Chapter 689 Conspiracy to Take Zhong Yi's Life

The sound of exclamations gradually rose!

Qiao Xi held Huo Xingzhou's hand and walked slowly inside in high heels.

Tonight, they are the protagonists.

In the imperial capital, I completely became the protagonist.

"What a perfect match!"

"They are a perfect match."

"The Huo family should have a place in the imperial capital."

"It's not just a position, it's also possible to have a seat in a noble family!"

"That Mrs. Huo is so beautiful. I have seen her in Haicheng before. She doesn't have such aura and looks. How come some people become more beautiful as they grow older?"

"Of course there are people who are good at growing flowers." The man stuck out his lips towards Huo Xingzhou and said with an ambiguous smile.

Zhong Lingxiao held a glass of wine and watched Huo Xingzhou and Qiao Xi walk past him, a playful smile on his face.

He turned around and glanced at Lu Yingxue who was standing not far from him and said, "With such a beauty, it's no wonder that someone in my family is concerned about her. Future sister-in-law, don't you think so?"

Lu Yingxue's face turned ashen.

"I don't understand what the young master is talking about."

Zhong Lingxiao took a few steps closer and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "I said, Zhong Yi has someone in her heart. That person is better than you in every way. Even if you marry Zhong Yi, he will not make plans for your Lu family. Do you understand?"

Lu Yingxue's fingers were clenched so tightly that her knuckles turned white.

"My future sister-in-law, it is not enough for a woman to have a career. She must also be beautiful and have the ability to seduce her husband. But what are you better than this Mrs. Huo?"

None.

Lu Yingxue bit her lips hard until she could taste blood in her mouth.

She spoke in a hoarse voice: "What advice do you have, young master?"

"The end of the year is approaching, and Zhong Yi and I will fight to the death. Instead of guarding a man who will never belong to you, you might as well cooperate with me. When I take over the Zhong family, your Lu family will also benefit."

"What's the benefit?"

"Don't you, the Lu family, want to be one of the four great families? Let's reach an agreement on this. You and I will work together inside and outside, and I will give you the position of a family."

Lu Yingxue listened to Zhong Lingxiao's suggestion, and it would be a lie to say she wasn't moved.

She did so much just to help the Lu family move to the next level.

Replace all the top giants step by step and take the top position in the capital.

Zhong Yi is unreliable and even helps Qiao Xi deal with the Lu family.

Lu Yingxue had long regretted this marriage, and now Zhong Lingxiao has extended an olive branch...

"Lu Yingxue, you have no choice. The Huo family is watching you covetously. Look at the people present today."

Lu Yingxue looked at the people in the banquet hall who were greeting and fawning on Qiao Xi and her husband, and felt dizzy. In addition to the support of the Xie and Guan families, Zhong Yi was also secretly plotting against Chen Cang.

She really had no choice.

For Qiao Xi, Zhong Yi can give up the interests of the Zhong family.

Her voice was a little hoarse: "How did you know about her and Zhong Yi?"

"What you know, I also know. I have been fighting with Zhong Yi for so many years, how could he have hidden it from me? From the engagement party to the large number of people he sent, he thought he could hide these details from me!"

Know yourself and know your enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles with no danger of defeat.

"Lu Yingxue, someone who doesn't have you in his heart will not make plans for your family. You, the Lu family, stood on the wrong side from the beginning."

Zhong Lingxiao elaborated on his advantages: "I already have my own children, and I have the support of my mother's family. Zhong Yi is an illegitimate child. Will the old lady really let the eldest son of the legitimate family become a whetstone for the illegitimate child? The old lady values ​​interests the most, but Zhong Yi doesn't even care about his family for a woman. Who would trust to hand over the family to him?"

"He has no chance of winning."

Lu Yingxue felt conflicted.

The last time I heard Zhong Yi's words, it seemed that he might be able to obtain the position of heir.

But what Zhong Lingxiao said does make sense.

The Lu family initially planned to support Zhong Yi to take the position, and then after the child was born, they would use chronic poison or create an accident to make Zhong Yi die quietly.

The Lu family bloodline took over the Zhong family.

Step to success!

But now it seems that it is not feasible, Zhong Yi will not have children with her.

It is not certain whether he can hold on with her until the day of marriage.

"Why didn't he come with you tonight? Don't you have any idea in your mind?" Zhong Lingxiao's last sentence was fatal, hitting Lu Yingxue's heart heavily.

It made her blood run cold.

Zhong Yi had embarrassed her many times.

He also secretly took care of Qiao Xi, sacrificing the interests of the Lu and Zhong families!

Not a good match!

Lu Yingxue said with cold palms: "Are you sure you can manage the Zhong family?"

"I am 70% sure that Zhong Yi is alive. If Zhong Yi dies, I am 100% sure. To be absolutely sure, Zhong Yi has no choice but to die. I know where he went tonight, and I have paved the way for you. It is up to you how to go."

"What road?"

Zhong Lingxiao was also raised by the old lady when he was young.

His mind is also extraordinary. If it weren't for Zhong Yizhuyu, the future of the Zhong family would have belonged to this young master Zhong.

This is what people in the imperial capital thought in the decades before Zhong Yi returned to the Zhong family.

Zhong Lingxiao's eyes were filled with a cold light: "He went to the Thirteen Bay Pier to discuss business tonight, hoping to get in on the Pei family's overseas business. It's just a fool's dream. He doesn't know that the Pei family has long..."

Zhong Lingxiao smiled silently.

"My dear sister-in-law, it's not certain whether he will be able to come back alive tonight! I have ambushed people at all the intersections and have also informed the hospital. If he is lucky enough to come back home, he will have to rely on your Lu family's chronic poison. You don't have much time to hesitate."

All those stupid things he did before were just half-hearted tricks.

He had to make Zhong Yi think that he was brave but not reckless, lower his guard again and again, and then find the opportunity to strike him with one strike!

"you……"

Lu Yingxue looked at him in a daze.

She suspected that Zhong Lingxiao and the Pei family had been in collusion for a long time, and this business might be a trap they set for Zhong Yi.

if……

If Zhong Yi died at the Thirteen Bay Pier, the truth could be covered up with the abilities of the Pei family and Zhong Lingxiao.

It’s so easy to create an accident!

But at that time, even if she surrendered to Zhong Lingxiao, it would be icing on the cake and would be of no use.

Zhong Lingxiao played with his phone and smiled coldly: "Do you know about hired soldiers in foreign countries? They will do things for you without any trace even if they risk their lives for you."

Lu Yingxue's heart was pounding.

She knew that once Zhong Lingxiao's phone rang, she would have no chance to weigh the pros and cons.

Her mouth was dry and her throat felt like it was stuck.

"I need to ask my father, he..."

"Aren't you still breastfeeding? Do you really need to ask him about such a trivial matter?"

Lu Yingxue looked a little unhappy at his retort, but when she thought about it, she realized that her father had already had opinions about Zhong Yi, but he had no choice.

Now Zhong Lingxiao took the initiative to find her...

Lu Yingxue took a deep breath and said, "I promise you."

Zhong Lingxiao heard her answer and smiled meaningfully: "Very good. If I hadn't married Zhao Shuyuan, the Lu family might have become my in-laws. After all, Miss Lu is a beauty..."

Lu Yingxue's cheeks turned red and white.

She used to be considered beautiful.

But now there is a scar on my head, which makes me feel nothing like these four words.

Her chest was heaving with anger. She raised her eyes and looked at Qiao Xi, who was as bright as spring sunshine on the high platform, and felt even more depressed.
