Chapter 644 Qiao Xi's Plan

Lu Yingxue felt blood on her hands.

The gauze on her right cheek had been knocked off, revealing a nasty wound.

The wound opened and pus oozed out.

Lu Bangnong's slap caused the wound, which was about to scabbed over, to crack again.

"Father..."

Lu Bannong looked at her without any tenderness in his eyes: "Didn't I warn you not to be so smart? Do you think Zhong Yi is just like those idiots you met before? He climbed to this position step by step! Why are you so impatient? Is it because you lost to Qiao Xi?"

"I……"

He is right.

Lu Yingxue's neck turned red.

The appearance of Qiao Xi brought unprecedented setbacks to her life.

She wants to prove herself!

First of all, she wanted to replace Qiao Xi's position in Zhong Yi's heart, but she didn't expect that she would actually drop the stone on her own foot!

I got nothing, and incurred Zhong Yi's disgust and my father's blame.

Today I heard another shocking secret: she is an illegitimate daughter.

It seemed as if life had been going downhill since the moment Qiao Xi arrived in the imperial capital.

"I just want to prove myself, is that wrong?" Lu Yingxue was distressed. "You should blame Xiang Mingzhu. Her uncertainty has caused us so much trouble. If it was the needle testing conference, she would not have betrayed us! The Lu family and the Xiang family would not have been in such a mess today!"

What's wrong with her!

"Father, everything I do is for the Lu family!"

Her eyes were red and she was filled with resentment.

"If you really want to help the Lu family, you must listen to me! Don't act on your own in the future and save your face."

Lu Yingxue exhaled slowly, her throat full of bitterness: "My mother's death anniversary is coming up, you still won't take me to worship her this year?"

In previous years, Lu Bannong said that he didn't want the mother and daughter to meet, for fear of bringing up sad memories.

He would also arrange many things for her on the anniversary of her death.

As a result, Lu Yingxue has not visited her biological mother for many years.

She used to think it was a coincidence, but now it seems that it was all arranged by her father.

Which man would want to see his illegitimate daughter after his original wife dies?

The information revealed by Lu Yutong is true.

"Don't worry about the worship. You should think about how to get the position of vice president. Qiao Xi's joining the Chinese Medicine Association will definitely bring a lot of changes. Although her foundation is still shallow and her position is not as high as mine. But she has Mr. Huang and Cheng Han behind her, and the old guys in the association will also take care of her."

Whenever Lu Bannong thought about this, he became furious.

A little girl actually dared to shake his position.

"I see."

No matter how patient Lu Yingxue was, she couldn't endure the blows she suffered again and again today.

Lu Bannong said calmly, "Go back to the villa and keep a close eye on Ye Ying. If she gets pregnant, it will help us get through this crisis, but she must not give birth to the baby in her belly. Do you understand?"

"Well, I won't let her give birth."

The child that I love can only be born to her.

"Go back. Don't come here unless you have something to do. And don't provoke your aunt and Xiang Mingzhu. The grudges of the previous generation have ended here."

Lu Yingxue remained silent.

She picked up her things, turned around and walked out slowly.

How can the grudges of the previous generation be ended?

If Qiao Xi knew what happened back then, she would probably hate the Lu family even more.

Not to mention...

It was dark outside, and Lu Yingxue's heart was even gloomier.

She almost wanted to destroy the world.

…

And the other side.

The Huo family's garden villa.

After Qiao Xi and Huo Xingzhou left Qiao Qianyan, they returned to the villa.

When Huo Sijiao heard the noise, she quickly stood up and said, "Sister-in-law, you are finally back. I have got all the things you asked me to bring. Do you want to see them?"

She took out a small pack of the new beauty cream launched by Yingyue Pavilion across the street from her bag.

Today, Yingyue Pavilion has snatched away a lot of business by selling beauty cream, and the effect is immediate.

Which woman can resist beauty treatment?

Those rich girls are going crazy.

"Sister-in-law, why do you look a little upset?" Huo Sijiao observed her face carefully and always felt that Qiao Xi was angry.

Even when my sister-in-law is in a bad mood, she doesn't easily show her displeasure.

What happened?

Huo Sijiao observed her brother's expression, pulled Qiao Xi aside and said, "Sister-in-law, did my brother make you angry?"

"Not him."

Qiao Xi took the beauty cream from her hand and said, "Some unpleasant things happened outside. Let's take a look at this first."

"Oh, okay."

Huo Sijiao glanced at her, then looked at Huo Xingzhou.

Huo Xingzhou twitched his lips and said, "I'm going to the study. Old Chen, come up with me."

"Yes, Master."

Old Chen followed Huo Xingzhou upstairs.

In the living room.

Qiao Xi carefully distinguished the Chinese herbal ingredients in the beauty cream. Most people would think they smelled the same and there is no difference.

But Qiao Xi's sense of smell is more sensitive.

Can smell something slightly different in here.

Something is missing.

"Sister-in-law, did you find anything?"

Huo Sijiao asked quickly.

Qiao Xi hadn't confirmed it yet, so she said, "We need to take another look."

She walked over to the tea table and spread the ointment, which also contained some light green particles. Some ingredients could not be processed into powder, so this was the only way to preserve the greater effect.

Qiao Xi dissolved the ointment in warm water and stirred it to emit a medicinal smell.

"It's more obvious in the water. The beauty cream has a stronger medicinal smell, and it also contains pearl powder." Pearl powder does have the effect of whitening the skin. Perhaps in order to achieve the effect quickly, Yingyue Pavilion also added some functional ingredients.

"There's not enough rice water."

"Missing Polygonatum."

"The amount of Angelica dahurica is a bit heavy."

"Missing..."

"This dosage is too heavy, and the preparation is..."

Qiao Xi analyzed slowly.

Huo Sijiao, who was standing by, looked at her with admiration in her eyes: "Sister-in-law, you are amazing. How can your nose smell these things? Why do they all smell the same to me? At first I thought someone stole the secret recipe of our jade cream. I didn't expect it to be a counterfeit... Then how about the formula of Lu Yingxue's beauty cream?"

"Simply whitening is fine, but removing scars is difficult."

Qiao Xi said calmly.

The Jade Skin Cream was prepared by her and Grandpa Cheng, which took a lot of time. Many of the proportions have been tested, so when you see the beauty cream made by Lu Yingxue,

She easily determined the outcome.

"That's not a threat to our beauty salon. After all, our main product is scar removal! But it's also hateful. This beauty cream must have been stolen from us!"

Huo Sijiao said angrily, "Maybe Lu Yingxue wants to use it for herself and dislike us at the same time."

Lu Yingxue injured her face and must be looking for various ways to heal it.

Which woman doesn't care about her appearance!

After hearing her words, Qiao Xi recalled what had just happened, her tone very calm.

"Jiaojiao, we are going to have a tough battle next."

Huo Sijiao heard this and said, "Sister-in-law, just give me your instructions. If you need me in any way, please don't hesitate to ask. What are your plans? Is it related to what I said last time?"
