Chapter 533 The Villain Accuses First
As for the large bags of luxury goods she brought, which she originally intended to use to win over Su Youling, she didn't forget to have the driver take them with her when she left.
After she left, Su Youling also put down Yueyue, who had regained her vitality after witnessing Li Tingxi "teach a lesson" to the bad woman.
She thought about it and decided it would be better to let Yueyue, the person involved, explain the whole story, so she winked at Yueyue.
It just so happens that Li Tingxi is in a bad mood right now, so it would be good to have Yueyue, the little ray of sunshine, liven things up.
Unfortunately, Yueyue misunderstood the meaning. The little girl was very good at playing the victim and acting cute. Thinking of Ye Qing's tearful and aggrieved appearance just now, she also followed suit and ran to Li Tingxi to "complain" in a pitiful manner.
"..." Su Youling watched her dramatic daughter perform to the very end, and when she mentioned Ye Qing pushing her, she cried with genuine emotion. Suddenly, all she felt was heartache for her and regret for not slapping Ye Qing a couple more times.
Li Tingxi's heart clenched as he was moved by Yueyue's tears.
You should know that Yueyue had been arguing with him for a long time, and for her to cry like this in front of him shows how much she had been wronged.
He knelt down and hugged Yueyue, carefully and clumsily wiping away her tears, earnestly promising, "Don't worry, Yueyue, Uncle Li will definitely get justice for you."
...
Ye Qing was unaware that Yueyue had once again sowed discord in front of Li Tingxi, to the point that Li Tingxi's tolerance for her had almost dropped to zero.
On her way home, she grew angrier and angrier, and when she got home and saw Professor Richard, she burst into tears without much preparation.
Professor Richard had never seen her so heartbroken before. Coupled with her disheveled appearance and the shockingly bright red handprint on her face, he was both alarmed and heartbroken.
When asked about the situation, Ye Qing naturally did her best to shift all the blame onto Su Youling and Yueyue, exonerating herself completely.
She was now filled with resentment, and Li Tingxi was not spared either.
"Dad, you've gone to great lengths to research Yangyang's treatment plan, yet they've ganged up on and bullied your daughter like this. Can you really swallow this insult?"
Professor Richard frowned upon hearing this. Even though he still had questions, seeing the swollen finger marks on Ye Qing's face and the strangulation marks on her neck, anger took over. "What do you want me to do?"
Ye Qing stared at him intently, without directly stating her thoughts: "Dad, you should know what I'm thinking. In short, I've been wronged, and I don't want Rebecca and Li Tingxi to have an easy time either."
Professor Richard frowned even more deeply and sighed softly, "I just happened to have an appointment with Li Tingxi tonight to discuss Yangyang's treatment. Once I see him, I will definitely get an explanation for you."
...
Li Tingxi arrived at the door in the evening, after dinner time.
As expected, he saw Ye Qing standing indifferently beside Professor Richard. His gaze fell on the handprint on her face, which seemed even more noticeable than when she left his residence after so long, and his eyes turned cold.
Professor Richard, heartbroken and enraged by his daughter's condition, had no interest in discussing Yangyang's illness with him. He glared at him, demanding an explanation: "Mr. Li, for such a trivial matter, you actually treated Ye Qing so cruelly! I only have one daughter, even if you..."

If you're dissatisfied with her, shouldn't you at least be a little more lenient with her for my sake?
He paused, then became even more displeased upon confirming that Li Tingxi had come alone. "Are you planning to protect Rebecca? My daughter was slapped by her, and she doesn't even dare to come and apologize. Do I have to go and invite her myself?"
Trivial matters?
Li Tingxi knew immediately that Ye Qing hadn't told him the truth. But thinking about it, he figured it was understandable. After all, she was his own flesh and blood. If Ye Qing used her injuries to cry and play the victim, he would naturally be drawn in.
Thinking of this, Li Tingxi gave Ye Qing, who was standing to the side with his chin slightly raised, clearly expecting him to admit his mistake and back down, a mocking look. Then he chuckled softly, and the next second his eyes suddenly turned sharp as he bluntly exposed, "Why doesn't President Ye tell Professor Richard why Rebecca hit you?"
After Li Tingxi finished speaking, he shifted his gaze to Professor Richard's face. "Rebecca did nothing wrong, so why should she come to apologize?"
Ye Qing's expression instantly turned unnatural, and she subconsciously looked at Professor Richard's reaction.
She didn't say what exactly happened, but so what? She was beaten, and her father had no reason not to stand up for her.
Seeing Professor Richard's suspicious look, she immediately explained, "Dad, Rebecca didn't understand the situation and mistakenly thought I was bullying her daughter. She hit me without saying a word. Actually, Yueyue was deliberately teasing me and speaking rudely to me. I didn't mean to hold it against her at all. I just wanted her to apologize in person. Who knew Rebecca would be so domineering, blaming me for her daughter's poor upbringing and mistakes?"
After sparing no effort to smear Su Youling, they were able to see Professor Richard's increasingly unpleasant expression.
She feigned embarrassment at just the right moment, glanced at Li Tingxi, and flinched slightly when she met his gloomy gaze. She still chose to continue her fabricated story: "Li Tingxi not only ignored the facts but also sided with the mother and daughter to humiliate me. I truly didn't expect Rebecca to have such a strong opinion of me. I even brought gifts to visit her, hoping to make her my friend. Now it seems I was just being presumptuous."
Professor Richard was furious. He slammed his hand on the table and glared at Li Tingxi, his voice sharp and menacing. "Mr. Li, my daughter has suffered an immense injustice! I don't condone violence, but is it too much to ask Rebecca to personally come and apologize to my daughter?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Qing frowned, looking at Professor Richard as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
Of course, what she wanted wasn't just a simple apology from Su Youling. As she expected, as long as Professor Richard used Yangyang as a threat, Li Tingxi would definitely compromise, and then he would have no choice but to nod no matter what she asked for.
Professor Richard made no attempt to use Yangyang's illness as leverage.
This left her helpless, since she was now the victim and being too aggressive would only backfire.
Li Tingxi also noticed Professor Richard's attitude, and although his mind was slightly troubled, he was unwilling to break off relations.
He softened his cold demeanor and looked at Professor Richard seriously. "You are not an unreasonable person. As a father, it is understandable that you favor your daughter, and I have no right to object. However, I still hope that you can see things clearly and not just believe Ye Qing's one-sided story."
Professor Richard's expression softened slightly.
