Chapter 557 Can I Really Marry Him?
Huo Nanxiao's attitude towards Xia Wanwan was extremely cold, so cold that Xia Wanwan almost forgot that the man in front of her had once been in love with her.
Xia Wanwan vaguely recalled everything that had happened back then, and a bitter feeling welled up in her heart. She bit her lip, her eyes red: "Nan Xiao, do you think I'm no good anymore?"
"Why do you ask that?" Huo Nanxiao countered.
Xia Wanwan said, "Do you think my family did something wrong, and you're starting to dislike me because of them?"
“Since you are family, you should restrain them. I got engaged to you because I didn’t want you to be pointed at by outsiders and I wanted you to have a comfortable environment to recover. But your family doesn’t seem to think that way. In their eyes, they probably think they’ve snagged a rich husband and want to make good use of him.”
Huo Nanxiao's cold voice was filled with disdain; clearly, he looked down on such people.
Xia Wanwan could also clearly sense Huo Nanxiao's dissatisfaction with her family. She bit her lip and said tremblingly, "I will remind them of the wrong things they did when I get back, and I will not let them use your name to bully others again."
"It's good that you know it in your heart." Huo Nanxiao remained indifferent.
Xia Wanwan lowered her head, her eyes misty, and said in a hoarse voice, "You actually already know what my parents are like. I'm still sick and don't know anything about their company. They won't tell me either. If you find anything wrong with them, just point it out. Nan Xiao, I don't want my family to affect our relationship."
"I'm not intervening, but I'm giving them a chance out of respect for you."
Huo Nanxiao lifted his foot to leave.
"Nan Xiao." Xia Wanwan suddenly called out to him.
Huo Nanxiao asked, "Is there anything else?"
"Don't you like me?" Xia Wanwan tried to ask the question that was bothering her.
Huo Nanxiao said, "You saved my life, so I should take responsibility for you."
"What I'm asking is, do you still like me?" Xia Wanwan asked again, voicing the question that had been lingering in her mind.
The man did not answer.
Xia Wanwan said, "I know that saying this will burden you, but I still like you very much. Many years ago, I thought about marrying you. But then an accident happened, and we missed each other by a twist of fate. But even now, you still have a place in my heart. I just want to know, if I hadn't saved you back then, would you still have chosen to get engaged to me?"
"Won't."
The man did not hesitate at all.
Xia Wanwan's eyes reddened, and she gave a bitter smile: "In your heart, is Qin Weiqian the only one left?"
“You shouldn’t have asked,” Huo Nanxiao said.
Xia Wanwan: "You never used to say such ambiguous things to me. It seems you have changed after marrying her. But if that's the case, you could have continued to be with Ning Xi after getting engaged to me. There's no need to pretend to be so loving in front of the media. You're not only deceiving others, but you're also deceiving me, making me think you truly love me."
She felt bitter inside, and as she spoke, tears began to fall, flowing uncontrollably like a burst dam.
Perhaps due to the extreme emotional fluctuations, Xia Wanwan suddenly coughed violently, her face gradually lost its original color, and she vomited a mouthful of blood.
Huo Nanxiao, who had intended to leave and have Ye Su escort Xia Wanwan back, saw this scene and quickly went to Xia Wanwan's side.
"Cough, cough, I, I'm fine," Xia Wanwan said stubbornly, reaching out to try to push him away.
Huo Nanxiao was furious when he saw that your mouth was full of blood: "I'll take you to the hospital."
Before he had even finished speaking, he picked up Xia Wanwan from the wheelchair.
"No, no need. I don't want to trouble you anymore. You've already done enough for me. Just have Ye Su take me to the hospital." Xia Wanwan grabbed Huo Nanxiao's hand, not wanting to bother him.
Huo Nanxiao ignored her words, picked her up and quickly left the company, rushing off to find Tang En.
Tang En was also quite puzzled. It had been a while since Xia Wanwan's surgery was successful, and the medicine they used for her was the best and most expensive in the world. Logically speaking, Xia Wanwan's body should have recovered almost completely. Even if she wasn't fully recovered, after so much rehabilitation treatment, she should be able to stand up slowly and her body should be improving.
But things didn't seem to go as Tang En had expected. Xia Wanwan's body had taken a lot of medicine, but it had no effect. He even suspected that there was something wrong with his medicine.
After some treatment, Xia Wanwan's condition finally stabilized.
Tang En hoped that Xia Wanwan could be hospitalized so that he could have a thorough examination again, but Xia Wanwan refused.
"I have some things to take care of at home, so I won't be hospitalized," Xia Wanwan said firmly.
Don said, "It's dangerous for you not to be hospitalized like this. If you vomit blood again, you'll have to be brought back to me."
"I'll be careful and try not to let my emotions fluctuate too much." Xia Wanwan coughed as she held Huo Nanxiao's hand and said softly, "Nanxiao, take me home. I don't want to stay in this cold hospital. I want to go home. Staying here will only make my condition worse. I want to go back to my own home, back to my own room."
"good."
Huo Nanxiao carried her out of the hospital and took her home.
She was very weak, so Huo Nanxiao carried her upstairs himself.
Xia Wenhe and Zhou Fenglin were so excited when they saw this that their eyes lit up.
As a result, Huo Nanxiao simply took Xia Wanwan to her bed in the room, covered her with a blanket, and then turned and left.
Xia Wenhe wanted to invite Feng Jiuzhi to stay for a cup of tea, but Feng Jiuzhi completely ignored him and walked away quickly, leaving only a cold, indifferent back view.
"Strange, why is Young Master Huo ignoring us?" Xia Wenhe wondered.
Zhou Fenglin said, "Could it be that Wanwan made him angry?"
"I don't know, let's go upstairs and ask Wanwan what happened."
The couple immediately went upstairs.
Xia Wanwan lay weakly on her bed to rest.
Zhou Fenglin pushed open the door and entered, saying, "Wanwan, did you have a fight with Young Master Huo? Your father just greeted Young Master Huo, but he ignored him completely."
Xia Wanwan looked at her parents and said coldly, "Do you expect Nan Xiao to treat you well after all the shameful things you've done?"
"What shameful things are you talking about? What nonsense are you spouting, kid?" Xia Wenhe retorted.
Xia Wanwan said, "Father, you've been using the Huo family's name to swindle and bully others. Do you really expect Nan Xiao to treat you well after doing such a thing? How could you have the nerve to do something like this?"
Xia Wenhe's face stiffened, and he said angrily, "Nonsense! When have I ever done such a thing?"
"Nan Xiao already told me today that you used his future father-in-law's name to take out loans and borrow money, and poached a large number of business partners. Nan Xiao and I aren't even married yet, and you're already doing this kind of thing everywhere. He has a lot of opinions about this," Xia Wanwan scolded.
Xia Wenhe snorted coldly, not thinking he had done anything wrong. "You two are already engaged, and from now on we'll be family. What's wrong with me using his influence to make a statement? These days, doing business is all about connections. Without connections, how can we survive? If Huo Nanxiao is making trouble for you over such a small matter, it's clear he doesn't like you."
"Even now, Father still doesn't think he's done anything wrong?" Xia Wanwan was shocked.
Xia Wenhe said, "What did I do wrong? I am his father-in-law. My daughter, whom I have raised for so many years, is about to marry him. It is not wrong for me to use him to gain some benefits."
"Marry? Do you think I can really marry him? Today he's not only reminding me, he's also showing his disdain for me!" Xia Wanwan's voice became sharper.
