Chapter 826 Dog man and woman

Xia Wanwan never expected that her first attempt to woo Huo Nanxiao would be so ruthlessly rejected. Not only that, Huo Nanxiao also directly ordered Ye Su to take her away.

She wasn't drunk at all; she was just increasingly certain that Huo Nanxiao had no feelings for her, which made Xia Wanwan very uncomfortable.

She was once the most famous socialite in the capital city. She was top-notch in both figure and appearance, and had a good education. Even among the most famous socialites, she had an exceptional temperament. Huo Nanxiao was very attracted to her back then.

Xia Wanwan didn't understand why things had suddenly turned out this way. She thought that even if Huo Nanxiao liked Xia Ningxi, his feelings for her still existed. But now Xia Wanwan realized that it was all just her own conjecture.

He married her simply to give her a status.

That's ridiculous.

Xia Wanwan didn't sleep all night.

The same applies to Huo Nanxiao.

As for Xia Ningxi, she had no idea that the two of them were in Lingcheng. After sleeping soundly until dawn, Xia Ningxi sent her child to school and immediately went to the laboratory. After finishing her own work, she went to give Lin Jiangbei a physical examination.

Seeing her looking radiant and full of energy, Lin Jiangbei smiled and said, "I thought you weren't coming to the hospital today."

"Why do you think that?" Xia Ningxi asked, puzzled.

Lin Jiangbei: "Our story was trending on social media yesterday, which will have some impact on you."

“Your brother has already taken care of things,” Xia Ningxi replied.

Lin Jiangbei breathed a sigh of relief: "That's great."

"Why are you thinking so much?" Xia Ningxi felt that Lin Jiangbei was a bit too busy and had nothing better to do.

Lin Jiangbei: "I was just worried about you."

“Thank you, but you really don’t need to,” Xia Ningxi replied.

Lin Jiangbei: "I heard you're living in my older brother's house. Have you two met before? My older brother has never lent his house to anyone before. You're the first."

"My child needs to go to school. Is it strange that your Ling family begged me to come to Lingcheng to show your appreciation?" Xia Ningxi retorted.

Lin Jiangbei was taken aback, then nodded: "That's right, you're right."

"Is your brain fully recovered? Why are you thinking about so much nonsense? Go get some rest." Xia Ningxi decisively shut Lin Jiangbei up.

In the morning, she made Lin Jiangbei a nutritious breakfast. He wasn't picky and ate a little bit of everything, and he was in a good mood.

Just as she was finishing her meal, she received a phone call. The caller said to Xia Ningxi, "My older brother and Sister Ling Shuang are coming to visit me later. Oh, and there are two other guests, Huo Nanxiao and Xia Wanwan. Do you think we should avoid any appearance of impropriety?"

"Them? Why are they in Lingcheng?" Xia Ningxi asked, puzzled.

Lin Jiangbei said, "They're probably here for an inspection. Our two families are working together. My sister went to the capital for an inspection, so it's normal for Huo Nanxiao to come to Lingcheng as well. Don't be nervous. They haven't revealed that you've returned to China."

"Okay, I'll go back to the lab first. I'll have a colleague cover for me. If you feel unwell anywhere, let me know immediately, okay?" Xia Ningxi reminded her.

Lin Jiangbei nodded: "I will, you can go first."

Xia Ningxi turned to leave, but before she even stepped out of the hospital gate, she saw a black minivan appear at the hospital entrance.

Ling Shuang and her secretary waited outside the door. The people who got out of the car were none other than Huo Nanxiao and Xia Wanwan.

Xia Ningxi immediately hid, but accidentally bumped into a nurse walking behind her. She quickly apologized.

Huo Nanxiao, who had just gotten out of the car, seemed to hear a familiar voice. His gaze subconsciously turned in the direction of Xia Ningxi, only to see a female nurse with her head down, seemingly saying something. But it was not Xia Ningxi.

Huo Nanxiao withdrew his gaze, turned around and helped Xia Wanwan out of the car.

"Mr. Huo, Ms. Xia, hello." Ling Shuang greeted them with a smile.

