Chapter 690 Qiao Xi, You Ruined Me
Qiao Xi and Huo Xingzhou seemed like a match made in heaven, standing on the high platform in the middle.
The whole audience fell silent.
Zhou Yu took the microphone, tested his voice, and said, "Thank you all for coming to the dinner party to celebrate the establishment of our branch of the Imperial Capital Tianyuan Group. I am Zhou Yu, one of the leaders of the Tianyuan Group. If you have any important business in the future, you can contact me. If President Huo doesn't agree, I will act as a matchmaker for you all."
"good!"
The people below responded loudly.
"Next, please let our President Huo speak."
He handed the microphone to Huo Xingzhou, who had handsome features and a deep voice with an undeniable coldness.
"Let's not talk about the pleasantries. The business scope of the Imperial Capital branch and the headquarters is the same. But tonight we won't be discussing business, this is just for celebration."
Zhou Yu quickly patted his chest and shouted, "Come to me for official business! Everyone come to me for discussion! Our Huo family is very strict!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Huo Xingzhou glared at him.
And there was laughter from the audience.
Qiao Xi's ears flushed, and a hint of shame and anger flashed across her bright, clear eyes. Huo Xingzhou reached out and grasped her hand, leading her down the stairs.
Huo Xingzhou whispered, "I'll deal with him later."
"That's not necessary."
Qiao Xi's voice was soft and gentle. She looked at the people around her who were staring at Huo Xingzhou with gleaming eyes and said, "Hurry up and go to the social event. I have bodyguards and Old Chen following me in this banquet hall. No one is so blind as to hurt me."
At most, they quarreled.
"Um."
Huo Xingzhou looked around and was on high alert.
Old Chen also followed not far from Qiao Xi, always on guard.
Although there are a lot of people, nothing serious will go wrong.
Zhou Yu hurriedly pulled Huo Xingzhou and said, "Sister-in-law, I'll lend him to you! I've already found a way for you to contact that wealthy overseas businessman you wanted to contact before. Come here..."
"Just get busy."
Qiao Xi said as she stood there, holding up her skirt.
It's time for her to stand on her own.
As soon as Huo Xingzhou left, Qiao Xi was left alone and many noble ladies and rich girls surrounded her, all asking about the Jade Muscle Cream.
Ye Ying went to the beauty salon every day. Although the scars on her body did not disappear, they were visibly getting lighter.
What does this show!
Jade muscle cream works wonders!
Many people will be attracted by the beauty cream of Yingyue Pavilion opposite at first, but a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step!
Comparing the two, you get what you pay for!
It’s expensive for a reason, no wonder it’s limited in quantity!
The whitening effect of Yuji Cream is much better than that of beauty cream. The skin that is cared for with Yuji Cream for a long time will be radiant and white with a rosy glow.
However, beauty cream only whitens the skin, and the difference is huge when compared to the other two.
"Mrs. Huo, how long will the purchase limit at the beauty salon last? We're all lining up to get the Jade Skin Cream."
Qiao Xi said in a gentle voice, "It will take a while. We can't supply them right now. But since you've lined up, you'll definitely get a turn."
“We understand, good things just sell!”
"Yes! Luckily, I believed in the effectiveness of the Jade Muscle Cream from the beginning and have been renewing my order. Look, I still have two or three more times to go."
"Mrs. Huo, you're truly amazing. I heard there's a free clinic at the end of the month. Will you be there?"
Qiao Xi nodded: "Yes, the association arranged for me to attend the free clinic at the end of the month, still in the big square."
"Then we have to show our support!"
Qiao Xi was somewhat helpless, and smiled gently: "Everyone, please leave this opportunity to those who need help more."
"Then there's a rumor going around that you and Miss Lu are going to compete on the same stage to make up for the regrets of the needle-testing competition. Is that true?"
Qiao Xi didn't expect the news to spread so quickly. She said softly, "It's not really a competition, it's just a sparring match."
Free medical consultation is not a competition.
It’s just providing medical treatment to ordinary people with poor conditions.
But if the Lu family insists on having the competition, something big might happen on the day of the free clinic!
"Miss Lu is here today too. I've noticed she's been having a rough time lately. Young Master Zhong keeps Ye Ying, and her face is ruined. I thought she'd win the needle-testing competition, but... Madam Huo, there's a rumor going around that you and her don't have a good relationship. Is that true?"
Several ladies stared at her, wanting to hear how she would answer.
There was a faint smile in Qiao Xi's eyes. She twirled the hem of her skirt with her fingers and said, "It's true."
They didn't expect Qiao Xi to not hide anything at all, and they didn't know what to say to break the awkward atmosphere.
Qiao Xi noticed that they were uncomfortable, and said apologetically, "I'm going to the bathroom. Excuse me."
She held up the hem of her skirt with one hand and walked slowly towards the restroom outside the banquet hall, carrying a small Chanel shell bag in the other.
Seeing this, Lu Yingxue followed.
I entered the sky garden from the side door and then went around to the bathroom on the other side.
In the brightly lit and quiet corridor.
Lu Yingxue shouted.
"Qiao Xi."
Qiao Xi turned to look at her, her long, curled eyelashes trembling slightly: "What's the matter?"
In her own territory, she didn't have to worry about Lu Yingxue's revenge.
Lu Yingxue approached in her high heels, looked at her coldly and said, "I heard others say I'm inferior to you in every way. Are you very proud of it?"
She has fallen to this day, all thanks to Qiao Xi!
Even without that needle testing meeting, she would still be the most dazzling woman in the imperial capital. Even if Guan Jingtan only had beauty, she would still be just a vase!
She can get whatever she wants in the capital!
But a nemesis happened to appear.
"What do I have to be proud of?"
"Qiao Xi, you're just proud of yourself for winning first place and getting the position of vice president. So many seniors have to be inferior to you. You're just proud of my defeat, so you can be a laughing stock."
Qiao Xi learned the venomous tongue from Huo Xingzhou, "You are indeed a joke."
Lu Yingxue looked at her coldly. "My life isn't over yet, and I have plenty of opportunities to bring you down. I know you want to abolish the north-south divide, but as long as my father and I are in the Chinese Medicine Association, you won't be able to do that."
Qiao Xi blinked slowly, and when he looked up at her again, his eyes were cold.
"You didn't want me to take Cheng Qingnian away at first, but I did it."
"You and your daughter thought the championship was a sure thing, but I did it too."
"Lu Yingxue, you're absolutely right. Life is long. How do you know I can't do it?"
Lu Yingxue's face turned pale. "Qiao Xi, if you knew what happened tonight..." She stopped talking halfway.
She couldn't let the secret slip and ruin Zhong Lingxiao's plan.
Qiao Xi stared at her: "What's going on tonight?"
"It's none of your business. I just want to ask you one last question. Are you really not going to give me the Jade Muscle Cream?"
"No."
"Qiao Xi, I'm waiting for you to regret it. You ruined my face, and I will pay you with your life."
Qiao Xi sneered. Lu Yingxue might have forgotten who had ruined her face.
Crazy woman!
She walked around her and went to the bathroom, slamming the door.
She placed the small bag in her hand on the sink, took out a tissue and gently wiped the overly bright lipstick from the corners of her lips.
The phone in my bag vibrated.
It's like a death urge.
Qiao Xi concentrated on answering the phone, her face turning cold.
