Chapter 530 Let Him Kowtow to You
Zhong Yi took the menu with his slender fingers and flipped through it casually.
His tone was a little lazy: "Let Wan Jiang kowtow to you."
Lu Yingxue narrowed her eyes slightly, not knowing what he meant.
Wan Jiang quickly apologized with a tearful face, "I'm sorry, Miss Lu. Master Zhong gave me this task, and I searched all the auction houses and spent two million to buy this set of gold needles. It's all my fault. I betrayed you and Master Zhong's trust."
Wan Jiang looked so pitiful, as if he really wanted to kowtow to Lu Yingxue and admit his mistake.
"Ms. Lu, Master Zhong scolded me all day for this. He even wanted to fire me..."
Wan Jiang was in tears!
He had already prepared his acting skills for this day.
Mr. Zhong is destined to be the one to take the blame, since he is the subordinate.
Lu Yingxue's face, with its snow-white skin, was expressionless. Wan Jiang's words didn't move her at all, and she felt very aggrieved.
The focus of the second round of the needle trial competition is all on Qiao Xi!
Some people praise her as the most beautiful Chinese medicine practitioner!
Praise her for her perseverance and tenacity!
Especially Huang Bingyi's comment on her, "The disciple is better than the master", made everyone have a higher evaluation of Qiao Xi!
Praise her for being as good as the traditional Chinese medicine doctors of the past!
Lu Yingxue was reading the good reviews on her phone as she came here, and her mood became even worse!
"Ms. Lu, please forgive my negligence at work! Master Zhong said that if you don't forgive me, he will send me to the northwest to dig coal!" Wan Jiang cried with tears and snot.
So pitiful.
Lu Yingxue frowned and caught a glimpse of Zhong Yi sitting indifferently beside her.
She gently held the glass, moistened her red lips and said, "You go out first."
Wan Jiang looked around and finally said "yes".
It seems that he has escaped!
He quickly ran out of the box and closed the door tightly.
Lu Yingxue's fair and smooth fingers stroked the glass, and she looked at Zhong Yi and said, "You can't blame Wan Jiang entirely for the golden needle incident. If I had been more careful, I wouldn't have made such a fool of myself."
Zhong Yi moved the chair closer, placed his bony hand on the back of her hand, and his eyes flashed.
"It's my fault. I trusted Wan Jiang too much. He was originally on my brother's side. It seems I need to test his loyalty."
A big pot was thrown on Wan Jiang again.
"Ayi, I understand your situation in the Zhong family. But now the third round of the competition is about to begin. If I can win the first place, it will also help you become the heir of the Zhong family. The old man is optimistic about you and will definitely make an announcement by the end of the year."
Lu Yingxue blinked her curled eyelashes. "We share honor and disgrace! But Mr. Huang seems to be prejudiced against me, and something went wrong with the golden needle. From all of these incidents, I don't seem to have gained anything at all."
She didn't trust Zhong Yi 100% in her heart.
She had suspected Zhong Yi's purpose, but she couldn't think of any motive.
She also didn't believe that Zhong Yi would break up the engagement between the two families, because in the past two days the old man of the Zhong family had sent many valuable things to the Lu family, saying that they were some tokens of his appreciation.
That clearly looks like a betrothal gift!
Zhong Yi slowly raised the corners of his lips, and a gentle smile appeared on his delicate and handsome face.
Those amorous eyes looked even more affectionate.
"Yingxue, I did all this for your sake. Mr. Huang has a strange temper and is stubborn. Are you blaming me for not being appreciated by him? This makes me very sad."
Lu Yingxue looked up at him seriously. "Mr. Huang and Old Master Zhong are close friends. Can you help persuade Old Master Zhong to accept me as his disciple? If I become the next successor of the Golden Needle Technique, it will be a good thing for you."
Zhong Yi secretly sneered in his heart.
This woman has a big appetite.
It's not like Xiang Mingzhu, who can rush forward irrationally just by dangling a carrot.
Lu Yingxue is worthy of being Lu Yingxue!
"Ayi, you will help me, right?"
Zhong Yi pulled his hand back and said, "I'll try my best."
Lu Yingxue smiled playfully, yet also with a hint of seriousness: "No, you have to go all out for me! I heard from the old man that we'll get engaged after the needle testing conference is over!"
It doesn't matter whether she can win the first place.
He was obviously very satisfied with her.
Zhong Yi's throat rolled over, and he said with a forced smile, "Okay."
"There's one more thing..." Lu Yingxue reached out and held his arm, very intimately.
"My father asked if he could give me the herbal medicine factory as an engagement gift? Or we could buy it for ourselves. After all, the pharmaceutical factory is very important to our Lu family."
Lu Yingxue said this, and she must take him down.
Zhong Yi understood the meaning of her words, and a hint of disgust flashed across his eyes.
Greedy.
But she said, "You don't need to spend money to buy it. It's a gift from me. I'll give it to you at the engagement party after the needle trial meeting."
As for what the situation will be like then, we’ll talk about it later!
"Yi, you are so nice to me! I originally thought that you were just playing with me, but I didn't expect that you have feelings for me." Lu Yingxue smiled gently and tenderly, but she secretly asked a private detective to check Zhongyi's past.
There is someone in the heart of the one I like.
His strongest and most sincere love was probably given to the woman whose name he called when he was unconscious.
It sounds like "Xinxin" and "Xingxing".
Zhong Yi's past is a mystery, and many people in the imperial capital want to know.
Lu Yingxue pursed her lips and leaned closer to ask, "Where did you live before Ah Yi returned to the imperial capital? I suddenly realized that I don't know much about you. I feel like a terrible fiancée."
Zhong Yi's eyes turned cold, and he said with a hint of warning: "Do you really want to dig up my past as a illegitimate child?"
Lu Yingxue was startled for a moment, then came to her senses: "I'm sorry, I just want to understand you, not to rub salt into your wounds."
"I don't want to rehash the past. I hope you won't bring it up next time."
Zhong Yi's expression paled a little and his tone became a little cold.
He didn't believe that Lu Yingxue wanted to understand him. It seemed that Lu Yingxue wanted to explore his past and try to find his weakness like Zhong Lingxiao.
These people in the imperial capital grew up in the world of fame and fortune. No matter how pure their appearance is, it cannot cover up the dirty calculations in their hearts.
Lu Yingxue curled her fingers slightly and took a tactical sip of water from the cup.
fine.
The waiter brought the food quickly, breaking the deadlock.
Lu Yingxue took the opportunity to serve food to Zhong Yi and said some soft words. The atmosphere between the two of them became much better, as if all the conflicts and temptations no longer existed.
But Lu Yingxue was determined to send more people to dig deeper into Zhong Yi's past!
That must be the ability to control his weaknesses!
She didn't want to be Mrs. Zhong, who was just a vase, but wanted to be the mistress of the Zhong family who could compete with Zhong Yi.
…
the next day.
However, a big mess broke out in the Huo family garden villa.
