Chapter 502 Famous Throughout the Imperial City, Enraging a Group of People

Ninghai Hospital has made a name for itself this time. Major newspapers in the capital sent people to the hospital early in the morning to conduct interviews. Magazines, newspapers, and news headlines were all filled with reports about the successful surgery. The entire capital was in an uproar.

Just as Huo Nanxiao had guessed, Xia Ningxi's name spread throughout every corner of the capital city overnight.

Many people in high society circles have heard about this.

After a period of quiet, the various socialite groups have become lively again.

Socialite A said, "Have you heard about the Qiu family? I heard that Qiu Shiming's daughter had an accident and her hands were crushed into a pulp."

Socialite B: "I know about this. It even made the news. The little girl is so pitiful."

Socialite A: "It is said that she had a limb replacement surgery at Ninghai Hospital yesterday, and it was successful."

Socialite C: "What do you mean? I don't understand."

Socialite A: "Basically, her hands have 'grown' back."

"Really? No way!" Socialite C sent a shocked emoji.

Socialite A said, "It's on the news, so I don't think it's fake. I heard this is the first time this surgery has been performed in our capital city. Who was that? Didn't the Mo family's young master have an amputation in an accident last year? You can go to Ninghai Hospital to have a look."

Mo Huiru appeared: "Is what you're saying true?"

“Really, you see the news, the reports are never false,” socialite A replied.

Mo Huiru searched online and found that all the media in the capital were reporting on this matter. She immediately tagged Xia Luoluo in the group, but no one responded for a long time.

"Strange, Xia Luoluo isn't in the group chat?" Mo Huiru asked.

Fu Mingyan popped up in the group chat: "What do you want with Xia Luoluo?"

Mo Huiru: "I want to see Xia Ningxi about my brother's illness. I'd like to ask her if she can make an introduction."

"You want Xia Luoluo to introduce you? Are you out of your mind? That woman might not even help you. Her wicked schemes got Zhang Lina arrested. You dare to ask her for help? Amazing!" Fu Mingyan, who seemed to have gotten the information from somewhere, made sarcastic remarks in the group chat.

Everyone was stunned.

"Zhang Lina is in jail? What happened?"

What did Xia Luoluo do?

"Fu Mingyan, why are you talking so incoherently? Where have you been? Come out and explain yourself."

A group of people were in an uproar, tagging Fu Mingyan and demanding that she explain herself.

Fu Mingyan manually circled Xia Luoluo's WeChat ID and replied, "You can ask her yourselves."

After that, Fu Mingyan went completely offline and wouldn't answer any questions anyone asked her. Everyone had no choice but to send messages to Xia Luoluo.

However, Xia Luoluo did not reply to any of these messages. It wasn't that she didn't see them, but rather that her phone was with Xia Wanwan, and Xia Luoluo had no way to reply to them. However, Xia Luoluo could see the chat content.

"There are rumors everywhere about you and Zhang Lina. How do you explain that?" Xia Wanwan asked.

Xia Luoluo lowered her head, her face full of grievance: "Sister, I really don't know why Zhang Lina would do such a thing."

Xia Wanwan said, "I won't expose you for saying such things in front of outsiders, but it's a bit much to pretend to be stupid in front of me."

Xia Luoluo's face stiffened, and she nervously clenched her hands. "I... I don't know why my sister thinks this way about me. I really don't know anything."

"You said the same things when you pushed me down the stairs last time, Xia Luoluo. Do you really think I'm stupid? If you weren't my sister, I would have had Nan Xiao take you in for questioning long ago!" Xia Wanwan was furious.

Seeing that she couldn't keep up the act any longer, Xia Luoluo explained, "I have met Zhang Lina, but I didn't ask her to do such a thing. The reason she wanted to harm Xia Ningxi was only because the two of them had a grudge in the past. It really has nothing to do with me."

"Why would they have a grudge?" Xia Wanwan questioned.

Xia Luoluo said, "Xia Ningxi humiliated Lina quite a bit at the banquet before, which is why she holds a grudge against Xia Ningxi. Sister, you have to believe me, this really has nothing to do with me. If Young Master Huo asks, you must explain for me."

She held Xia Wanwan's hand and begged, her tears welling up with grievance.

Xia Wanwan felt uncomfortable seeing Xia Luoluo's appearance. She said, "You'd better make sure this has nothing to do with you. I heard that Zhang Lina has been sent to the police station. If nothing unexpected happens, she won't get away with it. If she implicates you, even I won't be able to protect you."

