Chapter 693 You Can't Handle It All

The news of Huo Nanxiao and Xia Ningxi's marriage has never been announced to the public.

Huo Nanxiao has kept this a secret all these years, also for Xia Wanwan's sake.

Initially, when Xia Ningxi appeared in the public eye, the outside world was very unfriendly to her. They all thought that Xia Ningxi was a third party who suddenly appeared and pointed fingers at her. However, when they saw that the child with Xia Ningxi looked exactly like Huo Yuan, the outside world's opinion of Xia Ningxi changed.

However, at most they believe that Xia Ningxi is a third party to Huo Nanxiao to relieve his loneliness, and they do not believe that the two are truly in love.

But now, the news of their divorce has shocked everyone in the capital.

No one expected that Xia Ningxi would be Huo Nanxiao's first wife, and even fewer people would have thought that Xia Wanwan, who had been the eldest daughter-in-law of the Huo family for six years, was actually the third party in this marriage.

People inside the hospital were also talking about it.

The department that usually spends the most time with Xia Ningxi started talking about her after a busy morning.

Dr. Liu said, "Did you all see the news this morning? Dr. Xia is actually Huo Shao's first wife."

The head nurse was also shocked: "I always knew that their relationship was unusual, but I never expected it to be this unusual."

Dr. Liu sighed, "Yes. Xia Wanwan has been treated at our hospital for so many years, and Young Master Huo has come to see her almost every year. His concern for her goes beyond what is normal. At first, I really thought Xia Wanwan was his wife. I never expected that she wasn't at all."

The head nurse said indignantly, "But isn't what Young Master Huo is doing unfair to Xia Ningxi? How can he, as a married man, still have the nerve to get so close to Xia Wanwan?"

"He probably doesn't like Dr. Xia. I guess the divorce was forced by Xia Wanwan. You all know what Xia Wanwan's attitude is towards Young Master Huo. She's determined to marry into the Huo family. Dr. Xia is so pitiful, having to move to a mistress's place." Dr. Liu sighed inwardly.

The hospital was filled with rumors about Xia Ningxi and Huo Nanxiao.

The Ling family also heard about this.

Tian Chunxia paced anxiously outside the operating room, repeatedly dialing Ling Shuang's number.

Hearing the elevator doors open, Tian Chunxia turned around and saw Ling Shuang hurriedly walking out.

"What happened?" Ling Shuang asked.

Tian Chunxia asked, "Have you heard about the Huo family?"

"What's wrong?" Ling Shuang asked, puzzled. She had been busy with company matters since taking Lin Jiangbei into the operating room today and hadn't paid any attention to what was happening outside.

Tian Chunxia said, "The doctor who performed the surgery on Jiang Bei is Huo Nanxiao's ex-wife. She just divorced Huo Nanxiao yesterday. It's Xia Ningxi. The news was exposed this morning. You've been in contact with the Huo family recently. Don't you know about this?"

“I knew their relationship was unusual, but I didn’t know they were husband and wife,” Ling Shuang answered truthfully.

Tian Chunxia said, "They just got divorced yesterday, and Xia Ningxi is performing surgery on Jiang Bei today. Do you think she might be in a bad mood and accidentally kill Jiang Bei on the operating table?"

She was terrified; by the end, her whole body was trembling.

When Ling Shuang heard this, she felt very heavy-hearted. She had seen many people who were half-dead after their divorce, unable to concentrate on anything and making frequent mistakes. She also felt a bit more fear and unease, but in order to comfort Tian Chunxia, ​​she patiently said, "Don't worry, don't be afraid, it won't be like that."

"Really? Jiangbei's health isn't good. The doctor said that if this surgery isn't successful, he won't have another chance to have surgery. I don't want him to die, A-Shuang, please think of something." Tian Chunxia held Ling Shuang's hand, her voice hoarse.

Ling Shuang said, "Xia Ningxi is a legitimate doctor. You have to trust her professional ethics. She would never let her personal matters affect her patients. Besides, there's Tang En and his entire team. Their team is world-renowned. You have to believe in their abilities."

"Okay." Tian Chunxia said heavily.

Ling Shuang continued to reassure them: "Don't overthink things. The situation in Jiangbei is already bad. You need to be mentally prepared. If the surgery fails, we can't blame everything on the doctors. We have to believe that they have done their best. On the operating table, they want the patient to live more than anyone else."

Every surgery is a race against death.

If they doubt Xia Ningxi's ability to perform the surgery simply because she was divorced, and attribute everything to Xia Ningxi, wouldn't that be too unfair?

Since they chose Xia Ningxi to do it from the beginning, they should trust her unconditionally.

Tian Chunxia could only listen to Ling Shuang and stopped replying, standing earnestly outside the operating room waiting.

Time ticked by, the lights in the operating room remained on, and there was no news from inside.

Outside the hospital, however, a large crowd had already gathered, all there for Xia Ningxi.

Upon learning that Xia Ningxi was in the operating room, the media came to wait outside. At first, there were only one or two people, and the Ling family didn't say anything. But who knew that more and more people gathered, almost filling the area outside the operating room. They stood there in a mess, which annoyed the Ling family members who were already in a bad mood.

Tian Chunxia said angrily, "What are they all doing gathered here?"

The bodyguard replied, "They must be here to see Dr. Xia."

Tian Chunxia said, "What kind of place is this? A group of people are making a racket here. Do the doctors need to work? Do the patients need to rest? They've blocked the operating room. How can there be such inconsiderate people? Kick them out."

Furious, Tian Chunxia showed no respect and ordered her bodyguards to kick out the group of people who planned to interview Xia Ningxi as soon as she left the operating room.

She wouldn't allow anyone to interfere with her son's surgery, much less let anyone affect Xia Ningxi. At this moment, Xia Ningxi's life was far more important than her son's. Only by protecting these doctors could her son be saved!

But the reporters didn't want to be kicked out like that; they were very angry.

"Why are you kicking us out?"

"We're here to interview Xia Ningxi. We have nothing to do with the Ling family. Are you even human to send so many bodyguards to block our way?"

"What's it to you?"

A group of people angrily questioned her, arguing that they were looking for Xia Ningxi, and had nothing to do with Tian Chunxia, ​​and that she had no right to ask someone to kick them out.

Tian Chunxia showed no mercy and angrily said, "My son is having surgery today, and Xia Ningxi is the chief surgeon. None of you are allowed to get close to her. Not only that, but from now on, I don't want to see any of you causing trouble for her. If you affect her mood and make her unhappy, causing anything to happen to my son, I'll make sure you all suffer the consequences!"
