Chapter 386 Almost Killed

"You! Who do you think you are, daring to speak to me like that?" Old Master Li gripped his cane tightly, wishing he could slap her hard, completely losing his previous arrogant demeanor.

He seems to be really angry, and he doesn't even care about his dignity and self-respect, which he has always valued.

Su Youling's arm was injured, and she had only managed to hold on until now thanks to sheer willpower. With the old man's struggle, she was almost knocked to the ground.

Qin He quickly stepped forward to help him up, and stood firm with the old man, saying, "If you hit him again, we'll call the police."

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.

Everyone stared intently at him, some questioning, others wary and defensive.

The more arrogant the old man was just now, the angrier and more embarrassed he is now.

"If anything happens to Tingxi, I will absolutely not let this go." Old Master Li took a few deep breaths, glared at Su Youling and the others, and stormed off with his bodyguards.

"Chairman Li!" Karina was all alone and powerless, and could not amount to much. She hesitated for a moment, glanced at the operating room, and then followed in Old Master Li's footsteps.

"Chairman Li, are we just leaving like this?" She chased after him into the elevator, still somewhat unwilling. "Tingxi's condition is so dangerous right now. Leaving Rebecca alone to guard him is risky; what if something unexpected happens..."

Snap!

Suddenly, Old Master Li slapped her across the face without any expression. "At this point, what could be more shameful than tonight?"

"Mr. Li, I don't know what I did wrong again?" Karina covered her face, somewhat stunned by the slap, and asked aggrievedly, "It was Rebecca who made you angry, why are you taking it out on me?"

"I'm taking my anger out on you?" Old Master Li looked at her coldly. "I've carefully supported you for so many years, is it because I needed someone to vent my anger on?"

"No wonder you can't beat Rebecca. With your limited vision and intelligence, you're not even a hair on her head. That's why that woman has had Li Tingxi firmly under her thumb in just a few dozen days, and has quietly taken control of all his assets."

"And you, you've worked so hard to stay by his side for four years, and you haven't gotten anything in return. You're just causing me trouble all the time and making me lose face! Don't you deserve this slap?"

These words were like knives, each one piercing Karina's very core, leaving her bleeding profusely yet speechless.

She devoted so many years of her youth and blood to Li Tingxi, but it couldn't compare to that bitch Rebecca's short few dozen days. Was she really that useless?

But what else does that woman have besides a face that looks like Su Youling?

Li Tingxi is completely bewitched!

“Tingxi is completely infatuated with her, and there’s nothing I can do…” Faced with the aggressive old man, Karina habitually feigned weakness, “Chairman Li, I am very grateful for your guidance over the years and would like to do something for you, but I am truly insignificant and powerless…”

"Who said that?" Old Master Li calmed down and coldly sized up Karina, as if he were looking at an obedient yet ambitious animal. "If you really want to turn the tide, I can help you."

Karina looked up abruptly, her eyes lighting up instantly.

...

The operating room lights stayed on for several more hours.

Su Youling was so numb from waiting that she completely lost track of time until Wen Xi's anxious footsteps sounded.

She hadn't reacted yet.

Then someone hugged me tightly.

"Su Youling, are you trying to kill me? Such a big thing happened, and you didn't even tell me?" Wen Xi hugged her, scolding her more fiercely, but moving more carefully, afraid of touching any wounds she couldn't see. Her tears flowed more sadly than the patient's own. "I only missed watching for a second, how did you end up like this?"

"I'm fine, Li Tingxi saved me." Su Youling patted Wen Xi's shoulder with one hand, only to find her voice was hoarse when she opened her mouth. "Why did you come here so late?"

"You still have the nerve to say that!" Wen Xi took the tissue Qin He silently handed her, wiped away her tears and snot, and said without any regard for her image, "When your plane was supposed to arrive in Atlanta, the kids couldn't pick you up and couldn't get through to you on the phone, so they called me."

“I thought you were delayed because you were with Li Tingxi, but then I saw the report online. Even though the video was blurred, I still recognized you at a glance.” She thought about the few words in the report and felt a connection.

That's a rooftop with more than 30 floors!

Without Li Tingxi, it's unimaginable what a terrifying Su Youling would look like now, and how the children would accept it.

"The children already know?" Su Youling frowned, annoyed that she had forgotten such an important matter.

The kids must be very worried because they couldn't pick her up at the airport or contact her.

Yangyang has never been one to sit idly by and wait for death. Since Wenxi could see the domestic reports, the little guy must have seen them long ago as well. He might have even hacked into the hotel's surveillance cameras and seen the scene of her and Li Tingxi getting into the ambulance clearly.

"Quick, lend me your phone." Su Youling took Wenxi's phone to call the kids, explaining, "I left my phone at the airport hotel and haven't had time to get it back yet."

She called, and the other end answered immediately.

"Mommy!" The first thing that came through the phone was Yueyue's heartbreaking sobs. "In Yangyang's drawing, we all saw that you and Uncle Shuai were injured and bleeding a lot..."

The painting she mentioned should be Yangyang's surveillance footage.

The little guy did indeed hack into the hotel's security cameras.

"Yueyue, Mommy is fine, and Li Tingxi will be fine too. Don't cry, give the phone to Grandma, okay?" Su Youling comforted her for a while before the phone was handed to Su Hong.

At this time, she must have personally led the children to pick them up at the airport and waited for a long time.

Not only did they not see their daughter again, but they also received devastating news.

Hearing Su Hong's choked voice, Su Youling felt even more guilty. "Mom, I'm sorry. I was in such a hurry that I forgot to call you. Don't worry, I'm fine here, nothing serious. Please don't worry."

"You child, this is such a big deal! You were almost killed, and you're still lying to me..." Su Hong said angrily, "We've already booked the tickets, and we're about to take off. You should stay in the hospital and not cause any trouble or run around. Be careful that those people come back and want to kill you again!"

As she spoke, she burst into tears again, "I was terrified when I saw the news. You almost lost your life in such a tall building."

"Mom, I'm calling you now, aren't I?" Su Youling was naturally still shaken. The thought of almost not seeing her beloved family members again made her feel incredibly scared.

The more she cherished the present, the more worried she became about Li Tingxi's safety.

Without him, she would have died long ago.
