Chapter 459 Warning
The old man was startled by his appearance, instinctively trembling. After realizing what had happened, he was furious: "Did that woman Rebecca tell you? You believe everything she says? What makes her worth all this trouble?"
Li Tingxi narrowed his eyes, increased the pressure on his hand, and lifted the old man up from the chair. "You think I'll believe you?"
The old man could no longer stand; his legs began to tremble, and he felt that his dignity had been greatly challenged.
His eyes blazed with fury as he forcefully pulled his collar back from Li Tingxi's grasp, then slumped back down in a disheveled state, panting heavily with anger: "Fool! She's just a woman, and you've been completely fooled by her without even realizing it! I told you long ago that woman is ambitious; she's trying to sow discord between my son and me so she can take over the Li Group!"
After he finished speaking, he realized that this was true. He looked at Li Tingxi with disappointment in his eyes, but he still had to put on his chairman's airs: "Let me tell you, Li Tingxi, since you are going to be manipulated by that woman and oppose me, then from now on you can forget about getting your hands on any of the Li Group's or the Li family's businesses!"
Looking at his self-righteous attitude, Li Tingxi found it laughable and actually laughed out loud: "Li Fengmin, do you really think that the Li Group is still your one-man show? Or do you think that what you said can threaten me?"
The old man's face stiffened, and he still wanted to use his own bargaining chips to negotiate with him: "Don't forget that I still have shares in the Li Group, and that Karina, her and her daughter. If you care about their lives, you'd better let Qidong go and give him some more shares in the Li Group."
Li Tingxi raised an eyebrow but didn't say anything.
The old man couldn't tell anything from his expression, guessing that he had been persuaded. So he sat up slightly, adopting an attitude of "I'm doing this for your own good." "If Qidong can make a comeback, I guarantee he won't oppose you anymore. You two brothers can work together, wouldn't that be a win-win situation? As for that Rebecca, as long as she has no designs on the Li Group, I'll turn a blind eye."
After hearing his last sentence, which sounded like a handout, Li Tingxi's eyes darkened, and his disgust almost overflowed.
He didn't mind letting the old man see the current situation, so he made a phone call to Qin He.
Qin He arrived quickly, holding a document in his hand.
With just a glance from Li Tingxi, he immediately handed the document to the old man.
The old man sensed something was wrong. He opened the document and looked at it for only a few minutes before his expression suddenly changed. He grabbed the document and threw it on the ground: "A bunch of two-faced old geezers! How dare they? I'm not dead yet!"
Qin He silently picked up the scattered documents and handed one to Li Tingxi.
Li Tingxi picked it up and shook it, looking at the old man as if he were a pitiful worm. "Compared to your bluster and clamor, I really do have evidence that you helped Li Qidong escape from prison. Li Fengmin, if you don't want to go to jail with Li Qidong, then you'd better keep your head down and not stoop so low as to lay a hand on my woman, or I will definitely make you regret it!"
The old man gritted his teeth in hatred, but still refused to admit it: "What can't I admit to what I did? You say I sent people to assassinate that woman, then you should produce the evidence."
Seeing that he didn't seem to be lying, Li Tingxi couldn't help but frown.
Could it be that the tiger really tricked him?
This is it

At that moment, one of his men came over and whispered in Li Tingxi's ear that they had searched the entire villa but had not found Li Qidong.
Li Tingxi immediately leaned down and whispered in the old man's ear, threatening, "Tell me Li Qidong's whereabouts, and I might let you live out your days in peace. Otherwise... I don't mind sending you to the island to keep my mother company. She must be very lonely by herself."
The old man's face turned pale and then red, and he glared at him through gritted teeth: "I did release the person, but I really don't know where he went. Aren't you supposed to be all-powerful? This country isn't a place where just anyone can run rampant. You can try to catch him and bring him back."
Li Tingxi didn't say whether he believed it or not. He narrowed his eyes and had no intention of wasting any more words with him. He made a definitive statement: "Since you have already fled abroad, there is no need to go back. I think this place is quite good."
He looked at his subordinates with a serious expression: "Send more people to take good care of the old man. We can't let our guard down when he's eating or using the restroom, after all, he's getting old."
After saying that, he gave the old man a meaningful look, "You've been scheming for this good-for-nothing Li Qidong for so many years. Surely he won't give up on you, his last lifeline, when he's desperate. Just stay here and wait for your precious son to walk right into our trap."
After saying that, he didn't even look at the old man's reaction, and turned to leave.
Li Tingxi certainly didn't intend to just wait around like that, after all, Li Qidong was no pushover either, and he might not actually come back to find the old man.
He planned to prepare for both possibilities, and would stay behind to continue investigating Li Qidong's whereabouts.
Before any action could be taken, Li Mufeng brought news that enraged him: "Something happened in City C. Aunt Su, Yangyang, and Xingxing were all injured, and Yangyang's old illness has relapsed."
Upon learning that Su Youling had already gone to City C and that the children and Su Hong had been discharged from the hospital and were in good condition, Li Tingxi was still furious. He immediately turned back to the villa, stormed up to Old Master Li, and without saying a word, grabbed him by the neck.
The old man hadn't recovered from the anger of being under house arrest, and now being treated like this, he almost couldn't catch his breath.
"I've already warned you, don't touch my woman and child!" Li Tingxi enunciated each word with extreme force, his eyes bloodshot, looking quite terrifying. "Li Fengmin, are you forcing me to kill you with my own hands?"
The bulging veins on his hands were proof enough of how much force he used.
"I don't know...you..." The old man gradually had difficulty breathing and couldn't utter a complete sentence. His face and neck turned a liverish color.
He struggled to pry Li Tingxi's hand off, but couldn't budge it an inch.
Seeing that the man's eyes had already rolled back, Qin He, who was standing to the side, nervously called out to stop him: "President Li!"
Li Tingxi hadn't completely lost his mind; he released his hand expressionlessly.
The old man collapsed to the ground, completely exhausted, gasping for breath. His face was covered in snot and tears, making him look like a lost dog.
Li Tingxi showed no emotion whatsoever. He walked over and pressed down on his shoulder without any politeness, then twisted his arm behind his back. He looked down at him with an absolute sense of pressure, his eyes particularly fierce. "Don't worry, everything you've done will backfire on Li Qidong. When you see him again, he might be a cripple with broken arms and legs, crawling on the ground like a dog."
