Chapter 76 Don't Make Ideas About Su Youling

City A.

It was already daylight when the plane landed.

Shen Xiyue took medication during the latter half of the flight to barely manage to stay upright. Half of her body was leaning against Li Tingxi's chest, and she was trembling slightly from the pain.

Li Tingxi hesitated several times, but still didn't push him away.

Seeing this, many young people excitedly took photos and even gossiped quietly, their energy running high, until Li Tingxi gave them an impatient look, and they finally quieted down.

Professor Lin led a group of drowsy students to say goodbye to Li Tingxi and Shen Xiyue. At that time, Shen Xiyue was even being carried horizontally in Li Tingxi's arms and was not very awake.

Li Tingxi made a phone call, and the driver, who had already received the message, was waiting outside.

The driver was an old resident of the Li family mansion, mainly serving Li Tingxi and Shen Xiyue. He greatly admired Mrs. Li, who was gentle, tolerant, and quite capable.

Seeing him carry Shen Xiyue into the car, the driver asked worriedly, "Sir, what's wrong with Madam? Why is she so ill after just one trip out?"

Seeing the driver heading towards the Li Mansion, Li Tingxi interrupted him, "Don't go back. Drive to Qinghuan Road."

There was an expensive private hospital there, whose nominal director was Li Mufeng's cousin. Nobody knew that Li Tingxi was actually the major private shareholder of the hospital.

After the driver dropped him off at Qinghuan Road, Li Tingxi told him to leave first.

Upon receiving the news, Li Mufeng first made arrangements for everyone at the hospital to ensure that no one would see Li Tingxi bringing Shen Xiyue over. Only then did he personally come out to pick up the two and take them to the detached inpatient building through a special passage.

"I've sent away everyone who shouldn't be here. Those who remain are all trusted confidants, so you can rest assured." Li Mufeng hurriedly followed her to the ward and saw the dying Shen Xiyue. He was shocked and worried. "How could she have become so ill in just a few days?"

Shen Xiyue's body was clearly ravaged by illness for a long time, rather than simply caused by kidnapping. So Li Mufeng looked at it more and more strangely. "Li Tingxi, what exactly is going on?"

"Since you've brought everyone here, are you still going to try and hide it from me?"

Li Tingxi frowned, ignored him, and kept making phone calls, but no one answered.

Has Su Youling blocked him again? Or is she deliberately ignoring his calls? Or has something happened again?

Li Tingxi quickly called Qin He, only to learn that Su Youling had reported the case, and the police, following the clues she provided, found an underground research institute and arrested the two elders of the Shen family on the spot.

"Li Qidong tried to escape, but failed." Qin He asked, "President Li, as long as those two people from the Shen family are willing to identify Li Qidong, he definitely won't be able to escape this time."

The reason why Li Qidong was able to get out so quickly last time was twofold: firstly, someone in the upper echelons of the Li Group helped him pull strings; and secondly, the crime he committed was an economic crime, which takes a long time to gather evidence, go to trial, and convict.

If handled well, most of the time the matter will simply be dropped.

As for the so-called kidnapping case, there was actually no concrete evidence to accuse Li Qidong, this cunning guy. He cleared himself of all charges before he even started the scheme, which is why he was able to escape in the end.

But this time is different. Because of Shen Xiyue's betrayal, Li Qidong can't get rid of the scandal no matter what.

"I think Madam called the police to arrest him because she doesn't want to let Li Qidong off the hook." Qin He was worried that Li Tingxi would, like before, consider his father's feelings and let Li Qidong off easily.

Li Tingxi said coldly, "He should pay the price for the sins he committed."

He paused, then said, "Send people to protect her. Don't let anything go wrong this time! Otherwise..."

Qin He quickly assured him, "Yes, I will strengthen the manpower."

"With these arrangements, not even a fly will be able to get near the lady."

After hanging up the phone, Li Tingxi's face darkened!

Su Youling is safe and sound; not answering the phone is intentional!

He turned around and saw Li Mufeng's handsome face, which was as black as the bottom of a pot. "Li Tingxi, what's going on? This woman is not Shen Xiyue at all."

Li Mufeng pointed to Shen Xiyue's pale but unmarked cheek, where there were no stitches, clearly indicating that she was not the same person as the 'Shen Xiyue' he knew.

Before Li Tingxi could speak, Shen Xiyue slowly woke up, "Tingxi...cough cough...how is my sister?"

"Don't worry, she's fine." Li Tingxi quickly went to the bedside. After all, they were people who had been in love and cared for each other for three years. All the resentment and hatred from the past had disappeared with Shen Xiyue's serious illness.

Looking at the dying Shen Xiyue, he felt only sorrow and heartache.

Li Tingxi sat by the bed, comforting Shen Xiyue, "Don't worry about these things. I've found a suitable kidney donor, and I'll send you abroad for the transplant surgery first thing tomorrow morning."

"I...it's okay. I didn't want this life anyway." Shen Xiyue blinked slowly, like an old woman on her deathbed. Looking at Li Tingxi's worried eyes, her eyes slowly reddened. "For the past three years, I have hated myself for my cowardice back then, for selfishly abandoning you and Mom and Dad and running away, causing my sister to be innocently dragged into this."

Li Tingxi frowned slightly. "Alright, don't think about these things now. You have a long life ahead of you."

He hated betrayal more than anything in his life. The closer the person to him, the deeper the hurt. But perhaps he had vented his resentment and anger on another person all these years, so seeing Shen Xiyue like this now, he felt no emotion whatsoever.

Shen Xiyue saw his calm face, but his eyes were dull and lifeless.

He moved his lips but didn't say anything.

Li Mufeng couldn't listen anymore. He rushed to the bedside and stared at Shen Xiyue, finally realizing that the sense of familiarity came from their first meeting three years ago.

Although Shen Xiyue's appearance has changed a lot due to the illness, her words and actions are exactly the same as before.

Li Mufeng asked incredulously, "What do you mean? Li Tingxi, what's going on with her sister? Why doesn't Shen Xiyue have that scar on her face? Who exactly is the Shen Xiyue I know?"

Li Tingxi frowned. "Li Mufeng, you go out first!"

Shen Xiyue forced a smile and greeted Li Mufeng, "Mufeng, long time no see. You've matured and become more and more handsome."

"Are you really Shen Xiyue?" Li Mufeng finally understood the source of his unease when he met 'Shen Xiyue' in Chenzhou.

These two are not the same person at all.

“The person you know is my sister. It seems you like her a lot.” Shen Xiyue smiled bitterly. “I remember you only met me once back then and didn’t like me very much.”

Li Mufeng didn't know what to say. If Shen Xiyue were still healthy, he would definitely speak frankly and directly. But now…

“She’s amazing, the most amazing woman I’ve ever met,” Li Mufeng said honestly. “If it weren’t for Li Tingxi’s interference, I would have wanted to marry her and inherit her family fortune.”

Shen Xiyue's smile froze for a moment.

Upon hearing this, Li Tingxi's handsome face was filled with a storm of anger and dissatisfaction. "Li Mufeng, come out with me."

He glanced at the weakened Shen Xiyue and said, "You should rest well."

Before Shen Xiyue could return, Li Tingxi dragged the reluctant Li Mufeng to the stairwell, slammed him against the wall, and warned him with a grim expression, "Li Mufeng, don't you dare lay a finger on Su Youling! How many times do I have to warn you!"
