Chapter 624 What's the Panic?
Xia Ningxi's explanations were clearly useless in front of Han Musen.
Han Musen stood up from his seat, walked over to Xia Ningxi, looked down at her face, and said, "You say you didn't do it? Where's the evidence? We have evidence to prove that you pushed Xia Wanwan into the sea. Do you have evidence to prove your innocence?"
“I have no evidence.” Xia Ningxi paused slightly before continuing, “But I think you should have evidence.”
Han Musen was amused by Xia Ningxi. He looked at the person in front of him carefully and said with a smile, "Xia Ningxi, have you lost your mind? I've already said that you were the one who pushed Xia Wanwan into the sea back then, and there's video evidence. Are you still not convinced? Do you want me to lie and find some false evidence for you?"
"Then tell me, why would I want to harm Xia Wanwan?" Xia Ningxi retorted.
But it was this very question that stumped Han Musen.
This was the first time Han Musen had ever seen someone as shameless as Xia Ningxi. She had personally pushed Xia Wanwan into the sea, and yet she still asked why.
"Why are you asking me what you did? Are you crazy?" Han Musen retorted.
Xia Ningxi wasn't angry. She said, "I want the surveillance footage of Xia Wanwan when she had the accident. I think Li Yancheng has it, and you should have it too."
"Hasn't Huo Nanxiao already found out? He has it himself, so you can just ask him for it. There's no need to ask me specifically." Han Musen didn't want to give it to Xia Ningxi and directly pushed everything onto Huo Nanxiao.
He knew that Huo Nanxiao had investigated the events of that year and found concrete evidence to prove that Xia Wanwan was pushed into the sea by Xia Ningxi.
Huo Nanxiao also had the surveillance footage of the incident; otherwise, he wouldn't have been so cruel to Xia Ningxi back then.
Why would Huo Nanxiao personally bring Xia Ningxi to investigate this matter now? What have the two discovered?
Han Musen became suspicious, but he also knew what he could say and what he couldn't.
Xia Ningxi: "I want all the surveillance footage from the day Xia Wanwan had the accident, the footage from the 24 hours prior. You should have that."
"I don't have such a thing," Han Musen immediately denied.
Xia Ningxi said, "You just don't want to give it to me, do you?"
Han Musen found it quite amusing: "Where would I get 24-hour surveillance footage? I wasn't even at the scene when it happened, so I don't know anything about what you're saying. But I don't think you need to investigate at all. After all, it's all your own doing. If you were willing to use your brain and think carefully, you couldn't pretend to be so innocent."
"Why not investigate something I didn't do?" Xia Ningxi's hand tightened slightly.
She was very angry!
She knew Han Musen was lying, but she didn't know how to get him to talk.
Huo Nanxiao saw all of this. At first, he only suspected that Li Yancheng was intentionally concealing the truth of what happened back then. But today, when he came and heard Han Musen also accuse Xia Ningxi, it further confirmed his suspicions.
Neither Han Musen nor Li Yancheng told the truth.
It's even quite possible that they blamed everything that happened back then on Xia Ningxi.
Otherwise, the two could not have been so in agreement.
As the sun hid behind the western mountains, darkness enveloped the sky, and night fell. Huo Nanxiao had lost all patience.
Huo Nanxiao didn't touch the red wine offered by the beautiful girl with a delicate fragrance. His dark eyes gleamed dangerously in the night, and a chill seemed to surround him, making those around him feel breathless.
Han Musen sensed the inexplicable pressure and said, "Nan Xiao, I have told you everything you wanted to know. It was indeed Xia Ningxi who pushed Xia Wanwan into the sea back then. There is evidence to prove this. She was just trying to make a last-ditch effort. If you believe her, then pretend I didn't say anything. If you believe me, that would be best."
"I've already gotten what I wanted, so I won't keep you company any longer. I've booked the entire island; you're free to do whatever you want."
After leaving a few words, Han Musen prepared to depart.
"Stop." Huo Nanxiao said slowly.
Han Musen stopped in his tracks: "Is there anything else?"
Huo Nanxiao curled his thin lips: "What I want is the whole truth."
"That's all I know," Han Musen replied.
Huo Nanxiao sneered and walked step by step toward Han Musen, saying, "If this is really all you know, you wouldn't have sent people to attack Helian Jue's men, preventing him from investigating the truth of what happened back then."
Han Musen denied it: "I have a grudge against Helian Jue, so it's not a big deal for my men to fight a little."
"Still not telling the truth?" Huo Nanxiao's eyes were dark, and his voice was deep: "I have no patience to listen to your nonsense."
Han Musen's expression, which had been quite polite, gradually turned cold. His good temper vanished in an instant. He even said to Huo Nanxiao with a hint of provocation, "Don't forget whose territory this is. I'm telling the truth, and that's the truth. Instead of wasting your time arguing with me, you should think about how you're going to get back. I have no intention of letting you leave here alive."
As Han Musen's voice fell, Han Youling had already led a group of people over, and dozens of thugs surrounded the two of them.
Huo Nanxiao glanced around indifferently and sneered, "Looks like you're really tired of living."
"Even now you're still so arrogant. Do you really think this imperial city is your domain? How laughable." Han Musen mocked Huo Nanxiao while giving Han Youling a look.
Han Youling smiled charmingly, her slender fingers lazily tugging at her long hair hanging by her ear, and said with a smile, "Young Master Huo, we had already sealed off the entire island before you even landed. This villa will be destroyed by a fire in ten minutes. Young Master Huo will die in the fire. I've even thought of the headline for you."
Her bright and dazzling smile turned fierce and ferocious after her voice fell: "Back then, the Han family was the most powerful and influential family in the capital. Because of you, the Han family has fallen into ruin. Now, it's time for the world to change!"
Han Youling gave her subordinates a wink, and dozens of thugs rushed toward Huo Nanxiao in unison!
What they want is Huo Nanxiao's life!
"Walk!"
Xia Ningxi grabbed Huo Nanxiao and ran!
At a time like this, how could she dare to linger here any longer? Seeing a fire escape to her side and rear, she ran into it without thinking.
Huo Nanxiao frowned, somewhat unwilling.
"What are you standing there for? Do you want to be burned alive?" Xia Ningxi shouted at him as she saw that the group of thugs had caught up.
Huo Nanxiao said, "What's the panic?"
"?" Xia Ningxi's mind went blank for a moment. "Besides the driver, there were only two of us who came? You forgot?"
Where does this guy get such confidence?
The entire island is under Han Musen's control. Once that guy gets what he wants, he'll surely try to wipe out Huo Nanxiao.
If we kill this fat sheep, the imperial city will surely fall into the hands of Han Musen and his gang!
Did Huo Nanxiao not realize how tempting his life was to them?
