Chapter 510 I promise you, I won't go back on my word.

"Hmph, Young Master Huo will not go back on his promise to us."

Would he betray Wanwan, who saved him, for your sake?

"That's ridiculous, Xia Ningxi, you think way too highly of yourself!"

Zhou Fenglin was sarcastic, believing that Xia Ningxi was humiliating herself.

The rest of the Xia family firmly believed that Huo Nanxiao would never let Xia Wanwan down.

If Huo Nanxiao were alone, he could naturally promise Xia Wanwan anything. If she wanted money, a partner, luxury goods, or antiques, Huo Nanxiao could give them to her.

But Huo Yuan is a person, a person of flesh and blood, with his own thoughts, and he doesn't want to be controlled by others.

"Daddy...are you really going to give me away to someone else?" Huo Yuan's eyes were filled with tears, as if he had been abandoned, and his lips were tightly pursed.

The little guy looked at Huo Nanxiao pitifully, as if tears would fall immediately if he said just one word. His little appearance was very distressing to see.

Huo Nanxiao suppressed his anger, his cold gaze fixed on Xia Wenhe and Zhou Fenglin like a sharp blade: "When did I say I would give Huo Yuan to you?"

Both of them were taken aback.

They were all stunned!

Zhou Fenglin said, "Isn't it the same as giving Huo Yuan to Wanwan by adopting him? According to the law, Wanwan is Huo Yuan's mother."

"I did not give A Yuan to anyone," Huo Nanxiao said, displeased.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Fenglin immediately became agitated: "Young Master Huo didn't say that before. You promised us that you would give Huo Yuan to Wanwan. Now that Wanwan has become like this to save you, does Young Master Huo intend to betray her?"

"I will repay what I owe her, and it has nothing to do with Huo Yuan." Huo Nanxiao said coldly.

Xia Wenhe and Zhou Fenglin realized that Huo Nanxiao was not going to keep his promise!

But if that's really the case, what will happen to Xia Wanwan?

Are we to leave Xia Wanwan with nothing? She risked half her life for Huo Nanxiao!

"What do you mean by that, Young Master Huo? Are you going back on your word? How could you betray Wanwan's feelings? You've gone too far!" Xia Wenhe was furious.

Zhou Fenglin was also furious: "We absolutely disagree with returning Huo Yuan."

Xia Luoluo also chimed in, "Young Master Huo, Sister Ning Xi already has two children. Why does she insist on competing with my sister for Huo Yuan? She knows perfectly well that my sister has difficulty conceiving again. Isn't she pushing Sister Wanwan to her death?"

The rest of the family disagreed and wanted to keep Huo Yuan hostage in their own hands.

Although they kept saying they were thinking of Xia Wanwan's best interests, Huo Nanxiao knew very well that they were keeping Huo Yuan around to acquire the Huo family's wealth.

"I've given you quite a lot over the years." Huo Nanxiao narrowed his eyes dangerously, a chilling aura emanating from him.

His calm words were incredibly intimidating! They startled Xia Wenhe and the others into immediately shutting up.

Xia Luoluo didn't want Huo Yuan to be taken away by Xia Ningxi, but she didn't dare to speak up. She could only tug at Xia Wanwan's sleeve: "Sister, say something."

Xia Wanwan raised her head, forced a smile, and said, "Nan Xiao, you can do whatever you want, don't worry about me."

“A Yuan prefers Xia Ningxi,” Huo Nanxiao told her.

"I understand." Xia Wanwan smiled slightly, turned to Xia Ningxi and said, "I'm sorry for making you suffer. It's all my fault. Ayuan is your child. He will stay by your side from now on. I will also keep my mother in check and prevent them from causing you any more trouble."

"Are you crazy?" Zhou Fenglin rushed up excitedly.

Xia Wanwan said, "Mother, please don't make things difficult for Ningxi anymore. You are also a mother. If you are separated from your own flesh and blood, you will also suffer a lot."

Zhou Fenglin lowered his voice and gritted his teeth: "Do you know how important Huo Yuan is?!"

Xia Wanwan: "None of this has anything to do with me."

"You, you're a complete idiot!" Zhou Fenglin couldn't help but curse.

Xia Wanwan asked, "Is Mother going to continue making a scene?"

"I disagree!" Zhou Fenglin said aggressively.

Xia Wanwan: "It's not your place to disagree."

Zhou Fenglin cursed loudly, "Are you trying to rebel?"

"Stop making a scene. We're in the wrong here. Why are you making things so ugly, Mother?" Xia Wanwan questioned.

Zhou Fenglin said, "All of this is owed to us by Huo Nanxiao, and it's also owed to you. Have you forgotten how you were injured? Even if you agree to let Huo Yuan go, I will never agree!"

After a pause, Zhou Fenglin glared at Huo Nanxiao and threatened him: "Young Master Huo's life was saved by Wanwan. Are you planning to go back on your word and abandon Wanwan? You must give me an explanation today, or I will make a big fuss about this and let others judge!"

"Enough, Mother, stop talking!" Xia Wanwan shouted anxiously.

Zhou Fenglin ignored her and instead questioned Huo Nanxiao: "Why aren't you saying anything? You promised to marry Wanwan back then, and now that you've ruined her like this, are you just going to kick her to the curb?"

Huo Nanxiao said in a deep voice, "I will not change my promise to her."

"Fine! Since Young Master Huo is so agreeable, then don't keep Wanwan waiting any longer. Marry Wanwan right now, and I'll believe you!" Zhou Fenglin pressed aggressively.

Huo Nanxiao's handsome face was expressionless, and his deep eyes were even more chilling.

