Chapter 417 You Only Have Her in Your Eyes
Huo Nanxiao must have eaten something sour, because the things he said were particularly unpleasant.
If Xia Ningxi hadn't known that Huo Nanxiao liked Xia Wanwan, she would never have suggested that she take a taxi back and let Huo Nanxiao go find Xia Wanwan. This bastard not only didn't appreciate her at all, but he also smeared her!
What an annoying jerk.
Do you think I'd rather take a taxi home by myself?
If you yourself don't care about Xia Wanwan's life or death, then I have even less reason to care!
Xia Ningxi puffed out her cheeks, shifted her position, and deliberately increased the distance between herself and Huo Nanxiao, practically pressing her entire body against the car door.
This action made Huo Nanxiao very angry.
Huo Nanxiao's handsome face turned terribly gloomy. "Did I guess right?"
"Yes, you're right. I'm going to meet Li Yancheng in secret. Is there a problem? It's none of your business, right? I've already signed the divorce papers. It's none of your business who I meet or date."
Xia Ningxi didn't bother to explain and simply accepted it.
Huo Nanxiao's eyes darkened: "Say it again!"
"I could say it ten more times and it would be the same," Xia Ningxi said with a cold snort, her pink lips curling into a sneer.
The man beside her suddenly fell silent, saying nothing. However, the atmosphere inside the car clearly changed, becoming so oppressive that it was almost suffocating.
Lu Qi, who was driving, kept wiping away cold sweat, thinking to himself that this young mistress was really bold!
I finally made it back to Lanyuan.
Huo Nanxiao got out of the car in a rage.
"Daddy!" Huo Yuan was overjoyed to see Huo Nanxiao and ran towards the man as fast as he could.
"Daddy, where's Mommy?" Xingxing asked curiously.
Huo Nanxiao said, "He's dead."
"Huh?" Starry eyes widened.
Chuchu, with her adorable little face, stretched out her tiny hand: "Isn't Mommy over there?"
Huo Nanxiao was furious and didn't even glance at Xia Ningxi. He reached out and picked up the baby Chu Chu.
No one knows how Huo Nanxiao carried them, but he carried all three children away almost at the same time.
Xia Ningxi, who was always greeted by her three children when she returned home, was puzzled to find the house empty. Upon entering, she discovered that all three children had been "kidnapped" by Huo Nanxiao.
"Mommy, why are you so late coming home? Didn't you say you'd be back earlier?" Chu Chu asked, feeling wronged. She had been waiting for her mother at home for a long time.
Xia Ningxi said, "Mommy could have come home much earlier, but someone wouldn't let her."
"Who is it?" Chu Chu's little cheeks were puffed up with anger.
Xia Ningxi raised her chin and pointed at someone: "Him."
Chu Chu, with a fierce yet endearing expression, questioned Huo Nanxiao: "Bad uncle, why are you bullying Mommy?"
"It's none of your business." Huo Nanxiao was angry and didn't want to talk to Chu Chu.
Chu Chu punched him in the chest with her little fist.
Huo Nanxiao's handsome face changed color. He clenched Chu Chu's little pink fist and said, "You have quite the nerve."
"Bad uncle, you're not allowed to bully Mommy!" Chu Chu shouted back defiantly, her voice both cute and fierce.
Huo Nanxiao sneered: "Your mother is going to run off with some other man and abandon you three children. If I hadn't stopped her tonight, you wouldn't be seeing her."
“Nonsense, Mommy isn’t that kind of person.” Chu Chu didn’t believe it.
Xingxing curiously peeked out and asked, "Who is Mommy going to run off with? Is he handsome?"
Huo Yuan was also curious: "Is he better than Daddy? What does Daddy know? Can you tell me?"
"Aren't you focusing on the wrong thing?" Huo Nanxiao asked, displeased.
Xingxing said, "It's okay if Mommy really runs off with another man. Since Mommy chose him, it means he's a very trustworthy person. I will support Mommy in seeking her true love."
Huo Nanxiao's handsome face grew darker and darker. Did these three little guys not understand human speech?
Do they really want Xia Ningxi to run off with someone else?
If Xia Ningxi really ran away, would she still want these three children?
How ridiculous!
Huo Nanxiao grew angrier the more he thought about it.
Just then, the Xia family called, wanting Huo Nanxiao to come and see Xia Wanwan. Huo Nanxiao glanced at Xia Ningxi but didn't answer the person on the other end of the phone.
Xia Ningxi guessed that it must be a call from the Xia family and said, "It's getting late, I'll take the child upstairs to bathe and rest."
Then, she led the children upstairs.
Huo Nanxiao watched Xia Ningxi's departing figure, his eyes deep.
...
The three children were quite noisy, so Xia Ningxi first turned on the hot water to bathe Chu Chu, and then filled the tub to bathe her two sons.
Xingxing and Huo Yuan kept asking Xia Ningxi to hold them, but she was in so much pain that she didn't have the strength to hold her two sons.
"Xingxing, Ayuan, Mommy isn't feeling well, so I won't hold you. You two can take a bath by yourselves, okay?" Xia Ningxi said gently.
"Is Mommy sick?" Xingxing asked worriedly.
Huo Yuan looked Xia Ningxi up and down, but couldn't see where she was injured. He asked, "Mommy, where does it hurt?"
"I'm fine, I just don't have the strength. You guys take a bath yourselves, I won't help you," Xia Ningxi said.
The two children were very considerate; noticing that Xia Ningxi looked unwell, they took a bath by themselves.
Xia Ningxi waited outside the bathroom. Her two sons were both four years old, and there should be a distinction between boys and girls. It wasn't really appropriate for Xia Ningxi to keep bathing them.
