Chapter 47 The person I married wasn't Shen Xiyue
"...Greed knows no bounds. If you keep nagging, you won't have a single penny left." Su Youling immediately dragged Wei Ning to complete the discharge procedures. Instead of returning to the residential area, they headed straight for the sanatorium, intending to leave as quickly as possible.
At most, her relationship with Li Tingxi was amicable, with the agreement expiring and they parting ways amicably. There was no need for property division.
These past three years have simply been a matter of each side getting what they need.
From now on, let's part ways peacefully and wish each other well.
...
Qin He quickly obtained all the information about the kidnapping case, including the address of the residential complex, and retrieved the keys from the property management.
Li Tingxi opened the door himself, his hopeful expression vanishing when he saw the empty room—not only had no one ever returned, but it was clear that no one had ever lived there at all.
Su Youling's luggage, which she had moved from the Li Mansion, was not completely organized, indicating that she had left for Chenzhou in a hurry.
She was always so serious and hardworking when it came to her work, but he never took it seriously. He took it for granted that everything she did was what Shen Xiyue should do, and that she had to do the same!
In fact, Su Youling owes neither the Shen family nor him anything.
She was abandoned by the Shen family, but because of her adoptive mother, she was controlled by someone else and had to accept another person's fate. During these three years, she was harassed by him in every way and completely lost herself in her docility.
A closer look at the luggage reveals how much Su Youling wanted to sever ties with him—she didn't take anything related to him from the Li Mansion.
Even the jewelry, clothes, and gifts he had given her over the years... she left them all at the Li Mansion.
This is Su Youling's world; it has nothing to do with him anymore.
Suddenly, everything around him seemed extremely offensive. Anger gradually built up in his eyes until he smashed everything he could find. Only then did the suppressed anger in his chest subside and recede.
He couldn't just give up like that; Su Youling's world needed him!
"Have you found out who took Su Youling away?" Li Tingxi asked Qin He, his face extremely gloomy.
"No, the police have no leads either. The only person who saw that person, Chen Yu, is still seriously injured and unconscious." Qin He said cautiously, "President Li, I checked the assets under Madam's name, and they are all managed by a man named Wei Ning. The kidnappers took Madam's assets to sell them, but Wei Ning intercepted them in time and exposed their whereabouts, which is why they were arrested by the police."
“This Wei Ning is a skilled hacker, and it seems he and Madam have known each other for a long time. I checked the security footage at the building entrance; he took Madam’s bag and phone today and then disappeared without a trace. I think he probably knows where Madam is, and that she is perfectly safe now.”
The implication is that Su Youling simply doesn't want Li Tingxi to find her; in this vast sea of people, no matter how hard they search, they won't find anything.
Unless Su Youling herself is willing to appear.
"Where could she run to!" Li Tingxi understood the implication in his words, his face turned extremely ugly, and a cold aura condensed around him, as if freezing everything in an instant, making it difficult for people to breathe.
"Go to the sanatorium immediately and have someone keep an eye on Su Hong. As long as she's still there, Su Youling won't go far." Li Tingxi was about to rush to the sanatorium when he received a call from his mother before he even got in the car.
"Tingxi, what happened to Shen Xiyue? Wasn't she in Chenzhou? Why did she suddenly return to City A and end up in the hospital?"
Li Tingxi's face darkened, and he felt strange. "Mom, how did you know she was hospitalized?"

?
Before Su Youling's matter is settled, Shen Xiyue cannot appear in public. Therefore, he arranged for her to stay in a private hospital, guarded by his people inside and out. Apart from the Shen family couple, no one else is allowed to visit.
There was no reason for my mother to know so quickly.
Mrs. Li said unhappily, "It's all because of that lunatic Li Qidong who suddenly came over and asked me in a sarcastic tone if I wanted to visit my daughter-in-law! I don't know what his relationship with Shen Xiyue is, but he knows all about her whereabouts. Even I, as her mother-in-law, didn't know she was hospitalized, but he, an outsider, knows everything!"
"Li Qidong!" Li Tingxi gripped the steering wheel tightly, his face suddenly turning icy cold. If Li Qidong were standing in front of him now, he would probably be torn to pieces in an instant.
His sudden decision to visit Shen Xiyue likely stems from prior knowledge of Su Youling's kidnapping. He finds the appearance of another 'Shen Xiyue' in his life strange, so he deliberately seeks to gauge Li's mother's attitude in an attempt to uncover the truth...
From this perspective, Su Youling's kidnapping is definitely related to him!
I was too lenient with Li Qidong in the past, which gave him the opportunity to set his sights on Su Youling!
"Mom, don't pay him any attention." Li Tingxi suppressed his murderous intent and said in a cold voice, "Shen Xiyue was kidnapped and injured while dealing with matters at the Chenzhou factory. She was hospitalized overnight last night. Li Qidong is definitely involved in this!"
He curled his lips into a cold smile, his murderous intent rising suddenly. "This time, I will make Li Qidong pay double the price!"
Li's mother was completely confused.
But seeing that Li Tingxi was finally willing to join forces with her against Li Qidong, Li's mother was much relieved. "Then you need to hurry back. Li Qidong knows that you've arranged for someone to stay in a private hospital, and he's already gone there to cause trouble. He's acting crazy and even brought paparazzi with him. I wonder what kind of tricks he's up to this time!"
Qin He, who was standing nearby, also overheard these words and whispered, "Oh no! President Li, Li Qidong brought paparazzi to visit you in the hospital. He must have guessed that there was something fishy about Madam's identity and deliberately made a big fuss to put you in a difficult position. Old President Li is unconscious. If Madam's substitution for another man is exposed now, it will definitely affect your status and reputation. At that time..."
At that time, Li Qidong will definitely make a big fuss about Su Youling, causing Li Tingxi to lose all credibility in the industry, and then take the opportunity to return to the Li family to seize the family property and retaliate against Li Tingxi and his mother.
Li Tingxi slammed on the brakes, his face extremely grim. "Mom, you must go and stop Li Qidong. We absolutely cannot let him see Shen Xiyue."
Mother Li was puzzled. "Why? Is there something about Shen Xiyue that she's ashamed of?"
Now that things have come to this, Li Tingxi can no longer hide the truth from his mother: "The person I married is not Shen Xiyue; the one lying in the hospital now is the real Shen Xiyue."
"What? What's going on?" Mrs. Li was startled. She pondered the tongue twister several times before finally understanding its meaning, her face changing color with shock. "Li Tingxi, this is serious..."
She took a few deep breaths. Although she hadn't gotten the full story, she had a pretty good idea of what had happened. She quickly ordered someone to drive the car and rush to stop Li Qidong.
"Then what are you still doing outside? Come back immediately and stop him. Only your appearance can calm Li Qidong down."
Looking at the distance on the navigation, Li Tingxi knew he could reach the sanatorium in just a few minutes; perhaps Su Youling was there…
She might be utterly disappointed in him right now, even harboring extreme resentment, wishing she could disappear from his world immediately.
Only if he sees her in person can there be any chance of things being salvaged.
