Chapter 258 The Battle of the Cutest Babies
Wen Xi's expression changed, and the hand on Su Youling's arm tightened unconsciously due to nervousness. Her eyes asked her: What should we do? It seems like we're about to face each other head-on.
She lowered her voice: "Why don't you go first?"
Su Youling's heart tightened as she heard the approaching footsteps.
Just as Li Tingxi was about to head towards Su Youling, Karina suddenly blocked his way, grabbed his sleeve, and advised, "Don't listen to Lele and cause trouble for others. This isn't their fault; it's Lele's fault for being immature. Don't spoil her. It's better to avoid trouble. Let's go."
After saying that, she pulled Li Tingxi towards the airport exit.
Li Tingxi felt a little strange because of her eager attitude, and was about to ask her a question.
"I don't care, Dad, you have to stand up for me!" Lele yelled in his arms, grabbing his trouser leg and trying to sit down on the ground.
Karina's face darkened instantly; she felt helpless and embarrassed at the same time.
"Tingxi, it's my fault for not raising our daughter well, you..."
Before she could finish speaking, Li Tingxi impatiently interrupted her: "Alright, I need to know why Lele was wronged. Whether it's her fault or not is not something you can decide with just a few words."
Karina's face turned pale, and she was choked speechless.
Lele immediately wiped away her tears, let go of Li Tingxi's trouser leg, ran over quickly, grabbed Yueyue's sleeve, and turned the tables: "Daddy, it was her who bullied me!"
Yueyue's eyes instantly turned red, both angry and aggrieved.
Although Su Youling felt sorry for him, she didn't want to confront Li Tingxi directly, so she handed him and Xingxing over to Wen Xi, saying, "I'll take Yangyang and go first. Once you've finished dealing with things here, bring the two children to us as soon as possible."
Upon receiving Wen Xi's affirmative reply, she immediately pulled Yangyang into her arms, shielding him completely with her trench coat, and quickly disappeared into the crowd.
When Li Tingxi approached, he only caught a glimpse of her back as she hurried past.
However, just that one glance was enough to shake him to his core.
It's so similar! Five years have passed, and this familiar feeling... it can't be that he's mistaken.
Li Tingxi's expression changed, and he immediately tried to chase after them.
Wenxi saw through his intentions and her palms were sweating with fear.
She quickly rescued Yueyue from Lele's clutches, then led her and Xingxing to block Li Tingxi's path, taking the initiative to challenge him: "You're the father of this little girl named Lele, right? Let's have a fair hearing today. I want to ask you how you raise your daughter!"
Li Tingxi frowned, realizing it was too late to find that familiar figure in the crowd.
He looked away with a sense of loss, his heart sinking deeper and deeper.
It's probably just his imagination... even though he knows it's impossible.
He calmed himself down, looked at Wen Xi who had an unfriendly expression, narrowed his eyes, and displayed the authority of a superior: "Perhaps it's because you, madam, don't know how to discipline your child?"
Wenxin cursed him in her heart upon hearing this, but she didn't hold back when she said it: "Your daughter is arrogant and domineering. She stole the ice cream and doll that my daughter bought and then turned around and blamed me."
"And your wife," she rolled her eyes at Karina, making no attempt to hide her disdain, "is no better. She tried to bribe us into swallowing our anger. It's true what they say, the world is going to the dogs, there are all sorts of rude people out there."

Upon hearing this, Li Tingxi gave Karina a deep look.
Karina panicked immediately, and holding Lele who was crying again, she shook her head and explained to him, "Tingxi, this is all a misunderstanding."
"It's not a misunderstanding at all!" Yueyue, who had been holding back since the beginning, finally couldn't take it anymore. She stared at Li Tingxi with her big, tearful eyes. "Uncle, are you also a bad person who can't distinguish right from wrong and tries to bribe us?"
Li Tingxi felt inexplicably soft-hearted when she looked at him with such a clean and straightforward gaze, and couldn't bring himself to say a harsh word.
Especially her gaze at that moment, which actually stirred a hint of pity in him.
He bent down slightly. "Can you tell your uncle what happened?"
The moment he spoke, his tone was so gentle that even he was surprised.
Karina's gaze towards him instantly became complicated. She couldn't help but shake Lele's arm, who was still sobbing, and gestured for her to go and act cute in front of Li Tingxi.
Meanwhile, Li Tingxi had already learned the whole story from Yueyue.
He straightened up, turned to look at Lele, and his eyes suddenly turned stern: "Lele, did you really steal someone else's things?"
Although it was a question, his serious and cold expression clearly showed that he had already believed Yueyue's words and was going to convict Lele.
Karina felt a pang of guilt. Holding Lele, she walked to his side and gently tugged at his sleeve. "Tingxi, how could you side with an outsider and be so harsh on Lele? Even if she did something wrong, she still has her pride..."
Li Tingxi couldn't listen to this anymore. He subtly distanced himself from her, his businesslike attitude obvious: "She does something wrong but doesn't admit it. Instead, she frames others and uses her power to intimidate them. Karina, is this what you taught her?"
Karina could no longer maintain her composure, especially when she met Wen Xi's sarcastic and amused gaze, which only fueled her anger.
She unconsciously pinched Lele.
Lele cried even louder, forcefully breaking free from her embrace and rushing to Yueyue, pretending to hit her: "You're lying! I didn't steal anything from you, and you didn't even give me any money! You're not allowed to speak ill of me in front of my dad."
As her hand reached out to grab Yueyue's face, Yueyue's face instantly turned pale.
Wenxi and Xingxing's expressions changed simultaneously, and they immediately went to stop Lele.
Xingxing was especially quick, shoving Lele aside and standing in front of Yueyue with her small body. Her gentle little face turned fierce with anger, "No one can bully my sister!"
Lele fell to the ground with a thud and cried until her voice was hoarse.
Seeing that things were not going well, the bodyguard that Karina brought back immediately stepped forward and scolded Xingxing, grabbing his arm and glaring at him: "Little guy, who told you to lay a hand on him?"
Wenxi was a little worried, but knowing Xingxing's abilities, she didn't act rashly for the time being.
Li Tingxi's face darkened immediately. Just as he was about to tell the bodyguard to leave, the bodyguard suddenly screamed, clutched his arm, and threw Xingxing's arm away.
"Kid, what did you do to me?" The bodyguard's face darkened, staring at Xingxing in disbelief, completely unable to believe that he had been outmaneuvered by such a young child.
He refused to believe it and strode over to lift the star up, intending to teach it a lesson.
Xingxing remained completely calm, swiftly darting behind him and delivering a powerful kick to his knee.
