Chapter 234 Others visit the sick, he visits the grave
The car drove to Haicheng Hospital.
On the way, Lao Chen got off the bus and bought a big bunch of chrysanthemums.
Qiao Xi was confused and didn't know why Huo Xingzhou brought her to the hospital to vent his anger.
Really?
A light bulb went off in her head, and she suddenly thought of a possibility.
Her clear eyes fell on the man. The man in a suit and tie held her hand with one hand and walked forward with a bouquet of flowers in the other.
The two walked through the corridor into the inpatient department and took the elevator directly to the VIP ward on the 22nd floor.
"Mr. Huo, you brought me here..."
"To get treatment."
There was a glimmer in his eyes, concealing a coldness.
"Qiao Xi, don't be afraid. I really brought you here to treat your illness, and I will bear any consequences."
Qiao Xi nodded heavily.
They stood at the door of the ward. Even with the door half-open, they could still hear the sound of someone inside making a phone call.
Xiang Huai was lying on the bed, proudly announcing the good news: "On the first of next month, the Xu family will hold a birthday party to announce my engagement to Xingluo. Everyone come and support us."
He couldn't wait to announce the good news to the world.
He finally got the woman of his dreams, and such a marriage would bring immense benefits to the Xiang family. His father, who had always looked down on him, came to Haicheng in person to attend the banquet.
Xiang Huai forced a smile, but his eyes instantly turned cold when he thought of Huo Xingzhou.
He has no chance of entering the imperial capital.
He will find a way to unite with the imperial capital's aristocratic families to suppress the Tianyuan Group, making it impossible for him to reach the top in his lifetime and for him to hide in Haicheng and become a local emperor.
Bang.
The door of the concierge was suddenly pushed open.
Xiang Huai was startled.
When he saw Huo Xingzhou and his wife appear in front of him, his eyes seemed to be filled with poison.
"Huo Xingzhou, how dare you come to see me!" His front teeth hadn't been filled yet, and his voice was leaking. His once majestic demeanor had become ridiculous.
Huo Xingzhou placed the bouquet of chrysanthemums on the head of his bed, and moved a chair for Qiao Xi, motioning her to sit down.
Then he said, "Why should I be afraid? You can justify killing people, and I haven't done anything wrong."
"You...you were the one who leaked the photos in my phone! You are shameless!" Xiang Huai had lost all his composure. He looked even more ridiculous with a bruised face and hospital gown.
The young master of the past had no temperament at all.
He couldn't help but sneeze twice.
Huo Xingzhou's brows were distant and his voice was slightly deep: "Then you are not grateful to me for bringing you and Xu Xingluo together?"
"you……"
Xiang Huai was lying on the hospital bed, furious. He gasped to calm down his anger, "The Xiang family and the Xu family will marry, and our Xiang family will become even stronger! I really have to thank you for this. I will treat you well when you go to the imperial capital!"
The hospitality he mentioned was definitely not a kind gesture.
"You're too polite. You should recover from your injuries as soon as possible. Going to the Xu family banquet with a pig-like face is really embarrassing for Xu Xingluo."
Xiang Huai was almost irritated to the point of vomiting blood.
The doctor said that his injury would indeed require some time to recover, and there was no guarantee that he would be fully healed by then.
"None of your business!" he yelled.
Huo Xingzhou said calmly, "We are good brothers. Qiao Xi, aren't you practicing the 'Nine Plum Blossom Needles'? Give our Master Xiang a good treatment."
Xiang Huai's pupils constricted: "What are you going to do?"
Silver needles can kill people.
He had personally witnessed his uncle Lu Bannong using a silver needle to determine life or death.
Qiao Xi is Cheng Han's apprentice. He vaguely heard the elders of the family discuss that Cheng Han and Lu Bannong are sworn enemies.
In addition, he plotted to kill Qiao Xi's grandmother.
She must be holding a grudge.
"Get out of here! Where's the nurse? Killing is illegal!" Xiang Huai tried desperately to escape, but Huo Xingzhou reached out and pressed his wound.
