Chapter 736 Let Grandpa Beat Daddy to Death
Tang En saw Xia Ningxi's helplessness and said, "It's on the news, it's hard not to know. This might be unacceptable to others, but you're different. You have your own job, you can support yourself and your three children, and you have a stable income. Even without Huo Nanxiao, you can live a good life. Don't let some unimportant people affect your mood."
"Yes, you're right. Don't let some unimportant people affect you," Xia Ningxi murmured to herself.
Tang En: "Good that you understand. Come and take a look at Lin Jiangbei's recent medical report."
He handed the report to Xia Ningxi and said very seriously, "This situation is very bad. I have sent all the data to the teacher for review. He is still considering our suggestions. What is certain is that even if he comes in person, he may not be able to cure Lin Jiangbei's illness. But we can try our best. If we are lucky, we may really be able to save his life."
"It must be very difficult, right?" Xia Ningxi asked with a serious expression.
Don nodded: "That's inevitable, but in our line of work, when haven't we faced enormous challenges?"
Xia Ningxi smiled. Yes, after studying so hard for so many years, what they've been doing is snatching people from the clutches of death, haven't they? How can they give up just because it's difficult?
"Is anyone from the Ling family at the hospital? I'd like to talk to them," Xia Ningxi asked.
Tang En: "Ling Shuang is keeping watch in the ward."
"Okay." Xia Ningxi took the medical report and went to the ward.
The Ling family had pondered Lin Jiangbei's illness for a long time. They were actually quite afraid and had been traveling around the world to find renowned doctors, but in the end, they had not received the answer they wanted.
Ling Shuang had given up hope. She said, "I'll do whatever you want. I'll agree to whatever surgery you want to perform on Lin Jiangbei. However, I hope you won't tell Jiangbei's mother too much. She's been mentally unstable lately because of Jiangbei, and I'm worried she won't be able to handle it."
"Understood. Don't worry, we'll coordinate with you on everything from now on and try to avoid Mrs. Tian." Xia Ningxi said earnestly.
Ling Shuang's heart was relieved. She said to Xia Ningxi very seriously, "Although I know it is not appropriate to say these things at this time, I hope you will not let your personal matters affect my brother's treatment. He is still young, and I do not want him to pass away like this. I hope you can find the best way to save him."
Xia Ningxi: "Don't worry, we have all received professional training. Even if the sky falls, it won't affect the treatment of Lin Jiangbei."
"Thank you. As compensation, I can grant you one request: if you cure Lin Jiangbei, I can deal with Huo Nanxiao for you. I've inquired and found out that Huo Xiuyuan has two sons. Besides Huo Nanxiao, he has another son named Huo Jinchuan. His company is also very promising, and it's said that Huo Jinchuan has a good relationship with you."
“I’ve inquired about Huo Nanxiao and Xia Wanwan. They really went too far. If you can’t swallow this, I can negotiate with Huo Xiuyuan to hand over this project to Huo Jinchuan.”
Ling Shuang took the initiative to suggest it, which could be considered as giving Xia Ningxi face. She hoped to give Xia Ningxi some confidence to retaliate, so as to improve Xia Ningxi's mood and not affect Lin Jiangbei's treatment.
Actually, he was trying to please Xia Ningxi.
That's unnecessary.
Xia Ningxi replied very seriously: "Your cooperation has nothing to do with me. We are just patients. There is no distinction between who is stronger and who is weaker. Now that you are in the hospital, no matter what the Ling family does, it has nothing to do with me. I am only responsible for the patients. Even if you do nothing, I will do my best to save Lin Jiangbei."
Ling Shuang fell silent, her expression complex: "So you really intend to tolerate Xia Wanwan's situation?"
"Huo Nanxiao and I divorced amicably, and he gave me custody of all three children. I have nothing to be angry about. He simply chose the person he wanted to choose. If I were to harbor resentment and seek revenge just because I wasn't chosen, my life would be too difficult. I don't want to make things difficult for myself, nor do I want anyone to stand up for me." Xia Ningxi's voice was very firm.
Ling Shuang didn't know what else to say.
That night, Xia Ningxi kept watch over Lin Jiangbei.
Xia Ningxi didn't return home until dawn the next day, after a consultation with specialists.
It was already noon when we arrived at the Huo family's old residence. The house was in a mess, with debris everywhere. Everything had been smashed, and a group of servants were squatting on the ground cleaning up.
"Was our house burgled?" Xia Ningxi asked, puzzled.
The butler smiled wryly: "Master saw the news this morning and smashed some things in a fit of anger. Young mistress, don't worry, the house is safe and there was no burglary."
"I see. Then... what about Huo Nanxiao?" Xia Ningxi asked cautiously.
The butler said, "Young Master Huo has left."
"Are you alright?" Xia Ningxi asked again.
The butler said, "Master did try to stab him with a knife earlier, but Young Master Huo had something to do and dodged it without getting hurt. He then drove away in a hurry."
Xia Ningxi nodded and didn't ask any more questions, but she guessed that Huo Xiuyuan's anger wouldn't subside anytime soon. She estimated that Huo Xiuyuan would cause trouble for Huo Nanxiao again after he returned home that evening.
The father and son were bound to have a tough battle, and Xia Ningxi didn't want to get involved, so she decisively told the housekeeper, "I'm taking the child out this afternoon, and we won't be staying at home tonight."
"Is it appropriate for you to leave now, young mistress? The master is furious. If you leave with the child, he might tear Young Master Huo apart." The butler was very worried. "Why don't you stay a few more days? It wouldn't be too late to leave after things have calmed down?"
Xia Ningxi forced a smile: "It's better for me to leave now. Don't tell anyone."
She quickly went upstairs to pack her luggage.
Xia Ningxi didn't have much stuff, so she packed it up quickly. As for the children's things, there wasn't much to pack either, since they would come back to visit their grandparents from time to time.
Xia Ningxi called the children who were playing in the playground on the back mountain back and carried their little schoolbags on their backs one by one.
Xingxing asked, "Mommy, where are we going?"
“We’re going to Uncle Tang’s house. He’s been in the hospital for the past few days, so no one’s home. We’ll stay at his house for a few days,” Xia Ningxi replied.
Xingxing said, "Is it because Daddy is going to marry Xia Wanwan that Mommy is moving us?"
"Daddy's getting married?" Huo Yuan looked up in disbelief.
Xingxing said seriously, "That's right, the news is out. Daddy is going to marry that bad woman. We'll soon be kids without Daddy."
Huo Yuan's eyes reddened: "How could Daddy do this!"
Xingxing: "Daddy originally wanted to marry Xia Wanwan, which makes sense."
Chu Chu looked worried: "What should we do? Should we tell Grandpa and make him beat Daddy to death so we can inherit all his wealth? I heard Daddy is very rich, we could never spend it all in our lifetime!"
