Chapter 584 Extreme Phrases
"Immediately and secretly activate the tracking program I had you place on Lele." Li Tingxi stared coldly at the unpredictable night outside the window. "Use all the resources we can muster right now to find a way to rescue Rebecca as soon as possible."
The night wind was chilling to the bone.
Li Tingxi hadn't slept all night. Early in the morning, he came downstairs with huge panda eyes. His tall body was huddled on the sofa, staring intently at the stairwell.
He wanted to see if Su Youling really wouldn't show any reaction at all!
More than an hour passed, and Li Tingxi didn't even appear.
Su Hong, carrying groceries, turned around from outside and was startled to see his gloomy expression. "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing." Li Tingxi stood up, forcing a smile. "Where's Su Su?"
"She had to rush back to Atlanta for official business and went to the airport early this morning." Su Hong glanced at him and asked worriedly, "Didn't she tell you? Did you two have another fight?"
Even asking that question made Su Hong feel exhausted for the two of them.
It's been so many years, and they've been making a mess of things endlessly.
They're not tired, but the onlookers are.
However, matters of the heart are like drinking water; only the person experiencing it knows whether it's hot or cold, and others really have no right to interfere.
"No." Li Tingxi pinched the bridge of his nose, suppressing his fierce expression. "I originally wanted to tell her in person that my family and I would be leaving in a few days."
Su Hong hesitated for a moment, "Can Yangyang's body withstand it?"
"Professor Richard has examined Yangyang and he's fine. Just keep up with the follow-up checkups and get proper rehabilitation and rest." After saying this, Li Tingxi made an excuse to leave first and hurriedly headed to the airport.
at the same time.
Although it was still early, the airport was already bustling with people.
Su Youling, carrying her suitcase, watched with no surprise as Shen Xiyue and the old man appeared in the waiting room together, smiling at her.
"Su girl, you're here!" Old Master Yin greeted her casually. "You've come so early, haven't you eaten yet? Would you like to have something to eat with us?"
Breakfast is a special service provided by the airport, featuring local specialties.
Su Youling had no appetite and shook her head, "No need, you guys eat. I'm not hungry."
"If you don't eat and drink your fill, how will you deal with such a huge mess when you get back?" Shen Xiyue came over with a glass of milk and mocked Su Youling. "Even a tiger is bullied when it's down in the plains, let alone you, who's just a paper tiger. Once your backer falls, what can you use to fight those people?"
Su Youling glanced at the old man dining in the restaurant and coldly questioned her, "What exactly did you do to Old Master Yin? What kind of bewitching potion did you give him to make him trust you so much?"
Their eyes met, and they both squinted.
Outside the hall, people came and went in a bustling atmosphere, but inside, it was so quiet you could hear a pin drop, and even the air seemed tense.
“He’s getting old, and all he wants is to be with his children. His most beloved daughter is suffering because of an outsider. How could he not be angry?” Shen Xiyue said casually, a hint of smugness in her eyes. “I didn’t have to put in much effort to persuade him. Maybe my boss has some other leverage over him.”
This was the first time Shen Xiyue had brought up the person behind the scenes on her own initiative, and she even had a smug look on her face...
"Your boss was the one who instigated you to act out a kidnapping case five years ago to deceive you."
#Please do not use incognito mode whenever verification is required!
"Li Tingxi, yet he remains a coward who dares not show himself?"
Su Youling clenched her fists without showing any emotion. "You underwent plastic surgery and infiltrated Li Tingxi's side just to be his spy, right? I was wondering how a returnee with no background or ability could hire such a high-level assassin and escape from Li Tingxi's heavy guard... So you had a mastermind behind you."
If Shen Xiyue hadn't been alive, she wouldn't even have known that there was such a big boss behind the events of five years ago.
That person only dared to cause trouble quietly behind the scenes back then, but five years later, he gradually began to show his true colors and blatantly provoke Li Tingxi, which shows that his strength and experience are no longer comparable to before.
Did Li Tingxi already know about this person's existence?
Suppressing her inner speculation, Su Youling saw that Shen Xiyue remained calm and deliberately provoked her, saying, "It's been five years, and the expert you rely on has always been hiding behind the scenes as a shadow that can't see the light of day. It's clear that he's still afraid of Li Tingxi at heart, and only dares to hide in the shadows and show off his claws and enjoy himself!"
"Shut up!"
"What's so great about being a lackey for this kind of trash?" Su Youling curled her lips and said sarcastically, "No matter how much of a paper tiger I am, I still became CEO and reached the pinnacle of my career through my own abilities. But you're still just a vine clinging to a man, being used by others and even smugly serving as a pawn. You're so stupid!"
"Shut up! What right do you, you bitch, have to criticize me?" Shen Xiyue, enraged, poured milk over Su Youling's head. "If you hadn't stolen my man, would I have ended up like this, at someone else's beck and call?"
"I am a pawn to be manipulated, and you are nothing more than Li Tingxi's entertainment. We all rely on men, so how can you be more noble than me?"
Seeing Su Youling's disheveled appearance but her inability to resist, she became complacent and only thought about taking the opportunity to vent her anger.
"Just you wait and see!"
Shen Xiyue stepped forward and grabbed Su Youling's shoulder, her expression cold as she said, "We are just allies who settle scores and seek revenge. While he was using me, wasn't I also using him? Anyway, we all have the same goal—Li Tingxi will soon be penniless and crawl back to me like a drowning dog begging for mercy, while you will only be more miserable and pathetic than him."
Su Youling's heart sank.
The mastermind behind Shen Xiyue is a cunning man who also has a deep grudge against Li Tingxi.
They came not only for the Li family, but also for Li Tingxi himself.
If she guessed correctly, the person five years ago originally intended to use her as a sacrifice, but the one who truly wanted to scheme against her was Li Tingxi...
As a result of a series of unforeseen events, he had already prepared a plan to escape unscathed, which disrupted the enemy's formation and gave Li Tingxi the opportunity to turn the tables.
Five years ago, Su Youling was only targeted as Li Tingxi's weakness.
Five years later, she became a primary target on the other side's attack list.
Su Youling quickly brainstormed, determined to extract more useful information from Shen Xiyue while she was in a daze.
"Stop trying to glorify yourselves! You're just a bunch of so-called cowards." She wiped the milk droplets from her face expressionlessly. "You've managed to hide so well under Li Tingxi's nose; Old Master Li must have helped you a lot, right?"
“We…” Shen Xiyue almost blurted out, but the bodyguard behind her suddenly rushed over, “Miss, Li Tingxi is here, you must leave as soon as possible.”
