Chapter 94: Chapter 94 Resolutely Protecting Lin Fuying
Seeing this, Chu Nanli felt a growing fondness for this mother and son.
"You’re still injured, so you shouldn’t engage in vigorous activities,"
Chu Nanli reminded him gently.
Luo Shuye gave her a grin, his expression sunny and somewhat endearing.
"Don’t worry, benefactor sister, I’m fine," he said, then looked towards Ye Yunting and his companions, clearly intending to stand up for Chu Nanli.
"You judge without knowing the truth and verbally humiliated my benefactor sister, shouldn’t you also apologize to her?"
The boy didn’t stop there and specifically addressed Lin Fuying: "And this sister, not only did you try to steal the credit for saving someone, you even attempted to slander my benefactor sister. That’s really quite impolite."
Chu Nanli glanced at Luo Shuye upon hearing his words.
These words... Why do they sound so familiar?
It seemed like something Lin Fuying had said sarcastically about her earlier?
Not far off, Lin Fuying swayed unsteadily, her facial expression almost impossible to maintain.
"Why must the young master humiliate Yingying? Today, Yingying truly saved someone, and upon seeing the lady visit, she thought she had saved the young master. It turned out to be a misunderstanding," she said.
Luo Shuye looked surprised and asked, "Could you also mistake a face?"
Chu Nanli couldn’t help but let out a chuckle.
This young master might be young, but he seemed quite formidable in a fight.
Much better than Ye Yunting and Bai Wuheng, who, despite being several years older, were blind and ignorant.
"Enough, Shuye," said Madam Wu, seeing that Ye Yunting was starting to lose face. She then spoke up lightly, "Concubine Lin is unwell; she may indeed have seen wrong."
Though the words sounded like she was smoothing over for Lin Fuying, they were laced with faint irony.
Lin Fuying burst into tears and sobbed, "Yingying offers her apologies to everyone. It was wrong of Yingying to mistake the person."
Yet, she stubbornly clung to her claim of having saved someone.
She was even more aware that admitting to lying would mean the collapse of the image she had crafted for herself in front of Ye Yunting and Bai Wuheng.
Bai Wuheng, who couldn’t bear to see her cry, said to Ye Yunting, "Yunting, I believe Fuying. Do you?"
Lin Fuying also looked at Ye Yunting with tear-filled eyes.
The man slowly said, "This king believes you."
Hearing the expected response, Chu Nanli’s lips curled mockingly.
Luo Shuye, stunned, couldn’t help but run to Lin Fuying and, pointing at his own face in disbelief, he questioned her.
"Sister, look at this lord’s face, with such handsome features, such superior facial traits, and such a distinguished air, can you possibly get this wrong too?"
Madam Wu’s mouth twitched slightly at the sight of her own son, unable to bear looking directly at him, but she didn’t interrupt.
Lin Fuying took a step back, tears falling once more.
"Yingying did not intentionally recognize the wrong person, I hope the young master is not angry."
Before Luo Shuye could respond, Ye Yunting put himself between him and Lin Fuying.
"Young Master Luo, Yingying is unwell, you scared her just now."
Chu Nanli clicked her tongue silently, witnessing a classic case of a hero defending his mistress.
She turned her head to see that the mistress of the General Residence, Madam Wu, clearly had a darkened expression.
Soon after, she heard Madam Wu speak, "What does this mean, War God? Today I came on behalf of my son to acknowledge his benefactor, but a concubine dressed in green came forward to claim the credit. When exposed, she merely used the excuse of mistaken identity, and her apology lacks sincerity. Seeing that War God is protecting her, I chose not to fuss about it. But it seems the War God does not appreciate it. For the sake of a mere concubine, are you blaming my son for frightening her?"
The atmosphere became tense in an instant.
After all, Madam Wu was the wife of the General of the General Residence, and even in a confrontation with Ye Yunting, she did not lose momentum, possessing the composure and authority of a head of household.
Ye Yunting’s brow furrowed slightly.
Indeed, he had been too protective of Fuying earlier when addressing the young master.
However, he believed in Fuying, and the words of the mistress of the General Residence also displeased him.
"Madam Luo, Fuying has always been kind-hearted and has never lied. She must have indeed saved someone today. If you deny her good deed simply because she mistook the young master as her savior and regard it as stealing credit, isn’t that a bit biased?"
Madam Wu sneered in her heart and felt somewhat disappointed.
The revered War God, it was amusing that he could be so easily deceived by a concubine with her intrigues, who had no standing.
Being so easily misled, if he should rise to power in the future, the common people might not have good days ahead.
It seemed necessary for her to discuss this matter with her husband once she returned.
"This madam naturally hopes this has all been a misunderstanding," she said, not commenting further.
Suggesting both an end to the dispute and a mutual step back.
Ye Yunting understood the sentiment and nodded his head, then turned to instruct Dong Yue to take Lin Fuying back to rest first.
Bai Wuheng, concerned, followed them out.
