Chapter 633 Li Qidong Escaped
“But if you don’t win the championship, you will have to compensate me tenfold for all the support I’ve given you during this time,” Ding Muyan said. “So, if you have the confidence, I can prepare the contract right now.”
I thought Su Youling would at least hesitate for a moment, but to my surprise, she simply packed up the invitation and said, "Okay, then let's sign the contract."
"You...aren't you going to consider it? Tenfold compensation, totaling several hundred million. As far as I know, your studio's investment has already reached its limit," Ding Muyan said.
"Don't worry, Mr. Ding. If I dare to sign, I'm confident of winning. You trust me so much, how can I lack confidence in myself?" Su Youling smiled slightly. "If we don't win the championship, I'll compensate you for your losses even if I go bankrupt. A promise is a promise."
Ding Muyan glanced at her in surprise, "You've changed a lot since then. You're still brave, but your courage and insight are far beyond what they used to be."
If it were Su Youling back then, with her limited status and position, she would have to be cautious and consider all aspects before she could speak or act, and she certainly wouldn't have dared to go to such lengths.
However, if a businessman wants to stand out in the vast sea of commerce, he must dare to take risks. If he is conservative and timid, he will never be able to create a new world.
The current Su Youling exudes a confidence that is truly captivating.
“Okay, I’ll have my secretary prepare the contract right away.” Ding Muyan agreed readily and got up to make a phone call.
Su Youling rubbed her aching lower abdomen, probably from drinking too much alcohol... She gestured to Ding Muyan, then pushed open the door to go to the bathroom.
Just after I finished taking care of my physiological needs, Li Tingxi called.
Su Youling answered the phone while washing her hands. "What's wrong? I'm out discussing work and won't be home for dinner tonight. Didn't I send you a message?"
"Where are you discussing work? With whom?" Li Tingxi's tone was strange, and his seriousness made Su Youling somewhat displeased. "Is this some kind of check-up, or is it restricting my personal freedom? Li Tingxi, are you at it again, or are you repeating your old tricks?"
She was already on edge dealing with Ding Muyan, and now she inexplicably got an upset stomach, so she was feeling a bit irritable.
There was a moment of silence on the other end, and the breathing became somewhat unusual.
Su Youling realized that she had overreacted and implicated innocent people, and felt embarrassed and uneasy. "I'm sorry, I don't know what happened to me just now. My mind was just a mess, and I was a little irritable... Maybe I drank too much."
She took the initiative to be friendly, "Li Tingxi, the new studio needs to expand its market, so I've partnered with Ding Muyan. We're having dinner at the Moonlit Club tonight. But don't worry, we've already talked quite a bit. If you're not busy, could you come pick me up later to go home?"
Li Tingxi paused, and then, after hearing what the person next to him said, his tone became even more urgent, "Wait for me there. Don't wander around. It's best to stay in Ding Muyan's private room and not go anywhere else. I'll be right there."
"Okay, I'll wait for you..." Su Youling's dazed mind suddenly cleared up, and she realized something was wrong. "What's wrong? Did something happen? Why are you so nervous?"
The two have been getting along very well lately, and with the children mediating between them, they are increasingly feeling like a family, and they are arguing and fighting less and less.
Tonight was the first time they almost started a fight. Su Youling keenly sensed that something was wrong with her emotional shift and also felt Li Tingxi's tension and unease.
"Susu, don't be afraid."

"But we must be vigilant." Li Tingxi ordered Zhou Lang to speed up the car, saying, "Li Qidong has escaped."
"What?"
“That guy is a master actor. He’s been suffering under Yan Qinghe’s methods lately, pretending to be dead and resigned to his fate. Until Yan Qinghe’s men lowered their guard, he colluded with the people outside and disappeared without a trace.” Li Tingxi gritted his teeth and snorted. “Yan Qinghe planted a tracker on him, but the signal disappeared an hour ago.”
“The signal at the time indicated that he was in the city center, and he had not left the city yet, so he would definitely seek revenge on me and my family.”
“The Li mansion is heavily guarded, with Zhou Ming personally leading a team to watch over it. Our mother and child will be fine. But you didn’t bring any bodyguards today, only Wen Xi and an assistant. That’s too much of a vulnerability. With Li Qidong’s methods, he will definitely target you.”
He paused, noticing the silence on the other end of the line, and his voice tightened, "Su Su, are you still with Ding Muyan?"
“I’m in the restroom outside the private room, it’s very close.” Su Youling also became alert, quickly wiped her hands and walked out. “This club has a high level of privacy and good security. There are bodyguards guarding Ding Muyan’s private room and the elevator entrance. If Li Qidong escaped, he wouldn’t dare to be too blatant and shouldn’t be able to break into the customer area…”
She hurried back to the private room, and just around the corner she could see the bodyguard standing at the door. "Don't worry, I'll be right back and wait for you to come and get me..."
Before he could finish speaking, a terrifying, chilling aura suddenly approached.
Su Youling paused, then instinctively turned around and threw a punch.
The person quickly sprayed something directly at her face.
Even if Su Youling reacted quickly, she couldn't keep up with the speed at which the pungent liquid entered her nose. A strong sense of dizziness immediately washed over her, and her legs went weak, causing her to collapse.
"Don't be afraid." The man took off his mask, bent down and picked Su Youling up in his arms. He looked up at the camera in the corner with a cold expression and smiled provocatively. "Sister-in-law, I still have a great use for you. At least I won't kill you now."
“Li Qi... Dong…” Su Youling stared in shock at the man’s almost ulcerated face. It was probably an infection from the burn wounds that couldn’t be cured due to the medication, making it look extremely ugly and terrifying.
This face no longer resembles Li Qidong's original appearance, nor does it show any signs of Yan Siyue's plastic surgery. Only those sinister eyes remain terrifyingly sinister.
"Long time no see." Li Qidong looked at the ugly reflection in her eyes, his smile becoming even more sinister and terrifying. "I never thought that you could still recognize me at a glance after I've turned into this ghost. Anyone who didn't know better would think that you were truly in love with me."
"You can't escape." Su Youling wanted to shout for help to attract the attention of the bodyguards, but when she opened her mouth, she found that her voice was so hoarse that she could only make a breathy sound, which could not carry that far at all.
So she could only try to distract him by talking while secretly tapping her phone behind her back, attempting to notify Li Tingxi...
The next moment.
Li Qidong slammed the phone to the ground and crushed it.
"No need for you to notify him, Li Tingxi will be here soon." The sound of Li Qidong smashing his phone caught the attention of the bodyguards on the other end, and soon footsteps could be heard. "Who's over there? Come out!"
Li Qidong sneered, picked up Su Youling, and quickly slipped into the stairwell.
