Chapter 1041 Extra 39: The Girl Next to Him

Zhong Lingxiao's face froze.

He opened his mouth but didn't dare to say anything.

Whenever Zhongyi came over, he would chat with him if he was in a good mood. If he was in a bad mood, he would humiliate him. But this was the first time he was so rude, and it was obvious that he was in a bad mood.

"Zhong Yi..."

"What qualifications do you have to ask me for help? How do you think I would bother Qiao Xi for your sake? And... when I crippled your legs, I deliberately delayed and didn't treat you in time, just to stop you from thinking about it. Your legs will never be cured! Even if Hua Tuo is reborn, it will be useless, and Qiao Xi can't save you."

"But Huo Xingzhou..."

"Are you worthy enough to compare with Huo Xingzhou? Even I..." I had been jealous of the good care Huo Xingzhou received from Qiao Xi.

Zhong Yi paused, looked at him and said, "You are right about one thing. I have been wasting my time keeping a useless thing like you by my side. It has been five years, and I don't have any anger to vent on you anymore. I will place you in a nursing home under the Zhong Group, and you can live a good life there."

"No! I won't go..."

There is no one there who will take good care of him.

"It's useless for you to object. If you have the guts, just go and seek death. Maybe your old lover Lu Yingxue will still miss your old relationship and come looking for you. I heard that she was released from prison, but I don't know where she went."

"Zhong Yi, you can't send me out. That nursing home is full of old men and women, I would be worse off than dead there. I'm already worse off than dead..."

"It is settled. You will disturb the children by staying here, and I have neglected your great trouble before."

For the physical and mental health of the two children, he should get rid of Zhong Lingxiao.

Who made him so quiet on weekdays? Why did he have to make such a noise today?

It can be considered as touching the mold that I like.

"Zhong Yi, you are angry with me because you can't get Qiao Xi! Even if I shoot you, you won't hate me that much! You hate me for stopping you from returning to Haicheng. You hate me for destroying Yueliang Village just because of you! You hate me for ruining your fate with Qiao Xi and forcing you to go back to the imperial capital! Right?"

Zhong Yi looked at him with deep eyes: "Yes, you are right."

He actually didn't have the patience to chat with Zhong Lingxiao, so he just wanted to dispose of him like garbage.

"Are you done? This should be the last time we meet."

"Zhong Yi, you can't do that to me!"

"Someone, send the young master to a nursing home."

He was unwilling to even give him a sanatorium, but was maliciously sending him to a sanatorium with a worse environment. Zhong Lingxiao finally broke down, with a little bit of death in his mind, he might have been driven crazy by anger.

"Xiao Yi, no matter how much you torture me, it can't change the fact that Qiao Xi abandoned you and threw herself into Huo Xingzhou's arms. Isn't it because of that woman that you haven't married for so many years? Just be prepared to be alone for the rest of your life, even though you have power and status. Love is the most torturous thing in the world, and you are no better than me!"

Zhong Lingxiao's mouth was full of curses.

But Zhong Yi turned a deaf ear and let them take him away.

If I had heard these words five years ago, Zhong Yi would still be moved.

But now, he has let it go.

Zhong Lingxiao's words were just like an annoying fly. Apart from being annoying, they had no other effect.

Zhong Lingxiao's voice disappeared in the old house.

Wan Jiang walked into the room and reminded softly: "Mr. Zhong, the person has been sent away. We don't need to..." He gestured at his neck with his hand.

Zhong Yi raised his eyebrows: "Wan Jiang, you are getting bolder and bolder following me. You dare to touch human life?"

"I'm just offering a small suggestion. The ancients said that weeds should be removed at the root, otherwise they will spread again once they have the opportunity."

"Let him be, he can't cause any trouble. If he really finds a chance to counterattack in the imperial capital, then I deserve it." He knew very well that for someone like Zhong Lingxiao, living was more painful than death.

But he couldn't bear to die.

He endured for five years and even asked Qiao Xi to treat his legs.

Isn't this just trying to survive?

Then let him live in pain for the rest of his life, and that will be considered as atonement.

"Oh, Master, go to bed early. You have to attend the National Medical Commendation Conference tomorrow. If you go with dark circles under your eyes, Mr. Huo will definitely laugh at you."

"Don't mention Huo Xingzhou. I hate him the most."

Zhong Yi stood up and wanted to go back to the master bedroom to rest, but then said, "Send someone to clean the room where Zhong Lingxiao lives. Throw away all the furniture inside and send someone to redecorate it. I don't want to see any of his things or smell anything in the Zhong family's old house again."

"yes."

…

the next day.

National Medical Recognition Conference.

This was Qiao Xi's first visit to the solemn auditorium.

She was dressed simply, and her face was less relaxed. Huo Xingzhou was always by her side, and those sitting around her were all famous seniors in the field of traditional Chinese medicine. Some of the older ones were even comparable to her master.

There are also some young people who are rising to fame.

The commendation ceremony has not started yet.

The media in the back row are already in place. These are media with relatively good reputations. Their reports are all factual and there is absolutely no subjective bias.

As soon as Qiao Xi sat down, many people greeted her in a low voice.

These people were not too noisy, and they all restrained their tempers and showed their kindest and most polite side. Qiao Xi had already met many of them at the Chinese Medicine Association yesterday.

She greeted them one by one.

Huo Xingzhou squeezed a glass of mineral water for her and handed it to her.

"Drink some water. My throat is hoarse. I see you have a lot of work to do today."

Qiao Xi took two sips from the water bottle and asked, "Is Ayi here?"

The seats are exquisite.

When the commendation ceremony started, even Huo Xingzhou couldn't sit next to her, let alone Zhong Yi.

The people sitting in the front row are the leaders of the Chinese Medicine Association and the upper echelons, as well as those who have made contributions to the Chinese medicine community. Other people of high status have to sit in the back row. After all, this is not their home turf.

No matter how much money you have, it’s useless.

"In the back."

Qiao Xi followed Huo Xingzhou's line of sight and saw Zhong Yi and a young girl who was not unfamiliar to him sitting next to him.

"Is that the young lady from the Feng family?"

No wonder Qiao Xi was surprised.

There are almost no people of the opposite sex of this age around Zhong Yi, let alone someone specially brought to participate in the National Medical Recognition Conference.

Huo Xingzhou knew what Qiao Xi was thinking, so he said in a somewhat guiding tone, "For the past five years, Feng Nanxi has been working as Zhong Yi's assistant. Recently, she has replaced Wan Jiang's position and has been by his side every day. I saw them at the cocktail party last night, and they were very intimate."

Qiao Xi's eyebrows curved with smile, "Then I'll go over and say hello."
