Chapter 3 How could she possibly be pregnant?

After getting off work and returning home, Su Youling quickly packed her luggage.

Before she even stepped out the door, she was caught red-handed by Li Tingxi, whose face was ashen. "Su Youling, you took the money and the house and ran away. Who gave you the guts!"

Su Youling looked up and stared directly at him, her eyes devoid of their usual gentleness. "The property certificate and gold card are still in the bedside table in the bedroom. According to the agreement, you will pay to take care of my mother, and I will play the role of Shen Xiyue. Now the transaction is over, and I will not take a single penny with me."

Li Tingxi's face grew increasingly gloomy. He kicked her suitcase aside and slammed her against the entrance. "You're just using this as an excuse to make more money, aren't you? If you're so high and mighty, how could you have shamelessly stripped naked and climbed into my bed back then?"

Su Youling's expression trembled as she listened to his humiliating words, and she bit her lip in self-mockery.

She was drugged by Shen's father and sent to Li Tingxi's bed, but no one was willing to listen to her explanation.

He was furious when he woke up, both resentful of being abandoned by his white moonlight and angry at being schemed against by the entire Su family. Although he was forced to marry her for the sake of the bigger picture, he still looked down on her from the bottom of his heart.

Su Youling's lower abdomen started to ache again, and she pushed his strong body away with all her might. "Li Tingxi, you broke the agreement first, can't we just part ways amicably?"

"Didn't Lin Lexi apologize to you? What are you still making a scene for!" Li Tingxi originally thought that Su Youling was just using this as an excuse to throw a tantrum, but he didn't expect that his compromise would only result in her becoming more arrogant. His expression grew colder and colder. "What do you want? Or is the Shen family plotting something again? Just say it."

The Shen family was originally just a second-rate, insignificant wealthy family. They only managed to join the ranks of the powerful and wealthy by using Shen Xiyue to climb up to him.

Later, Shen Xiyue betrayed him, and the Shen family found a substitute, Su Youling, who ruthlessly got into his bed.

If Su Youling hadn't wanted to, she wouldn't have colluded with the Shen family in the first place, and she certainly wouldn't have let him manipulate her all these years.

She's now making a fuss about divorce because the agreement is about to expire, and she thinks she has leverage over his infidelity, so she wants to take the opportunity to make demands.

The man's sinister expression, accompanied by a powerful, oppressive aura, swept over Su Youling.

The tension was palpable, and a sense of desolation welled up within me.

Whether in bed or out of bed, Li Tingxi's deep affection was for Shen Xiyue. In his heart, Su Youling was nothing more than a plaything sold for money, utterly despicable.

She repeatedly warned herself to guard her heart and not to succumb to the illusion of a man's tenderness, otherwise today's humiliation would surely cause her excruciating pain!

"Whether the Shen family lives or dies is none of my business." Su Youling raised her eyes. "Li Tingxi, after sleeping with Lin Lexi last night, you came back to sleep with me. Are you treating me like a prostitute?"

A flash of humiliation crossed her eyes. "My mother was persecuted by a scumbag and was cursed as a prostitute for half her life. I will never repeat her mistakes."

The vast Li Mansion was plunged into a suffocating silence. The two breathed almost touching, yet their hearts were worlds apart.

It wasn't until the moving truck came to a sudden stop in front of the Li Mansion and the driver announced the employer's name in a loud voice that Li Tingxi was stunned and looked at Su Youling in disbelief.

The moving truck arrived so quickly; she really couldn't wait to leave the Li Mansion!

Just because of Lin Lexi?

Li Tingxi closed his eyes briefly, softening his tone as he said, "The moment you step out of this door today, your mother's exorbitant medical bills, the Shen family's wealth, and your own riches will all vanish. If you simply admit your mistake, I'll pretend nothing happened today..."

“I did nothing wrong! I gave you and your new lover a place to be together, and I didn’t linger after the divorce. I’ve already done more than enough.” Su Youling pushed him away forcefully, opened the door, and went out to ask the impatient driver to wait a moment.

