Taming The Hidden Bigshot By Kissing Him

Chapter 809: Chapter 809 I Sincerely Wish Them Well

Qiao Xi opened her eyes and looked up at him: "What’s the matter?"

Huo Xingzhou’s tone was somewhat reluctant: "Zhong Yi sent a message saying that Old Master of Zhong Family is in a coma, currently being observed in the intensive care unit, and could be in life-threatening danger at any time. They’re hoping you can help. Also, Zhong Lingxiao is bringing a renowned doctor...though it’s likely not to save him."

As soon as Old Master Zhong dies, with so many witnesses at the ancestral hall.

And with the support of the Pei Family.

Zhong Lingxiao is very likely to take the position of power.

By then, the first to be eliminated would be Zhong Yi.

"Do you need me to prolong the Old Master’s life?"

"Yes."

"Alright, I’ll go take a look tomorrow morning. But with the Zhong Family there, I might not be able to get into the ward."

Huo Xingzhou’s eyes were deep: "When Zhong Lingxiao’s renowned doctor arrives, you’ll have a way to get in."

This was Zhong Yi’s backup plan.

"What kind of renowned doctor is so powerful?"

Huo Xingzhou said indifferently: "The one in bed, probably."

Qiao Xi didn’t react at first, but then she knew who it was.

It sure was the ’bedside doctor’.

But before they could wait for the renowned doctor, early the next morning they were met with a statement and interview from the eldest Young Madam of the Zhong Family.

In the video, Zhao Shuyuan was still dressed very appropriately, speaking in a gentle tone.

Over the years, as the only female head of the Zhong Family, she had attended many banquets and always conducted herself with grace. However, compared to those active socialite madams, she seemed a bit low-key.

This time, as the victim, her coming forward to make a statement at this critical moment caught everyone’s attention.

She must be coming out to condemn the unfaithful man and his mistress!

Zhao Shuyuan spoke calmly and naturally into the camera: "Regarding the relationship between Miss Lu and my husband Zhong Lingxiao, I want to respond here."

"The relationship between Zhong Lingxiao and I broke apart many years ago, with only the name of marriage remaining. We reached an agreement, and I do not interfere with his dating life outside. If he can find true love, I am willing to bless him, give up my position as wife, and pursue freedom."

"Lingxiao had already confessed to me about his relationship with Miss Lu. I was aware, and Miss Lu is not the ’third party’ everyone believes her to be. It’s just that our identities are somewhat awkward. The incident happened suddenly, and Lingxiao and I have decided to divorce. I also hope everyone will show mercy and not harm a woman who is pursuing true love."

"I genuinely wish them well."

When Zhao Shuyuan said her well-wishes, she was very calm, and it was sincere.

Hoping they can be locked together and not harm others.

When Zhong Lingxiao came to her and proposed a deal: if she said these things online, they could divorce.

Zhao Shuyuan was desperate to leave this mire, thinking that Zhong Yi could crush Zhong Lingxiao in the ancestral hall incident, but it didn’t happen.

She couldn’t wait any longer!

So she agreed to the request.

As long as she could divorce, she’d do anything.

After all, she had already sold her soul once before.

Zhao Shuyuan uploaded the video online, causing an uproar.

Those gossip-loving people were looking forward to seeing the legitimate wife tear into the mistress and have a big fight. But they didn’t expect Zhao Shuyuan to be so "virtuous," repeatedly insisting on divorcing her husband and fulfilling his "true love."

Is Lu Yingxue the true love?

Does that mean her being the mistress can be forgiven too?

Opinions online quickly divided into two camps.

"The legitimate wife has come out to clarify; Lu Yingxue is not the mistress but the true love, why do you netizens keep clinging on?"

"Yes, true love is priceless! However, Lu Yingxue shouldn’t have deceived everyone by saying she’d never marry, but now she has found true love."

"Don’t forget the charitable activities the Lu Family has done over the years, the monthly free clinics helping countless families, and the consultations at the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall. Even if Lu Yingxue’s character is lacking, the good she has done cannot be denied because of her relationship issues. We support Lu Yingxue!"

"Don’t distort the truth, how do we know the legitimate wife isn’t being used as a scapegoat! Only you fools would believe that Lu Yingxue is innocent. If she was truly innocent, why not wait until after the divorce to get involved?"

"And those things she said in bed, even if she wasn’t a mistress, she still cheated! She was hooking up with her fiancé’s brother before her engagement to Zhong Yi ended! Her character is flawed, irredeemable!"

"Stop explaining! It’s a nailed case of a scumbag and a slut! The legitimate wife isn’t innocent either."

"Trying to pacify public opinion, treating us like fools, aren’t they! Why doesn’t Lu Yingxue come out and apologize herself, she owes us an explanation! It’s a shame we trusted her so much!"

Both sides firmly held onto their opinions, and no one could convince the other.

However, the voices insulting Lu Yingxue have quieted down.

Zhao Shuyuan’s "emergency PR" was quite effective.

At this moment, Lu Yingxue was sitting inside a luxury car, her face and body bearing faintly treated scars, leaving some traces. It was calculated to be captured by the media just right.

Inside information was already out, saying she would resign from her position as president and had also faced family discipline.

She lowered her head to look at the statement from Zhao Shuyuan on her phone screen and let out a cold laugh.

This statement had salvaged some losses; who would’ve thought divorcing could be used as a bargaining chip with Zhao Shuyuan, and now Zhong Lingxiao wanted a divorce.

Her reputation had already deteriorated to this extent, and adopting a different identity in the Imperial Capital wouldn’t be bad either.

For example, the Young Madam of the Zhong Family.

She just needed to lay low for now until the online uproar died down before reemerging to end things.

People have short memories; with time, everything would fade. When she made greater achievements in Chinese medicine, they would swarm back like flies.

It’s just that maintaining the previous image of purity was impossible; she’d have to take another route.

The car stopped at the entrance of the Imperial Capital Hospital, where reporters were waiting.

Lu Yingxue lifted the hem of her skirt and got out of the car. She wore a mask and a long down coat on the outside.

She had come after receiving a call from Zhong Lingxiao.

Saying that Zhong Yi had stationed people at the entrance of the ward.

Lu Yingxue pursed her dry lips and walked into the hospital, taking the elevator.

Eventually, the elevator stopped at the entrance of the high-level intensive care ward. She immediately saw Zhao Shuyuan and Zhong Lingxiao talking together.

Lu Yingxue’s eyes flickered as she walked over.

The couple also noticed her presence and ceased their conversation. noveldrama

"Mrs. Zhong, Lingxiao." Lu Yingxue smiled a formalized smile, walking over as if nothing happened.

Shamelessness is invincible.

As long as she wasn’t embarrassed herself.

Zhao Shuyuan looked at her with a calm demeanor and said lightly: "Remember to sign the divorce papers. I’m leaving first."

Lu Yingxue watched her back with a smile and said to Zhong Lingxiao: "So you’ve decided to divorce just like that?"

Zhong Lingxiao’s expression was grim, "Even if I divorce, I won’t marry you. Don’t worry. I won’t let you slap yourself; you once vowed never to marry."

"Oh, then we’ll just have to date for a lifetime, won’t we? Since I’m your true love now."

"Stop with the nonsense, go check on the Old Master. There are many eyes and ears in the hospital, you know what effect I want."

Lu Yingxue pushed open the ward door and said, "Don’t worry, our Lu Family’s methods won’t be detected."

Ensuring a silent and peaceful departure for the Old Master.

Zhong Lingxiao chuckled and followed her inside.
