Chapter 464 Disappointment
"This woman is the murderer who tried to kill my mother and child! And you actually want me to let her go? Li Tingxi, what you mean by giving me an explanation is just to make her apologize to me after she plays the victim? Or are you determined to protect her? If you just say yes, Li Tingxi, there's no need for me to continue this entanglement with you."
Li Tingxi never expected her to say something so serious. In a panic, he stepped forward, put his hands on her shoulders, and looked seriously into her eyes: "I will not protect anyone. I promised to give you an explanation, and I will not fool you. This is not the place to talk. Let's go back to the Li Mansion and sit down to talk slowly, okay?"
"Fine, I'll see how you plan to explain yourself today." Su Youling sneered, unceremoniously shaking his hand off her shoulder, and got into the car first, slamming the door shut.
Li Tingxi felt a headache coming on. When he looked at Shen Xiyue, who was holding Lele and crying with a wronged expression, his eyes suddenly turned cold.
Shen Xiyue's heart skipped a beat, and she continued to defend herself: "Tingxi, do you really believe Rebecca's one-sided story? You know best what kind of person I am. I would never do such a thing."
Li Tingxi withdrew his gaze expressionlessly, leaving her with a cold, hard back view: "I also hope that I haven't misjudged people all these years."
Shen Xiyue felt even more hatred for Su Youling.
After the group arrived at the Li Mansion, Li Tingxi ignored Lele's tantrum and had her taken upstairs and locked in a room.
Su Youling didn't waste any words and directly had her subordinates present the evidence, then confronted Shen Xiyue: "I found this phone on those assassins. Karina, since you insist that you are not the mastermind, then why do you have call records between you and them?"
Shen Xiyue was worried the whole way, afraid that Su Youling would reveal her identity. Even though she knew that Su Youling did not have any solid evidence, she did not dare to gamble. This was her trump card, and she had never planned to let Li Tingxi know it now.
Seeing that Su Youling didn't intend to tell Li Tingxi that she was Shen Xiyue, she was completely relieved, even though she didn't know why.
As for the so-called "evidence" that Su Youling presented, proving her collusion with the assassin, she quickly calmed down after her initial panic and retorted, "I'm sure this person isn't me, Rebecca. You can't just point the finger at me because of a simple IP address, can you? Can't something like that be faked?"
Looking at her smug and fearless demeanor, Su Youling laughed angrily: "Are you implying that I framed you?"
“I didn’t say that, Rebecca, why are you so sure you’re going to twist my words?” Shen Xiyue offered a soft knife while feigning weakness. “I offended Chairman Li by siding with Tingxi. It’s hard to say that he might be using me as a scapegoat to make us fight back and make things difficult for Tingxi.”
At this point, she looked at Li Tingxi to show her loyalty: "Tingxi, I used to want to ease the father-son relationship between you and Chairman Li, but now I have no contact with Chairman Li anymore, and this matter has nothing to do with me. I really don't know anything about it."
However, Li Tingxi remained unmoved, and his gaze towards her was meaningful. "I have already investigated, and this matter was not the work of the old man."

Shen Xiyue was speechless for a moment.
Su Youling burst out laughing: "Karina, even if you're going to find someone to take the blame, at least come up with a decent reason. Chairman Li has already revealed his true intentions. Doing this will not only do him no good, but will also make him my complete enemy. Why would he do this?"
Shen Xiyue was speechless, suppressing her anger as she tried her best to analyze for her: "Miss Rebecca's high-profile style has affected many people's interests, and it is inevitable that she will make enemies. Even if it is not Chairman Li, there is no need to put such a big label on my head, right?"
Su Youling was disgusted by her pretentious act, so she simply had the people behind her bring out all the information they had found and slammed it onto the coffee table.
Shen Xiyue's eyelids twitched, and the next second Li Tingxi had already picked up the document and started flipping through it.
“This is a bank card we found on the assassin leader. The money in this card came from several overseas accounts,” Su Youling stared at Shen Xiyue with a half-smile, catching a fleeting look of panic in her eyes. Her coldness deepened. “The total amount matches your personal account perfectly. Not only that, but the timing is also spot on. Karina, you’re not going to tell me this is just a coincidence, are you?”
Shen Xiyue's hands, hanging at her sides, tightened unconsciously, but she still tried to argue: "My private account was opened for me by someone from Chairman Li. I haven't even changed the initial password. Maybe there's a mole among Chairman Li's people who want to frame me."
Meeting Su Youling's sarcastic gaze, her eyes darted away for a moment, then she simply ran over and grabbed Li Tingxi's sleeve, sobbing as she sought his protection: "Tingxi, please believe me, okay? It really wasn't me! I swear to God."
Li Tingxi raised his head, his eyes cold and brooding as he looked at her, and asked, "How can I believe you based on just a few words?"
Shen Xiyue was surprised by the setback, her pupils widening slightly: "You also think I did it?"
Her gaze fell on the document in Li Tingxi's hand. She snatched it away, pretended to look at it for a few moments, then tore it into pieces in a fit of anger and frustration. Finally, her eyes red, she glared at Su Youling, her whole body trembling uncontrollably. "Rebecca, I know you've always been jealous of my special place in Li Tingxi's heart, so you're going to use this method to destroy me?"
"Tingxi even wants to send me and Lele abroad because of you, why are you still not satisfied? I beg you, what do you want from me? I'll kneel down for you, okay?" She was already sobbing uncontrollably as she spoke, and she pretended to actually kneel down to Su Youling.
Li Tingxi frowned and subconsciously reached out to stop the person.
Shen Xiyue looked exhausted from crying and leaned against Li Tingxi.
Li Tingxi couldn't ignore Su Youling's intense gaze, so he quickly pushed her away and helped her sit down on the sofa.
Su Youling looked on expressionlessly and coldly reminded him, "Li Tingxi, I've presented the evidence. Shouldn't you hand the person over to me for disposal now?"
Li Tingxi pinched the bridge of his nose, walked up to her and tried to take her hand. "Calm down first. Let me handle this, okay? The evidence isn't conclusive yet. Give me a week, and I'll find out the truth as soon as possible. If it really was Karina who did it, I will never protect her."
