Chapter 981 The Fight Was Quite Fierce
Xia Ningxi didn't believe that the accident back then had nothing to do with Xia Luoluo.
Xia Ningxi sat in the car with the window open, enjoying the pleasant evening breeze, waiting for Huo Nanxiao to come out.
No one knows what Huo Nanxiao said to them inside the villa, but soon, Xia Luoluo stormed out and drove away.
Perhaps he was reprimanded by Huo Nanxiao?
Xia Ningxi didn't want to meddle in other people's business. She was a little sleepy, so she leaned back in the back seat and slowly closed her eyes. Just as she was about to fall asleep, someone knocked on the car window.
Xia Ningxi opened her eyes in surprise. A simply dressed maid stood by the car door, her face full of smiles.
"Dr. Xia, Mrs. Huo invites you in for a seat." The maid's voice was low and respectful.
The title "Mrs. Huo" left the driver and Ye Su speechless. They thought to themselves: How could this person be so clueless? Can't she see who the mistress of the Huo family is? The CEO is about to divorce Xia Wanwan, so what kind of mistress is she?
However, neither Ye Su nor the driver could say this aloud; they only knew that she wouldn't be able to keep her job for long.
As for Xia Ningxi, she didn't react to the title at all, and she didn't care what Xia Wanwan's current status was.
After getting out of the car, Xia Ningxi returned to the small villa, guided by a servant.
Seven or eight servants bent down to clean up the mess on the floor. Xia Wanwan was not idle either, and she cleaned up with the servants.
When she saw Xia Ningxi arrive, her expression became somewhat unnatural, and she apologized to Xia Ningxi with a hint of guilt: "I'm sorry, it's so late and I've made you come all this way for nothing."
"Is something the matter?" Xia Ningxi asked.
Xia Wanwan blushed, glanced at Huo Nanxiao, and remained silent.
Huo Nanxiao said, "This place has been almost completely destroyed, and Wanwan doesn't have a suitable place to stay. Tonight, I plan to take her back to Lanyuan to stay for the night, and I will send her away tomorrow."
Lanyuan is Huo Nanxiao and Xia Ningxi's marital home.
Huo Nanxiao had previously promised not to let Xia Wanwan move in.
Xia Ningxi did not give him an immediate reply.
Xia Wanwan thought she was angry, so she quickly explained, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean anything by it. It's just that I can't go back to the Xia family now. If I stay in other places, I will be disturbed by reporters. If I stay in other properties in Nanxiao, Uncle Huo will definitely be angry when he finds out."
Lan Yuan is your and Nan Xiao's marital home. Uncle Huo won't pay attention to it. If you agree, I'll stay there for one night, and I'll move out as soon as I find a suitable place to stay tomorrow.
She was practically begging Xia Ningxi on her knees, every word uttered with extreme grievance.
Her pitiful appearance made Xia Ningxi feel sorry for her.
Xia Ningxi said, "That's Huo Nanxiao's residence. You should ask him."
“As long as you agree, Nan Xiao will agree to let me stay at Lanyuan for one night,” Xia Wanwan replied.
Xia Ningxi smiled but didn't speak. She wasn't stupid. Since Huo Nanxiao had gotten Xia Wanwan to ask that question, it meant he had tacitly agreed to Xia Wanwan's suggestion. He simply wanted to use Xia Ningxi's words to justify bringing Xia Wanwan back to their marital home.
He still couldn't let her go.
"You can decide what to do with your villa," Xia Ningxi said to Huo Nanxiao.
As she expected, Huo Nanxiao still picked Xia Wanwan up tonight.
When they arrived, there were only Huo Nanxiao and Xia Ningxi in the back seat, but now there's Xia Wanwan too.
Xia Ningxi certainly couldn't be sandwiched between the couple, so she opened the passenger door and switched places with Ye Su.
Ye Su was so embarrassed that she scratched her toes on the ground, but she didn't dare to refuse and could only silently move to the back row.
