Su Youli is forced to marry as a substitute, suppressing her true nature to become the obedient replacement that satisfies Li Tingxi—servicing him in bed at night and working tirelessly by day.
...Chapter 10 I'm tired of sleeping with you
Su Youling had never seen him so out of control, like a beast driven by desire, making her tremble. "Let me go, Li Tingxi! We're getting a divorce, this is rape."
Standing to the side, Lin Lexi had never expected things to develop this way. Jealous, she rushed forward to stop him, "Tingxi, don't be angry..."
"Get out of my way!" Li Tingxi's cold tone frightened Lin Lexi so much that she stood rooted to the spot, not daring to approach, feeling wronged and resentful.
She was still standing there, but Li Tingxi only had eyes for Shen Xiyue, that flirtatious bitch!
Looking at the anger blazing in the man's eyes, Su Youling believed that she had figured out Li Tingxi's temper quite well over the years. He was arrogant, unruly, and only responded to gentle persuasion.
Apart from Shen Xiyue, he has never stumbled with a woman.
Now that she has a face exactly like Shen Xiyue's, it's perfectly normal for her to defy him time and time again and anger him.
She has to protect the baby in her womb; she can't afford to confront anything head-on.
“Li Tingxi, if you want to vent, go find your new lover. Miss Lin is still standing here waiting for you to favor her. It’s not right for you to treat me like this.” Su Youling tried to reason with him. “I’m not the person you want. You said yourself that we should part amicably. I won’t cheat on you before the official divorce. Please keep your promise.”
Li Tingxi stared intently at his prey like a predator eyeing its prey, not letting his guard down for a moment. "An agreement?"
He glanced at Lin Lexi, whose face was pale, then suddenly leaned down and bit her earlobe, rubbing it wickedly. "Don't forget that your task also includes teaching my new lover how to serve a man."
Su Youling's body stiffened violently. Meeting Lin Lexi's resentful gaze, she felt utterly devastated.
In the past, Li Tingxi had been much rougher with her in bed, but she always tried to cooperate and please him, striving to be a dutiful tool.
Now, the thought of Li Tingxi kissing Lin Lexi's lips, embracing Lin Lexi's body, and then being intimate with her again makes her feel nauseous.
I reject men getting close to me from the bottom of my heart!
"Li Tingxi, can't we talk this out?" Su Youling was truly terrified of his endless, relentless retaliation. She was no stranger to Li Tingxi's methods; he was ruthless towards his enemies, like an autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves. If she couldn't escape tonight, her child might...
She couldn't help but feel a lump in her throat and wanted to cry. Her eyes were red as she looked at him. "I went to find Ding Muyan for the sake of the company and our common interests. I was the one who brought Yaosheng's deal together. We've been working together for three years, and I don't want to see Li Qidong get this great deal."
Li Tingxi loosened his grip on her slightly, staring intently at her.
Su Youling couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and continued, "As for Li Qidong, he's your mortal enemy. He's always been two-faced towards me. I wouldn't even look at such a two-faced scoundrel if I were blind. I'm going with him tonight to try and find out who the mole is who sold the design drawings."
“I said I would give you and the whole company an explanation within a week. It’s not just about winning back Yaosheng’s order, but also about finding the culprit, getting rid of the bad apples in the company, and clearing my own name.” She was practically raising her hand to swear, “I promise I have no improper thoughts about them whatsoever.”
Rationally, he knew that what Su Youling said was true.
But Li Tingxi kept replaying the ambiguous image of her wearing a hot tank top and being surrounded by two men in her arms in his mind. The veins on his forehead throbbed, and an inexplicable possessiveness stirred in his chest.
"Ever since you filed for divorce, haven't you been so arrogant? Acting like you're fearless and can't wait to escape from my wing!" Li Tingxi said darkly.
#Please do not use incognito mode whenever verification is required!
He pinched her chin, staring at her lips, "Isn't it too late to pretend to be weak and try to please me now?"
Su Youling choked, almost cursing. When did this usually proud and self-possessed man become so difficult to deal with? Was he really driven by lust?
It's best to get away from this dangerous man first!
"I didn't run away, I was just keeping our promise, isn't that what you wanted?" She subtly tried to move her body, her expression gentle as if she had returned to the way she used to be, completely obedient to Li Tingxi.
Li Tingxi was only in a daze for a moment when Lin Lexi suddenly stepped forward and said, "Tingxi, even if Director Shen doesn't want to stay with you, I will always be there for you. She's determined to break up with you; she must have found a better match."
Without making a sound, she unbuttoned her clothes, revealing her ample bosom beneath, eager to prove her charm to her rival.
"Tingxi."
"Get out of my way!" Li Tingxi suddenly flew into a rage, hoisted Su Youling onto his shoulder, and ruthlessly pushed aside the flustered Lin Lexi as he headed towards the bedroom.
"Tingxi!" Lin Lexi was extremely aggrieved, and her eyes turned red with anger.
Is Li Tingxi really that attached to Shen Xiyue's body?
I've been sleeping in this for three years and I still don't get tired of it!
It must be because he hasn't tasted his own pleasure yet, otherwise why would he even glance at Shen Xiyue, that slut?
The battle on the sofa was getting increasingly heated.
Lin Lexi was unwilling to give up and wanted to chase after him, but she was turned away. Tears welled up in her eyes and she felt so angry that she wanted to glare through the thick door.
On the familiar big bed.
The man's delicate kisses landed on her cheeks and neck, leaving streaks of blood with almost biting force.
"Li Tingxi, please wake up." The intense humiliation made Su Youling's eyes redden.
He actually tore her clothes in front of his new lover, shattering her dignity and trampling on her heartlessly like a prostitute.
In her despair, Su Youling suddenly felt a dull pain in her abdomen. Thinking of the fragile child in her womb, she didn't know where the strength came from, but she pushed the person away violently and roared through her teary eyes, "Get out!"
Li Tingxi had never seen her cry like this before. Like a lost little animal in the rainy night, panicked and desperate, she raised all her thorns to isolate herself from the world.
What did he do?
Su Youling was nothing more than a bed warmer he used to replace Shen Xiyue. How could he be worthy of setting aside his pride to force such a woman?
He's insane!
The angrier Li Tingxi got at himself for losing control in front of Su Youling, the more venomous his words became: "I'm tired of sleeping with you after all these years, why are you still pretending to be a chaste and virtuous woman? And for whom have you remained chaste?"
"Li Tingxi, you've gone too far!" Su Youling felt a sharp pain in her heart. "You're thinking about Shen Xiyue, you're with Lin Lexi by your side, and you even treat me like a prostitute, humiliating and trampling on me. What do you take women for? I've never been your possession!"
She pursed her lips in embarrassment, stormed out of the door, and said, "From now on, I don't want anything to do with you anymore."
"Stop!" Li Tingxi took a step and subconsciously wanted to chase after her, but as soon as he stepped out, Lin Lexi, who was standing guard to the side, grabbed his arm. "Tingxi, don't scare me. If Director Shen doesn't want to serve you, I'll make you happy. Although I'm not as good at pleasing men as she is, I can learn."
She described herself as innocent and pure, with a pitiful look in her eyes, and her small hand reached into Li Tingxi's shirt, trying to arouse the man's pity.
