Chapter 571: Remember to Avoid Suspicion After Marriage

There was a faint expression on Qiao Xi's fair face, and she pursed her lips as she spoke.

"Ms. Lu is a female Hua Tuo who enjoys great fame in the imperial capital, and she is also Mr. Zhong's fiancée. She is the most suitable person to treat him, but his condition is weak, so I'm sure Ms. Lu has a prescription for recuperation."

She didn't know whether this mysterious old lady from the Zhong family was setting a trap for her.

But it is better to have less trouble than more.

Lu Yingxue smiled and said, "I also want to see Miss Qiao's needlework. The needlework trial meeting is not enough. I have treated Ayi many times and I want to see if Miss Qiao has other methods. We can exchange and learn from each other."

Qiao Xi's tone was a little indifferent: "No wonder the Lu family's Thirteen Ghost Needles have some shadows of the Sparrow Pecking Technique and the Nine Plum Blossom Needles. It turns out that they were all learned through communication."

Lu Yingxue's expression faded, she bit her lip and said nothing more.

Why is this girl from Haicheng so sharp-tongued?

Old Mrs. Zhong stroked her beard, her expression unchanged: "Zhong Yi, what do you say?"

Zhong Yi lowered his eyes and said, "I'm in good health, so I don't need to trouble Madam Huo. Although doctors don't differentiate between men and women, I still need to avoid suspicion. After Yingxue and I get engaged, she will be better at recuperating for me."

The smile in Old Lady Zhong's eyes deepened: "I hope you will remember to avoid suspicion when you get married in the future. Miss Qiao, you have also been married. Since you have decided to get married, you should be faithful to your husband, right?"

Qiao Xi's almond-shaped eyes flickered slightly, not quite understanding what the old lady meant.

They are all very strange today.

She responded, "You're right. After you get married, you should be single-minded and live a good life."

She didn't notice that Zhong Yi's eyes dimmed a little, and she hid it very quickly so that no one noticed.

Mr. Huang frowned and said impatiently, "Stop talking so much nonsense and put your hands down." He patted the old lady's wrist very impolitely.

"Two girls came to watch me give acupuncture and learn for themselves."

He is not a very patient master, so he needs to accept disciples with extremely high understanding and talent so as not to make mistakes.

"yes."

"Okay, Mr. Huang."

Qiao Xi and Lu Yingxue walked to Huang Bingyi's side, one on each side, and watched him give acupuncture to Old Lady Zhong.

Zhong Yi felt a little bored and said, "I have some official business to deal with. I'll go to the study first."

"Go ahead."

Old Mrs. Zhong had scolded him enough, so she kindly let him go.

I hope this kid can find some fun.

…

It's almost noon.

It is different from the hidden vortex of the Zhong family.

There has been an uproar online.

If something goes wrong with the Xiang family, this giant shark in the sea, it will affect many small and medium-sized enterprises and cause countless people to lose their jobs. The anxious and restless mood swept through the online comments.

The phone at the group's front desk was about to explode with calls, but the front desk still gave a unified tone saying that they had nothing to say and were waiting for the press conference.

The press conference was scheduled for 12 noon and the media flocked to the event.

The media who were not invited were waiting outside, hoping to get some scraps to catch this wave of popularity.

Too many people are paying attention to this press conference!

It just so happened that the address of this impromptu press conference was in the conference hall of Yunqi Hotel, which inevitably made people have other ideas.

Yunqi Hotel is a property owned by Xie Xubai.

At this time, the small cafe in the hotel was cleared out.

Xie Xubai was wearing a light grey suit, his hands folded casually. Opposite him sat Xiang Tao, who had a pale face and red eyes, and was wearing a black suit.

The rage on Xiang Tao's face could hardly be hidden.

The waiter served them coffee: "Mr. Xie, this is your latte. Mr. Xiang, this is your espresso, double-strength."

"Thank you. I have something to say to Mr. Xiang. If you have nothing else, please don't bother me."

"Okay, Mr. Xie."

After the waiter left.

Xie Xubai added another sugar cube and milk to the latte, looked at Xiang Tao slightly, and said in a hoarse voice: "You might as well just order a glass of sweet milk."

A lot of milk is added to latte when it is made, so it is not bitter coffee.

"I don't like hardship."

Xie Xubai stirred the coffee gently, and the spoon did not touch the wall of the cup.

His handsome face was always cold but with a hint of gentleness. "Xiang Tao, you can endure too much hardship. That's why you have to endure endless suffering...even your coffee needs to be twice as concentrated."

Those who can endure hardship should endure more.

Xiang Tao smiled bitterly and didn't even feel like drinking his coffee: "Are you making fun of me? The press conference will start in half an hour. What is your purpose in inviting me here?"

He hasn't slept a wink since yesterday.

Physically and mentally exhausted.

Xie Xubai took a sip of coffee and said, "You go to the press conference in this mental state. Isn't it the same as telling them that something happened to the Xiang family? Your words will not be convincing, and will have a counter-effect."

He looked at Xiang Tao and said, "Let me guess. Your father was not at today's press conference. Are you trying to find an excuse to get away with it?"

"Xiang Tao, I know your father is dead. If you, a reporter, tell lies, I will expose your lies. Then the Xiang family's situation will be even worse, and you will lose your credibility step by step."

Xie Xubai doesn't like to play tricks, he only puts his open plots on the table.

"I know that the Xiang family has accumulated so much over the years, and I can't destroy it in a short time. But to get to this point, it's not just my Xie family that relies on it. You can think about how many people the Xiang family has offended."

Xiang Tao murmured, "It turns out that everything I do is under your control. And Huo Xingzhou is helping you, right? There are also many people who covet the status of my Xiang family. We have offended countless people over the years."

The Xiang family does not have a good reputation in the imperial capital and behaves in a domineering and arrogant manner.

Ruthless everywhere.

All matters that the Lu family could not handle were handled by the Xiang family.

The Lu family took all the benefits, and the Xiang family took a lot of blame. Now that the Xiang family is in trouble, the Lu family avoids them and draws a clear line!

"Father, you have been helping others for so many years! No wonder... the Lu family wants to give up the position of the four major families to the Xiang family, because uncle knows that this is a target! Although the Lu family is not one of the four major families, the glory and wealth they enjoy are no worse than the four major families! Even the reputation has surpassed the Zhong family!"

There was a look of sadness and panic in Xiang Tao's eyes.

Xie Xubai leaned back in his chair, looking somewhat indifferent: "Xiang Ze has fled the country, which means the Xiang family is in a very bad situation. How about I give you a choice?"

"What choice?"

"You already have 5% of the shares, plus your father's 41%, a total of 45% of the shares. This may play a big role in the hands of others. But you don't know how many tricks we have. I suggest you transfer all these shares to me according to the current market price."

Xiang's stock price has fluctuated repeatedly.

Shrinking again and again.

Xie Xubai can also take over these shares if he works hard.

Xiang Tao clenched his hands into fists, and he gritted his teeth but couldn't utter the words.

The cell phone on the table rang with a ding. Xiang Tao's heart tightened and he clicked on the unread message to take a look.

He seemed to be more motivated, raised his eyes and looked at Xie Xubai: "Someone has offered a higher price than you."
