Chapter 646: Eyelids twitching, something big is going to happen
After Huo Xingzhou finished speaking, he put the documents on the desk to the other side.
"Old Chen, go check where Lu Yutong lives and all the people she has come into contact with. There must have been some foul play when Cheng Han and Lu Bannong competed. I don't believe that a traditional Chinese doctor who has devoted himself to studying medicine can't beat a sinister and vicious villain."
Both the father and daughter of the Lu family have a hypocritical appearance and enjoy a very good reputation in the imperial capital.
But when it comes to medical skills, it’s hard to say.
After hearing what he said, Lao Chen nodded quickly and said, "I will start contacting the housekeepers and community security guards around her to get a general understanding of the situation first."
"Go get busy."
"Why."
Lao Chen walked out of the room and closed the door.
Huo Xingzhou was looking through Haicheng's Future City project. After such a long time, the Future City project had roughly completed its outline.
There has been great progress.
The cell phone was buzzing nearby.
He took a look and didn't answer.
But the other party was relentless, as if he would not stop calling until he answered.
After Huo Xingzhou approved a document, he slowly answered the phone, "Hello."
From the other end of the phone came Zhong Yi's sarcastic voice: "Mr. Huo is so busy that he doesn't even have time to answer the phone."
Huo Xingzhou changed his posture, picked up his phone and said, "I am indeed a little busy. So please try to be brief and don't waste time."
"The seal you gave me belongs to the Qian's medicinal materials factory. You must have taken over the factory. Xu Yunye is quite capable, but you left me with an empty shell." Zhong Yi's tone was somewhat accusatory, "Huo Xingzhou, you have a good plan."
Huo Xingzhou smiled faintly and said, "I am thinking about you. Before, the Lu family was too busy to take over the Qian family's herbal medicine factory. Now the relationship between Lu Bannong and Zhao Chang has changed. They will definitely remember the conditions you promised to the Lu family. They got the open agreement, but they have never had the time to go."
Zhong Yi said unhappily: "Then should I thank you?"
"You are welcome."
"Huo Xingzhou, you are so cunning."
“Same here.”
Zhong Yi took a deep breath and said, "Now that you have tampered with the Qian family's herbal medicine factory, it is certain that it will not be able to supply the Lu family's Chinese medicine hall normally. They will find out about the problem sooner or later."
Huo Xingzhou had already found an excuse for him: "That can only mean that you, Young Master Zhong, know nothing about medicine and are not good at management. Also, the Qian family is a parasite and the herbal medicine factory has long been closed. The Lu family still depends on you, the future heir of the Zhong family, to take over, so they will not tear their faces with you."
"You have calculated it very well. After all, I am the one who took the blame, and the one who suffered losses is the Lu family. And you have extricated yourself very well."
"Are you done? I have something else to do tonight."
Huo Xingzhou didn't want to chat with him.
"What can you do so late at night?" Zhong Yi sneered when she heard his words.
Huo Xingzhou laughed and said, "I thought you should know since you're engaged, not to mention you brought Ye Ying home tonight. Even if three people were to play Landlord, they would be able to get together. I didn't expect you to be so free."
"Huo Xingzhou, why are you being so weird? Don't think Qiao Xi..."
“Hang up.”
Huo Xingzhou hung up the phone directly. If it weren't for the situation, he wouldn't have had so many interactions with Zhong Yi.
He could feel Zhong Yi's jealousy towards him.
But at the same time, he is also very aware of his jealousy towards Zhong Yi.
Huo Xingzhou slowly opened the drawer and took out the yellowed old photo that was pressed at the bottom.
The girl in the photo is young and cute, with a simple and bright smile on her face.
The boy next to her was particularly unsightly.
Huo Xingzhou was jealous because Zhong Yi had seen all her best years. That was a regret that he would never be able to make up for in his lifetime.
He suddenly chuckled.
This photo has been lost for so long.
Qiao Xi didn't notice anything.
So did she not care, or was she just pretending not to care? Or had she simply forgotten that there was such a photo in the medical book?
Huo Xingzhou turned the photo over and stroked the words on the back.
It's really an eyesore!
He threw the photo back into the drawer.
…
Two days later.
The Chinese Medicine Association holds its monthly meeting, with a total of 13 internal mid- and senior-level managers.
One president and two vice presidents.
Below are the ten directors.
Daily decisions are made by voting and they have supreme power. The Chinese Medicine Association has the right to manage branches in various places and has absolute leadership.
Not to mention the positions of president and vice president.
However, if it is a major event related to the development of the association and the lifeblood of the traditional Chinese medicine community, the supervisory group needs to come forward and participate in decision-making.
The members of the supervisory group were the leaders of the traditional Chinese medicine community, and some were as powerful as Cheng Han.
Therefore, it was because Qiao Xi got the position of vice president in the test meeting that the Lu father and daughter lost their composure like this.
Nine o'clock in the morning.
The quaint door of the Chinese Medicine Association was slowly opened.
Thirteen members gathered in the bell tower of the Chinese Medicine Association.
This is where daily meetings are held, and everyone goes up the stairs.
When Qiao Xi arrived, she also saw Shen Xuanzhi.
Her eyes were full of surprise, because Shen Xuanzhi once said that he wanted to apply to become a member of the Chinese Medicine Association, but she did not expect him to appear in the regular meeting.
Only directors and above are eligible to attend this regular meeting.
He...became a director?
What a surprise.
Qiao Xi walked to the entrance of the clock tower and was stopped by security.
The security staff said, "Vice President Qiao, please ask your bodyguards to wait outside. This is the regulation of the Chinese Medicine Association. You are not allowed to bring any lethal weapons or bodyguards."
Qiao Xi paused, looked at Lao Chen behind her and said, "Then you wait for me outside."
"Madam, I have to follow you."
This place is almost like a dragon's den and a tiger's lair.
Old Chen looked embarrassed, as this was the task assigned to him by the young master.
"It's okay, Old Chen. There won't be any accidents today. Don't worry..." She raised the long silver-gleaming needle on her sleeve, "Here is this."
She looked at the staff and confirmed, "I'm a Chinese medicine practitioner. Should it be okay for me to bring needles?"
"Well, it doesn't violate the rules."
Qiao Xi nodded and walked inside, while Lao Chen stood outside, alert. If he heard anything unusual, he would definitely rush in!
I always feel my eyelids twitching.
It feels like something is going to happen!
His premonitions were never wrong. The last time the young master got into a car accident, he had this feeling of something being wrong.
As a result, something really happened.
This time, could it be the young lady's turn?
Old Chen took a look at the appearance of the bell tower. Since he couldn't get in through the main entrance, he looked to see if he could get up from other places.
Even if he had to climb over the wall, he would have to climb over it.
Just as Lao Chen was racking his brains to get into the bell tower, Qiao Xi had already entered the conference room.
The conference room is furnished with a heavy, historic long round table and 13 leather-backed chairs.
She sat down in her seat.