Just as she was about to turn around to get her luggage, Li Tingxi slammed the door shut, his eyes blazing as he glared down at her. "Su Youling, if it weren't for this face, I would have sent you and the Shen family to hell back then! Even without you, there's still Qianqian..."

"With countless gentle and obedient replacements, do you really think I can't bear to part with you?"

That's right!

He was just used to Su Youling's intelligence and obedience; it wasn't that he couldn't live without her.

This is absolutely not something Su Youling and the Shen family can use to control him!

The anger in Li Tingxi's eyes gradually subsided, replaced by a cold indifference. "I hate disobedient women. If you want to leave, then leave! According to the agreement, the one-month period hasn't ended yet. The external marketing of untying the emotional ties and the handover of work will both take time."

Since Su Youling has become so rebellious and disobedient, his patience is limited, and there is no need to lower himself to continue entangled with her. "You still live at home, do your job well, and teach Lin Lexi well before you leave. She will take over the position of design director."

"good."

Lin Lexi is a new designer. It's impossible for her to take over as director in just one month based on her abilities alone. It seems that Li Tingxi spoils his new stand-in to the core.

However, these are not issues she needs to consider.

Su Youling pursed her lips. "We're in the divorce settlement period, so let's sleep in separate rooms for this month."

Seeing her eagerness to draw a line, Li Tingxi's suppressed anger almost burst forth again. "Without this face, I wouldn't even glance at you. Don't flatter yourself."

Just as the atmosphere was becoming increasingly tense, Lin Lexi called.

He deliberately answered the call in front of Su Youling and said a few words of coaxing, but she only cared about picking up her scattered luggage and didn't seem to care at all. He was so angry that he slammed the door and left.

The sound of the door slamming was deafening.

Su Youling closed her eyes and breathed a sigh of relief; she was free!

I'll never have to be someone's heartless plaything again.

Just as she was feeling happy, she suddenly experienced a sharp, cramping pain in her lower abdomen, which nearly made her faint. She had to rush to the hospital for a checkup.

I thought it was just food poisoning, but the doctor ordered blood tests and an ultrasound, which was quite a hassle.

After a long while, the nurse took her to the obstetrics and gynecology department.

"You're pregnant, but the baby is only six weeks along. The pregnancy is unstable, and there are signs of miscarriage." Looking at her suddenly pale face, and seeing that she had come alone at night, the doctor understood. "Do you want to keep the baby?"

A devastating shock!

They had a prior agreement, and they always took precautions and used medication, so how could she possibly get pregnant?

Su Youling was stunned for a moment, then suddenly jolted awake, "No!"

She was finally about to escape this prison-like marriage...

This child shouldn't have come.

Li Tingxi would absolutely not allow her to give birth to a member of the Li family!

The doctor sighed, "You have intrauterine adhesions. If you abort the child, you may never be able to conceive again. You are still young, go back and discuss it with your family."

Clutching the examination report, Su Youling left the hospital in a daze, wandering the streets like a ghost, when she suddenly bumped into a solid wall of flesh.

"What's wrong with you, sister-in-law?" A flirtatious voice rang out, and a dashing face suddenly loomed close. "Li Tingxi has a new lover in his arms, and he's kicked you out?"

Suddenly, someone grabbed her waist. Su Youling coldly dodged, abandoning her previous feigned politeness, and kicked the man hard in the abdomen.

"Li Qidong, if you're sick, go see a veterinarian. Don't embarrass yourself in the street."

The visitor was Li Tingxi's older brother and mortal enemy. Whenever Li Qidong couldn't beat Li Tingxi, he would find ways to make things difficult for her.

She used to compromise and put up with things for the greater good, but now she can finally vent her anger!

Su Youling left immediately after finishing the fight, unaware of the fleeting white light in the shadows.

Li Qidong stared at the woman's slender, defiant figure, utterly shocked. "It hurts like hell! Has this woman been possessed by a ghost and gained guts today?"

He suddenly glanced into the shadows and sneered, "I bet you won't be so arrogant for long!"
