Chapter 526 Two Points: Obtaining a Divorce Certificate at the Civil Affairs Bureau

She didn't know how to face Huo Nanxiao, so she pretended that she had drunk too much last night and was not thinking clearly. She quickly reached out to grab the clothes scattered on the bedside table.

Huo Nanxiao said nothing, just stared at her, his deep eyes cold and sharp, with an indescribable feeling.

The man's silence made her feel extremely uncomfortable.

She quickly changed her clothes.

Huo Nanxiao also got up, and unlike Xia Ningxi who was restrained, he showed no intention of avoiding suspicion, and changed his clothes in front of Xia Ningxi.

But he... wasn't wearing anything!

"Don't you need to cover it up?" Xia Ningxi couldn't help but ask.

Huo Nanxiao: "It's not like you haven't used it before."

"You...I...I give up." Xia Ningxi was speechless at this guy's words!

She just felt it was indecent for Huo Nanxiao to be walking around in front of her without clothes so early in the morning. As a grown man, he should have some sense of shame and at least go to the dressing room to change his clothes, right?

What did he mean by saying "It's not like we haven't used it before"?

What does it mean to "have used"?

Depend on!

Don't talk to this guy, lest he lead you astray.

Xia Ningxi tried to remain calm, quickly picked up her pajamas, and rummaged through them. Her undershirt was nowhere to be found. She hurriedly looked around, but there was nothing there.

"What are you looking for?" Huo Nanxiao noticed that Xia Ningxi was looking for something, looked down at her, and asked coldly.

Xia Ningxi asked, "Where are my clothes?"

"Isn't that what you're holding in your hand?" Huo Nanxiao retorted.

Xia Ningxi blushed and said, "There are two more undergarments."

Huo Nanxiao immediately realized what Xia Ningxi was talking about. He opened the wardrobe, took out a new set of underwear and panties, and threw them on the bed next to her legs: "Change into these."

"A see-through lace dress? Who did you buy it for?" Xia Ningxi's beautiful face darkened.

The man paused, his hand holding the tie still. He turned around and walked step by step toward Xia Ningxi, leaning down to get close to her blushing cheeks...

His cool fingers lightly lifted her chin, his breath hot on her skin: "Of course it's for you."

"You...you scoundrel!" Xia Ningxi's ears turned so red they almost bled.

Huo Nanxiao smiled gently, his warm fingers lightly brushing across her cool and soft lips, saying each word clearly: "If you don't like it, you don't have to wear it, I don't mind."

"..." Xia Ningxi felt that he was still under the influence of alcohol!

His strong, tall body was almost touching Xia Ningxi. The distance between them was so close that Xia Ningxi could even feel his heartbeat.

The man's hot breath enveloped her, and remembering his passion last night, Xia Ningxi immediately stepped back.

Seeing her avoidance, Huo Nanxiao smiled slightly, said nothing, changed his clothes, and left the bedroom.

Xia Ningxi didn't want to stay in Huo Nanxiao's room for too long, so she quickly changed her clothes and went out.

The two walked out of the bedroom one after the other, and encountered several maids who were disturbing the cleaning.

"Good afternoon, young master and young mistress."

The maids greeted them in unison.

Huo Nanxiao ignored them and walked straight past the crowd.

"Good afternoon." Xia Ningxi greeted everyone politely before entering the elevator.

The maids stood there dumbfounded until the elevator doors closed completely before they excitedly exclaimed, "Young Master and Young Mistress slept together last night?"

"It's already past noon, and they've only just gotten up!"

"What happened? Could it be that the two of them have reconciled?"

Everyone was shocked because Huo Nanxiao rarely slept in, let alone slept until noon with Xia Ningxi, unless they were really exhausted.

I'm exhausted...

Could it be that the young master and young mistress last night...?

The girls blushed as they talked.

Xia Ningxi had no idea that simply sleeping with Huo Nanxiao in his room was a huge deal to outsiders.

She was exhausted after a long night and her stomach was growling with hunger. She went into the kitchen and saw that there were many dishes prepared and porridge simmering on a low flame. She turned off the heat, took out the dishes, and also gave Huo Nanxiao a bowl and chopsticks.

Huo Nanxiao glanced at Xia Ningxi thoughtfully.

"Are you going to the company this afternoon?" Xia Ningxi asked him.

Huo Nanxiao: "Take a break today."

"That's perfect. Today's a workday, let's get the divorce certificate, then we can be completely even."

Xia Ningxi lowered her head, ate her porridge, and calmly expressed her thoughts.

Huo Nanxiao didn't say anything, but picked up a piece of meat and put it in Xia Ningxi's bowl. "You're too thin, eat more."

“If you don’t answer, I’ll take that as a yes.” Xia Ningxi continued the previous topic.

"good."

It took the man a very long time to finally utter that one word.

Lunch was plentiful, but neither the couple had much of an appetite.

Xia Ningxi only ate a couple of bites before she couldn't eat anymore. Huo Nanxiao didn't eat either, but he did put a lot of food on Xia Ningxi's plate, which she didn't touch.

"I'm full. I'm going upstairs to pack my things. We'll head to the Civil Affairs Bureau together at 2 o'clock."

Xia Ningxi put down her chopsticks, her voice very soft, and the sentence she uttered was surprisingly calm.

Huo Nanxiao was unusually quiet today, his coldness was frightening, and the chill emanating from him seemed to devour everything around him, causing everyone who got close to him to shiver involuntarily.

Xia Ningxi didn't know what to say, so she simply went upstairs.

She searched through her wardrobe for a long time before picking out the prettiest dress, pairing it with high heels, and putting on a delicate makeup look.

Normally, when she has free time, she's either in the lab or at home taking care of her child, and she rarely dresses up. But today, Xia Ningxi spent a full two hours putting on her makeup.

She looked at herself in the mirror, so beautiful. She gave a wry smile and applied some lipstick.

I glanced at the wall clock; it was two o'clock. Time to wrap things up.

She took a deep breath, gave a confident and generous smile, and got up to go downstairs.

Huo Nanxiao was captivated by the girl's attire, a look of amazement flashing deep in his eyes. He stared intently at the glamorous girl before him and asked, "Why are you dressed up so beautifully?"

"Who says you can't dress up nicely when you're getting a divorce? What if you meet someone you like at the Civil Affairs Bureau?" Xia Ningxi said with a smile.

Huo Nanxiao: "My company has an important client, so I need to go to the company first."

“Okay, I’ll go with you. We’ll go to the Civil Affairs Bureau together after you’re done.” Xia Ningxi said generously without making a fuss.

Huo Nanxiao's handsome face was gloomy.

"What? You don't want to? No way?" Xia Ningxi was surprised.

Huo Nanxiao snorted coldly: "There's nothing I'm unwilling to do. Since you want to come with me, then let's go together."

He grabbed his car keys and went out.
