Chapter 278 You Should Give Me an Answer
Xia Ningxi was amused.
She rarely heard such ridiculous things.
She raised her beautiful eyebrows and gazed at Xia Luoluo, saying each word clearly, "Why should I listen to you?"
Xia Luoluo said, "If you still have any shame, then get out of here. Huo Shao remembers everything you did back then. Do you think he let you move into Lanyuan because he really forgave you? All he needs is a nanny to take care of the child. Huo Shao said back when you were pregnant that the child's mother could only be my sister."
Xia Ningxi's smile vanished, replaced by a cold smirk: "Since I'm so unimportant to Huo Nanxiao, what are you afraid of?"
Xia Luoluo was stunned, clenched her hands, and said bitterly, "You shouldn't have stayed in the Imperial City."
“My job is here, so I’m not leaving,” Xia Ningxi said firmly.
Xia Luoluo sneered, "Do you think that by shamelessly staying by Huo Nanxiao's side, you can become the eldest young mistress of the Huo family again? He has never loved you. What do you have to fight against my sister? If you leave now and let me raise the child, I might treat the child better for your sake."
"But if you insist on staying in the capital and holding the children in your own hands, I think when my sister wakes up and sees those two children, she won't be happy. Given Huo Nanxiao's affection for my sister, do you think he'll choose the woman he loves most, or those two pawns?"
Xia Ningxi sneered: "What Huo Nanxiao chooses is his business, it's none of your concern. If he really chooses Xia Wanwan and abandons these two children, that's exactly what I want."
Xia Luoluo's face turned extremely ugly. She hadn't expected Xia Ningxi to be so sharp-tongued in rejecting her.
Xia Ningxi continued, "You're in such a hurry to come to me, it seems you can't sit still anymore. Compared to Xia Wanwan, I think the person in this world who most wants me to leave is you. If I'm not mistaken, are you plotting something, waiting for me to leave so you can move into Lanyuan under the guise of taking care of the two children?"
Charlotte said, "This is my business, it's none of your concern."
"Heh, my son is naturally my responsibility to take care of. Forget about it. I won't leave the capital easily." Xia Ningxi snorted coldly and got up to leave.
Xia Luoluo chased after her, shouting, "Xia Ningxi, you stop right there!"
Xia Ningxi stopped in her tracks.
Xia Luoluo said, "You are the homewrecker who ruined my sister's relationship with Huo Shao. Once she wakes up, you will have no place to stand. If you leave now, you can at least save face!"
"The last shred of dignity?"
Xia Ningxi sneered.
Her dignity was never given to her by others.
Did Xia Luoluo really think she was afraid of Xia Wanwan waking up?
She knew that Xia Wanwan was irreplaceable in Huo Nanxiao's heart when Huo Nanxiao abandoned Xia Ningxi.
Xia Ningxi never intended to replace Xia Wanwan.
She stayed because Huo Yuan and Xingxing were both her children, and she wanted to stay for their sake.
Xia Ningxi didn't care at all about what Xia Luoluo said.
Throughout the entire capital city, many people wish for Xia Ningxi to disappear. Why should Xia Ningxi listen to them?
Xia Luoluo has worked so hard for so many years just so she could marry Huo Nanxiao, right?
Now that she knows she's moved into Lanyuan, Xia Luoluo must be so angry she can't sleep at night.
Xia Ningxi found Xia Luoluo increasingly amusing. Without stopping, she hailed a taxi at the door, got in, and drove off.
When Xia Luoluo chased after her, she only saw Xia Ningxi's back and was so angry that she stood there stomping her feet.
Xia Ningxi found it quite amusing to see Xia Luoluo's exasperated appearance through the rearview mirror. She leaned lazily against the car, watching the bustling traffic at dusk, and returned to Lanyuan.
Unexpectedly, Huo Nanxiao got off work earlier than her and was at home playing with his two sons.
Upon hearing Xia Ningxi's voice, the two little ones immediately abandoned Huo Nanxiao and excitedly ran towards Xia Ningxi.
"Mommy, Mommy."
"You're finally back!"
"Dad said he's going to take us back to the old house for dinner."
The two little ones said enthusiastically.
Xia Ningxi looked at Huo Nanxiao: "Are you taking the children back to the Huo family's old house?"
Huo Nanxiao said in a deep voice, "Yes, my parents have never seen a star before. I plan to take one back tonight so they can see it."
Xia Ningxi said, "I see. Then you guys go ahead, I won't go."
Xingxing asked, puzzled, "Why?"
Huo Yuan was also curious: "Doesn't Mommy want to go back to the old house with us?"
Xia Ningxi said, "You two can go, I have work tonight."
“If Mommy isn’t going, I’m not going either,” Xia Xingxing stated directly.
Huo Yuan said, "Then I won't go either."
Huo Nanxiao was surprised that his sons, who had readily agreed, were now unwilling to go. His complicated gaze fell on Xia Ningxi, and he asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Xia Ningxi said, "Given my status, it is not appropriate for me to return to the Huo family."
Huo Yuan and Xingxing are both Huo Nanxiao's children, both young masters of the Huo family. There is no problem for Huo Nanxiao to take the two children back to the old house to meet the elders.
But what about Xia Ningxi...?
Huo Nanxiao had already proposed a divorce to her four years ago.
Xia Ningxi is at most Huo Nanxiao's ex-wife.
She was very tired and went straight upstairs to rest.
Watching Xia Ningxi's departing figure, Huo Yuan said in a low voice, "Daddy, Mommy seems to be in a bad mood today."
Xia Xingxing also sensed it: "Mommy must be tired from work."
Huo Nanxiao knew that Xia Ningxi was troubled, so he let his two sons play downstairs while he strode upstairs with his long legs.
At this moment, Xia Ningxi was lying quietly on the sofa in the bedroom without moving. When Huo Nanxiao pushed the door open and walked in, Xia Ningxi happened to be looking at him.
Xia Ningxi asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"
Huo Nanxiao walked to the opposite side of Xia Ningxi and sat down. "You really don't like coming home with me?"
Xia Ningxi said, "That's your home, not mine."
Huo Nanxiao said, "You are the child's mother, and you should go back to see my parents."
Xia Ningxi asked, "And then?"
Huo Nanxiao's handsome face darkened.
Xia Ningxi said, "In what capacity did you bring me back to the Huo family? Are you your wife, your ex-wife, or just an outsider that a child likes?"
Huo Nanxiao said with a serious expression, "Why are you asking these questions?"
Xia Ningxi said, "I just want to know what kind of role I play in your heart."
“You are the child’s mother,” Huo Nanxiao replied.
Xia Ningxi was taken aback. She looked up, her beautiful eyes fixed intently on Huo Nanxiao, and asked, "After Xia Wanwan wakes up, will I still be the child's mother?"
Huo Nanxiao remained silent.
Xia Ningxi met his deep eyes and asked, word by word, "Huo Nanxiao, you should give me an answer."