"I understand, don't worry, sister. Zhang Lina isn't that bad. She wouldn't frame me for no reason." Xia Luoluo smiled, but although her smile was beautiful, she was more scared than anyone else. She was terrified, but she didn't dare to show it.

Xia Wanwan said, "Everyone in the group is discussing this, so don't talk in the group for the next few days. Also, Ning Xi had such a major surgery, so someone will probably come to interview her at home today. Go and prepare."

"Prepare? I don't think we need to. I heard that Xia Ningxi has already moved into the Huo family's old mansion. No one should come to interview us. The reporters and media should all be gathered at the Huo family's place by now," Xia Luoluo said.

And that is indeed the case.

Early in the morning, the television screens were filled with news of the successful surgery.

Zhou Fenglin sat in front of the television, looking sullen and angry, his face turning green.

Seeing the two sisters come down, Zhou Fenglin said sarcastically, "What time is it? You're only getting up now. No wonder you can't compare to some people."

"What is Mother complaining about?" Xia Wanwan asked her.

Zhou Fenglin jumped up from the sofa. "What are you so sour about? Do you know that Xia Ningxi has become a big celebrity in our capital city? Look at this TV, it's all about her. There are so many reports about her that the TV is almost overflowing. And you still have the mood to sleep in!"

Xia Wanwan glanced at the TV news and happened to see Xia Ningxi. She smiled slightly and said, "Isn't this a good thing? Ningxi is our family. Her fame is a good thing for the Xia family as well."

"What good news? Are you stupid? What good will it do you if she becomes famous? It will only make Young Master Huo look down on you even more! Even at a time like this, you still know how to boost someone else's ego. Don't you even look at your own behavior now?" Zhou Fenglin gritted his teeth in anger.

Xia Wanwan complained, "Did my mother only find out I use a wheelchair on this first day?"

Zhou Fenglin said, "Since you know you're in poor health, you should be even more eager to curry favor with Young Master Huo. Otherwise, how could you possibly marry into the Huo family?"

"Hasn't Xia Ningxi already married Nan Xiao? Where in the Huo family can I still stand?" Xia Wanwan said coldly, her voice also becoming colder.

Zhou Fenglin said, "If you don't have a foothold, don't you know how to fight for yourself? The two of them will definitely get divorced, and Huo Nanxiao can't go back on his word and break his promise! It's precisely at times like this that you should stand by Huo Shao's side and not let him be bewitched by Xia Ningxi!"

Xia Wanwan remained silent and ignored Zhou Fenglin, silently driving her electric wheelchair to the restaurant.

Ignored, Zhou Fenglin's face turned green with anger. He pointed a trembling finger at her and said, "I'm talking to you, didn't you hear me? What do you mean by this?"

Xia Wanwan ignored her.

Zhou Fenglin was even angrier.

Xia Luoluo helped Zhou Fenglin, who was about to collapse, and said, "Mother, calm down. My sister is in a bad mood. Please don't take it to heart."

"And you! I haven't even mentioned you yet! What did you do last night? Do you know what people outside are saying? Haven't you done enough shameful things?!" Zhou Fenglin shook off Xia Luoluo's hand and continued to berate her.

Xia Luoluo blushed and said, "I didn't know about that."

"Hmph, one of you has no tricks, and the other has no ability. The two of you combined are no match for Xia Ningxi. Are you trying to drive me crazy?!" Zhou Fenglin was exasperated.

Charlotte felt wronged: "We don't know how to cure diseases."

"If you can't cure diseases, at least you can seduce men, right? How come the two of you combined can't even handle Young Master Huo alone!" Zhou Fenglin was so angry that his teeth itched.

Xia Luoluo said, "Young Master Huo doesn't care about me, so why is my mother telling me this?"

Zhou Fenglin said, "Your sister is unwilling to compete with others, so why don't you help her out a little? What kind of rumors are people spreading now! If this continues, our whole family will be unable to survive in the capital, and you two will be the subject of everyone's gossip."

Xia Luoluo lowered her head and remained silent.

As for Xia Wanwan, she had already started eating breakfast, sitting alone at the table, enjoying her meal.

Zhou Fenglin rushed over and overturned her plate. "You still want to eat? I'm ordering you, don't you understand?"

"I understand, so what?" Xia Wanwan asked back.

Zhou Fenglin said, "Xia Ningxi is already famous throughout the capital. Why don't you find a way to suppress her? Do you want her to step on your head for the rest of her life? Do you know how people outside are praising her?"

The wealthy socialites all sang her praises, and even members of the four major families spoke highly of her. Do you know what that means? If you don't work hard, where will you find your place?
