Chapter 376 You Don't Love Him at All
But this time, Li Tingxi frowned and said, "If you have a headache, go see a doctor. I don't know how to treat illnesses, why would I come to see you?"
"What...Tingxi!" Karina exclaimed incredulously. Not only did he show no remorse, but he was also mocking her?
This attitude is definitely influenced by the plagiarism incident this afternoon.
It must have been that vixen Rebecca who whispered in his ear!
"Tingxi, did Rebecca say something to you that made you misunderstand that I plagiarized her design?" Karina had originally planned to explain this to Li Tingxi in person.
Anyway, she had dealt with all the problems that needed to be addressed, so no one could find any flaws.
"Huh?" Li Tingxi's feverish mind processed for a moment—wasn't Rebecca his Su Su?
"She wouldn't even bother mentioning you to me," he retorted, looking displeased. "My relationship with you is completely innocent, what could Su Su possibly misunderstand?"
As he spoke, he squeezed Su Youling's small hand, gave her a silly smile, and his loyalty was written all over his face, as if he was afraid that people would misunderstand.
"Su Su?" Karina gritted her teeth in anger, her voice rising unconsciously. "Tingxi, wake up! Rebecca isn't Miss Su. She looks similar, maybe she had plastic surgery to look like Miss Su, and she was just trying to get your attention from the start..."
"Miss Karina has such a vivid imagination, it's a pity she's not a detective!" Before Li Tingxi could hang up the phone, Su Youling suddenly spoke up, "These days, the cost of spreading rumors is low, so you can speak without restraint? Adults should be responsible for every word they say."
"You? Rebecca? You're with Tingxi?" Karina looked at the clock on the wall. It was already late at night, time to go to bed, but she was with Li Tingxi!
Did she stay overnight at the Li Mansion again?
This vixen is really cunning; she managed to completely outsmart Li Tingxi with just her pretty face.
"You heard me, so I'll be blunt," Karina said coldly. "It's common knowledge that Li Tingxi is still hung up on his deceased wife."

"Secret, you've heard about that face of yours more than once, haven't you? Rebecca, you're also a princess, why are you willing to be someone's substitute?"
Her expression hardened, a chilling glint in her eyes. Every word she spoke was like a steel needle driving nails into the enemy's heart. "Hearing Tingxi call you 'Su Su,' I don't believe you won't be angry! True love involves possessiveness. Otherwise, Su Youling wouldn't have ended up like that with Li Tingxi..."
"You're so calmly pretending not to hear about Su Youling's existence, and still getting entangled with Tingxi. Unless you don't love him at all, and you approached him with an ulterior motive in the first place, and you're using him!"
These words were directed at Rebecca, but also at Li Tingxi.
Li Tingxi's expression immediately changed. "Karina, are you looking for death?"
He already had a high fever and a terrible headache, so this long, scathing speech sounded like a buzzing of bees to him.
The noise made him very annoyed.
I wish I could sew that woman's mouth shut so she wouldn't continue to sow discord!
"Who I'm with is none of your business. Who do you think you are?" Li Tingxi coldly questioned. "Don't force me to kick you out right now."
"Tingxi, how could you treat me like this for a vixen?" Karina's heart skipped a beat, and a surge of grievance and jealousy welled up inside her, instantly flashing in her eyes.
She always thought that even if she couldn't compare to the former Su Youling, she was still just a dead person.
Among a crowd of people, Li Tingxi always treated her specially.
Even if they occasionally get angry or have disagreements, she always finds a way to soften his heart and make him come back.
Unexpectedly, a mere Rebecca could make him so heartless.
If he really knew what he had done... he would probably turn on him immediately and leave no room for leniency.
A chill suddenly ran through Karina, and she began to shiver involuntarily as she huddled on the hospital bed. "Tingxi, I'm sorry... I was just confused in my panic. I didn't mean to target Rebecca, and I didn't dare to interfere in your affairs... Please don't be angry with me, okay?"
Li Tingxi kept a straight face, impatient to listen to her speak.
If it weren't for the fact that Su Youling was listening with great interest, he would have hung up the phone immediately to stop the noise.
"I apologize to Rebecca! I'm sorry!" Karina said firmly, sounding very sincere.
The dramatic change in his attitude left Su Youling in awe.
In the past, she used this trick to control Li Tingxi.
Su Youling scoffed, "Karina, there's more than just this one thing you should apologize for, isn't there?"
"Rebecca, I'm innocent about the design draft." Karina's eyes were filled with murderous intent, but her tone became increasingly guilty and pitiful.
“I really didn’t know about this. I was involved in the design of the project team at the beginning, but the first draft was not the current version. Later, Tingxi asked me to leave Yitao Culture, and I lost contact with the project team. Naturally, I didn’t know how far the design draft had progressed.”
"This time, it's because Tingxi and Chairman Li had a falling out. In a fit of anger, he made me continue to take on the Shouyi Pottery Culture case, originally intending to give Tingxi a warning. Although I didn't want to go against Tingxi, I didn't dare to disobey the old man's wishes, so I had no choice but to bite the bullet and take on the task."
"I only got this design draft this morning. The project team assured me that there would be no problem. You know I'm not that professional in art and design. I only know that the concept is ingenious, so I didn't think much about it."

Karina's explanation sounded perfectly logical: "I really didn't expect that this design was plagiarized! I had someone investigate as soon as I found out about it, and I will definitely give you and Tingxi an explanation."
Su Youling raised an eyebrow.
It seems that it won't be so easy for her to find out the traitor.
However, anything done will inevitably leave traces.
The matter of the design draft cannot be left unresolved.
Li Tingxi lost his patience. "Hurry up, I'm waiting for your explanation."
Then, he hung up the phone.
He looked at Su Youling with sparkling eyes, expecting praise, as if he were completely worthless. "Su Su, are you satisfied?"
"Satisfied, close your eyes, and I'll reward you with something good." Su Youling smiled mysteriously, coaxing Li Tingxi to obediently close his eyes, and even tilt his head up expectantly.
Is this a puppy asking for a kiss?
I'm almost going crazy from the fever.
Su Youling quietly got out of bed and went downstairs to find the first-aid kit according to the location in her memory. She didn't expect that not only was the surface layout of this place exactly the same as the original Li Mansion, but even the commonly used items were placed in the same way.
She found the fever reducer and boiled some water to bring it over.
I thought Li Tingxi would get impatient and wander off, but when I entered the room, I found him asleep again, his face flushed and covered in sweat.
It's quite badly burned.
She quickly gave Li Tingxi fever-reducing medicine, and when she took his temperature, it was over 39 degrees Celsius. Her expression immediately changed.
I originally intended to force him to go to the hospital, but after thinking about his tearful plea, I changed my mind.
Su Youling paid a high price to arrange for a private doctor to come to her home.
After tossing and turning for most of the night, it was almost dawn when she finally managed to get Li Tingxi's high fever to subside.
