Chapter 487 Finding a Rich and Handsome Man for a Romantic Getaway

Huo Nanxiao's voice echoed in the bedroom, so steady and powerful that it was impossible to ignore.

Xia Ningxi was first taken aback, then her face was full of confusion, "Why do you suddenly not want a divorce? Haven't you always wanted to divorce me?"

“Just consider it for the sake of the child,” Huo Nanxiao replied.

Xia Ningxi got angry: "For the child? What a convenient excuse you're using to push everything onto the child. In reality, you still want to give Xia Wanwan an explanation, don't you?"

"In her current state, there's no way she could ever enter the Huo family. Even if I insist on keeping my promise, her methods are simply not enough to establish her in the Huo family." Huo Nanxiao did not deny his thoughts.

Huo Xiuyuan has made it very clear that he will not allow Xia Wanwan to enter the Huo family. If Huo Nanxiao insists on doing so, it will not only be of no benefit to Xia Wanwan, but will also anger Huo Xiuyuan. Once Huo Xiuyuan takes action, things will not be so simple.

In fact, not getting a divorce is not only for the sake of the child having a happy family, but more importantly, to ensure Xia Wanwan's safety.

Huo Nanxiao understood this better than anyone else.

Xia Ningxi also knew that her head was no longer dizzy despite her previous fever. On the contrary, she was very clear-headed now, and she didn't know where the fire came from.

"Why should your word be law? You're the one who wants a divorce, and you're also the one who doesn't want a divorce and wants to protect Xia Wanwan. Huo Nanxiao, what do you take me for? Have you only ever treated me as a pawn?" Xia Ningxi questioned.

The man's face darkened: "If that's what you think, there's nothing I can do."

Enraged, Xia Ningxi grabbed a pillow and threw it at Huo Nanxiao.

The man was hit squarely, stared at her angry face, and said, "Do you want something to happen to Wanwan?"

"She's nobody to me, what does it matter to me whether she lives or dies? You don't want a divorce? I won't have it! Do you think I wanted to marry you? There are plenty of men out there to choose from!"

"You want to sacrifice your life's happiness for Xia Wanwan? I won't let you have your way. This marriage must end. I'm still waiting to go out and find a rich and handsome guy to have fun with. I'm not going to listen to you and be trapped in this marriage grave."

Xia Ningxi's flushed face was flushed with anger, and her emotions were running high. Her face was red and she was about to point her finger at Huo Nanxiao and curse him. Her arrogant attitude was almost palpable in the man's face.

Huo Nanxiao's aura changed completely, and he asked her in a sinister tone, "There are plenty of men out there, Xia Ningxi. Which rich and handsome guy are you looking for to have a good time with?"

“It’s none of your business,” Xia Ningxi replied.

Huo Nanxiao stepped forward and pinched her cheek: "If you have the guts, then explain yourself!"

"It doesn't have to be anyone specific, as long as he's a handsome man." Xia Ningxi's requirements were simple: as long as he was handsome, that was enough.

"Being handsome is enough? Ha, are you planning to divorce me and immediately run off to Li Yancheng?" Huo Nanxiao questioned.

Xia Ningxi said, "It has nothing to do with you."

"It's okay?" Huo Nanxiao suddenly pulled Xia Ningxi into his arms.

His broad chest was almost pressed tightly against Xia Ningxi's, and he held her slender waist tightly in a possessive manner.

"You...you let me go." She was having trouble breathing.

She was running a fever and didn't have much strength. She was both angry and annoyed, and she swung her fist at Huo Nanxiao's chest.

Huo Nanxiao gripped her fist, looking down at her. "Don't worry, even if you divorce me, you will never have any contact with any other man, let alone have a fling with another. Once you marry me, you are mine in life and in death."

"Are you sick in the head? What gives you the right to be so domineering?" Xia Ningxi gritted her teeth, trembling with anger.

The man lifted her chin, his sharp eyes staring directly into the girl's eyes. "As long as I am still your husband and the biological father of your child, I will never allow any man to have the chance to get close to the child. So, you want to have some fun? In your next life."

"You're shameless!" Xia Ningxi cursed at him.

Huo Nanxiao laughed: "Is this what you call shameless? There's something even more shameless. Do you want to try?"

His hand around the girl's waist deepened, his dark eyes filled with an unyielding malice and fire, and his aura was filled with a scorching heat that could devour a person, as if he wanted to burn Xia Ningxi to ashes, powerful and domineering.

Xia Ningxi was almost swallowed up by this domineering aura. She trembled all over and was even a little scared.

What exactly is this guy trying to do?

Xia Ningxi panicked a little, her face flushed, and said, "I'm too lazy to argue with you."

Huo Nanxiao looked at her flushed cheeks, saying nothing and not letting go.

Xia Ningxi was held tightly by Huo Nanxiao, her whole body almost pressed against his chest. Her breath rose and fell with her chest, rubbing against the man's chest. The sensitive and delicate friction added a touch of ambiguity to the dark night.

"I...I can't breathe." Xia Ningxi could only make up another excuse, hoping that Huo Nanxiao would release her as soon as possible.

Huo Nanxiao looked at Xia Ningxi, whose face was as red as an apple, and said, "Be honest, and I will naturally not cause you any trouble. But if you don't cooperate, don't blame me for being impolite."

After saying this, Huo Nanxiao released his hand.

Xia Ningxi breathed a sigh of relief. She took two steps back, sat on the bed and breathed heavily. She glared at the man in front of her through the moonlight streaming in from the window. Looking at his aloof and arrogant appearance, she felt a burning hatred in her heart. If she weren't sick, she would have knocked Huo Nanxiao out with one needle!

Forget it, I won't bother arguing with a jerk.

"I understand, I will definitely remember what Young Master Huo said. Is there anything else? If not, please leave!" Xia Ningxi said irritably.

Huo Nanxiao: "I'll stay here with you tonight."

“No way.” Xia Ningxi immediately refused.

Huo Nanxiao: "You have no right to object."

"There are so many empty rooms in the house, and you have your own room, so why do you want to live with me?" Xia Ningxi questioned.

Huo Nanxiao said, "Because my father is watching. If I sleep in a separate room from you, he will definitely make things difficult for Wanwan."

Xia Ningxi's lips twitched, her teeth itching with hatred. What did this bastard take her for! How despicable! So utterly despicable!

Xia Ningxi grew angrier the more she thought about it. She kicked over the stool, stormed back to bed, pulled the blanket over her head, and went to sleep!

Huo Nanxiao found it quite amusing to watch her huffing and puffing as she walked out of the room, taking the key with her.

The three children were playing outside in the yard. When it was time, Huo Nanxiao took the three children to take a bath.

Chu Chu's washing and grooming were mostly done by the nanny, while Huo Yuan and Xing Xing were washed by Huo Nanxiao himself. The two little ones played happily outside, smiling and laughing with everyone, but when it came to Huo Nanxiao, they all had a stern face, as if someone owed them millions. They wouldn't put on clothes when asked, and did everything against Huo Nanxiao.

Huo Nanxiao knew that the two children were just throwing a tantrum at him, and he felt helpless.
