Chapter 527 Qiao Xi, I'm Not a Gentleman



Chapter 527 Qiao Xi, I'm Not a Gentleman

As Qiao Xi thought about it, she also spoke out her guess.

"What are you betting on?"

Sun Weimeng and Lao Chen also pricked up their ears to listen. They had no idea what kind of medicine Huo Xingzhou was selling!

Huo Xingzhou's eyes flickered slightly and his brows lowered.

"The person originally arranged by the Lu family was not Li Songwen, but Xiang Mingzhu." He said slowly, "When Li Songwen took action, Lu Bannong was also surprised and looked at Xiang Mingzhu for a second time."

His eyes captured many details in an instant.

He also guessed the Lu family's plan.

Lu Bannong is a suspicious person. Under normal circumstances, he should arrange a chess piece that will never betray him and does not need to be bribed to leave evidence.

It can only be Xiang Mingzhu!

Xiang Mingzhu was the one most motivated to have a conflict with Qiao Xi, and it was easy for them to start a fight since they were sitting next to each other.

Xiang Mingzhu's reputation in the field of traditional Chinese medicine had already been ruined!

Sacrificing Xiang Mingzhu can bring the greatest benefit!

Why not!

"Depend on!"

Sun Weimeng's mind was also working quickly, "Xiang Mingzhu is his niece, can she be sacrificed for such a thing?"

Qiao Xi sarcastically said, "The Lu family is only interested in profit. They will sacrifice anything for the sake of profit. After all, they don't even care about human life..."

But she couldn't understand why the Lu family was so jealous of her.

Sun Weimeng looked at Huo Xingzhou with doubt again: "According to what you said, Li Songwen bribed Mingzhu, and she didn't want to be eliminated. Then what does this have to do with your not calling the police?"

Huo Xingzhou raised the corners of his mouth, his smile mixed with a bit of coldness: "Because we can't make a fuss. Li Songwen bought a ticket to leave the capital tonight, and I have sent people to catch him. Let the Lu family think that he has left, so they can rest assured."

"then……"

His eyes were filled with ink, and he lowered his head and continued to disinfect Qiao Xi slowly: "I will secretly collect evidence and hand it over to the police when the third round starts."

Sun Wei slapped his thigh and said, "Then the police will go to the Chinese medicine clinic to arrest people, and Xiang Mingzhu may be taken away in public for investigation. She will be humiliated in front of so many people."

Wonderful!

Sun Weimeng gave Huo Xingzhou a thumbs up again, "You are really cunning and sly. You know how to make the enemy even more uncomfortable!"

Qiao Xi looked at Huo Xingzhou deeply, but she didn't think that Huo Xingzhou was taken away in public just for Xiang Mingzhu.

He seems to have... a secret.

Huo Xingzhou noticed her gaze and blinked slightly when he met her eyes.

He must have other plans!

Qiao Xi's mind was working rapidly.

He said he wanted to take a gamble and take Xiang Mingzhu away at the start of the third round.

Why at that time? It certainly wasn't to embarrass Xiang Mingzhu even more. Did Xiang Mingzhu have another role after that?

"hiss!"

A burst of piercing pain brought Qiao Xi back to her senses.

She looked down and saw that Huo Xingzhou had already disinfected the wound. She retracted her wandering thoughts, took a deep breath and said, "Young Master Sun, please find me a clean towel."

"yes!"

Sun Weimeng jogged all the way, rummaging through the drawers.

She gently held Huo Xingzhou's hand with her left hand. Her voice was a little nervous but her eyes were full of trust. "Huo Xingzhou, pop all the blisters and drain out all the tissue fluid inside."

Her first aid kit contains all sorts of odd and curious tools.

"And these herbs need to be ground into powder. This is a prescription that Grandpa Cheng spent half his life researching and formulating. It's very effective. Aunt Chunhua in the village had a burn that was more serious than mine, and she was cured with this."

"I'll do the grinding! I'll do the grinding!"

Sun Weimeng ran over with a towel in his hand and said earnestly, "I can also grind Chinese medicine powder. I used to make pills for myself. I learned a lot of random things. I can use a medicine grinder."

He took the small medicine grinder and walked to the side, grinding it with all his might.

Qiao Xi's face was filled with a pale smile, and her clear eyes looked at Huo Xingzhou: "Then the biggest task is handed over to you, don't be afraid of hurting me! The blisters must be squeezed clean..."

Huo Xingzhou, who was wearing a black silk shirt, rolled up his sleeves. His eyes were particularly dark and dark: "Okay."

Qiao Xi rolled the towel into a long strip and stuffed it into her mouth.

Use your eyes to signal him to start.

Huo Xingzhou bent down slightly and squatted. He picked up the tool, pricked the big blister on Qiao Xi's arm, and extracted the yellow tissue fluid.

Then wipe with alcohol cotton and squeeze.

Qiao Xi was in so much pain that her whole body tensed up.

The back is straight, and the originally delicate clavicle curve is even more obvious!

“Hmm…”

She bit the towel so hard that her teeth ached.

Fine beads of cold sweat appeared on my forehead, and my back became sticky and wet.

The more pain she felt physically, the more determined she became to win!

The Lu family wanted her to lose, but she insisted on winning in front of them!

She just wants to win glory!

Beautiful win!

She wants to make their plans go awry and make them lose everything!

Huo Xingzhou quickened his movements, not wanting to let her feel the pain for too long! He silently counted the blisters that had been punctured in his heart. Qiao Xi had one, and Li Songwen would have no fewer!

"ah!"

Qiao Xi couldn't help but cry out in pain, tears welling up from the corners of her eyes.

Even Sun Weimeng felt uncomfortable watching these damn things. He, Sun Weimeng, would give them a good beating one day!

They are all rats in the gutter, only knowing how to play dirty tricks!

Huo Xingzhou's fingers trembled slightly. He suppressed the surging emotions in his heart and wrote down all the grudges!

I even felt a little regretful.

I didn’t make plans in the imperial capital earlier and take over its territory!

As a result, they are now attacked from all sides and need to plan every step carefully. They don't have the chips to crush the Xiang family.

There is still a big gap between Haicheng and the imperial capital!

There was a trace of self-blame in his eyes.

"I'm sorry," he whispered.

In the business world, he can plan every step and be successful. But the Chinese medicine world is not a business world after all. His network of contacts is not that wide yet.

The imperial capital is not his home turf, and neither is the traditional Chinese medicine community.

But one day in the future, it will be!

Qiao Xi put the towel aside and said, "It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge."

The four great families in the imperial capital cannot be overthrown so easily!

They have been entangled for so long that many traps they have not noticed can cause them to fall from their heights and become unable to recover.

But they actually came to this point.

"Actually, I'm not in that much pain."

She could understand his love for her and his self-blame.

Huo Xingzhou held her cold hand and whispered, "I'm not a gentleman..."

So he couldn't bear it for ten years.

Sun Weimeng panted and ground the powder while saying, "We take revenge when we have grudges, and we complain when we have complaints. I see that many people are unhappy, but there are also many people who are happy. They will destroy themselves sooner or later!"

He held up the medicine grinder and asked, "Is this enough? If not, I'll grind more!"

"That's enough for one time."

Qiao Xi asked Huo Xingzhou to help sprinkle it on the wound, and then wrapped the wound with gauze in circles.

The powder contained anti-inflammatory and analgesic Chinese medicine, and the cool feeling made her feel much more comfortable.

Now I just hope these burns won’t affect the flexibility of her right hand and won’t get too serious tomorrow!

Qiao Xi was thinking.

There was a lot of noise outside the villa.
