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 338 Parent-Child Activity Meeting
Yangyang glanced at Su Youling, got up and sat down next to Yueyue, and said in a serious tone, "You can finish these things in advance as a farewell gift. True friends will understand you."
Yueyue blinked. "Really?"
Before Yangyang could speak, Xingxing nodded and excitedly showed off her phone watch, saying, "Good friends should understand each other, just like the three of us siblings. Before we leave, we can exchange contact information, and when we get to Atlanta, we can communicate with them and share with each other."
Yueyue thought about it and realized that although it was hard not to see each other, it wouldn't be so sad if she could avoid losing new friends.
"Okay then, I'll hurry up and make farewell gifts, try to make sure everyone likes them, and then we can exchange contact information so we can still be good friends." After saying that, Yueyue jumped up and kissed Su Youling, then excitedly pulled Xingxing and rushed towards the art studio, "You help me make them."
Xingxing glanced back at Yangyang, who remained unmoved, and wailed, "Why didn't you let Yangyang help you? I'm not interested in drawing or painting at all. I'm watching the martial arts tournament tonight!"
“You’ll have plenty of time to look around when we get back to Atlanta,” Yueyue muttered to herself, thinking she was just complaining. “Yangyang’s dolls are so ugly, they’ll scare my best friend.”
Yangyang, with his very pointed ears, was speechless.
Those dolls are clearly childish.
Su Youling watched the two little ones leave excitedly and rubbed her forehead in frustration.
I haven't agreed to let them go back to kindergarten yet!
Does this naturally lead to a consensus?
"Mommy, don't worry." Seeing her worry, Yangyang assured her, "I will keep an eye on Yueyue and Xingxing and make sure they don't run around."
Thinking of the children's excited expressions, Su Youling sighed, "Never mind, as long as you're happy."
"Mommy, your mouth..." Yangyang suddenly tilted his head and leaned closer to examine her, asking with a mixture of frustration and worry.

Why does it look swollen? Is it because I have a sore throat? And this red patch on my neck, did something bite it?
puff!
Su Youling was about to drink water when she heard this and almost spat it all out.
"Cough cough... It's nothing, I guess I'm just a little feverish." Su Youling pursed her lips guiltily, stood up and said in a flustered manner, "You know, I get anxious and stressed every time Yueyue gets sick."
Yangyang raised an eyebrow, sensing that something was off about his mother. "Mommy, that person didn't bully you, did they?"
"He dares!" Su Youling subconsciously raised her voice.
Meeting her son's scrutinizing gaze, although the little guy was still too young to understand the unspoken things between adults.
But the images of the bathroom that could be censored kept flashing through her mind, and her cheeks flushed unnaturally. "Don't worry, Mommy's fine. I need to take care of some work matters in the next few days. Please take good care of my younger brother and sister, especially make sure Yueyue takes her medicine on time."
Yangyang nodded.
Watching his mother flee in panic, the little one frowned—was Mommy really not bullied?
It seems that even after returning to Atlanta, he will still keep a close eye on Li Tingxi.
We absolutely cannot let him bully Mommy.
...
Three days later.
After being discharged from the hospital, Li Tingxi returned to the Li Mansion alone and had it thoroughly cleaned inside and out. He even arranged for fresh flowers to be delivered to him every day.
These are all types that Su Youling likes.
It was as if they were always ready to welcome her back.
Every night, Yueyue would call him, chattering about kindergarten and then reluctantly mentioning that they would soon be returning to Atlanta, asking him what kind of farewell gift he wanted.
Li Tingxi remained silent.
Even though Su Su's disguise has been exposed, she's still in a hurry to send the children away. Is she afraid he'll hurt them?
She still doesn't believe in herself?
Or is it for some other reason?
"Yueyue, you are the best gift for your uncle. There's no need to make me a special farewell gift." Li Tingxi sighed reluctantly, his emotions genuine.
Even without Susu, his affection for Yueyue was genuine.
"But once you go back to Atlanta, it will be difficult for us to see each other often. Will your mother be able to bear to leave you?"
Upon hearing this, Yueyue's mood instantly sombered. "Yueyue will also miss you and Mommy, as well as Godmother and her new friends at kindergarten. But..."
Remembering what Mommy had said about not mentioning Atlanta and the brothers to the handsome uncle, the little guy sighed, "Grandma and Atlanta's friends miss us too. Mommy is busy with work, and we can't disturb her. We have to go back first."
Thinking that she wouldn't be able to see the handsome uncle often in the future, the little girl murmured reluctantly, "I wish I could see the handsome uncle one more time before I leave. I want to see what the handsome uncle looks like after he is discharged from the hospital. Please take care of yourself while you are sick."
Li Tingxi's eyes flashed, and he calmly browsed the information on the computer about the kindergarten's recent activities, then sent a message to Qin He.
He comforted Yueyue with a few words, chatted about other things, and noticed that the little girl was becoming extra careful about privacy. It seemed that Susu had recited books to the children.

At this moment, Qin He sent a confirmation message.
Li Tingxi calmly continued the previous topic, "Yueyue, you're leaving the day after tomorrow. Your handsome uncle really wants to see you again and take you to a really delicious children's restaurant."
"Really?" Yueyue became excited instantly, but then, thinking that Su Youling might not agree, she lowered her voice, "But Mommy only allows me to call handsome uncles..."
"Is that so? Then we can't let Mommy be angry..." Li Tingxi said considerately, "How about this, the kindergarten is holding a parent-child activity tomorrow. Uncle will sponsor it so that all the kindergarten children can eat the children's meals at this restaurant..."
"What kind of parent-child activity will it be?" Yueyue asked in confusion. "The teacher didn't say."
"The teacher may have already called your mommy," Li Tingxi explained with a smile. "Parent-child activities are fun activities that parents take their children to participate in at the kindergarten, including eating, drinking, playing games, and having a lot of fun."
“Wow! I know, I’ve participated in something like this in Atlanta too, but…” Yueyue paused, then said with a hint of grievance, “We don’t have a dad, and Mommy is very busy with work, so Grandma usually accompanies us, or Ryan goes with us. The other kids even laugh at me and my brothers for not having a dad.”
Li Tingxi felt a pang of pain in his heart when he thought of that scene.
That bastard who got Su Su pregnant actually let the children suffer so much!
However, on second thought, if they hadn't separated, wouldn't I be going crazy with jealousy right now?
Let him make up for the fatherly love he owes his child in the future.
"So, would you like your uncle to come with you tomorrow?" Li Tingxi coaxed. "Don't worry, I'll show up in a way that won't make your mommy angry."
