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 450 Who Can She Run With?
As soon as the topic of paternity testing came up, Huo Xiuyuan immediately understood.
Huo Xiuyuan knew his son's personality very well. He must have realized that Chu Chu was his child. Otherwise, Huo Nanxiao would not have made such a request with such confidence.
Huo Xiuyuan said to Xia Ningxi, "Ningxi, tell me honestly, is Chuchu really a child of the Huo family? Don't be afraid, Dad will stand up for you."
"No." Xia Ningxi replied without hesitation, her firm tone clear and decisive.
Huo Xiuyuan even began to doubt whether he had guessed wrong.
But Huo Nanxiao is no fool.
His imposing gaze fell on Xia Ningxi: "If that's not the case, then what are you afraid of?"
“Chu Chu has no connection with the Huo family, so why should I agree to your request?” Xia Ningxi retorted.
Huo Nanxiao said, "Whether there's a connection or not, we'll only know after we investigate."
"Heh, Huo Nanxiao, let me tell you, not only does Chu Chu have nothing to do with you, but A Yuan and Xing Xing also have nothing to do with you. You were the one who begged me to save Xia Wanwan, and you were the one who gave up custody of the child. Since I promised to set you free, don't push your luck." Xia Ningxi also lost her temper.
Huo Xiuyuan rarely saw Xia Ningxi angry, so he immediately scolded Huo Nanxiao, "You bastard, hurry up and apologize to Ningxi!"
"What apology? She still owes me an explanation." Huo Nanxiao's handsome face was extremely cold.
Xia Ningxi laughed: "I've already signed the divorce agreement, so I have nothing to say to you."
"I think you're just too afraid to say it," Huo Nanxiao said sarcastically.
Xia Ningxi met Huo Nanxiao's eyes and said, word by word, "Huo Nanxiao, if I were you, I would shut my mouth. I've tolerated you for a long time. If it weren't for Mom and Dad's sake, I wouldn't have allowed the two children to call you 'Daddy.' I'm already giving you a lot of face by taking them back to the Huo family. What more do you want? Are you only satisfied if you take Chuchu away from me too?"
"I only ask whose child Chu Chu is. If she has nothing to do with me, I will absolutely not fight you for her." Huo Nanxiao narrowed his eyes dangerously. "However, can you guarantee that she has absolutely nothing to do with me?"
Xia Ningxi said, "Why should I make any promises to you? Who do you think you are? Do I need to make any promises to you?"
"Xia Ningxi, what kind of attitude is this!" Huo Nanxiao was furious.
Xia Ningxi said, "The divorce agreement clearly states that I have custody of all the children. If you continue to cause trouble, I will take all three children with me, and you will never see them again."
Upon hearing this, Huo Xiuyuan and Qu Huilan immediately panicked.
They couldn't bear to see their precious grandson taken away by Xia Ningxi like this, and immediately scolded Huo Nanxiao.
Huo Xiuyuan said, "Nan Xiao, that's enough! Apologize to Ning Xi right now!"
Qu Huilan: "Ning Xi works hard enough every day. Why are you being so fierce? You're a grown man, why can't you be more considerate?"
Huo Xiuyuan: "Chuchu is Ayuan's younger sister. All three children are Ning Xi's flesh and blood. No one can take her away from her, including you."
"If you keep causing trouble, don't blame me for using family discipline!"
Huo Xiuyuan had already picked up the stick.
Huo Nanxiao said, "I only agreed to give Xia Ningxi custody of our two sons. I never said I would give her custody of our daughter. Besides, we are not divorced yet. If she wants to take all three children, she has to ask me for my consent."
"What right do you have to disagree?" Xia Ningxi retorted.
Huo Nanxiao said, "Because we're not divorced yet, and because I'm the father of the child."
"You know we're not divorced, so why are you still entangled with Xia Wanwan? I'm already being lenient by only wanting the three children. I advise you not to push your luck," Xia Ningxi warned.
Huo Nanxiao's eyes turned cold: "What's between you and me is none of anyone else's business."
"Fine, 'It's okay'? Then I'll go tell the media in the capital right now, let everyone know that I've already married you and am the eldest daughter-in-law of the Huo family. Don't come looking for me if your Xia Wanwan suffers any grievances!" Xia Ningxi was furious.
She had already given Huo Nanxiao enough face.
If Huo Nanxiao hadn't been willing to give up custody of the child, Xia Ningxi wouldn't have let Xia Wanwan be so comfortable.
She was the eldest daughter-in-law of the Huo family, while Xia Wanwan... was a real third party in this marriage.
Xia Ningxi was willing to make concessions for the sake of the child, allowing Xia Wanwan to stand dignifiedly beside Huo Nanxiao; she had already given enough.
When people talk about Huo Nanxiao and Xia Wanwan now, they undoubtedly say that they are a match made in heaven, and Xia Ningxi is naturally regarded as a third party in this relationship.
As the original wife, she was already miserable enough to be treated as a mistress, but Huo Nanxiao actually had the nerve to try and take her daughter away from her?
Xia Ningxi grew angrier the more she thought about it, and picked up Chu Chu and walked out.
The two beloved sons were naturally unwilling to stay there any longer and quickly chased after them.
"Mommy, wait for us."
The little guys ran incredibly fast, one in front and one behind.
Upon seeing this, Huo Xiuyuan shouted excitedly at Huo Nanxiao, "What are you standing there for! Quickly pull him back!"
Huo Nanxiao turned around, looked at Xia Ningxi's departing figure, and immediately gave the order: "Stop her."
The guards exchanged glances and blocked Xia Ningxi's path.
Xia Ningxi stopped and said angrily, "Get out of the way."
The guards dared not make way, their faces full of apology: "Young Madam, I'm sorry, you cannot leave without Young Master Huo's permission."
"Get out of the way!" Xia Ningxi's voice rose several decibels.
The guards dared not move, nor did they dare to make way.
Xia Ningxi was so angry that she was about to hit him, but Xingxing pushed aside the man blocking her way.
"Mommy, let's go home," Xingxing said.
Huo Yuan said, "Daddy, don't come with us, we only want Mommy."
Xingxing nodded: "Yes, Daddy, we don't like you anymore. Also, Chuchu is our little sister. She has nothing to do with you. Don't even think about taking her away. We don't want to see you now. You'd better not make Mommy angry again, or we will never come here again."
The three little ones followed Xia Ningxi away angrily, leaving the family feeling sullen.
Huo Xiuyuan didn't care about anything else; all he knew was that his daughter-in-law had run away with his precious grandson, so he immediately vented all his anger on Huo Nanxiao.
"Look what you've done! Ning Xi finally brought the child back to visit us old folks, and you, instead of doing this, you've made her run away in anger! Aren't you afraid she'll run off with someone else in a fit of rage?!" Huo Xiuyuan was furious.
Huo Nanxiao said, "Who can she run off with?"
"Don't you know who she ran off with? The whole capital is talking about it now. Li Yancheng has taken a liking to Ning Xi. You know how much that kid is targeting you. If he steals her away, you'll have no one to cry to." Huo Xiuyuan warned.
