Chapter 604: Picking up the woman I like
Huo Sijiao's beautiful face was cold, and she walked forward with her lips tightly pursed.
He pushed the door open as if in a fit of anger!
Her brother's words gave her confidence, and she believed that her sister-in-law was innocent.
The door opened.
Many people poked their heads in to look, and the sounds in the room became clearer and clearer.
It's a woman's voice!
There was also the sound of water in the bathroom and men talking.
"In the bathroom! It's really a man and a woman!"
"Mr. Huo spoke so confidently, but he's about to be slapped in the face. He's in the bathroom right now, and he probably doesn't dare to come out."
Zhong Lingxiao narrowed his eyes, his heart swelling, but he said, "My brother is really ignorant! I apologize to Mr. Huo. What happened tonight must be a misunderstanding. If it's your wife..."
"Do you have X-ray vision?" Huo Xingzhou sneered, "You can tell from standing at my door that the man and woman inside are definitely Zhong Yi and Qiao Xi? Or is all this part of your calculations? The heir to the Zhong family is still undecided."
Zhong Lingxiao gritted his teeth and smiled kindly, "The successor to the Zhong family is decided by the old man. It doesn't matter whether Zhong Yi or I take the position."
Huo Xingzhou sneered, "Only those who take advantage of others and act like a spoiled brat would say such hypocritical things."
Zhong Lingxiao's face turned pale from being squeezed by him: "Since Mr. Huo is so sure that his wife is innocent, then everyone follow me in and take a closer look! It will also help to clear Madam Huo's name!"
His people clearly saw Qiao Xi going to the fifth floor.
This is the only room on the entire fifth floor that hasn’t been searched!
Just as Zhong Lingxiao finished speaking, a soft and doubtful female voice sounded at the end of the corridor.
"What are you all doing here?"
Qiao Xi was still wearing that simple white dress, looking graceful and elegant!
Even with a little makeup, she was able to steal Lu Yingxue's limelight.
Many people turned around and looked back.
"It's Mrs. Huo!"
"But Qiao Xi isn't in there, so who is in the room?"
Which wild couple would go to someone else's room for excitement?
Qiao Xi slowly walked to Huo Xingzhou's side, with a hint of coldness in her eyes, and took his arm.
Her fingers were still trembling slightly. If it weren't for Guan Jingtan and Lao Chen, she wouldn't be able to wash herself clean even if she jumped into the Yellow River tonight.
"Are you okay?" Huo Xingzhou asked with his head down.
Qiao Xi shook her head.
Lu Yingxue felt a little regretful. The person inside wasn't Qiao Xi. If that was the case, then catching them in adultery would be meaningless to her.
So she said, "Please disperse, everyone. This is all a misunderstanding. Perhaps some guests couldn't help themselves and went to the wrong room, causing this blunder. Please move to the banquet hall on the first floor."
She wanted to settle the matter peacefully, but Zhong Lingxiao refused!
As long as what you like is inside, it’s fine!
He likes to be cautious in doing things and never makes any mistakes.
Zhong Lingxiao wanted him to lose face at the engagement party and become the talk of the capital!
"Wait, since the person inside isn't Madam Huo, I'd like to apologize to your Huo family first, but our original intention was to find my brother. Now that we've found our way here, we might as well take a look."
He couldn't bear to be refused, and casually pointed at a lackey and ordered: "Go in and take a look first. If you don't like it, don't bother them."
"Okay, young master."
The lackey naturally knew what he meant and walked in lightly.
After a while, everyone outside the door heard a cry of surprise, "Mr. Zhong, why are you here?! Are you...doing this to Miss Lu?"
The guests heard it.
Good job!
It turns out that there really was Master Zhong and a girl inside. What explosive news!
I don't know who started to squeeze into the room, they were so gossipy.
Lu Yingxue was in a dilemma and could only walk in and be forced to participate in this ridiculous "catching an adulterer"!
In the crowded room, the bathroom door was half open.
The shower head was on, and misty water vapor drifted out.
A petite woman huddled in the corner, wrapped tightly in a large bath towel.
Her long hair was also wet and spread across her chest. She lowered her head, so her appearance was unclear.
The picture is particularly beautiful.
The handsome young man leaned against the bathtub, his expression calm, his eyelashes wet by the water, appearing even deeper and more profound.
His upper body was still naked, and his shirt was thrown aside.
He wore suit trousers on his lower body, which hung loosely around his waist.
The water in the bathtub barely covered his chest. He frowned slightly as he looked at the countless well-dressed guests outside.
His already handsome face was even more alluring now.
I really like it!
Zhong Yi lazily placed his hands on the sides of the bathtub and said, "Why are you all here?"
"Zhong Yi, today is your engagement party with Miss Lu. Why are you hiding here with other women..." Zhong Lingxiao accused, "You really..."
The guests murmured, "Who is that woman? The Zhong family has such a huge scandal, comparable to the rumors about Zhong Lingxiao's infertility!"
"Look who that woman is."
They leaned their heads forward to see the woman's face clearly, but Zhong Yi turned sideways to block their view.
"Big brother."
Zhong Yi's voice was slightly hoarse, hiding a smile, but there was no warmth in his eyes.
"Don't blame me for now. Your women could fill several mahjong tables. If you have time, check the hotel surveillance for me. After all, as a member of the Zhong family, I was drugged and set upon at my own engagement party! It's truly terrifying!"
As soon as the words fell, a huge wave of emotion was stirred up.
"He was drugged? Who is so bold?"
"I heard that the Zhong family will announce the next heir by the end of the year. Do you think it will be..." They looked at Zhong Lingxiao, "The others have no motives."
"Nonsense, Young Master is so generous and forgiving. Who knows, it might have been done by some woman who has a crush on Young Master Zhong? Do we need to explain how charming Zhong Yi is?"
"It's also possible that Master Zhong is lying to cover up his infidelity."
Lu Yingxue was a little panicked. She didn't expect Zhong Shao to directly confess that he had been tricked.
"Did Ayi... make a mistake?" Lu Yingxue added medicine to the sobering soup, but her method was covert. She used the incense and medicine in the room to help arouse sexual desire, which is generally not detectable.
But it's not foolproof.
Zhong Yi scoffed. "You mean I'm having fun at my own engagement party, deliberately embarrassing you and ruining my own reputation? I've never even touched you, am I that horny?"
"You..." Lu Yingxue bit her lip.
Zhong Yi's eyes were indifferent. "I'll leave this matter to my brother to investigate for me. After the banquet, I'll go to the hospital to test the remaining drugs in my body. I will get to the bottom of this matter!"
Zhong Yi looked at everyone with a scoundrel look: "Excuse me, everyone here is a suspect!"
Even if he was caught cheating, he remained calm and continued to chat and laugh.
"Aren't you guys leaving yet? Do you want to watch me get dressed?" Zhong Yi's long legs were casually crossed, and the water in the bathtub overflowed.
Now that he said that, how could these people still stay there with such a thick face?
The guests were dispersed by the bodyguards, and Zhong Lingxiao left with a sullen expression. He wanted to take the initiative and file a complaint against Zhong Yi in front of the old master, pushing Zhong Yi further away from the position of heir!
After a chaos.
The only people left in the room were Zhong Yi, the petite figure in the corner of the bathroom, and the room's original owners, Huo Xingzhou and his wife.
And there is Lu Yingxue with an ugly expression!
Lu Yingxue's gaze fell on the corner of the bathroom.
She wanted to see who this woman who "picked up a bargain" was!
