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 760 Do you want her to die?
Xia Ningxi found her ridiculous, but then she thought about it again and realized that this family had always been like this.
No matter what happens, they never reflect on themselves; instead, they believe it's all someone else's fault.
When Xia Wanwan's lie was exposed, they assumed it was Xia Ningxi's malicious retaliation.
But if Xia Wanwan hadn't done such a thing, there would be no way for anyone to retaliate against her, right?
“If you have a clear conscience, you have nothing to fear. This is all your retribution, and you can’t blame anyone else,” Xia Ningxi said.
Zhou Fenglin was so angry that he trembled all over.
Xia Wenhe was also furious with Xia Ningxi, "Do you have any conscience? Wanwan is your sister, how could you be so vicious? You've already divorced Huo Nanxiao, why are you still forcing her to die? If you didn't want Wanwan to marry into the Huo family, you could have brought it up from the beginning, instead of finding an outsider to ruin her reputation in front of so many people. How could you do something so heartless..."
"Heh, President Xia, you're overthinking it. Even without Ning Xi, Xia Wanwan would never have entered the Huo family. We look down on this daughter-in-law. So what if she holds a wedding with Huo Nanxiao today? As long as I don't acknowledge her, she will always be Huo Nanxiao's mistress. You want to climb the social ladder? No way!" Huo Xiuyuan said abruptly.
Xia Wenhe choked, unable to catch his breath, and was speechless for a moment after being rebuked by Xia Wenhe.
Zhou Fenglin didn't dare to say anything, afraid that Huo Xiuyuan would embarrass them in public. After all, Huo Xiuyuan hadn't held back when he dealt with them last time. Fortunately, that time it was at home, but this time it was outside with so many guests. They didn't want to suffer Huo Xiuyuan's wrath again.
The ambulance arrived late, and the family hurriedly put the unconscious Xia Wanwan into the ambulance. In the end, they left with the ambulance, feeling dejected. No one dared to stay and face the current situation.
After the Xia family left, the wedding banquet became much quieter. Everyone turned their attention away and politely greeted Huo Xiuyuan.
Huo Xiuyuan had no time to pay attention to outsiders; his gaze fell on Xia Ningxi: "Ningxi, were you bullied today? They didn't bully you, did they?"
"Thank you for your concern, Dad. I'm fine." Xia Ningxi shook her head.
Huo Xiuyuan breathed a sigh of relief, then turned around and glared at Huo Nanxiao: "You come with me."
Huo Nanxiao remained silent.
Huo Xiuyuan ignored him and added to Xia Ningxi and Li Yancheng, "You two come here too."
He suppressed his anger and walked upstairs to the private room.
After the door closed, Huo Xiuyuan asked Li Yancheng directly, "You must have put a lot of thought into making yourself look like this today, right?"
“Nan Xiao and I grew up together, so it’s only right that I prepare some surprises for him,” Li Yancheng said, neither humble nor arrogant.
Huo Xiuyuan frowned and said, "You're really bold. Aren't you afraid I'll blame you?"
"Uncle Huo should thank me. If I hadn't revealed the truth, who knows how long you would have been fooled by the Xia family." Li Yancheng didn't think he had done anything wrong.
Huo Xiuyuan said, "You know better than anyone that your sister's death has nothing to do with Nan Xiao."
A cold glint flashed in Li Yancheng's eyes. He chuckled, "Yes, it really has nothing to do with him. I just want to see if Huo Nanxiao would also want Xia Wanwan dead if faced with the same situation."
Huo Xiuyuan: "Leave the item here. I will send someone to verify its authenticity. The situation you wanted has been achieved, so there is no need for you to stay here any longer. Get out."
“I can leave, but Xia Ningxi must come with me.” Li Yancheng had no intention of leaving alone.
Huo Xiuyuan said, "She is still Huo family's daughter-in-law. You can't take her away. Besides, she has to come back to Huo family with me to take care of some children. She won't have time to deal with you."
“But I remember that Xia Ningxi and the other children have already moved out of the Huo family’s house,” Li Yancheng said.
Huo Xiuyuan replied, "I've already brought the child back to the Huo family today, so you don't need to worry about it. After all these years of scheming, you must still have a backup plan, right? If you go out now, you can still instruct your subordinates to write some short articles to smear Huo Nanxiao. If you wait too long, you won't be able to get this front-page headline."
"Uncle Huo really doesn't care about his son's life or death at all. This is the first time I've ever seen someone let the enemy smear their own son." Li Yancheng smiled.
Huo Xiuyuan: "You can write whatever you want, but I have only one request: don't involve Ning Xi and the children, especially the children. They are too young to see such offensive news."
"Understood." Li Yancheng nodded, and before leaving, he came to Xia Ningxi's side and whispered, "I will stay outside. You can call me anytime if you need anything. I'm not leaving."
"Thank you." Xia Ningxi was very grateful.
Li Yancheng then left.
Only Huo Xiuyuan, Huo Nanxiao, and Xia Ningxi remained in the private room.
The three of them fell silent for no apparent reason, especially Huo Nanxiao, who hadn't said a word since he entered the room. It was unclear whether he was worried about Xia Wanwan or simply too afraid to face Xia Ningxi.
Huo Xiuyuan asked Huo Nanxiao, "What do you plan to do with Xia Wanwan?"
"Let's wait until she wakes up before we talk about it," Huo Nanxiao replied.
Huo Xiuyuan: "Go downstairs now and announce the cancellation of the wedding and sever ties with Xia Wanwan. You still have a way to turn back. We're not unreasonable people. This is all Xia Wanwan's fault. Since she no longer owes you a life-saving favor, she naturally has no right to have anything to do with you anymore."
You can see that Li Yancheng deliberately embarrassed you in this situation. He's retaliating against you. If you cancel the engagement, he can't do anything to you, but if you protect Xia Wanwan, you'll lose a lot. If I were you, I would sever all ties with Xia Wanwan in front of everyone.
“I know you mean well, but if I do this, it’s the same as sending Wanwan to her death,” Huo Nanxiao replied.
Huo Xiuyuan was furious: "Are you going to abandon your child for a liar?"
"Dad, I know what I'm doing. I will handle everything properly. Just give me some time." Huo Nanxiao's voice was very firm.
Huo Xiuyuan sneered: "How do you plan to resolve this? Will you bear everything alone? Or will you grit your teeth and accept a liar's wrath, even if it means your family is destroyed? Or will you make others pay the price for you? You only care about whether Xia Wanwan will be hurt, but have you ever considered that your actions might also hurt others?"
“I know.” Huo Nanxiao knew better than anyone else.
Besides Xia Wanwan, there is also Xia Ningxi.
Huo Nanxiao knew all about the many grievances she had suffered over the years.
But Xia Wanwan is now a woman, and she can't handle too much stimulation; she really would die. Xia Ningxi, on the other hand, is not like that.
Huo Nanxiao's attitude made Xia Ningxi realize her place in his heart. She smiled bitterly and said to Huo Xiuyuan, "Dad, let Huo Nanxiao handle it himself. You can't stop him from doing what he wants. Let him be with the woman he loves."
