Chapter 131 Is He Still Your Son?

Although Xia Ningxi's reputation has been bad lately, Qu Huilan, unaware of the situation, doesn't like Xia Ningxi very much. However, in front of Huo Yuan, Qu Huilan feels that nothing is more important than Huo Yuan.

Since Huo Nanxiao and she are already having an affair, what's wrong with letting her come to the Huo family to take care of Huo Yuan?

Could it be that this woman is someone who can't stand the light of day?

Qu Huilan angrily questioned, "Then tell me, what about Ayuan? He's the only grandson of the Huo family. If anything happens to him, can you afford to compensate him?"

“A-Yuan can’t stay with her forever, so we can’t agree to his request,” Huo Nanxiao said in a deep voice.

Qu Huilan finally understood. She said, "You're afraid that A Yuan will find out he's not Xia Wanwan's biological son, right?"

Huo Nanxiao frowned.

Qu Huilan said, "A Yuan has been raised by Xia Luoluo since he was a child. I won't comment on whether Xia Luoluo is good to him or not. Even if she is good to Huo Yuan, she can't compare to his biological mother. I won't stop you if you like Xia Wanwan and want her to become the eldest daughter-in-law of the Huo family, but you must ensure that Huo Yuan can grow up healthily."

"Now that he finally has a doctor he likes, what's wrong with letting that woman come to the Huo family to take care of A-Yuan?" Qu Huilan questioned.

"Anyone is fine, but not her." The man's eyes were cold.

Qu Huilan demanded, "Why?"

Huo Nanxiao said, "If A Yuan wants to achieve his goals by crying, then let him cry until he's had enough."

Qu Huilan was furious: "What kind of father are you? It's one thing that you ignore Ayuan all the time, but now the child is making such a small request and you won't even grant it. Don't think I don't know that you and that woman have been having an affair for a long time."

Qu Huilan paused, her eyes sharpening considerably: "You're afraid to let A Yuan get close to her because you're worried about threatening Xia Wanwan, aren't you?"

Huo Nanxiao remained silent.

Qu Huilan said, "What's so good about Xia Wanwan that makes you treat her like this all these years? How can you abandon your own son for her? Is Xia Wanwan more important to you than Huo Yuan?"

“They are different,” Huo Nanxiao denied.

Qu Huilan said, "They are definitely different. One is your biological son, and the other is a person in a vegetative state lying in bed. How can Xia Wanwan compare to Huo Yuan?"

"Don't you know how many ridiculous things you've done for this woman over the years? If it weren't for you, how could A Yuan have lost his mother at birth? No matter how good Xia Luoluo is, can she have a biological mother?"

Even if you're going to find a stepmother for A-Yuan, you should find a normal person. Xia Wanwan has been bedridden for years! Are you planning to let A-Yuan spend his whole life without anyone by his side?

Qu Huilan grew angrier the more she thought about it.

Huo Xiuyuan pulled her back, saying, "Alright, don't get too angry and hurt yourself."

Qu Huilan said, "Look at your good son, he doesn't even care about his own son, is he even human?"

Huo Xiuyuan said, "Nan Xiao must have his own reasons for not letting that Dr. Xia take care of A Yuan. Let's not interfere."

"Do you think I want to get involved? Don't you see how hoarse A-Yuan's voice is from crying? He's my precious grandson. It's just a woman. Do you think it'll be easy for her to come and keep A-Yuan company?"

Could she possibly be hoping to become the eldest daughter-in-law of the Huo family? If she really had that ability, it wouldn't be impossible; a living, breathing person is better than Xia Wanwan, who's half-dead.

Qu Huilan had a very strong opinion about Huo Nanxiao.

Huo Nanxiao said with a serious expression, "That's enough."

"What? You won't let people talk about it? You've protected Xia Wanwan all these years, have I ever said anything to you?"

Huo Yuan is the only grandson of the Huo family, and the future heir. How can you treat him like this, unable to even grant such a small request? Is he not even your son?!

Qu Huilan angrily questioned.

Huo Nanxiao said, "Anyone can take care of Ayuan, but not Dr. Xia."

Huo Nanxiao's attitude was very tough.

He saw a small head peeking out from upstairs and knew it must be Huo Yuan eavesdropping.

"If A Yuan makes a fuss about this, let him cry his heart out. If any of you dare to indulge him, don't blame me for being ruthless." Huo Nanxiao turned and left.

Qu Huilan's face turned ashen; she was furious.

She had no idea what was wrong with Huo Nanxiao.

There have been rumors about Huo Nanxiao at the hospital lately. It's said that Huo Nanxiao has a good relationship with that female doctor, and Huo Yuan happens to like her. Why is Huo Nanxiao unwilling to accept it?

Qu Huilan was very angry. When she turned around, she found Huo Yuan standing upstairs watching them. Qu Huilan's heart skipped a beat.

"Ah Yuan, don't be sad. Your father was just saying that in anger. He still loves you very much," Qu Huilan quickly comforted Huo Yuan.

Huo Yuan asked, "Then why didn't Daddy let Dr. Xia come and keep me company?"

“Perhaps your father thinks Dr. Tao is more suitable for this job,” Qu Huilan explained.

Huo Yuan remained silent, but he knew perfectly well that Huo Nanxiao simply didn't want him to know who Xia Ningxi was.

“I don’t like Dr. Tao,” Huo Yuan said.

Qu Huilan said, "It's alright, Grandma promises you, I'll go and invite Dr. Xia back tomorrow."

"Really?" Huo Yuan asked, half believing it.

Qu Huilan said, "Would I lie to you?"

"Daddy often lies to me," Huo Yuan replied, feeling wronged.

Qu Huilan said, "Your daddy and I are not the same kind of people. If I promise you something, I will definitely do it, but the premise is that you can't cry anymore. Your eyes are all swollen from crying, and you're not cute anymore."

"Okay." Huo Yuan nodded obediently.

He stopped throwing childish tantrums.

Qu Huilan breathed a sigh of relief and asked the maid to take Huo Yuan to get something to eat.

When Huo Xiuyuan learned that Qu Huilan was going to bring Xia Ningxi back to the Huo family, he frowned and asked, "Didn't you hear what Nan Xiao said?"

Qu Huilan said, "Nan Xiao is afraid that if he invites other women home, it will be difficult to explain when Xia Wanwan wakes up. But how can Xia Wanwan compare to A Yuan?"

“Nan Xiao will be angry,” Huo Xiuyuan said.

Qu Huilan scolded, "So what if he gets angry? Aren't you afraid I'll get angry? I only have this one precious grandson. Who will compensate me if he cries to death? Are we relying on Xia Wanwan? If we really rely on her, our Huo family will be wiped out sooner or later."

"Why are you so venomous?" Huo Xiuyuan said with a dark face.

Qu Huilan said, "Don't worry about this. If Nan Xiao has any objections, then let him take Xia Wanwan and get lost. He may not care about A Yuan, but I do."

Qu Huilan changed her clothes herself, intending to go to the hospital in person.

As they walked out of the Huo family's old mansion, they encountered Huo Jinchuan.

"Where is Madam going?" Huo Jinchuan asked.

Qu Huilan hurried along: "I'm going to the hospital."

"Hasn't A Yuan already returned?" Huo Jinchuan asked, puzzled.

Qu Huilan said, "A-Yuan insists on having that Dr. Xia accompany him, so I'm planning to go and ask him to come back."

Huo Jinchuan's expression changed slightly.
