Chapter 705 How many people respect her?
Fu Xiyu was speechless after being choked by Ji Feibai's words, and looked at Huo Nanxiao with a dark face: "Don't you have anything to say?"
"No." Huo Nanxiao replied coldly.
Fu Xiyu said with some dissatisfaction: "You know very well how bad Wanwan's situation is right now. You shouldn't ignore her at a time like this. If I were you, I should protect Wanwan instead of letting others bully her."
"And then?" Huo Nanxiao asked back.
Fu Xiyu frowned: "You actually have the nerve to ask 'then what'?"
Huo Nanxiao said, "The Xia family doesn't only have Xia Wanwan. If it were just her, of course I could protect her. But have you thought about what the other members of the Xia family have done?"
Fu Xiyu's heart skipped a beat.
In fact, they all knew that Xia Wenhe and Zhou Fenglin had been using the Huo family's influence to find investors over the years, with elements of threats and deception involved.
Many people cooperate with Xia Wenhe only because of Huo Nanxiao. If they didn't want to get in touch with Huo Nanxiao, they wouldn't bother with Xia Wenhe at all.
The socialites and socialites in the capital city probably wouldn't even bother to give them a second glance, so how could Xia Wanwan possibly be the number one socialite?
If word gets out, people will laugh at us to death.
Even though they all knew all this, they still couldn't suppress the turmoil in their hearts: "Even so, since you chose Wanwan, then you are also family with Wanwan's family. Since you are family, you have to accept each other's strengths and weaknesses. Wanwan's parents are a bit excessive, but they are, after all, a small family. How can they establish themselves in the capital city without these means?"
Huo Nanxiao said, "I have never lacked a single penny from the Xia family. I provided Xia Wenhe with most of the projects. They don't know what's good for them. What else can I say?"
“That’s right, Xiyu, you can’t always blame Nanxiao,” Ji Feibai chimed in.
Fu Xiyu said, "Don't interrupt."
Ji Feibai said, "If you dislike it so much, in my opinion, why don't you just buy the Xia Group outright? Anyway, Xia Wenhe is already on the verge of bankruptcy. If you invest 1 billion or 2 billion in him now, he can recover."
“No.” Fu Xiyu refused.
Jin Mingxi added, "I think Fei Bai is right, you're not short of money."
“You all know about the relationship between my father and Uncle Huo, don’t you?” Fu Xiyu retorted.
Fu Yanghui and Huo Xiuyuan have an excellent relationship, and Huo Xiuyuan has already made it clear in the industry that anyone who helps Xia Wenhe now is going against Huo Xiuyuan. Basically no one in the industry dares to make a move at this time. If Fu Xiyu helps Xia Wanwan's family at this critical juncture, Fu Yanghui will immediately receive the news and may even take his anger out on Xia Wanwan.
In the current capital city, everyone is on edge. Even those who used to cooperate with Xia Wenhe are now avoiding him like the plague. Everyone in the capital city is trying to distance themselves from him. Fu Xiyu cannot show his face at this time.
Fu Xiyu said, "I can't move right now, but Nan Xiao can. Wanwan is Nan Xiao's fiancée and the heir of the Huo family. Even if Uncle Huo says something unpleasant, as long as Nan Xiao can withstand the pressure, there is still a way to resolve this matter."
"I think you're overthinking it." Jin Mingxi shook his head: "The old man doesn't like Xia Wanwan. No matter what Nan Xiao does, he just doesn't like her."
Ji Feibai nodded: "That's right, it's all because Xia Wanwan is unlikable. She's Xia Ningxi's older sister. Knowing that Xia Ningxi is married to Nan Xiao, she still keeps bothering Nan Xiao. Anyone would feel uncomfortable in that situation."
Helian Jue: "All you're saying is that she's trying to steal your sister's boyfriend and become a shameful mistress. Let alone the old man looking down on her, how many people in the entire capital city would even consider her?"
That last sentence was absolutely vicious. If Xia Wanwan heard it, she would probably cry into her blanket for days.
However, Helian Jue didn't care what Xia Wanwan thought at all. Anyway, she wasn't here, and even if she were, Helian Jue would still have the same attitude.
Everyone chuckled and didn't offer much explanation on the matter. However, whether or not she was a mistress or not, it wasn't entirely Xia Wanwan's fault. If Huo Nanxiao hadn't given Xia Wanwan a chance and publicly announced their relationship, there wouldn't have been so much trouble.
To put it bluntly, the responsibility lies entirely with Huo Nanxiao.
If he truly loved Xia Wanwan, he shouldn't have married Xia Ningxi in the first place. If he loved Xia Ningxi, he should have insisted on their marriage, instead of making one mistake after another, abandoning his wife and child, and then putting Xia Wanwan to death.
No matter how you look at it, the fault lies entirely with Huo Nanxiao.
Ji Feibai couldn't help but ask, "Nan Xiao, what are you really thinking? Uncle Huo only has eyes for Xia Ningxi and the three children. If you insist on being with Xia Wanwan, you will definitely pay a heavy price. I estimate that everything in the Huo family will eventually fall into Huo Jinchuan's hands. That kid has been stealing your business quite a bit lately."
"I know." Huo Nanxiao downed a glass of wine.
Ji Feibai asked, "What do you plan to do?"
"Wait a little longer," Huo Nanxiao replied.
Ji Feibai: "Are we still going to wait? If we wait any longer, Xia Ningxi will probably run off with that doctor. I heard that Tang En poached her to his lab and gave her an astronomical salary. There's no such treatment in China. Xia Ningxi is the first to receive it!"
"Nan Xiao, are you really willing to let Xia Ningxi go abroad? If she is poached by someone else, it will be difficult for you to bring her back in the future. There is no guarantee that your three children will not recognize you in the future."
Ji Feibai was clearly gloating when he said this.
Helian Jue laughed and said, "I don't think he needs to go abroad. I guess his three children won't pay any attention to him now."
“You guessed right.” Jin Mingxi smiled and said, “Last time I saw three children at Yunting Group, they were all very friendly and cute when they talked to me, but when they turned around and saw Nan Xiao, they all changed their attitude faster than turning the pages of a book. If they didn’t look like Nan Xiao, I would really doubt that they were his biological children.”
"Tsk tsk, pathetic," Helian Jue mocked.
Huo Nanxiao's temples throbbed, and he asked impatiently, "Have you said enough?"
"Not yet. Come on, have some wine." Ji Feibai poured wine for Huo Nanxiao, not wanting Huo Nanxiao to leave in anger as soon as he arrived.
After knowing each other for many years, who wouldn't want to kick a friend when they're in trouble? Especially since it's Huo Nanxiao, and they still have so many hurtful things to say to each other!
Huo Nanxiao knew they were there to watch the show, so he didn't say anything more. He just kept drinking until he was completely drunk. He sat in a corner without saying a word, and he couldn't hear anyone talking to him. He didn't know how long it took before he remembered that he still had several children at home to take care of. He stood up shakily.
"I'm going back." After leaving those words, he departed, still drunk.
Ji Feibai quickly called out to him, "Where are you going?"
“The child is at home, I need to go back and look after him,” Huo Nanxiao replied.
Jin Mingxi: "You can't even walk steadily, how can you go back? I'll have the driver take you."
"No need," Huo Nanxiao refused.
But the first thing he did after getting in the car was to call Xia Ningxi and ask her to come pick him up and take him home.
