Chapter 3 Seriously Injured, This is Her Child

The hospital director was frantic; he never dreamed that the doctor he had hired at great expense would dare to say such a thing!

As for Xia Luoluo, she never expected that someone would be even more audacious than the deceased Xia Ningxi.

Xia Luoluo angrily scolded, "Who do you think you are? It's your good fortune to be able to perform surgery on Young Master Huo. Don't be so shameless. If you delay the young master's treatment, even ten worthless lives wouldn't be enough to compensate for it!"

"Do you want this good fortune? If you're so capable, go for it yourself." Xia Ningxi retorted without any politeness.

Xia Luoluo was speechless, and angrily grabbed Huo Nanxiao's hand: "Young Master Huo, listen to what she said. If anything happens to A Yuan, it will be her responsibility."

Xia Ningxi was amused: "That's ridiculous. Did I push Young Master Huo down the stairs? Why should it be my responsibility?"

Xia Luoluo, her face turning pale from being unintentionally exposed, hurriedly explained, "What nonsense are you talking about? Ayuan fell down the stairs on his own, no one pushed him. Are you even a doctor? Do you have any medical ethics? The child is already in the operating room, and you're not going in to save him? I think you just want to drag the Huo family's young master to his death. What grudge does he have against you!"

After saying this, Xia Luoluo turned around and yelled at the hospital director, "How can your hospital accept just anyone? Does this kind of person even deserve to be a doctor? Believe me or not, I'll sue you!"

The hospital director was so frightened that he apologized repeatedly and quickly arranged for Dr. Yang to perform the surgery.

However, Huo Nanxiao pulled Dr. Yang down just as he was about to enter the operating room!

Huo Nanxiao's cold eyes were fixed on Xia Ningxi, who was wearing a mask and only her eyes were visible. He gave her a command in a voice that could almost devour a person.

"You must perform this surgery."

"Oh!"

Xia Ningxi sneered and turned away.

Huo Nanxiao was furious. He took a step forward and grabbed Xia Ningxi by the neck.

Xia Ningxi cursed loudly, "Huo Nanxiao, you fucking bastard, let me go!"

A cold glint flashed in Huo Nanxiao's eyes. Very few people dared to speak to him like that, and his ex-wife was one of them!

Looking at the furious little doctor in front of him, who seemed ready to devour him whole, a layer of ice hardened in Huo Nanxiao's deep eyes. Xia Ningxi's image gradually appeared in his mind's eye. In his memory, that woman's eyes were beautiful, just like the aggressive little doctor in front of him...

Huo Nanxiao slowly curled the corners of his mouth: "If anything happens to Huo Yuan today, you can expect the entire hospital to pay for your mistakes."

He threw the woman on the ground.

Xia Ningxi coughed a few times, clutching her neck in pain, her mouth filled with the taste of blood. She turned around and looked at the man's cold back, her eyes glistening with tears.

She leaned against the wall, staggered to her feet, and said in a hoarse voice, "You'll regret this!"

She hated the man in front of her to the core, and naturally couldn't feel any affection for the young master Huo in the operating room!

However, once inside the operating room, Xia Ningxi's professional ethics prevented her from transferring all her hatred onto a child.

Looking at the child who had fainted on the operating table, his nose and mouth were covered in blood, making his little face a mess and so dirty that you couldn't make out what he looked like, but his features were quite nice and he looked somewhat familiar...

Xia Ningxi didn't have time to observe his appearance, because Huo Yuan had several fractures that needed immediate treatment.

Three hours later, the surgery was over.

The surgery was a great success, and everyone who assisted, except for Xia Ningxi, the lead surgeon, was very happy.

Huo Yuan was, after all, the young master of the Huo family. It would be quite unsightly to send him out in such a dirty state. Someone urged Xia Ningxi to clean Huo Yuan up.

Xia Ningxi reluctantly picked up the disinfectant cotton swab to wipe Huo Yuan's face, but in her heart she was filled with hatred for Huo Nanxiao, and even Huo Yuan on the operating table was disliked by Xia Ningxi. But when Xia Ningxi wiped away the bloodstains on Huo Yuan's face with the disinfectant cotton swab, she froze...

With trembling hands, she frantically wiped the face, revealing a clean and white little face. Xia Ningxi stared wide-eyed in disbelief. How could this child be like this?!

