Chapter 234 Mutual Torture
Li Tingxi's pupils contracted slightly, and he was instantly filled with panic at the thought of losing her.
He tightened his grip on Su Youling's shoulders, pulling her into a sudden embrace. He said firmly, "Impossible. Once our wedding date is set, I'll immediately have someone bring your mother to your side. Su Su, everything will be alright. Trust me."
It's unlikely to get better.
Su Youling gave him a sarcastic smirk, then looked at him with a pitiful and pathetic expression. "Since you're convinced I betrayed you, why are you still insisting on wearing this green hat, Li Tingxi? Don't you think you're being shameless?"
Li Tingxi's expression froze for a moment, then he hugged her even tighter. "Go ahead and curse me, I will never let you go no matter what."
Su Youling's eyes hardened, and she tilted her head back to bite down hard on his neck, the force of which seemed to tear off a piece of his flesh.
Li Tingxi groaned and then fell silent, the veins on his forehead bulging as he endured the pain.
Su Youling tasted blood but didn't intend to let go. Instead, she became even more forceful because of the stimulation.
When Qin He entered, his eyelids twitched violently, and he turned pale with fright. "President Li!"
Su Youling then slowly pushed Li Tingxi away, coldly looking at him and asking, "Does it hurt?"
Li Tingxi looked at her deeply, shook his head, and after confirming that he could not find a trace of heartache in her eyes, he felt a bitter taste in his mouth.
Su Youling scoffed, "You really have no right to complain about the pain. After all, compared to the pain I endured in the operating room, what is your pain?"
After saying that, ignoring Li Tingxi's instantly ugly expression, she lay down expressionlessly.
Li Tingxi and Qin He quietly closed the door when they left.
As soon as the door closed, Su Youling opened her eyes and looked at her lower abdomen. She carefully and gently placed her hand on it, stroking it back and forth, her eyes filled with a resolute look.
Li Tingxi, you are not worthy to be the father of my child.
Outside the ward, Qin He looked at the bloody teeth marks on Li Tingxi's neck, his expression hesitant to speak.
Li Tingxi buttoned up the top button of his shirt, signaling that he was getting down to business.
Qin He reported the results of his request to check Su Youling's pregnancy test records: "President Li, I have sent people to check hospitals in B City, C City, and Lingshui Town, but we found nothing. It seems that someone has tampered with Madam's medical records."
Upon hearing this, Li Tingxi frowned, but quickly understood. "Have someone keep a close eye on Wei Ning. We absolutely cannot let him contact Su Su. Also, find a few top hackers and make sure they find out Su Su's pregnancy test information as soon as possible."
He couldn't wait any longer. Su Youling's behavior just now made him uneasy. Even though she was right under his nose, he always felt that she might disappear at any moment.
After that, Su Youling had frequent nightmares. Each time, she would scream and beg Li Tingxi to give her back her child, waking up in terror. After waking up, she would lose control of her emotions and hit and curse Li Tingxi. She was in pain, and Li Tingxi was in pain too.
Because he was worried that she might do something rash, Li Tingxi focused all his attention on her and stayed by her side almost every step of the way.
During this time, Shen Xiyue called him many times, but he didn't answer a single one, and directly let Qin He take full responsibility for taking care of her.
However, he still had to handle the arrangements for going abroad.
Li Tingxi didn't avoid Su Youling and, in front of her, spoke with Qin He to finalize the arrangements for going abroad. Inevitably, he asked about Shen Xiyue's current situation.
#Please do not use incognito mode whenever verification is required!
He glanced at Su Youling subconsciously, and saw that she still had no expression on her face when she heard Shen Xiyue's name, and didn't even look in his direction. His heart sank.
Su Youling's composure wasn't feigned; she genuinely didn't care anymore.
After hanging up the phone, Li Tingxi sat down by the hospital bed, making sure he was in her sight before earnestly explaining his situation with Shen Xiyue: "Su Su, Shen Xiyue agreed to the divorce on the condition that I let the Shen couple go. What I did had nothing to do with her; I did it all for you..."
Su Youling looked at him, her calm eyes showing no ripples, as if she had completely ignored what he said.
Li Tingxi suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness.
Knowing that Su Youling wanted him to let go in this way, he narrowed his eyes, leaned down and got close to Su Youling's face, "Su Su, don't even think about leaving me. Even if I have to tie you up, I will tie you to my side."
Su Youling's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she turned her face away in disgust. "Li Tingxi, is this kind of mutual torment meaningful?"
"You're wrong. Letting you go would be torture for me."
...
After being rejected by Li Tingxi countless times, Shen Xiyue stared blankly at her phone, her heart sinking.
Since her accident, Li Tingxi has never lost contact with her for so long. Does this mean that Li Tingxi has decided to give up on her?
When Qin He came in, he saw Shen Xiyue staring blankly at her phone with red eyes.
It's obvious without even thinking that it's for Li Tingxi.
He sighed inwardly, but didn't show his emotions on his face. He routinely handed the file bag in his hand to Shen Xiyue, "Director Shen, this is what President Li asked me to deliver. Please take a look."
When Shen Xiyue heard that the package was sent by Li Tingxi, a glimmer of light appeared in her eyes. However, after seeing that the package contained information about foreign orthopedic experts and plane tickets, the light in her eyes quickly dimmed.
Qin He said in a businesslike manner, "Director Shen, as you have seen, President Li's intention is to arrange for you to receive treatment abroad as soon as possible."
Shen Xiyue bit her lower lip in resentment, her watery eyes looking pitiful. "Didn't he promise me he wouldn't send me abroad?"
Qin He glanced at her once before looking away, his reply still firm and methodical: "This is President Li's decision."
Shen Xiyue gave a self-deprecating laugh, looking at him with resentment, "Then why didn't he give me these things in person, and why didn't he answer the phone?"
Helpless, Qin He had no choice but to tell her the truth in order to make her give up, that Li Tingxi would be staying by Su Youling's side while she was sick and hospitalized.
Shen Xiyue unconsciously tightened her grip on the plane ticket.
Even if Li Tingxi had to take care of Su Youling, he wouldn't be so busy as to not be able to answer her calls. His eagerness to send her abroad and treat her leg injury was probably secondary; his real intention was to prevent Su Youling from misunderstanding.
The deep sense of defeat brought Shen Xiyue to the brink of despair. Did she really have no hope at all?
"Director Shen, President Li said that if you have any further needs after visiting, you can ask me to pass on the message..."
Before Qin He could finish speaking, Shen's mother and Shen Cong walked in one after the other.
"What message should we convey?" Chen's mother walked to the bedside, saw the documents and plane tickets in Qin He's hand, and her face darkened instantly. She snatched the file folder and threw it at Qin He. "Why should we accept Li Tingxi's arrangements? Let him come and talk to us in person!"