Qiao Xi quickly grasped a sharp golden needle and stabbed it into his mute acupoint. Her pretty face was icy cold. "You also know that killing is illegal?"
He killed my grandmother and didn't care about human life.
"Ah?" Xiang Huai opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
He looked horrified as Qiao Xi gave him two more injections. This time, his limbs were paralyzed and he couldn't move.
Only his head could move, and he shook it, his eyes showing fear.
Qiao Xi's dark eyes were filled with coldness: "Don't worry, I won't kill you."
She would not use the "Nine Plum Blossom Needles" to kill people, and would not tarnish her medical skills because of Xiang Huai.
She would not become a person like Xiang Huai who took human life lightly.
She was filled with resentment after her grandmother passed away.
Her words took on a different meaning when they fell into Xiang Huai's ears. If she wouldn't kill him, then maybe she would cripple him?
He doesn't want to be disabled!
Xiang Huai opened his mouth and tried to say something, but his vocal cords couldn't make any sound. He couldn't even ring the bell for help.
No wonder my uncle said not to look down on any Chinese medicine practitioner.
Qiao Xi inserted a long needle quickly and accurately.
Xiang Huai only felt the pain like ants drilling into his heart, tormenting him to death.
The veins on the back of his hands and neck were exposed.
"This set of acupuncture techniques is used to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis. It will be a little painful." Qiao Xi said in a calm tone, without pausing at all in the movements of her hands.
She wanted to stab Xiang Huai to death, but unfortunately she couldn't.
Seeing his painful expression, she would think of how desperate her grandmother was in the fire.
This is just interest recovery.
Twist the needle and insert it.
Twist the needle and then insert it again.
It's more than just a little painful!
Xiang Huai didn't know what kind of magic she had used, but it made his whole body ache, even more painful than the night Huo Xingzhou hit him.
But he couldn't shout out.
The torture ended half an hour later, and Qiao Xi removed all nine needles and put them in order.
Xiang Huai lay on the bed in a cold sweat, as if he had just been pulled out of the water.
"Qiao Xi, you are so vicious! You will never be as good as Xing Luo! Huo Xingzhou, you must be blind to marry such a vicious woman!"
Huo Xingzhou looked at him calmly: "Do you still have the energy to shout? Qiao Xi, go out and wait for me first."
Qiao Xi looked at him a little worriedly.
He rubbed her fingers gently and said, "Don't worry, I won't hit anyone today."
"Oh, then I just happened to go see Shu Xue."
Qiao Xi moved and left the ward.
Xiang Huai leaned aside cautiously, fear rising in his heart: "Huo Xingzhou, you can't touch me. I have the Xiang family and the Lu family's traditional Chinese medicine clinic behind me."
"Oh, then why are your hands shaking? Because you know very well that no matter how I mess with you in Haicheng, I can handle it, right?"
Huo Xingzhou sat on the stool, his long legs casually crossed, his calm black eyes looking at him.
Xiang Huai's breathing became rapid.
"Don't worry." He said in a low voice, "You are carrying a life on your shoulders, and your only destination is prison."
Xiang Huai laughed heartily to hide his guilty conscience: "Do you think I'm so stupid as to admit that I killed the old woman? Unfortunately, it wasn't your wife who died."
He looked at Huo Xingzhou provocatively.
Huo Xingzhou's gaze gradually grew colder, but his tone was calm: "On that day, you will admit it."
"Huo Xingzhou, are you kidding me? Do I, Xiang Huai, look so stupid? Who would... yawn, yawn!"
"You look stupid, like a clown."
Huo Xingzhou stood up and poked the large bunch of chrysanthemums on the bedside table into Xiang Huai's face, and the pollen covered his face.
His eyes were cold and his voice was calm as he said, "Sorry, I forgot you're severely allergic to pollen."
Xiang Huailian sneezed and felt itchy all the time.
Huo Xingzhou "kindly" pressed the emergency bell for him.
