Chapter 418 wasn't about checking up on you, it was just that I was worried about you.
Hearing the commotion outside, Xia Zhiying was worried and opened the door to see this scene, which surprised her greatly—this girl is so amazing and domineering.
Mr. Zhang howled in agony, "Ouch, it hurts! You two good-for-nothings, break her arm right now! And that Xia Zhiying too..."
He caught a glimpse of Xia Zhiying at the door of the cubicle out of the corner of his eye, and gritted his teeth, saying, "Knock them all out, carry them back to their room, give them plenty of medicine, and I want them to be begging me for mercy later!"
Seeing his fierce demeanor and his muscular bodyguards, Xia Zhiying gritted her teeth and rushed over, saying, "It has nothing to do with her, don't do anything rash."
Without saying a word, one bodyguard rushed towards Su Youling and the other towards Xia Zhiying, intending to deal with their boss's romantic entanglements in one fell swoop.
A cold glint flashed across Su Youling's lips. Completely ignoring how the two bodyguards rushed over, she grabbed President Zhang by the neck with one hand and kicked him hard in the leg.
Mr. Zhang felt a sharp pain in his knee and instinctively knelt down, crying out in pain.
He had been counting on his two bodyguards for help, but a tall, dark figure flashed by. Before he could even see what the person looked like, his two bodyguards were reduced to mushy patties on the ground, unable to move.
Xia Zhiying was so frightened that she forgot to dodge, staring dumbfounded at the newcomer. "Wow...so amazing!"
Is this some kind of martial arts master?
Zhou Lang stepped over the bodyguard, wiped his fingers in disgust, and quickly walked to Su Youling's side. "Madam, let me handle this old man. Don't dirty your hands."
“The way to deal with this kind of old rogue is to fight fire with fire.” Su Youling stepped on President Zhang. “Weren’t you going to give us drugs? There must be a lot of good stuff in this club. Since you like playing with excitement so much, I’ll grant your wish.”
Mr. Zhang finally came to his senses. Looking at the strong and cold-looking Zhou Lang, he trembled with fear. "You...you mustn't do anything rash. Do you know who I am?"
"Remember this, I'm your ancestor!" Su Youling sneered, then said to Zhou Lang, "Administer all the fun drugs in the club to him, and go find some more people..."

After hearing her whisper, Zhou Lang's face turned green, and he felt instinctively nauseous, but he still kicked President Zhang unconscious and dragged him away.
Xia Zhiying was stunned, her face turning bright red. "Who are you? Why do you seem so adept at dealing with this kind of person?"
"Practice makes perfect. When I was your age, I encountered far more disgusting business partners than him." Su Youling glanced at her; her complexion was truly appalling. "Are you hurt? Should I take you to the hospital?"
"I'm fine, thank you for saving me." Xia Zhiying explained subconsciously, "However, I'm not pregnant. I just threw up because of... psychological reasons."
Su Youling paused, her gaze sweeping over the woman's pale face before settling on her flat stomach. She pursed her lips. "I'm sorry, you look just like me when I first got pregnant. Maybe I misunderstood. But I didn't know I was pregnant back then; I had no experience..."
Seeing Xia Zhiying's face growing paler, she paused, about to change the subject.
The phone rang.
The call was from Li Tingxi in City C.
"What are you doing? I was only gone a few hours ago," Su Youling said instinctively. "Do you have to be so petty? I came here to discuss business, not to date. Why are you checking up on me?"
Normally, she wouldn't be able to leave City C at this time.
But Ding Muyan has been really busy lately. Many projects in City A have kept him occupied, and the contract for the art exhibition urgently needs to be finalized, so she bought a plane ticket and rushed back.
"I wasn't checking up on you, I was just worried about you." Li Tingxi coughed lightly and said worriedly, "Zhou Lang..."
"Tell me, you ran into that old pervert? That bastard doesn't need your help; next time, just hand him over to Zhou Lang."
"It's okay, I have experience." Su Youling's casual remark caused the atmosphere between the two to suddenly freeze.
Xia Zhiying, who was watching from the side, sensed that something was wrong. Feeling embarrassed to eavesdrop on the couple's phone call, she said softly, "Miss, thank you for your help. I won't disturb you any longer."
Su Youling gave Xia Zhiying an apologetic look and watched her leave.
The bad guys have all been caught, so she should be fine leaving on her own.
After everyone left, Su Youling sighed, "Don't overthink it, Li Tingxi. If we want to move on, the first step is to bravely face the past."
"I'm sorry," Li Tingxi said in a muffled voice.
“If it’s because of your past awfulness, then there’s no need, because I don’t need it now. If it’s because of the present, then there’s even less need. And you don’t need to apologize now.” Su Youling calmly soothed his unease. “Li Tingxi, what we want is the future.”
“Yes, it’s the future.” Li Tingxi’s low spirits suddenly ignited. “Su Su, when are you coming back? I’ll come pick you up. The doctor said I can control myself very well in a wheelchair now…”
"No way!" Su Youling interrupted his wild fantasies. "I still have some finishing work to take care of, so I can't go back until tomorrow. I'll be at the hospital as soon as you wake up. If you dare to wander off, I'll go straight home."
Although Yangyang's fever had subsided and her mother and Wenxi were helping to take care of her, she was still worried.
"No, I was wrong," Li Tingxi said obediently. "I'll go to sleep right away. Don't stay up too late either. I'll wait for you to come back."
He paused, then reassured her, "Don't worry about Yangyang. I've already asked Qin He to bring a private doctor over to take care of her. Yangyang doesn't like going to the hospital, so..."

Let the doctor care for him at home until he recovers.
Su Youling did not refuse. She had originally had the same idea, but she was afraid that Yangyang would feel uncomfortable.
Since Li Tingxi has made the arrangements for her, it's good that she can rest assured.
It seems that Li Tingxi has really started to put on a show for Yangyang.
"Keep it up," Su Youling encouraged with a smile. "With this kind of determination, you'll definitely have no problem winning over the kids."
"Absolutely!" Li Tingxi chuckled softly, his eyes filled with fighting spirit.
Meanwhile, outside the clubhouse.
"Xia Zhiying, stop right there!"
Suddenly, a torrential downpour began outside. Unable to hail a taxi, Xia Zhiying ran back in the rain, only to be surprised when Chu Yuexuan suddenly appeared from the roadside.
She was furious at the thought of President Zhang and completely ignored Chu Yuexuan's orders.
After running for an unknown amount of time, Chu Yuexuan caught up with them in his car.
"Get in the car." Seeing that she was soaked to the bone but still wanted to run, Chu Yuexuan roughly pulled her into the car and locked it.
"Aren't even high-value checks enough for you?" Chu Yuexuan leaned down and pinched the woman's chin, his voice laced with sarcasm. "Xia Zhiying, how much more do you and the Xia family want from me? Just say it, stop with this 'playing hard to get' act!"
If she were truly so noble and innocent, she wouldn't have colluded with the Xia family in the first place, and instead shamelessly imitated Xia Zhineng's advances.
She's being all coy, just to get more!
How could such a greedy woman possibly bear to leave him?
"Chu Yuexuan, since you look down on me, why keep me around in your way?" Xia Zhiying looked at the man's cold and disdainful eyes. "Don't you want to give up a bed warmer?"
A brief silence fell over the car; their breaths mingled, but their eyes were cold and distant.
