Chapter 579 Changes
Feng Anhuai told Su Youling to spend time with her family and not to worry about him, then hung up the phone without showing any sign of anything amiss.
The two adults exchanged glances, realizing that the intricate connections behind Ye Qing's alliance with President Ross were likely more complicated than they had imagined.
Because of the awkward atmosphere, the children and Su Hong also sensed that something was wrong, so the family didn't stay out for long and went home.
Wen Xi and Qin He also rushed over after receiving the news, and Wen Xi was especially furious.
I still vividly remember how they worked so hard during that time, worrying about Yangyang while also taking care of this project. But then they turned on me like that, which is infuriating.
"Su Su, we have to find a way to meet that mysterious CEO Ross. Even if we don't get this project, we should still throw coffee in his face as a souvenir. That fickle bastard whose values are dictated by his looks, I really don't know what Ye Qing gave him to make him protect him like this." Wen Xi was furious.
Upon hearing this, Li Tingxi narrowed his eyes slightly. "Ye Qing was forced into a corner by me, which is why she turned to President Ross and used your project as a bargaining chip to turn the tide."
Qin He quickly chimed in, "I just received news that after the news of Ye Qing's cooperation with Ross spread, many clients here have indeed started to get restless again. Quite a few have already started contacting Ye Qing again. Even if the Li family wants to strike at the source of clients, they will probably have to suffer heavy losses themselves."
“There’s no need to confront Ye Qing head-on anymore. The Ye family has already been severely damaged, and it’s impossible for them to recover in a short time,” Su Youling said coldly. “From now on, this will be my battlefield with her.”
"Su Su, the board of directors at the company is causing trouble again. They probably received news of the project's failure and are looking for trouble. You know this project was arranged by headquarters and was the biggest investment project this year. Now it's been snatched away by the rival. They're definitely trying to find a way to get you." Wen Xi got angry as soon as she mentioned it.
Having successfully completed the art exhibition project, they had finally gained recognition for the exotic kingdom in China, and Su Youling had also secured her position in the company.
Just when Su Youling was about to realize her grand ambitions, this unexpected trouble happened.
Those restless old fogies are mostly old hands fattened up by the Ferro family. They were already unhappy that Su Youling, an outsider, was appointed CEO, so they're sure to be happy to see her make a fool of herself and cause trouble.
“They’ve been causing trouble for a long time, why would I be afraid of those old guys? They’re old rivals!” Su Youling frowned. “However, the Strange Kingdom really needs to re-plan its development after missing out on this project, and can’t hand in a blank paper at the end of the year.”
She glanced at Li Tingxi and said, "I might have to go back to Atlanta ahead of schedule to handle some work. What are your plans?"
Li Tingxi was both surprised and relieved: "You actually still remember me..."
Su Youling was speechless for a moment. What kind of injustice was this?
“I will never let Ye Qing get away with harming our son. Moreover, there are new developments on Li Qidong’s side. I was going to go abroad anyway,” Li Tingxi said. “I will contact the professor now to see how to coordinate Yangyang’s rehabilitation plan.”
Su Youling nodded in agreement.
"Then I'll contact the company and try to appease those old guys first." Wen Xi was worried that things might not go smoothly at the company, so she quickly pulled Qin He away, hoping he could help her think of a way to teach that CEO Ross a lesson before leaving.
The group had barely left when Su Youling...

The phone rang.
A series of unfamiliar phone numbers, from within the city.
Su Youling had a bad feeling about her, but after answering the phone, there was no sound for a long time. The ominous feeling grew stronger. "Who is it?"
She said coldly, "If you don't say anything, I'm hanging up."
"Long time no see, my dear best friend." A crisp laugh rang out from the other end of the phone, arrogant, smug, and extremely grating.
It turned out to be the missing Shen Xiyue!
"You?" Su Youling clenched her fists and jumped up from the sofa, her face ashen. "Chen Xiyue, you dare to call me!"
"Why wouldn't you dare? Back in China, you came here all over the place with your men, but you still couldn't kill me, did you?" Shen Xiyue said with a smile. "Speaking of which, I really have to thank Tingxi for being so considerate of our relationship and for giving me a way out time and time again. Whether I am Shen Xiyue or Karina, he treats me differently from other women."
Su Youling sneered, "You called me just to say this?"
She walked upstairs without making a sound, intending to find Yangyang to use hacking skills to locate Shen Xiyue's whereabouts and arrest her immediately.
As soon as I stepped onto the stairs, the person on the other end of the phone seemed to have a telepathic connection with me, saying, "You'd better not make any rash moves. Since I dared to call you, I naturally have something that you'll have to admit defeat with."
"Wishful thinking! I will definitely catch you and settle all scores!" Su Youling rebuked through gritted teeth. "I've let you roam free for five years, Shen Xiyue. How many lives have you taken? You didn't even spare your own mother. Don't you have nightmares at night?"
Shen Xiyue paused, then choked on her words, her face turning extremely pale. "Wait until you're dead before asking me this question in my dreams."
Without further ado, she said directly, "Rose Hotel, let's meet in an hour."
"What? You dare to come right under my nose?" Su Youling was shocked, a sense of unease crossing her mind. What bargaining chip did she have?
"You'll see when you get here." Shen Xiyue smiled slightly. "Rebecca is such a good name. She's born with a life of wealth and privilege. It's a pity she's so sickly. Who knows when she might die?"
"Rebecca?" Su Youling's expression changed drastically, never expecting the problem to lie with Rebecca. "What have you done to her?"
"Want to know?" Shen Xiyue laughed, enjoying her flustered and anxious expression. "Then come alone obediently. I don't want a third person to know about this. Otherwise—"
Before Su Youling could ask any further questions, she hung up the phone.
"Damn it!" Su Youling cursed, then quickly called Rebecca and the people taking care of her.
Without exception.
Rebecca has disappeared.
She was en route to the isolated island for her final rehabilitation treatment.
The Ferro family is unaware of this news; otherwise, they would be furious.
I don't know what Shen Xiyue did, but she managed to keep the news so well hidden without any slip-ups.
Su Youling hurriedly drove to the agreed hotel, determined to settle accounts with Shen Xiyue. However, upon opening the door to the private room, she saw an unexpected person.
"Grandpa Yin!" Su Youling exclaimed in shock, "What are you doing here?"
