Chapter 527 She was the one who arrived first

Neither of them spoke the rest of the way.

Xia Ningxi sat in the passenger seat, calmly watching the scenery outside the window. The sun was very strong today, the sunlight was a bit dazzling, and it shone on the car window, making it feel quite hot...

She took a blanket and draped it over her sun-exposed legs, leaned back in her chair, and closed her eyes to rest.

They arrived at the company quickly. Huo Nanxiao went to the conference room to meet the client, while Xia Ningxi waited for him in the president's office.

Ye Su placed the freshly brewed coffee on the table. "Young Madam, here is your coffee."

"Thank you," Xia Ningxi said gently.

Ye Su said, "Does the young mistress not need to go to the hospital today?"

"Yes, take a break. What about Huo Nanxiao? How long will it take him to finish his work?" Xia Ningxi asked.

"The president has scheduled two meetings, and it will probably take at least an hour to finish them," Ye Su replied.

"Okay." Xia Ningxi could only wait.

Ye Su asked in confusion, "Is there something urgent, young mistress?"

“It’s three o’clock. If we wait any longer, the Civil Affairs Bureau will close for the day,” Xia Ningxi replied.

Ye Su's expression immediately changed: "What is the young mistress doing at the Civil Affairs Bureau? Could it be..."

She didn't dare continue, but the clever girl had already guessed that Xia Ningxi was going to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a divorce from Huo Nanxiao. Apart from this, they didn't have any other business that required going to the Civil Affairs Bureau.

But if it really is a divorce...

"Young Madam, have you thought this through? What will happen to the children if you get divorced? The young master and the others are still young. Can you bear to see them without a father or mother?" Ye Su couldn't help but persuade her.

As an outsider, she did not want Huo Nanxiao and Xia Ningxi to divorce.

Because they already have a family and lovely children, a divorce would be bad for everyone.

"Young Madam, please reconsider. Many things don't necessarily have to come to the point of divorce. Perhaps there's still room for negotiation," Ye Su advised.

Xia Ningxi smiled wryly: "If I don't step down, what will happen to Xia Wanwan?"

Her clear eyes gazed at Ye Su.

Ye Su froze, opened her mouth, but couldn't utter a single word!

She didn't know how to answer Xia Ningxi's question, so she lowered her head and remained silent.

Xia Ningxi silently sipped her coffee, saying nothing more.

Everyone knew perfectly well that Xia Wanwan existed.

"You can go out now. I want to be alone for a while," Xia Ningxi said gently to Ye Su.

Ye Su nodded and turned to leave.

The CEO's office was enormous and magnificent, with every corner exuding extravagance.

The Huo family is incredibly wealthy, and many women want to marry Huo Nanxiao. It's not that Xia Ningxi doesn't want a divorce, but that her marriage can last. As long as Xia Wanwan is around, her marriage is destined to fail.

But never mind...

For Xia Ningxi, being able to save her three children was enough.

Huo Nanxiao stayed in the conference room for a very long time.

Xia Ningxi was a little tired, so she lay down on the sofa in his office for a while.

While she was half asleep, she heard a knock on the door. She didn't listen carefully until someone came in and their voices disturbed her, at which point she opened her eyes.

"Ning Xi, you're here too?" The woman who came in was surprised.

Xia Ningxi vaguely recognized the person in front of her and realized it was Xia Wanwan. She sat up from the sofa, tidied her messy hair, and reverted to her cold demeanor, replying indifferently, "You've come to see Huo Nanxiao?"

"Yes, I need to talk to him about some important things." Xia Wanwan did not deny it.

Xia Ningxi said, "He's busy, you'll have to wait a while."

"Ye Su already told me." Xia Wanwan wasn't in a hurry. Seeing Xia Ningxi sleeping on the sofa, she asked, "Did you come to see Nan Xiao today for something?"

“We came together,” Xia Ningxi replied.

Xia Wanwan said, "So that's how it is. I didn't know you were here. If I had known, I definitely wouldn't have come today."

"It's your business if you're looking for Huo Nanxiao. What does it have to do with whether I'm here or not? Is there anything I can't listen to?" Xia Ningxi retorted.

Xia Wanwan's expression was not good: "The reason I went to see him was actually because of that matter that has been making a lot of noise lately."

"Are you here to discuss marriage?" Xia Ningxi asked her bluntly.

Xia Wanwan's expression was rather unpleasant.

“Come back tomorrow. He’s too busy to talk to you today. You can talk to him after I’ve finished my business,” Xia Ningxi said.

Xia Wanwan: "Ning Xi, I'm so sorry. It was my mother and the others who made things worse. I didn't want to put Nan Xiao in a difficult position, but they are now determined to have me marry into the Huo family... I... I never intended to hurt you."

"But you have already hurt me." Xia Ningxi said coldly.

Xia Wanwan said, "I'm sorry, I really didn't mean to."

"There's no point in telling me this, and I don't want to hear it. Don't pretend to be a victim, or outsiders will think I did something to you. Huo Nanxiao is indeed busy today, so you should go back." Xia Ningxi directly gave him the order to leave; she didn't want this woman to ruin her last day.

Xia Wanwan had no intention of leaving. She could tell that Xia Ningxi didn't like her, so she said, "If you don't want to see me, I'll wait outside. I really have something very important to discuss with Nan Xiao. I'll leave once I've resolved it."

After saying that, Xia Wanwan pushed her wheelchair out.

There was a huge crowd watching outside the CEO's office.

Everyone in the department looked at Xia Wanwan, wondering why she was just sitting there.

Could it be that Xia Ningxi kicked him out?

That was the guess in everyone's mind, and they all looked at each other with strange expressions.

Ye Su also realized that Xia Wanwan's actions were not appropriate, and immediately said to Xia Ningxi, "Young Madam, there are so many people watching outside. If Miss Wanwan just sits there like this, outsiders will probably think that she has suffered some injustice."

"Ha, she's the one who wants to stay and refuse to leave, and now she's blaming me?" Xia Ningxi said angrily.

Ye Su said, "Outsiders don't know about this. They will only think that the young mistress bullied her."

Xia Ningxi was so angry that she gritted her teeth and got up to leave.

But just as she stood up, she saw Huo Nanxiao walking over from a distance, and he even met Xia Wanwan outside the door. He was probably wondering why Xia Wanwan was waiting at the door.

He glanced at Xia Ningxi as he walked into the office; his dark eyes were so deep and unfathomable.

Xia Ningxi ignored Huo Nanxiao and Xia Wanwan, coldly saying, "Our business isn't finished yet. Can you come with me now?"

"Wait a moment," Huo Nanxiao replied.

Xia Ningxi was a little angry.

But Huo Nanxiao's gaze had already fallen on Xia Wanwan.

She got even angrier; she was the one who arrived first.
