Chapter 720: Breaking off the Engagement
Lu Yingxue lifted her hair and asked with a seductive look.
"Is it true? Otherwise, you wouldn't be so cold to Zhao Shuyuan. You have so many women outside and even have children. Zhao Shuyuan didn't even make a fuss with you. It's obvious that she is guilty and has no right to care about you."
Zhong Lingxiao's expression was indifferent. "Is it important?"
"It's important, can you tell me?"
Zhong Lingxiao's expression darkened. "She and Zhong Yi just stayed in the same room for one night. My dad drugged them."
Lu Yingxue smiled and said, "That's probably what happened. No wonder you care so much."
Zhong Lingxiao sneered a few times, while Zhao Shuyuan cried and shouted that nothing had happened and Zhong Yi hadn't touched her at all. However, Zhong Lingxiao still felt a knot in his heart because his wife had spent a night with his illegitimate son.
If there was no real sex, what about hugging?
Was there a kiss?
But the news leaked out, and Zhong Lingxiao could no longer divorce Zhao Shuyuan.
If they get divorced, then this matter will be confirmed.
"A fairy like you who grew up eating dew also likes gossip?" Zhong Lingxiao was obviously a little unhappy and said sarcastically.
Lu Yingxue looked at him and said, "Just asking casually. The free clinic is tomorrow. Have you made all the arrangements? Huo Xingzhou will definitely take security measures. Ordinary methods will be useless."
She stretched out her slender fingers and poked his chest. "Tell me, how do you teach Qiao Xi a lesson?"
"I won't use such despicable tactics. Just be good tomorrow. A scheme that's too obvious will seem deliberate.
The most urgent task is to improve your reputation. Your position in the field of traditional Chinese medicine has been threatened since Qiao Xi arrived in the capital. Zhong Lingxiao's face darkened. "Find an opportunity to break off the engagement with Zhong Yi."
Lu Yingxue pulled at the collar of her nightgown and said, "Are you so anxious to break off the engagement between Zhong Yi and me? To be honest, you and I really have a tacit understanding."
She slowly leaned against his chest, her red lips slightly parted. "I want to use Ye Ying as an excuse to break off the engagement with Zhong Yi. I want to say I can't stand him having a mistress, and then declare to the public that I'll repay my medical career with my own life and never marry. Then, my reputation will naturally soar. Who can compare to my piety?"
She wants to marry a Chinese medicine practitioner, not a man.
Who doesn’t follow it?
No matter what peak she once stood at, she is now about to reach a higher level.
Zhong Lingxiao just likes her cleverness.
Some things don't need to be explained, they become clear at a glance.
Zhong Lingxiao twisted the cigarette butt in the ashtray and casually put his arm around her waist, "One more time."
"It all smells like cigarettes. No wonder the quality is so bad. They even smoke and drink alcohol in private. Lin Xifei is so lucky to be pregnant."
"Don't worry about it. When Zhongyi returns to the old house to recuperate, you must let him go to see the King of Hell as soon as possible."
"Great! It just so happens that I've disliked him for a long time. Who told him to love that little bitch Qiao Xi?"
Lu Yingxue smiled and went with him into another downfall.
…
the next day.
Huo Family Garden Villa.
Qiao Xi opened her eyes and looked at the ceiling to wake herself up.
Only then did he turn around quietly and look seriously at Huo Xingzhou who was sleeping with his eyes closed.
rare!
He hasn't gotten up to work today.
Qiao Xi glanced at the clock on the wall and saw that it was exactly six in the morning. The phone on the bedside table ticked and the screen lit up.
That was Huo Xingzhou's cell phone.
Qiao Xi moved her seat and leaned into his arms.
Huo Xingzhou pulled her into his arms without even opening his eyes. His voice was a bit sexy and low, "Sleep a little longer."
"I still have to go to the square for free medical consultation today."
"The free clinic starts at nine o'clock, there's still time."
Huo Xingzhou kissed her on the cheek.
Qiao Xi reminded softly: "I just saw that there is a new message on your phone."
"Let me see." Huo Xingzhou reached out and took the phone, opened the screen and saw the latest photos.
He did not hide it from Qiao Xi, but showed it to her.
"This is a photo of Lu Yingxue and Zhong Lingxiao leaving the hotel. Did they just leave this morning?"
"Um."
"How daring! Aren't you afraid of being discovered by Zhong Yi? You actually waited until dawn before leaving."
Huo Xingzhou laughed. "In their minds, what's the difference between Zhong Yi being dead and Zhong Yi being alive now? They think they have a sure win and Zhong Yi can't turn things around."
He was seriously injured in the hospital, but the old man didn't care.
The important projects in his hands were lost one by one, and Zhong Yi felt that the situation was really hopeless.
Qiao Xi took a deep breath, opened the quilt and said, "I should get up and go to the hospital first. I want to tell Ayi about this, is that okay?"
"Um."
Huo Xingzhou did not stop him, "I'll go with you."
Qiao Xi nodded.
She got up and went to the bathroom to wash up. While brushing her teeth, she could faintly hear a slight vomiting sound.
Huo Xingzhou heard the noise and took out his phone and pressed the shortcut key: "Xiaoyuan, make some hot and sour food to stimulate the appetite this morning. Qiao Xi hasn't had much of an appetite lately, so don't add too much chili, just enough."
He hung up the phone, threw back the quilt, got up and went to the cloakroom to change his clothes.
Then go to the bathroom to wash up.
Half an hour later.
The two of them went downstairs.
The air was filled with a sour and spicy smell.
Qiao Xi just felt her appetite was whetted.
"Madoka, what did you do this morning?"
"It's hot and sour noodles, improved to suit your taste. Madam, please try it."
"good."
Qiao Xi sat at the dining table, looking at two bowls of delicious hot and sour noodles and said, "Jiaojiao and Sun Weimeng haven't gotten up yet?"
"Yes, Miss and Young Master Sun said they'll get up later. Just get to the square before nine o'clock, and we won't go to the hospital with you."
"Okay. Xiaoyuan, have you made the medicinal meal I prepared for you last night?"
"It's already stewed there. It will be almost ready when you finish eating."
Qiao Xi looked at her happily, "Xiao Yuan, I'm so lucky to have you. You're so good at making medicinal food. You can do it with just a little guidance."
"Young Madam, you taught me well. I also learned so many medicinal food recipes from you. This is a great bargain for me." Xiao Yuan said with a smile, and went to the kitchen to get some side dishes and a few fried eggs, which were just right with the hot and sour noodles.
Qiao Xi picked up a handful of sweet potato noodles with chopsticks, and her mouth was watering.
The acidity is just right and the spiciness is not overpowering.
The food wasn't very greasy in the morning, so Qiao Xi ate most of it.
Seeing this, Huo Xingzhou raised the corners of his lips slightly: "Eat slowly. Tell the kitchen what you want to eat next time. I'll accompany you to try those different snack flavors."
"Um!"
Qiao Xi nodded heavily.
After breakfast, the two of them went out to the hospital. Huo Xingzhou was holding the jar of medicinal food in his hand, with a calm expression on his face, but he was no longer jealous.
Qiao Xi felt much more at ease.
But just as the two of them were walking to the door, Wan Jiang was standing in the corridor, looking at them with an attitude of wanting to say something but stopping himself.
It seems like he has a lot to say.
