Chapter 2: Even if you kill me, I won't do it!
The piercing cries echoed throughout the entire building.
The Xia family was extremely agitated.
Zhou Fenglin couldn't help but curse, "How long is this little brat going to cry? He's such a useless little thing, always letting us down at crucial moments, just as annoying as his dead mother."
Xia Luoluo's expression changed drastically: "Mother, you can't say such things. Huo Yuan is my sister's son. What does he have to do with that bitch?"
Zhou Fenglin quickly covered her mouth, looked around to make sure no one else heard, and said, "When exactly is Young Master Huo coming to pick you and this little beast up?"
Xia Luoluo said, "They're already on their way, but Huo Yuan doesn't want to come with us."
Zhou Fenglin said, "He won't stop crying for half a day like this. In my opinion, we should just drag him out and give him a beating so he'll realize who he is."
"No, if outsiders see this, who knows what they'll say about us. Although Young Master Huo doesn't like Xia Ningxi, Huo Yuan is still his own son."
Xia Luoluo dislikes Huo Yuan, but she is aware of his identity. No matter what, Huo Yuan is the only young master of the Huo family. Her Xia family relies on Huo Yuan to climb up the social ladder. If she wants to stand rightfully by Huo Nanxiao's side, she still needs Huo Yuan as a stepping stone.
Let's let him off the hook for now. If he doesn't behave well at the birthday party, we can deal with him when we get back!
While they were cursing, they didn't notice that Huo Yuan had already climbed onto the window upstairs...
Bang--
A loud bang!
The people inside the villa were startled.
Charlotte asked in alarm, "What was that sound?"
"Something terrible has happened! The young master has fallen from the building!" The guard's voice was shrill outside the door.
Xia Luoluo's face turned deathly pale instantly: "What? Fall? Fall from a building?"
She rushed out the door like a madwoman and saw a child covered in blood lying under the window of Huo Yuan's room. Who else could it be but Huo Yuan!
"It's over, it's all over! Young Master Huo is coming to pick us up soon, what should I do! What am I going to do!"
Xia Luoluo was panicked.
Just then, two blinding beams of light shone into the distance, and the Huo family's grand convoy headed towards the Xia family's direction.
The Xia family members stared at Huo Yuan, who was covered in blood on the ground, and were so frightened that they didn't know what to do.
Xia Luoluo was sweating profusely. Her body trembled as she forced herself to overcome her fear and rushed over to stop the convoy.
"Young Master Huo, something terrible has happened! A Yuan has fallen from a building!"
The Huo family's convoy stopped, and everyone's expression changed drastically.
When Xia Luoluo saw Huo Nanxiao, two streams of tears immediately flowed from the corners of her eyes.
"I don't know what happened to A-Yuan, he insisted on locking himself in his room. I didn't expect him to be so careless and fall down the stairs. Young Master Huo, I'm sorry, it's all my fault. It's all my fault for not taking good care of him..."
Where is he?!
The man was furious, his sharp voice filled with murderous intent!
Xia Luoluo pointed tremblingly at Huo Yuan, who was lying in a pool of blood, and then fell silent.
Huo Nanxiao's eyes were bloodshot as he grabbed Xia Luoluo's collar: "If anything happens to him, I'll take your life!"
Xia Luoluo was so frightened that tears streamed down her face.
Huo Nanxiao disregarded everything else and quickly took Huo Yuan to the hospital.
Huo Nanxiao was personally received by the hospital director. Huo Yuan's injuries were severe, requiring immediate surgery. Fortunately, there were many doctors on duty that night, but because of Huo Yuan's special status, the director planned to have a doctor recently hired from abroad at great expense perform the surgery.
"Dr. Xia, today's injured patient is a three-year-old boy, Huo Shao's only son. You must be more careful than usual during the surgery. The surgery must be successful, otherwise it will cause big trouble for the hospital."
The woman, dressed in a smart lab coat, had her long hair tied up expressionlessly. Holding the X-ray films in her hand coldly, she said, "I treat all patients equally. I will do my best in this surgery. Wait… which Mr. Huo?"
The dean said, "The Crown Prince of the Imperial City, Huo Nanxiao."
Xia Ningxi's fingers turned white, and a hint of astonishment appeared on her stunning face under the mask. She hadn't expected to run into him so soon after being transferred to this hospital. Wait, how could Huo Nanxiao have a son?
"Huo Nanxiao has a son?"
Xia Ningxi was very surprised.
The dean said, "Yes, a little boy, three years old. Didn't I already tell you about the child's situation when I came in?"
Xia Ningxi said, "Huo Nanxiao's ex-wife is dead, so where did this three-year-old child come from? Even if he was born to his ex-wife, he should be four years old now."
The dean explained, "This child is not born to Huo Shao's ex-wife, but to Xia Wanwan, the eldest daughter of the Xia family. Four years ago, Huo Shao's ex-wife passed away, and Xia Wanwan woke up immediately and had a child with Huo Shao, named Huo Yuan, who is just three years old this year."
Xia Ningxi felt a sharp pain in her chest, and the light in her eyes vanished in an instant. So that's how it is. So that was Xia Wanwan's child.
She put down her surgical gown and said, "Dean, I'm sorry, I can't perform this surgery."
The dean was shocked: "How can this be! Didn't you just agree to it? Why aren't you doing it?"
Xia Ningxi tried her best to calm herself down and said, "I just returned to China and I'm not feeling well. Let Dr. Yang do this surgery."
She is not a person of great principle. She could do anything for anyone lying on the operating table today, but it just can't be Xia Wanwan's child!
Xia Ningxi turned and left.
The dean chased after him.
The operating room was ready, and Huo Nanxiao waited anxiously, but the doctor did not arrive for a long time. His anger was about to explode.
Just then, Huo Nanxiao heard that the surgeon wanted to abandon his son. He was furious and gave an order. Huo's bodyguards quickly stopped the woman in white.
The corridor was quiet, yet deathly still.
Xia Ningxi could clearly feel the light behind her, sharp as a knife. She even suspected that if she left now, the man behind her would not hesitate to tear her to pieces and devour her.
But what can we do about it?
Huo Nanxiao, I called you so many times back then, and even if I were to die, you wouldn't come to see me. Now you want me to save your son?
ridiculous!
Xia Ningxi's trembling body stiffened slightly. She turned around, and her beautiful eyes met the man's sharp eyes. He was still the same as before, so aloof and arrogant!
Xia Ningxi had forgotten how much she had loved this man in the past. Now, everything had turned into hatred. She said coldly, "Young Master Huo, I am not feeling well today and cannot perform surgery on the young master. Dr. Yang at the hospital is very experienced. I will go and find him now."
The crisp sound startled the man.
A look of surprise flashed in his deep eyes as he stared at the woman before him and walked towards her step by step.
The woman wore a mask that almost completely covered her face. Although she smelled strongly of hospital disinfectant, there was also a familiar scent mixed in.
Huo Nanxiao questioned, "What if I insist that you perform this surgery today? What will you do then?"
As soon as the voice fell, Xia Ningxi was surrounded by people.
Xia Ningxi was breathing rapidly, and she clenched her fists: "Even if you kill me today, I will not perform this surgery!"
