The whole family died tragically? The eldest daughter is the most powerful in the capital after her

Although Zhao Xiaozhi was dissatisfied that the person who came today was not Lin Ruoxuan, he was still quite polite to Lin Ruoxue.

After all, she is Lin Ruoxuan's elder sister, and he should respect her.

"Miss Lin."

Lin Ruoxue nodded, "Mr. Zhao, please take a seat."

Lin Ruoxue asked someone to pour tea for Zhao Xiaozhi, and said directly without beating around the bush: "Why did Mr. Zhao want to marry my eighth sister? As far as I know, you two didn't know each other before."

When Zhao Xiaozhi heard this, the expression on his face softened a little.

"Xuan'er and I did not know each other, but when I saw her for the first time, I was sure of her, and she was the only one in my heart."

Lin Ruoxue couldn't help but frown when she heard this.

"Mr. Zhao, my sister has nothing to do with you. It's inappropriate for you to mention her name directly."

Zhao Xiaozhi was stunned and realized that Lin Ruoxue seemed a little unhappy, so he hurried to explain.

"I am sorry for being so presumptuous. I hope Miss Lin will forgive me."

Lin Ruoxue nodded, and her expression improved a little.

"I heard that the Zhao family has a thousand-year-old snow lotus?"

Zhao Xiaozhi's eyes flashed, and in response to Lin Ruoxue's question, he showed a gentle smile.

"Indeed."

Lin Ruoxue squinted her eyes and looked at him. "Mr. Zhao, you'd better not lie. If you really want to marry my sister, that's fine. But if you want to use the thousand-year-old snow lotus as a gimmick to fool my sister, our Lin family will not let it go."

"You are playing with my sister's feelings and teasing our Lin family by doing this!"

Lin Ruoxue's tone became more serious, and Zhao Xiaozhi hurriedly said, "Miss Lin has misunderstood. Our Zhao family does have a thousand-year-old snow lotus. This is not fake. It's just that this thing is special and it is not convenient to show it to others."

Lin Ruoxue didn't say anything, but her eyes were full of distrust when she looked at Zhao Xiaozhi.

Seeing this, Zhao Xiaozhi was worried that Lin Ruoxue would misunderstand his intentions, so he said, "If Miss Lin doesn't believe it, why not go to the Zhao family another day to find out the truth."

Zhao Xiaozhi only paid attention to Lin Ruoxue and didn't pay much attention to Lin Ruoqiao beside him.

In order to avoid Zhao Xiaozhi recognizing her, Lin Ruoqiao put on a veil before going out.

Unexpectedly, this trick was so effective that Zhao Xiaozhi really didn't recognize him.

Lin Ruoxue saw the seriousness in Zhao Xiaozhi's eyes and felt a little relieved.

As long as the Zhao family has the thousand-year-old snow lotus, everything will be easy. The most worrying thing is that Zhao Xiaozhi will use Lin Ruoxuan as a gimmick, which will make things tricky.

After all, it was thanks to the thousand-year-old snow lotus that Gu Nanyuan was able to wake up. As long as Gu Nanyuan was fine, everything would be fine.

Zhao Xiaozhi did not notice anything unusual about Lin Ruoxue, he just tried his best to prove himself.

Seeing his anxious look, Lin Ruoxue said, "Since Master Zhao said so, I would also like to see the true appearance of this thousand-year-old snow lotus. I will come back in three days. Master Zhao, please don't break your promise."

Hearing that Lin Ruoxue had set a time, Zhao Xiaozhi was relieved. As long as Lin Ruoxue trusted him, it would be fine.

He was worried that Lin Ruoxue would not believe him, and would tell Lin Ruoxue everything after returning. Wouldn't that mean there would be no hope for him and Lin Ruoxue?

"In that case, I will wait for Miss Lin in three days."

Zhao Xiaozhi sent Lin Ruoxue and Lin Ruoqiao to the carriage, then turned and left.

When Lin Ruoxue and Lin Ruoqiao saw him leave, they couldn't help but show excitement on their faces.

"I didn't expect that Zhao Xiaozhi really has the thousand-year-old snow lotus. This will make things easier."

Lin Ruoxue beside her also nodded, "From the look on his face just now, he didn't look like he was lying."

The two of them couldn't help but look at each other, and both saw the joy in each other's eyes.

With the thousand-year-old snow lotus, Gu Nanyuan will be saved.

"But where is Eighth Sister..."

When Lin Ruoqiao thought of Lin Ruoxuan, her eyes were full of worry.

Do they really want to marry their sister to someone she doesn't like at all just for this thousand-year-old snow lotus?

This thought made Lin Ruoqiao frown. She didn't want Lin Ruoxuan to suffer such pain.

Lin Ruoxue didn't feel too worried when she thought about Lin Ruoxuan's matter.

"Of course, we can't marry Eighth Sister to the Zhao family. The reason why Eighth Sister wants to save General Gu is because she only has General Gu in her heart. We can't force her."

"Then how do we get this thousand-year-old snow lotus?"

Lin Ruoxue narrowed her eyes. "I have my own way to deal with this matter. I'll go back and tell Eighth Sister about this first, and we'll consider other matters later."

Lin Ruoqiao nodded and did not object.

The two returned to the Lin family and went to Lin Ruoxuan's yard first.

Lin Ruoxuan was a little surprised when she saw the two of them coming together.

"Big sister, what are you doing..."

"Eighth sister, we have something important to tell you."

Lin Ruoqiao didn't wait for Lin Ruoxuan to ask more questions and took her into the house.

Seeing this, Lin Ruoxuan immediately waved her hand and asked Hongya and Luqiao to leave.

"Big sister, Seventh sister, what's the matter?"

Lin Ruoqiao glanced at Lin Ruoxue. She couldn't tell Lin Ruoxuan about this matter, so she could only ask Lin Ruoxue for help.

Lin Ruoxue did not refuse and said, "Let me tell you. Today we will invite Zhao Xiaozhi to the teahouse in your name."

Lin Ruoxuan initially thought that the two of them came together because of something in the mansion, but she didn't expect it was because of Zhao Xiaozhi.

Thinking of Zhao Xiaozhi's situation, Lin Ruoxuan couldn't help but frown.

Could it be that the elder sister has changed her mind and wants to persuade her to marry Zhao Xiaozhi?

"Big sister, that man is not a good man, he..."

Before Lin Ruoxuan could finish her words, Lin Ruoxue interrupted her.

"You misunderstood. We are not trying to persuade you to marry him, but the thousand-year-old snow lotus in his hand is very important to us."

"And we made an appointment with Zhao Xiaozhi today to go to his house to see the snow lotus in three days. He did not refuse, and there was no sign of lying on his face. Instead, he agreed immediately, which means that the thousand-year-old snow lotus is in his hands."

Lin Ruoxuan was stunned for a moment when she heard this. She didn't expect Lin Ruoxue to be so fast, and she didn't expect Zhao Xiaozhi to agree to such a request.

However, she had no doubt at all whether the Millennium Snow Lotus was in Zhao Xiaozhi's hands. After all, in her previous life, she watched Zhao Xiaozhi sell the Millennium Snow Lotus in order to get an official position.

"Eighth sister, we have a plan that will allow you to get the thousand-year-old snow lotus without marrying Zhao Xiaozhi."

Hearing this, Lin Ruoxue suddenly raised her head and looked at Lin Ruoxue with shock on her face.

"Big sister, you..."

"Do you really have a solution?"

Lin Ruoxuan was also at her wit's end with Zhao Xiaozhi, and seeing that Gu Nanyuan's condition was getting worse day by day, she told her elder sister about her troubles in a hurry.
