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 906 You Only Deserve to Live with Xia Wanwan
More and more people gathered around, and Li Yancheng, feeling ashamed, stormed off.
Tang En smiled and reminded him, "Young Master Li, don't forget to pay the bill."
Li Yancheng was even angrier.
He kept his word and paid for all the expenses today.
Xia Ningxi could tell from his departing figure that he was furious. She smiled and apologized to Ling Xiao, "I'm sorry for causing you so much trouble today."
"It's alright, it's just dealing with one or two suitors, it's not a big deal," Ling Xiao replied politely.
Xia Ningxi noticed that he was holding a hospital bag and asked, "Did something happen in Jiangbei?"
Ling Xiao's expression was grave: "The medical report came out today; he has seven or eight more tumors growing on the back of his head."
"Okay, I understand." Xia Ningxi took the examination report, glanced at it, and handed it to Tang En and the others.
Everyone had a heated discussion about Lin Jiangbei's situation, and finally went to the laboratory to simulate various possible complications after surgery.
They were extremely cautious about Lin Jiangbei, not daring to let the slightest accident happen.
This resulted in Xia Ningxi not going home all night, with the entire team staying at the hospital to take care of him.
Li Yancheng was furious when he learned that Xia Ningxi and Ling Xiao had not come out of the hospital since they returned.
Yao Qing made him tea, but he didn't even glance at it.
"Young Master Li, you've been angry all day." Yao Qing sighed helplessly.
Li Yancheng asked, "What gives Ling Xiao the right?"
Yao Qing: "They give Xia Ningxi 50 million yuan in research and development funds every month."
"Fifty million is nothing, it's not like I don't have it." Li Yancheng was still angry.
Yao Qing: "I've found out that they got married because Xia Ningxi wanted to register Xia Xingxing and Xia Chuchu's household registrations. They had no feelings for each other at all."
Li Yancheng: "Look at how they're acting today, going back and forth like they have no feelings at all."
Yao Qing: "They're in the same boat, it's normal for them to be tied together. But Young Master Li, you shouldn't have brought up Xia Ningxi's bigamy in front of so many people. Her face turned green at the time."
Li Yancheng: "Am I not telling the truth?"
“That’s true, but so many people are watching. Everyone thinks she’s two-timing, which isn’t good for her reputation,” Yao Qing reminded her.
Li Yancheng sneered: "Her reputation was already bad, so what if she was two-timing? She could have been three-timing, but she didn't. How can anyone criticize her?"
Yao Qing was shocked by these words and didn't know what to say for a moment.
He felt that Li Yancheng's values had become distorted and he couldn't understand what he was saying at all.
Li Yancheng didn't take Yao Qing's words to heart. He was in a bad mood, so naturally he wouldn't let Huo Nanxiao be in a good mood either.
"Go and find out what Huo Nanxiao has been up to lately," Li Yancheng said.
Yao Qing: "He's been at the branch office. He should be having dinner with someone tonight. Helian Jue has come to Lingcheng, and Huo Nanxiao is entertaining him tonight."
"Check the address, I need to go there tonight," Li Yancheng instructed.
Yao Qing sighed helplessly. Their young master Li's motto was: If I'm not doing well, nobody else will either.
Half an hour later, Li Yancheng pushed open the door to the bar's private room.
At that moment, Huo Nanxiao and several friends were discussing work when they heard the door open and all turned to look at them.
Ji Feibai smiled and said, "Young Master Li, it's been a long time."
"Long time no see." Li Yancheng was polite to Ji Feibai, but he didn't give Huo Nanxiao a friendly look at all: "Heh, Mr. Huo is really leisurely. His wife and children have run off with someone else, but he can still sit still. No wonder he is a big businessman."
Upon hearing this, everyone in the private room fell silent, and a moment of awkwardness ensued.
Huo Nanxiao looked at him coldly: "Are you upset?"
"Yeah, I just got back from Ling Xiao's place. I heard they've been married for four years. But when I do the math, the timing doesn't make sense. Didn't you just get divorced from Xia Ningxi?" Li Yancheng asked sarcastically.
Huo Nanxiao was displeased and did not reply to him.
Li Yancheng sneered, "It seems Xia Ningxi doesn't take you seriously at all. I thought she was so devoted to you when she married you, but now it seems you're nothing."
"Xia Ningxi is quite something. She married into the most powerful family in the capital, yet she still looks down on you, the crown prince, and marries another man. You, the crown prince, are truly shameful."
