Chapter 440 Forced Kiss

Xia Ningxi did not agree because this was not as simple as performing surgery. It required a fresh donor, the removal of a living person's arm from the body and its transplantation into the patient, the connection of each nerve, and there could not be a significant rejection reaction. This surgery was not only difficult and extremely risky, but also had a very low success rate.

Moreover, who would cut off their own hand and put it on someone else's body?

Xia Ningxi said, "It's not that I don't want to help you, but people who have already had their limbs amputated cannot have their hands reattached unless they are fitted with a prosthesis, which is easy. But if you want your daughter to be restored to her former state, no one in the medical field today has that ability."

Qiu Shiming said, "You must be lying to me. I've seen the experiments your lab did before. You can replace not only a hand, but even a head. And your lab has actually succeeded before, hasn't it?"

"Although the surgery was successful, the patient had no sensation below the neck after waking up and died 24 hours later due to a severe rejection reaction. Strictly speaking, it was actually a failed surgery."

Xia Ningxi paused, then added, "The hospital can't provide your daughter with a suitable arm, and even if they could, they can't perform this kind of surgery."

“I can use my hand, I can take my hand off and give it to her, it doesn’t matter to me. I’m old, losing a hand really doesn’t matter, as long as my daughter can be like a normal person, I’ll do anything you ask!”

Qiu Shiming was extremely distraught and overreacted; he didn't even understand what Xia Ningxi meant.

Xia Ningxi felt helpless and looked at Tang En.

Tang En was also helpless and had no way to deal with the other party.

Huo Nanxiao said to Xia Ningxi, "You go out first, I'll handle this."

"Okay." Xia Ningxi turned and walked out.

Xia Ningxi didn't know how Huo Nanxiao and they had discussed things.

Back in Tang En's office, Xia Ningxi lay back in her chair and sighed wearily.

Tang En said, "This surgery is impossible to perform. I don't know what that important person was thinking, bringing Qiu Shiming here. If it were possible, would the Imperial City General Hospital refuse to perform it for his daughter?"

“I guess they thought you were here,” Xia Ningxi replied.

Don was speechless for a moment: "I'm not a god. I can reattach a person if I cut them in half, but if I lose a hand, where am I supposed to find a hand that won't reject it?"

“Actually, as a father, he can understand.” Xia Ningxi said with a heavy heart.

Don: "But you can't treat us like gods, can you?"

“They haven’t studied medicine, so it’s normal for them to trust us, but this is indeed beyond our capabilities, and there’s nothing we can do about it,” Xia Ningxi said.

Don: "I can understand, I've encountered this kind of thing many times, but you can't just start a fight over a disagreement, can you? You almost... never mind, it makes me angry just thinking about it."

"Alright, don't get too upset and hurt yourself," Xia Ningxi comforted him.

Tang En said, "Okay, I'm not angry, but why is Huo Nanxiao here? Shouldn't he be at work at this time?"

"I guess I accompanied Xia Wanwan to the hospital for a physical examination," Xia Ningxi replied.

"I see. I thought he had heard those rumors and came here specifically to demand an explanation from you," Tang En muttered to himself.

"No way, I didn't provoke him. Besides, what does Li Yancheng's business have to do with me? Even if it does, what does it have to do with him? How does it bother him?"

Xia Ningxi didn't take this matter to heart.

Just then, the door was pushed open. The two turned around and Huo Nanxiao walked in, followed by the dean who called Tang En out with a big smile.

Seeing that Tang En had left, Xia Ningxi got up to follow him out.

Huo Nanxiao suddenly grabbed Xia Ningxi's wrist: "Where are we going?"

“I still have work to do,” Xia Ningxi replied.

The man had already closed the door with one hand and locked it from the inside.

Xia Ningxi stared at Huo Nanxiao's hand and cursed inwardly: Is this guy crazy?

She grabbed the doorknob without ceremony and tried to leave, but the man's tall figure suddenly blocked her way, completely obscuring the door lock.

Her hand, frozen in mid-air, clenched slightly. She raised her head and looked into the man's deep eyes, puzzled by his actions.

"Don't you have anything to say to me?" Huo Nanxiao stared into Xia Ningxi's eyes, his cold voice carrying a strong sense of pressure.

Xia Ningxi took a step back, pursed her lower lip slightly, and said, "No."

Huo Nanxiao's eyes darkened slightly: "What's going on between you and Li Yancheng?"

Xia Ningxi said, "Why ask so many questions? We have nothing to do with each other anymore, right?"

"Xia Ningxi!" Huo Nanxiao's tone became more serious, and his aura turned cold and terrifying in an instant.

The girl remained unmoved, her beautiful face showing no emotion whatsoever. "If you came to me just for this, then I can tell you very clearly that we had no relationship after I signed the divorce papers. I won't interfere in your affairs with Xia Wanwan, and you should stay out of my business as well."

Huo Nanxiao's eyes were deep: "Li Yancheng is very dangerous. If you don't want anything to happen to you, stay away from him. He can hurt Wanwan this time, and he can use you as a scapegoat next time."

"Heh, Li Yancheng isn't stupid. His only enemy from beginning to end has been you. Xia Wanwan is Young Master Huo's beloved, so it's normal for him to cause trouble for her. I have nothing to do with you, so he wouldn't be stupid enough to cause trouble for me." Xia Ningxi sneered, ignoring Huo Nanxiao's words.

Huo Nanxiao was furious, and a cold look appeared on his handsome face: "Xia Ningxi, I'm telling you to stay away from him."

"Why should I listen to you? I don't care about you and Xia Wanwan, so how dare you interfere with who I'm close to? How have I bothered you? You have no right to meddle in my business."

She got angry, and her voice became much louder than before. She didn't even bother to roll her eyes at Huo Nanxiao. She pushed him away and was about to open the door when her wrist was suddenly grabbed. Xia Ningxi opened her eyes wide in shock. In just a moment, she was already pinned against the door.

"You..." Xia Ningxi's eyes blazed with fury as she glared at the man in front of her, but before she could utter a single word, Huo Nanxiao silenced her with a kiss.

The icy touch and intense scent almost engulfed her entirely, while soft yet frantic thin lips fiercely sealed off all her sounds...

Xia Ningxi's mind went blank; she forgot how to react and was completely stunned by the kiss.

The man, seemingly consumed by rage, began to suckle at her lips as if venting his anger, almost swallowing all the air in her mouth, his tongue entwining with hers…

"Let me go..." she gasped for breath, her face flushed.

Huo Nanxiao grabbed her neck with one hand and pressed her against the door.
