Chapter 621 You've Been Used as a Pawn
Su Youling struggled violently, making it impossible for the professor to hold her down with one hand. He could only try to restrain the crazed woman with both hands. "Damn it—"
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Su Youling suddenly straightened her upper body and slammed her head into Professor Richard's head, and punched the remote control in his hand without hesitation.
Snap!
In a moment of carelessness, the professor let go and threw the remote control away.
Professor Richard's expression changed, and he instinctively reached for the remote control, but Su Youling grabbed his wrist tightly and said coldly, "Old man, if you have the guts, then kill me! Let me tell you, Ye Qing coveted my man and hurt my son; she deserved to die."
"You call yourself a loving father, but don't you know that belated fatherly love is worth less than grass? If you had raised Ye Qing properly back then, and raised her to be an upright and strong person like you, she wouldn't have been so foolish as to turn against us and resort to all sorts of underhanded tricks!"
"Professor Richard, if I may be so blunt—Ye Qing's current state of being a mutilated corpse is entirely your fault. You are the one who deserves to die the most." She desperately used vicious words to attract Professor Richard's attention, so that he wouldn't pay attention to the remote control.
"You—go to hell! Go and atone to Qingqing." Professor Richard was indeed furious, his eyes reddening. He didn't bother to pick up the remote control, and he gripped Su Youling's neck tightly, wishing he could break her neck to vent his anger.
A strong feeling of suffocation washed over me; the scent of death suddenly drew near—
Su Youling's face turned a bluish-purple color, her eyes bulged out, and for a moment she even thought she was going to die there.
My only hope is that Li Tingxi can safely rescue Yangyang at this time...
Unexpectedly, in the end, she still ended up having to trade her life for another.
Thinking that she might soon lose her life, Su Youling subconsciously recalled the words Li Tingxi had said that day, and couldn't help but force a smile.
Indeed, it is only when a person is on the verge of death that they clearly realize what is truly important.
She never truly intended to leave Li Tingxi; she merely hoped that by using that cold and hurtful attitude to protect herself, she could also force Li Tingxi to break down his defenses and open his heart to her.
From the very beginning, all she wanted was to completely win over Li Tingxi's heart.
Subconsciously, she didn't want to admit it, because the one who falls in love first always loses—this time, she didn't want to be at a disadvantage and end up in a miserable escape like she did five years ago.
It wasn't until she felt her life was coming to an end that she realized all her worries and tug-of-war had been in vain.
Only by living can we be truly alive.
There are always some things that we haven't had a chance to say, but will never be able to say them.
Gradually, Su Youling's vision blurred, her breathing became intermittent, and she seemed to have left her body, her ears filled with Professor Richard's maniacal laughter of retaliation.
Extremely harsh.
At the critical moment—
Bang!
The door was kicked open forcefully.
Li Tingxi led his men into the room and, upon seeing the dying Su Youling, flew into a rage. He grabbed Professor Richard by the collar and threw him out violently.
"Su Su!" He quickly bent down and hugged Su Youling in his arms, rushed to the window to let her breathe in some fresh air, and patted her back as he did so. "How are you? Are you feeling unwell?"
"Cough cough..." Su Youling couldn't help but push him away and leaned against the window like a madwoman.
#Please do not use incognito mode whenever verification is required!
I was coughing violently, tears were streaming down my face, and I felt completely exhausted.
"Remote control..." she coughed as she reminded him of the most important thing, but out of the corner of her eye she saw Professor Richard shakily get up and rush towards the remote control in the corner.
Go to hell, all of you!
Death ends it all!
"Li Tingxi, the remote control!" Su Youling had no strength and couldn't move an inch. She could only shout hoarsely, "That's the remote control for the time bomb at the horse farm. Stop him quickly!"
Before Li Tingxi could take a step forward, the professor pressed the red button hard and shouted, "Die! Die, all of you!"
boom--
A huge explosion came from the direction of the horse farm not far away.
The thick black smoke and flames rising into the sky were enough to demonstrate the immense destructive power of this explosion.
"Yangyang!" Su Youling's mind went blank for a moment, and she almost fainted on the spot, but her body went limp in Li Tingxi's arms.
"Don't be afraid, Wen Xi and Zhou Lang took Yangyang to the hospital. He was just under anesthesia, he'll be fine." Li Tingxi picked up the weak Su Youling, his gaze falling on the terrifying finger marks on her neck, his eyes immediately turning cold. "Professor Richard, I didn't originally intend to kill you."
Professor Richard slumped to the ground in a daze. "How is this possible? Where is Carlos? Why didn't he keep an eye on a five-year-old child? Useless!"
“Carlos has already escaped. He’s much smarter than you.” At this moment, Xia Zhiying walked lightly to the old professor’s side, looking at him with pity. “Professor, you’ve been used as a pawn.”
"Who are you? What nonsense are you spouting?" Professor Richard instinctively avoided her clear and intelligent gaze, as if all filth and depravity had nowhere to hide in those eyes. "Carlos, tell me the truth. I'm avenging my daughter. What did I do wrong?"
Xia Zhiying hadn't even had a chance to speak.
Li Tingxi gently placed Su Youling on the bed and walked over with a cold face. "Don't tell me that everything you did was for Ye Qing's good. If you really had such strong fatherly love, why didn't you do it sooner?"
“I warned you about Ye Qing’s actions long ago, and I also warned you to restrain Ye Qing and prevent her from harassing our family again. It is your indulgence and blind trust that have made Ye Qing more and more audacious and wicked.”
The old professor froze, then immediately retorted, "Shut up! You're the murderer who killed Qingqing. I don't believe a single word of your nonsense."
Li Tingxi's expression grew increasingly cold. "How Ye Qing died and what she did before she died are not things that Carlos can explain by showing you a video and spouting a few nonsense. If you don't know the details, go and investigate properly, or you won't be fooled like this."
"you--"
“Professor, according to your logic, murderers should pay with their lives. Ye Qing’s repeated misdeeds against my wife and children deserve to die a thousand times over.” Li Tingxi’s eyes were cold as he spoke sarcastically, “If you hadn’t saved Yangyang, Ye Qing wouldn’t have been able to keep going for so long.”
The old professor seemed to have been strangled, suddenly collapsing to the ground, his eyes unfocused, seemingly lost in thought, muttering to himself, as if he had fallen into a state of madness.
"Can you help him?" Su Youling, having recovered her composure, quietly approached Xia Zhiying and whispered, "In the end, Professor Richard is the most innocent one. He did nothing wrong, yet he lost his daughter and became a pawn for those with ulterior motives..."
Xia Zhiying understood her thoughts and smiled reassuringly, "Leave him to me."