He deliberately said the most offensive things, and it got increasingly outrageous.
Huo Nanxiao, who was already in a bad mood, became even worse. He narrowed his eyes dangerously and said, word by word, "You must have been provoked by Xia Ningxi. Well, someone as outstanding as her would naturally not be interested in you."
"Ha, what are you so smug about? Do you think she even looks at you?" Li Yancheng retorted.
Huo Nanxiao said, "I divorced her peacefully, without any conflict. She has long since lost her usefulness to you. You don't need to pretend to be deeply in love with her. She's not stupid; she can't be used by you."
They are both intelligent people and childhood friends who grew up together.
Although some unpleasant things happened that severed their relationship, it doesn't stop them from knowing each other best.
Li Yancheng knew that Huo Nanxiao still cared about Xia Ningxi, so he deliberately poked at his sore spot.
Huo Nanxiao also knew that Li Yancheng had overstepped his bounds while doing these things. Perhaps Li Yancheng initially approached Xia Ningxi for revenge, but now Li Yancheng's feelings for Xia Ningxi were clearly different.
Li Yancheng is clearly already caught up in it.
But why did he get caught up in it?
Huo Nanxiao was also puzzled. He said, "If I were you, I would stay away from Xia Ningxi."
"Heh, I won't listen." Li Yancheng snorted coldly.
Huo Nanxiao: "Haven't you realized that you're already serious?"
With a single sentence, Li Yancheng was stumped.
The way people looked at him was now much more complicated.
Li Yancheng suppressed his fear and mocked Huo Nanxiao with feigned ease: "You have a pretty good temper. You can still be so calm even after being cheated on. It seems that you don't care at all about Ling Xiao and Xia Ningxi's marriage. I suppose you will also carefully present a wedding gift to them?"
A layer of ice formed in Huo Nanxiao's eyes, and he did not answer.
The young men who were watching the scene were quite surprised: "What did you say? They're getting married?"
Li Yancheng scoffed, "Haven't you all heard? Ling Xiao is going to hold an epic wedding for Xia Ningxi in Lingcheng. He might invite you all to attend."
Ji Feibai was a little agitated: "Impossible, I heard that they have no feelings for each other. When Xia Ningxi got her marriage certificate with Ling Xiao, it was only to register the child's household registration."
Li Yancheng: "How can two people get married without love? Do you really think Ling Xiao is a fool? He's a rich and powerful young master. He has money and power. He doesn't need to find a divorced woman if he doesn't have feelings for her."
Ji Feibai: "That makes sense. These two probably have feelings for each other."
"It's more than just having feelings for each other. She couldn't wait to get a marriage certificate with someone else even before divorcing Huo Nanxiao. She must be in love to the core," Li Yancheng added sourly.
Huo Nanxiao felt very uncomfortable hearing this, and he remained silent.
Looking at Huo Nanxiao's indifferent expression, the others had no idea what he was thinking.
Everyone knew that Li Yancheng had only come to Huo Nanxiao to seek validation after being turned away by Xia Ningxi, but no one dared to laugh at Li Yancheng, because Xia Ningxi's deep relationship with Ling Xiao also threatened Huo Nanxiao.
Li Yancheng is just an outsider; at most, he just can't win Xia Ningxi's heart.
But Huo Nanxiao is different. The child is already registered under Li Yancheng's name. Who knows, in the end the child might not even recognize his own father.
None of Huo Nanxiao's friends dared to say a word, much less offer any advice at this time.
Huo Nanxiao casually took a sip of his drink and slowly asked, "Have you said enough?"
"Not yet," Li Yancheng replied.
Huo Nanxiao: "She doesn't even look at you. Give up on her."
"So, you've taken a fancy to me?" Li Yancheng retorted.
Huo Nanxiao: "At least the child is my own."
"She's already married to someone else, and she'll have someone else's child sooner or later. What are you so smug about?" Li Yancheng mocked.
Huo Nanxiao: "As long as it's not a child born to you, anything is fine."
Li Yancheng was speechless after being choked by this sentence. After a long while, he finally managed to squeeze out a sentence: "So what if she was born to you? In the end, she will still have to take someone else's surname and call someone else 'Dad'. You are only fit to live with someone like Xia Wanwan who is not worthy of being on the same level."
No one knows what words angered Huo Nanxiao, but the wine glass in his hand flew directly at Li Yancheng.
