seeing Bai Wuheng with a cold expression and silent, she inevitably grew a bit impatient.

In her view, she had always been the dominant party in her relationship with Bai Wuheng.

So on what grounds could Bai Wuheng give her such an attitude?

Even though she looked down on Bai Wuheng in her heart, she had to admit that Bai Wuheng still held a lot of utilitarian value to her at present.

By whatever means necessary, she had to coax him back first.

"Brother Bai, I... I truly didn’t expect Brother Yunting to strike so harshly."

Her face was a picture of panic and confusion, as if what had just happened had nothing to do with her at all.

"Your injury..."

"The injury is a minor matter, first tell me, why did you do those things without telling me?"

He had really thought that Lin Fuying was asking for his help just to have his people gather information on Ye Yunting’s movements.

Little did he know that Lin Fuying would go to such lengths!

If she had only targeted Chu Nanli, that would have been one thing, but she had even targeted an innocent baby.

How could Lin Fuying have turned into this?

"I, I was just too scared," said Lin Fuying timidly, looking at Bai Wuheng, "Brother Bai, you don’t know what Brother Yunting said to me."

"He said, once my sister gives birth to the child, he plans to bring her back, and then he would make me pay the price! I was confused, that’s why I did those things."

If this had been earlier, Bai Wuheng might have actually believed her words.

But now, having seen through Lin Fuying’s true nature, how could he possibly believe such nonsense?

"But don’t forget, she was originally the Princess Consort of the War King Residence. If it hadn’t been for all that happened, she wouldn’t have separated from Yunting."

Although Ye Yunting truly did commit many wrongdoings, Bai Wuheng couldn’t deny that Lin Fuying had done even more evil deeds.

He had now realized that all along, he had harbored too many biases against Chu Nanli simply based on Lin Fuying’s words.

In fact, from the beginning, Chu Nanli had done nothing wrong.

The fault lay with them.

"How can you say that?"

Lin Fuying’s expression twisted in an instant.

What was Bai Wuheng talking about?

If it weren’t for Chu Nanli taking the position of Princess Consort she had long desired, why would she have targeted Chu Nanli?

So, it’s clearly Chu Nanli’s fault!

She was just trying to reclaim what was originally hers, how could that be wrong?

But considering the servants of the Prince Residence were still outside, Lin Fuying couldn’t reveal her true nature and had to suppress all her anger inside.

Bai Wuheng, looking at her this way, felt even more disappointed.

He had always hoped that Lin Fuying would repent, but Lin Fuying had only brought him disappointment after disappointment.

"Yingying, what I’ve said is true, and besides, even if Yunting truly expels you from the War King Residence, I wouldn’t ignore you at that moment."

With Bai Wuheng’s capabilities, protecting Lin Fuying was indeed well within his means.

But what she wanted was clearly not a peaceful life.

The power and status she desired could only be given to her by someone in a high position, not by Bai Wuheng, who knew nothing but medicine.

Lin Fuying used all her strength to restrain herself, managing not to show obvious contempt.

She looked at Bai Wuheng pitifully, "Brother Bai, I just want to protect what’s mine. Is that not allowed?"

"That’s not what I mean, it’s just..."

"Enough, Brother Bai, you should rest and heal."

Lin Fuying ran out of patience to continue the argument and turned around to leave.

As for Bai Wuheng’s injuries, she was not as worried as she appeared.

Even if this time Bai Wuheng was injured beyond recovery, she wouldn’t care and would only be annoyed at losing a helper for herself.

As she walked out, Lin Fuying instantly dropped her gentle facade, and her expression turned extremely unsightly.

In her eyes, Bai Wuheng had crossed the line this time.

It was clearly Ye Yunting who had injured his hand, so why was he giving her such an attitude?

She completely overlooked that Bai Wuheng had just been accusing her of perpetrating harm, which is why his attitude had been so terrible.

Moreover, the things she had done not only implicated Bai Wuheng but could potentially make him enemies with Ye Yunting forever.

She had never considered these consequences.

"Really, if it weren’t for the fact that he might still be of use later, I wouldn’t bother to coddle him like this!"

Lin Fuying snorted coldly; the excuse of visiting Bai Wuheng had briefly allowed her to come out.

Now she could only be confined again.

Fortunately, due to Bai Wuheng’s injuries, Ye Yunting did not pursue the matter further.

Thus, she temporarily escaped disaster.

...

The person who had secretly instructed the midwife to harm the baby didn’t need to be specifically identified; Chu Nanli could guess who it was.

Apart from Lin Fuying, who else could it be?

In the capital, only Lin Fuying would hate her so much, wishing her dead.

This time she was alert enough not to fall for Lin Fuying’s trap.

Even if nothing had happened, that didn’t mean she wouldn’t hold a grudge.

However, for now, she had no way to deal with Lin Fuying, she could only keep it in mind until she could leave this place.

Because of the current situation, Chu Nanli also couldn’t return to her space to check on her child or to see how the other child was doing.

Fortunately, the child born in a rush was relatively healthy, having been born just three days ago, he cried only when hungry, otherwise, he was as quiet as a little angel.

"Taosu, little Taosu, look here, look at mommy here."

Chu Nanli, currently unable to get out of bed, had someone bring the child over to her side.

She looked at the child and truly felt her heart melting, thinking him extremely adorable no matter how she looked.

"My lady, do you really want to call the young master by this name?"

Yanyan had been holding back for three days but finally couldn’t help but express her concern.

"I always feel that the name is a bit odd. What if the young master finds it strange when he grows up? What then?"

"What’s strange about it," Chu Nanli was completely satisfied with this nickname, "After all, it’s just a nickname, and I think Taosu likes it. Look, he even smiled at me just now."
