Chapter 769 He kicked you away
Huo Nanxiao was already in a bad mood, and after hearing Ye Su's words, his face instantly darkened. He stared coldly at the woman in front of him, "You seem to have nothing better to do?"
Ye Su muttered to herself, "President, I'm doing this for your own good. We can't just keep dragging this on like this. The young mistress has a temper. If we appease her sooner, there probably won't be so many problems."
"Shut up," Huo Nanxiao coldly rebuked.
Ye Su obediently shut her mouth and dared not utter a sound.
Lanyuan.
Huo Nanxiao returned to his study.
The afternoon meetings were all changed to video conferences. Even though the senior executives couldn't see Huo Nanxiao in person, their arguing didn't diminish at all. They were all talking about Xia Wanwan and demanding an answer from Huo Nanxiao.
Huo Nanxiao had a headache and hung up the video call to leave the meeting.
Those old guys were all dissatisfied with Huo Nanxiao's attitude and kept calling him, demanding an answer from him.
Huo Nanxiao found it annoying and hung up on all the calls, regardless of who was calling.
Half an hour later, Helian Jue and Fu Xiyu appeared downstairs at Lanyuan.
Huo Nanxiao was surprised by their arrival and asked, "What do you want with me?"
Helian Jue said, "I have a detailed report on Li Yancheng's surveillance footage. Would you like to take a look?"
"No need," Huo Nanxiao refused.
Helian Jue: "Refusing so quickly? You must already know the answer."
"I just came from Li Yancheng's house," Huo Nanxiao said.
Helian Jue: "This guy has been scheming against you for so many years, and you're just going to put up with it?"
Huo Nanxiao remained silent with a gloomy face. What could he do? Li Yancheng held the only evidence in his hand. Even if Huo Nanxiao held a knife to his throat, as long as he refused to talk, who could do anything to him?
This guy did it on purpose.
Huo Nanxiao was seething with anger.
Fu Xiyu was somewhat worried: "It is indeed despicable that Li Yancheng maliciously concealed the truth, but this matter has nothing to do with Wanwan after all. As you have seen, Wanwan is also a victim. She was injured and can't remember what happened back then. Nan Xiao, you can't possibly take your anger out on Wanwan because of this, can you?"
"No," Huo Nanxiao replied.
Fu Xiyu breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good. The Xia Group has been having a lot of trouble lately. I just invested in and saved the Xia Group, but now that this has happened, I reckon the Xia Group won't last long. Are you planning to resume the cooperation between our two companies?"
"I don't plan to," Huo Nanxiao refused.
Fu Xiyu frowned: "What will happen to the Xia Group if we don't continue our cooperation?"
"That's their business, it has nothing to do with me. I've given the Xia family quite a lot over the years. If Xia Wenhe has the ability to keep the company running, then he can continue to survive in the capital. If he can't, then it's all his fate."
Huo Nanxiao had always been indifferent to Xia Wenhe's family. Over the years, he had done a lot for the Xia family, and he had already done everything he could. He could not let the Xia family trample on him and act arrogantly forever.
Fu Xiyu: "Why speak like two different people when we're all family?"
Helian Jue glanced at Fu Xiyu, his eyes showing a hint of surprise.
Sitting next to Helian Jue, An Yao said timidly, "We're not family at all. Xia Wanwan isn't Huo Shao's benefactor. Now that everything is clear, Huo Shao can't possibly still honor the marriage agreement, can he?"
"The two have even held a wedding ceremony. If they don't keep their marriage vows, how will Wanwan face herself in the future?" Fu Xiyu asked.
An Yao whispered, "She's an adult, she shouldn't lack even the most basic self-care abilities, right? Hasn't the doctor been taking good care of her lately?"
"Can they be the same?" Fu Xiyu asked.
An Yao: "Xia Wanwan isn't that fragile, is she?"
Fu Xiyu looked at the timid girl in front of him very seriously and said to Helian Jue, "You keep saying she's cowardly, but I don't see it at all."
Helian Jue: "Ayao is right. Xia Wanwan is an adult and she can't be so confused about right and wrong. She only had the opportunity to marry Nan Xiao because of the life-saving grace she owed to the Huo family. Now that everything is clear, Xia Wanwan should know to back out at this time if she has any sense."
"I heard that Xia Wanwan was once the top socialite in Kyoto. She should know that," An Yao added softly.
Fu Xiyu was speechless, and he looked at Huo Nanxiao: "You think so too?"
"We'll talk about Wanwan later." Huo Nanxiao didn't want to answer that question right now.
Fu Xiyu said, "Don't take their stance. You know Wanwan's current situation. If you reveal any bad information to the outside world at this time, someone will immediately cause trouble for Wanwan."
"As long as the Xia family doesn't accept any interviews, it won't have much of an impact," Huo Nanxiao replied.
Fu Xiyu's aura changed, and his gaze towards Huo Nanxiao was filled with complex emotions: "Are you serious?"
"Do you think I'm joking?" Huo Nanxiao retorted.
Fu Xiyu wanted to say something more.
Helian Jue coughed lightly: "Don't meddle in other people's business."
“How is this meddling?” Fu Xiyu retorted.
Helian Jue: "This is Nan Xiao's own business. Besides, if Xia Wenhe is incompetent, he shouldn't do business. Does he expect Nan Xiao to support his family for the rest of his life? You know Uncle Huo's attitude towards the Xia family. At this time, he will definitely break off the engagement."
An Yao: "That's right. Anyone with a modicum of sense knows that this marriage can't continue. Xia Wanwan is an educated person and wouldn't be so unreasonable. Maybe she herself wants to call off the engagement."
Helian Jue: "Hmm, what you said makes some sense."
Everyone understands this principle, and it's impossible for Xia Wanwan, an adult, not to know such a simple truth.
As for the consequences of breaking off the engagement with Huo Nanxiao, Xia Wanwan will have to bear them herself.
No one will protect her forever.
Huo Nanxiao's silence and refusal to publicly annul the engagement with the media is already a great concession to Xia Wanwan. Anyone in the Xia family with a modicum of sense should know what they should and shouldn't do at this time.
Without offering much explanation on the matter, Huo Nanxiao instructed Ye Su to keep her work online for the next few days and to refuse all media interviews. The company also instructed the public relations department to maintain good relations.
The public relations department will immediately intervene whenever there are reports of detrimental actions against the company and attempts to smear it.
However, they only protected the reputation of Yunting Group and the Huo family, and did not mention Huo Nanxiao and Xia Wanwan's marriage at all.
This worried everyone greatly.
With no other option, everyone had to go find Xia Wenhe's family.
Xia Wenhe was so anxious that he was running around like an ant on a hot pan. He called Huo Nanxiao hundreds of times but no one answered. When he went to the company to find Huo Nanxiao, he was told that he was not there. He wanted to go to the Huo family to find him, but he was afraid that he would be kicked out.
Xia Wenhe could only turn to Xia Wanwan and ask her to come up with a solution.
"You need to contact Huo Nanxiao immediately and urge him to get the marriage certificate. In this situation, only by getting the certificate can we protect the Xia Group and your reputation," Xia Wenhe urged Xia Wanwan.
Xia Wanwan was still lying in the hospital bed, her expression somber: "He won't."
Xia Wenhe: "What do you mean he won't? You've already had your wedding, he can't just kick you to the curb, can he?"
