Xia Ningxi lay in a pool of blood after a difficult labor from her two-year marriage, completely forgetting that it was the day of his wedding to someone else.
Huo Nanxiao said, "Leave th...
Chapter 307 I can give you anything you want
Xia Ningxi or Xia Wanwan, choose one?
Huo Nanxiao was furious when he heard this. He gripped his phone tightly. "What if I don't choose?"
Han Musen said, "Then I have no choice but to let Xia Ningxi die."
Huo Nanxiao, however, did not care at all: "She is an insignificant person. You can't threaten me by holding her in your hands."
“That’s what I was thinking too, so I’ve already arranged for her to be on a ship leaving the capital. If you really don’t care about her life or death, I’ll have someone throw her into the sea immediately.” Han Musen was quite decisive; he didn’t intend to keep someone who had no use to him.
"what ever."
Huo Nanxiao hung up the phone.
The two emotionless words surprised Han Musen. He hadn't expected Huo Nanxiao to hang up the phone so abruptly, and he was quite taken aback.
Han Youling asked, "Brother, what happened?"
"Huo Nanxiao hung up the phone." Han Musen said with a dark face.
Han Youling was surprised: "Doesn't he intend to care whether Xia Ningxi lives or dies?"
"It seems that's how it is. This Xia Ningxi is completely useless; she's a complete waste." Han Musen was furious.
But what Han Musen didn't know was that Huo Nanxiao had already pinpointed his exact location.
Lu Qi, in the driver's seat, stepped on the gas and sped towards the dock.
Huo Nanxiao kept staring at the location on his phone. Xia Ningxi was still at the dock and hadn't left yet. He hoped that he could make it there in time.
Half an hour later, Huo Nanxiao arrived at the dock. Almost at the same time, the entire dock was sealed off by Lu Qi and his men, and all ships had to dock for inspection.
Most people cooperated with the search, but when Lu Qi arrived at the Han family's cruise ship, he was stopped by someone who was armed and did not intend to let any unrelated personnel get close.
Du Chuan said, "This is the Han family's private cruise ship. Please leave if you are not here. Otherwise, don't blame us for being impolite."
Huo Nanxiao then walked up.
Du Chuan's expression turned noticeably unpleasant when he saw Huo Nanxiao.
"Get out." Huo Nanxiao uttered a single, ruthless word from his cold lips.
Du Chuan felt immense pressure and gritted his teeth: "Young Master Han has given orders that no one is allowed to enter without permission, not even Young Master Huo."
Huo Nanxiao waved his hand, and Lu Qi immediately led his men to surround the cruise ship.
Du Chuan, his face dark, tried to stop him, but Huo Nanxiao kicked him aside and strode onto the boat.
Seeing this, the other guards from the Han family tried to rush up and stop Huo Nanxiao, but before they could touch him, they were held down by Lu Qi and the others, and the two sides started fighting.
Hearing the sounds of fighting, Han Youling, who was inside the ship, hurried out and bumped into Huo Nanxiao, who was walking towards her. A rare look of panic appeared on her beautiful face, and she immediately spread her arms to block Huo Nanxiao's way: "Young Master Huo, what brings you here?"
"Where is Han Musen?" Huo Nanxiao asked coldly.
Han Youling said, "Why should I tell you?"
Huo Nanxiao grabbed her by the neck: "I'll ask you one more time, where is he?"
Han Youling was in extreme pain, struggling desperately and calling for help from the people outside the door, but at that moment Han Musen came down the stairs.
"Huo Nanxiao, are you not planning to let Xia Ningxi live?" Han Musen's eyes were burning with rage; anyone could see that he was extremely angry.
Huo Nanxiao pushed Han Youling away without any politeness.
Han Youling had never encountered anything like this before. She fell to the ground with a thud, her face turning pale with pain.
Huo Nanxiao concealed his cold, deep gaze and asked, "Where is Xia Ningxi?"
"on board."
Han Musen held a small, button-like object in his hand and said to Huo Nanxiao, "I've strapped explosives to her. I have the remote control. If I just gently crush it, the explosives will detonate immediately. You'd better not make any rash moves."
Huo Nanxiao recognized the new controller in Han Musen's hand and knew that Han Musen was not lying, but the thought that this bastard had actually strapped explosives to Xia Ningxi's body made Huo Nanxiao's heart burn with anger.
He was furious, but considering that Han Musen was a bastard who acted without any regard for the consequences, Huo Nanxiao had no choice but to swallow his anger at this moment, no matter how furious he was.
"What do you want?" Huo Nanxiao asked sharply.
Han Musen walked to the side and sat down, crossing his legs: "Sit."
Huo Nanxiao narrowed his eyes dangerously.
Han Musen said, "Since we're going to talk, let's talk properly."
Huo Nanxiao's handsome face remained expressionless. He walked over and sat down opposite Han Musen. Immediately, a maid came up to pour tea and respectfully brought a cup to Huo Nanxiao. Huo Nanxiao didn't even glance at it, let alone drink it.
"Afraid I'll poison your tea?" Han Musen said with a smile.
Huo Nanxiao: "This isn't the first time you've done something like this."
"Hmph, I don't need to poison you now that I have Xia Ningxi in my grasp. If you want to take her away, it's simple. I'll give you two choices." A strange smile suddenly appeared on Han Musen's face.
Huo Nanxiao scoffed: "Want Mindong? Impossible."
