Chapter 1028 Xia Ningxi, save me
Mrs. Della could also see that Xia Luoluo was not Huo Nanxiao's woman, and even if she was pregnant, the child would not be welcome. Since that was the case, she had nothing to worry about anymore.
She is not a generous person, and what she can't tolerate most is others hurting her family.
Even though she was invited here and stayed in a guest room arranged by Huo Nanxiao, the murderer was not hired by Huo Nanxiao. Therefore, Della did not vent her anger on Huo Nanxiao, but instead vented it all on Xia Luoluo.
She punched and kicked Xia Luoluo relentlessly, ignoring her screams. When she finally got tired, Xia Luoluo's hands and feet were covered in blood.
Even so, Xia Luoluo still protected her stomach tightly, not allowing anyone to touch it at all.
"She's your woman, after all. Are you just going to watch her get beaten up?" Li Yancheng couldn't help but mock Huo Nanxiao.
Huo Nanxiao, however, did not take it to heart at all and replied calmly, "If you feel sorry for her, you can take her home. I will not stop you."
“I don’t have a penchant for picking up trash.” Li Yancheng immediately refused, glanced at the pitiful Xia Luoluo on the ground, and said, “This person is pregnant, after all. You can’t just beat her up to the point of miscarriage. After all, it’s your child. Even if you don’t like Xia Luoluo, you should still think about the child in her belly.”
Huo Nanxiao: "Why are you so concerned? People who don't know better would think it's your child."
Li Yancheng: "I haven't even touched her, how could she be my child? You're a man, how can you just watch your child die like this? This child was counting on inheriting your family fortune."
Huo Nanxiao didn't speak, his cold face devoid of any emotion, and his gaze was as if he were looking at a fool.
He didn't care at all whether Xia Luoluo lived or died, and he cared even less about the child in her womb.
Li Yancheng could only make sarcastic remarks, but Huo Nanxiao completely ignored him, and Li Yancheng couldn't do anything about it.
As for Xia Luoluo, after enduring the pain for a long time, she realized that no one cared whether she lived or died, so she could only cry and search for her phone to make a call for help.
Della snatched her phone, slammed it against the wall, and yelled, "You still want to call for help? You can just stay here and suffer!"
"You've gone too far! I'm calling the police! I'm calling the police!" Xia Luoluo screamed.
Della sneered: "Fine, go ahead and call the police now. It'll be a good opportunity for them to investigate the dirty things you've done. Hiring someone to commit murder will land you in jail. We happen to have the evidence. If it weren't for your pregnancy, I would have sent you in long ago."
Xia Luoluo was trembling all over, whether from the pain or from being terrified, she didn't know. Her eyes were red, probably from the pain. Finally, she couldn't help but beg Xia Ningxi for help: "Please call an ambulance for me."
Xia Ningxi looked at Huo Nanxiao and asked, "What do you plan to do with her?"
"You don't need to get involved." Huo Nanxiao didn't intend to involve Xia Ningxi.
"Understood." Xia Ningxi nodded and turned to leave.
Seeing her last lifeline slipping away, Xia Luoluo screamed frantically, "Stop! Xia Ningxi, stop right there! You can't leave! Help me, please help me! You can't just leave like this!"
"Help me, call an ambulance! My baby, my stomach hurts so much, Xia Ningxi, please..."
Her voice was almost hoarse, thick with sobs, and she shed tears of fear.
Xia Ningxi ignored it and chose to stand by and watch.
After leaving the room, she glanced at the time; it was already quite late. She said to Li Yancheng, "Take me home."
"Okay." Li Yancheng smiled and left.
Xia Luoluo watched helplessly as the two left, then screamed in despair, "Xia Ningxi, come back here!"
Nobody paid any attention to her.
Xia Ningxi decisively entered the elevator and pressed the close button.
Li Yancheng rarely saw her so heartless, and asked, "You're not going to do anything about it? She's pregnant now."
"It's not like I got her pregnant, so why should I care? She's trying to harm not only Huo Nanxiao, but also my child." Xia Ningxi knew this perfectly well.
Li Yancheng said, "This Huo Nanxiao is really something. He was so good to Xia Luoluo when they were together, but now he treats her like this. It's not the behavior of a normal man. He should at least protect his child."
Xia Ningxi nodded: "You're right, no matter how angry you are, you have to protect your child."
However, the child was not Huo Nanxiao's, so Huo Nanxiao didn't care about the child at all, and no matter what outsiders said, it was useless.
Xia Luoluo was foolish enough to think that she could rise to power by relying on her child.
"I'll take a taxi home myself," Xia Ningxi suggested when they got downstairs.
Li Yancheng said, "I'll take you."
"You're too noisy." Xia Ningxi didn't want to listen to his nagging the whole way.
Li Yancheng said, "What's with that expression? Are you disgusted with me?"
"I do find it quite distasteful," Xia Ningxi did not deny.
Li Yancheng said, "Even if I'm not good enough, I'm still better than Huo Nanxiao. It's your good fortune that I'm taking you back to the hotel."
"Okay, take me back to the lab," Xia Ningxi said.
Li Yancheng: "Not staying at the hotel?"
"I'm not staying here. It's bad luck. Who knows if there are still assassins lurking nearby?" Xia Ningxi refused.
Li Yancheng: "Sure, I've also invested in a hotel in Lingcheng. You can stay at my hotel."
"No need." Xia Ningxi's attitude was very firm.
Li Yancheng had no choice but to send the person back to the laboratory.
The news of the hotel attack only broke the next day. The Ling family immediately sent bodyguards, and Ling Shuang also personally came to the laboratory to visit Xia Ningxi. She only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that Xia Ningxi was alright.
Ling Shuang said, "We have investigated what happened last night. It was probably done by the Han family. Have you offended anyone from the Han family recently?"
“It used to be,” Xia Ningxi replied.
Ling Shuang: "You can focus on your work. I will go and negotiate with the Han family."
"Thank you." Xia Ningxi paused for a moment, then continued, "I don't need to arrange so many bodyguards on my side. If possible, please arrange more people to protect the child."
“No problem, your child is also my older brother’s child, we will definitely protect them well.” Ling Shuang agreed. “By the way, I heard something today. Xia Luoluo was beaten until she bled and was sent to the emergency room. The doctors in Lingcheng are not sure if they can save the child.”
"I understand." Xia Ningxi didn't seem to care much.
Ling Shuang said, "Her child is gone, which should be a good thing for you."
Xia Ningxi smiled slightly: "Whether she can keep the child or not will not affect me. Even if she successfully gives birth to the child, it doesn't matter. It's not my child, and I don't need to raise it. The happiest person right now should be her older sister, not me."
