Chapter 547: Mr. Zhong and I are in love
He demanded, "What's going on? Why are you allergic for no reason?"
Lu Yingxue covered her cheek and rubbed it gently.
She tried desperately to suppress her emotions, her voice laced with resentment that lingered. "It was that idiot Xiang Mingzhu! Last night, she came to me to reminisce and catch up, but she used castor juice on me. It must have been in the makeup I use every day."
Xiang Mingzhu was very good at tampering with her cosmetics, and the castor juice mixed in her cosmetics was covered up by the fragrance.
She was not wary of Xiang Mingzhu, as she was defenseless!
"That brainless bastard! Why did she do that?"
Lu Bannong couldn't understand Xiang Mingzhu's motives. Their two families had been preparing for ten years and had already made an agreement. Why did Xiang Mingzhu suddenly want to take action against Lu Yingxue?
Is she not dreaming of winning the first prize?
Just relying on her mediocre medical skills?
Lu Yingxue's face turned pale. "She wants to win the first prize, saying she's unwilling to be my stepping stone. She's already reached the last step, and she wants to be in the spotlight herself, even dreaming of becoming Master Zhong's wife. I don't know when she had this idea!"
Xiang Mingzhu has been subjected to "PUA" and brainwashing.
In order to contribute to the family, he has always been willing to be her foil.
Lu Yingxue never thought that the biggest betrayal would come from Xiang Mingzhu!
Something must have happened!
"This evil creature! If your uncle knew about this, he would probably be so angry that he would have a stroke! These younger generations of the Xiang family are useless!" Lu Bannong really hated Xiang Mingzhu. He didn't expect that she had such a pig brain!
"Father……"
Lu Yingxue's eyes were red and full of humiliation.
"We lost our leader and the position of vice president, and were betrayed by our own people. If I weren't allergic, we wouldn't be in this situation now! Seeing Qiao Xi enjoying such a glorious life is more painful than killing me!"
This was originally her honor.
Cheng Han's lineage must be cut off to prevent it from posing a threat to the Lu family.
Because back then...
Lu Bannong's face was filled with anger. "There's no point complaining about what you've lost. Since Qiao Xi wants the top spot, just give it to her. She'll have to suffer in the future. She wants to single-handedly shake my twenty-year position in the field of Traditional Chinese Medicine. It's simply wishful thinking."
He took a deep breath and said slowly, "Now we need to find out why that evil creature drugged you. She couldn't have done it on impulse, simply out of jealousy of you."
Lu Bannong was too confident in his long-term suppression and education of Xiang Mingzhu, and he was convinced that Xiang Mingzhu would not betray him easily.
There must be another reason.
Maybe there is someone else instigating behind the scenes.
So you have to go to the police station in person to ask clearly and find an answer.
"Should we go to the police station now?" Lu Yingxue asked, covering her burning cheek.
Lu Bannong glanced at her and said, "Go to the police station, but on the way, find a pharmacy to get the slap marks on your face treated. Don't let the reporters take pictures of you casually, otherwise it will cause a lot of trouble."
"OK."
Lu Yingxue also took the slap into account at Qiao Xi's expense, thinking that she would find an opportunity to avenge this humiliation in the future.
The driver sat in the driver's seat, silent as a mouse.
After hearing the order, he turned the car around and drove towards the Imperial Capital Public Security Bureau.
Half an hour later.
The car stopped in front of the police station.
Lu Bannong and Lu Yingxue entered the police station one after another. The person in charge gave them some face. When he heard that they wanted to see Xiang Mingzhu, he arranged for them to stay in a small room.
They pushed open the door of the small room and saw Xiang Mingzhu sitting in a chair with a flustered look on her face and her hair a little messy.
When he saw them, he asked, "How did the needle testing competition go? Who was the champion? Did that bitch Qiao Xi wake that woman up?"
He kept asking questions and seemed very concerned about the result.
Xiang Mingzhu felt very strange when she thought about the time she stayed in the police station.
The police didn’t come earlier or later!
It happened just when she started the competition!
This is a time trap, trying to make her lose!
While the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits!
"Cousin, uncle...what's the result of the game..."
Before Xiang Mingzhu could finish her words, Lu Yingxue slapped her in the face.
"Thanks to you! We all lost, and Qiao Xi took advantage of the situation! Now the champion of the needle testing competition is Qiao Xi! It has nothing to do with our Lu family!"
Lu Yingxue really wanted to cut open her brain and see if it was filled with straw.
Otherwise, how could you be as stupid as a pig!
Xiang Mingzhu covered her cheeks and said with wide eyes, "How could it be her! Did she really wake that woman up? Her hands were clearly burned, how is it possible..."
Lu Yingxue reached out and grabbed her hair, forcing her to look at her, staring at her coldly: "You tricked me into having an allergy, and now you've been taken to the police station. Only Qiao Xi is left. I warned you long ago not to underestimate Qiao Xi! It's all because of your arrogance that we've lost everything!"
Xiang Mingzhu's eyes were filled with tears and regret.
"I... I didn't want Qiao Xi to win. I thought I would win, and the family would still not suffer any losses... I didn't mean it."
She cried so pitifully!
"Cousin, uncle! I really didn't mean it. Please forgive me. Can you find a way to get me out of the police station? Qiao Xi and her husband want to sue me. The police said I might be detained or sentenced... I don't want to go to jail!"
She pleaded with Mingzhu, unable to stop her tears.
She no longer had the arrogance she had when she worked at the Chinese medicine clinic, and she looked very humble and embarrassed.
Lu Yingxue pushed her away fiercely, and Mingzhu fell to the ground with a funny and flattering expression on her face.
"Yingxue."
Lu Bannong, who had been silent the whole time, spoke up, "Step back first. I have something to ask her."
He stared at Xiang Mingzhu with cold eyes, like a hunter staring at a weak and struggling prey.
"uncle……"
Xiang Mingzhu shrank her neck in fear, her voice choked with sobs.
She had been afraid of this strict uncle since she was little, and dared not disobey his orders. This was the first time she had made such a big mistake, and if her uncle got angry, it would be more painful than being thrown into prison.
This fear is engraved in the bones and blood.
"Mingzhu, answer each of my questions. If you're hiding anything, expect the Huo family to sue you and put you in jail. If you're obedient, I'll get you bail today and you can come home with us."
She has just been placed under investigation and there is a high possibility that she will be released on bail.
Xiang Mingzhu nodded vigorously: "I'll tell you everything! I'll tell you everything! I won't hide anything, uncle!"
Lu Bannong moved his chair, slowly sat down, and said condescendingly: "Why did you drug Yingxue? Tell the truth!"
"I...I want to win the first place in the needle testing competition."
"When did you start thinking about this?"
"After returning from Haicheng."
Xiang Mingzhu sobbed and said, "I really didn't expect that the police would come to arrest me at the critical moment. I always felt that if I won the first place, I would also bring honor to the family. I thought..."
Lu Bannong frowned in disgust. "I've told you since you were little that your medical skills are mediocre and can't compare to your cousin's. Were you instigated or bewitched by someone to have such thoughts? Tell me all your secrets!"
"I……"
Xiang Mingzhu's mind flashed through Zhong Yi's handsome face, and she cried, "Uncle, Master Zhong and I are in love! But the Zhong family only values my cousin. Master Zhong said that as long as I can win the first place in the needle-testing competition, he will ask the old man to marry me!"
