Zhong Yi took the menu with his slender fingers and flipped through it casually.

The tone was a little lazy: "Let Wan Jiang kowtow to you."

Lu Yingxue narrowed her eyes slightly, wondering what he meant.

Wan Jiang quickly apologized with a sad face: "I'm sorry, Miss Lu. Mr. Zhong left this matter to me. I searched all over the auction houses and spent two million to buy this set of gold needles. It's all my fault that I failed you and Mr. Zhong’s trust.”

Wan Jiang looked pitiful, as if he really wanted to kowtow to Lu Yingxue and admit his mistake.

"Miss Lu, Mr. Zhong has been scolding me all day for this matter. He even wants to fire me..."

Wan Jiang burst into tears!

He had already prepared his full acting skills for this day.

He was destined to take the blame for Mr. Zhong, since he was a subordinate.

Lu Yingxue's face, with skin as white as snow, had a pale expression. She was not moved at all by Wan Jiang's words, and she felt very aggrieved.

The focus of the second round of the needle trial conference was all on Qiao Xi!

Some people praise her as the most beautiful Chinese medicine practitioner!

Praise her for her perseverance and tenacity!

Especially Huang Bingyi's comment about her, "The one who is better than the one who is good at it" made everyone think more highly of Qiao Xi!

Praise her for being as good as the traditional Chinese medicine in those days!

When Lu Yingxue came all the way here, she was scrolling through the good reviews on her phone, and her mood became even worse!

"Miss Lu, please forgive me for my negligence at work! Master Zhong said that if you don't forgive me, you will send me to the northwest to dig coal!" Wan Jiang cried with tears and runny nose.

So pitiful.

Lu Yingxue frowned, and out of the corner of her eye she caught a glimpse of Zhong Yi sitting aside indifferently.

She gently held the glass, moistened her red lips and said, "You go out first."

Wan Jiang's eyes looked around and finally said "yes".

It seems that he escaped with his life!

He quickly ran out of the box and closed the door tightly.

Lu Yingxue stroked the glass with her white and tender fingers, looked at Zhong Yi and said, "Wan Jiang can't be entirely blamed for the golden needle. If I had been more careful, I wouldn't have made a joke."

Zhong Yi moved the chair closer, his knuckled hand covering the back of her hand, his eyes flashing.

"It's my fault for trusting Wan Jiang too much. He is originally from my brother's side. It seems that he needs to be tested for his loyalty."

A big pot was thrown at Wan Jiang again.

"Ayi, I understand your situation in the Zhong family. But now the third round of competition is about to begin. If I can get the leader, it will also help you become the heir to the Zhong family. The old man is optimistic about you and will definitely announce it at the end of the year. .”

Lu Yingxue blinked her curled eyelashes, "We are one with honor and disgrace! But Mr. Huang seems to be biased against me, and something went wrong with the golden needle again. I don't seem to get any benefit from this matter."

She didn't trust Zhong Yi 100% in her heart.

She had suspected Zhong Yi's purpose, but she couldn't think of any motive.

She also didn't believe that Zhong Yi would ruin the engagement between the two families, because in the past two days, the old man of the Zhong family had sent many valuable things to the Lu family, saying they were some kind words.

That's obviously like a betrothal gift!

Zhong Yi slowly raised the corners of his lips, and a gentle smile appeared on his delicate and elegant face.

Those passionate eyes are even more affectionate.

"Yingxue, I have done so many things because of you. Mr. Huang has a weird temper and is stubborn. Do you blame me for not being appreciated by him? This makes me very sad."

Lu Yingxue raised her eyes and looked at him seriously: "Mr. Huang and Mr. Zhong are close friends. Can you help and let the old man convince Mr. Huang to accept me as his disciple? If I become the next successor of the Golden Needle Technique, what will happen to you? Say it’s a good thing.”

Zhong Yi secretly mocked in his heart.

This woman has a huge appetite.

It's not like Xiang Mingzhu, who can just dangle a carrot and make her rush forward irrationally.

Lu Yingxue is indeed Lu Yingxue!

"Ayi, you will help me, right?"

Zhong Yi withdrew his hand and said, "I'll try my best."

Lu Yingxue smiled a little playfully, but also a little seriously: "No, you have to do your best for my affairs! I heard the old man said that we will get engaged after the needle test meeting is over!"

It doesn't matter whether she can get the leader.

Obviously very satisfied with her.

Zhong Yi's throat rolled, and he said with a smile: "Okay."

"One more thing..." Lu Yingxue reached out and held his arm, feeling particularly intimate.

"My father said, can you give me the medicine factory as an engagement gift? Or we can pay for it. After all, the medicine factory is very important to our Lu family."

Lu Yingxue said this because she must win.

Zhong Yi heard the meaning of her words, and a bit of disgust flashed in his eyes.

Greedy.

But he said: "You don't need to spend money to buy it, it is a gift from me. I will give it to you after the needle test meeting and the engagement party."

As for what the situation will be like then, let’s talk about it later!

"Ayi, you are so kind to me! I originally thought you were just having fun with me, but I didn't expect you have me in your heart." Lu Yingxue smiled softly and lingeringly, but she secretly asked a private detective to investigate Zhongyi's past.

There is someone in Zhong Yi's heart.

His strongest and most sincere love must have been given to the woman whose name he still called in a coma.

It sounds like "Xinxin" or "Xingxing".

Zhong Yi's past is a mystery, and many people in the imperial capital want to know.

Lu Yingxue pursed her lips, leaned forward and asked, "Where did Ayi live before returning to the imperial capital? I suddenly realized that I don't know much about you, and I feel that I am a bad fiancée."

Zhong Yi's eyes turned cold, and he said with a hint of warning: "Are you so eager to dig out my past as an illegitimate child?"

Lu Yingxue was stunned for a moment, then came to her senses: "I'm sorry, I just want to get to know you as a person, and I don't want to rub salt in your wounds."

"I don't want to repeat what happened in the past. I hope you won't mention it again next time."

Zhong Yi's face paled a little, and his tone was a little cold.

He would not believe that Lu Yingxue wanted to know him. It seemed that Lu Yingxue wanted to explore his past and try to find out his weak spots like Zhong Lingxiao.

These people in the imperial capital all grew up in the vanity fair, and no matter how pure they look, they can't hide the dirty calculations in their hearts.

Lu Yingxue curled her fingers slightly and took a strategic sip of water from the water glass.

Fortunately.

The waiter quickly served the food, breaking the deadlock.

Lu Yingxue took the opportunity to serve Zhong Yi and said some soft words. The atmosphere between the two became much better again, as if those conflicts and temptations no longer existed.

But Lu Yingxue had made up her mind to send more people to dig out Zhong Yi's past!

That must be a weakness that can control him!

She doesn't want to be Mrs. Zhong who is like a vase, but she wants to be the mistress of the Zhong family who can compete with Zhong Yi.

……

the next day.

There was a big mess in the Huo family garden villa.
