Chapter 931 Why Didn't He Protect You Back Then?

Xia Ningxi was puzzled.

Fu Xiyu said, "Not everyone is Huo Xiuyuan."

Among all the wealthy families in the capital, the Huo family is the best. Huo Xiuyuan doesn't care about social status or the background of others; he only values ​​character.

That's why Xia Ningxi was fortunate enough to marry into the Huo family.

But the Fu family is different.

Even if Fu Xiyu has become self-reliant, as long as his partner does not meet the Fu family's requirements for marriage, they can make that girl disappear completely.

Fu Xiyu originally didn't want to tell Xia Ningxi about these things, but now Xia Wanwan is too sick and in a very bad mood. If this continues, Fu Xiyu doesn't even know how long Xia Wanwan can hold on.

He couldn't bear to watch Xia Wanwan die, nor could he bear to see her trapped in a loveless marriage. He hoped that Xia Wanwan could be well and be with the person she loved.

But he didn't know who to say these things to.

Fu Xiyu despises Xia Ningxi. If Xia Ningxi hadn't married Huo Nanxiao and hadn't had a child with him, perhaps things wouldn't have turned out this way.

However, Xia Ningxi is also a victim, and it seems that no one is at fault in this matter.

The two parted on bad terms.

Fu Xiyu was a guest, so it wasn't appropriate for him to do anything too outrageous in Xia Ningxi's home.

He had said so much to Xia Ningxi, but Huo Nanxiao, who was in the distance, didn't seem to care at all. He was busy playing with the three children, which was enough to show Huo Nanxiao's attitude towards the matter.

As a childhood friend, Fu Xiyu knows everything.

He understood even more clearly what Huo Nanxiao's disregard and indifference meant.

After Fu Xiyu and Xia Ningxi finished their conversation, Huo Nanxiao finally turned his attention to them. He stepped forward and asked Fu Xiyu, "When are you planning to leave?"

"I'll wait for you," Fu Xiyu replied.

Huo Nanxiao: "I'll be staying here tonight."

"You can't be unaware of my real purpose in coming to see you, can you?" Fu Xiyu retorted.

Huo Nanxiao said, "There will be someone to take care of you every night, so nothing will happen."

“What she needs is your company,” Fu Xiyu replied.

Huo Nanxiao looked at him very seriously, "The Xia family will take good care of her, and I can't stay by her side forever."

“You wouldn’t have this attitude if it were anyone else,” Fu Xiyu said angrily.

Huo Nanxiao did not deny it.

Fu Xiyu was angry for a while, but finally couldn't help but speak up: "I know you are dissatisfied and I know you have opinions about Wanwan, but none of this is something that a weak patient like Wanwan can do."

“I didn’t hold a grudge against Wanwan, nor did I target anyone else. Isn’t that enough?” Huo Nanxiao questioned.

Fu Xiyu: "But you've neglected her."

Huo Nanxiao concealed the cold glint in his eyes: "I've given the Huo family quite a lot over the years, she should be content."

"What are you saying?" Fu Xiyu thought she had misheard and looked at Huo Nanxiao in disbelief, questioning him word by word: "Wanwan and you grew up together, shouldn't you help each other? Even if it turns out that Wanwan wasn't the one who saved you back then, you shouldn't treat her so coldly."

Huo Nanxiao: "Then tell me, what should I do? Abandon the children and go back to take care of her?"

Fu Xiyu: "These children have plenty of people to take care of them. They have mothers, relatives, and a bunch of people who want to please them. But Wanwan is different. She only has you left. Now, you are the only person she can rely on."

Huo Nanxiao's gaze was deep: "If you knew who saved me, you wouldn't say such a thing."

"Does it matter?" Fu Xiyu said angrily, "Wanwan loved you so much back then, and you promised to marry her. Whether she saved you or not is completely unimportant."

Huo Nanxiao chuckled lightly: "You're right. I did make some promises back then, and I'm fulfilling them now. That's all."

That's all he could give Xia Wanwan; everything else was up to her own fate.

Huo Nanxiao's attitude toward this matter was very firm, and he did not budge no matter what Fu Xiyu said.

This reminded Fu Xiyu of what Xia Ningxi had said, and he even considered picking Xia Wanwan up.

Fu Xiyu did not tell Huo Nanxiao about this idea.

Perhaps because the two had argued, Huo Nanxiao was not entirely at ease with Xia Wanwan, and he left that night under some pretext.

Xia Ningxi guessed that Huo Nanxiao was going to see Xia Wanwan, so she didn't ask any further questions.

However, what she didn't expect was that the day after Huo Nanxiao left, Yunting Group issued an announcement that Huo Nanxiao had gifted a portion of the company's shares to Xia Wanwan, which caused a huge sensation.

Xia Ningxi learned about this from Xia Jingcheng. Xia Jingcheng was furious and immediately cursed, "Does Huo Nanxiao have any conscience? You've been married to him for so many years, and he hasn't given you any shares. Xia Wanwan has only been married to him for a few months!"

"He was willing to give up five percent of the shares after only a few months. Do you know what that means? Many businessmen might not earn that much money even if they work their whole lives. Huo Nanxiao is so generous. That was your marital property. Why should he do that?!"

"That bastard! He usually wins people over with small favors, buying a few toys to please the kids, but when it comes to Xia Wanwan, he's all about giving away company shares. If he likes Xia Wanwan so much, why is he even coming to you guys? He's such a jerk!"

He was furious, his heart burning with rage.

The three children in the family were too scared to make a sound because of Xia Jingcheng's anger, and silently sat aside, winking at Xia Ningxi.

Xia Ningxi sighed helplessly and said softly, "Brother, don't be angry. It's not a big deal."

"Isn't this a big deal?" Xia Jingcheng said excitedly.

Xia Ningxi said, "It's just a small share. Xia Wanwan is currently recovering from her injuries. If Huo Nanxiao doesn't give her some small favors, her future will be very difficult."

Xia Jingcheng was furious: "Did we cause this? Her mother just hit you with her car, how long has it been? Huo Nanxiao not only refuses to divorce Xia Wanwan, but he even gave her shares. Isn't this a slap in our face?"

Xia Ningxi said helplessly, "That's Huo Nanxiao's company. We can't control what decisions he makes."

"I can't swallow this insult," Xia Jingcheng said.

Suddenly, Xingxing raised her hand and said, "Um, there's something I want to tell you."

"What is it?" Xia Jingcheng pressed.

Xingxing: "I just checked. Daddy didn't transfer the shares of the head office to Xia Wanwan. Instead, he transferred the shares of one of the small companies under his name to Xia Wanwan. I heard that this company has a business relationship with the Xia family. It will be easier for the two sides to communicate after Xia Wanwan becomes a shareholder."

Xia Jingcheng breathed a sigh of relief, but even so, he was still dissatisfied: "He's so protective of Xia Wanwan, but why didn't he protect Ning Xi like this back then?"
