Chapter 360 I Won't Put You in Danger Again

Huo Yuan is an independent individual with his own ideas, and Huo Nanxiao cannot control who he likes or dislikes.

If Xia Ningxi hadn't appeared, Huo Yuan would definitely have liked Xia Wanwan very much. At the very least, Huo Yuan would have thought that Xia Wanwan was his biological mother. But now Huo Yuan knows everything, and he can no longer follow Huo Nanxiao's plan.

Xia Wanwan looked very dejected because she had suffered a great blow. Huo Nanxiao originally wanted to tell her that Huo Yuan was Xia Ningxi's child, but when he saw Xia Wanwan turn to the side sadly and wrap herself up tightly in the quilt, Huo Nanxiao fell silent.

He left the ward.

Xia Ningxi and her two children were waiting outside the ward.

Seeing the worry on Huo Nanxiao's handsome face, Xia Ningxi knew something must have happened. She didn't inquire about Xia Wanwan's situation, but simply stood silently to the side without saying a word.

When Huo Nanxiao came out, he saw Huo Yuan hiding next to Xia Ningxi. He reached out to pick up the little guy, but Huo Yuan took a step back in strong resistance, his hands tightly gripping Xia Ningxi's clothes. He was very scared.

Huo Nanxiao could tell too, and he said in a deep voice, "A Yuan, are you afraid of me?"

Huo Yuan said, "Daddy, I've already made myself perfectly clear. Where do you want to take me now?"

"Daddy didn't intend to take you anywhere, he just wanted to hug you," Huo Nanxiao explained.

Huo Yuan didn't believe it and hid behind Xia Ningxi with increasing fear.

Huo Nanxiao felt uneasy and could only hug Xingxing. As a result, Xingxing glared at him with her big, grape-like eyes, looking fierce and exuding an aura of "keep away".

Huo Nanxiao's hand froze in mid-air.

Neither of his sons liked him.

well.

Huo Nanxiao had no choice but to say to Xia Ningxi, "Let's go back."

"Okay." Xia Ningxi took the two children's hands, one on each side.

Huo Nanxiao wanted to help, but none of the children paid him any attention. When they saw Huo Nanxiao approaching, they were all frightened and immediately hid away, fearing that Huo Nanxiao would grab them and send them away.

The two biological sons displayed their resistance to Huo Nanxiao to the fullest extent.

Huo Nanxiao felt uneasy.

After a whole day out, the two older brothers were actually quite tired and fell asleep shortly after getting in the car.

Fortunately, Huo Nanxiao's car was big enough. After settling Huo Yuan and Xingxing in, Xia Ningxi returned to her seat.

The car became much quieter.

Xia Ningxi was very close to Huo Nanxiao, close enough to feel his heartbeat, and she couldn't help but move her position slightly.

"Don't squeeze the child." Huo Nanxiao held her wrist, not allowing her to stray even a fraction further away from him.

Xia Ningxi looked down at Huo Nanxiao's large hand, somewhat displeased, and tried to break free.

Huo Nanxiao deliberately gripped it tightly.

Xia Ningxi said, "Let go."

Huo Nanxiao said, "Keep your voice down, don't wake the child."

Xia Ningxi thought to herself: Can't you understand human language? Don't I know how to take care of my own child? I certainly won't disturb their sleep, but why are you, a grown man, holding my hand and standing so close to me?

She felt uneasy, especially when Huo Nanxiao whispered to her. She could even feel the man's warm breath on her cheek, a tingling sensation that made Xia Ningxi's whole body go numb. She didn't like this feeling and wished she could keep her distance from Huo Nanxiao.

But the space inside the car was only so big, and the three children sleeping sideways filled the already spacious car. If Xia Ningxi didn't want to fight with the three children for a seat, she could only sit next to Huo Nanxiao. The two of them were very close, which made Xia Ningxi very uncomfortable.

She could only change the subject: "Have you explained A Yuan's situation to Xia Wanwan?"

"Not yet," Huo Nanxiao replied.

Xia Ningxi was very puzzled: "Why?"

“She’s not in a good mood today, but since A Yuan isn’t her child, she won’t fight you for him,” Huo Nanxiao said.

Xia Ningxi didn't believe it: "I don't trust her."

Huo Nanxiao said in a deep voice, "I said I won't force you, much less force A Yuan."

"Then why did you bring A-Yuan to the hospital today? You clearly know that A-Yuan is not Xia Wanwan's child, so why did you let Xia Wanwan know about A-Yuan's existence?" Xia Ningxi questioned.

Huo Nanxiao said, "Since A Yuan wants to stay in the capital, he should stay openly and honestly. Xia Wanwan will find out sooner or later. Rather than hearing about it from someone else, I'd rather tell her myself."

In fact, Huo Nanxiao had already decided to tell Xia Wanwan about his relationship with Xia Ningxi today, but seeing how much pain Xia Wanwan was in, Huo Nanxiao finally decided to let Xia Wanwan take her time and tell her slowly at another time.

"Aren't you afraid of making Xia Wanwan sad?" Xia Ningxi couldn't help but ask.

In her mind, Huo Nanxiao should be very afraid of Xia Wanwan being sad.

Huo Nanxiao said, "This was unavoidable."

Xia Ningxi said, "She won't be sad as long as I and the children disappear."

Huo Nanxiao's deep gaze suddenly fell on Xia Ningxi's face, his gaze intense and complex.

Xia Ningxi felt extremely uncomfortable and couldn't help but ask, "Do I have words on my face? Why are you staring at me like that?"

"I will never put you and the children in any danger again."

His voice was strong and clear, each word filled with determination.

Xia Ningxi was stunned, her heart churning with turmoil. Her heart was pounding wildly, and her cheeks flushed slightly. She was shocked by Huo Nanxiao's words. She bit her pink lips, unsure how to respond.

She sat quietly beside Huo Nanxiao without saying a word. For some reason, when she heard Huo Nanxiao say that "she and the child will not be in any danger," Xia Ningxi had an indescribable feeling. She remembered that Huo Nanxiao had never said such a thing before.

He spent the first half of his life protecting Xia Wanwan, never protecting himself.

Xia Ningxi didn't know whether to cry or laugh. She could only suppress the shock in her heart and pretend that she hadn't heard Huo Nanxiao's words.

Her hands, resting on her lap, were intertwined, just like her complicated heart.

The car was moving slowly. Huo Nanxiao saw Xia Ningxi's hands clasped together in nervousness. He took her cold hands in his large hand and said very firmly, "I promised you that I would keep A Yuan by your side, and I will not go back on my word."
