Chapter 268 Will You Kick Mommy Away?

Xia Xingxing's childish voice contained a maturity beyond his years, and with one sentence, he stumped Huo Nanxiao.

Huo Nanxiao fell silent, his handsome face now displaying an unprecedented depth.

Xia Xingxing pressed on, "Tell me, is that true?"

“If you want to stay with your mother, I can accept that. After all, you are her child and grew up with her. If I forcibly take you away, you will definitely resent me. So, I can promise you that your mother can come here anytime. I will arrange a room for her to stay and live with you.”

"What does this mean?" Xia Xingxing asked, puzzled.

Huo Nanxiao said, "I will not forcibly separate you."

Xia Xingxing remained silent for a long time, his small hands gripping the pillow. After a moment, he shook his head.

Huo Nanxiao frowned: "You're not willing?"

"What if Xia Wanwan's illness is cured one day?" Xia Xingxing asked.

Huo Nanxiao's expression turned cold.

Xia Xingxing was unhappy and questioned, "Back then, were you going to kick my mommy out?"

"No," Huo Nanxiao answered without hesitation.

Xia Xingxing didn't believe Huo Nanxiao's words at all. He coldly snorted, "You say that now, but when the time comes, you'll definitely kick my mommy out, and maybe you'll even kick me out, leaving Huo Yuan for that woman. Don't think I don't know what you're plotting, I know everything!"

"I never intended to get rid of you," Huo Nanxiao denied.

Xia Xingxing said, "You don't want to send me away because I still have value to you. You need me and Huo Yuan, that's why you say that. Can you promise me that after that woman named Xia Wanwan wakes up, Huo Yuan and I can stay by Mommy's side forever?"

His innocent eyes were fixed intently on Huo Nanxiao, with a seriousness he had never shown before.

Huo Nanxiao remained silent; he had no way to answer Xia Xingxing's question.

His silence also greatly disappointed Xia Xingxing. His eyes, which used to shine like stars, dimmed at this moment. He lowered his gaze and continued to curl up in a corner of the sofa.

Although Xia Xingxing longed for a father, he knew even more clearly that his father didn't love him that much. He didn't even care about his mother, so how could he possibly genuinely care about his mother's child?

But Xingxing is also a young child, and he envies other children who have their fathers' love. He is afraid that he will be won over by Huo Nanxiao's few words, so he might as well not make up with Huo Nanxiao in the first place.

The little guy coldly said to Huo Nanxiao, "Chu Chu is still waiting for us at home. She's a girl, timid, and needs someone to keep her company. When do you plan to send us back?"

"If you're worried about her, I can bring her to live with us. Don't worry about anything else." Huo Nanxiao's attitude was very firm.

Xia Xingxing pouted, "You're being unreasonable. I don't want to talk to you anymore. Go away."

Huo Nanxiao lowered his eyes and stared intently at Xia Xingxing.

The little guy was very firm in his stance.

"Then you can sleep here peacefully."

Huo Nanxiao also remembered to place a blanket next to Xia Xingxing.

Unlike Huo Yuan, Xia Xingxing wasn't timid and needed someone to stay with her. She covered herself with the blanket and fell asleep immediately. Soon, the sound of snoring could be heard from the sofa. Xia Xingxing was sleeping soundly.

Huo Nanxiao looked at him intently, and finally carefully carried Xia Xingxing back to bed, letting him sleep on the spacious and comfortable bed, while he closed the door and went to the guest room next door.

Huo Yuan was still awake.

Huo Nanxiao knocked on the door twice.

Hearing the noise, Xia Ningxi hurried over and opened the door to find Huo Nanxiao standing outside. She was quite surprised: "Why are you here?"

"Why isn't A-Yuan asleep yet?" Huo Nanxiao asked.

Xia Ningxi said, "He wants to sleep with the stars."

Huo Nanxiao walked past Xia Ningxi and sat down next to Huo Yuan, asking softly, "Do you want to be with Xingxing?"

Huo Yuan nodded.

“Okay, you can come to the master bedroom with me to sleep.” Huo Nanxiao readily agreed.

But Huo Yuan was not happy to hear this and shook his head, saying, "No, I want to stay here."

"Didn't you miss Xingxing?" Huo Nanxiao asked.

Huo Yuan held Xia Ningxi's hands in both of his: "Then Daddy can send Xingxing over."

Huo Nanxiao was stunned, and for a moment he didn't know how to refuse Huo Yuan.

"Can't Daddy do it?" Huo Yuan blinked his big eyes at this moment.

Huo Nanxiao said, "Xingxing is already asleep, so it's inconvenient to bring it over."

"Ah? Okay then." Huo Yuan's face was clearly full of disappointment. He opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word. In the end, he walked to his bed with a wronged expression, hugged the quilt, and went to feel sad in his heart.

At this moment, Huo Nanxiao felt that leaving the two brothers was a terrible mistake.

He felt uneasy and said to Xia Ningxi, "Take Ayuan to my room to rest. I'll stay here tonight."

"Huh?" Xia Ningxi was taken aback and hesitated for a moment: "But that's your bed..."

“It’s not like you haven’t slept with them before,” Huo Nanxiao replied.

Xia Ningxi simply took Huo Yuan back to Huo Nanxiao's room to sleep.

Huo Yuan was also well-behaved and did not...

He disturbed Xia Xingxing, but then crawled into the blanket and slept next to him with a big smile on his face, as if being able to sleep with his younger brother and mother was the happiest thing in the world.

However, after this precedent was set, Huo Yuan demanded to sleep with Xia Xingxing and Xia Ningxi almost every day, which put Huo Nanxiao in a difficult position.

Before Xia Ningxi and Xia Xingxing were brought back to Lanyuan, Huo Yuan was very obedient to his father and very attached to him. But ever since Xia Ningxi and the others appeared, Huo Nanxiao felt that he was the only one who was superfluous in the whole family.

Huo Nanxiao wasn't jealous, it's just that neither of his sons were close to him, which made him somewhat uncomfortable.

So after get off work, Huo Nanxiao went out and bought a lot of children's toys, and also bought a lot of snacks and cakes that children like to eat.

The two sons were only enthusiastic when they received toys and snacks; otherwise, they wouldn't even glance at Huo Nanxiao, which put Huo Nanxiao in a difficult position.

"Young Master Huo, what's wrong?" The butler couldn't help but ask when he saw the worried look on his face.

Huo Nanxiao asked with a serious expression, "Why isn't the child close to me?"

Upon hearing this, the butler immediately smiled and said, "So that's what Young Master Huo was worried about. Actually, it's not that the young masters don't like you, but they prefer the young mistress. As long as you treat the young mistress well, they will feel your kindness and naturally like you."
