Chapter 761 It really was you!
Xia Ningxi didn't want to be the one to break up the couple. Who knew that Huo Nanxiao might end up blaming her for everything? She didn't want to continue being the scapegoat.
"No way!" Huo Xiuyuan rejected Xia Ningxi's suggestion, angrily saying, "That woman doesn't deserve it? You'll only let me have their way if I die."
Xia Ningxi didn't know what to say for a moment, so she simply ignored it and said, "Then you can do whatever you want."
She didn't want to stay here and confront anyone; she just wanted to leave this place of trouble as soon as possible. "Tonight's matter has been resolved. I have other things to do, so I'll take my leave now."
"Where are you going? This matter hasn't been resolved yet." Huo Xiuyuan stopped Xia Ningxi, not wanting her to leave at this time.
Xia Ningxi said, "You can handle the rest yourselves."
She glanced at Huo Nanxiao, said nothing more, opened the door, and walked out.
The atmosphere inside the private room was so oppressive that she could hardly breathe. The moment she stepped out of the room, Xia Ningxi finally felt a sense of relief; she had never felt so relaxed in her life.
As they went downstairs, the guests were still there. Perhaps they were puzzled to see only Xia Ningxi coming out of the private room, so they all walked up to her.
"Miss Xia, where are Mr. Huo and Young Master Huo?" someone asked.
Xia Ningxi said, "They have some personal matters to attend to, and they will be out in a little while."
A guest asked, "Will the Huo family break off the engagement? Judging from Huo Shao's expression, he seems to be protecting Xia Wanwan. Will he agree?"
"These are all Huo family matters. I'm just an outsider, and it has nothing to do with me." Xia Ningxi said calmly, not wanting to comment further on the matter.
She has already cleared her name, and how the Huo family treats Xia Wanwan in the end is no longer her concern.
Fu Mingyan said, "How can you be an outsider? You are the eldest daughter-in-law of the Huo family, Xia Wanwan is nothing!"
"I've already divorced Huo Nanxiao, and we've got the divorce certificate. So don't bring it up again. What he and Xia Wanwan do has nothing to do with me." Xia Ningxi said seriously.
Fu Mingyan said, "You got divorced because Xia Wanwan was causing trouble. She deceived everyone. Now Xia Wanwan's true colors have been exposed. Uncle Huo will definitely not allow Xia Wanwan to enter the Huo family. You can go back to the Huo family. You can't let that woman who is full of lies move to another place."
Xia Ningxi smiled and said to Fu Mingyan, "Perhaps you can try."
As for her, there's no need for that.
Xia Ningxi has seen through Huo Nanxiao, and whether or not she gets back together with him is no longer important.
She didn't want to stay here, nor did she want to discuss Xia Wanwan with everyone. At this moment, Xia Ningxi just wanted to leave this place, to leave this place of trouble.
Li Yancheng hadn't left. When Xia Ningxi walked out of the banquet hall, she saw Li Yancheng explaining things to several journalists.
Perhaps seeing Xia Ningxi come out, a hint of surprise flashed in Li Yancheng's eyes. He gave a few instructions to the person beside him and then quickly walked towards Xia Ningxi.
"You're out?" Li Yancheng glanced behind Xia Ningxi, but there was no one there. He was surprised: "Huo Nanxiao didn't come out with you?"
"Do you really want him to come out with me?" Xia Ningxi asked in return.
Li Yancheng said, "I don't want him to come out. If he doesn't come out, it's the same as staying behind to clean up Xia Wanwan's mess. I don't know if that sickly guy is really unwell or faking it, but he fainted at the crucial moment. He really timed it perfectly."
"Thank you for tonight." Xia Ningxi was very grateful.
Li Yancheng said, "If you really want to thank me, you might as well consider my previous suggestion. Being with me is no worse than being with Huo Nanxiao. Moreover, I don't have any improper relationships with the opposite sex, and I don't have any mistresses outside. I'm much better than Huo Nanxiao. If you're willing, I only have one request: the three children must take my surname."
"You wish." Xia Ningxi rolled her eyes at him.
Li Yancheng said, "It's just a surname, what's the use of you guarding it so tightly? If you listen to me, you can at least provoke Huo Nanxiao."
"If you knew everything, why did you still slander me in the first place?" Xia Ningxi questioned her.
Li Yancheng: "You believe whatever I say? You're all just too stupid. What does this have to do with me?"
"You—" Xia Ningxi's lips twitched; sometimes she really wanted to hit someone.
Her hands tightened, she held back her anger, and said, "You've been waiting for this day for a long time, haven't you? All that slander and accusations against me was to solidify Huo Nanxiao's determination to marry Xia Wanwan, so that you could humiliate him in this situation and make him lose face. You've done everything you planned. I'm curious to know what you're going to do next."
“I want to see what Huo Nanxiao is willing to do for Xia Wanwan.” Li Yancheng didn’t hide anything from her, his thoughts drifting back to a few years ago, “Back then, he could disregard other people’s thoughts and lives. Will he be able to kick Xia Wanwan aside so easily this time?”
"Impossible." Xia Ningxi denied it decisively.
Li Yancheng narrowed his eyes: "How can you be so sure?"
Xia Ningxi: "Because Xia Wanwan is different from others, Huo Nanxiao may not care about anyone's life or death, but he will never stand idly by for Xia Wanwan."
"Is that so?" A hint of murderous intent flashed in Li Yancheng's eyes.
Xia Ningxi saw through his intention and said, "Huo Nanxiao almost died at your hands back then, right? Although I didn't find your figure in that video, I'm sure you're the mastermind behind it all."
"Yes." Li Yancheng readily agreed.
Xia Ningxi's whole body turned cold: "So, you were the one who attacked me back then?"
Li Yancheng: "I don't know what you're doing."
"Still lying? It was you who did it! I couldn't understand what grudge we had before, but now that I think about it carefully, I understand. You said the gunshot wound on your chest was inflicted by me. I couldn't figure out when we had such a big grudge, but today I understand." Xia Ningxi took a step closer to Li Yancheng. "It was you who did it."
"Heh, where's the evidence?" Li Yancheng asked.
Xia Ningxi said, "I was on the ship the night Huo Nanxiao had the accident, and I also happened to be injured during that time. Who else could it be but you?"
"You should go home and take care of the kids." Li Yancheng quickly changed the subject, then got into the car at an astonishing speed.
"It really was you!" Xia Ningxi's teeth were itching; this guy ran so fast, he was obviously guilty.
No wonder she couldn't remember anything, but Li Yancheng knew everything. It was all his doing!