However, Xia Ningxi was also worried that something might happen to them in the bathroom, so she stayed outside the door and didn't leave.
Suddenly, the door was pushed open.
Xia Ningxi thought it was Chu Chu who had come over, but when she turned around, she saw Huo Nanxiao walk in.
"Why are you here?" Xia Ningxi was surprised. Shouldn't Huo Nanxiao be at the Xia family looking for Xia Wanwan at this time?
"You really don't want to see me?"
The man snorted coldly.
Xia Ningxi felt like this guy had taken a bomb.
"Since you're here, you can look after our son. I'm tired, so I won't sleep with the kids tonight. Please take good care of them."
Xia Ningxi was too lazy to argue with Huo Nanxiao. After leaving a sentence, she dragged her tired body away.
Huo Nanxiao noticed that her expression was not good and his mood was very complicated.
After giving his two sons a bath, Huo Nanxiao coaxed them to sleep.
Chu Chu insisted on sticking to her two older brothers. Out of consideration for his two sons, Huo Nanxiao did not kick Chu Chu out of the room. He leaned against the headboard, held a storybook, and told stories to the three little ones. In less than half an hour, the three little ones fell asleep, slumped over.
Huo Nanxiao covered them with blankets before leaving.
The room light was still on; Xia Ningxi hadn't gone to sleep.
Huo Nanxiao gently pushed open the door and went in. In the dim light, the woman's clothes were half off, and her fair, porcelain-like shoulders were faintly visible, exuding an indescribable allure.
The man's deep eyes narrowed slightly as he closed the door, afraid that outsiders would see the alluring spring scenery before him.
Xia Ningxi did not have the habit of sleeping naked. Huo Nanxiao only realized when he got close that she was applying medicine to herself.
She's injured!
"who?"
Xia Ningxi was startled by the footsteps. In a panic, she pulled up her clothes to cover her exposed body and turned around abruptly.
"I."
Huo Nanxiao calmly replied with a single word.
Xia Ningxi was somewhat surprised when she saw it was Huo Nanxiao: "Is the child asleep?"
"Um."
He walked towards Xia Ningxi.
Xia Ningxi felt a little awkward and pulled the blanket over herself, trying to completely cover her body.
"What are you blocking?" Huo Nanxiao asked, displeased.
"It's nothing, I'm going to sleep."
Xia Ningxi picked up her pillow and was about to go to sleep.
Huo Nanxiao grasped her wrist: "Let me see."
"?" Xia Ningxi looked bewildered: "What are you looking at?"
"The injuries on your body," Huo Nanxiao said very seriously.
Xia Ningxi's heart trembled imperceptibly. She looked at the man's handsome and charming face with a puzzled expression. "There's nothing to see. I'm going to sleep."
"What are you afraid of? Are you afraid I'll see your body?" Huo Nanxiao questioned unhappily.
Xia Ningxi bit her lip and didn't answer, but her hands gripped the blanket draped over her tightly, not daring to let go.
Huo Nanxiao forcefully pulled her small body into his arms and roughly ripped off the blanket draped over her. Only then did he realize that Xia Ningxi's shoulder was swollen and had turned bluish-purple due to the lack of timely treatment.
"I'll take you to the hospital."
Without the slightest hesitation, the man took off his coat and draped it over Xia Ningxi's shoulders.
"No need, it's nothing serious," Xia Ningxi said.
Huo Nanxiao got angry: "You call this nothing, with your skin swollen like this?"
Xia Ningxi: "Why are you so angry? I am a doctor myself. If I said I'm fine, then I'm fine."
Her nonchalant attitude displeased Huo Nanxiao. He angrily pinched Xia Ningxi's face, gritting his teeth: "Is this how you take care of yourself?"
"I won't die, and my internal organs aren't damaged. I'll just need some medicine and rest for a while. Going to the hospital won't make a difference. I'm exhausted and don't want to go through any more trouble. Let me rest." Xia Ningxi didn't have the energy to argue with Huo Nanxiao. Although she didn't know why Huo Nanxiao was so angry, she didn't want to ask anymore.
Huo Nanxiao felt a pang of sadness looking at Xia Ningxi's weak face.
“Turn around, I’ll help you apply the medicine.” He was particularly fierce.
A look of surprise flashed in Xia Ningxi's beautiful eyes.
Huo Nanxiao was displeased and disliked her procrastination. He pulled the woman into his arms and took off her clothes.
"I...I can do it myself." Xia Ningxi's ears burned, her hands gripping her chest helplessly.
Huo Nanxiao scoffed, pinching Xia Ningxi's cheek, and said, word by word, "Don't force me to strip you naked."
"..." Xia Ningxi's forehead was covered in black lines, and she dared not struggle anymore.
Half of her shoulder was swollen, making it impossible for her to exert any strength, and Xia Ningxi was unable to apply medicine to her back.
"Be gentle, it hurts," Xia Ningxi whispered.
Huo Nanxiao sneered: "You're afraid of pain?"
"I'm not made of iron, of course I'm afraid of pain," Xia Ningxi said angrily.
Huo Nanxiao questioned, "Then why didn't you tell me sooner?"
"Would it be of any use if I told you?" Xia Ningxi retorted.
Huo Nanxiao: "How could it not work? I'll take you to the hospital immediately."
"Hmph, you only have eyes for that Xia Wanwan." Xia Ningxi didn't believe Huo Nanxiao's nonsense.
She and Xia Wanwan fell from the building at the same time, but Huo Nanxiao only took Xia Wanwan to see a doctor and ignored Xia Ningxi!
