Chapter 453 Unrequited Love

Looking at the reports about Xia Ningxi online, Xia Wanwan really hoped that Xia Ningxi could be with Li Yancheng, only in this way could she eliminate the fear in her heart.

Back in her room, Xia Wanwan sat alone by the floor-to-ceiling window, lost in thought.

Xia Luoluo pushed open the door and entered.

"Sister, it's time to take your medicine."

Xia Wanwan turned around and saw that her face was not good. She said softly, "Luo Luo, don't blame your mother for speaking harshly."

“Mother is right. I am indeed not as capable as my sister. I am not favored by Huo Nanxiao, nor do I have the favor of any wealthy young master. It is normal for Mother to look down on me.” Xia Luoluo smiled slightly.

Xia Wanwan said, "Don't think like that. Your mother actually loves you very much."

"Sister, you don't need to comfort me. I'm not a sensitive person, and I didn't take Mother's words to heart," Xia Luoluo replied.

Xia Wanwan breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."

Xia Luoluo sat down next to Xia Wanwan: "Sister, why hasn't Young Master Huo come to see you lately?"

“He’s busy with work and doesn’t have time,” Xia Wanwan replied.

Xia Luoluo said, "Oh, I see. I thought Young Master Huo went to be with someone else."

"Who can he accompany?" Xia Wanwan said with a smile.

Xia Luoluo: "Maybe it's Xia Ningxi. Sister, don't blame me for being nosy, but I think Xia Ningxi definitely wants to stay by Huo Nanxiao's side."

"Why do you say that? Ning Xi has been keeping her distance from Nan Xiao lately," Xia Wanwan replied.

Xia Luoluo said, "If she had any self-awareness, she should have left the capital with her child instead of staying here. The reason she stayed is to compete with my sister for the position of the eldest daughter-in-law of the Huo family. So if my sister really wants to marry Young Master Huo, she must make Xia Ningxi disappear."

"This isn't a good idea," Xia Wanwan hesitated.

Xia Luoluo said, "Aren't you afraid that Xia Ningxi will take everything that belongs to you?"

“Nan Xiao will never go back on his promise to me. Why should I drive Ning Xi away? She’s raising several children on her own and it’s very hard for her. If I were to drive her away for my own selfish reasons, how cruel would that be?” Xia Wanwan asked.

Xia Luoluo laughed: "If Xia Ningxi hadn't harmed you back then, how could she have gotten pregnant with Huo Nanxiao's child? Do you think Xia Ningxi is any good? She's staying in the capital just to become the eldest daughter-in-law of the Huo family. The more lenient you are now, the more she'll take advantage of you."

"No, that won't happen." Xia Wanwan lowered her head. "Nan Xiao won't be with her."

Xia Luoluo sneered: "Even now, sister, you're still so naive. Do you really have to wait until Huo Nanxiao abandons you before you'll realize your mistake?"

"That's enough, stop talking. I'll handle my own affairs, so don't bother with me. You can leave now," Xia Wanwan snapped at her, her face extremely unpleasant.

Xia Luoluo snorted inwardly and placed the medicine on the table: "Then I'll be going now. Remember to take your medicine, sister."

Xia Wanwan stared at the medicine on the table, not taking it for a long time. She was lost in thought for a long time before finally taking out her phone to check on Xia Ningxi and Huo Nanxiao. Fortunately, Xia Ningxi had been getting close to Li Yancheng recently, and it was said that Li Yancheng was already pursuing Xia Ningxi.

No wonder Li Yancheng humiliated him like that before; it turns out he was standing up for Xia Ningxi.

"It seems that Li Yancheng and Ning Xi have known each other for a long time."

"He seems to really like Ning Xi."

"Hopefully, they are sincere. If they can be together, it might not be a bad thing."

Xia Wanwan prayed silently in her heart. She didn't know why she had suddenly become so destitute.

Clearly, she was the one who should be standing by Huo Nanxiao's side, but now, because of Xia Ningxi's appearance, Xia Wanwan felt that she was the third party who had interfered.

Xia Wanwan didn't sleep well all night because of this. She called Huo Nanxiao, hoping he would come and see her, but... no one answered.

I wonder what Huo Nanxiao is doing. He shouldn't be asleep at this hour. Why isn't he answering my call? Is it because it's inconvenient for him? Or is it because Xia Ningxi is right next to him, so he simply can't answer?

Xia Wanwan couldn't sleep all night.

What she didn't know was that Huo Nanxiao was also awake at this time.

Huo Nanxiao's car was parked outside Xia Ningxi's house. He sat in the car and smoked a cigarette. The smoke blurred his vision.

The two-story building not far away was dimly lit, and the people inside were probably still awake. He had knocked on the door several times, but no one answered.

He knew Xia Ningxi must be at home, but he also knew that Xia Ningxi didn't want to pay any attention to him.

Huo Nanxiao stood guard outside the door all night.

The next day at dawn.

When Xia Ningxi took her three children out to school, she encountered Huo Nanxiao blocking the entrance, which startled her.

"Why are you still here?" She subconsciously pushed the three children behind her, afraid that Huo Nanxiao would try to take them from her.

Huo Nanxiao said, "I'm here to take the children to school."

"No need, I'll take him myself. You don't need to worry about the child anymore." Xia Ningxi refused Huo Nanxiao's offer.

Huo Nanxiao said, "They are my children. It's only natural for me to take care of them. What are you afraid of?"

"They have nothing to do with you anymore, so please don't be sentimental or meddle in other people's business."

Xia Ningxi retorted without any politeness, too lazy to argue with Huo Nanxiao, and took the child to leave.

"Ah Yuan, get in the car." Huo Nanxiao suddenly said to Huo Yuan.

Huo Yuan paused for a moment, blinked his big eyes, and stared blankly at Huo Nanxiao.

"What are you standing there for?" Huo Nanxiao asked back.

Huo Yuan said, "I...I want to stay with Mommy."

"I'll take you to school faster. Get in the car and listen to me." Huo Nanxiao's voice was very firm, with an unyielding tone.

His car was blocking the entrance, preventing Huo Yuan from leaving, so he had no choice but to get into the car obediently.

Xingxing, however, was not happy and proudly raised her little face: "I will not ride in Daddy's car."

"Me neither," Chu Chu also refused.

Huo Nanxiao said, "If you don't get in the car now, you'll be late. There are still ten minutes left. I can drive you there in time."

The two little ones glanced at their phone watches in a panic, and their expressions changed instantly!

"It's 8:20!"

"Brother, we're going to be late!"

"Mommy, we're going to be late!"

Chu Chu was so surprised that she screamed.

Xia Ningxi didn't expect it to be so late, and hurriedly locked the door to hail a taxi.

Huo Nanxiao said, "It's too late for you to call a car now. Do you want all three children to be late?"

"It's none of your business," Xia Ningxi retorted irritably.

Huo Nanxiao said, "Get in the car. We can talk about our business after we drop the kids off at school."

Xia Ningxi's anger subsided somewhat. In order to prevent the children from being late, Xia Ningxi had no choice but to get into Huo Nanxiao's car.

This guy probably didn't sleep all night; his dark circles are really bad.

Xia Ningxi didn't say anything. After sending the child to school, she was about to go to work at the hospital when Huo Nanxiao forcefully pulled her into his car.
