Chapter 130 No one but her will do

Huo Nanxiao wasn't a fan of cake, but seeing Huo Yuan's actions still gave him a strange feeling.

With a serious expression, he said to Huo Yuan, "You're being discharged from the hospital tomorrow. Are you coming back to Lanyuan with me, or back to the Huo family?"

"Wherever Dr. Xia goes, I will go," Huo Yuan replied.

Huo Nanxiao looked at Xia Ningxi with a cold gaze.

Xia Ningxi lowered her eyes: "A Yuan, I have several surgeries to perform recently, so I can't take care of you."

"Didn't you say you weren't going to have the surgery?" Huo Yuan stared blankly with wide eyes, not as easily fooled as he seemed.

Huo Nanxiao, who was standing nearby, said, "She has been taking care of you for almost a month. There are still many patients in the hospital waiting for her to perform surgery, and many surgeries can only be performed by her."

Huo Yuan was half-believing and half-doubting, and lowered his head somewhat dejectedly: "Then I'll go back to the Huo family."

The Huo family lived relatively close to the hospital, so Huo Yuan felt that it would be convenient for him to visit Xia Ningxi after returning home.

Huo Nanxiao asked Lu Qi to handle Huo Yuan's discharge procedures.

The next morning, Huo Nanxiao picked up Huo Yuan.

The little guy really thought Xia Ningxi was busy with surgery these days, so he didn't dare to bother her.

However, after returning to the Huo family, Huo Yuan discovered that a new doctor had come to take care of him. It was Tao Shiyi, the same doctor who had given him an injection at the hospital last time. This made Huo Yuan very unhappy.

He was sullen.

Qu Huilan asked, "Who upset A-Yuan?"

"Grandma, where is Dr. Xia?" Huo Yuan asked.

Qu Huilan was slightly taken aback: "She works at the hospital. Starting today, Dr. Tao will take care of you."

"What about Dr. Xia?" Huo Yuan asked.

Qu Huilan said, "Dr. Xia is just one of your attending physicians. Besides you, she has other patients. Now that you have recovered almost completely, you don't need her anymore. Ayuan is a good boy, so please don't cause her any trouble, okay?"

"No, I only want Dr. Xia!" Huo Yuan said angrily.

Qu Huilan frowned, looking very serious: "A-Yuan, you're a big kid now, don't act like a child."

"I don't care, I want Dr. Xia! I know you don't want her to stay with me, you're all liars!" Huo Yuan was very agitated. He ran into the room and slammed the door shut.

He was inside, wailing and crying so hard.

Where had Qu Huilan ever seen such a scene before?

Hearing Huo Yuan's cries broke her heart, but she was helpless and could only call Huo Nanxiao.

When Huo Nanxiao rushed back, the little guy had cried until his voice was hoarse.

"A-Yuan, open the door," Huo Nanxiao commanded in a deep voice.

Huo Yuan remained motionless.

Huo Nanxiao kicked the door open.

Huo Yuan, who was in the room, was startled. His two swollen eyes looked at Huo Nanxiao with tears in them.

The man strode in and picked up Huo Yuan, who was curled up in the corner.

"Why did you lock yourself inside?" Huo Nanxiao questioned.

Huo Yuan's eyes were red: "Daddy, I only want Dr. Xia."

A cold glint flashed in Huo Nanxiao's cold eyes, and he said in a deep voice, "No."

Huo Yuan cried and roared, "Why! Why won't Daddy let her stay with me?"

"Because she's not suitable."

Huo Yuan asked, "What do you mean by 'unsuitable'?"

“She has her own job and can’t revolve around you her whole life,” Huo Nanxiao replied.

Huo Yuan's eyes were red: "Daddy deliberately doesn't want Dr. Xia to stay by my side, right?"

Huo Nanxiao remained silent.

Huo Yuan said angrily, "I know you've been lying to me all along. You're a bad person. I don't like you anymore."

He picked up a pillow from the bed and threw it hard at Huo Nanxiao.

The Huo family was shocked by what they saw.

Qu Huilan never expected that Huo Yuan, who usually seemed so well-behaved, would have such a bad temper when he was angry, and that he would even throw things at people.

She was at a loss for what to do.

Huo Nanxiao, however, walked up to Huo Yuan with a cold and serious expression, picked him up in one swift motion, and slapped him on the bottom.

Huo Yuan burst into tears.

Qu Huilan couldn't bear to see Huo Yuan being beaten, and angrily shouted, "Why are you hitting the child?"

After saying that, he rushed forward and shielded Huo Yuan behind him.

"Grandma, Daddy hit me!" Huo Yuan wailed.

Qu Huilan quickly hugged Huo Yuan to comfort him: "A Yuan, don't be afraid, Grandma will protect you."

Seeing Huo Yuan crying so sadly, Huo Nanxiao felt bad, but thinking of Huo Yuan's rebellious appearance, Huo Nanxiao was also full of anger. He coldly warned Huo Yuan: "Behave yourself and don't throw a tantrum."

Huo Yuan's tears fell in a steady stream.

Qu Huilan shouted angrily, "Enough! You've scared the child!"

Huo Nanxiao remained silent with a blank expression.

Qu Huilan said, "Get out of here. Don't scare Ayuan like this. What kind of father are you?"

Huo Nanxiao turned and left with a dark expression.

Qu Huilan hugged Huo Yuan and gently comforted him, "Don't cry, Yuan, Grandma will protect you."

Huo Yuan's small body curled up in Qu Huilan's arms, but tears kept falling uncontrollably. Through his teary eyes, he asked, "Grandma, why won't Daddy let Dr. Xia stay with me?"

Qu Huilan said, "Dr. Xia has her own work to do and other things to do. She doesn't have time to take care of you."

“But I only want her.” Huo Yuan raised his head, his big red eyes looking pitifully at Qu Huilan, and said aggrievedly, “Grandma, can you let Dr. Xia come and keep me company? Daddy is so fierce, I don’t like Daddy.”

Qu Huilan didn't know why Huo Yuan liked that Dr. Xia so much. Thinking of Huo Nanxiao's attitude, she fell silent.

"Grandma doesn't want to agree either?" Huo Yuan asked in a hoarse voice.

Qu Huilan couldn't bear Huo Yuan's pitiful little eyes, and hurriedly agreed: "Okay, Grandma promises you, Dr. Xia will come to keep you company, okay?"

"Okay." Huo Yuan nodded obediently.

Qu Huilan said, "Then you're not allowed to cry anymore, and you're not allowed to smash things, understand?"

"Okay, A-Yuan won't break anything," Huo Yuan promised in his childish voice.

Qu Huilan wiped away the little one's tears and waited for Huo Yuan to calm down before going downstairs.

Huo Nanxiao is still alive.

Huo Xiuyuan asked, "How is Ayuan?"

Qu Huilan replied, "A-Yuan wants Dr. Xia to take care of him; no one else will do."

"This woman really knows how to do things," Huo Xiuyuan couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

Qu Huilan's gaze fell on Huo Nanxiao, and she asked, "Nanxiao, how do you plan to handle this matter?"

"Let Ayuan stay home for a few days to adjust," Huo Nanxiao replied.

Qu Huilan said, "A-Yuan doesn't want to. You are A-Yuan's father, so you should think about the child. A-Yuan has cried so much about this that his voice is hoarse. Do you intend to let him cry for a few more days? Hurry up and invite that woman back. I can't bear to see my precious grandson suffer."

"She cannot come to the Huo family." Huo Nanxiao said coldly.

Qu Huilan asked, puzzled, "Why? Can't our Huo family afford to hire her?"