"Where does Lin Jiangbei live?" Huo Nanxiao asked.

Ling Shuang: "Fifth floor, I'll take you there."

"Okay." Huo Nanxiao helped Xia Wanwan into the elevator.

He was followed by seven or eight bodyguards, each carrying a lot of things, all of which were supplements for Lin Jiangbei.

When Lin Jiangbei saw Huo Nanxiao appear with Xia Wanwan, his eyes flickered involuntarily for a few seconds. He smiled and said, "Hello, Mr. Huo, and who is this?"

"Xia Wanwan, I am Mr. Huo's wife." Xia Wanwan took the initiative to introduce herself.

Lin Jiangbei raised an eyebrow: "Mrs. Huo? No wonder you look familiar. But I don't remember you looking like this before. Did you have surgery while I was in the hospital for the past few months? You've changed so much that I don't recognize you anymore."

He looked completely innocent.

Ling Shuang suppressed a laugh, secretly glancing at Xia Wanwan's unpleasant expression. She found it amusing; her younger brother's words were truly venomous, and Xia Wanwan must be feeling quite upset.

"Jiangbei, Miss Wanwan has never had plastic surgery. Don't talk nonsense," she whispered a reminder.

Lin Jiangbei: "Then I must have misremembered. Mrs. Huo, please don't hold it against me."

"It's alright." Xia Wanwan acted very generously and said softly, "We brought some tonics, all of which you can use. Please don't find them too bad."

Lin Jiangbei: "The things the Huo family sent are naturally all of high quality, how could I possibly find them undesirable? Please sit down, I don't have much to offer you."

Xia Wanwan was not in good health to begin with, so she naturally found a seat and sat down.

While they were chatting, doctors and nurses would come to check on Lin Jiangbei from time to time, and someone would change his dressings.

Huo Nanxiao looked carefully, and almost everyone was an unfamiliar face.

But Huo Nanxiao knew that Xia Ningxi had already returned to China.

"Who is your attending physician?" Huo Nanxiao asked.

Lin Jiangbei: "It was Tang En and Xia Ningxi before, but they handed me over to the doctors in Lingcheng a couple of days ago. My physical condition is much better than before, and the doctors here are capable of treating me, so Xia Ningxi and Tang En left after handing me over to other people."

"Gone?" Huo Nanxiao's eyes narrowed.

"Yes, she left a long time ago. Doesn't President Huo know about this? Oh right, I almost forgot, you two divorced a long time ago, so Dr. Xia wouldn't tell you about her affairs." Lin Jiangbei said sarcastically.

Huo Nanxiao didn't speak, and his expression was not good.

Xia Wanwan noticed his strange change and said softly, "Wanwan is indeed a very outstanding person. She must have her own reasons for choosing to stay abroad."

“Yes, Xia Ningxi is doing very well abroad, unlike in China, where there’s a bunch of rabble causing her trouble.” Lin Jiangbei strongly agreed.

Xia Wanwan didn't like hearing this at all.

A mob looking for trouble with Xia Ningxi?

Are you talking about their family?

Lin Jiangbei speaks in a rather unpleasant way.

After sensing the other party's malice, Xia Wanwan decisively shut her mouth. She knew better than anyone that Lin Jiangbei had a problem with her.

As for Huo Nanxiao, he didn't seem to have any intention of protecting her.

At this moment, Xia Wanwan felt like she couldn't breathe.

"Mr. Huo, are you here to see someone for medical treatment, or to treat yourself?" Lin Jiangbei added casually.

Huo Nanxiao: "I heard that the dean here has a good relationship with the Ling family?"

“Yes, the dean is my uncle,” Ling Shuang replied.

Huo Nanxiao: "Could you arrange for an expert to take a look at Wanwan?"

“Okay.” Ling Shuang readily agreed.

Lin Jiangbei raised an eyebrow at Xia Wanwan and asked Ling Shuang, "Sister Shuang, does Second Uncle have time to see her? He's so busy on weekdays, he doesn't see just anyone."

"Don't speak," Ling Shuang reminded him.

Lin Jiangbei looked at the adulterous couple in front of him and remained silent.
