Chapter 620 Deadly Move
Such intense resentment and anger made Su Youling involuntarily take a step back, her heart filled with pity. "Professor, none of us expected Ye Qing's death. You were deceived by Carlos..."
"Shut up! Do you think I'd still believe your lies now?" Professor Richard glanced at his watch and gave a sarcastic smile. "Did you think I planted explosives or some other deadly trap in Qingqing's room?"
“You’re wrong! What I want is for you to willingly admit your mistakes and die… The real explosives are buried at your son’s hiding place. In half an hour, if you and Li Tingxi’s bodies cannot remain here, then you can wait to collect Yangyang’s body.”
Su Youling's face turned ugly, and she subconsciously opened the door to rush out.
The moment her finger touched the doorknob, a jolt of electricity shot through her, forcing her to instinctively let go and take a step back.
"What did you do?" she demanded.
"Now that you're here, this is your final resting place. You can't leave." Professor Richard walked to the window, his gaze fixed on the direction of the horse farm. "Qingqing's time to be driven to her death is fast approaching. Call Li Tingxi immediately, or I'll make your son pay for my daughter's life!"
His weathered eyes were filled with resentment and murderous intent. "Someone among you will die."
"You've really gone mad." Su Youling never expected that Professor Richard, who was such an upright and rational person before, would become so difficult to communicate with in such a short time, as if he were possessed.
It's probably all thanks to Carlos.
That unpredictable fellow is indeed not to be underestimated.
No wonder Madam Ferro only sent him to seek revenge. His killing power is steady, accurate, and ruthless. If used properly, he could probably rival a mercenary group.
Thinking of this, she clenched her fists and looked worriedly in the direction of the horse farm—Li Tingxi, Wen Xi, we must rescue Yangyang as soon as possible.
"Make a call." Professor Richard suddenly appeared in front of Su Youling like a ghost, shoving the phone in her face, his eyes filled with a terrifying sense of oppression. "I don't have the patience to wait any longer."
He took out a timer remote and made an explosion sound effect, saying, "If Li Tingxi doesn't come to his death in ten minutes, then don't blame me."
"No!" That shout seemed to explode in Su Youling's heart. She tried to snatch the remote control, but as soon as her fingers touched it, she was struck away by a strong electric current.
He was completely saddled.
Is it even possible to make it work?
Upon closer inspection, she noticed that Professor Richard was wearing a special glove on his right hand, presumably to insulate against electric current.
It seems impossible for her to escape or stop Professor Richard from detonating the bomb... To deal with a madman, she has no choice but to take a desperate gamble.
"Hehe, you don't really think it was Li Tingxi who drove Ye Qing to her death, do you?" Su Youling suddenly laughed triumphantly. "Professor Richard wants revenge, but why doesn't he even know who he's after?"
"What do you mean?" Professor Richard's face tightened. "At a time like this, you want to use such a stupid method to protect Li Tingxi? Do you think I'll believe that?"
"I'm doing this for your own good. We're both parents, and I understand your love for your daughter, just as I could die for my own son." Su Youling silently calculated the time, sitting cross-legged on the ground without making a sound, as if...

Time gave up the struggle. "If you want to avenge your daughter, you should at least find out who her lover is and who her enemy is. Otherwise, your daughter will not rest in peace even in the afterlife."
Professor Richard was a renowned physician of our time and a staunch believer in science.
He was clearly not a superstitious person, and in his earlier years he even scoffed at the idea of 'reincarnation' and 'the netherworld'.
But for some reason, when he heard Su Youling's meaningful words today, his heart skipped a beat, and he felt a slight wavering.
"What exactly are you trying to say?"
"Professor, you didn't even notice Ye Qing's love for Li Tingxi?" Su Youling asked in surprise. "It seems you really don't understand or care about your daughter at all. Ye Qing and I had no interaction before, so why did she target me in every way after we met, even going so far as to hire someone to kill me and harm my child with Li Tingxi?"
Professor Richard clenched his fist. "What?"
"Professor, isn't it strange that Ye Qing kept insisting that she had to finish dealing with company matters before she could go on the trip with you? Because at that time, she tried to harm my child, which violated my taboo. In order to help me get revenge, Li Tingxi took action against the Ye Group, leaving Ye Qing in a terrible predicament..."
Professor Richard thought about how anxious and depressed Ye Qing was during that period, and the strange interactions between her and Su Youling in the hospital. It seemed that all the clues could be connected.
Seeing the wavering in his eyes, Su Youling forced herself to continue fabricating a story: "Ye Qing deeply loves Li Tingxi, so she is jealous of me and hates my child with Li Tingxi even more. All she did was to get Li Tingxi."
"And I certainly wouldn't be merciful when dealing with a love rival. On the ship that day, Li Tingxi originally didn't intend to harm Ye Qing because of your life-saving grace to Yangyang."
“It was I who secretly signaled to the bodyguard to distract Ye Qing and cause her to fall into the sea in a daze… I was just doing what a mother should do. The last thing she should have done was hurt Yangyang. Professor, just like you are now doing something against your own life principles to help Ye Qing get revenge, we are all doing it for our children.”
This unusual method of self-destruction and suicidal persuasion successfully attracted the professor's attention, making him temporarily forget about urging Li Tingxi to come and die.
"Did you really kill Qingqing?" Professor Richard walked toward Su Youling in a daze, as if he had suffered a huge blow. "I saved your son, why won't you spare my daughter's life? You vicious, venomous woman."
Su felt a strong chill run from the soles of her feet to the top of her head, and her heart suddenly started pounding—the professor's emotions were starting to get out of control.
However, she had managed to buy time and increase the chances of Li Tingxi and his team's rescue operation succeeding. Giving up now would mean all her previous efforts were in vain!
"If I let her go, who will let my son go?" Su Youling's face was tense as she silently retreated, searching for a temporary safe haven. "Professor, theoretically speaking, Ye Qing drowned himself at sea. It's not our fault..."
"Shameless scoundrel!" The professor suddenly rushed towards Su Youling like a madman, grabbing her throat tightly and saying with bloodshot eyes, "I'll send you to apologize to Qingqing right now."
Su Youling felt a wave of terrifying suffocation wash over her, but her eyes were fixed on the remote control in the professor's other hand—no! She had to get rid of this damn thing as soon as possible to eliminate any possibility of the professor 'changing his mind at the last minute'.
