Chapter 971 I don't know whose child it is either
Xia Wanwan had witnessed her younger sister's shamelessness before, and was too lazy to argue with her. She smiled, remained silent, and turned to look out the window, exuding arrogance.
What Xia Luoluo disliked most was Xia Wanwan's aloofness. She sneered, "What are you pretending for? I saw through your little scheme? I know you don't want me to get involved with the Huo family, but we're in the same boat. If I'm not doing well, you won't be doing much better."
Xia Wanwan said, "Think whatever you want, I can't control what you want to do, but I'm warning you, anything you do in the future has nothing to do with me, don't try to make me take the blame for you again, I won't help you anymore."
Xia Luoluo snorted coldly: "Don't take yourself too seriously. Huo Nanxiao doesn't take you seriously either. You're making it sound like the whole Xia family depends on you."
Xia Wanwan felt uncomfortable and said with a straight face, "He really doesn't take me seriously, so don't expect me to be able to help you in the future."
"Of course not." Xia Luoluo's attitude was very firm.
Xia Wanwan: "Oh, right, there's one more thing. Huo Nanxiao just mentioned divorce to me. You'd better think it through. What will happen to the child in your belly after my divorce from Huo Nanxiao?"
"Divorce?" Xia Wenhe jumped up: "Who gave you permission to divorce? You can't get a divorce!"
Xia Wanwan said, "He remembers Xia Luoluo's schemes against Huo Nanxiao very clearly. Does Father still naively think he's a sucker who can be manipulated by us? He's wanted a divorce for a long time, but he's only dragging it out for my sake."
Xia Wenhe: "No, if you get divorced, we won't have anything to hold Huo Nanxiao back. He doesn't like this child either. If in the end your sister has to raise him alone, then we're doomed."
Xia Wanwan said, "You can decide for yourselves. Anyway, I've done all I can. If Huo Nanxiao insists on getting a divorce, there's nothing I can do. Luo Luo is a capable person, and I'm sure she can live a smooth life without me having to explain."
"Are you threatening me?" Charlotte was furious.
Xia Wanwan said, "You're carrying Huo Nanxiao's child. Who would dare threaten you? I'm just reminding you to think carefully about the consequences before doing anything. My feelings for Huo Nanxiao have long been worn down, and he no longer has the patience he once had for me. You'll have to walk your own path in the future. Whether you live or die is none of my business."
At this moment, Xia Wanwan only wanted to completely sever ties with Xia Luoluo.
She found this younger sister terrifying and didn't want to be dragged down by Xia Luoluo anymore.
Xia Luoluo, however, felt that Xia Wanwan was deliberately making trouble for her, and said, "Are you trying to distance yourself from me at a time like this because you want to set up your own household and live the life of a wealthy socialite? Don't forget who you owe your success to. Without me, you are nothing."
Xia Wanwan: "I have nothing to say to you."
Xia Luoluo: "Heh, what are you pretending for? When the child is born, he will still call you 'Auntie'. After you inherit the Huo family's business, you won't be treated badly. I advise you to be sensible and not cause trouble for no reason."
Xia Wanwan felt suffocated like never before. Unable to continue negotiating with Xia Luoluo, she opened the door and jumped out of the still-moving car.
The driver was so frightened that he immediately slowed down.
Xia Wanwan had already hailed one of the taxis and gotten in.
"Wanwan, what are you doing!" Xia Wenhe called out to her excitedly.
Charlotte said, "Father doesn't need to pay attention to her."
Xia Wenhe said angrily, "Why are you making her angry?"
Xia Luoluo scoffed, "Am I wrong? Does she really think she's still the top socialite she used to be, and that everyone has to listen to her? I'm pregnant, and she's a beneficiary too. Look at her, who does she look down on? Does she think she's something special?"
"Alright, stop talking. It wouldn't be good if others heard that," Xia Wenhe quickly stopped him.
Xia Luoluo: "Let's go, don't pay any attention to her."
Xia Wenhe sighed helplessly, "You know that Huo Nanxiao looks down on you. Right now, the Xia family still needs your sister to maintain relationships. You should show more respect to Wanwan in the future. If she really gets divorced, you won't get anything."
"She wouldn't. She finally managed to squeeze Xia Ningxi out, how could she possibly get a divorce? All those high-minded things she says are just for show. Others may not know, but do you think I don't?" Xia Luoluo said dismissively.
After leaving the Huo family's old mansion, the father and daughter immediately returned to the Xia Group to hold a press conference, where they publicized the pregnancy.
Within half an hour, all the major headlines were filled with gossip about Xia Luoluo and Huo Nanxiao.
The Huo family's phone was ringing off the hook.
Huo Xiuyuan was very annoyed. "Unplug the phone line."
The housekeeper immediately ran to unplug the telephone line, and the house finally became a little quieter.
Huo Xiuyuan rubbed his temples, and when he glanced at Huo Nanxiao, the anger he had just suppressed surged up again. He picked up the teacup on the table and smashed it towards Huo Nanxiao's head.
Huo Nanxiao astutely dodged the question and asked, "What are you doing?"
"You still have the nerve to ask? Look at the mess you've made, you're a disgrace!" Huo Xiuyuan cursed.
Huo Nanxiao said, "I will handle it. You don't need to worry about it."
Huo Xiuyuan snorted, "The door is practically trampled to pieces, and you're telling me to ignore it? What are people outside saying about our family? Don't you have eyes to see? I just don't understand. Xia Wanwan is disgusting enough, yet you can still bring yourself to lay a hand on Xia Luoluo. Have you lost your mind?"
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, so he simply used both hands to grab the teacups on the table and smash them at Huo Nanxiao one after another.
Qu Huilan quickly shielded the children and stepped aside, scolding, "That's enough, the children are still here."
Seeing the three little ones pitifully hiding two meters away, Huo Xiuyuan's anger subsided somewhat. He said to Huo Nanxiao, "If the children weren't here watching, I would have beaten you to death today."
Huo Nanxiao was too lazy to explain, so he had a servant bring over a new tea set and personally brewed tea for Huo Xiuyuan.
Huo Xiuyuan wasn't in the mood for drinking and cursed, "Get out."
Huo Nanxiao put down the teapot and said, "The child in Xia Luoluo's belly is not mine, so you don't need to pay attention to what people outside say. However, I don't want to publicize this matter for the time being. Let's see what they want to do."
"Not yours?" Huo Xiuyuan's eyes lit up. "Then whose child is it?"
Huo Nanxiao said, "I don't know."
Huo Xiuyuan: "Are you kidding me? Everyone in the entire capital knew when you two were having sex."
Huo Nanxiao said, "It was arranged by the Han family; it would be hard for outsiders not to know."
"Han Musen plotted against you?" Huo Xiuyuan's face darkened.
If that's really the case, this matter should indeed be considered carefully, because the Han family must have a backup plan. It might not be a good thing for them to expose Xia Luoluo rashly.
