Chapter 814 What are you afraid of? I've got your back.
Xia Wanwan never expected that Huo Nanxiao would still secretly keep tabs on Xia Ningxi's movements even after they had been divorced for so long.
"Are you going abroad to find her?" Xia Wanwan mustered up her courage to ask.
Aside from this incident, she really didn't know what else could have made Huo Nanxiao travel so far.
Huo Nanxiao did not answer her question. "You should go back. I have a lot of work tonight, so I won't stay with you."
"You... went abroad just to find her?" Xia Wanwan asked again.
Huo Nanxiao looked into her eyes and said, word by word, "Wanwan, do what you're supposed to do."
Clearly, he didn't want Xia Wanwan to meddle in his affairs.
This sentence confirmed Xia Wanwan's suspicion: Huo Nanxiao was going to find Xia Ningxi.
Even after the divorce, and even if Xia Ningxi completely disappears from his city, he will still uncontrollably keep up with news about her.
Xia Wanwan's heart ached uncontrollably, but she forced a smile: "Okay, I'll take good care of myself, you don't need to worry."
"I'll have the driver take you home." Huo Nanxiao didn't want to explain too much.
"Okay." Xia Wanwan didn't cry or make a fuss, behaving very obediently. Before leaving, she said, "If you regret marrying me, you should tell me in advance so I can be mentally prepared."
Huo Nanxiao did not answer.
As Xia Wanwan left the office and closed the door, tears streamed down her face uncontrollably, soaking her pants.
Seeing this, Ye Su was also confused and whispered to comfort her, "Miss Xia, are you alright?"
"I'm fine. Could you help me up and walk around a bit?" Xia Wanwan asked cautiously.
Ye Su stepped forward, helped Xia Wanwan up from her wheelchair, and led her a few difficult steps.
"I'm so useless, I still need someone to help me up." Xia Wanwan smiled bitterly.
Ye Su: "Miss Xia is already very outstanding, after all, you are the president's wife."
"Really? But Uncle Huo doesn't agree to let me join the family, and I can't accept being called the president's wife." Xia Wanwan smiled bitterly.
Ye Su: "For every gain, there is a loss."
"That's true. If it weren't for Nan Xiao's help, I might be homeless by now," Xia Wanwan said with a wry smile.
She was well aware of her situation. To Huo Nanxiao, she might just be a pitiful person in need of help, but to Xia Wanwan, Huo Nanxiao was her everything.
Huo Nanxiao can abandon her at any time without any impact on him, but once she loses Huo Nanxiao's protection, her status and position will plummet, and even the Xia family will fall into ruin.
Xia Wanwan was a little dazed: "Nan Xiao is leaving the country tomorrow, right?"
"Yes." Ye Su was somewhat surprised.
Xia Wanwan asked, "Is he going to see Xia Ningxi?"
"It's for company matters," Ye Su replied.
Xia Wanwan smiled silently: "You don't need to hide it from me. Actually, I know everything. I just don't understand it."
“Miss Wanwan, you don’t need to think too much. The most important thing for you right now is to take care of your health, not to overthink things. The president has his reasons for everything he does,” Ye Su said.
That statement is actually clear enough.
Huo Nanxiao's affairs are none of her business as an outsider.
Although Xia Wanwan felt uncomfortable, she knew that Ye Su was right.
After leaving Yunting Group in disappointment, Xia Wanwan made a phone call to Fu Xiyu.
"Could you help me find out where Xia Ningxi lives?" Xia Wanwan asked cautiously.
Fu Xiyu asked in surprise, "Didn't she already go abroad? Why did you suddenly think of asking about her?"
"She is, after all, my sister. It must be very tiring for her to raise three children alone. I want to know if she is doing well." Xia Wanwan's voice was very gentle.
Fu Xiyu: "Don't worry, Tang En is protecting her, and with her abilities, she can thrive wherever she goes."
"Can you help me check?" Xia Wanwan persisted.
Fu Xiyu asked in a deep voice, "Did Nan Xiao go to see her?"
"No, don't overthink it," Xia Wanwan immediately denied.
Fu Xiyu breathed a sigh of relief: "Xia Ningxi is in a classified unit, so it's very difficult to find out her whereabouts. Even if I were to investigate, I might not be able to find out. However, she should be within the Desla continent, because Don's laboratory is located there."
"Okay, I understand, thank you." Xia Wanwan was very grateful.
But after hanging up the phone, she felt incredibly heavy-hearted.
Desla...
Huo Nanxiao had previously been on a business trip here, and his itinerary for tomorrow was also to travel to Texas.
Xia Wanwan thought it was unlikely that he went abroad for work; he could have easily delegated the work to someone else.
Why must you go in person?
Could it be that he really isn't going to find Xia Ningxi?
Xia Wanwan wasn't sure.
But based on her understanding of Huo Nanxiao, this time Huo Nanxiao was probably after Xia Ningxi.
She still decided to call Xia Ningxi, but no one answered...
Xia Wanwan couldn't sleep all night because of this.
Xia Ningxi had no idea that because of Li Yancheng's photo, both Huo Nanxiao and Xia Wanwan were kept awake all night.
She doesn't have to go to work, and her life is incredibly comfortable.
Although Li Yancheng was always hanging around in front of her and was quite an eyesore, she couldn't resist the fact that he always brought a bunch of delicious food whenever he came over, and it all suited her taste. So she started to find Li Yancheng much more agreeable.
But Xia Ningxi just couldn't understand what this guy was trying to do.
After Li Yancheng visited for the third time, Xia Ningxi finally couldn't help but ask the question that had been bothering her: "What exactly is the purpose of you hanging around in front of me every day?"
"Does one have to have a ulterior motive to get close to you?" Li Yancheng retorted.
Xia Ningxi: "I can't be sure about others, but you definitely are."
"Hmph, what could I possibly want from you? I was just bored, and since you were bored too, that's why I came to find you," Li Yancheng explained.
Xia Ningxi: "Every time you come to my house, you take pictures with your phone. Who do you send them to?"
“Of course, he’s your ex-husband.” Li Yancheng didn’t hide anything from him.
Xia Ningxi's lips twitched. Now she understood why Li Yancheng had been coming to her house so frequently.
"Did you send him the photos to anger him to death? Don't make him come knocking on your door. Even though we're divorced, you know his personality well. He can't tolerate any nonsense."
Xia Ningxi knew Huo Nanxiao's personality all too well. Even if she got divorced, Huo Nanxiao would absolutely not allow Li Yancheng to get close to her; Huo Nanxiao would go crazy.
That guy is terrifying when he goes berserk.
Li Yancheng didn't care at all: "So what? They can't do anything to me."
"He can't do anything to you, but have you ever thought that he might cause trouble for me?" Xia Ningxi retorted.
Li Yancheng: "This area is all my territory. Huo Nanxiao can't come in without my permission. Don't worry, if you're going to work, I can pick you up and drop you off in a car, and I guarantee no one will bother you."
Xia Ningxi was speechless: "I think you're deliberately causing trouble."
"What are you afraid of? I've got your back." Li Yancheng shrugged indifferently, not feeling at all that there was anything wrong with what he was doing.
Xia Ningxi was truly impressed by him.
