Chapter 490 Thank you, 800 million
I heard what Qiao Xi said.
Lu Yingxue's hands, hanging by her sides, slowly flexed and clenched into fists. Her pupils constricted slightly, but the smile on her face didn't fade at all.
She said softly, "Miss Qiao, I don't quite understand what you mean. If it's Lu Yan's fault, then I apologize again on his behalf and on yours."
Qiao Xi slowly pulled the corners of his mouth.
"When the Lu family does something wrong, can you just apologize and solve it? That's more effective than legal provisions."
Lu Yingxue looked a little surprised. "Tonight's race was agreed upon by both parties and a life-or-death agreement was signed. Does Miss Qiao think it's all Lu Yan's fault?"
Qiao Xi's almond-shaped eyes flashed with sarcasm: "You know what I mean. From the time I entered the imperial capital to the Guan family's birthday banquet, and even to tonight's car race, your Lu family has never stopped Lu Yan's misdeeds."
Lu Yingxue smiled gently, her fair face filled with helplessness. "My father and I have been busy at the Chinese medicine hall these past two days. I really don't know what Lu Yan has done. Besides, this is all one-sided talk from you, Miss Qiao. I don't know whether I should believe it or not."
She spoke in an elegant manner with a unique rhythm.
Coupled with this ethereal and clean appearance, it is very credible.
Even Lu Yingxue's admirers standing by couldn't stand it anymore and spoke up to defend her.
"People in Haicheng just have no quality!"
"You're so arrogant! You're throwing all the dirty water on the Lu family. Miss Lu has a kind heart that wants to save the world and is compassionate. She didn't do anything wrong, so why are you holding her back?"
"Miss Lu is willing to speak to you in a kind way and apologize on behalf of Lu Yan. I've already given you a lot of face. Don't be so shameless!"
They are eager to take credit in front of their loved ones and criticize others in a flurry of comments.
Sun Weimeng put his hands on his hips and shouted loudly: "She really thinks she is a fairy and that she can write off everything with just an apology! This young master was beaten like this, and the Lu family didn't even say a word! Her reputation is bigger than my butt!"
"No matter how much you lick my boots, I'm still going to marry the one I love!"
He criticized them from all angles, leaving them speechless.
Vulgar words leave people speechless.
On the other hand, Lu Yingxue's expression did not change at all.
Instead, she calmly said to Qiao Xi, "Miss Qiao, it seems you and your friends are quite hostile to me. Is it because of the needle testing conference?"
Her gentle words aroused the imagination of many people.
Everyone knows that Lu Yingxue became famous in a battle ten years ago, and she is now the most popular person.
Some people predicted that she would still win the championship in this acupuncture competition because Lu Yingxue's medical skills were unparalleled.
Qiao Xi is a fledgling traditional Chinese medicine apprentice who is forced to participate in the needle trial meeting.
According to the old rules, the consequences of losing were severe: a lifelong ban from practicing medicine and the removal of tendons. Even if the tendons were later reattached through surgery, there would still be sequelae.
At least I can't hold the needle steadily.
If she loses, it means her entire future will be ruined.
Therefore, Lu Yingxue shifted the conflict to Qiao Xi with just one sentence, leading everyone to misunderstand that Qiao Xi was holding a grudge against her and kept pestering her because she was going to lose.
Qiao Xi pursed her red lips and watched Lu Yingxue perform.
Lu Yingxue comforted her generously, "Miss Qiao, you don't need to feel so stressed, and don't underestimate yourself. As a disciple of a traditional Chinese medicine doctor, you must be highly skilled. Perhaps I would even lose to you."
Praise to death.
Lu Yingxue's admirers nearby all had unconvinced expressions on their faces, muttering how it was possible for Lu Yingxue to lose to a despicable villain who relied on his master to become famous.
Qiao Xi lowered her head slightly and smiled faintly: "Miss Lu, are you afraid of losing?"
Lu Yingxue maintained a polite smile on her face. "Winning and losing are normal in life. There are always people better than you, and I'm still far behind many of my seniors. The Needle Trial Conference is just an opportunity for us young people, and I cherish the opponents I meet."
Qiao Xi's cold gaze fell on her. "I thought you were afraid of losing. You couldn't wait to get rid of your opponent before he even entered the arena. It seems that my master Cheng Han is a real threat to your Lu family. So great that you are afraid of losing to me."
That's why there was a fire in the clinic.
When Xiang Huai was on the verge of collapse, he said it was his cousin's idea.
His only cousin is Lu Yingxue.
Lu Yingxue's tongue tip touched the roof of her mouth, her brows slightly furrowed, and her heart twitched slightly.
She actually found out.
She had clearly warned me not to let the news leak out.
But so what!
The case of the fire at Cheng's Clinic in Haicheng has been closed.
Lu Yingxue looked at Qiao Xi and spoke gently, "Miss Qiao, I'm looking forward to competing with you at the Needle Trial Competition. I'll excuse you tonight. I need to go check on my cousin's injuries."
After saying that, she left slowly.
She acted like a fairy from beginning to end, seemingly polite and courteous to her admirers, but she always had a hypocritical and compassionate temperament.
Sun Weimeng sneered.
"They can't even compare to Guan Jingtan's finger. I really don't know why some people call them the two beauties of the imperial capital. It's obvious that Guan Jingtan is the most outstanding one."
Young Master Sun has seen a lot of the world and women, and can tell good from bad at a glance.
No matter how superb your acting skills are, they are useless compared to him.
He has a talent for looking at women.
Qiao Xi looked at Lu Yingxue's back and thought about her reaction, which made her more certain that she was the one who caused her grandmother's death!
Lu Yingxue!
Lu family!
She must defeat Lu Yingxue in the needle trial competition, have a seat in the Chinese Medicine Association, and break the Lu family's say in Chinese medicine.
Step by step, the Lu family's authority and reputation were eroded.
Qiao Xi's hands slowly dropped to her sides and clenched into fists. Xu Yunye reached out and held her fists, and they looked at each other.
He was one of the witnesses of the tragedy that night and understood Qiao Xi's pain even better.
Grandma Qiao can be considered as his grandmother.
Xu Yunye said hoarsely, "Don't worry, justice will prevail. One day, the thunder will strike the hypocritical Lu family and tear everything apart."
Qiao Xi nodded heavily.
She believes it!
Sun Weimeng yelled from the side, "What are you still standing here for? Go exchange your chips! We won, 80 to 1!"
"etc."
Qiao Xi stopped him, "I need to confirm one thing."
Sun Weimeng scratched his head and said okay, watching Qiao Xi take out her cell phone and search for something, while Xu Yunye waited patiently by the side.
A few minutes later, Qiao Xi turned off the phone screen and said, "Let's go and exchange the chips."
Sun Weimeng happily reached out and pulled Qiao Xi and Xu Yunye towards the club entrance, noisily dispelling the depression in Qiao Xi's heart.
He slapped the receipt on the gambling table and said, "Boss, exchange the chips! I should give you 80 million! Xu Yunye, I'll give you 10 million when I get the money. This is what you deserve."
Master Qian, the second-generation rich man who opened a gambling house, originally wanted to use Lu Yan's influence to make money and show his kindness to him.
At first I thought Qiao Xi and Sun Weimeng were here to donate money for charity.
Who would have thought that Xu Yunye could actually make a comeback!
Now I have lost everything.
He had just given Sun Weimeng 80 million with great difficulty.
Qiao Xi placed the receipt for one hundred million in front of him.
Her eyes were clear and shining: "Thank you, eight hundred million."
This was the largest sum of money she had ever handled!
