Chapter 554 Crying Soaked Three Blankets
Xia Ningxi didn't expect Huo Nanxiao to suddenly give her the medicinal herbs he had bid on. She didn't accept them, but instead asked Huo Nanxiao, "Weren't you going to take them back for Xia Wanwan? Why are you giving them to me?"
"I'll give you the opportunity to better utilize their value," Huo Nanxiao said in a clear and cool voice.
Li Yancheng scoffed, "If you really wanted to give it to her, you wouldn't have tried to take it from me just now."
"What I do with her is none of your business, an outsider." Huo Nanxiao's eyes were cold.
Li Yancheng sneered: "You already have a fiancée and you still don't know how to restrain yourself? Do you think Xia Ningxi is stupid?"
Ji Feibai: "Li Yancheng, that's enough. If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute."
As he spoke, he walked over to Li Yancheng, grabbed Li Yancheng's arm, and tried to take him away.
Of course, Li Yancheng wouldn't leave so easily, and he almost got into a fight with Ji Feibai.
"Why are you getting involved in their business?" Ji Feibai asked directly.
Li Yancheng sneered: "They're already divorced, why are they still called husband and wife? He already has a fiancée, does he expect Huo Nanxiao to share a husband with two women?"
"That's none of your business, you don't need to worry about it." Ji Feibai forcibly pulled Li Yancheng away, not wanting him to get in Huo Nanxiao's way.
Xia Ningxi glanced at Li Yancheng's back, then lowered her gaze and focused on Huo Nanxiao.
"Since it's for Xia Wanwan to buy, I'll take it back and give it to her. This medicinal herb was originally brought here by Li Yancheng to please me, so I don't necessarily need it."
She didn't want to accept Huo Nanxiao's kindness and walked past him.
Huo Nanxiao grabbed her wrist, pulled her back, and embraced her tightly.
“You…” Xia Ningxi’s voice trembled slightly.
Huo Nanxiao said, "Stay away from him."
“We have no relationship anymore,” Xia Ningxi said very seriously.
Huo Nanxiao: "I don't want to repeat myself a second time."
"You're too greedy. I don't care about you and Xia Wanwan, so why do you have to interfere in my affairs? Li Yancheng is at least very good to me. He hasn't hurt me or done anything bad to me. I'm happy with him, so I hope you won't meddle in other people's business." Xia Ningxi's voice was clear and crisp.
Huo Nanxiao got angry: "You like him that much?"
"And what about you? Do you like Xia Wanwan that much?"
She posed the same question to Huo Nanxiao.
Neither of them has the right to judge the other in this matter.
"It's late, I should go back now. I won't chat with you anymore, the children are waiting for me at home." Xia Ningxi reached out and pushed him away.
Huo Nanxiao held her wrist tightly: "I'll take you back."
"No need, Li Yancheng will take me," Xia Ningxi refused.
Huo Nanxiao was furious: "In your eyes, is he someone you can trust more than me?"
"I just didn't want to trouble you. After all, our relationship isn't that good. If reporters find out that you took me home late at night, who knows what they'll say? And who knows what people will say about Xia Wanwan. Since we can prevent this from happening in the first place, why add unnecessary trouble for both of us?" She smiled slightly, suppressing the bitterness in her heart.
She had told herself not to care anymore, but the thought of Huo Nanxiao throwing such a big engagement banquet for Xia Wanwan still made her feel incredibly sad.
She has been married to Huo Nanxiao for so many years, but he has never publicly acknowledged her identity.
She was clearly Huo Nanxiao's wife.
But over the years, she seems to have always been the shadow hiding behind Xia Wanwan.
Huo Nanxiao looked at her pale face and saw heartache and bitterness in her eyes. The fleeting sadness made his heart tremble. He didn't know how to answer.
But he was unwilling to let Xia Ningxi go so easily.
"I won't allow you to get too close to Li Yancheng," Huo Nanxiao said domineeringly.
Xia Ningxi: "It's none of your business anymore."
He gripped her shoulders and said, word by word, "I'm not asking for your opinion, just don't let me see you alone with him again."
Xia Ningxi didn't want to talk to him.
"I'm talking to you, did you hear me?" Huo Nanxiao said angrily.
Xia Ningxi said, "Don't you think you're being unreasonable right now?"
Huo Nanxiao: "I don't think so!"
Xia Ningxi laughed in anger, "Making this request is the same as me asking you to break off your relationship with Xia Wanwan. You can't even do it yourself, so why should I do it?"
“I’m different from Wanwan,” he explained.
Xia Ningxi asked, "How is it different?"
“I owe her, and I should repay her. But you and Li Yancheng have nothing to do with each other,” Huo Nanxiao said.
Remembering what Li Yancheng had said, Xia Ningxi couldn't help but meet the man's dark eyes, looking at him very seriously, and asked, word by word, "Huo Nanxiao, do you really think it was Xia Wanwan who saved you back then?"
"What do you mean?"
The man suddenly grabbed Xia Ningxi's wrist with great force.
His deep, sharp eyes were fixed on the girl's beautiful face, and a chilling aura surrounded him.
Xia Ningxi said, "I just want to know if you're really so sure that Xia Wanwan saved you back then."
Huo Nanxiao remained silent. He couldn't answer the question, but he was probably right.
only……
Huo Nanxiao: "Why would you suddenly ask that? Did Li Yancheng tell you something? Or do you know about what happened back then?"
“You should ask Xia Wanwan directly; only she knows best what happened back then. But even if Xia Wanwan hadn’t been there, you would still have married her, right?” Xia Ningxi asked.
This question still remains unanswered.
She was tired; she no longer wanted to argue with Huo Nanxiao.
Her phone kept vibrating, and she didn't know who was calling her. Xia Ningxi took her phone out of her bag and realized it was Li Yancheng calling.
She walked to the side and answered the phone.
"Hurry up and come out. I'm waiting for you at the door. I'll take you home." Li Yancheng was very impatient, probably because he had been waiting for too long.
Xia Ningxi said, "I understand, I'll go out now."
Huo Nanxiao walked over, snatched her phone, and slammed it down.
"I'll give it to you." He was very domineering.
Xia Ningxi gritted her teeth: "Huo Nanxiao, haven't you made enough trouble? You already have a fiancée, why are you still meddling in my affairs? Are you just bored and have nothing better to do? I have nothing to do with you anymore, can you please stop interfering in my business?"
"cannot!"
The man was extremely cold-hearted.
He didn't even give Xia Ningxi a chance to resist, and led her towards the elevator while holding her hand.
Xia Ningxi struggled.
Huo Nanxiao simply picked her up and carried her around the waist.
"Put me down!" Xia Ningxi said angrily.
Huo Nanxiao ignored her.
Xia Ningxi was so angry that she hit him, which attracted a lot of onlookers.
Huo Nanxiao said, "If you want to be on the front page tomorrow, then keep making a scene."
Xia Ningxi gritted her teeth: "Even if I make the headlines, you won't escape! The Crown Prince of the capital is cheating on his fiancée late at night. Ha, if your fiancée sees this, she'll cry her eyes out!"
