Chapter 599 She went to see Zhong Yi alone

Lu Yingxue waved her hand, found a waiter and whispered a few instructions.

She slowly walked down the stage. The elders had their own social circles.

Young people tend to stick to their own circles.

As the focus of the whole audience, Lu Yingxue was surrounded by many young men and women as soon as she stepped down from the stage, speaking flattering and envious words to her.

She responded politely.

"Congratulations, Miss Lu. You and Master Zhong have finally achieved a happy ending. From now on, the Lu family will have a smoother life in the imperial capital."

"You are so lucky."

"Mr. Zhong has always been a clean man and would never mess around with other men. Miss Lu will be happy in the future. I'm sure the Zhong family's wedding ceremony will be even more grand. The engagement banquet this time cost a fortune."

Lu Yingxue smiled and covered her lips, saying, "That's not so exaggerated. Ayi and I are indeed old enough to get engaged."

She is two years older than Zhong Yi. She is 28 this year and will be another year older after the New Year.

She is indeed anxious to make a decision!

"You guys chat first, I have a distinguished guest to entertain." Lu Yingxue lifted her skirt and slowly walked to where Qiao Xi was.

As soon as Huo Sijiao noticed her approaching, she immediately took Qiao Xi's arm and looked at her warily.

"Ms. Lu, why didn't you wear that goose yellow dress? You still insisted on your choice. If you don't trust our taste, don't ask us to help you choose a dress. My sister-in-law's kindness has been wasted."

Huo Sijiao's words were not very polite.

He didn't have a good look towards Lu Yingxue either.

Lu Yingxue's expression remained unchanged.

"I just think white is more suitable for today's theme." Lu Yingxue said with a gentle face, "Miss Huo has made a lot of money by taking advantage of my engagement party. I heard that you two are going to open a beauty salon together?"

"Yes, I heard that Miss Lu also owns a beauty salon."

Huo Sijiao had done market research a long time ago, and she didn't expect that Yingyue Pavilion under Lu Yingxue's name was actually one of the best beauty salons in the imperial capital. Do these wealthy and ambitious socialites all like to open beauty salons?

“Indeed.”

Lu Yingxue looked at Qiao Xi with a little smile in her eyes and said, "My beauty salon only provides some routine services, which are not as good as the top beauty and scar removal products you advertise. I heard that the prescription was improved by Miss Qiao from an ancient medical book? I will go and try it out to see the effect."

"welcome."

Qiao Xi had a cold smile on her face. "But the free trial is no longer available. If you want to experience it, you can only top up your diamond card at our beauty salon. I'm sure Miss Lu won't be short of money, so you must come."

Qiao Xi also learned how to squeeze people out.

Lu Yingxue pursed her lips and said, "Miss Qiao is such a joker. I never thought that the medical skills you learned could be used in beauty. It's really a good way to gain both fame and fortune. But it has tarnished the medical skills after all..."

Want to trick her into recharging.

It was just a dream.

People in the same industry are enemies. She and Qiao Xi are always at odds with each other. They even bump into each other when doing small business. This must be the bad fate they have cultivated for several lifetimes!

Naturally incompatible.

Qiao Xi looked at her and refused to give in: "Miss Lu, are you saying that my medical skills are tainted with the smell of copper? I didn't expect you to have such lofty ideas. Why don't you just buy a dress? Even the engagement banquet will cost hundreds of millions. It's really double standards!"

"That's right."

Huo Sijiao looked at Lu Yingxue with a smile, "Miss Lu is called the female Hua Tuo by the people of the imperial capital, but I think she is more like the black-hearted Saint White Lotus. She is very tolerant of herself, but has very high moral standards for others."

The smile on Lu Yingxue's face disappeared, and she lowered her voice and said, "Ms. Qiao, don't forget that you are still my father's subordinate. The Chinese Medicine Association welcomes you very much!"

After she finished speaking, she turned around and left in her high heels, chatting with others.

Huo Sijiao sneered, "What kind of person is this? She actually thinks she's a piece of cake! Sister-in-law, don't bother with her. This kind of vicious woman with a scorpion heart will get into trouble sooner or later! So what if she's engaged to Master Zhong? She might even cancel the engagement."

“She is really arrogant.”

Qiao Xi frowned and said, "I thought the Lu family would go downhill after losing the support of the Xiang family. I didn't expect that the Zhong family's marriage contract would make the Lu family the hottest new nobles in the imperial capital. No matter how far Zhong Yi can go in the future, Lu Yingxue will also benefit from it."

What a headache!

"Sister-in-law, think of something happy. I'm going to the bathroom. You wait here for me and don't walk around." Huo Sijiao drank a lot of fruit wine and drinks with those rich girls at the social events, and her stomach could no longer bear it.

She stuck out her tongue and said, "Sister-in-law, give me the handbag. My foundation and lipstick are in your bag."

"Well, don't worry."

Qiao Xi handed her the handbag and watched Huo Sijiao walk away.

Qiao Xi was boredly eating fresh fruit slices, standing in the middle of the scene in her white dress, very eye-catching.

Lao Chen behind him was always on guard.

No one came forward for a while, and everyone was in a mess.

After a while.

A servant handed her a note.

Qiao Xi unfolded the rolled up note, and the line of words on it made her suspicious.

She looked around.

But the owner of the note was nowhere to be seen.

Qiao Xi pursed her lips. The handwriting was messy but revealed a familiar stroke.

She called softly, "Old Chen."

Old Chen took a few steps forward and asked, "Young Madam, what's wrong?"

"Where did the boat go?"

"Young Master and the eldest son of the Xie family went to the flower corridor at the back to discuss something, and told me not to disturb them easily. It seems that after the Xiang family went bankrupt, the two families are dividing their interests. Our Huo family wants to use the power of the Xie family to gain a foothold in the imperial capital."

When Qiao Xi heard this, she suppressed her inexplicable irritation and said, "Then come with me to the top floor."

Old Chen asked in surprise, "The top floor? The lounge on the top floor is reserved for the Zhong and Lu families. What are you going to do there?"

On one side were the Lu family, and on the other side were the Zhong family. The Lu family had three rooms, and Lu Yan was hiding in the lounge because he didn't dare to see guests casually due to his lame leg. The remaining side was the Zhong family, the eldest son and the eldest daughter-in-law of the Zhong family, as well as Zhong Hongfei and Zhong Yi's separate lounges.

"Something's going on."

Qiao Xi didn't know whether what was written on the note was true or false.

You have to go up and take a look to find out.

But she won't go alone.

"Mr. Chen, let's take the elevator to the fifth floor first. Our Huo family's lounge is on the fifth floor. After we get there, we can take the emergency stairs to the sixth floor. This way, it won't be too conspicuous."

"Okay, Madam, I'll listen to you."

Old Chen would not get to the bottom of the matter, but he would report it to the young master later.

It is his duty, and the young lady should understand him.

"Let's go. Tell Sun Weimeng to look after Jiaojiao."

"I know. I'll send a message to Young Master Sun. With Young Master Sun here, we can handle most situations. Our eldest lady is so hot-tempered that she won't let herself be wronged."

Lao Chen sent a text message to Sun Weimeng while walking.

He pressed the elevator button at the corner of the banquet hall, and he and Qiao Xi entered the elevator one after another.

Go straight to the fifth floor!

From the emergency exit on the fifth floor, I walked up the stairs to the quiet top floor.

Qiao Xi walked in front, and Old Chen looked around and found that there were name tags on the doors of the rooms, even the sixth floor.

They walked along and finally stopped at the door of the room at the end of the corridor.

When Old Chen saw that name, he immediately wanted to call his young master!
