Chapter 735 You Already Know
Huo Nanxiao knew that Xia Wanwan was not living a good life. Whether out of love or guilt, Huo Nanxiao could not let Xia Wanwan continue to be a laughing stock in everyone's eyes. What he wanted was for Xia Wanwan to live a peaceful life without being pointed at or gossiped about.
However, after what happened today, if Huo Nanxiao doesn't give Xia Wanwan a satisfactory answer, Xia Wanwan's future will be very difficult.
Huo Nanxiao decided to announce the wedding date today because of this.
Everyone was shocked by Huo Nanxiao. To be honest, they still didn't quite believe that Huo Nanxiao would really marry Xia Wanwan. They thought Huo Nanxiao was joking.
He turned around to look for Xia Ningxi, also wanting to see her reaction, but there was no sign of her anywhere; she had already left.
In an instant, everyone felt as if something was missing.
You look at me, I look at you.
"Wasn't Xia Ningxi just here?" Fu Mingyan looked around.
Duan Rongrong said, "Didn't you see? Didn't they just walk away right in front of you?"
Fu Mingyan: "Damn it, they were watching Xia Wanwan just now. I thought they would stay a little longer."
Duan Rongrong: "They left a long time ago. Xia Ningxi and Li Yancheng left together, holding hands."
Fu Mingyan: "How awful! Does she even know that Brother Nan Xiao is really going to marry Xia Wanwan!"
Duan Rongrong rolled her eyes, momentarily at a loss for words.
Of all the people present, Fu Mingyan was the one who was jumping up and down the most. She was so angry that she was about to explode on the spot. Her big, round eyes were staring intently at Xia Wanwan as she ran out crying to find help.
The people present had different feelings; some were happy, and some were sad.
However, most people are not optimistic about this relationship.
Xia Wanwan is too ordinary. Coupled with the Xia family's character, everyone can see what kind of people they are. Everyone knows it in their hearts.
Someone like her wouldn't even be able to get into an ordinary wealthy family, so how could Huo Nanxiao actually be interested in her?
Putting aside Xia Wanwan's character, even if she saved his life, this is still unacceptable. Everyone knows the true nature of Xia Wenhe's family, who have been clinging to the Huo family like a leech.
Those heiresses who fantasized about currying favor with the Huo family now thought Huo Nanxiao had lost his mind, and his business partners who knew him also thought it wasn't worth it for him to spend his whole life on someone with Xia Wanwan's family background.
But these were just people's thoughts; no one knew what Huo Nanxiao actually thought.
At this banquet, Xia Wanwan got what she wanted. As she expected, the news of their upcoming marriage spread throughout the capital city that very day. The wedding date was set, and countless people were discussing it.
Xia Ningxi left the banquet early, and less than half an hour later, she saw the news headline: Huo Nanxiao was getting married. The news quickly took over the front page and became increasingly popular.
To Xia Ningxi's surprise, someone would actually call her at this time.
"Miss Xia Ningxi, I am a reporter from the Imperial City News Agency. Are you aware that Huo Nanxiao is getting married? You two just divorced. Did Huo Nanxiao decide to divorce you because of Xia Wanwan's involvement? You've been married for so many years, why did things come to this?"
"Miss Xia, did he abandon his wife and children, and betray you and your child for Xia Wanwan? Are you afraid that Xia Wanwan will inherit the Huo family's wealth in the future?"
"Who will raise your three children? Will Xia Wanwan become their stepmother?"
The person on the phone bombarded her with questions, giving Xia Ningxi no chance to speak.
Xia Ningxi didn't tolerate it and hung up the phone directly.
Li Yancheng, sitting in the driver's seat, stopped the car as they approached the hospital entrance and asked, "Aren't you going to reply to them?"
"Why should we care?" Xia Ningxi asked back.
Li Yancheng: "You can take this opportunity to sever ties with Huo Nanxiao and cut all ties with him completely, so that his affairs won't involve you."
Xia Ningxi said, "Huo Nanxiao and I have three children. Huo Xiuyuan dotes on these three grandchildren. No matter what happens in the future, this matter will eventually involve me. It is impossible to completely clear things up."
Li Yancheng: "That's true. But since Huo Xiuyuan cares so much about you and these children, how could he agree to let you leave with nothing?"
Xia Ningxi looked at him: "You still expect me to take half of Huo Nanxiao's assets so that you can take the opportunity to attack his company?"
"Isn't this good?" Li Yancheng retorted, "His marriage to Xia Wanwan was already unfair to you. You should take everything that belongs to you. If I cause trouble for him and he goes bankrupt, it won't affect you at all. Not only that, you can also vent your anger, right?"
Xia Ningxi: "The Huo family's bankruptcy will not benefit my child at all. You wanted to promote Xia Wanwan to the top, and you've already achieved that goal, so don't waste your energy on me anymore. You know better than anyone that I won't listen to you, nor will I become a pawn in your hands."
"How can you be so sure that I'm using you as a pawn?" Li Yancheng asked.
Xia Ningxi sneered: "Isn't that right? There's absolutely no affection between us. You almost died at my hands last time, I don't believe you don't hold a grudge at all."
"You can be so ruthless to Xia Wanwan, leaving her no way to live, but you are so tolerant of me, someone you have a grudge against. I don't believe in true love. The only possibility is that you have something to gain, and what you want is something that no one else can give you, only I can give you."
Looking back now, all Li Yancheng did was to ruin Huo Nanxiao's reputation and leave him with nothing.
Disgraceful and ruined... Li Yancheng has pretty much achieved that. Huo Nanxiao's reputation is already bad, and his fiancée is even more disgraced and looked down upon by everyone.
But it would be too difficult to make Huo Nanxiao lose everything. Li Yancheng could only hope that his ex-wife, Xia Ningxi, would divide Huo Nanxiao's assets and weaken his power, so that he could find another opportunity to deal with Huo Nanxiao.
Unfortunately, Xia Ningxi had no intention of helping him.
Li Yancheng saw through it too, and he sneered: "How can you be so sure that I want to use you to deal with Huo Nanxiao?"
"Otherwise what? With your own abilities, you can't touch him at all, can you?" Xia Ningxi retorted.
Li Yancheng stopped laughing, and even seemed a little angry, probably because someone had hit a nerve.
Xia Ningxi was too lazy to argue with him any further, so she opened the car door and went into the hospital.
She was exhausted and went back to the hospital to relieve Tang En.
Tang En was scrolling through his phone when he saw that she looked upset and guessed it was because of Huo Nanxiao. He said, "Don't let trivial things affect your mood. You have many important things to do."
"You knew all along?" Xia Ningxi asked.
