Chapter 914 We Don't Need You

Xingxing didn't dare let Huo Nanxiao take her brother and sister away alone, so she followed behind him, her big, round eyes full of vigilance.

Xia Jingcheng watched in disbelief as the three little ones were taken away by Huo Nanxiao.

"Why didn't I think of that?" Xia Jingcheng exclaimed.

Ling Xiao said, "If it were you, the child wouldn't go with you."

“That’s true.” Xia Jingcheng nodded.

Ling Xiao said, "Xia Ningxi's condition is relatively stable. I'll stay here tonight. You must be tired, go back and rest."

"No, there's no reason for the older brother to go home early. I want to stay here and watch over Ning Xi. In case of any emergency, I can stay and handle it."

Xia Jingcheng's attitude was very firm.

Ling Xiao didn't know what to say to him.

The two stayed outside the intensive care unit all night.

During this period, Xia Wenhe came to them more than once, intending to ask Huo Nanxiao to pay Xia Wanwan's medical expenses, but he never saw him.

Xia Wenhe learned from Ellie that Huo Nanxiao had already left with the three children, and he was furious: "How could he be so cold-blooded? Wanwan is still waiting for him to save her life, how could he just leave like that!"

Ellie was amused by his words and mocked him, "When did President Huo become a doctor? He even has the ability to save Xia Wanwan's life. Why did you kneel down and beg us in the first place? Why didn't you just let Huo Nanxiao take the scalpel and do it?"

Xia Wenhe: "What do you know? Xia Wanwan is Huo Nanxiao's wife, so Huo Nanxiao should pay for her treatment. Do you expect me, an elder, to pay for it?"

"Oh? I see. You've been embezzling for so many years, surely you have enough money in your pocket to cover medical expenses?" Ellie sneered.

Xia Wenhe glared at her: "Why would I tell this to an outsider like you?"

Xia Jingcheng: "Since you don't have money, then don't save them. Otherwise, you'll run out of your meager savings and then have to find ways to harm others."

"I'm your father, how dare you talk to me like that!" Xia Wenhe was so angry that he jumped up and down.

Xia Jingcheng: "Sorry, we're not familiar with each other."

"You! You ungrateful wretch!" Xia Wenhe cursed.

Xia Jingcheng listened without getting angry, looking at him as if he were an idiot, and said coldly, "Instead of throwing a tantrum here, you should go see if your shameless mother and daughter are dead."

"You bastard, you're not allowed to curse them!" Xia Wenhe's face was almost contorted in pain.

Xia Jingcheng gave him a dismissive look, not wanting to waste any more words with him.

Xia Wenhe left in a huff.

That night, almost no one slept.

Although the three children had settled into the hotel, they couldn't sleep. They tossed and turned in bed, all wanting to go to the hospital to stay with Xia Ningxi.

Huo Nanxiao suppressed this idea, and they could only sit in the hotel, staring blankly at the ceiling without saying a word, their eyes wide open.

"Go to sleep!" Huo Nanxiao urged.

The three little ones acted as if they hadn't heard a thing.

Huo Yuan rolled over, his big, pitiful eyes looking at Huo Nanxiao: "Daddy, has Mommy woken up yet? Shall we go see Mommy now?"

“It’s two in the morning, she must be resting, don’t disturb her,” Huo Nanxiao said.

Huo Yuan's face fell: "Daddy is bad, Daddy is no good."

"Be good, listen to me, I'll take you to see Mommy when it's light." Huo Nanxiao said very seriously.

Huo Yuan: "I don't want to sleep."

Xingxing sat up abruptly: "Let's go out now."

Chu Chu's eyes lit up: "Okay, okay, let's go now!"

"You are not allowed to go anywhere." Huo Nanxiao's cold voice carried absolute authority.

The three little ones, who had just gotten out of bed, were terrified by Huo Nanxiao's fierce appearance.

Huo Yuan, who was a little timid, burst into tears. When he first saw his brother cry, he also started to cry. Xingxing tried to hold back his tears, but when his brother and sister cried, his tears started to fall too. Xingxing didn't know why.

The triplets' wailing almost shattered Huo Nanxiao's eardrums. He wearily scolded, "Enough, stop crying!"

The little ones wouldn't listen, crying louder and louder than the next, their cries almost shattering Huo Nanxiao's eardrums. He rubbed his temples, his head aching.

The patrolling security personnel heard the unusual crying and came to knock on the door. They thought someone was beating their child in the middle of the night, but when they saw the little ones sitting on the bed healthy and well, they realized they were overthinking it.

After the security guard left, the three little ones started wailing again, and Huo Nanxiao had no choice but to make a video call to Xia Jingcheng.

"Why aren't you asleep yet?" Xia Jingcheng asked angrily.

Huo Yuan asked worriedly, "Uncle, is Mommy awake?"

Xia Jingcheng said, "She's still under anesthesia and won't wake up until noon tomorrow. You all can sleep peacefully and don't cry or make a fuss, understand?"

A hint of disappointment flashed across Huo Yuan's face, and he pouted and remained silent.

"Xingxing, put Ayuan and his sister to sleep." Xia Jingcheng chose to entrust this important task to him.

Xingxing reluctantly agreed, "Okay, we'll go find Mommy after we wake up. Uncle, you have to take good care of Mommy, okay? We'll come to the hospital tomorrow to relieve you."

"Okay." Xia Jingcheng was pleased.

After hanging up the phone, the three little ones were finally willing to go to sleep peacefully.

The three of them huddled together, their small bodies nestled close together, as if only in this way could they feel safe with each other.

Huo Nanxiao felt uneasy. He didn't know how to comfort the three children or how to make them feel more at ease. He could only stay by their side all night until dawn.

In the morning, the children quickly washed up and started clamoring to go out, so Huo Nanxiao took them downstairs.

Xia Ningxi hadn't come out of the intensive care unit yet, and Brian wouldn't let anyone into the ward to visit her; the children could only watch from outside the window.

Huo Nanxiao asked, "When will she wake up?"

"It's not certain yet," Brian said, without giving a definitive answer.

Xingxing didn't understand: "Uncle said last night that Mommy would wake up at noon."

Brian smiled wryly: "Her injury is quite serious this time, and it will probably take a while. Please be patient and wait. With us here, she will be fine."

“Okay, we believe you.” Xingxing nodded emphatically.

The other two little ones didn't make a fuss either.

After receiving a positive answer, Huo Nanxiao felt a little better, and his tightly furrowed brows finally relaxed.

Thinking about how Brian had taken over Xia Wanwan's surgery yesterday, Huo Nanxiao pondered for a moment before deciding to ask, "How is Wanwan doing?"

"Mr. Huo didn't go to see it?" Brian was surprised.

Huo Nanxiao: "No."

"That's strange. Isn't that President Huo's wife? It's been over ten hours, and you haven't even gone to see Xia Wanwan. If she finds out, she'll definitely be angry with you," Brian said sarcastically.

Huo Yuan's gaze towards Huo Nanxiao changed.

Xingxing mocked without any politeness: "Daddy, if you care so much about Xia Wanwan, why don't you go and keep her company now? We don't need you here, so as not to waste your time."

Huo Nanxiao was speechless. Fine, he didn't deserve to mention Xia Wanwan's name in front of the children, otherwise these three little ones would attack him.
