Chapter 164 Apology for Arrogance

"Su Youling, stop making baseless accusations. I was drunk last night, but I didn't pass out. I didn't do anything to you. Li Tingxi just barged in and beat me up like this." Lu Han was already seething with anger. He had been beaten half to death by Li Tingxi at the Yin family home and humiliated by Shi Yan and Old Master Yin.

Before things had calmed down at the hospital, his uncle came over aggressively with a group of people, kicking and slapping him while berating him for being useless.

What's infuriating is that he hadn't even finished undressing Su Youling when he was treated like a rapist, leaving him angry, resentful, and unwilling to accept it.

"I haven't even asked you for medical expenses yet, and my uncle has already brought me here in person to apologize. Don't push your luck. If it weren't for Grandpa Yin's sake, who would even bother with you?" Lu Han said through gritted teeth. "You're the one who got drugged and are now shamelessly clinging to me. Who can you blame?"

After listening to him finish speaking, Mr. Lu calmly and slowly shouted, "Lu Han, shut up! You were in the wrong first, what are you still arguing about?"

Su Youling gave him a cold look.

If you really want to stop Lu Han, why wait until he finishes cursing before you speak?

These two are probably working together to give her a warning!

"Have you said enough?" Li Tingxi suddenly stood up, pulled Su Youling behind him, and kicked Lu Han's wheelchair hard, his face cold and stern.

"Lu Han, how dare you insult my wife?"

"You! Li Tingxi!" Lu Han, who was already in a wheelchair and in great pain, was kicked by Li Tingxi and crashed into the wall with his wheelchair, then fell to the ground several times, looking extremely disheveled.

The caregiver was still standing guard outside the door. Hearing the noise, she didn't dare to open the door and come in easily. She could only ask in a low voice, "Young Master Lu, are you alright?"

"Get in here right now!" Lu Han lay sprawled on the ground in a disheveled state, while Li Tingxi looked down at him with an air of superiority, making him feel even more ashamed and angry, as if he were forever inferior to this man.

He originally thought Su Youling was a man.

He could have just casually played with a prostitute to vent his anger, but he never expected that this person would actually be Li Tingxi's wife. This couple changed their names and identities and stirred up trouble in B City, making everyone look foolish.

He got angrier and angrier the more he thought about it!

The caregiver rushed in and helped Lu Han sit up. She pushed the wheelchair to Lu's father's side, hesitated, and glanced at Li Tingxi, who looked like a demon, with some fear.

"You can go out now." Mr. Lu waved his hand, dismissing the caregiver, and stood up to walk towards Li Tingxi, as if he had just realized his identity. "So, the person accompanying President Su is actually the famous President Li of City A..."

He glanced at Su Youling, feigning ignorance, "I heard that President Li's wife is the eldest daughter of the Shen family, so who is this President Su...?"

Su Youling frowned.

Lu Han already knew about their relationship last night. Isn't Lu's father just asking a question he already knows the answer to?

Or was he testing something?

More and more people seemed to be beginning to doubt her and Shen Xiyue's identities, which made Su Youling feel annoyed and helpless, wishing she could get out of this vortex of the wealthy family as soon as possible.

“From beginning to end, I have only had this one wife.” Li Tingxi put his arm around Su Youling’s shoulder, without mentioning Shen Xiyue’s name. “Su Su wanted to keep a low profile in managing Yitao. I just wanted to make my wife happy. I just didn’t expect that B City was full of filth and dirty things, which offended her eyes.”

His blatant and scathing rebuke made Mr. Lu's face turn somewhat unpleasant.

Although Li Tingxi's influence extends to City A, few in the business world are unafraid of the Li family; otherwise, Zhao Fu wouldn't have relied on the Li family's influence.

The powerful have been stirring up trouble here for so long.

Although Lu's business chain and Li's had not had much interaction before, and he had never met Li Tingxi, the young man gave him a sense of pressure from the first meeting.

Did this couple really come to City B under pseudonyms just for the sake of pottery culture?

What is the relationship between Su Youling and the old man of the Yin family?

If Li Tingxi and Old Master Yin join forces, it's not impossible for them to merge and annex the major powers in cities A and B, and redistribute the power of the elite families.

"Mr. Li is right to scold me. My brother's son is indeed a disappointment. He spends all his time racing cars, going to bars, and playing with women. He has no manners and has even offended Mrs. Li. It is the Lu family's fault for not raising him properly." Having witnessed Li Tingxi's protection and doting on Su Youling, Mr. Lu finally lowered his noble head, bowed to Su Youling, and sincerely apologized.

Looking at these hypocritical faces, Su Youling suddenly felt utterly bored. "President Lu, I've apologized and accepted the gift. Let's just let the matter of Lu Han go."

She didn't want to cause any more trouble for the Li family and the Yin family.

Last night, Li Tingxi gave Lu Han a good beating, and she suffered a lot. She has finally gotten her revenge.

Unexpectedly, she was so easy to deal with. Mr. Lu was somewhat surprised and instead looked at Su Youling with higher regard, saying, "As expected of Mrs. Li, she has a broad mind."

"Mr. Lu, you flatter me." Su Youling glanced at Lu Han and said calmly, "I was indeed drugged last night. Although Grandpa Yin determined that Lu Han didn't administer the drug, the mastermind behind it all is..."

She paused deliberately. There was no flaw on the faces of Lu's father and Lu Han. They seemed to have no clue who had drugged them. They were too calm.

"The person who drugged me is the culprit, and I will definitely find out." Su Youling said calmly. Mr. Lu smiled and said, "Of course."

#Please do not use incognito mode whenever verification is required!

Anyone who dares to run wild and poison the Yin family will not have a good end.

He apologized and then prepared to leave with Lu Han.

Before leaving, Lu Han suddenly turned around and gave Su Youling a sinister look.

His sticky, disgusting gaze swept over Su Youling's face, finally settling on the faint hickey on her collarbone. His body heated up, and the burning heat in his eyes intensified.

Su Youling frowned in disgust.

That person's gaze was disgusting, as if he had stripped her naked in public.

Li Tingxi also noticed this scene and was about to step forward with a cold face, but Su Youling stopped him.

"Forget it, Yitao needs to develop, we can't afford to have too much of a falling out with the Lu family." Su Youling told her secretary to see the guest out, not wanting to waste any more time on such trash.

The door closed, blocking Lu Han's disgusting gaze.

Li Tingxi, his face cold, pinched Su Youling's cheek and gave it a nasty tug. "My woman doesn't need to suffer like this. I wish I could gouge his eyes out..."

"And then what? Soak you in liquor, or make me tea?" Su Youling felt disgusted just thinking about it. "Don't try to annoy me. I'll stay far away from people like that in the future. If Lu Chennuan wasn't the one who drugged me, I don't want to have anything to do with the Lu family."

The Lu family holds an extraordinary position in B City; otherwise, Lu's father wouldn't have been so arrogant at the beginning. It's likely that no one could have kept him in check except for Old Master Yin himself.

Li Tingxi's eyes flickered, and he lowered his head to peck Su Youling's lips. "Su Su, are you thinking of me?"

Su Youling gave him an awkward glare. "When are you going back to City A?"

"You want to kick me out?" Li Tingxi's handsome face immediately fell again.
