Chapter 983 He Won't Have My Child

Chu Chu was very puzzled. She hadn't taken Xia Wanwan's food, so why was she crying?

"Why are you crying? Do you want to eat shrimp too?" Chu Chu asked curiously.

Xia Wanwan quickly wiped away her tears and said, "It's nothing, my eyes just feel uncomfortable."

She pretended to be fine, rubbed her eyes, and said, "Take me back to the Xia family. After all, it's my home, and I'm always more comfortable living in my own home. Besides, there have been people causing trouble for Luo Luo lately. If I leave now, people will say that we're not on good terms, which might even affect the Xia and Huo families."

"Have you decided to have Lu Qi drive you?" Huo Nanxiao replied.

Xia Wanwan was very upset. She actually hoped that Huo Nanxiao could persuade her to stay, since Xia Ningxi would be leaving in a couple of days.

Lanyuan is so big, with plenty of guest rooms, one more person won't make a difference.

But she couldn't bring herself to say such a thing in front of Xia Ningxi.

After breakfast, Huo Nanxiao went to the company.

Xia Wanwan sat quietly in Lanyuan, waiting for Lu Qi to pick her up.

Xia Ningxi was preparing to go out with her three children.

"Where are you going?" Xia Wanwan asked curiously.

Xia Ningxi said, "Amusement park."

"Isn't there an amusement park on the back hill?" Xia Wanwan asked, puzzled.

Chu Chu said, "The playground at home is different from the playground outside. There are lots and lots of children at the playground outside, but there are only the three of us at home, so we want to go to the playground outside to play."

"That's great." Xia Wanwan said enviously.

Chu Chu said, "If you want to play, you can ask your mom to take you."

Xia Wanwan thought of Zhou Fenglin who had been arrested, and her haggard face turned pale. "You guys go have fun, I'm not interested."

"Okay." Chu Chu picked up her little schoolbag, turned around and left.

Huo Nanxiao's garage has many new cars. Xia Ningxi randomly picked one and drove it out, and the butler didn't stop her.

Xia Wanwan waited at home for a long time but Lu Qi didn't come to pick her up. She decided to drive Huo Nanxiao's car, but the housekeeper stopped her.

"I'm sorry, Miss Wanwan is not fully recovered and cannot drive yet. Please wait patiently, Lu Qi will be here to pick you up soon," the butler explained patiently.

Xia Wanwan was completely distraught. She had almost fully recovered and could drive herself, so why wouldn't the housekeeper let her drive? Did he think she wasn't good enough?

Xia Ningxi could drive Huo Nanxiao's car away without saying a word, but Xia Wanwan, as Huo Nanxiao's current wife, didn't even have the right to touch his car? She was provoked and left with red eyes.

The housekeeper also told Xia Ningxi about the matter, but she ignored it. She didn't want to meddle in other people's business. As for whether Xia Wanwan would go to Huo Nanxiao to complain, Xia Ningxi didn't care.

The children had been playing at the amusement park all morning and were quite thirsty, so Xia Ningxi took them to a nearby tea restaurant to rest and ordered a lot of food for the little ones to eat.

After eating and drinking their fill, the three little ones were so sleepy that they fell asleep together in a haphazard way as soon as they climbed into the car.

Xia Ningxi could only drive carefully back to Lanyuan, only to find Xia Wanwan still at home. She was quite puzzled, but didn't ask any questions.

She called two maids to carry Chu Chu and Xing Xing upstairs, while she herself carried Huo Yuan and settled him on his large bed.

Huo Yuan is a light sleeper. He was startled and cried out as soon as he was put on the bed. He fell asleep again after seeing that it was Xia Ningxi, but he held her even tighter, as if he was afraid that she would leave.

Xia Ningxi grabbed Xingxing and then pried Huo Yuan's hands apart one by one, placing them on Xingxing's body. Little Huo Yuan regarded Xingxing as a safe haven and slept soundly while holding him.

With Xingxing and Chuchu around, Xia Ningxi doesn't need to take time to comfort Huo Yuan. As long as he's with his younger siblings, he can always sleep soundly. Perhaps this is a unique sense of security that triplets have.

This sense of security is something even Xia Ningxi, her biological mother, cannot match.

"So good." Xia Ningxi touched the little ones' faces, her eyes full of tenderness.

She gently closed the door, but was startled to see the butler standing respectfully outside: "What is it?"

"Young Madam, Xia Wanwan wants to talk to you." The housekeeper looked worried.

Xia Ningxi understood: "I understand."

She went downstairs, and Xia Wanwan was sitting on the sofa, holding a glass of juice in her hand. She looked unwell and seemed to have something on her mind.

She knew what Xia Wanwan wanted to do and that Xia Wanwan was desperate, which was why she came to cause trouble for her time and time again.

"I heard you were looking for me." Xia Ningxi walked over and sat down opposite Xia Wanwan.

Xia Wanwan said, "I went home this morning and checked on Luo Luo. She had just returned from the hospital after trying to prevent miscarriage. The doctor said her condition wasn't good."

“Then we should listen to the doctor.” Xia Ningxi nodded, agreeing with the doctor’s approach.

Xia Wanwan said, "Luo Luo has been sulking ever since she heard that Master Huo gifted an island to the three children. She has great ambitions and went to great lengths to get pregnant with this child in order to compete for the Huo family's possessions."

“I know,” Xia Ningxi replied.

Xia Wanwan: "Can you tolerate her competing with you for all of this?"

"The child is hers, she can do whatever she wants, what can an outsider like me do to her?" Xia Ningxi wondered.

Xia Wanwan said, "I've cut off her path."

“This is what you should do. After all, you are Huo Nanxiao’s wife.” Xia Ningxi said with a smile.

Xia Wanwan clenched her fists and said, word by word, "My status as his wife is meaningless. Not to mention outsiders, even Nan Xiao doesn't treat me as his real wife."

Xia Ningxi smiled slightly: "This is your business, I can't help you."

"You must think I'm ridiculous too, right?" Xia Wanwan's eyes were red and her voice was hoarse.

Xia Ningxi: "It's quite ridiculous."

Xia Wanwan was taken aback. She hadn't expected Xia Ningxi to admit it so readily. She thought Xia Ningxi would at least pretend, but she didn't even try.

The servant brought tea and carefully placed it in front of the two of them.

In this family, everyone, from top to bottom, remembers Xia Ningxi's preferences. Everything is done according to Xia Ningxi's tastes, even the tea is Longjing tea, which Xia Ningxi loves to drink.

Xia Wanwan tried to find any trace of Xia Ningxi in this house, but couldn't.

This is the wedding room that Huo Nanxiao carefully prepared for her. Even though Xia Ningxi and Huo Nanxiao are divorced, she is still the only mistress of this Lanyuan.

Xia Wanwan smiled wryly: "I do envy you, and I also want to have a happy marriage like you. I heard from Luo Luo that you didn't have a good life when you first married Huo Nanxiao, but at least he prepared a wedding house for you and had children with you."

As for me, after marrying him, there wasn't even a proper wedding house, let alone a decent diamond ring. He never personally designed anything for me, nor did he ever decorate our new home. He always remained detached and distant from me. I think it's because of you.
