Qiao Xi smelled the sour smell in the air and asked with a suppressed smile: "Is there any?"
What she cared about wasn't Mr. Zhong, but the face that looked similar to A Yi's.
"have."
Qiao Xi came closer to him, "Even her hair smelled sour."
"You kept shouting that name in your dream last night." Huo Xingzhou's eyebrows were light and his tone was a little condemning.
He is very domineering.
She was only allowed to think about him.
The closer you get into her heart, the more you can feel that there is a large part of her heart that belongs to that person. No matter what kind of emotion it is, Huo Xingzhou cares about it.
"sorry."
Qiao Xi hugged his strong waist with both hands, stood on tiptoes and covered his thin lips with her red lips.
Her initiative greatly relieved his resentment.
A smile appeared on Huo Xingzhou's jade-colored face, and he tapped her red lips with his fingertips: "This is sweet."
Knock knock.
There was a knock on the office door.
Huo Xingzhou frowned, and Qiao Xi broke away from his arms and said, "I'll open the door."
Qiao Xi opened the door and saw Zhou Yu standing outside with a flattering look on his face.
"Master Zhou, please come in."
Zhou Yu walked into the office empty-handed and didn't look like he was discussing business.
Zhou Yu came over to talk about Mr. Zhong and did not avoid Qiao Xi.
"Huo Er, I found out that Mr. Zhong is indeed engaged to Lu Yingxue, and the two families exchanged tokens. But he seems to be ambiguous with Xiang Mingzhu, and he plays both sides between the two sisters. There is no apparent purpose."
"But Zhong Yi has an eccentric personality and doesn't follow the rules. He must have a purpose for staying in Haicheng. Maybe it's to support Xiang Mingzhu and interfere in the preliminary selection of the needle test conference."
Zhou Yu's face didn't look good.
Qiao Xi's nails dug deeply into her palms.
Huo Xingzhou's expression remained unchanged: "Find someone to keep an eye on him. Don't keep an eye on him too closely."
"I know. I feel something is wrong about the Future City project. We previously assessed that the commercial value there is no longer great. Could it be that moving the cultural relics underground and protecting them with fiberglass can really bring them back to life?"
Huo Xingzhou's voice was low: "There is a precedent for this, and the feasibility is quite high."
So Mr. Zhong is not joking.
But Huo Xingzhou felt that his original intention was not the future city project, but that he wanted to find a reasonable reason to stay in Haicheng so that no one would suspect him.
Don't let him doubt it, and don't let the people in the imperial capital doubt it either.
Zhou Yu obviously heard the meaning of his words and said: "He is so ghost! He has quite a brain."
"How did he go from being an illegitimate child to today without a brain? At the end of the year, the imperial capital family gathering seemed to announce his identity as the heir." But the other son of the Zhong family is not a fuel-saving lamp.
Qiao Xi listened to their conversation and suddenly asked: "He is an illegitimate child. Didn't he live in the Zhong family before?"
Zhou Yu said casually: "I heard that he was brought back a few years ago, mainly by the eldest son of the Zhong family..." He smiled a little ambiguously, and Qiao Xi didn't understand what he meant for a moment.
Huo Xingzhou, on the other hand, glanced at him coldly.
Zhou Yu quickly shut up.
Qiao Xi guessed: "Isn't he good at that?"
"Yes." Zhou Yu said softly, "I have been married for many years and still can't have a child. He and his illegitimate son are more than ten years apart in age, and they have already married. Later, the Zhong family had no choice but to take back the illegitimate son. Originally, they wanted to I wanted the illegitimate child to get married early and have a child to be adopted by the eldest son, but I didn’t expect..."
The illegitimate son he took over was very capable and behaved with dignity.
To be able to take over the boss's position is completely unlike a child who was raised outside since childhood.
Qiao Xi grabbed an important point and asked, "When did he return to the Zhong family?"
“It could be four or five years, it could be seven or eight years, we’re not sure.”
Bringing the illegitimate child of the Zhong family home will definitely not be a big deal. This Young Master Zhong has only become famous in the past two years. The family struggle must have been fierce before.
