After the Lin family and Lin Xi broke up, they didn't want her to interact with others and asked her to open a medical clinic in another place.
Now Zhongxiao came forward to buy it. Although he gave up some money and went out, this was the only way to break the situation.
Not only can he save the shop, but he won't be unable to deal with the Lin family.
"Let's go." Zhong Xiao's heart was not as relaxed as it seemed.
The Shangshu Mansion has been in chaos these past few days, and Xiao Chunhe was ambushed on his way back to Beijing!
No one knows that this Minister of Revenue, on the surface, does not support any of the princes in Chizhong, but secretly he is his man.
When Xiao Chunhe was seriously injured, he confessed to him that Xiao Xian was his son... and begged himself to save his son's life.
He insisted that this incident had nothing to do with Mrs. Xiao, but there was no evidence.
Zhong Xiao had thousands of thoughts in his mind, and an idea flashed in his mind, maybe these things were related to Lin Xi.
On the day of the polo match, Lin Xi not only had an unpleasant quarrel with Xiao Xian, but also had a few words with Mrs. Xiao.
But...how could she be so capable?
This must be a coincidence.
Dispelling the suspicion that arose in his heart, Zhong Xiao looked at Su Yangyang next to him who had a sad face.
He thought for a moment and decided it would be better not to talk about her senior brother's life experience for the time being.

As the host, Lin Xi was enthusiastically led by the waiter to the best box on the fourth floor.
While waiting for the food to be served, she opened the window and looked into the distance in the night breeze.
The terrain here is very high, and you can have a panoramic view of the streets of the capital, and you can even vaguely see the palace.
But you can't see thousands of miles away.
I wonder what my brother thousands of miles away is doing at this time. Is he happy after receiving the money he sent?
What will he say when he finds out about the restaurant he owns in the future?
Lin Xi was a little proud that she secretly killed her brother before he came to the capital.
This saves me a lot of nagging.
She recalled her naughty childhood and her fights with the boys in the village.
At that time, she had been learning swordsmanship for half a year, and her self-control skills were good, and she was sure that she would win no matter how many opponents there were.
It was supposed to be a sure win, but instead of thinking about the other party, only one person was called.
This person is worth a hundred people, and she was carried home by her brother in a disgraceful manner.
Lin Xi didn't like the condescending way the scholar next door spoke. Once, he stole two chickens from his house and roasted them under cover of night.
The brother noticed the chicken feathers on the soles of her feet and chased after her with a ruler to hit her. But since she was ten years old, her brother could no longer catch up with her.
Lin Xi was running around the house like "King Qin running around the pillars". Seeing that his brother was getting more and more out of breath after chasing him, he had to stop and accepted his fate and stretched out his hand to accept punishment.
The brother raised the ruler very high, and she closed her eyes and shouted, "I know I was wrong." When the ruler was put down, it was very light, like scratching an itch.
The next day, the brother secretly placed copper coins in the scholar's courtyard, not only to apologize for her, but also to save her little face.
When Zhongxiao walked in, he saw her holding her hands on her chest and leaning against the window with a gentle smile.
It was not as unkind as the previous times, it seemed like they were back on the night when they first met on the boat.
He was inevitably moved and lowered his tone to call people.
"Linxi."
The person by the window turned his head, the warmth in his eyes instantly faded, leaving only coldness.
After a while, Lin Xi put away her coldness and asked with a smile: "It's opening today. His Royal Highness King Xin and Miss Su came here specifically to patronize the business?"
Zhongxiao was stung by the coldness in her eyes and felt a little uncomfortable. He said calmly: "I am willing to buy that medical clinic at the market price."
Lin Xi suddenly realized: "So Miss Su still wants to run a medical clinic there?! You should have said it earlier!"
Su Yangyang was a little embarrassed: "I wrote you a letter, but you didn't reply to me."
Lin Xi looked a little embarrassed: "But you didn't say in your letter that you wanted to buy or rent a shop. You just wanted to avenge Uncle Lin's injustice. I thought you had some obstacles in your heart and you definitely didn't want to continue working there."
Su Yangyang looked at a loss, frowned heavily, and calmly uttered four words.
"Please give me some love."
Lin Xi lowered his head and played with his fingers: "It's not that I don't want to, it's just that this shop was sold the day before yesterday. It was sold to the Crown Princess's cousin, so I don't want to break the contract and offend others. Otherwise, for the same price, I will definitely keep an eye on you first! You should have told me earlier Yes!"
The capital is full of aristocratic people, and buyers are interested in the good location of the shop. If they can pay for it, they will have the means to deal with subsequent troubles.
Su Yangyang: "No, how could you sell it without saying anything?!"
