Chapter 392 The Ring You Owe Me
Yangyang, with a serious expression, said in a measured tone, "The clues left in the hotel were very limited. The police investigated for a long time but found nothing. I found some clues from the way they hacked the hotel's surveillance cameras... Following the trail, the clues finally led to this website."
He knew about this assassin organization, but the website wasn't easy to access.
With his hacking skills, forcibly breaking in wouldn't be a problem, but this website has a robust defense system and self-destruct mechanism.
Without a proper user login procedure, the website will immediately initiate a 'suicide' process once it is forcibly compromised.
Even if he hacked in, he wouldn't find any useful information; all that would be left was a pile of ruins.
"Uncle, you have a way, right?" The little guy looked at Li Mufeng with a cold little face that resembled Li Tingxi by eight or nine points.
It sounds like a plea, but it looks like a threat.
He's exactly the same as his father.
Li Mufeng had been tormented by this kid so much that he was traumatized. "Yes, yes, yes, you've already called me 'Uncle,' how could I not?"
He wasn't your average tech-savvy hacker. Backed by a powerful family and having been around for decades, he naturally had far more connections than Yangyang, a naive little hacker.
“Yangyang, don’t blame me for not reminding you. This assassin organization has rules, and the more elite the assassin, the stronger the secrecy.” Li Mufeng logged into his account while giving the little guy a heads-up. “Even if you can get into the website and find out who wants to harm your mommy, they won’t easily tell the employer.”
After all, violating the confidentiality agreement would ruin one's reputation in the industry.
Who would dare to do business with them?
It's equivalent to being forced to leave the industry.
Yangyang frowned, staring intently at the screen. "Let's take it one step at a time. There's always a way out. It's better than just waiting and letting the people who harmed Mommy get away with it."
The two assassins have been found.

Even if they don't say it outright, he will naturally continue to find out who the employer is.
"Wow, your Mandarin has improved by leaps and bounds since you came back to China. You can even use classical poems now." Li Mufeng saw that the little guy was too serious and tried to laugh it off, but it had little effect.
This little guy has inherited Li Tingxi's aloof and taciturn personality 100%.
Aside from his own mother's lame jokes, everyone else has to step aside.
“It’s done, we’ve logged in.” Li Mufeng stepped aside and patted Yangyang’s shoulder. “This account was used by an assassin who retired a month ago. The code name is K. According to the rules of the assassin organization, the account of a retired assassin will be kept for 60 days to handle after-sales service and complete the assassin’s final curtain call.”
He cautioned, "If you do the math, you can only use this account for a maximum of one month. If you can't find the murderer within that time, there won't be another cheap account available anytime soon."
After all, such skilled assassins are rare and their turnover follows a certain pattern; it's impossible for them to retire one after another in a short period of time.
“One month is enough.” Yangyang nodded seriously, his expression growing increasingly solemn.
He needs to catch the culprit who harmed his mother as soon as possible, otherwise his mother may encounter more uncontrollable dangers.
...
Hospital, ICU ward.
It was visiting time again. Su Youling changed into a protective suit, put her phone in a medical isolation bag, sat in front of Li Tingxi's bed, and read him comments from netizens one by one, sharing gossip with him.
"The doctor said I should say something to rouse your will to live." She read the comments aloud.
With a dry mouth, she couldn't help but lick her lips. Staring at Li Tingxi's pale face, she said in a hoarse voice, "I don't want to talk about the past. It's not that I still hate you, but that memory is full of elements that make us unhappy. I'm afraid that if you hear it, you will run away."
Thinking about Li Tingxi's mental illness, Su Youling hadn't had time to learn more about it, so she didn't dare to draw any conclusions, especially since today was the last critical period. If Li Tingxi didn't wake up soon, whether he would ever wake up again was a very uncertain unknown.
Now, she can only rely on her intuition to choose how to awaken him.
"Li Tingxi, I said I would give you a chance. Now, I'm giving you a brand new chance, so I just want to talk to you about our present and our future."
"Some netizens are actually quite cute. They compared me to your deceased wife and then privately messaged me not to dwell on the tragedy of 'Wanwan being like Qing'."
"Some people say that there are thousands of handsome men in the world, and if one doesn't work out, just find another. Anyway, I'm a female CEO, and I have plenty of money to support younger men."
As she said this, her fingers, which were holding Li Tingxi's, suddenly trembled.
When I opened my palm, I saw his fingers twitch.
Although it was very slight, it did move.
Su Youling was excited and read some similar comments to him, but Li Tingxi did not give the same feedback as before and remained unconscious.
It seemed as if what she had just witnessed was merely a hallucination.
Looking at the jumping numbers and lines on the machine, Su Youling suddenly felt a sudden, inexplicable panic. She gripped Li Tingxi's hand tightly, and before she could even utter a sound, she choked up, "Li Tingxi, if you dare not wake up, I'll immediately find a good man to marry and find a stepfather for the children."
That person is younger, more handsome, richer, and more obedient than you.

The point is, he will definitely outlive you and be able to stay with me and the children for a very long time. He won't let me be laughed at by those with ulterior motives, nor will he bear to see me bullied.
Touching Li Tingxi's cold fingers, Su Youling bit her lip tightly. With visiting time approaching and him still showing no signs of waking up, she was starting to panic.
"Li Tingxi, you bought me a necklace and a bracelet, but you didn't give me a ring." She suddenly punched Li Tingxi in the chest, not daring to use force, but it was full of resentment and anxiety. "It's my first time getting married, but the name isn't mine, the ring isn't mine, the marriage certificate isn't mine, and even you aren't mine."
"Are you trying to get something for nothing again this time? You owe me a ring, are you planning to make it up to me in the next life?" She scolded herself, her eyes reddening, and she turned away to wipe her tears.
No matter how invincible she appears in public, or how powerful she is, when she is truly alone facing the unconscious Li Tingxi, she will feel fear, hesitation, and an inability to face the sound of death.
"The ring..." A faint, husky voice suddenly came from above, "I chose it five years ago."
"Huh?" Su Youling rubbed her ears, subconsciously thinking she was hallucinating again. When she looked up, she met those familiar dark eyes.
ecstatic.
"Li Tingxi, you're awake! Are you really... not dreaming?" Su Youling carefully touched his cheek, then suddenly pinched it hard.
"Hiss. Wife, are you trying to murder your husband?" Li Tingxi had just woken up and was one foot out of danger, but he was weak and his words were coming out one by one, so weak that he could not be heard unless you got close.
If it weren't for comforting Su Youling and not wanting her to be sad, he wouldn't have woken up so quickly. After all, his head felt like it was about to explode, and he just wanted to fall asleep.
