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 413 How do you explain?
Screams erupted all around!
In the crowded hall, everyone was shocked by the sudden turn of events. They watched helplessly as Xia Ningxi and Xia Wanwan fell from the building!
Rolling down from that height would definitely cause injury!
Then look at Xia Wanwan's huge wheelchair. If it were to fall on someone, the consequences would be unimaginable!
Several young ladies near the stairs screamed in fright and then moved away.
When Huo Nanxiao saw Xia Ningxi and Xia Wanwan being knocked down the steps, his pupils constricted sharply.
"careful!"
I don't know who shouted it.
Before the words had even faded, Huo Nanxiao had already rushed over with lightning speed, without even thinking.
Jin Mingxi and Fu Xiyu were relatively close, so they quickly got up to go and save the person.
All eyes were on Xia Wanwan!
They all knew that Xia Wanwan was in poor health and couldn't afford to get hurt again!
So they were all there to save Xia Wanwan. Everyone thought Huo Nanxiao was also there for Xia Wanwan, but when the wheelchair was about to crash down, Huo Nanxiao didn't hesitate at all and stood behind Xia Ningxi to shield her...
The wheelchair slammed heavily onto Huo Nanxiao's back. He grunted softly, said nothing, and quickly pulled Xia Ningxi into his arms.
This scene shocked everyone, but Fu Xiyu, who reacted quickly, glanced at Huo Nanxiao and swiftly rescued Xia Wanwan.
Upstairs, the couple, still furious in the living room because of Xia Ningxi's earlier offense, ran out in a daze after hearing the scream.
"What happened?"
Zhou Fenglin saw Xia Luoluo standing at the top of the stairs, looking like she wanted to leave, and hurriedly asked her what was wrong.
Xia Luoluo's heart skipped a beat. She panicked and was about to run away when Zhou Fenglin caught her red-handed. Xia Luoluo's hand, hidden under her sleeve, trembled slightly.
She could never admit that she pushed Xia Wanwan down, so she decided to pin the blame on Xia Ningxi!
"Mother, Xia Ningxi actually pushed my sister down the steps!" Xia Luoluo accused her first.
Zhou Fenglin never imagined that Xia Luoluo would dare to murder her own sister. Upon hearing Xia Luoluo say that Xia Ningxi was the one who did it, her anger surged up and she rushed downstairs.
Xia Wanwan had fallen into a coma, and Zhou Fenglin was furious.
"Xia Ningxi! You bitch, how dare you push Wanwan down the stairs! I'll kill you, you poisonous woman!" Zhou Fenglin's eyes blazed with fury as he rushed over to grab Xia Ningxi by the neck.
Xia Ningxi was so dizzy from the impact that she had no time to react.
Just when everyone thought Xia Ningxi was about to be brutally beaten by Zhou Fenglin, Huo Nanxiao stopped her.
"What do you want to do?" Huo Nanxiao's eyes hardened.
Zhou Fenglin was intimidated by the man's powerful aura. She subconsciously stopped and said to Huo Nanxiao, "Was it wrong for me to scold Xia Ningxi for pushing Wanwan down the stairs?"
"Which eye of yours saw her push Wanwan down?" Huo Nanxiao retorted.
Zhou Fenglin said, "There were only Wanwan and Xia Ningxi upstairs at the time. Everyone saw it. It was Xia Ningxi who pushed Wanwan down! Does Young Master Huo still want to protect this bitch?"
Huo Nanxiao frowned and looked at Xia Ningxi.
Xia Ningxi bumped her head. Because it hurt so much, her reaction was a little slow, but she wasn't deaf. She heard everything Zhou Fenglin said.
Xia Ningxi was so angry she laughed. She walked ahead and didn't bump into Xia Wanwan. It was Xia Wanwan who suddenly lost control and crashed down because she was possessed. She didn't pursue Xia Wanwan's fault, but Zhou Fenglin came to cause trouble for her instead.
"Who saw it? Which eye saw it? Is there any evidence?" Xia Ningxi retorted.
Zhou Fenglin said, "What evidence do we need? Everyone knows who you are. Everyone knows you almost killed Wanwan back then. Now that you know Wanwan is going to marry into the Huo family, it's perfectly reasonable for you to be jealous and want to kill her!"
Her sharp, piercing voice was filled with intense anger.
Meanwhile, some uninformed bystanders' eyes lit up instantly.
"Is Xia Wanwan like this because of her? Is it really true?"
"I never expected Xia Ningxi to be this kind of person."
"I've heard she's a very famous doctor. How could a doctor do such a thing? It's terrifying."
"Who knows? Maybe he was just jealous of Xia Wanwan and deliberately pushed her down the stairs."
Everyone chimed in, each adding their own comment, because Zhou Fenglin had categorized Xia Ningxi in just a few words.
Xia Luoluo was initially panicked, but seeing Zhou Fenglin so readily shift all the blame onto Xia Ningxi, and everyone readily believing Zhou Fenglin's words, Xia Luoluo's restless heart sank...
Thankfully, Xia Ningxi is here to take the fall.
Otherwise, Xia Luoluo would be discovered.
