Xia Ningxi lay in a pool of blood after a difficult labor from her two-year marriage, completely forgetting that it was the day of his wedding to someone else.
Huo Nanxiao said, "Leave th...
Chapter 539 Following him wholeheartedly
Huo Nanxiao stormed up to the hotel and found the front desk staff to check Xia Ningxi and Li Yancheng's room numbers.
Upon hearing this request, the staff member's expression changed, and he said apologetically, "Young Master Huo, this is against the rules."
"What rules?" Huo Nanxiao's voice was icy cold.
"Um, I'll check for Young Master Huo right now!" The staff member said apologetically before immediately operating the computer to check Xia Ningxi and Li Yancheng's information, and quickly found the results.
"Their room number is 7939. They've been together the whole time. They just went upstairs, but..."
Before the staff member could finish speaking, Huo Nanxiao stormed off in a huff!
"Young Master Huo? Young Master Huo! I haven't even finished speaking yet! The two of them went to a traditional Chinese medicine massage parlor and are getting massages there right now..."
She chased after him to warn him, but Huo Nanxiao had already entered the elevator. She didn't know if he heard her or if he heard her at all. But looking at Huo Nanxiao's murderous expression, she felt like he hadn't heard her.
"Sigh." The woman sighed helplessly.
A colleague rushed up and asked, "What happened? Why was Young Master Huo so menacing just now? Did something serious happen?"
"Young Master Li and Xia Ningxi checked into a hotel," the woman replied.
A colleague exclaimed in surprise, "What? They booked a hotel room? Why would the two of them go to a hotel room for no reason? Xia Ningxi used to be Young Master Huo's woman, and the Huo family's chosen daughter-in-law!"
"What good is it if Master Huo likes her? It's Young Master Huo who's going to marry her. He only has eyes for Xia Wanwan and won't listen to the old man at all. Look at how grand this engagement banquet is today. All the big shots in our capital city are here. It's clear how much Young Master Huo likes Xia Wanwan." The woman sighed.
My colleague said, "Why are you so eager to come and investigate Li Shao and Xia Ningxi's affair? The way you're all so menacing doesn't look like you're looking for someone; you're clearly here to catch them in the act. What if a fight breaks out? It would be terrible if someone got killed. Should we call the police first?"
Upon hearing that someone might die, everyone around, especially the children, became tense. They didn't want such a thing to happen at the hotel; if something really did happen, they would suffer too.
They were all people who had witnessed revenge killings and knew how crazy a man could go after being cheated on. They all took out their phones to call the police, fearing that Huo Nanxiao might do something irreversible in a moment of impulsiveness.
Fortunately, the woman stopped them just as they were about to make the call.
"Don't worry, Young Master Li and Xia Ningxi only came to the hotel to get a spot for a massage at the traditional Chinese medicine clinic upstairs. They're already with the doctor right now," the woman replied with a smile.
Almost at the same moment, Huo Nanxiao kicked open the door.
There was no one inside, the things on the bed were clean, and the bathroom was clean and tidy, so it didn't seem like anyone had been there. So where were Xia Ningxi and Li Yancheng?
Did we come to the wrong room?
Or did the front desk staff lie to him?
Huo Nanxiao was furious and stormed to the front desk, his anger blazing.
Seeing Huo Nanxiao's murderous look, the staff member hurriedly reminded him in a trembling voice, "Young Master Huo, Xia Ningxi, and Young Master Li are not in the room. They went to the traditional Chinese medicine massage parlor on the 6th floor. You can only find them on the 6th floor."
"Why didn't you tell me just now?" Huo Nanxiao's voice was sharp.
The woman, pale-faced, explained with a wronged expression, "I told you, but you walked too fast and I didn't hear you clearly."
Huo Nanxiao left with a dark face, but his anger had clearly subsided somewhat. He probably thought that Xia Ningxi had been tricked into the room by Li Yancheng after hearing that she had only gone for a massage.
The sixth floor.
The traditional Chinese medicine clinic is quite large. As you approach, you can smell a faint medicinal fragrance, without any pungent odor. It has a scent similar to floral tea, which gives people a refreshing feeling.
Two rows of greeters stood at the entrance, and upon seeing Huo Nanxiao appear, they immediately bowed respectfully and greeted him.
One of the hostesses stepped forward: "Hello, Mr. Huo, what kind of service do you require?"
"Where is Xia Ningxi?" Huo Nanxiao demanded.
The hostess was stunned: "Who is Xia Ningxi?"
"The woman who came in with Li Yancheng." Huo Nanxiao's voice was icy.
The hostess suddenly realized, "Oh, it's her! She's in the Water Blue Fragrance Pavilion private room. Does Young Master Huo want to see her? I'll go and inform her right away."
"No need, I'll go myself." Huo Nanxiao said without hesitation.
The hostess was a little flustered: "But it's not proper for Young Master Huo to go see her in person. We need to notify her first and get her permission before you can go in."
However, Huo Nanxiao ignored him completely and walked in without any politeness. When the group saw this, they wanted to stop him but dared not.
"What should we do? Should we call security?" the hostess asked anxiously.
"That's Huo Nanxiao, why did you call security?"
"But he is not allowed to enter the guests' private rooms without permission. Logically, the security should be called to resolve this issue."
"I think you don't want to live anymore. Who is that woman? And who is Huo Nanxiao? If we offend Huo Nanxiao for a woman, we might all be kicked out, and this store might even go out of business."
His colleagues panicked, because Huo Nanxiao was fully capable of doing such a thing.
Thinking of this, they dared not stop him and let Huo Nanxiao go his own way.
At this moment, Xia Ningxi was already lying on the small bed in the private room. The doctor who had been massaging her meridians had just left. Because Xia Ningxi's health was not good and some of her injuries had not fully healed, the traditional Chinese medicine doctor adjusted the prescription for her bath after giving her a massage.
Xia Ningxi waited in the private room for a long time but the doctor didn't return. Hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, Xia Ningxi thought it was the doctor returning and said, "It's a bit cold, can you turn the temperature up two degrees?"
drop.
The air conditioner was turned off immediately.
Xia Ningxi paused for a moment and said, "I meant turn up the temperature, not turn it off."
No one answered Xia Ningxi's question.
The temperature in the private room, with the air conditioning off, was rising rapidly. Xia Ningxi sat up from the bed, put on a coat, and was about to ask who it was when she saw Huo Nanxiao standing in front of her. Xia Ningxi was completely stunned.
"What are you doing here? What are you doing here?" Her voice sounded uneasy.
She looked around frantically, but there was no one else there. Even the door to the private room had been locked from the inside by Huo Nanxiao. At this moment, only the two of them remained in the steamy private room.
Xia Ningxi didn't want to see Huo Nanxiao, nor did she want to continue with the next project, so she put on her clothes and was about to leave.
Huo Nanxiao grasped her wrist and said coldly, "What benefits did he give you that made you so devoted to him?"
