Chapter 537 She made a move on Lu Yingxue
"Cousin, do you remember how we often slept together when we were little? My uncle was very strict with us, so we often hugged each other and cried. We would cry until we fell asleep, and then get up the next day to continue studying acupuncture. So many years have passed in a flash..."
Tears welled up in Xiang Mingzhu's eyes. "I really miss my childhood. There weren't all the intrigues and power struggles that I'd face when I grew up. It seemed like everything was so beautiful... It would have been so nice if I didn't have to grow up."
Her words directly hit the softest spot in Lu Yingxue's heart.
She was trained as the heir of the Lu family, and her father had higher expectations of her.
She wants to be perfect in every way, she wants to be famous in the imperial capital and even the whole country, she wants to become the female Hua Tuo of the world!
She wants to take control of the Chinese Medicine Association and leave her name in the history of Chinese medicine.
Become an unshakable existence!
Lu Yingxue's eyes revealed some emotion: "Since you were born into a large family, you must understand the responsibilities you shoulder. Mingzhu, now is not the time for you to act willfully. After the needle testing conference, we will all be better!"
Xiang Mingzhu nodded: "Cousin, can I still sleep with you? The Xiang family is empty, and I'm a little scared. After tonight, I will be stronger. Let's make our family better together! Let the Lu family become the dominant force in the field of traditional Chinese medicine!"
Lu Yingxue glanced at her and said, "I'll ask the servants to clean up the room. You can stay here."
Since Xiang Mingzhu has surrendered, she also knows that the Xiang family cannot survive without the Lu family.
Then she'll give you some sweet treats.
"Thank you, cousin."
Xiang Mingzhu looked at her happily.
But I was thinking of Zhong Yi in my heart.
Once she wins the first prize in the needle-testing competition, she will be able to marry Zhong Yi! Then, the Xiang family will be able to overcome the difficulties, and her father will definitely be happy!
Although the Xiang and Lu families are as close as one family, there is still a difference between a biological daughter and others.
Why do we have to let others say that the Xiang family relies on the Lu family? Can't it be that the Lu family relies on the Xiang family?
Xiang Mingzhu secretly made up his mind!
She wanted Lu Yingxue to be respectful to her and enjoy being flattered!
She has had enough of being a slave for more than 20 years!
Tomorrow is her turning point!
…
The next day.
The final round of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Festival.
The most mysterious venue of the Chinese medicine clinic is open and can only accommodate a thousand people.
The audience shrank instantly!
The venue was also very quiet.
The Chinese Medicine Association also selected the media for the live broadcast, all of which are major TV stations, to ensure that there will be no false or exaggerated reports.
This also makes the third round of test questions shrouded in mystery, making them even more difficult.
As ten o'clock approached, the audience was very quiet.
The nine contestants for the final round have all arrived, with one person still missing.
The audience murmured.
"The fever won't go away. I guess he won't be able to come."
"Instead of coming here to be humiliated, she might as well stay home. If she loses, the Chinese Medicine Association will demand her immediate punishment. How can she escape?"
"It's a pity for that Chinese medicine apprentice, considering her excellent performance in the last round. If she hadn't been injured, I really want to see her strength."
"No one can compare to Lu Yingxue's steadiness! After all, Lu Yingxue has been practicing medicine longer than her. Now that her arm is burned and she has a high fever, there's no comparison! Sometimes, people still rely on luck."
If you have bad luck, no matter how strong you are, it’s all in vain!
Shen Xuanzhi stood in the competition arena, looked around, and saw the gorgeously dressed Huo Sijiao.
She stands out too much.
She stands out in the crowd.
Those eyes seemed to be shining and smiling at him.
Shen Xuanzhi avoided his gaze, only thinking of the good relationship between her and Qiao Xi. Even Huo Sijiao was there, so it was impossible for Qiao Xi not to come.
But the big clock hanging on the wall had already shown nine fifty-five.
There are five minutes left and the third round is about to begin!
If the time limit is not reached, it will be deemed as a forfeit!
"Shen Xuanzhi."
Xiang Mingzhu wore a simple long dress with a large white Australian pearl on her neck. Even her hairstyle was done very delicately, as if she was on a fashion show.
Rather than participating in the competition.
When she got up early, she told Lu Yingxue that if she couldn't beat her cousin today, she would just treat the competition as her showcase.
It also made Lu Yingxue feel more at ease with her.
At this moment, she looked at Shen Xuanzhi and sneered contemptuously: "You are not waiting for Qiao Xi, are you? Don't wait, she won't come. If she knew she would lose, she would never show up. If she loses, no one will pity her, and she will bring shame upon herself."
Shen Xuanzhi glanced at her and didn't take her words to heart at all.
"Shen Xuanzhi, neither you nor Qiao Xi can win today. The Shen family's bird-pecking technique has long been thoroughly studied by my uncle, and even I can achieve 80% of it. You're not still dreaming of taking first place, are you?"
Xiang Mingzhu is particularly hated today, perhaps because she is too proud.
Shen Xuanzhi's face turned cold, and he whispered, "You are the least qualified to mention the Shen family's sparrow pecking technique. No one can compare to the Lu family in terms of shamelessness."
"Shen Xuanzhi, what nonsense are you talking about!"
Xiang Mingzhu glared at him coldly.
Shen Xuanzhi turned his head coldly and ignored her.
Wasn’t his father’s death related to the bird pecking technique?
How many of Lu's Thirteen Ghost Gate Needles were created by himself, and how many were integrated with the essence of other schools?
Only Lu Bannong knew.
What a despicable hypocrite.
Xiang Mingzhu snorted coldly and raised his head proudly.
She pursed her lips and looked at Lu Yingxue beside her, and found that her eyes were on Zhong Yi in the front row of the VIP seats.
Xiang Mingzhu felt even more uncomfortable.
But when she thought about what she had done to Lu Yingxue this morning, she felt a little relieved.
Zhong Yi loves her, and his relationship with Lu Yingxue is just a casual affair.
When she wins the first prize today, she will be able to enjoy everyone's shocked expressions!
Xiang Mingzhu walked over to Lu Yingxue and asked with a hint of joking in her heart, "Cousin, do you think Young Master Zhong came here specially to watch your competition?"
Lu Yingxue smiled reservedly, "Why not? Last time, Grandpa said we'd get engaged after the needle testing conference."
Xiang Mingzhu smiled deliberately: "Then congratulations in advance, cousin. I hope you can win the first prize."
Her eyes fell on Lu Yingxue, with a meaningful look.
Judging by the time, it’s almost time for it to take effect.
She also wants to marry the man Lu Yingxue wants to marry!
There can only be one young lady in the Zhong family!
That's Xiang Mingzhu!
Lu Yingxue didn't pay too much attention to her expression, but instead focused her eyes on the clock hanging high on the white wall.
Time passes by little by little.
The minute hand has moved to 59 minutes.
Qiao Xi probably can't come.
She originally didn't want to attack Qiao Xi again, but her father said that she had to be absolutely sure.
So they sent something to Qiao Xi to disturb her mind. It is not known whether Qiao Xi saw the new messages they sent while she was "having a high fever".
The smile on Lu Yingxue's lips grew wider and wider. What an unchallenging competition.
Sudden.
There was a commotion in the audience.