Lin Xi's eyes were full of sincere admiration.
"Don't talk about this. The buyer will come to close the shop tomorrow morning, and things in Miss Su's hospital haven't even started to be packed yet. There are only a few hours left! How can you still have the energy to eat and chat around?"
The author has something to say:
Lin Xi: Kill the person before my brother comes and avoid being scolded.
Brother:......
Chapter 8
◎It’s not a no-brainer◎
All the subordinates:...
The eldest lady is really there.
The beautiful girl's face turned red, and her face was full of confusion as to whether she should continue to talk or go back and pack her things.
The woodwork was done, and although Zhongxiao was furious, there was nothing he could do since the prince was involved.
The prince and Prince Duan were facing each other tit for tat in the court. He always kept a low profile. Since he was hiding in the abyss, he could not attract the attention of either party.
Su Yangyang glanced at Zhong Xiao expectantly, and when she saw that the other party was indifferent, she lowered her eyes in despair.
Although the ladies of the aristocratic families in the capital often visited her shop, they were all dissatisfied with the fact that she was so sought after by the noble men and scholars of the aristocratic families.
The shop is now closed for ten days and cannot be opened immediately. Those orders that have been paid for long ago cannot be completed as scheduled. They are jealous of her talent and beauty, and are likely to add insult to injury.
The senior brother was still nowhere to be seen, and she was even more helpless.
Another reason why Su Yangyang wanted to run the medical clinic well was because she had guessed what Zhong Xiao was planning.
She could use the medical clinic to help him get information, and travel among aristocratic families.
The revenue from the medical clinic can also help him recruit troops in the future.
Su Yangyang looked up at Lin Xi and suddenly asked, "Have you seen my senior brother Xiao Xian in the past few days?"
Lin Xi: "I just left the house today, why does he want to take revenge on me?"
"...You misunderstood. My senior brother is actually a very nice person and would not do such a thing." Su Yangyang forced a smile, "Since the shop has changed owners, I won't bother you."
Lin Xi smiled back.
She didn't plan to do anything to Su Yangyang, there was no need.
Xiao Xian is a mad dog that bites everywhere. He has many innocent lives on his hands, and he has murderous intentions towards himself.
If you kill, you will kill.
Zhongxiao has a deep mind. Although his methods are ruthless, he is restrained and does not go crazy...
Moreover, he has a special status, so there is no need to kill him unless necessary.
In those dreams, Su Yangyang never harmed anyone intentionally. Many people died because of her, and none of them were due to her intentions.
Speaking of which, Su Yangyang was also very generous. After finding out that Xiao Xian deliberately poisoned her eyes, she was angry for two days before she could deal with him.
Knowing that for the sake of imperial power, Zhong Xiao indulged treacherous ministers and framed generals for treason, thereby attacking the military power and the aristocratic family. One hundred thousand people died in a battle, but he ignored her husband for a whole month.
After the other party apologized, the love was restored.
However, being so generous, Su Yangyang's mother gave them a pair of jade pendants respectively, hoping that the two of them could be as close as sisters.
When the younger sister finds out that her elder sister killed Xiao Xian, she should be angry for at least half a month and then turn the page, right?
Lin Xi thought this and looked at Su Yangyang's smile getting deeper and deeper.
Su Yangyang felt a little uncomfortable being looked at and subconsciously avoided looking.
Now that the shop has taken action, there is no need for her to stay here if she thinks of other ways to mediate.
Just as she stood up to leave, a man bumped in.
Lin Xi raised his eyebrows. This was not an opera troupe, so why did they keep doing it one after another?
Who said that the private rooms on the fourth floor are the cleanest? What is the difference between this and the vegetable market?
The man who broke in pursed his lips tightly, as if he was trying his best to endure something.
There was affection in his eyes and the corners of his eyes were slightly red. It seems that if you look at it a few more times, your heart will be slightly moved.
"Lu Yan? Are you in there? Princess Ningping is waiting downstairs to come out." There was a burst of messy footsteps outside, and the man's voice sounded like it was only a few feet away.
Zhongxiao frowned. Princess Ningping was the youngest legitimate daughter of the late Emperor. She had been pampered since she was a child. The dispute over the throne had also affected her wealth in some way.
Since she became a widow, she has become more romantic and uninhibited, and has attracted countless guests.
However, there are also many men with ordinary literary ideas and mediocre family backgrounds who cling to her to seek a future.
I just didn't want her to be so unscrupulous.
Su Yangyang was startled and stared at the man in front of her.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Lin Xi: "You still need to ask? It's obvious that Princess Ningping is the overlord and he is the bow."
