My Aloof Lord Ex-Husband Begs for Remarriage
Chapter 490 Still Unawakened

Chapter 490: Chapter 490 Still Unawakened

It’s a pity, but he could no longer see the original owner now.

So, no matter how much he repented, there was no way to seek forgiveness.

Unless he could go and speak to the original owner in person.

"You’re right, I really don’t need to waste my energy on such a person."

Chu Nanli quite agreed with Ye Jiuxiao’s argument.

Now, just thinking about Ye Yunting made her feel fed up; she actually enjoyed the peace of not seeing him during this time.

Indeed, moving out of the War King Residence was the most correct decision she had ever made.

She felt incredibly free now.

"Enough, if he sends those meaningless things again in the future, just have someone throw them back."

Chu Nanli did not want to give Ye Yunting any illusions, letting him think that there was any hope for him.

And just as Chu Nanli had guessed, Ye Yunting believed that as long as Chu Nanli listened to his "heartfelt words," she would definitely be moved.

But what he did not expect was that there was no response from Chu Nanli’s side at all.

Ye Yunting’s complexion turned somewhat ugly, "Are you sure those things were all sent over? Could it be that Ye Jiuxiao was meddling, and they didn’t actually reach her?"

He was full of prejudice towards Ye Jiuxiao and naturally thought the worst.

Perhaps it was Ye Jiuxiao, jealous of him, who did not pass those things to Chu Nanli.

Otherwise, how could Chu Nanli remain indifferent?

Hearing this, Ye Yi’s expression was also somewhat inexplicable.

"Prince, I have thoroughly investigated, and there were no excess actions from the Regent King’s side."

Ye Yunting did not consider that if Ye Jiuxiao were as petty as him, he would not have let him hear a single word about Chu Nanli.

Instead, like now, he would at least let him know some bits and pieces related to Chu Nanli.

"Then he must have tampered with them!"

Ye Yunting had clearly fallen into some kind of strange paranoia now.

He was unwilling to admit it and could only push all the responsibility onto Ye Jiuxiao.

It seemed as if by doing so, he could solidify his own beliefs and avoid facing his own failure.

"Prince..."

Watching Ye Yunting become increasingly deranged, Ye Yi’s usually expressionless face showed quite a bit of worry.

If things continued this way, the Prince’s obsession might only grow stronger.

In the end, it might hurt himself.

But what Ye Yunting decided to do was never changed by external forces.

Especially when it concerned things he had already set his mind on.

The emotions he had been suppressing erupted completely when he encountered Ye Jiuxiao after the next day’s court session.

"Uncle Emperor, hasn’t it been a while since you last attended the morning court? Why have you come today?"

He directly blocked Ye Jiuxiao, and his tone was quite unfriendly.

Facing his aggression, Ye Jiuxiao displayed even greater coldness.

"Whether I attend court or not is none of your business, you should manage yourself first and stop meddling in other people’s affairs!"

If it weren’t for the presence of the Empress Dowager, Ye Jiuxiao would have taken drastic action against Ye Yunting by now.

Sparing Ye Yunting’s life was already an unusual generosity on his part.

Ye Jiuxiao’s merciless rebuke made Ye Yunting lose even more face.

Fortunately, besides the two of them, there were no other officials who dared to stay around.

Therefore, no one could hear their conversation.

Relying on this, the malevolent thoughts in Ye Yunting’s heart grew even more.

He stared coldly at Ye Jiuxiao and then suddenly laughed, "Uncle Emperor, even if you force her to stay by your side, what can you achieve?"

"Uncle Emperor mustn’t forget, she bore my child. She cherishes that child so dearly, perhaps it’s because she still secretly harbors feelings for me!"

By now, he could assert with certainty that the child Chu Nanli gave birth to was definitely his.

That was their child, the two of them!

Ye Jiuxiao was nothing but a despicable opportunist!

Seeing Ye Yunting’s deranged demeanor, Ye Jiuxiao’s disdain grew even deeper.

He actually felt that Ye Yunting really was just as Chu Nanli had described, with undoubtedly a screw loose in his head.

Otherwise, how could he be so laughably ridiculous?

His blind self-confidence indeed made him look quite the clown.

"How can you be so sure that the child is indeed yours?"

Only at this moment did Ye Jiuxiao deign to give Ye Yunting a proper look.

He didn’t even consider the idea of treating him as an opponent.

"Besides, Nanli has already said that she won’t tell the child anything about his biological father."

"Whoever spends more time by the child’s side in the future will naturally become closer to him."

In other words, even with the child as a bond, Ye Yunting still didn’t stand a chance.

He had been completely ousted from the game.

"No, it can’t be possible, she wouldn’t be so cruel!"

The Chu Nanli in Ye Yunting’s memory was naive and soft-hearted.

He had always been confident, convinced that Chu Nanli would continue to forgive him without limits, just like before.

He hadn’t even realized that the current Chu Nanli was no longer the same person.

But then again, even the affection he professed now was forced upon Chu Nanli.

"You must be lying to me. If she was willing to have my child, she must still have feelings for me!"

Ye Yunting nearly roared, as if only by doing so could he suppress the unease and panic within his heart.

"Why would Uncle Emperor use such words to deceive me? I knew her first. If it comes down to it, Uncle Emperor, you are the one who came later!"

"So what if I did?"

A clear look of contempt for Ye Yunting was written across Ye Jiuxiao’s face.

His men had actually picked up some clues.

That night, the room Chu Nanli entered might not have been Ye Yunting’s.

But since he hadn’t found concrete evidence yet, he hadn’t mentioned it.

"You’ve already given up, and now you have the shameless audacity to want to turn back time, where’s your pride?"

Ye Jiuxiao’s words made Ye Yunting’s expression turn even more sullen.

His face twisted with anger, "Is Uncle Emperor insisting on being my enemy?"

In fact, facing Ye Jiuxiao, he wasn’t entirely without confidence.

At least he knew that Emperor Father had always seen Ye Jiuxiao as his greatest enemy, wishing nothing more than to get rid of him at the earliest opportunity.

If he could just incite Emperor Father to deal with Ye Jiuxiao, perhaps he could eliminate Ye Jiuxiao without expending any of his own troops.

But that would take too long!

He was desperate to take Chu Nanli back now!

Presently, all he could do was declare open war against Ye Jiuxiao.

He refused to believe that he really couldn’t match Ye Jiuxiao!

"Being my enemy? You think you’re worthy?"

Ye Jiuxiao sneered, completely uninfluenced by his provocation.

"If I were you, I would take a good look at myself, instead of prancing around here like a fool, smugly satisfied with yourself!"

Having said that, he turned and left, not even deigning to spare Ye Yunting another glance.
