Chapter 374 As long as Li Tingxi doesn't court death
"Impossible! That woman wouldn't be that bold. Besides, I put in so much effort and time to verify everything beforehand. How could I have been tricked?" Karina gritted her teeth. "According to you, when the incident happened before, those people from the Strange Kingdom were also very panicked. It seems that Rebecca had already taken precautions against her subordinates' scheme. The final draft of the new plan must not be made public..."
“It’s no use saying all this now.” Zhao Chuang thought of Li Tingxi’s ruthless and cold-blooded appearance and said anxiously, “President Li has made it clear that he wants the beauty but not the country, and he even said that I should resign.”
He took out his phone, opened the video, and handed it to Karina. "Our Yitao didn't even have the right to go on stage this time. This big boss gave flowers and hugs after the speech, and was busy flirting with his rival afterward... Ms. Karina, although I didn't reveal your name to President Li, he'll find out about his methods sooner or later."
Karina stared coldly at the video, her face ashen, her lowered eyes filled with icy chill; it was impossible to tell what she was thinking.
Zhao Chuang's eyes flashed. "Everyone originally thought that you and President Li were the real couple, and that Rebecca was just a mistress who rose to power. But now that President Li has shown us... President Ka, you've lost both your wife and your army this time, and you've done all the work for your rival!"
"Shut up!" Karina slammed her phone down on him, gritting her teeth as she said, "Whoever laughs last laughs best. Rebecca, she can't win!"
"Then I'll wait and see." Zhao Chuang gave a faint smile, whether it was sarcasm or something else, and silently picked up his phone, turned and left.
As soon as the door closed, Karina went berserk, smashing everything she could get her hands on, chewing on the name 'Rebecca' as if she wanted to tear her to pieces.
After a while, she calmed down, picked up her phone, walked to the window, and coldly dialed a number.
"The money has already been transferred, how much longer do you need to prepare?"
The voice on the other end was using a voice changer, carrying a sinister chill: "The life you want is not simple. If you want to get away unscathed, you'll have to plan carefully."
"I can't wait any longer," Karina said coldly. "Add one more..."

"One million dollars. I want her dead within a day."
There was a moment of silence on the other end, then a sudden laugh: "Alright, the world is vast, but the sugar daddy is the greatest."
After hanging up the phone, Karina gazed at the bright sunshine outside the window, a dark cloud settling in her eyes. "I don't care who you are, if you're in my way, you'll all die!"
Just a door away, Zhao Chuang took off his headphones and smiled with satisfaction.
After leaving the hospital, he returned to his car, his previous dejection and anxiety completely gone. He made a phone call and said solicitously, "Chairman Li, it's all taken care of."
at the same time.
Sitting in the car, Old Master Li looked up at the silent Li Mansion, a strange chill creeping onto his lips. "Li Tingxi shouldn't have been such a womanizer, making a fool of himself and lowering his own worth for a woman."
"Since he's determined to break ties with me, let's teach him a lesson and let him taste the agony he felt five years ago."
When Li Tingxi is in a state of misery like he was five years ago, that will be the perfect opportunity for him to make his move.
...
That night, dark clouds covered the sky.
"It looks like it's going to rain." Wen Xi helped all the drunk team members into the car, then turned to Su Youling, "Have you booked your plane tickets?"
"Yes, Yueyue has cried several times. If I don't go back and check on her soon, the three little rascals will cause a huge commotion." Su Youling's mood brightened when she mentioned the children. "The bidding meeting will be over soon, and the review results will take some time. We'll do our best and leave the rest to fate. What happens next is beyond my control. I should go back and spend some time with the children."
Wen Xi didn't step on the gas, but tapped the steering wheel. "You..."
"Have you told Li Tingxi you're planning to go back to Atlanta? Knowing his personality, if you run away without a word, he'll probably think you're going to repeat the tragedy of five years ago, and what if you go crazy and cause another huge uproar?"
Su Youling "..."
I almost forgot.
She coughed lightly and said helplessly, "It's not that serious. I've just been so busy lately that I forgot to mention it."
"So you remember now?" Wen Xi turned her head and asked with a smile, "Should I drive you home, or should I take you to the Li Mansion?"
"I want to go home and get a good night's sleep." Su Youling wanted to go home and have some peace and quiet, so that things wouldn't feel like they were dating.
Wen Xi pursed her lips, stepped on the gas and drove away, but not very fast.
Su Youling looked out at the dark night. Thinking about returning to Atlanta tomorrow, she knew that Li Tingxi might really go crazy if she didn't appease him beforehand.
Moreover, he had been exhausted for several days, and I wonder if he had taken a good nap when he got back.
Several hours have passed, and I haven't received a single phone call or text message.
This is really unusual.
There are no servants in the Li mansion, so if he were to die suddenly, no one would know.
"Ahem, just drop me off by the roadside," Su Youling said seriously. "I left something at the Li Mansion earlier, and I'm going to retrieve it to give to the kids."
"I don't believe you for a second." Wen Xi skillfully turned the steering wheel around. "Baby, with that expression, you don't need anyone to chase you anymore. You've already fallen for someone, haven't you?"
"A stirring of hope? At most, it's just a second spring for a cancerous plant." Su Youling stopped pretending and lay sprawled out in the passenger seat. "I just don't want to make things difficult for myself anymore. As long as Li Tingxi doesn't do anything reckless, living like this isn't so bad."
Wen Xi scoffed and offered no comment.
While they're saying "let's live our lives," when will these two stop...

Is it like slapping people in the face with dog food (a Chinese slang term for public displays of affection) about love?
They are happy without even realizing it.
She was too lazy to remind her.
Given Li Tingxi's past record, it's best for Su Youling to maintain a basic level of vigilance.
After delivering the person to the Li residence, Wenxi tactfully left.
The lights were off inside.
When Su Youling went in, it was pitch black inside, and the desolation was somewhat eerie.
She could faintly hear intermittent sounds coming from the master bedroom. She found it strange, and when she pushed the door open, it was still completely dark inside. There was a large bulge on the bed.
"Su Su! No..." Those intermittent voices were like his nightmares, drifting in the dark light and shadow, sounding especially heartbreaking.
She remembered what Li Tingxi had said before—he would always dream about the scene of him diving five years ago, and was repeatedly tormented and tortured by nightmares.
At the time, although I was surprised when I heard about it, it was nothing compared to the shock of seeing this scene with my own eyes.
“Li Tingxi?” Su Youling turned on the light, walked to the bedside and glanced at him, then froze in shock.
Li Tingxi was huddled in the blankets, covered in cold sweat, his cheeks flushed, his body trembling slightly, and his lips were white, dry, and chapped.
Do you have a fever?
Su Youling reached out and touched his head; it was so hot it could steam an egg.
Fortunately, she ran over.
Otherwise, would this guy be burning up and passing out in bed, only to wake up tomorrow as a complete idiot?
Su Youling hurriedly tried to wake him up, but before she could pull her hand away, he grabbed it. "Su Su!"
Li Tingxi suddenly opened his bloodshot eyes, the fear still lingering within them.
The force with which he gripped her was so great that it almost broke Su Youling's hand.
