Chapter 1715: What a Pity
She convinced herself that Ji Fengmian had just returned and didn’t have much feelings for her cousin.
Therefore, even if Mu Wanwan was pregnant, it was nothing to her.
However, she couldn’t help but feel uneasy.
Even if she was pretending, she couldn’t be so calm.
Perhaps sensing Bei Lei’s gaze, Ji Fengmian’s eyes darted around before fixing on a certain spot. His gaze landed on Bei Lei.
The sudden coldness in his eyes sent a chill down Bailey’s spine.
She quickly averted her gaze, her heart beating wildly.
Just one look was enough to make her panic.
Ji Fengmian pursed his lips slightly, his shrewd eyes filled with sarcasm.
Bailey swallowed nervously to suppress her racing heart.
…
“Mother, since we know that Aunt Mu is pregnant, we can’t delay this matter anymore. Why don’t we go and bring her back now… I think Father will be very happy then.”
Ye Jingyun looked up at Queen Yulia. “You’re right. We should have brought her back earlier… Mother, look…”
Of course, Queen Yulia wanted to bring Mu Wanwan back as soon as possible.
It was time for her to give William an explanation for his years of compromise.
In the future, she wouldn’t have to worry about this anymore.
Moreover, the children of the Ji Family naturally had to receive the best treatment.

Nodding, she stood up. “We should indeed bring her back. I’ll go personally this time!”
It was time to put down her pride and express her stance to Mu Wanwan.
After following William for so many years, she had inevitably suffered too much gossip.
Ye Jingyun smiled and said, “It’s cold outside. I’ll go.”
Queen Yulia raised her hand to stop her.
“I’ll go personally this time. Otherwise, I’ll be worried!”
Ye Jingyun didn’t say anything else.
She clenched her fists secretly.
“Feng Mian, do you want to come along?”
Ji Fengmian slowly put down his pen. “Since it’s a joyous occasion, I naturally have to bask in the joy.”
Ye Jingyun and Bailey exchanged glances, their expressions ugly.
Queen Yulia was very happy. She turned to instruct Leah to arrange a car.
When Leah turned to leave, Queen Yulia stopped her.
“By the way, Lia, arrange for someone to clean a bedroom in the palace. I’ll bring her to the palace.”
Ye Jingyun’s expression changed slightly. “Mother, what right does she have… This is against the rules. I can take good care of her…”

In the words of her countrymen, Mu Wanwan could only be considered a mistress and concubine. Back then, she didn’t even say how long she would stay in the palace when she was pregnant. How could she…
Queen Yulia frowned at her.
“You’re talking about rules with me?”
Ye Jingyun’s body stiffened.
“No… I…”
“Mother, Aunt Mu will receive better care after receiving her. You won’t… work too hard. You don’t have to object to the best of both worlds.”
Ye Jingyun was furious. “What do you know? Do you know how delicate a pregnant woman is? She’s fine in the palace, but your grandmother is tired…”
“I want to be as tired as possible. Alright, there’s nothing to discuss. Leah, hurry up and arrange it.”
“Yes.”
Ye Jingyun’s expression darkened.
But she didn’t say anything.
Since the Queen had spoken, no matter how much she said, not only would it not change anything, but it would also make the Queen hate her even more.
Queen Yulia walked out of the study first, obviously impatient.
Bailey supported her with all her heart.
Ji Fengmian stood up with difficulty and sat on the wheelchair.
The electric wheelchair moved slowly towards the door.
Ye Jingyun didn’t want to be alone with her and wanted to leave early. However, after taking a few steps, Ji Fengmian’s voice sounded from behind.
“Why? Ye Jingyun, you should know how my legs became crippled, right?”
Ye Jingyun froze and turned to face her. “Feng Mian, what do you mean?”
Ji Fengmian looked up at her with sarcasm in his eyes. “There’s only the two of us now. Are you still playing dumb with me?”
Ye Jingyun started to tremble.
“It’s not impossible for you to enjoy wealth and glory. I was sincere to you when I gave you that pair of bracelets back then. If I had returned to the royal family earlier, I wouldn’t have ignored you. Why did you have to enter the palace without telling me and enjoy what belonged to me while killing me? Huh?”
Ye Jingyun took two steps back, her face pale.
“I really don’t know what you’re talking about… Why would I do that…”
Ji Fengmian narrowed his eyes as the wheelchair passed by Ye Jingyun.
“Do you think others don’t know what you’ve done? There have long been loopholes. Why do you have to pretend in front of me? That will only make you more ridiculous…”
“Think about how many lives you’ve implicated in order to kill me all these years. At the very least, the eldest daughter of the Yuan family is also the daughter of your biological sister. Haven’t you reflected on why she died?”
Ye Jingyun clutched her chest as she trembled, trying to suppress her racing heart.
“Her death is because of her own stubbornness and evil intentions. It has nothing to do with me. She… Although she is related to me by blood, what she did has nothing to do with me. Don’t try to twist my words…”
Ji Fengmian paused in his wheelchair and turned to look at her.
“If you hadn’t selfishly taken the wrong step back then and replaced my identity, causing me to be separated from my mother for more than 30 years before we reunited, perhaps I would have taken a bite of you now. But now…”
She paused and a sinister smile appeared on her face.
“Ye Jingyun, since I’m back now, do you think there will be a place for you in the palace in the future?”
Ye Jingyun’s chest heaved.
“So what if you’re back? So what if I’m not a princess?! Other than my status as a princess, I’m still the wife of the royal family. I’m your cousin’s wife!”

Ji Fengmian sneered. “From the beginning to the end, you only have a title.”
Ye Jingyun widened her eyes and looked at her. “You… investigated me.”
Ji Fengmian walked out in his wheelchair. “Do you still need to investigate those things? You should indeed be glad that you’ve lived the life of a respected princess for the past few years. Otherwise… it would be too easy for anyone to do anything to you.”
“It’s a pity that your title as a princess is gone. Now, even the daughter-in-law of the royal family will be lost…”
