Chapter 232 An Ancient Medical Family! Emperor Ying Wants to Expose Fraud [2 Updates]
He looked over and saw two strangers.
A man and a woman, both dressed in luxurious and elegant gowns, exuding outstanding charm.
Ying Tianlu's gaze sharpened slightly, and he raised his chin: "Them?"
He noticed that Mu Chenzhou, who was with the Ying family, was the first to step forward to greet them.
That's why he didn't want to go home.
“You’ve heard of the Meng family of the capital, right?” Jiang Heng sighed softly. “These two are from the Meng family of the capital. I just saw their photos at Young Master Mu’s place.”
"This family is not as famous as the Mu and Nie families because they are a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners and do not engage in business or politics."
Ying Tianlu pondered for a moment: "I've heard about it."
He seemed to have heard Zhong Manhua mention it before, wondering if he could use the Mu family's connections to invite the Meng family's traditional Chinese medicine doctor to treat Old Madam Ying.
"Young Master Mu said that the Meng family's decision to come was made at the last minute." Jiang Heng lit a cigarette as well. "I guess there was something on the auction that caught their eye."
Ying Tianlu showed no reaction to this, his eyes were calm as he pondered something.
He wanted to prove Ying Zijing's identity, not to bind her to the Ying family.
Zhong Manhua and Ying Zhenting are so cold-blooded and ruthless. Ying Zijing finally managed to leave, and he will never let her come back.
She wanted to let the elite circles of Shanghai know that she was not some lowly adopted daughter, but a true heiress.
Those mocking and disdainful remarks should not be directed at her.
Ying Tianlu flicked some cigarette ash and said calmly, "Let's go sit over there."
**
Ying Yuexuan also knows many wealthy socialites.
After she came out of the restroom, she was stopped by a socialite.
"Xiaoxuan, what happened to Tianlu just now?"
Upon hearing this, Ying Yuexuan's fingers stiffened slightly.
She pursed her lips, unsure how to answer for a moment.
In the end, however, feelings prevailed.
Ying Yuexuan said softly, "Don't you know that my aunt hired someone to run over my sister with a car, almost killing her? My brother is so upright, he definitely needs to take good care of her."
“That’s true, but we can’t just ignore your feelings, can we?” The socialite shook her head. “Going to see your Ying family’s adopted daughter in public, what kind of image does that make?”
"Isn't this favoring those who usurp others' positions? How can you tolerate this?"
Ying Yuexuan was stunned for a moment: "You also think that biological children are more important than adopted children?"
“Of course,” the socialite said. “How important are blood ties? No one would want someone they’re not even related to by blood to inherit their fortune, would they?”
"Didn't I tell you this when we talked on the phone last time? My second aunt can't have children, so they adopted one, didn't they?"
"But later, my second uncle openly brought his illegitimate son home and even let him work in the company. My second aunt couldn't say anything about it."
Ying Yuexuan lowered her head and remained silent.
But Zhong Manhua and Ying Zhenting clearly favored her more.
But she realized today that Ying Tianlu's attitude towards her was actually the normal one.
"Let me give you a heads-up." The socialite patted her shoulder and sighed. "I know you don't like competing with others, but you can't let anything that belongs to you be taken away, or you'll regret it later."
Ying Yuexuan seemed to be still in a daze and did not respond.
Seeing her like this, the socialite added, "Besides, people are visual creatures. Look at her looks, who here can compare?"
Upon hearing this, Ying Yuexuan turned her head and looked in the other direction.
The girl was still wearing a white short-sleeved shirt and casual pants, with a black baseball cap on her head.
She was surrounded by elegant ladies in formal gowns, and even the waiters were dressed in impeccably tailored tuxedos.
Even so, she was stunningly beautiful, with exquisite features.
Even Ying Yuexuan, a woman, had to admit that her beauty was too pure and elegant.
“So you really need to pay attention,” the socialite couldn’t help but advise. “Try to charm your older brother and get his attention back.”
"I understand." Ying Yuexuan pulled her hand back calmly. "I'm worried about my mom being alone there. I'll go now."
The socialite nodded and took a cocktail from a passing waiter.
Suddenly, it was as if she remembered something.
She glanced at Ying Yuexuan, then at Ying Tianlu and Ying Zijin on the other side, her brows gradually furrowing.
