Chapter 665 An Opportunity to Get Closer to Your Beloved

"Promoting so-called talented people? He has ulterior motives all along." Le Songming suddenly laughed in anger. "No wonder! No wonder Su Youling couldn't take that ring off once she put it on. It turns out it's that brat's fault..."

"Back then, he threw away the ring and went to chase after a beauty after saying he didn't want to be the head of the family. In the end, he didn't win her over, and then he went off to some remote corner to heal his heartbreak. He didn't come home for several years, and now that he's back for less than a year, he's already causing me trouble!"

The assistant was completely bewildered, but still asked, "Should we ask Young Master Tang to come over?"

"What's the point of bringing him here?" Le Songming sneered. "He's caused such a huge mess and gotten in my way. Do you expect me to go out of my way to create opportunities for him to get closer to his sweetheart?"

"I think Li Tingxi and Su Youling have a pretty good relationship. They're a family of five on vacation here, what business is it of his, an outsider?"

Looking at the night outside, he suddenly smiled slyly: "Doesn't Yueqing really like Su Youling and her children? There are no barriers between children. Go prepare a generous gift, and we'll go to Li Tingxi's house to apologize tomorrow."

The assistant was shocked: "Apologize?"

I never imagined that such 'human language' would come out of my own boss's mouth in my lifetime.

It's truly shocking.

"Is there a problem?" Yue Songming looked up, his cold gaze startling his assistant. "No problem, I'll go prepare right away."

...

This is the villa area.

Su Youling was still asleep, and the marks on her body were a terrible sight, like she had been bitten by a dog, with patches of blue and purple, which looked quite shocking.

Li Tingxi stood on the balcony, looking at the dim lights on the beach, while his subordinates reported: "Le Songming is the current head of the Le Zheng family, but he is a martial arts fanatic and hardly manages anything. The real person in charge is the previous head, Le Yixun."

"Seven years ago, Yue Songming was ambushed by his enemies and got into trouble on this beach. It is said that he met a woman who saved him and he inexplicably got pregnant. However, no one has ever seen what the woman looks like. All that is known is that a year later, Yue Songming suddenly had a child by his side."

"After that, he kept wandering around, looking for the woman who had saved him and then disappeared. He would come back to this island every year to stay for a period of time, also in order to find her. This year was the first time he brought his child here. Children always want their mothers. When they heard that the ring could help them find someone, they rushed out with the ring and ran over to try it on any woman they liked."

Qin He laughed as he spoke, "If you really think about it, it's because you and your wife are destined to be with that child. I've checked, and the child tried on the rings with many people on the beach. There were even people with bad intentions who tried to steal the rings and the child, but in the end, the child used a slingshot to knock them to the ground and leave them with their teeth.

"That child is extraordinary, yet he inexplicably takes a liking to you, Madam, and gets along well with your three children. It must be some kind of inexplicable connection between gifted children. That child is notoriously withdrawn and unfriendly at home, and doesn't even treat his own father well."

Li Tingxi sneered: "So, I should be grateful to that brat?"

"...That's not what I meant." Qin He suddenly asked with great interest.

"But I just heard that President Li finally entered Madam's room tonight and hasn't come out all night. If it weren't for the help of the Le family father and son, you wouldn't have succeeded so quickly, would you?"

In fact, even Li Tingxi himself didn't expect this.

Su Youling had been playing hard to get, keeping him hanging on and refusing to give him a straight answer... He knew in his heart that the problem lay with him.

Su Youling wanted to wait until he agreed to Xia Zhiying's treatment plan before considering their relationship. So, although he was provoked tonight and spoke toughly, he could never truly be tough on Su Youling. Therefore, if she really disagreed, he wouldn't force her.

Unexpectedly, in the end, she was the one who took the initiative to open the last door...

He had waited for so many years, and his excitement was so intense that he almost lost control and hurt her to death... When he saw Su Youling fall into a coma, Li Tingxi realized how excessive he had been when he was emotional, and he busied himself cleaning and applying medicine to take good care of her.

All this fuss couldn't wake Su Youling up, which shows she was really exhausted.

"Why did she suddenly agree?" Li Tingxi asked softly, not sure if he was asking himself.

"What?" Qin He didn't hear clearly, but having followed Li Tingxi for so long, he could vaguely guess some of the crux of the problem.

"President, to be honest, even we outsiders know that you two care about each other. You've been through life and death together, and overcome all sorts of dangerous challenges. Even if it's a game of disaster, you should have defeated the boss and cleared the level by now."

“Right now, you two aren’t really going to be together yet. The problem is actually in your heart.” He knew about Su Youling’s anxiety, heartache, and self-blame when she learned about Li Tingxi’s illness, but she had never mentioned it to Li Tingxi, for fear of upsetting him.

Tonight, however, presents a good opportunity.

He recounted the events following the hotel fall to Li Tingxi in detail, earnestly reminding him, "Damn it, if you don't get rid of your inner demons, you'll hurt yourself and others sooner or later. The reason Madam was able to suddenly let go and take the initiative to approach you at this time is because she probably noticed that your recent state was becoming increasingly strange."

"She wanted to put your mind at ease and didn't want you to be stimulated by external factors and cause your condition to worsen without you realizing it, so she changed her original intention and used her own way, which is also a way that you can accept, to soothe your emotions."

“Is something really wrong with me?” Li Tingxi suddenly interrupted him. “Is it that obvious? I clearly…”

"You've managed to hide it so well?" Qin He sighed. "Anyone who truly cares about you, anyone close to you, who spends time with you day after day, how could they not notice something's off? Your spirit and energy don't lie. Ever since Li Qidong burned down the old house, how long has it been since you had a good night's sleep?"

"What?"

"You might not even realize it yourself, but that's not normal insomnia. It's different from when you were under a lot of work pressure and couldn't sleep. You were consciously keeping yourself awake because you were worried that your wife and children would be in danger again when you were careless. Even when everyone thought everything had settled down, your emotions remained tense and couldn't be relieved." Qin He said calmly, "Your wife might not have noticed before because she was busy with work, but now that you're together day and night, given her sensitivity and concern for you, she probably noticed it a long time ago."

Li Tingxi was completely stunned.