Han Musen said coldly, "Young Master Huo, have you thought this through? Every word you say now concerns Xia Ningxi's life or death."
“You’ll get nothing but money,” Huo Nanxiao replied.
Han Musen's heart sank when he saw that Huo Nanxiao didn't seem to be there to negotiate at all. But then he thought that if Huo Nanxiao really didn't care about Xia Ningxi's life or death, he wouldn't have appeared here in the first place.
Therefore, Huo Nanxiao's current composure is likely an act.
Thinking of this, Han Musen smiled slightly: "Since you don't care about Xia Ningxi's life or death, you can leave now. I will take care of her."
“I don’t care about her, but she can’t stay here with you,” Huo Nanxiao said.
Han Musen said, "You can take her away, but whether she lives or dies is uncertain. I'm making this clear today: Mindong must be given to me, or I'll let Xia Ningxi die on the ship."
"Then you should prepare to spend the rest of your life in prison." Huo Nanxiao's aura changed, and he exuded a strong sense of pressure.
Han Musen said, "Huo Nanxiao, you are really heartless. That is the woman who borne your children. You can't even bear to part with a mere Mindong. If it were Xia Wanwan, would you agree without hesitation?"
Huo Nanxiao did not answer.
Although Han Musen hated Huo Nanxiao to the core, seeing Huo Nanxiao's complete indifference to Xia Ningxi's life or death, he couldn't help but feel sorry for Xia Ningxi. Huo Nanxiao had no idea that their conversation could be clearly heard by Xia Ningxi in the hidden door next door.
At this moment, Xia Ningxi's hands and feet were tied with ropes, and her mouth was gagged, so she couldn't make a sound. She was initially very happy when she learned that Huo Nanxiao had come to find her, but now, hearing their conversation, Xia Ningxi's heart sank.
It turns out that Huo Nanxiao really didn't care about her at all.
Even if she was Huo Nanxiao's first wife, loved him for so many years, and bore him children, it couldn't change the fact that Huo Nanxiao didn't love her.
Her heart was torn apart at that moment, aching silently. Tears welled up inexplicably, blurring her vision. Xia Ningxi could only try her best to force the tears back.
She knew Huo Nanxiao would not save her.
She can only rely on herself.
Xia Ningxi tried to calm herself down and began to untie the rope on her hands. Fortunately, the rope was not tied in a knot. It took Xia Ningxi a lot of effort to untie the rope on her wrists. Then she immediately went to untie the rope on her legs.
Looking around, it was pitch black, and she didn't know where the door was. Xia Ningxi could only rely on her sense of touch to feel the walls. She quickly found an iron door, but it was already locked from the outside. Xia Ningxi couldn't get out at all, so she had to find another way. As it turned out, Xia Ningxi actually found a window that she could use to escape.
The window was very small, so Xia Ningxi had no choice but to grit her teeth and climb out. After finally getting out of the window, she accidentally bumped into a broom when her feet touched the ground.
Bang--
A crisp sound.
Han Musen immediately became alert and gave Han Youling a look.
Han Youling understood and quickly led two maids towards the source of the sound.
Huo Nanxiao also realized that something was wrong and immediately stood up.
"Where are you going?" Han Musen shouted.
Huo Nanxiao completely ignored him.
Han Musen quickly caught up and grabbed Huo Nanxiao's right shoulder, but the man swiftly threw Han Musen to the ground without any hesitation. The people around were so frightened that they rushed forward to help Han Musen up.
Han Musen's eyes were bloodshot as he roared, "Stop him!"
Almost simultaneously, a group of people surged out, quickly blocking Huo Nanxiao's path, and pounced on him menacingly.
But at that very moment, Lu Qi led his men into the ship.
Huo Nanxiao dodged the person who ambushed him and kicked the man blocking his way away. He then saw Han Youling leading several women rushing upstairs to chase after them.
The footsteps grew closer.
Xia Ningxi clearly sensed that someone was chasing her, so she ran very fast.
The cruise ship has six decks. When Xia Ningxi reached the third deck, she was spotted by people coming down from upstairs. She had no choice but to quickly turn around and run downstairs, where she bumped into Han Youling and several maids.
"Take her down!" Han Youling commanded in a sweet voice.
Several maids rushed towards Xia Ningxi, but within two seconds, Xia Ningxi kicked them so hard they fell down the steps. Two maids tumbled down the steps in a sorry state, knocking Han Youling, who was chasing after them, to the ground. The three of them rolled down the steps in a flurry.
Without any hesitation, Xia Ningxi dove to the left corridor and fled.
What Xia Ningxi didn't know was that the Han family's cruise ship was equipped with surveillance cameras.
No matter where he escapes to, Han Musen knows!
Just as Xia Ningxi reached the end of the road and was about to turn, someone grabbed her by the neck and pressed a knife against her back.
Xia Ningxi froze instantly.
At the same time, she saw Huo Nanxiao appear not far away, only five meters away from her.
Holding a knife to Xia Ningxi, Han Musen coldly smiled at Huo Nanxiao: "Nanxiao, do you want to try and see if your speed is faster, or my knife is faster?"
Huo Nanxiao said sternly, "Release her!"
Han Musen's eyes widened in fury: "You have no right to negotiate with me!"
"I'll give you anything you want, just let her go!" Huo Nanxiao roared.
Han Musen sneered: "Now you know to ask me to release them? Too late!"