Zhou Fenglin was so intimidated by the man's powerful aura that she dared not speak, and quietly moved behind Xia Wenhe.

Xia Wenhe appeared very calm, but in reality, his heart was in his throat, and he was terrified.

Suddenly, Huo Nanxiao picked up Huo Yuan from the ground.

"go back."

The deep, magnetic voice echoed in Xia Ningxi's ears; without a doubt, these words were spoken to Xia Ningxi.

Xia Ningxi glanced at Xia Jingcheng, and seeing him nod slightly, she then led Xingxing and Chuchu away.

Once in the car, seeing Huo Nanxiao's gloomy face and silence, Xia Ningxi also remained silent and quietly fastened the children's seat belts.

Huo Nanxiao stepped on the gas and drove off.

There was not a sound inside the car the whole way.

Huo Yuan, on the other hand, was very sad. He lowered his head, tears welling up in his eyes.

Huo Nanxiao saw the children's faces in the rearview mirror, said nothing, and silently sent them back to Lanyuan.

All three children were frightened to varying degrees, so their emotions were very unstable. Huo Yuan, in particular, was pale all night and didn't dare to sleep. Huo Nanxiao stayed with Huo Yuan until the little guy fell asleep in his arms.

As for Xia Ningxi, she had a minor wrist injury, cut by Zhou Fenglin's fingernail. She found a first-aid kit and treated her wound simply.

The living room was very quiet.

The dim light fell on her, and her shadow looked somewhat haggard.

Hearing footsteps coming from upstairs, Xia Ningxi turned around and met the man's cold and sharp eyes. She didn't speak and continued to disinfect her wrist.

Huo Nanxiao's expression was complicated as he looked at her wound. After a long while, he finally spoke: "Go do a paternity test with Huo Yuan tomorrow."

"Why?" Xia Ningxi suddenly looked up, surprised.

Huo Nanxiao said, "If he wants to register your household, he must do a paternity test."

"Are you serious?" Xia Ningxi asked, half believing and half doubting.

Huo Nanxiao said, "Seriously."

Xia Ningxi was stunned, and it took her a full three seconds to react. She laughed and threw herself into Huo Nanxiao's arms, hugging him happily: "You're serious, you can't go back on your word!"

Huo Nanxiao froze, staring in astonishment at the girl who was hugging him. She seemed to be overjoyed. Huo Nanxiao had never seen Xia Ningxi so out of control before, and this was the first time she had taken the initiative to hug him since returning to the country.

It turns out she wasn't so cold after all; she was as happy as a child.

Huo Nanxiao gently embraced Xia Ningxi, holding her slender body, and said, word by word, "I won't go back on my word."

"That's great! I won't have to worry about anyone taking A Yuan away from me anymore, and A Yuan won't have to live in fear every day. I'll go tell A Yuan this good news right now."

She released her grip on Huo Nanxiao's hand and ran upstairs quickly.

Huo Yuan was overjoyed when he heard the news.

"Really? Mommy, is everything Daddy said true?"

"Can I really stay with Mommy forever?"

The little guy asked twice.

Xia Ningxi nodded: "Yes, Mommy didn't lie to you. Your daddy has already agreed. Tomorrow we'll get a paternity test done and then change your household registration. Once you're registered under Mommy's name, you'll be just like Xingxing and Chuchu, and no one can take you away from us."

"Wow, that's great!" Huo Yuan excitedly jumped into Xia Ningxi's arms.

Upon discovering Huo Nanxiao standing outside the door, Huo Yuan hugged Xia Ningxi briefly before rushing to hug Huo Nanxiao as well.

"Daddy, Daddy!" he called out in his childish voice.

Huo Nanxiao bent down to catch the little guy who rushed towards him, picked him up in his arms, and said with a smile, "Why are you so happy?"

"Daddy, can I really register my child under Mommy's household registration?" Huo Yuan asked.

Huo Nanxiao said, "Okay."

"Great, Daddy, I love you." Little Huo Yuan happily kissed Huo Nanxiao.

A small lip print was left on Huo Nanxiao's cheek. Huo Nanxiao smiled and hugged his good son, saying, "You're not allowed to get angry with Daddy anymore, okay?"

"That won't work," Huo Yuan replied with a smile.

Huo Nanxiao chuckled: "You silly child, you just said you loved me, and now you can't even stay calm when I'm angry?"

“If Daddy bullies Mommy, A-Yuan will be angry,” Huo Yuan replied very seriously.

Huo Nanxiao glanced at Xia Ningxi and said to Huo Yuan, "I won't bully your mommy."

"Nonsense, Daddy bullies Mommy a lot, I've seen it all." A child's eyes are the purest and most innocent.

Huo Nanxiao was at a loss for words to answer Huo Yuan. He picked up the little guy, walked to Xia Ningxi's side, and placed him in her arms.

Xia Ningxi raised an eyebrow at him.

"Shall I sleep with the child tonight?" Huo Nanxiao asked.

Xia Ningxi said, "This is probably not a good idea, they all like to sleep with me."

"They've been sleeping with you for many days now," Huo Nanxiao said with a hint of complaint.

Xia Ningxi smiled and said, "That depends on whether the child is willing to sleep with you."

She let go of their hands and asked the three little ones, "Which of you wants to sleep with Huo Nanxiao?"

Chu Chu and Xing Xing immediately shook their heads.

Huo Yuan clung to Xia Ningxi's arm and wouldn't let go.

All three children wanted their mother; none of them wanted Huo Nanxiao.

Huo Nanxiao felt a slight pain in his face. He said seriously, "I have toys and snacks in my room. Are you sure you don't want to come back with me?"

"I won't go!"

The three little ones spoke almost in unison.

Huo Nanxiao was exhausted.