All his past experiences have been erased by the Zhong family, and it is too difficult to find detailed information.
Qiao Xi frowned slightly, not even sure of the year.
"Sister-in-law, are you also interested in Mr. Zhong?"
"I'm just curious, so I just asked." Qiao Xi explained, "Because he has a good relationship with Xiang Mingzhu, I want to be more careful."
The other side is both friend and foe.
Zhou Yu looked at her and said hesitantly: "One more thing. Your little sister, Nurse Shu, was on a blind date recently. Lao Jin recommended a few young talents to her. She seems to be very interested in that Qin Yuan. Sister-in-law , please remind her that Qin Yuan is interested in her connections with Tianyuan Group, not her as a person."
Zhou Yu didn't believe any man would be willing to cuckold him.
He checked privately and found that Qin Yuan's company had a project cooperation with Tianyuan Group. He wanted to use the relationship between Shu Xue and Qiao Xi to promote this cooperation. If it succeeds, Qin Yuan can get a commission of one million yuan.
You can also be promoted to a senior level!
A wave of big profits!
Qiao Xi and Huo Xingzhou looked at each other, and she said with a smile hidden in her eyes: "Why don't you tell her yourself? Don't you even have contact information after knowing each other for so long?"
Zhou Yu hesitated for a while, then suddenly an idea flashed: "We don't have a good relationship, and we almost had a fight last time. I advised her that she must have a rebellious mentality."
Qiao Xi nodded, with a smile on her pretty face: "Okay, I will definitely tell her."
She recalled Qin Yuan and found that he was polite and not seeking profit as Zhou Yu said.
Maybe Mr. Zhou was jealous and made nonsense.
She wanted to ask Shu Xue what was going on later.
Zhou Yu was relieved when he heard her promise.
Now Shu Xue doesn't believe anyone but Qiao Xi.
Qiao Xi looked at his handsome face and repeated the old talk: "Mr. Zhou, Aunt Qian told me that you are a non-marriage person. Why don't you get married?"
Can't we make concessions for Shu Xue?
Zhou Yu's eyes were somewhat evasive, and he whispered: "Everyone has their own choice. Not everyone is suitable for marriage. I cannot bear the responsibility."
He said that and left.
Qiao Xi looked at Huo Xingzhou with a smile on her lips and said, "I think Mr. Zhou seems a little shaken. He thought he and Shu Xue's affairs were well hidden."
Huo Xingzhou stretched out his finger and tapped the tip of her nose: "You are the only one who knows how to tease people."
"Not at all."
Qiao Xi's tone was a bit coquettish.
…
the other side.
The internal forums of traditional Chinese medicine surged with hundreds of thousands of views, presumably due to the influx of laypeople through special channels.
The order of the primary draw has been announced, causing an uproar.
The list of the last group, the group of death, is shocking.
Almost all of the strongest opponents are in one group, and Qiao Xi's chances of qualifying are even slimmer. No matter Xiang Mingzhu, Li Songwen, or Han Jia, they are all strong opponents.
Many people are thinking that Qiao Xi must be doomed this time.
Unless she's a gifted monster.
Imperial capital, Lu family.
Lu Yingxue looked at the lottery ticket for the primary election and raised the corners of her mouth slightly. It also complements the beautiful and refined face, which is as picturesque as a dusty one.
She has been immersed in traditional Chinese medicine for more than 20 years. She has a faint medicinal fragrance and a jade-like fairy aura on her body. She is called the living female Hua Tuo by people in the imperial capital.
Her assistant whispered: "Miss, why are you laughing?"
Lu Yingxue's tone was pitiful and condescending: "I laugh at someone who overestimates his own abilities."
The assistant also laughed: "How can they compare to you? This disciple of the Chinese doctor Cheng Han must be in vain."
Lu Yingxue's eyes flashed with a faint light: "Then I'm really looking forward to losing her bet. My father also wants to hear that Cheng's acupuncture is not as good as the Lu's Ghost Sect Thirteen Acupuncture."
The assistant said proudly: "Then she will definitely lose!"
