Xia Ningxi lay in a pool of blood after a difficult labor from her two-year marriage, completely forgetting that it was the day of his wedding to someone else.
Huo Nanxiao said, "Leave th...
Chapter 1106 Your Love is Worthless
Cao Xiuxian was too lazy to argue with Huo Xiuyuan. Rather than wasting her energy on this, she might as well keep Huo Nanxiao around.
The Huo family is used to being arrogant and domineering. They think that having a little money means they can act lawlessly and marry whomever they want. Where in the world is there such a good thing?
Since Xia Ningxi has already chosen Ling Xiao, the Ling family will definitely protect her.
So what if the cost is high?
Things have already developed to this point, money and losses are no longer important, what matters is saving face.
Whoever can keep Xia Ningxi here today will save face.
Although the Ling family didn't like Xia Ningxi at first, the value Xia Ningxi could create for the Ling family was top-notch. She wouldn't let Xia Ningxi go because she was such a valuable person.
Cao Xiuxian watched all this coldly and ordered Ling Xiao, "I don't care what price you pay today, Xia Ningxi cannot leave, and neither can the three children!"
"Even if we have to pay a heavy price today, the Ling family will accept it. I want to see who has the audacity to run wild on the Ling family's territory!"
Cao Xiuxian's voice was filled with intense anger.
The three children were terrified and hid behind Ling Xiao, unsure whether to stay or leave. In the end, they all looked at Ling Xiao helplessly.
"Uncle Ling, what should we do now?" Xia Xingxing couldn't help but ask.
Ling Xiao asked calmly, "Do you want to stay or leave with the Huo family?"
The star said, "We can walk by ourselves, because I'm afraid you'll fight and I'll get hurt."
Huo Yuan said, "Can we take Mommy with us? I feel like they're all pretty fierce. What if they hurt Mommy?"
Chu Chu was very worried: "Uncle Ling, several of Daddy's planes have been burned. They must be worth a lot of money, right? Why don't we stop fighting? Hiring so many thugs is expensive. Give me all that money to buy lollipops. I don't know how happy I would be."
Huo Yuan nodded in agreement: "Yes, it's such a waste to waste so much money."
Cao Xiuxian was displeased when she heard what the three children said: "Who do you like more?"
One sentence left the three little ones speechless.
Cao Xiuxian said, "Xingxing, Chuchu, who do you like more? Do you like Uncle Ling a little more, or your daddy a little more?"
The two children, stumped by the question, exchanged a glance, unsure how to answer.
Xingxing said, "We like Uncle Ling a little more."
Cao Xiuxian's mood improved a bit: "If Huo Nanxiao comes and takes your mother away, do you know what to do?"
"I know," Xingxing nodded.
Cao Xiuxian asked, "What are you going to do?"
Xingxing said, "Stay away, and if you can, you can eat a handful of sunflower seeds."
Cao Xiuxian nearly lost her balance. She stared wide-eyed in disbelief, only to meet Xingxing's innocent, large eyes. Her lips twitched, whether from anger or not, it was hard to tell.
Xingxing, however, looked completely innocent: "Did I say something wrong?"
Chu Chu replied, "You misspoke. We can still eat some watermelon."
Huo Yuan: "Can I eat ice cream and lollipops too?"
Chu Chu: "I think it's okay."
Cao Xiuxian had a headache; she shouldn't have asked that question!
What can a five-year-old child say?
They're already doing very well if they can eat and sleep on their own.
"You all go hide to the side, so you don't get hurt," Cao Xiuxian sighed.
The star asked, "Do you need our help?"
Cao Xiuxian declined: "No need."
Xingxing obediently led her brother and sister to Lingxiao's side and tugged at Lingxiao's sleeve.
"Uncle Ling, do you need our help?"
Ling Xiao: "No need."
Xingxing: "Can we go back now?"
“Okay,” Ling Xiao agreed.
Xingxing is about to leave with her brother and sister.
Ling Xiao suddenly remembered something and subconsciously called out to Xingxing, "You're going back? Going back where?"
Xingxing said, "Let's go back to Mommy's house. Mommy is leaving, and we should go back too."
"?" Ling Xiao was completely confused.
Xingxing pointed southeast: "Uncle Ling, there's a gap there. If I leave from there now, it'll be possible."
"Why didn't you say so sooner?" Ling Xiao's face darkened.
Xingxing said, "Uncle Ling didn't ask either."
Ling Xiao: "So, if your father leaves from this place, it will work?"
"Of course." Xingxing was still checking the surveillance footage.
At this moment, the stars are like a mobile radar, knowing better than anyone where danger lies and where safety is paramount.
But this child only tells half the story, and if you say he's siding with outsiders, you don't know who he's siding with.
Sometimes Ling Xiao felt that the stars were on the side of the Ling family, and sometimes he felt that they were on the side of Huo Nanxiao, but when he actually asked him, his attitude was very firm in his support for him.
It's normal that a child who wasn't raised by your side from a young age isn't that reliable.
Ling Xiao instructed Ling Shuang: "Block all exits, especially the southeast direction. Strengthen security and do not allow anyone to let Huo Nanxiao leave."
"Okay." Ling Shuang quickly stepped down the stairs.
The Ling family also immediately sealed off the southeast exit.
But once their men were transferred, the defenses in the southeast became more stringent, while the defenses in other areas became lax.
The Huo family's bodyguards fought their way through the densely packed encirclement.
Flames soared into the sky all around.
Almost all the cars parked on the outskirts were set on fire.
Xia Ningxi was held by the wrist by Huo Nanxiao and staggered for dozens of meters.
Turning around and seeing the towering flames behind her, she said, "Let me go."
Huo Nanxiao countered, "Going back?"
Xia Ningxi said, "The entire Ling City belongs to the Ling family. If they don't want you to leave, you can't leave."
"How can you be so sure I can't leave?" Huo Nanxiao retorted.
Xia Ningxi said, "Can't you see the current situation? The Ling family can block all means of transportation in Ling City at any time. If they want to, not even a fly can fly out of Ling City, let alone you."
Huo Nanxiao, however, did not take it to heart.
Xia Ningxi was furious when she saw that he was unmoved: "You are an adult. You should know very well what you will face after the two families break up. It will be a huge blow to both you and the company. Huo Nanxiao, please wake up."
Huo Nanxiao said, "I have always been very clear-headed."
Xia Ningxi broke free of his hand: "I don't think you're sober, I even think you're crazy. You'd be crazy to make a scene at this critical moment! I'm already divorced from you!"
Huo Nanxiao said calmly, "None of that matters."
Xia Ningxi questioned, "Then tell me what's important?"
"As long as you stay by my side, nothing else matters." Huo Nanxiao looked into her eyes.
Xia Ningxi found it ridiculous: "Don't you think it's ridiculous to say something like that?"
"You said the same thing to Xia Wanwan back then, didn't you?"
"But how long has it been, and you've completely changed?"
"Huo Nanxiao, do you really love me? Ask yourself, is it really because you love me wholeheartedly that you want to get back together with me?"
"If you can treat Xia Wanwan so cruelly today, you'll treat me the same way in the future!"
"Huo Nanxiao, your love is worthless!"
