Chapter 565: Zhang Han's Shocking Secret

That woman was the once famous movie queen Lin Xifei, and also Zhong Lingxiao's most beloved woman.

She offended Qiao Xi last time and was killed by Huo Xingzhou in Haicheng.

Later, he was suspected of leaking Zhong Yi's whereabouts, which led to Zhong Yi's accident in Moon Village. He had a "conflict" with Zhong Yi and was banned nationwide.

Now we can only catch a glimpse of her current situation through fragments of information reported by the media.

Those who pay attention to her will know that Lin Xifei and the eldest son of the Zhong family go out together, enjoy night outings everywhere, and do not take the real eldest daughter-in-law of the Zhong family seriously at all.

There are also rumors that Zhong Lingxiao's marriage is going to end and he will marry Lin Xifei.

But nothing got a response from the real owner.

Lin Xifei's peripheral vision caught sight of Huo Xingzhou sitting in the living room. Her eyes flickered, and she felt a little guilty.

She recognized Huo Xingzhou's face!

Instinctively I felt a little scared and evasive.

"Ling Xiao."

She pressed her body even closer to Zhong Lingxiao, "How about we come back to see the old lady another day?"

She was afraid of ruining things.

Zhong Lingxiao gently patted the back of her hand to comfort her, "Don't be afraid, the old lady loves children the most. He always says that having many children means more blessings, and doesn't care about status or family background, otherwise he wouldn't have brought Zhong Yi home."

"Um."

Lin Xifei responded softly, and then listened to Zhong Lingxiao asking about the old lady's mood today.

It turns out that even the legitimate young master of the Zhong family still fears this old lady and has to act according to his mood.

Whoever he likes more will be able to touch the top authority in the imperial capital!

Lin Xifei's subordinates touched her belly subconsciously, they must not let anyone know that this child was...

"Let's go to the study."

Zhong Lingxiao pulled Lin Xifei upstairs to the Zhong family's house.

Huo Xingzhou put down the warm teacup, watched their figures disappear around the corner of the corridor, and curled the corners of his mouth barely perceptibly.

Listen to what Zhong Lingxiao said just now.

It can be guessed that Lin Xifei should be pregnant!

It was said that the brothers in the Zhong family were friendly and respectful to each other, and that Zhong Lingxiao was a "tolerant, easy-going and polite" person. But just now he treated the guest as air and was eager to see the old lady of the Zhong family.

It seems that the news of Lin Xifei's pregnancy was so surprising that he even forgot to pretend!

If the child Lin Xifei is pregnant with is really Zhong Lingxiao's, then it is still unknown who will be the heir to the Zhong family.

Zhong Yi has already angered the old lady on so many things.

The situation is unfavorable.

The third floor of the Zhong family.

In a room filled with the aroma of medicine.

As soon as Qiao Xi entered the room, she poured Huang Bingyi a cup of tea and knelt on the ground respectfully and called out, "Teacher."

Ancient rituals cannot be abolished.

She meant it sincerely.

Huang Bingyi drank the apprenticeship tea directly, "Okay, today's simple meal is still considered as the apprenticeship ceremony."

Qiao Xi said softly, "Thank you for coming to the Huo family to treat my burns before the acupuncture competition. The golden needle technique is really powerful in removing poison and wounds. With my injuries that day, I would not have been able to make it to the third round of the competition."

Without Mr. Huang, there would be no her today.

"You got me angry."

Huang Bingyi looked at her calmly, "The Chinese medicine community is full of infighting, cliques and factions, and it's full of foul air! I left because I couldn't stand these trends, and then I heard about Cheng Han's story and felt even more heartbroken. But seeing your tenacity, I can't help but reflect... My inaction has also contributed to their trend."

"The pain and suffering in the world still need someone to heal them."

Huang Bingyi sighed deeply: "I can't do it, but I hope you can eliminate the bad habits and bad practices in the traditional Chinese medicine community. You are already in the game and can't get out of it."

Unless Qiao Xi could give up studying medicine to save lives, it would be impossible for her to stay away from the struggle.

Qiao Xi said firmly, "I will follow my heart and do my job well. I will never go along with the Lu family, but I will not let them bully me either!"

She is still waiting to see the father and daughter confess for grandma!

Feel remorse for the families they have harmed!

"It's good that you think so." Huang Bingyi said in a deep voice, "This time you got the position of vice president of the Chinese Medicine Association. I think that as long as I stay in the capital, the Luban Farmers Association will be more polite to you on the surface for my sake."

But he will have to leave the imperial capital sooner or later!

"Thank you for your maintenance."

"Get up, I'll treat your wound."

Qiao Xi slowly stood up and sat aside. She stretched out her right arm and untied the gauze. The wound on her arm was covered with scabs and looked very ugly.

"This injury will leave a scar. Did Cheng Han give you any scar removal prescription?"

Qiao Xi nodded: "Yes."

"That's good."

Qiao Xi looked at him and asked softly, "Do you really have to live in the Zhong family? Actually..."

"I owe him a favor, so I promised to stay here for a month every year to take care of his health and check on the health of his younger generations." Huang Bingyi's expression was indifferent and he looked quite serious.

"The Zhong family is the most powerful family in the imperial capital. The more power they hold, the more they fear death. When people get old, they have only a few hopes. They hope that their successors will have many children and grandchildren, and that they can live a long life. This time, he also hopes that I can take care of his great-grandson's health, hoping that he can give birth to offspring as soon as possible."

Qiao Xi identified herself with the person in question: "Have you ever seen the body of the Zhong family's eldest son?"

"I have seen it. She is completely hollowed out inside. It is difficult for her to have a child, but we cannot be absolute in everything. This man looks friendly on the surface, but he is actually very cunning. Don't conflict with him when you enter and leave the Zhong family."

"Yeah, I know!"

Qiao Xi nodded very obediently.

She will try her best to avoid the Zhong family.

"One more thing, your master Cheng Han... may be missing!"

Huang Bingyi said slowly, "I tried to contact him, but I couldn't get through."

Qiao Xi pursed her lips and said hesitantly: "When I arrived in the imperial capital, I checked the mark left by my master, and it showed that it was safe. But so much time has passed, and I am also worried. Could it be the Lu family..."

Huang Bingyi shook his head, very determined.

"It can't be the Lu family, because the Lu family is also looking for him. Do you remember the woman with narcolepsy?"

"Um."

Qiao Xi looked at him with her almond-shaped eyes, "Is there something wrong with that woman?"

"What happened back then had a huge impact in a small area. Your master Cheng Han became disheartened because of this incident. After so many years, although people's faces have changed, I still recognized her identity. She is..."

Huang Bingyi slowly spoke something to Qiao Xi.

Qiao Xi was completely stunned.

Head buzzing.

It was not until she left the third floor half an hour later and went downstairs that she was still thinking about what Huang Bingyi had said.

When she walked down the heavy stairs and turned the corner, she almost bumped into someone head-on.

She quickly stopped herself and did not bump into the man's body.

I just smelled the refreshing aquatic fragrance on him.

Qiao Xi saw the familiar, elegant and handsome face and took two steps back.

There was a flash of surprise in the young man's eyes, but he immediately regained his composure.

The housekeeper behind him reminded, "This is Dr. Qiao, Mr. Huang's apprentice. He will be studying with Mr. Huang during this period. Mr. Zhong, the old lady is still waiting for you in the study. Don't keep him waiting for too long."

"Um."

Zhong Yi responded and walked towards the study.

The old lady called him back specially.

After he left, Qiao Xi frowned slightly and walked quickly down the stairs.

I plan to talk to Huo Xingzhou about the news I just heard!
