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 287 Itching for a beating
The project in City C was stabilizing, and he should have ended his business trip and returned to City A long ago. However, he was displeased by Karina's interference in the pottery culture project, and there was also the issue of Lele's health...
And the lovely Yueyue, and that familiar figure that appears again and again...
He stayed here because he wanted to find Su Youling!
But after all this time, the clues seem to have gone cold again.
Everything was like a series of delusional fantasies he had in the dead of night; when he woke up, all the illusions were shattered.
Ultimately, we must return to reality.
Although I was extremely anxious, there were no direct flights to City A at midnight, and other modes of transportation took too long, so I decided to wait for a flight early tomorrow morning to go back.
Hearing his boss's hoarse and weak voice on the phone, Qin He knew he had been working late again. "President Li, I've booked a flight for tomorrow morning. Please get some rest for a few hours. If you keep going like this, your body won't be able to take it."
“I know what I’m doing.” Li Tingxi pinched the bridge of his nose, leaned back on the sofa, and pondered for a moment with a cold face. “Contact Li Mufeng and have him find a way to get in touch with the top three hackers on the international hacker rankings. No matter how much money it costs, as long as they can catch the hacker who attacked the Li family, the reward will be doubled!”
Judging from his tone, President Li is truly furious!
Qin He nodded quickly, "I'll arrange it right away."
Since Su Youling left, Li Tingxi's methods have become increasingly ruthless and merciless. He leaves no room for maneuver in his actions, and many powerful figures have met their demise at his hands. Gradually, people in the industry have become afraid to provoke him.
Who on earth dared to provoke us this time?
They're probably courting death!
...
at the same time.
Su Youling was intently watching her eldest child operate the keyboard. Looking at the dazzling computer interface, she couldn't help but marvel, "My child is truly a genius."
"Mommy, don't get too excited. A top-tier company like Li's doesn't just employ idle people." Yangyang, with a cool little face that looked exactly like Li Tingxi's, methodically manipulated the chaotic and complex code on the computer.
If it were an ordinary technical talent, they would have been routed long ago with such a strong offensive. The Li family's technical department is still quite capable.
This ignited the little guy's fighting spirit, and he began to take this little game seriously, considering it a small gift for Li Tingxi.
Su Youling said confidently, "Mommy believes in you. A genius's potential is limitless."
Wen Xi pushed the door open and came in. Hearing this, she laughed and said, "His destructive power is also limitless. Back then, Li Mufeng was known in the industry as the God of Death, but I never expected that he would teach his apprentice to starve his master to death."
“Our Yangyang has extraordinary talent in this area. At the age of four, he broke Li Mufeng’s record of defending his title on the international hacker rankings and became the youngest invisible hacker master today.”
Thinking back to how the little guy had single-handedly broken Li Mufeng's record and successfully cracked the network security firewall that Li Mufeng had set up for the family company, thus giving his master a hard time, Su Youling didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"If you hadn't wanted the little guy to show off his talents, and if Li Mufeng hadn't been tricked by the little guy into going back to inherit the family business, the top hacker on the leaderboard would be our Yangyang now, or at the very least Li Mufeng. How could those ignorant guys have the right to swagger around like that!" Wen Xi said regretfully.
Just as I finished speaking, the computer screen suddenly flickered and went black for a moment.
Su Youling was just confident
#Please do not use incognito mode whenever verification is required!
Manman, seeing this, couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Yangyang, what's wrong? Did Li Tingxi hire some kind of expert?"
Yangyang frowned and shook his head. "It's nothing. It's just those guys showing off their skills for no reason. They've been itching for a beating since we taught them a lesson."
Su Youling "..."
Who did he take after to get that condescending tone from, like an old father lecturing an unfilial son?
"Who could easily make Yangyang's computer screen go black? Could Li Tingxi have hired Li Mufeng?" Wen Xi quickly pulled out her phone, about to make a call.
Speak of the devil and he shall appear.
Li Mufeng called Su Youling, his tone extremely urgent: "Was it Yangyang who hacked into the Li family's internal network?"
"So it really was you who found them?" Su Youling didn't deny it. "You and Li Tingxi's brotherhood is back to normal?"
Although she didn't want to know anything about Li Tingxi for the past five years, Li Mufeng was, after all, her benefactor. That guy had extraordinary connections, so it was impossible to hide anything from him. In the end, Hai even became Yangyang's teacher.
In recent years, although Li Mufeng has not deliberately mentioned it, he occasionally regrets that he and Li Tingxi are not on the same wavelength and have less contact.
Especially during the period immediately following her faked death, Li Tingxi kept people watching Li Mufeng, trying to find any clues from him, which caused many conflicts between the two.
"What do you mean by 'reconciled as before'? We didn't just break up like that." Li Mufeng's tone was still light. "I don't know what's wrong with him lately, it seems like his knot in his heart has loosened? Our relationship has improved a lot... Did you two run into each other?"
Su Youling's forehead went numb. "No."
"That's strange. Has he found a new source of emotional support?" Li Mufeng suddenly went berserk after receiving some news. "Three top-tier professionals couldn't beat a little brat, and his computer was repeatedly humiliated by a hundred viruses. What's the use of you guys? You might as well commit mass suicide!"
"You won?" Su Youling's eyes lit up. She turned her head and saw Yangyang's sharp eyebrows and eyes, which were filled with a confident arc, as if he was looking down on his opponents as a bunch of elementary school kids.
"A piece of cake." At the same time, Yangyang calmly reviewed the internal personnel information.
Karina joined Li's Group four years ago. She was initially told to start as a junior manager, but in less than a year, her position rose rapidly, faster than a rocket could have done.
It seems the rumors were true.
At least Li Tingxi did give her enough preferential treatment.
Thinking of this, Yangyang snorted calmly and bypassed the company's intranet to hack into Li Tingxi's personal account.
Coincidentally, he was still online so late.
It seems they received a report from headquarters and have been closely monitoring the hacking incident at headquarters.
Yangyang's fingertips twitched, and seeing that Su Youling and Li Mufeng were chatting about other work, she said sensibly, "Mommy, this is about enough trouble. I checked the flights, and that person should be leaving C City first thing tomorrow morning."
Su Youling glanced at the time, then bent down and kissed the little guy on the head. "Good boy, you're great! Go to sleep early, we're leaving now."
Yangyang's face was covered in saliva, but he pursed his lips without making a sound and nodded, "Okay."
"Guru, give me a kiss too." Wenxi was envious and was about to lean over for a kiss and a hug, but Yangyang politely refused, "It's 1:30 in the morning, guru, go get your beauty sleep."
After saying that, he closed his laptop, yawned, and went back to his room to sleep with a cold expression.
