Chapter 355 The Uninvited Guest
Come to think of it, the two of them have known each other for so long, been married and broken up, gone through so much ups and downs, yet they've never had a serious date even once.
Li Tingxi prepared very carefully.
Candlelight dinner, romantic piano music.
He was wearing a black, fitted suit, but he had taken off his jacket, revealing a well-tailored silver-gray shirt underneath, the buttons undone below his collarbone, and the cuffs rolled up half an inch, exposing his muscular forearms…
He sat gracefully in front of the piano, his fingers nimble and his gaze affectionate, his whole being exuding the charm of a peacock courting its mate.
Lyrical music, moving performance.
Bright flowers, handsome people.
Everything was just right, perfectly embodying the unique romance that belongs solely to Su Youling.
When Li Tingxi gets all charming, who wouldn't be captivated?
"How was it? Did you like it?" After the song ended, Li Tingxi strolled over.
With jet-black hair and dark eyes, a wasp waist and long legs, an aura that seemed to stretch for miles, and a face so handsome it could bring ruin to a nation, he radiated an irresistible allure under the dazzling lights of the crystal lamps.
The restaurant was cleared out tonight, otherwise it would have caused quite a stir.
However, the waiters were so envious that they almost fainted, but their high-quality service ensured that they did not disturb the guests' dining experience.
Su Youling suppressed the flutter in her heart and coughed lightly, "Are you out of your mind? Did Su Daji suddenly change her gender?"
It took Li Tingxi a moment to realize that the words were a compliment, so he laughed heartily and lowered his head to kiss Su Youling's lips. "Wife, if you want to compliment me, you can be more direct like this. You don't have to beat around the bush... But I also like your shy and timid manner."
A gentle kiss, deep and lingering, tender and moving.
Su Youling suspected that Li Tingxi had secretly taken the ultimate course in love these past few days, otherwise how could he have suddenly become so good at flirting?
A while ago, he was oblivious to his own greasiness and proud of his madness; every strange thing he did was unacceptable to others.

I would rather keep my distance from them.
On the contrary, after spending the last few days together, we've gradually become more harmonious.
This person gradually returned to normal—a cold, lone wolf in public, a clingy, affectionate dog in private.
Sincerity is the ultimate weapon.
She could even tolerate his occasional jealousy and temper!
She thought about many things in a daze until she was almost out of breath, then she nudged Li Tingxi.
Seeing that he remained unmoved, Su Youling gritted her teeth and kicked him without any mercy, saying, "We're still in a restaurant, have some shame! Behave yourself!"
Li Tingxi winced in pain, but his expression remained unchanged. He leaned down and whispered in her ear, "Does leaving the restaurant mean I can do whatever I want?"
"It's not even dark yet, and you're already dreaming?" Su Youling picked up the steak, didn't even cut it, and stuffed the whole piece into his mouth. "Eat your meat, you talk too much nonsense."
Li Tingxi grunted, watching her expression before acting, and returned to his seat with a satisfied bite of his steak, grinning with a roguish air, "Listen to your wife, and you'll get meat."
This roguish yet charming look is actually much more pleasing to the eye than his usual cold and ruthless self.
Su Youling thought she might be drunk from the honey water, and her eyesight was failing her.
After finishing her meal, Su Youling wanted to go home.
Li Tingxi insisted that Su Youling take him back to the Li Mansion or go home with him, citing a headache and the need for someone to take care of him.
Su Youling's face darkened. "Li Tingxi, I only agreed to give you a chance. Don't push your luck. I've said before, it's not impossible for you to sleep with me, but..."
"Stop!" Li Tingxi helplessly covered her mouth to stop her chattering.
Her incessant little mouth said, "I just want to see you more, so that when I wake up from the nightmare, it's all gone and I don't feel like it's all unreal."
His expression was so serious and earnest, as if he were attending the founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China, that no one could doubt the sincerity of his feelings.
As if guided by some unseen force, Su Youling nodded.
By the time she realized what was happening, the car had already driven off.
Li Tingxi even cheerfully played a light and pleasant Italian symphony.
Su Youling "..."
Since we're here, let's make the best of it.
There's nothing she can't handle now.
If Li Tingxi dares to do anything reckless, she'll just consider it like she slept with a male prostitute for free.
Wake up, dust yourself off, and leave.
The Li Mansion remained as quiet and desolate as ever.
“Before, I was always alone when I came back, the cold wind blowing in the dark night was so cold it hurt my bones.” Li Tingxi unbuckled her seatbelt, then suddenly pecked her lips and said in a hoarse voice, “I often see you standing at the door smiling at me as soon as I open the door, but when I want to reach out and hug you, to kiss you, the illusion disappears.”
The melancholy and sorrow in his eyes were palpable.
Su couldn't muster any energy, didn't want to be so clingy, and was even less willing to get angry and say hurtful things at this moment.
That would shatter the peace that the two of them had worked so hard to build.
With a flash of light in her eyes, Su Youling suddenly smiled, grabbed Li Tingxi's cheeks with both hands, and pinched them hard, like petting a big puppy, showing no mercy.
"Now, am I awake? Or was I hallucinating?"
"Ouch! Go easy on him." Li Tingxi felt both pain and pleasure as he suddenly bent down, picked the person up, and carried him towards the door.
"Hey, put me down. It's not like my leg is broken, what are you doing?" Su You

Ling frowned, the sudden feeling of being lifted into the air making her hurriedly wrap her arms around Li Tingxi's neck.
"Holding you makes me feel more at ease." Li Tingxi's words calmed Su Youling down.
These past few days, Li Tingxi's direct attacks have been so frequent that she's finding it hard to keep up.
If Li Tingxi is insincere and pretentious, or even if he remains aloof and silent as before... she has ways to deal with him.
However, when Li Tingxi laid bare his true feelings and expressed his emotions openly, Su Youling felt fear and unease, unable to adapt yet unwilling to push him away.
Just then, the door opened.
The light was on, though.
There are people inside.
Li Tingxi paused, his face immediately darkening.
Su Youling was stunned for a moment. "What's wrong? Who...?"
I turned my head and was met with two gloomy faces.
Old Master Li's face was gloomy, and there was still a simmering anger in his eyes. When he saw Su Youling, he was stunned.
Karina, standing to the side, was tense, her face seemingly calm, but her eyes were burning with jealousy.
What a wonderful Rebecca!
In just a few days, she's already gained access to the inner chambers of the house!
She thinks she's something special just because she's a stand-in?
Su Youling straightened up, raised an eyebrow, took in the expressions of the two people, and remained silent.
Li Tingxi was the first to question, "What are you doing here?"
Karina snapped out of her daze and walked over first. "Tingxi, something happened at headquarters. The chairman was worried and rushed to City C despite his health. He wants to discuss with you... some company secrets."
She glanced at Su Youling.
The unspoken message is—you, an outsider, should leave.
