Chapter 239 Unable to Leave

Under Li Mufeng's care, Su Youling's health has almost fully recovered, and the baby in her womb is also in good condition.

Li Mufeng and Wei Ning had already planned out their escape route, and they decided to proceed as planned today.

This was the best opportunity, because Li Tingxi had gone to a neighboring city early in the morning to discuss an important cooperation. Su Youling had specifically sounded out Qin He that he probably wouldn't be back until evening.

Li Mufeng was responsible for secretly taking Su Youling away from the hospital, while Wei Ning helped pick up Su Hong. They met at the airport at the appointed time.

The plan went even more smoothly than expected, and Li Tingxi, in his cleverness, added several more bodyguards outside the ward.

However, the fatal flaw is that these people know how important Su Youling is to Li Tingxi, and they dare not get too close to her for fear of offending her.

Li Mufeng then dressed up as a doctor and made his rounds as before, accompanied by a "nurse" who was the same size as Su Youling and even had a similar demeanor and temperament.

As soon as the ward door closed, Su Youling went to the bathroom with the "nurse" to change her clothes. When she came out, she was wearing a mask and followed Li Mufeng with her head down.

The dozen or so bodyguards didn't notice anything amiss. Even though they were standing outside the door to check on "Su Youling" in the ward as instructed by Li Tingxi, they could only see her lying on the bed with her back to them.

This is Su Youling's usual routine.

Su Youling followed behind Li Mufeng, not daring to breathe loudly. Only after they successfully left the hospital did she realize that she was covered in a cold sweat.

The two got into the car and immediately headed to the airport.

Breathing in the fresh air outside the window, Su Youling even felt as if her previous experience in the hospital was a depressing nightmare, and now she had finally come back to life.

She could never go back.

It wasn't until she stood on the floor of the airport terminal that Su Youling felt a sense of reality; she was about to be free!

However, as time went by and their takeoff time drew closer, Wei Ning and Su Hong were nowhere to be seen.

Su Youling felt a little uneasy and urged Li Mufeng to call Wei Ning. The busy signal on the other end of the line made the two of them realize that something was wrong.

"Has something happened?" Su Youling was somewhat at a loss, because her longing for freedom made her even more afraid of something going wrong.

She couldn't help but grab Li Mufeng's arm, her heart pounding with anxiety: "Do you have any way to locate where they are right now?"

Seeing that she didn't look well, Li Mufeng tried his best to appear calm and composed to reassure her, "I'll check the location right away, everything will be fine, we should be there soon."

Fifteen minutes later, Wei Ning finally called.

Su Youling immediately snatched the phone from Li Mufeng's hand and pressed the answer button. The next second, she heard Wei Ning's hoarse voice say, "Su Youling, we can't leave now. Something has happened to us. Auntie has had a seizure and is unconscious. We are on our way to the hospital now."

Su Youling's face drained of color instantly, and her voice involuntarily broke into a sob as she asked, "Is my mother seriously injured? Are you injured too? What happened? Which hospital are you at?"

What a coincidence! The moment she planned to escape, Su Hong got into trouble. Didn't Li Tingxi arrange for people to protect her? Or is this all just a coincidence?

Did he have someone do it?

Before Wei Ning could reply, as if to confirm her thoughts, a sharp shout from Li Tingxi suddenly came from not far away: "Su Youling, you actually dare to run away!"

Su Youling's hand gripping the phone tightened unconsciously until it turned white.

Li Mufeng gave a bitter smile, as if he had lost his parents, "Now we really can't leave."

As they were talking, Li Tingxi rushed over with a group of bodyguards, and Li Mufeng was held up by two bodyguards on either side.

Li Tingxi glared at him coldly, "You really are my good brother."

After saying that, he glanced at the bodyguard and said, "Put him in the car first."

After Li Mufeng was taken away, Li Tingxi looked at Su Youling, who was staring at him expressionlessly. His eyes were filled with anger. He walked up to her, grabbed her chin, and forced her to look up at him.

"Su Youling, you're really something! You've been planning this for a long time, haven't you?"

"So what if it is? Li Tingxi, didn't you force me to do this?" Su Youling frowned in disgust, her reddened eyes filled with growing hatred.

She refused to back down, grabbing Li Tingxi's hand that was holding her chin with both hands, her fingertips tightening. "You know perfectly well what you've done. Didn't you anticipate that I would run away, which is why you had people spying on Wei Ning?"

"Li Tingxi, how could you be so despicable? I have no feelings for you other than hatred now, so why won't you let me go? Why are you hurting the people around me to coerce me? Killing my child wasn't enough, do you have to make me give you my life too?"

Su Youling became increasingly agitated as she spoke, her fingertips digging so hard that they drew blood from Li Tingxi's hand.

Li Tingxi, however, seemed oblivious to the pain, almost obsessively pulling her into his arms, so tightly it was as if she would vanish the moment he let go: "Su Su, don't you know it's because I love you? I know I was wrong, and I will do my best to make it up to you from now on, so why do you insist on running away?"

Su Youling punched him frantically, "Li Tingxi, don't say you love me. It disgusts me to hear that word come out of your mouth. Because you knew I was going to run away, you tried every means to harm the person I care about? Is this how you love me?"

Li Tingxi pulled her face away from his embrace, looked deeply into her eyes, and said with a stubborn and obstinate tone, "As long as you stay obediently by my side and don't even think about running away, I will treat the people you care about well. But if you insist on leaving me..."

He narrowed his eyes, gently stroking Su Youling's cheek with his palm, but his tone was frighteningly cold, "I don't mind using some special methods."

Su Youling was startled, and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.

Li Tingxi frowned, wiping away her tears while softening his tone to coax her: "So listen to me, come back to the Li Mansion with me. Except for leaving me, I will do my best to fulfill all your other requests."

Su Youling's eyelashes trembled. She closed her eyes and remained silent for a moment. When she opened her eyes again, they were filled with indifference: "You'd better keep your word."

What other choice did she have but to agree? Everyone she cared about was under his control. She was like a kite held by Li Tingxi. As long as he wanted, she would always be at his mercy.

Su Youling couldn't help but glance at the sky, as if she were looking at the freedom she was about to lose.