Why did she feel that these two were more like biological siblings?
Of course, Ying Zijing's looks are still far superior to those of Ying Tianlu.
**
By 6:30, all the guests for the ball had arrived.
The auction took place after the ball.
The auction will only begin after the opening dance.
Ying Zijing didn't go downstairs. She stayed in the presidential suite she had booked, leaning against the bed with her laptop on her lap.
She had no interest in attending the ball.
Previously, during the ancient O continent period, she had spent time in the royal palaces of various countries.
These members of the royal family love to hold balls of all sizes.
She didn't even want to look at it anymore.
She came here today because of Mu Heqing; there was no need for her to participate in the other projects.
Ying Zijing propped her head up with one hand.
On the computer screen was a message sent to her by Rita.
They were using an international chat software.
This chat software was actually developed by the NOK forum.
But unlike the NOK forum, this is a publicly listed app that can be found in app stores.
Similarly, after adjusting the language used, the system can automatically convert the other party's language to your own, regardless of what language they use.
This is why the experts on the NOK forum, despite coming from various countries, can still post together harmoniously.
After all, not everyone has a talent for languages and can be proficient in the languages of various countries.
Because she hadn't been to Earth for a long time, more than two hundred years, Ying Zijing had become rusty with some of the things she used to know.
So she changed the system language to Latin.
It wasn't originally on the chat software, so she specifically went to 10 and asked him to add it.
I've searched the entire city of Shanghai, but I can't find a single person who matches you.
Ying Zijin didn't reply to that question, but instead asked a question.
What time do you meet tonight?
Rita replied instantly.
Don't even mention it. We won't be able to see each other tonight. If I look at the time, it'll be tomorrow, around 2 AM.
[I don't understand. Are you saying poisoners are bats? Do they all prefer to be nocturnal? You know that third poisoner I hired last time, right? He was so active on the forums, it was like a fake account.]
Ying Zijing remembered the ID "Please Take a Pill" and raised an eyebrow.
[I know, she's quite active. Did she go sell sunscreen?]
Rita gets quite angry when the topic comes up.
Yes, he went to sell sunscreen on the beach near my house, so it was quite convenient to ask him to come. However, he didn't arrive until late at night. If it weren't for the box of hydrating face masks he gave me, I wouldn't have let him leave so easily.
However, this was just talk.
Catching the poison master is harder than climbing to heaven.
Let alone the third-ranked poison master, any one of the top ten poison masters is covered in poison from head to toe.
Even if you touch them against their will, you'll unknowingly get infected.
Ying Zijin hesitated for a moment.
Yes, I'll be there on time.
Okay, I'll wait for you. But speaking of which, what did you want to see the First Poison Master for?
[Combating counterfeits.]
【？？？】
After sending those two words, Ying Zijin changed her online status to invisible.
At that moment, there was a knock on the door.
The man's voice was low and gentle, like the quiet flow of the deep sea.
"Yaoyao, may I come in?"
Ying Zijing was still leaning against the bed. Upon hearing this, she raised her eyes but did not get out of bed. Instead, she pressed the switch next to the bedside.
The door to the room opened.
One good thing about the Queen Hotel is that it has plenty of switches, which is convenient.
Fu Yunshen walked in and then closed the door.
However, his eyes remained lowered, and he didn't look at the bed.
Ying Zijing looked at him thoughtfully for two seconds: "I'm not wearing pajamas."
"..."
Fu Yunshen slowly turned his head, his eyes slightly deep.
Ying Zijing's gaze had already returned to the computer screen. She didn't feel anything was wrong and said naturally, "Isn't this just following your instructions?"
"..."
A few more seconds of silence followed.
“I just went downstairs.” After a while, Fu Yunshen spoke, “and saw the Meng family.”
"The Meng family?" Ying Zijin thought for a moment and nodded slightly. "I think I've heard Elder Mu mention them before."
“A true family of ancient doctors, whose direct descendants all know ancient medicine.” Fu Yunshen sat on the sofa, his long legs crossed, and smiled. “However, on the surface, they call themselves practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine.”
Ancient medicine and traditional Chinese medicine are different.
Traditional Chinese medicine originated from ancient medicine.
Just like many modern Chinese martial arts, they are actually hand-to-hand combat techniques left over from ancient martial arts.
Even without internal energy, one can still possess a certain level of skill.
