My Aloof Lord Ex-Husband Begs for Remarriage

Chapter 30: Chapter 30: Making Her Life a Living Hell Chapter 30: Chapter 30: Making Her Life a Living Hell Ye Yunting’s gaze heavily fixed on Chu Nanli, but Chu Nanli showed no fear and stared right back.

“Hmph!” Ye Yunting’s face grew even more annoyed, and he harshly commanded, “Go get another thousand taels of silver. Give the rest to the Concubine.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Fuying’s expression instantly improved.

Initially, she was displeased that Chu Nanli had easily earned so much silver, but now the Prince was being even nicer to her, making her feel like she had gotten her revenge.

“Prince, you are so kind to Yingying.”

Feeling the warm and tender embrace, Ye Yunting’s expression softened, and he said warmly, “Silly Yingying, you just don’t know how to fight for yourself.”

Chu Nanli felt like she was being subtly insulted again.

However, with more than a thousand taels of silver soon in hand, she decided not to care about these things.

Chu Nanli planned to take the silver and leave as soon as possible to avoid watching this nauseating couple, and rose to fetch the remaining two garments.

“Yingying doesn’t like these two outfits?” Ye Yunting’s voice suddenly intruded.

Chu Nanli immediately felt like she had swallowed a fly, feeling incredibly uncomfortable, yet she had no choice but to retract her hand and look toward the couple, saying politely while holding her temper, “If Concubine Lin is also interested in these two sets, then take them along. The servants will deliver the silver in a while.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Fuying displayed a hesitant expression.

“Sister, really, these two dresses are pitch-black, the colors too thick and profound, and they don’t look good when worn. Although Yingying thinks Sister’s looks are splendid, pure black dresses are very demanding. Ah, Yingying is not saying Sister has poor demeanor, just…”

“Yingying’s not good with words, and I’ve misspoken and angered Sister again,” Lin Fuying said flusteredly, looking towards Ye Yunting with a somewhat anxious tone.

Chu Nanli was genuinely annoyed, and she scoffed internally.

One sentence set three traps for her.

First, it covertly criticized her taste, then ambiguously criticized her lack of grace, and finally tried to label her as petty.

Chu Nanli’s lips twitched coldly, “Indeed, I am quite angry.”

Lin Fuying’s face froze, staring at her dumbfoundedly, even forgetting what she was supposed to say next.

Ye Yunting’s expression turned very gloomy; this woman was indeed hard to change!

“In the clothing store, you snatched the first dress from me, one of these two black ones. Concubine Lin really has a poor memory, it must be tiring for the Prince to communicate with you regularly.”

Lin Fuying’s pretty face turned pale, and being seen by the servants in the room, she felt utterly embarrassed and tears immediately fell.

“Why does Sister insist on dwelling on the matter of the clothing store?”

“Chu Nanli, get out!”

Ye Yunting shouted angrily, frightening the servants to their knees.

Being cursed also angered Chu Nanli. Holding the two black dresses to her chest, she said, “Once the silver is here, I will leave.”

After speaking, she picked up a stool, turned around, and left the room, then sat down in the courtyard.

Watching this scene, Ye Yunting felt an irrational fury burning brighter within him, wishing he could strangle the woman.

The servant fetching the silver returned promptly, breaking the frozen atmosphere.

Chu Nanli didn’t wait for him to speak, counted out the four hundred taels of silver, fetched the previously mentioned thousand taels from inside, and left saying a single sentence.

“Thank you for your generosity, Prince.”

The servants inside shivered.

Why did they feel, after the un-favored princess consort left, the Prince became even angrier?

“Prince?”

Not just them, Lin Fuying also felt uneasy inside, particularly worried about Ye Yunting’s continued interest in Chu Nanli.

“If you have something to say to Sister, then you should go. Sister likes you so much, seeing you would surely delight her; it’s just that she’s too proud to say it outright,” Lin Fuying ventured.

“A despicable woman who sees nothing but money, allowing her to stay in the Prince’s residence is the utmost mercy! Hmph! Dreaming of my affection, she also needs to see if she’s worthy!”
