Chapter 252 Will Daddy abandon me whether I live or die?

Nobody knew where Huo Nanxiao's son came from.

Perhaps only Xia Ningxi can give a definite answer to this.

At this moment, Xia Ningxi was trapped in a small room. Her cell phone and all communication devices had been confiscated. The only electrical appliance in the room was a television, but it wasn't a VIP one, so there was no way to watch any VIP TV.

Xia Xingxing's face fell: "Mommy, why did they arrest us?"

Xia Ningxi said, "It's probably to deal with Huo Nanxiao."

Xia Xingxing said, "Then why don't you just go after Daddy?"

Xia Ningxi said with a smile, "Because they don't dare."

"I understand. It's because they're incompetent that they can only target a little kid like me," Xia Xingxing said.

A gentle glint flashed in Xia Ningxi's eyes: "Yes, Xingxing is right, but are you afraid?"

The little guy shook his head and said very seriously, "I'm not afraid."

Xia Ningxi was surprised: "Why aren't you afraid?"

“Because they dare not hurt me,” Xia Xingxing said firmly.

A hint of surprise flashed in Xia Ningxi's eyes.

The little guy said, "I am the young master of the Huo family. If anything happens to me, Daddy will not let them off the hook."

Xia Ningxi lowered her eyes: "Xingxing, have you ever thought that Huo Nanxiao cares about you so much because he sees you as Huo Yuan?"

The little guy said, "It's okay, we're brothers. Daddy cares about Huo Yuan, so he'll definitely care about me too, right? Mommy, he's my daddy, isn't he? He won't abandon me, will he?"

The little guy blinked his pitiful big eyes, looking at Xia Ningxi, eagerly seeking an answer.

Xia Ningxi was unaware of this.

No matter what, Huo Yuan was Huo Nanxiao's child for four years. Although he didn't keep Huo Yuan by his side to raise him all these years, he must have had feelings for him, right?

But what about the stars?

Huo Nanxiao is unaware of Xingxing's existence. Will he come to save them?

Han Musen was personally sent to prison by Huo Nanxiao back then, and he hates Huo Nanxiao to the core. Now that he has the two of them in his hands, he will definitely make extremely unreasonable demands.

Huo Nanxiao is not easily threatened, much less will he compromise under threats.

Xia Ningxi didn't know if he would do it to save Xia Xingxing.

"Mommy, don't you know if Daddy will come to save me?" Xia Xingxing raised her head, blinked her big, pitiful eyes, and looked extremely aggrieved.

Xia Ningxi took a deep breath and tried to maintain a smile: "Xingxing, don't worry, we'll get out of here."

"But I've been locked up here for so long, and there isn't a single toy here." Xia Xingxing's face fell. But that wasn't the most important thing. The most important thing was that he was hungry.

Xia Ningxi asked, "Are the stars hungry?"

"Mmm." Xia Xingxing's stomach was growling loudly with hunger, and he nodded obediently.

Xia Ningxi went to knock on the door.

"What are you doing?" came an impatient voice from outside the door.

Xia Ningxi asked, "Aren't you going to prepare any food?"

With a whoosh, the door opened, and a young man with a buzz cut said impatiently, "Don't you know your own situation? You still want to eat?"

Xia Ningxi said, "Even if they are hostages, there's no reason for them to starve to death, is there?"

Du Chuan thought this made sense, so he ordered his men to prepare some food.

Xia Ningxi glanced around, trying to figure out where she was being held.

Du Chuan snapped, "What are you looking at? Trying to escape?"

Xia Ningxi smiled slightly: "Why would I run away?"

Du Chuan sneered: "It's good that you have the self-awareness. Let me tell you, this place is full of our people. If you stay here obediently and go somewhere else, we won't make things difficult for you. But if you dare to run away on your own, then don't blame me."

"I won't run away, don't worry." Xia Ningxi smiled gently.

Du Chuan snorted coldly: "You had better keep your word."

Xia Ningxi said, "The reason I didn't run away is because I know that in a few days, you will personally send me away."

"What do you mean?" Du Chuan asked, puzzled.

Xia Ningxi said, "I recently started working at the Imperial City Research Center and just took over the scientific secrets in the laboratory. If I disappear, it won't be long before the director reports it to the police. Once the director reports it, the higher-ups will receive the news. If you don't know me, you can search online to find out who Xia Ningxi is."

Her voice was clear and crisp; she was clearly a delicate girl, yet her words were firm and powerful.

Du Chuan sneered: "You're just an unknown little doctor, who cares whether you live or die!"

When the food arrived, he handed it to Xia Ningxi and then slammed the door shut.

After closing the door, Du Chuan asked his henchman, "Can you check now, is Xia Xixi very famous?"

The younger brother immediately took out his phone to check: "They're all scandals."

Du Chuan sneered: "I knew she couldn't possibly be a big shot. If it weren't for Huo Nanxiao's son by her side, who would even know who she is?"

"Wait a minute... Boss, this Xia Xixi seems to be from an overseas Szu medical team. Our deputy mayor and the president of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital personally spent a lot of money to hire her from abroad."

My younger brother suddenly yelled when he got to the end of the scroll on his phone.

Du Chuan: "What?"

The younger brother wiped the cold sweat from his forehead: "Could he really be an expert?"

At this level, and especially for experts personally invited by those in power, they are no longer ordinary people.

"Young Master Han brought her here, is everything alright?" the underling asked tremblingly.

They ignored Xia Ningxi's words, thinking she was talking nonsense.

Xia Ningxi was holding a plate with some random things on it. It looked quite delicious, but the portion was small, so it was probably just something she grabbed to get by.

Because there wasn't much food, Xia Ningxi gave her food to Xia Xingxing.

The little guy was starving and wolfed down his food, but when he was halfway through, he remembered that Xia Ningxi hadn't eaten either, so he stopped and said, "Mommy, I'm full. Mommy can eat the rest."

The stars were very obedient and handed everything to Xia Ningxi.

Xia Ningxi said, "Mommy isn't hungry."

"I'm full. It would be a waste if Mommy didn't eat," Xia Xingxing said.

Seeing that Xia Ningxi refused to eat, he personally fed her a piece of meat.

Xia Ningxi had no choice but to finish the rest of the food.

The two of them finally regained some of their strength.

Looking at the dimly lit room, Xia Xingxing wanted to go out, but knowing there were people everywhere outside, she could only lie on Xia Ningxi's lap and whisper, "Mommy, I miss Chuchu. Chuchu will be scared if she doesn't see me and Mommy at night."

Xia Ningxi gently comforted her, "Chu Chu is just as strong as you. She will definitely be able to take good care of herself."

Xia Xingxing said, "But how long are we going to be locked up here? Are they going to use me to threaten Daddy? Will Daddy care if I live or die? Huo Yuan is at Daddy's house now, he doesn't even know I exist, right? He always thought he only had one son, right? He doesn't even know I'm his son, right?"
