Chapter 536 You Will Soon Be Madam Zhong

midnight.

The Lu family is located in the Qiu Shui villa area in the middle of the imperial capital.

In the shadows of the garden.

Lu Yan sat in a wheelchair and made one call after another, arranging all the tricks of the malicious people. Hearing footsteps behind him, he turned around and found Lu Yingxue walking slowly in the moonlight.

"Cousin."

He called out in a gentle tone.

"Why aren't you asleep so late?" Lu Yingxue asked, standing in front of him, holding her thin coat.

Lu Yan smiled cunningly and viciously: "Cousin, Qiao Xi is finished! I checked with the doctor who came to see her, she has a high fever of 40 degrees and it won't go down. It looks like she is in a dire situation. I didn't expect Li Songwen to hit the jackpot by accident. There are actually poisonous herbs in the pot of Chinese medicine soup."

"The Huo family refused to go to the hospital and hired someone to treat the disease at home. They must have been afraid that the news would leak out. Thanks to me using that idiot Li Nianqi, I was able to find out the specific information. I intercepted the doctor halfway, and now the news is everywhere that Qiao Xi has a high fever and wants to withdraw from the competition."

Lu Yan finally got rid of his anger.

Lu Yingxue, however, was not so easily relieved: "Don't underestimate your opponent before the last step. If Qiao Xi wins in this situation, then no one can surpass her!"

Lu Yan sneered: "How can she win? I'll stand upside down and eat shit."

He knew about his cousin Lu Yingxue's talent and hard work, and many seniors in the capital had praised her.

She said that it would be a great honor to accept her as my disciple!

"Cousin, you will definitely win gloriously! Let those who dare to challenge your position open their eyes and take a good look at how excellent you are! I can't wait to see Qiao Xi being punished, so that I can justify my broken right leg!"

He even sold his favorite motorcycle!

I feel disgusted every time I look at it now, it reminds me of the humiliation of that night!

"Lu Yan, this time it's not just Qiao Xi who can't afford to lose, I can't lose either." Lu Yingxue looked at him seriously, "If I lose, people will think I'm not as good as Qiao Xi. Some people will also question whether my father's medical skills are not as good as Cheng Han's... My father was able to reach his current position because Cheng Han retired."

She is also under a lot of pressure.

So I will use some tricks to make myself sure of winning.

"Cheng Han is not as good as uncle! Qiao Xi is even worse than you, cousin, don't worry. Don't you and Xiang Mingzhu already know the test questions for tomorrow? It's a closed-book test for others, but you have an open-book test."

A faint smile appeared on Lu Yingxue's lips.

Indeed.

The third round of exam questions was again asked by an old senior, but my father did nothing.

I just came back to give them a hint, and after ten years of planning, it has finally come to this day.

It's time for her to take the lead!

"Cousin, after the ceremony, it will be your engagement party with Master Zhong. Although the Zhong family has not publicly announced that Master Zhong is the next heir, I think it is a done deal. Zhong Lingxiao is infertile and is not very popular with the old lady."

Lu Yan felt a little happier when he thought that the Lu family was about to make a leap forward.

"Cousin, you will soon be the wife of Young Master Zhong! When the time comes, who in the entire imperial capital can compare to you? Guan Jingtan from the Guan family is not even worthy of carrying your shoes, so how can she be called one of the two beauties in the imperial capital with you?"

Lu Yingxue obviously also liked his flattery.

Believe that you will have success in both love and career.

But he said: "Guan Jingtan is indeed beautiful."

Lu Yan sneered: "She is beautiful in name only. She is said to have a strict upbringing, but in reality she is old-fashioned and boring. She has to take good care of herself. If anyone gets lucky with her, they can take advantage of the opportunity to get the Guan family's property."

Who doesn’t want the fat piece of meat from the Guan family?

The smile on Lu Yingxue's lips faded. Zhong Yi had also mentioned Guan Jingtan before.

You should get engaged as soon as possible!

"cousin!"

There came shouts for Mingzhu from the villa.

"Cousin, where are you?"

When Lu Yan heard the voice, he said in disgust: "It's so late, what is she doing here?"

"It must be something. I'll go take a look. Cousin, you should also go to bed early. Perhaps my medical skills will improve in my lifetime and I will be able to cure your leg."

Lu Yingxue said a few words of comfort and then walked towards the villa.

The villas in Banshan Qiushui are all very luxurious, a place that ordinary people can never set foot in their lifetime. The Lu family and the Xiang family are also relatively close, and it is common for Xiang Mingzhu to visit unexpectedly.

Lu Yingxue had no doubts.

What's more, this is the eve of the test meeting, so it's normal.

"cousin!"

Xiang Mingzhu's face was bright and charming. She trotted to Lu Yingxue and held her hand affectionately.

Lu Yingxue calmly withdrew her hand, sat on the sofa and asked, "Why are you here?"

"I can't sleep when I think about the competition tomorrow. It will affect the situation of our two families in the imperial capital. I can't sleep." Xiang Mingzhu followed her and sat on the sofa, looking at her sincerely, with red eyes.

"Cousin, my father was so angry that he was admitted to the hospital. The doctor said he had symptoms of a stroke and if it happened again, he would not be able to survive. My eldest brother is a stubborn person who does not know how to adapt and only follows my father's instructions. My second brother lost all his face because of streaking... Not to mention my third brother, he was sent to prison and has not been released yet."

Xiang Mingzhu lowered her head and cried, "Our Xiang family was ruined by Huo Xingzhou and Qiao Xi. I hate them so much in my heart!"

Lu Yingxue poured her a glass of water and said softly, "Uncle's health will get better. If aunt can return to China, you will have someone to rely on."

"My mother? She won't care about us, because the future more than 20 years ago... forget it, let's not talk about it."

Xiang Mingzhu wiped her tears and cried sadly and pitifully: "Cousin, I came here to tell you something. I know I was wrong in the second round. I should have eliminated Qiao Xi myself..."

"Cousin, I'll do whatever you need me to do in the third round! As long as Qiao Xi loses the game, I'm willing to do anything!"

Xiang Mingzhu looked at her firmly, her hands hanging at her sides and clenched into fists. She felt a little guilty, fearing that Lu Yingxue did not believe in her loyalty.

Lu Yingxue was graceful and had a fairy-like aura that was not tainted by the mundane world. "I don't really need you to do anything. I am confident that I can win."

Lu Yingxue is powerful.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to beat so many older contestants and win the championship ten years ago!

Although there is some water mixed in it, it should not be underestimated.

"My cousin is amazing, unlike me who has no talent. She made it to the end by sheer luck, and I will use that to highlight my cousin’s brilliance."

"Mingzhu..."

Lu Yingxue's eyes were filled with ripples, and her expression was inexplicable. "You have worked so hard this year, I thought you were going to compete with me for the first place. But your acupuncture skills are still not up to par, and reaching the third round is not a disgrace to your father's reputation."

"How could I possibly compete with you, cousin? I'm still waiting to attend your wedding with Master Zhong. Only when the Lu family is doing well can our Xiang family do well! By then, two of the four major families will belong to us... How glorious that would be! I, Xiang Mingzhu, will be able to walk proudly in the imperial capital."

He concealed his inner uneasiness from Mingzhu and said nice things.

She grew up with Lu Yingxue and had a better understanding of her temperament.

We have to let her let her guard down again!

Then find an opportunity!

A dark light flashed in Xiang Mingzhu's eyes, and he raised his eyes and looked at Lu Yingxue in front of him in a flattering manner and said.
