Chapter 208 Incident

Upon hearing this, Fu Xiyu was completely stunned. His eyes widened, and his hand gripping the door trembled violently.

In all his years, this was the first time he had ever seen such a bold girl, daring to speak to Huo Nanxiao in such an attitude. Did she have a death wish?

Fu Xiyu couldn't help but wipe away a bead of cold sweat.

Facing the enraged Xia Ningxi in the ward, Huo Nanxiao remained remarkably calm: "Don't push your luck."

Xia Ningxi said, "Are you determined to make me expose this?"

Huo Nanxiao's face was serious.

Holding Huo Nanxiao in her arms, Xia Xingxing watched the two arguing and muttered softly, "Daddy, please stop arguing."

Huo Nanxiao said, "A Yuan, Daddy is asking you, are you willing to go with Xia Ningxi?"

Xia Xingxing's eyes lit up. Was there even a question?

In his heart, his bad daddy is not even worth a single hair on his mommy's head!

However, fearing that Huo Nanxiao would see through her act, Xia Xingxing still hugged Huo Nanxiao tightly and said, "I really like Daddy."

Huo Nanxiao was very satisfied with the little guy's attitude. He said seriously to Xia Ningxi, "You are just Huo Yuan's private doctor. You are not qualified to take him away. Even if you want to take him away, you have to see if he is willing."

“Daddy, I haven’t finished speaking yet.” Xia Xingxing interrupted Huo Nanxiao and added, “I like Daddy very much, so I choose Dr. Xia.”

Huo Nanxiao's handsome face twitched violently.

Xia Xingxing's answer was exactly what Xia Ningxi had expected.

She watched Huo Nanxiao's face turn from white to black, and slowly curled the corners of her mouth. She knew very well what choices her child would make.

If Xia Xingxing really chooses Huo Nanxiao and abandons her, then Xia Ningxi has raised him for nothing all these years.

She gave a cold smile, watching Huo Nanxiao's ashen face with great interest.

Huo Nanxiao hadn't expected his precious son to be so disrespectful. He said to Xia Xingxing expressionlessly, "Go outside and sit down for a bit."

"Okay." Xia Xingxing obediently walked outside the ward and discovered that Fu Xiyu was also eavesdropping.

Fu Xiyu felt a little embarrassed, coughed lightly, and left.

As for Xia Ningxi in the ward, she coldly asked Huo Nanxiao, "One night should be enough for you to think it over. Are you going to leave with nothing or choose Huo Yuan? Have you made your choice?"

"I will not give Huo Yuan to you." Huo Nanxiao's attitude was very firm.

Xia Ningxi said, "Xia Wanwan is not without the possibility of waking up. As long as you take good care of her, she will wake up one day. When that happens, as long as she successfully gives birth to a child for the Huo family, no one will be able to stop her from taking over. So why do you insist on holding onto Huo Yuan?"

“He is my son, and I will not allow my son to be left to wander outside,” Huo Nanxiao said.

Xia Ningxi said, "He is also my son."

Huo Nanxiao said, "I can make you the chief physician of the capital city, make you famous and renowned. I can give you fame and fortune, and I can also give you 70% of my assets. Are you still not satisfied?"

“I’m not satisfied,” Xia Ningxi said.

Huo Nanxiao's aura turned cold: "Don't go too far."

Xia Ningxi said, "If you can't make the right choice, I can give you another option: I'll go to the media right now and announce it to everyone so that they all know that I, Xia Ningxi, am your wife and Huo Yuan's biological mother. That way, I'll have my reputation, my child, and my status. After thinking about it carefully, I think this is the most advantageous thing for me. If you don't know what to do, I can help you."

"Aren't you afraid of death?" Huo Nanxiao's aura turned cold.

Xia Ningxi smiled and said, "Does Young Master Huo still want to kill me to silence me?"

Huo Nanxiao said, "Before I came here, I had the public relations department do some public relations work. After Xia Wanwan wakes up, I will marry her."

Xia Ningxi tightened her grip on her side, a hint of disappointment flashing in her eyes, but when she thought of what Huo Nanxiao had done over the years, she felt relieved.

That's just the kind of person he is.

In his heart, what could be more important than Xia Wanwan?

Xia Ningxi's heart felt as if it were being slowly tortured, with blood flowing silently. Despite the pain, she forced a smile to appear strong.

"If you want to marry her, you'll have to see if I'm willing to divorce her first," Xia Ningxi sneered.

The two reached a stalemate.

Just then, a clear bell rang, breaking the deadlock.

Huo Nanxiao picked up his phone and glanced at the caller ID. It was a call from the guards at Ninghai Hospital. He had a bad feeling and walked aside to answer the call.

"Young Master Huo, something terrible has happened! Miss Wanwan is in trouble."

Huo Nanxiao's expression changed drastically. He didn't care about arguing with Xia Ningxi anymore and turned to rush out of the clinic.

Inside a VIP ward at Ninghai Hospital.

Xia Wanwan lay motionless on the hospital bed, her face pale and thin, her face devoid of color. She was on a ventilator, and her vital signs were very unstable.

Three doctors stayed by the patient's bedside without leaving for a moment.

"What's going on?" Huo Nanxiao asked angrily.

The doctor said, "Someone just came in and injected Xia Wanwan with medication that would worsen her condition. Fortunately, we discovered it in time and saved her. If we had discovered it a moment later, even a miracle wouldn't have been able to save Miss Xia."

Huo Nanxiao was furious: "Guards!"

Lu Qi rushed in: "Young Master Huo."

"Who did this!" Huo Nanxiao roared.

Lu Qi said, "It's already under investigation. Please wait a moment, Young Master Huo."

Huo Nanxiao was so enraged that he was almost burning people to ashes.

Lu Qi quickly retrieved the surveillance footage and found a photo of the person who did it. The person was completely covered up, so his appearance was not visible at all. However, after leaving the hospital, he drove directly towards Lingcheng.

Lingcheng...

Huo Nanxiao's expression hardened. He said, "Send more people to guard the ward 24 hours a day. No suspicious person is allowed to approach Xia Wanwan. If this happens again, I will have all of you beheaded."

Lu Qi wiped the cold sweat from his forehead: "Yes, sir."

Huo Nanxiao was worried about Xia Wanwan, so he stayed with her at Ninghai Hospital, but forgot to check the time.

It's time to leave work.

Normally, Huo Nanxiao would arrive at the Imperial City Central Hospital half an hour early to pick up Xia Xingxing and take her home, but today Xia Xingxing waited at the hospital until dark and still didn't see Huo Nanxiao appear.

Xia Xingxing asked, "Mommy, where did Daddy go? Why didn't he come to pick me up today? Does he not want me anymore?"

Xia Ningxi was also puzzled. Huo Nanxiao usually arrived at the hospital at 5:30, but it was already 7 o'clock and he still hadn't appeared. This was the first time she had encountered such a situation.

Thinking of the phone call Huo Nanxiao received at noon, Xia Ningxi fell into deep thought. Could it be that something happened to Xia Wanwan?

Probably so. The only person who could make Huo Nanxiao so anxious that he forgot to pick up his own child is Xia Wanwan.
