Chapter 550: Cousin Covets Cousin-in-law
Zhong Yi put the teacup aside and said slowly, "Miss Xiang and I have no friendship, so how can you be so heartless?"
He raised his eyes.
Her eyebrows and eyes are calm and she looks extremely noble.
There was a hint of laziness and coldness in his sitting posture, and his tone gradually became colder.
"On the contrary, it was Miss Xiang who slandered me again and again. I wonder what you are trying to do? Miss Xiang, you knew that I was your cousin's fiancé, but you harbored ill intentions towards me. Your character is clearly revealed."
Zhong Yi's words were serious, and there was a hint of anger in his voice.
"No! That's not the case... Uncle, please help me check the surveillance! The hotel must have surveillance..."
Xiang Mingzhu cried breathlessly and begged Lu Bannong.
She and Zhong Yi are obviously together!
How can a man turn against you and be so heartless!
Zhong Yi gave them a mocking look and said, "Uncle Lu, our Zhong family will give you some time. You can immediately send someone to check the hotel surveillance. Or check if there are any signs of editing or replacement in the surveillance. Any trace of that would indicate that I am not a good person!"
Lu Bannong heard his tone was so decisive!
Then you will know that whether this so-called surveillance really exists or not, it cannot be detected!
Lu Bannong struggled for a moment and finally chose to preserve his relationship with the Zhong family.
He scolded with a cold face: "Mingzhu! You've gone too far this time. You even dared to slander Master Zhong! He's your future cousin-in-law. You can't drag him down just because of jealousy!"
"Uncle, I didn't! I'm telling the truth..."
Xiang Mingzhu grabbed Lu Bannong's hand and said, "Uncle, everything I said really happened."
Zhong Yi laughed. "Miss Xiang might need to go to the hospital for a checkup to see if she has delusional disorder. But speaking of booking a hotel room, I did stumble upon something interesting in Haicheng. I thought it was interesting, so I kept it in my memory. Miss Xiang's sweetheart is someone else, so don't let me take the blame."
"Wanjiang."
He shouted.
Wan Jiang quickly opened a video from his phone album and showed it to them, which was more than half an hour long.
At the door of the hotel room, Xiang Mingzhu and Li Songwen were pulling and hugging each other.
The angle of the shot was very ambiguous. The two seemed to be impatient to enter the hotel room. Li Songwen came out more than half an hour later.
What can be done in half an hour? Everyone present is an adult.
Wan Jiang explained, "This must have been captured by paparazzi during the preliminary round of the needle testing conference, when Miss Xiang and Li Songwen were flirting with each other. It was our Young Master Zhong who intercepted the video out of consideration for the Lu family's reputation. Everything our Young Master Zhong did was for Miss Lu! If Miss Xiang wasn't Miss Lu's cousin, our Young Master Zhong wouldn't have intervened at all."
"As for why Miss Xiang is making such random accusations, we have no idea."
"Besides, how could our Master Zhong fall for such a... shameless woman? Anyone with a discerning eye knows which one he should choose between Miss Lu and Miss Xiang!"
What Wan Jiang said also makes sense.
As a lackey, he also performed very well and his acting skills were superb.
“You…you guys…”
Xiang Mingzhu was speechless and looked at them with bloodshot eyes full of hatred.
"You all hurt me!"
Zhong Yi felt somewhat helpless and said calmly, "Well, this is the symptom of paranoia. She feels that the whole world wants to harm her."
Xiang Mingzhu looked at his ruthless appearance, and a fishy-sweet taste rose in her throat.
His emotions fluctuated so much that he fainted!
The whole person collapsed.
Wan Jiang quickly dodged, fearing that she would commit fraud.
Lu Yingxue felt disgusted, but still walked forward and patiently took Xiang Mingzhu's pulse.
Then he said, "He fainted from anger, it's nothing serious. It seems that he received too much stimulation today, so it's hard to accept it for a while."
Anyone who thinks he is going to be the champion, but then falls to the bottom, becomes a prisoner and is abandoned by the man he loves, cannot bear it.
"You guys take Mingzhu home first."
Lu Yingxue asked the bodyguard to help Xiang Mingzhu leave. She looked at Old Master Zhong and Zhong Yi with an apologetic look and said, "I'm so sorry. It's because we didn't find out the truth of the matter that Mingzhu made such a fuss."
No matter what the truth is, the current situation is the truth!
He made so many accusations against Mingzhu, but he couldn't even produce a single valid evidence!
"She is indeed seriously ill. You family members must take good care of her." Zhong Yi said calmly, "Forget about today's farce. I won't take it to heart."
"Ayi is still generous."
Lu Bannong said this with a smile, without the aggressive attitude he had just had when he came to accuse someone.
Zhong Yi looked at him with a gentle expression: "Uncle Lu, this kind of thing must not happen again in the future. If the news gets out that your cousin covets your cousin's fiancé, it will be laughable. The Lu family is a noble and famous family. You are a doctor and you can't let this kind of scandal tarnish your reputation..."
"Yes, yes. You are quite right. We were the ones who were abrupt today."
Lu Bannong's eyes flashed with shrewdness. He paused and said, "From what Ah Yi said just now, he kept mentioning our Yingxue. It seems that the two young people have a good relationship. Our Yingxue didn't live up to the expectations and didn't win the first prize, but... shouldn't the marriage between the two families be..."
He looked at Old Master Zhong tentatively, hoping that he would express his opinion and confirm the engagement date.
The Lu family lost too much in the needle testing conference, and they can't let this marriage go into trouble again!
Old Master Zhong was silent for a moment and then said, "Young people's affairs should naturally be decided by young people themselves. Zhong Yi, what do you think?"
It seems like an inquiry, but it is actually pressure.
So many pairs of eyes in the living room fell on Zhong Yi.
There can only be one answer.
No room for rejection.
Zhong Yi's eyes twinkled as he said, "Marriage is a major matter, so what can I say? The marriage arranged by my great-grandfather is naturally a good one."
Lu Bannong also breathed a sigh of relief.
At least Zhong Yi has no intention of breaching the contract!
Lu Yingxue felt much better. Having lost the leader, she couldn't afford to lose Zhongyi.
The father and daughter exchanged a look.
Lu Bannong smiled kindly, "So, what's a good date for the engagement party? I heard the Zhong family always consults the almanac and asks a master to calculate the day and time. An engagement party is a big deal, right?"
He is urging the two to get engaged!
Old Master Zhong said in a hoarse voice, "Marriage is the most important thing. Pick a good date for engagement. Let's pick the 8th of next month. There's no conflict between your zodiac signs. After the wedding, let's have a fortune teller choose an auspicious date based on your birth dates."
"Hey! I'll do as you say!"
It's the 8th of next month, so there's only a little over a week left.
The Lu family also needs to prepare well!
Old Master Zhong said calmly, "At my age, I could die at any moment. What I want most is to have a large family with many children. Once you're engaged, they'll be like family... Having more children would be the best comfort for me."
He was really afraid that the Zhong family would be extinct.
Lu Yingxue's cheeks flushed at his words, but her eyes were open and filled with anticipation: "That depends on Ah Yi. I'll naturally listen to you."
In addition to family background and intelligence, children are also an important factor in gaining a foothold in the Zhong family!
Old Master Zhong was cheered up by her and said, "You young people, go out for a walk. I'll talk to Dr. Lu about the engagement banquet."
This is to bring Zhong Yi and Lu Yingxue together, allowing them to develop their relationship alone.
Zhong Yi stood up lazily, and Lu Yingxue followed him and asked gently, "Yi, can I go to your room?"
