Chapter 59 You're Not Allowed to Touch Her
Li Tingxi then realized what he had said and nervously moved his lips, "I..."
"You're a bastard!" Su Youling gritted her teeth, pushed Li Tingxi away, and slapped him hard across the face, so hard that her palm went numb.
Upon closer inspection, Li Tingxi's left cheek was instantly swollen, with a red five-finger mark on his handsome face, adding to his fury.
The air fell into a terrifying, deathly silence in an instant.
The contrast between Li Tingxi's gloomy, almost dripping face and Su Youling's heavy, angry breathing made the atmosphere even more eerie and tense.
The tension and suffocation of an impending storm were overwhelming. Seeing the man's terrifying expression, Lance quickly pulled Su Youling behind him and protected her tightly. "Su Su, don't be afraid! I won't let him hurt a single hair on your head."
"Ha! What an affectionate couple!" Li Tingxi clenched his fists, trying to control himself from resorting to violence like a reckless young man, but the raging anger inside him could not be vented.
Seeing Su Youling's focused gaze on Lance ignited his anger, making him even more reckless with his words, "Didn't she tell you? We're not divorced yet. Legally speaking, she's still my wife. You're clinging to my woman like this, practically begging to be a male mistress. Does your grandfather know?"
"What?" Lance stared at Li Tingxi in shock, then turned to Su Youling in disbelief. "Su Su, he is..."
The child's father?
But Su Youling was afraid he would mention the child, so she quickly covered Lance's mouth and shook her head slightly, "Lance, this is my private matter, please don't interfere."
She thought that such indifference would make Lance feel disgusted with her, but unexpectedly, this seemingly naive and simple young man saw the struggle and panic in her eyes at this moment, and realized that Su Youling might not want Li Tingxi to know about the child's existence.
He held Su Youling's hand and comforted her, "You need to handle your personal matters, and I need to protect you. There's no conflict between the two."

"Sigh." Su Youling couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion and reflection.
She and Lance had only known each other for a few hours. He knew nothing about her, and even her initial intention to help was not pure. Yet, when faced with the cannibalistic Li Tingxi and listening to his insults towards her, he did not look down on her in the slightest.
Such kindness and gentleness are hard not to be moved, especially in contrast to Li Tingxi's aggressive attitude.
"Su Youling!" Seeing the two exchanging glances, Li Tingxi's fist had already crumbled along with his reason the moment Su Youling placed her small hand on Lance's lips.
He forcefully pulled Su Youling close, gritting his teeth as he whispered in her ear, "If you dare take another step closer to him, I'll make him disappear from your sight forever."
Su Youling understood him, so she was both terrified and angry. "Li Tingxi, how dare you hurt him! You know I need Professor Jin's help, do you have to be so unreasonable?"
Seeing her trembling, anxious and angry like a rabbit with bloodshot eyes, Li Tingxi's heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously tightened his grip on her arm. "Then do you know how to make me happy?"
"I'm not going to serve you anymore. Go crazy however you want." Su Youling bit her lip hard, glared at Li Tingxi, and walked out.
This is utterly unreasonable!
Deep-seated madness!
"Stop!" Li Tingxi grabbed her. "Did I say you could leave?"
Even at this point, she's still single-mindedly focused on protecting her lover and won't even back down!
Su Youling shook off his hand and growled, "Li Tingxi, I've already left, and I'm not going back. Whether you're happy or not is none of my business."
close. "
"Su Su." Lance's expression changed as he watched the two clashing. He clenched his fist and slammed it towards Li Tingxi. "She doesn't want to, you're not allowed to touch her."
"Who do you think you are! Get out of my way." Li Tingxi's eyes were cold and ruthless. He easily caught Lance's fist and threw a punch back.
That punch carried the force of a thunderbolt; it was no joke.
"Lance!" Su Youling pushed Lance away, grabbed his arm and led him to the door, frowning as she said, "He didn't force me."
"Susu!" Lance said anxiously, "You don't need to wrong yourself in front of me."
“He’s right, we’re still husband and wife.” Su Youling sighed, looking at the impulsive young man. “Lance, I’m sorry, I hope I haven’t done anything to make you misunderstand. Would you please leave now?”
Otherwise, if Li Tingxi really lost his temper, she wouldn't be able to stop him.
Lance was just an innocent outsider and shouldn't have been dragged into her war with Li Tingxi.
Seeing the girl's restrained expression, Lance gritted his teeth and glared fiercely at Li Tingxi. Ultimately, unwilling to make things difficult for Su Youling, he turned and left angrily.
"Su Su? How affectionate!" Li Tingxi's tone was full of sourness, but when he saw Lance's figure disappear, he barely suppressed his anger and did not want to make things worse with Su Youling.
"Come here." Li Tingxi looked at Su Youling's cheek. The gauze was a little crooked after being handled, but fortunately there was no bleeding, so the wound seemed to be healing well.
But considering the brutal kidnapping she had gone through, he still couldn't rest easy without personally checking on her safety.
Su Youling stood motionless at the door. "I still need to see Professor Jin..."

"I'll handle Professor Jin's situation. I promised to have him operate on your mother. Can't you trust me just this once?" Li Tingxi frowned, clearly annoyed that she seemed so eager to get rid of him.
She refused to take the shortcut he offered, insisting on overcoming obstacles and solving problems on her own.
"Trust you? You called me all the way back to City A, saying you'd pick me up at the airport, and what happened? I was kidnapped by Chen Yu and his two accomplices, and the last person I called was you. I entrusted my life to you, and what did I get in return?" Su Youling smiled sadly and asked bleakly, "Li Tingxi, I gave you my trust, can you afford it?"
Li Tingxi's face turned pale, and he said in a panic, "You called me for help..."
He suddenly remembered the phone call Lin Lexi had mentioned. It turned out that she had asked him for help, but he hadn't investigated it at the time, nor had he followed up on it afterward!
Su Youling said she didn't care about him at all, but in times of crisis, he was the first person she thought of. As a result, he betrayed this precious trust!
Li Tingxi was flustered and confused, almost unable to look at Su Youling's disappointed eyes. He rushed forward and hugged her tightly. "I'm sorry, my father had a relapse of his old illness that day and was in the operating room. By the time I sent Qin He to pick you up, it was already too late."
The belated joy and lingering fear of surviving the ordeal enveloped him, and he could only feel at ease when he felt Su Youling in his arms.
Li Tingxi looked down at Su Youling's unmoved face and hurriedly explained, "Lin Lexi answered the phone, but she didn't tell me—that something had happened to you! If I had known then..."
"So what if I know?" Su Youling mocked herself, saying she was just a fool. Otherwise, why would Li Tingxi think she was brainless?
"Was it your father's serious illness and hospitalization that held you back? Or did Shen Xiyue's sudden appearance make you forget all about home?"
