Chapter 316 Triplets

Xia Chuchu was very curious. She and her brother were triplets. Her brother's mother was her mother, so her brother's father should also be her father.

Xia Chuchu was very puzzled, staring at Huo Nanxiao with her bright, piercing eyes.

Huo Nanxiao replied coldly, "I am not your father."

"Why?" Xia Chuchu was even more puzzled.

Huo Nanxiao: "Isn't your daddy dead?"

He remembered that Xia Chuchu had once said that her father was dead.

Xia Chuchu asked, "Then why are you Huo Yuan and Xingxing's daddy?"

Huo Nanxiao: "I say it is, so it is. Why are you asking so many questions?"

Xia Chuchu: "Hmph, you're a liar. You're trying to steal my brother from me."

Huo Nanxiao said coldly, "A Yuan and Xingxing are both mine. I don't need to fight you for them."

"Nonsense, my brother is mine," Xia Chuchu retorted unhappily.

Huo Nanxiao: "Even your mother is mine, so naturally your brother is mine too. As for you, hmph."

Xia Chuchu didn't know what Huo Nanxiao meant by that "humph," but she felt that Huo Nanxiao was looking down on her. She puffed up her cheeks in anger and said defiantly, "My mommy isn't yours, and neither is our whole family. Mommy said she'll take us away in a while, and then you can forget about taking my brother from me."

Huo Nanxiao, who was driving, fell silent, a complex look flashing in his deep eyes.

He couldn't help but ask, "Where is your mommy taking you?"

“Naturally, I’ll go back abroad, back to my godfather’s house,” Xia Chuchu replied.

Huo Nanxiao's deep eyes suddenly darkened: "Does your mother live with your godfather abroad?"

“Yes,” Xia Chuchu replied.

A chilling glint appeared on Huo Nanxiao's handsome face.

He never imagined that Xia Ningxi would be living with another man, especially while she had a bigamous husband abroad, and yet she was living with a normal man...

A fire suddenly ignited in his heart, his slender, pale fingers gripped the steering wheel tightly, and his entire face was cold.

Xia Chuchu clearly felt the temperature inside the car drop considerably. She secretly glanced at Huo Nanxiao. Was he angry? She didn't think she had said anything wrong, did she? Why was this big bad guy angry? He still had the nerve to be angry?

Xia Chuchu ignored Huo Nanxiao and silently leaned against the window to look at the scenery outside.

Huo Nanxiao didn't say anything more along the way. When they arrived at the Huo family's old residence, Huo Nanxiao led Xia Chuchu out of the car.

Huo Xiuyuan saw Huo Nanxiao leading a little girl home and patted Qu Huilan in shock.

Qu Huilan looked utterly astonished: "Where did this little girl come from?"

As soon as she finished speaking, her two older brothers noticed Xia Chuchu.

Huo Yuan threw down the toy in his hand, "Little sister!"

Xia Xingxing excitedly ran over: "Little sister, what brings you here too?"

Huo Nanxiao said coldly to Xia Chuchu, "Play with your brothers here, don't cause trouble, and behave yourself, or I'll send you back immediately."

The sharp voice was icy cold, devoid of any warmth.

Qu Huilan was so excited to see such a cute little girl that she trembled all over. She quickly came out to greet her and asked with a smile, "Nan Xiao, who is this little girl?"

"Hmph, Xia Ningxi's illegitimate daughter." Huo Nanxiao replied expressionlessly.

Qu Huilan's face stiffened. Xia Ningxi had an illegitimate daughter?

Even Huo Xiuyuan, who was very fond of Xia Ningxi, couldn't stay calm after hearing this!

Huo Xiuyuan said, "How come I've never heard of Ning Xi having an illegitimate daughter outside?"

Huo Nanxiao said, "Would she tell you about something like that?"

Huo Nanxiao felt angry when he saw Xia Chuchu, especially after learning about Xia Ningxi's chaotic life abroad. He snorted coldly and drove away.

Huo Nanxiao wanted to ask a couple more questions, but hesitated and finally fixed his gaze on Xia Chuchu.

The adorable little baby smiled sweetly at Huo Xiuyuan, revealing her cute little tiger teeth. She greeted him in her sweet, childlike voice, "Hello, Grandpa and Grandma, my name is Xia Chuchu. I'm Huo Yuan and Xingxing's little sister. You can just call me Chuchu."

Huo Xiuyuan was flattered.

Qu Huilan was so excited that she pushed Huo Xiuyuan away, hugged Xia Chuchu and looked her up and down; "My God, she's so cute, this little girl is so beautiful."

Xia Xingxing stepped forward and introduced her to the two elders: "Grandma, this is Chu Chu. We are very close. Grandma, please love Chu Chu as much as you love me."

Qu Huilan smiled and said, "Okay, okay, Chu Chu, right? Are you hungry? I have lots of snacks at home, come on, I'll take you to eat."

Xia Chuchu said, "Thank you, Grandma."

It was Xia Chuchu's first time visiting the Huo family's old residence, and she seemed very reserved. Her two older brothers noticed this and quickly took her to the playground in the backyard.

The three little ones chased and played around in the playground, having a great time.

Huo Xiuyuan stared at Xia Chuchu for a long time before finally asking, "How come I haven't heard that Ning Xi had a daughter abroad? Whose child is this little girl?"