Xia Ningxi remained silent the entire time, staring at the scenery outside the window. Realizing that this wasn't the way back to the Huo family's old residence, she asked the driver, "Where are we going?"
The driver said, "Back to Lanyuan."
“Take me back to the old house, then take them to Lanyuan. We won’t stay in the same place,” Xia Ningxi said.
The driver cast a questioning glance at Huo Nanxiao.
Huo Nanxiao said, "If you go back alone at this time, Dad will be suspicious."
“Then take me to a nearby hotel,” Xia Ningxi said again.
Huo Nanxiao: "Wanwan will stay one night and then leave."
"It's not like I'm not allowing her to live in your house. You can let whoever you want live in your house. But we're divorced now, and you dragged me out tonight. Of course, I can't go back to the same place as you."
Xia Ningxi distanced herself from the situation and said to the driver in a very firm tone, "Pull over and let me out."
"Young Madam, isn't this inappropriate?" the driver asked, somewhat worried.
Xia Ningxi's eyes were terrifyingly cold.
The driver had no choice but to stop the car.
Xia Ningxi got out of the car nimbly.
Huo Nanxiao was worried and said to Ye Su, "Go down and follow them."
"Okay." Ye Su ran off quickly; she didn't want to stay in the car for even a minute longer.
The two finally got into a taxi and drove off quickly.
Xia Wanwan felt very guilty: "I'm sorry for causing you trouble. If it weren't for me, Ning Xi wouldn't have left."
"I will arrange for someone to send you away tomorrow." Huo Nanxiao said calmly, showing no intention of trying to keep Xia Wanwan.
Xia Wanwan felt uneasy. When she arrived at Lanyuan, she was assigned a room that was very far away from Huo Nanxiao.
Although she had servants to take care of her 24 hours a day, Xia Wanwan could clearly feel that they were very indifferent to her. This indifference was directed only at Xia Wanwan. She remembered that these people were very attentive to Xia Ningxi.
She wanted to live with Huo Nanxiao, but she didn't know which room he lived in. She tried to ask the servants, but they didn't want to answer her at all.
Xia Wanwan may seem to be living in Lanyuan, but in reality, it's no different from being in prison. She even angered the servants by asking them about Huo Nanxiao's residence.
Aunt Zhang even told Xia Ningxi about this, but Xia Ningxi didn't pay any attention to it.
Xia Ningxi slept in a hotel for one night and returned to the Huo family's old mansion early the next morning, only to find the house empty and the child nowhere to be found. She asked the guards and learned that Huo Xiuyuan thought she and Huo Nanxiao were staying at Lanyuan and had sent the child there early that morning.
Upon learning that Huo Xiuyuan had also gone along, Xia Ningxi immediately sent a text message to Huo Nanxiao.
Huo Nanxiao: "Come to Lanyuan."
Xia Ningxi had no choice but to go to Lanyuan to find him.
When they arrived home, Huo Xiuyuan was already sitting down in Lanyuan, talking to Huo Nanxiao about something, clearly angry.
"Good morning, Dad." Xia Ningxi stepped forward and greeted him with a smile.
Huo Xiuyuan, who had been keeping a stern face, was surprised to see her: "Why are you back from outside?"
"I just went out for a walk," Xia Ningxi said.
Huo Xiuyuan: "Did you stay here last night?"
Xia Ningxi glanced at Huo Nanxiao, whose expression was calm and showed no intention of explaining. It was clear that he was keeping Xia Wanwan's stay at Lanyuan a secret.
Xia Ningxi lowered her gaze and replied, "Yes, I stayed here last night. Why did you suddenly ask that, Dad?"
"I thought you two didn't stay together last night." Huo Xiuyuan glanced around, not seeing any familiar faces. "I heard the Xia sisters got into a fight last night. Did you know about that?"
Xia Ningxi said, "I know. I even went to visit them last night. They were really fighting fiercely. After watching the excitement, Nan Xiao and I went home."