"Who...who is he?"

Xia Ningxi excitedly grabbed the assistant beside her.

The assistant said, "This is Huo Yuan, the young master of the Huo family."

"Huo Yuan...this is impossible!" Xia Ningxi's face turned pale with joy.

The child on the operating table looks exactly like Xia Xingxing! How could there be children in this world who look so alike!

Her brother had clearly said she was pregnant with twins, and Xia Xingxing and Xia Chuchu are now being raised by her; she only gave birth to two children.

Who is this little boy in front of me who looks exactly like Xia Xingxing?

If they weren't born from the same womb, how could they have the same face?

Xia Ningxi trembled all over. She only remembered that her first child was a boy, and she thought that boy was Xia Xingxing. So, she had three children? This young master of the Huo family, recognized by the outside world, was not Xia Wanwan's child...

Why did her brother lie to her...? Why!

Looking at Huo Yuan, who was unconscious on the operating table, covered in blood, how could he be so young and injured like this?

Huo Nanxiao hated her so much, how could he possibly treat her child well!

Xia Ningxi gripped the scalpel angrily, her trembling body unable to contain her rage any longer. Her eyes were bloodshot as she stormed out of the operating room.

"Doctor, how is A-Yuan?" Xia Luoluo ran forward crying, blocking Xia Ningxi's way.

Xia Ningxi gripped the scalpel, her eyes flashing with murderous intent: "Let go."

Xia Luoluo then noticed that she was holding a bloodstained knife, screamed in surprise, and took two steps back in fear.

Xia Ningxi's gaze fell on Huo Nanxiao. Five years had passed since they last met, and she was standing right in front of him, yet he didn't recognize her!

Two years of sharing a bed couldn't compare to a single word from Xia Wanwan. If it was something Xia Wanwan wanted, even her child, Huo Nanxiao could snatch it away without batting an eye. And now, he's treating her child like this. He's truly heartless!

All around were bodyguards from the Huo family.

Xia Ningxi suppressed the hatred in her heart and pretended to be calm: "The surgery was successful, but the child has a fever. If the fever subsides within 24 hours, the child will be out of danger. Take the child to the intensive care unit first. No outsiders are allowed to visit, not even family members!"

Xia Ningxi asked the nurse to take Huo Yuan to the intensive care unit.

The hospital director smiled and praised, "Dr. Xia is so thoughtful. I feel at ease with you here."

"I'm a doctor, this is what I should do."

Xia Ningxi turned and left.

Huo Nanxiao stared at Xia Ningxi's departing figure, his dark, cold eyes as deep as a thousand-year-old icy pool. The woman's oversized surgical gown outlined a familiar image in his eyes, overlapping with the woman in his memory...

Xia Luoluo asked doubtfully, "Is there something wrong with this doctor?"

Huo Nanxiao asked, "Who is she?"

Xia Luoluo replied, "The dean said she's a doctor at the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital. Young Master Huo, why are you staring at her? You wouldn't happen to have a crush on her, would you? Have you forgotten my sister?"

"Have you said enough?" Huo Nanxiao said coldly.

Xia Luoluo immediately shut her mouth.

Huo Nanxiao said, "You'd better hope Huo Yuan wakes up soon. Get out!"

Xia Luoluo burst into tears, wiping them away as she sobbed, "Brother-in-law, this isn't my fault. It's Ayuan who's been naughty. Don't I want him to be well? Over the years, I've been devoted to Ayuan, never mistreating him in the slightest. I was afraid he would think I was an outsider and become estranged from my sister. For my sister's sake, I've given all my goodness to Ayuan. I treat him like my own son. I don't want him to become like this."

"You can go now."

Huo Nanxiao didn't even glance at her before striding away.

In the hospital corridor, he grabbed a nurse and asked, "Where is Dr. Xia's consultation room?"

The nurse asked with a smile, "Did Young Master Huo find Dr. Xia, the one who performed the surgery on the young master?"

Huo Nanxiao: "Yes!"

The nurse said, "Go straight ahead to the end, then turn the corner and you'll be there."

Huo Nanxiao let go of Xia Ningxi's hand and walked towards her clinic. He didn't even realize that he was walking very fast!
