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 961 You're Not Going to Have an Easy Time
Any form of address would be undesirable for Huo Nanxiao, and would sound ridiculous to outsiders.
Huo Nanxiao ignored Tang En's words and handed his fruit to Xingxing and Chuchu to eat.
Chu Chu blinked and remained silent.
Xingxing said, "Why didn't Daddy answer Uncle Don't?"
"There's no need," Huo Nanxiao said coldly.
Xingxing: "Is it because Daddy doesn't know how to explain it?"
Huo Nanxiao stuffed a piece of meat into Xingxing's mouth and said, "Eat yours, don't ask too many questions about adult matters."
"Daddy's feeling guilty," Xingxing snorted.
Don was very pleased and said to Xingxing, "You are very smart; you were able to tell that some people were feeling guilty."
Xingxing said, "It's written all over their faces, it's hard not to see it."
Tang En's gaze fell on Huo Nanxiao, and he said, "Even a child knows this, you can't possibly not know it, can you?"
"Since you love meddling in other people's business so much, you shouldn't be doing research. You should find another job." Huo Nanxiao's cold voice carried a hint of sarcasm.
The two were at loggerheads.
Tang En's intention was to make Huo Nanxiao feel ashamed and leave on his own.
But Huo Nanxiao didn't react at all, letting Tang En shout until Xia Ningxi got off work. He then neatly took the three children into his car, and Xia Ningxi could only leave in Huo Nanxiao's car.
On the way back, cars kept following them. Huo Nanxiao glanced at the rearview mirror and saw that there were cars following them. He knew without a doubt that they were reporters chasing after them.
Huo Nanxiao acted as if nothing had happened, drove back to Xia Ningxi's house, and then stayed there without leaving.
The reporters watched outside for a long time but couldn't see anyone, and they were very frustrated.
Why hasn't Huo Nanxiao come forward to explain after all this time?
They couldn't get into Xia Ningxi's house, so they could only interview Xia Luoluo.
Xia Luoluo was another person who had been waiting all day. She was also wondering why Huo Nanxiao hadn't said anything after so long. She kept an eye on the news and even sent messages to reporters. She discovered that Huo Nanxiao had hidden in Xia Ningxi's house, which made Xia Luoluo very annoyed.
She particularly disliked Xia Ningxi and Xia Ningxi's home, because most of the bodyguards there were arranged by Ling Xiao. Outsiders dared not do anything excessive out of respect for Ling Xiao, and the reporters in Lingcheng were also afraid of displeasing Ling Xiao, so they dared not do anything to Xia Ningxi.
Therefore, Xia Ningxi's home became Huo Nanxiao's most solid haven.
While chaos reigned outside, Huo Nanxiao remained oblivious to the world around him, ignoring the media's opinions, the Xia family's views, and Xia Luoluo's ambition to rise in status.
Xia Luoluo paced back and forth in her house, not receiving a call from Huo Nanxiao. Hearing a car horn outside, she assumed it was Huo Nanxiao coming to negotiate. Looking towards the source of the sound, she only saw Xia Wanwan getting out of the car, looking haggard.
"You're all alone?" Xia Luoluo was surprised.
Xia Wanwan said, "Who else could it be but me?"
"Where's Huo Nanxiao? Why didn't he come back with you? Where did he go?" Xia Luoluo pressed.
Xia Wanwan said, "I couldn't find him."
"Such a big thing happened and he didn't even contact you? Didn't you call him? Such an important matter can't just be left like this, right? He definitely needs to explain to you and give you an explanation," Xia Luoluo said.
Xia Wanwan: "What kind of explanation do you want? You've already schemed against him and climbed into his bed, what more explanation do you want?"
“Of course, Huo Nanxiao needs to give me an explanation,” Xia Luoluo replied.
Xia Wanwan sneered: "What can he give you? Stop dreaming, he can't give you anything."
Xia Luoluo said, "How do you know? This matter has already spread. Huo Nanxiao doesn't want things to look too bad between us, so he can only do as I say."
"Marry you? Don't dream about it. Huo Nanxiao will never marry you, nor will he ever give you any response. You're just humiliating yourself by doing all this," Xia Wanwan mocked.
Xia Luoluo mocked her: "If you can marry Huo Nanxiao, why can't I? I'm younger and prettier than you, and most importantly, I can have children. I can please men. What can you do? Your frail body can barely take care of yourself, let alone Huo Nanxiao. You can't even have children, so what can you give Huo Nanxiao?"
"You've gone mad," Xia Wanwan said angrily.
Xia Luoluo sneered, "I think you're the one who's gone mad. Don't you even look at yourself? Your face is all wrinkled, what's the difference between you and an old woman? Huo Nanxiao would never look at you. If you cooperate with me obediently and help me rise to the top, I'll make sure the child treats you well after you have Huo Nanxiao's child."
At this moment, Xia Luoluo had already adopted the posture of the master, her condescending tone filled with dissatisfaction and disdain for Xia Wanwan.
Clearly, she looked down on her older sister.
To her, Xia Wanwan was just a stepping stone.
However, without Xia Wanwan, it would have been very difficult for her to bring Xia Ningxi down from her high and mighty position as Mrs. Huo on her own.
Thanks to Xia Wanwan for charging ahead and drawing all the firepower, Huo Xiuyuan now hates Xia Wanwan the most, but doesn't hate Xia Luoluo as much.
Xia Luoluo knew that it wasn't a good thing for her to take the lead at this time, but she had no chance. If it weren't for the Han family wanting to take advantage of Huo Nanxiao and letting her get away with it, she wouldn't have been so lucky to climb into Huo Nanxiao's bed.
If she becomes pregnant and gives birth to a son or daughter for Huo Nanxiao, even if Huo Nanxiao doesn't acknowledge it now, she will still have a chance to inherit Huo Nanxiao's estate in the future.
Even if she gets hundreds of billions, Xia Luoluo will never have to work again in her life.
Xia Luoluo stared at Xia Wanwan's face and said, word by word, "You should find a way to contact Huo Nanxiao again, or you can accept an interview with reporters and tell them that Huo Nanxiao and I are mutually agreeing, so that no one will spread rumors."
"Ridiculous, he doesn't even look down on you." Xia Wanwan felt like she had heard the biggest joke in the world.
Xia Luoluo said, "Whether you look down on us or not is one thing, and whether you can get close to the Huo family is another. You are Huo Nanxiao's wife now, and only your words are the most truthful. If you stand up to protect me and Huo Nanxiao, there won't be too many unpleasant topics going on outside."
Xia Wanwan refused: "Impossible."
Xia Luoluo's eyes held a warning: "Don't push your luck. You are where you are today because of me. If I hadn't carefully planned for you all these years, would you have been able to marry him? If you continue to disobey, I will have to ask my father to teach you a lesson. Don't forget, you are living in the Xia family now. You had better do as I say, or you won't have a good life!"
