Chapter 490 Good News
"Do you think Rebecca can buy off someone like that with money? Some clowns can fool others, but don't fool yourself."
"I apologize for being misled and blindly criticizing them before. Anyone who sees the work of these designers has to admit that they are truly talented. Can someone give me some background information on them? I will also pay attention to their designs in the future."
"Has anyone noticed? Old Master Lu is exceptionally close to Rebecca, and his admiration is evident in his words. To receive such special attention from this big shot, who dares to say that my wife's artist status is just a marketing ploy? Do marketing gurus have the authority to invite a big shot like Old Master Lu to come and support them?"
"I, Rebecca, am the epitome of a powerful female protagonist in a wish-fulfillment novel. Who wouldn't love a rational, clear-headed, and domineering female CEO who uses her strength to slap people in the face? Waaaaah, from now on, I'm your loyal lapdog."
"Simp +1, Rebecca, my destined wife!"
"Simp +10086"
"..."
The live stream chat was gradually filled with compliments and praise for Su Youling, and the few smear comments from haters and online trolls could no longer make a ripple.
However, the style of the comments in the live stream soon went astray.
"Am I the only one who noticed that Grandpa Lu's grandson and Rebecca have an unusual relationship? I'd venture to guess that Grandpa Lu's attendance was likely at his grandson's request? Of course, I don't mean to question Rebecca's own abilities."
“I noticed that Lu Mingxuan and Rebecca were whispering to each other several times, and they seemed quite close.”
"The trending topic that broke before, Rebecca should have broken up with Li Tingxi, right? It seems that Li Tingxi cheated on her. Tsk tsk, if there's no explanation, I'm going to ship this couple."
"Go ahead and ship them! Who doesn't know that Lu Mingxuan is a huge fan of Rebecca? Check out Lu Mingxuan's S account. This guy has collected a lot of Rebecca's paintings and has called Rebecca his goddess more than once. I'm already shipping them."
"Get lost, you bastard! My wife's in such high demand, why would I worry about finding another man?"
"I've been fed up with this scumbag for a long time. Breaking up would be best. But if you could, could you condescend to look at this little lapdog?"
"..."
Qin He, who was still watching the live stream and preparing to dutifully report the subsequent developments to Li Tingxi, twitched his lips. He really didn't expect that his rich and handsome CEO Li would have such a bad reputation.
He left the live stream expressionlessly, secretly vowing never to let Li Tingxi know that netizens were calling him "Li Dog," otherwise he feared he would be implicated and lose his job.
...
The press conference concluded successfully, and Su Youling declined several media outlets' invitations for exclusive interviews.
Grandpa Lu was getting old, and he left before the press conference ended, accompanied by Lu Mingxuan.
Wen Xi had just seen all the media reporters off when she returned and saw Su Youling lying exhausted on the table. Feeling sorry for her, she wanted to go over and hug her.
Before she could take a step, a tall and imposing figure appeared beside her and raised a hand to stop her.
Wen Xi frowned and looked up, her gaze falling upon Li Tingxi's perfectly sculpted profile.
Her face instantly darkened, and she said coldly, "Mr. Li, you are not welcome here."
Li Tingxi's gaze remained fixed on Su Youling ahead.
#Please do not use incognito mode whenever verification is required!
He casually said, without any emotional fluctuation, "Qin He has something important to discuss with you."
Wen Xi sneered, "What does it have to do with me that he's looking for me? I have nothing to talk to him about."
Li Tingxi finally turned his head and narrowed his eyes dangerously: "I have something to say to her. If you don't want things to get more complicated, you'd better not meddle."
Wen Xi took a deep breath, glanced at Su Youling who hadn't moved for a while due to exhaustion, and reluctantly left, giving Li Tingxi a warning before she left.
Li Tingxi walked slowly to Su Youling's side and sat down silently.
Su Youling was just resting, her face buried in her arms, staring blankly at the area at her feet for a moment, when suddenly half a long leg and black men's leather shoes appeared in her line of sight.
She instinctively frowned, propping herself up with some resentment to look at the person who had entered, suppressing her anger, "Mr. Ding, I've already said that..."
She swallowed the rest of her words when she met Li Tingxi's dark, ink-like eyes.
She still frowned, her tone cold and distant: "Did President Li come here to see me make a fool of myself? Too bad, I couldn't let you have your wish."
Li Tingxi's eyelashes trembled slightly, but the question that came out was completely unrelated: "What did you and Ding Muyan talk about?"
Su Youling paused for a moment, then turned her face away irritably and lay down again. "This doesn't seem to have anything to do with you, does it? Mr. Li, thanks to you, I'm so tired right now that I just want to be alone for a while. Could you please leave me alone?"
Li Tingxi was speechless for a moment, but looking at her thin and frail figure, he couldn't bring himself to express his lingering resentment.
Neither of them spoke again, and Li Tingxi did not get up to leave.
Although Su Youling had her back to him, she could feel his gaze, which seemed almost tangible. For a moment, she was in a state of confusion, unable to understand what he meant.
...
The next afternoon, the expert team brought good news: Yangyang's treatment plan had been finalized.
“Yangyang’s current condition requires continued hospitalization. The first challenge we need to overcome is his immune system deficiency. Only on this basis can we continue with the next treatment,” the expert’s gaze shifted back and forth between Li Tingxi and Su Youling. “Currently, the medical equipment, environment and technology in China are not yet perfect. If necessary, Yangyang will need to receive treatment abroad.”
Su Youling nodded upon hearing this, showing complete cooperation.
Now that the crisis in the strange country has been resolved, she can completely put aside her work and accompany Yangyang abroad for treatment.
However, Li Tingxi's expression was somewhat solemn, especially when he saw Su Youling's calm demeanor, which made him increasingly irritable.
After leaving the consultation room, he grabbed Su Youling's wrist and pulled her into the lounge to talk.
Su Youling's wrist ached from his grip. After breaking free, her face darkened, and she snapped, "Li Tingxi, what's wrong with you now?!"
After yesterday's press conference, she and Li Tingxi spent a long time alone, so long that she didn't even know when she fell asleep. When she woke up, she was sleeping in a hotel bed next to the hospital, which she had booked to be with Yangyang.
Su Youling knew that Li Tingxi had taken her back to the hotel. When she saw Li Tingxi today, she was inexplicably unsure how to face him, but Li Tingxi did not mention a word about what happened last night.
Their relationship seemed to have changed somewhat because of their strange interaction last night, though she couldn't quite put her finger on it.