Qu Huilan said, "I've never heard of her either, but this little girl is really beautiful. I've never seen such a cute child before. She's so lovable. Let's not worry about whose child she is. Since Nan Xiao brought her home, she's ours."

Huo Xiuyuan said, "I noticed that Nan Xiao was gritting his teeth when he talked about this girl."

Qu Huilan: "He's a married man who's still entangled with Xia Wanwan, and he even has the nerve to grit his teeth at Ning Xi's child. Just ignore this bastard."

Huo Xiuyuan nodded: "You're right."

Qu Huilan looked at Xia Chuchu's two little braids and liked them more and more. She really liked little girls, especially pretty little girls like this who were like porcelain dolls. They were so lovely that she couldn't help but love them.

But……

"Why do I feel like these three look so alike?" Qu Huilan wondered.

Huo Xiuyuan asked, "Which three?"

“Who else could it be? Aren’t they these three children? Look closely, don’t they look very alike?” Qu Huilan asked.

Huo Xiuyuan said, "It does look quite similar."

Qu Huilan said, "Could it be triplets?"

Huo Xiuyuan said, "Chu Chu is obviously much shorter than A Yuan and Xing Xing, and looks younger than her two older brothers."

"Oh, right." Qu Huilan also noticed something was wrong.

Logically speaking, children of the same age should be about the same height, but Xia Chuchu is obviously much smaller than her two older brothers. Her skin is excessively fair, and in the sunlight, she looks somewhat sickly.

Qu Huilan didn't think much of it.

The playground at the Huo family mansion was built specifically for the two children. Chu Chu's arrival made the two older brothers very happy. They chased each other around the yard, having a wonderful time.

Huo Xiuyuan and Qu Huilan stood by and watched for a long time. Later, they couldn't stand it any longer, so they instructed the housekeeper and nanny to take good care of the three children and then returned to the old house to rest.

Chuchu was playing games with her two older brothers. She chased them for a long distance, but soon she couldn't breathe and fell to the ground.

"Sister!" Xingxing cried out in fright.

Huo Yuan rushed over immediately: "Little sister, are you alright?"

Xia Chuchu, who had fallen to the ground, grabbed Huo Yuan with a cry: "Got you!"

Huo Yuan almost cried out in anger: "Little sister, you're so mean!"

"Brother Huo Yuan lost, now it's your turn to catch us." Xia Chuchu's eyes were full of cunning.

Huo Yuan pouted, looking aggrieved: "Fine, I'll count to three, and you run first."

"Okay!" Chu Chu took off running.

The nanny stayed by the side to watch over the three little ones, making sure they were safe.

After finishing his business at the company, Huo Nanxiao went to Ninghai Hospital to see Jerry to find out about Xia Wanwan's health condition.

Jerry said, "The patient has passed the critical period and is no longer in danger of dying."

Huo Nanxiao breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this and said in a deep voice, "How is her physical condition? Is she able to wake up?"

Jerry said, "We conducted a thorough examination and physical assessment of the patient, and he was no longer suitable for a second surgery because our surgeon was injured and could not operate on him."

Huo Nanxiao asked with a serious expression, "What if it were Xia Ningxi instead?"

Jerry said, "Mr. Huo, we are Xia Wanwan's medical team."

Huo Nanxiao said, "I just want to know, if it were Xia Ningxi instead, would the patient have a chance to wake up?"

Jerris did not answer.

They are Xia Wanwan's main medical team, and it's against the rules to involve Xia Ningxi.

No matter how Huo Nanxiao asked, Jerry remained silent. In the end, Huo Nanxiao had no choice but to give up, glanced at Xia Wanwan, and left the hospital.

Jerris returned to the ward where Don was and told Don exactly what Huo Nanxiao had asked him.

Tang En said, "Xia Wanwan has passed the critical period, so there's really no problem. We just need to do one more high-precision surgery."

Jerry said, "You're still injured. Let's talk about it when you've fully recovered."

Tang En nodded: "Okay, if it really doesn't work, we can let Ning Xi go to the operating table. I think she would also like to complete this surgery."

Jerry said, "If Dr. Xia were to perform the surgery, it would definitely be a success."

"Yes, I still believe in her abilities." Tang En's words were full of praise when he spoke of Xia Ningxi.

However, the two were unaware that Xia Luoluo happened to be passing by Tang En's hospital room at that moment, and she overheard their conversation clearly.

Her face turned pale, her hands clenched tightly, and she was trembling with fear.

Xia Luoluo didn't want Xia Wanwan to wake up; she hoped Xia Wanwan would remain asleep forever.

She walked step by step toward the intensive care unit, her fists clenched tightly as she looked at the woman on the verge of death in the ward. It seemed she could no longer sit idly by and wait for her to die.

Looking at the monitor in the ward, a ruthless glint flashed in Xia Luoluo's eyes.

An hour later, Huo Nanxiao received a critical condition notice from Xia Wanwan.

Huo Nanxiao, who originally planned to go to the Huo family's old residence to pick up the three children, rushed to the research center to pick up Xia Ningxi.

Xia Ningxi was very puzzled: "What do you want from me?"

Huo Nanxiao said, "Wanwan is in trouble. You need to come back to Ninghai Hospital with me right now."