Xia Luoluo came out, looking heartbroken: "Ning Xi, how could you do such a thing? Sister Wanwan is still sick, how could you do this?"
"Young Master Huo, Xia Ningxi has really gone too far. My sister only said a few words to her, and she got angry. She must have pushed my sister downstairs because of that."
Hearing the accusations from the crowd, Huo Nanxiao asked Xia Ningxi very seriously, "Did you push her?"
"I didn't." Xia Ningxi's voice was very firm.
Zhou Fenglin was furious: "If you didn't push her, did Wanwan fall down the stairs by herself?"
“Then you’ll have to ask Xia Wanwan,” Xia Ningxi said.
Zhou Fenglin said, "You still want to argue even now! Young Master Huo, you know how vicious this woman is. If it weren't for her, how could Wanwan have been in a coma for so many years? She must be trying to use the same trick to kill Wanwan again. We can't let her get away with this!"
"Yes, Young Master Huo, we can't just let Xia Ningxi go like this." Xia Luoluo fanned the flames from the side, not forgetting to give her good friend Zhang Lina a look.
Zhang Lina raised her voice and sneered, "With so many distinguished guests here today, Xia Ningxi dared to do such a heinous thing. If she is not punished properly, she may really do something like murder for money in the future. We can't believe her just because we hear her side of the story. Do you all agree with me?"
The crowd exchanged glances and couldn't help but turn their gazes toward Xia Ningxi.
"I never expected Xia Ningxi to be this kind of person."
"I thought she was a doctor, so at least she would be kind. I never expected her to push Xia Wanwan down the stairs."
"If we let her off the hook just because of her one-sided story, who knows how many more people will suffer in the future."
"Young Master Huo, this matter cannot be left like this."
The crowd started discussing it, each offering their own opinion.
A hint of displeasure flashed in Huo Nanxiao's eyes. He had just seen Xia Ningxi fall down the stairs and knew that she had bumped herself and gotten injured. He said to Xia Ningxi, "Go to the garage and wait for me. I'll handle this."
Xia Ningxi met the man's deep eyes in surprise and asked, word by word, "You want me... to leave?"
She couldn't believe it.
Huo Nanxiao said, "That's right."
Xia Ningxi bit her lip. She hadn't expected Huo Nanxiao to ask her to leave at this time...
Shouldn't he believe everyone else and think that she pushed Xia Wanwan down the stairs?
But what does Huo Nanxiao mean by telling her to leave now? Does he believe her?
Xia Ningxi's fragile heart wavered. A warm current spread through her heart, warming her cold heart. She was very moved, but she knew that if she chose to leave now, it would be tantamount to telling everyone that she was the one who pushed Xia Wanwan off the building.
Xia Ningxi isn't that stupid!
She steadied herself, broke free from Huo Nanxiao's embrace, glanced around, and asked, "There should be surveillance cameras here, right? If we pull up the footage, we'll know what happened, won't we?"
Zhou Fenglin roared, "Heh, you bitch, you dare to check the surveillance footage? Do you think I don't have surveillance cameras here? Men! Go and pull up the footage right now! I want to see with my own eyes how that bitch Xia Ningxi dies!"
Upon hearing the order, several servants immediately ran to check the surveillance footage.
Xia Luoluo tried to stop him but it was too late. She stood behind Zhou Fenglin, terrified. She tried hard to remember if there were any blind spots in the surveillance cameras at the stairwell. If she remembered correctly, there should be!
But does it really exist?
Xia Luoluo suddenly felt uncertain. Her heartbeat slowed down considerably, and her hands, hidden under her sleeves, trembled violently. She was nervous, but no one knew.
The Xia family's residence is under surveillance cameras everywhere, including the banquet venue!
As long as no one has tampered with anything, they can find out exactly what happened!
However, the surveillance system used by the Xia family was invented by the Li family...
This is something that outsiders never thought of.
At this moment, Li Yancheng sat in the RV, leisurely watching the screen on the computer, a faint smile curving his lips.
Yao Qing asked, "Young Master Li, what should we do?"
"What can we do? Are we going to try to clear Xia Ningxi's name? I want to see if Huo Nanxiao will protect her without evidence." Li Yancheng said with a playful expression.
Yao Qing said, "I understand."
They can easily block surveillance with a single click in the system backend, making it impossible to retrieve.
Li Yancheng took out his phone and sent a text message to Xia Ningxi...
At this moment, everyone in the Xia family went to the monitoring room, wanting to see for themselves whether it was Xia Ningxi who pushed Xia Wanwan down the stairs.
But to everyone's surprise, there was not a single record in the entire monitoring room.
The camera wasn't turned on?
Everyone was shocked; no one expected this outcome!
"Madam, there are no surveillance cameras." Xia Luoluo finally breathed a sigh of relief when the maid told Zhou Fenglin.
Xia Luoluo was overjoyed. She was ecstatic: "Great! I was worried the surveillance cameras would find me, but they weren't even turned on! Xia Ningxi, you're definitely going to be the scapegoat!"
Xia Luoluo looked at Xia Ningxi triumphantly, feigning regret: "Sister Ningxi, what's your explanation?"
Xia Ningxi looked intently at Xia Luoluo, already having a guess in her mind.
