Chapter 357 Then you marry her
Zhou Yu speculated: "This is too strange. Is it possible that Shen Xuanzhi accepted two payments during this special period? We paid him for help, and others can do the same. We are not the only ones who can take advantage of the rules of the Needle Test Conference."
His mind raced as he said, "I suspect it's the Liu family. What do you think?"
Huo Xingzhou said calmly, "Are you always so clueless about evidence? The Liu family is a possibility, but it could also be someone else. Keep investigating. I want to know who it is."
What is the other party's purpose? Is he targeting Shen Xuanzhi or Qiao Xi?
He wants to know everything.
Huo Xingzhou would not allow any other hidden risks around Qiao Xi.
"Okay, I get it. And you asked me to look for the person who saved my life ten years ago, but I haven't found any clues yet. I wanted to start with the rescue phone number, but ten years is too long to find any. I can only go to the travel agency back then to get the list of tourists."
Zhou Yu explained, as he was afraid that Huo Xingzhou would blame him for his inefficiency.
But he made a wrong judgment at the beginning and even went in the wrong direction.
"Well, no rush."
Zhou Yu exclaimed: "You're not anxious? I thought you were anxious. That's right, you're focused on your wife right now, how can you spare the attention for anything else?"
The tone was sour and even a little sarcastic.
Being jealous.
Huo Xingzhou said with a hint of sarcasm: "As long as you want to get married, there will be someone who can marry you right away."
Zhou Yu was like a cat whose tail was stepped on, "What do you mean by that?"
"Whatever you think it means."
Zhou Yu came back to his senses: "You...you know about Shu Xue and I? You and your wife have been laughing at us all the time. Huo Er, you are so mean! This is too much. We are being played like monkeys by you."
"Who's being fooled by whom?"
Huo Xingzhou's tone was a little cold. "You have no self-control at all. Who do you think you can hide this from?"
Zhou Yu was so shameless that he felt a little embarrassed: "When... did you find out that Shu Xue and I were together?" He needed to know how long he had lost face.
"Horse farm."
"What? A horse ranch?"
Zhou Yu was shocked: "Huo Xingzhou, you are so mean! You actually knew about our affair so early, why didn't you tell us?"
Huo Xingzhou mocked: "After all, it's fun to watch a monkey like you act."
Zhou Yu was almost angry to death, but he didn't dare to lose his temper with Huo Xingzhou.
He asked somewhat dejectedly, "What do you think I should do? That blind date guy is after Shu Xue's connections. He saw me and Shu Xue being intimate last time, and he still has to bear this cuckold."
He was speechless.
But Shu Xue refused to listen.
Huo Xingzhou said calmly: "Then marry her."
"But I...I don't want to get married."
Huo Xingzhou smiled faintly after hearing this. "If you can't give her a stable marriage, then what right do you have to ask her to keep her distance from others? Zhou Yu, don't want everything. A woman's youth is precious."
Zhou Yu was silent.
Shu Xue's family is very traditional and her parents require her to get married.
As an only child, she couldn't possibly go against the wishes of her elders. Qin Yuan was the best candidate for her, and even though she knew what Qin Yuan was up to, she was determined to go all out.
Huo Xingzhou was not one to persuade others, and only said, "You can take care of yourself. Please check the information of the other person who sent the money to Shen Xuanzhi for me."
Then he hung up the phone.
Zhou Yu was still feeling sad about the passing of time, but he never expected Huo Xingzhou to turn around and assign him another task.
…
In the bustling night of Haicheng.
Li Songwen was drunk at the hotel bar.
He didn't even make it to the primary round of the needle test meeting, and has become a laughing stock among his peers. Many people say that he deserves it and has a bad character. He had to target Qiao Xi, and this is what he ended up doing.
Li Songwen drank one glass after another until the hotel staff persuaded him.
He was reluctant to leave the bar.
He was drunk and when he was walking down the corridor on his way back to his room, someone pulled him hard and dragged him directly into a room.
Li Songwen was panicked: "Who are you? What are you doing?"
He was covered with a black sack and everything in front of him was dark.
Fists and kicks rained down on him, and Li Songwen screamed in pain.
"Just wait! I won't let you go."
"Stop, it hurts!"
Li Song asked while howling.
After beating him, the other party threw him into the corridor and quickly evacuated. Li Songwen's head was swollen like a pig's head. He angrily ran to the hotel front desk and asked to retrieve the surveillance footage to find out the truth.
But the hotel said that the surveillance was broken and was under repair.
This beating was premeditated, and he wouldn't be able to get any evidence even if he called the police.
Li Songwen grimaced in pain, and went to Mingzhu's floor with a belly full of anger.
They are staying in the same hotel.
…
Xiang Mingzhu is doing skin care.
She was wearing a nightgown and applying a facial mask, thinking of Zhong Yi in her heart. When she thought of Zhong Yi, she couldn't help laughing.
As long as she wins the first place in the needle testing competition, she will have everything she wants.
The phone beside the bed rang. Xiang Mingzhu walked over and saw that it was the Lu family's call. Her romantic thoughts disappeared instantly. Xiang Mingzhu pursed her lips and picked up the phone.
"Hello."
"Ms. Xiang, I'm Ms. Lu's assistant."
"What's up?"
Xiang Mingzhu was feeling uneasy. She swallowed nervously, and at the same time, she was disgusted that Lu Yingxue only let one assistant contact her.
Do you really look down on her?
"Miss Xiang, the Lu family is very dissatisfied with your performance in Haicheng. You actually lost the competition and publicly admitted that the Thirteen Ghost Gate Needles were inferior to the Nine Plum Blossom Needles, which made the head of the family very angry. The eldest lady wants you to return to the imperial capital immediately and accept the family's punishment."
The assistant's tone was commanding, which aroused Xiang Mingzhu's dissatisfaction.
"I told you, I lost to Qiao Xi, and it had nothing to do with the Thirteen Ghost Needles. Can the Lu family's current status be shaken by just one word from me? I have something else to do in Haicheng, and I'll return to the imperial capital after a while. I also need to help the Lu family find out more about Qiao Xi."
In fact, Zhong Yi was in Haicheng, and she could no longer get along with Zhong Yi like this after she returned to the imperial capital.
Lu Yingxue will definitely keep an eye on it.
Xiang Mingzhu hung up the phone in anger.
What bad luck!
An assistant dares to speak to her in an imperative tone. He must be tired of living.
Lu Yingxue really thinks she is a goddess and everyone has to obey her orders.
This time, she must snatch Zhong Yi away!
Bang bang bang!
There was a loud knock on the hotel room door.
Xiang Mingzhu frowned, walked to the door and looked through the peephole. She was suddenly shocked when she saw a man with a bruised face and nose.
After a while, I realized that it was Li Songwen!
Xiang Mingzhu opened the door impatiently, folded her arms, looked at Li Song and asked, "What's wrong with your face?"
Li Songwen stepped forward and hugged Xiang Mingzhu: "Mingzhu..."
"What are you doing?"
Xiang Mingzhu struggled and tried to push him away, but Li Songwen held her tightly.
A camera at the corner was facing them, taking countless photos from ambiguous angles.
