Chapter 308 Don't Hurt Her
The sea breeze was strong, and the cruise ships docked in the harbor were bobbing on the sea. The piercing wind howled across Xia Ningxi's cheeks, causing some pain. At first, she thought it was because she was too cold, which was why she was shivering all over, but she soon realized that wasn't the case.
The pain, which almost numbed her entire body, came from the blade in Han Musen's hand, which had pierced her clothes and torn her flesh, and blood was gushing out uncontrollably.
He committed the murder.
Huo Nanxiao's eyes turned bloodshot with rage after discovering Xia Ningxi was bleeding. He roared, "Don't hurt her! I promise you, I'll give you anything you want. Put the knife down!"
Han Musen asked skeptically, "Really?"
"I mean what I say!" Huo Nanxiao said without hesitation.
A hint of surprise flashed in Xia Ningxi's eyes.
Han Musen was also surprised that Huo Nanxiao would agree. He glanced at Han Youling.
Han Youling immediately ran to get the agreement and had Huo Nanxiao sign it.
Xia Ningxi stared intently at Huo Nanxiao's hand holding the pen. She knew how important Mindong was to Huo Nanxiao. Even when Han Musen threatened Huo Nanxiao with Xia Wanwan's life or death, he still refused to give up the Mindong project to Han Musen.
So, will Huo Nanxiao sign for her?
To Xia Ningxi's surprise, Huo Nanxiao actually signed it.
He signed the contract almost without hesitation.
Then, Huo Nanxiao said to Han Musen, "Let her go."
Han Musen glanced at the three powerful characters on the contract and smiled slightly: "I have suddenly changed my mind. I not only want Min Dong, but also Xia Wanwan. I will exchange Xia Wanwan's life for her."
"Don't push your luck!" Huo Nanxiao was furious.
Han Musen said, "I told you, you can only choose one between her and Xia Wanwan."
"Apart from Xia Wanwan, I can agree to any request." Huo Nanxiao said with a serious face. Giving the Mindong project to Han Musen was already the biggest concession he could make.
But Han Musen was not satisfied at all. He not only wanted money, but also wanted Huo Nanxiao to live in misery for the rest of his life. With a wave of his hand, he pushed Xia Ningxi off the three-story cruise ship.
Xia Ningxi never expected that Han Musen would be so ruthless. The moment she fell, she almost instinctively reached out and grabbed Han Musen's clothes.
Han Musen frowned, and by the time he realized what was happening, Xia Ningxi had already pulled him down.
Bang--
Two splashes of water.
Han Musen never dreamed that he would be dragged down with Xia Ningxi.
The two fell from a height of nearly ten meters, splashing up a large amount of water. The huge impact made it impossible for them to open their eyes.
Xia Ningxi's mind went blank. Seawater kept pouring into her ears. She watched as Huo Nanxiao jumped into the sea from the cruise ship and swam towards her, while the other passengers on the cruise ship, seeing Huo Nanxiao and Han Musen fall into the water, jumped in to save them...
A sudden, sharp pain shot through Xia Ningxi's brain. For some reason, the scene before her seemed strangely familiar...
She was in so much pain that all her strength seemed to be drained away, and she slowly sank into the sea.
As for Han Musen, who was being pulled by Xia Ningxi, he wanted to climb onto the lifeboat immediately. When Xia Ningxi sank into the sea, she also pulled Han Musen down with her, and Han Musen was also dragged into the sea.
Han Musen cursed angrily and turned to swim towards Xia Ningxi, who had sunk into the sea. As he reached out to grab Xia Ningxi's waist and pull her up, he did not notice that Xia Ningxi had already grasped the dagger that had sunk into the water.
*Pfft*
Almost instinctively, she plunged the dagger into Han Musen's shoulder.
Han Musen's eyes widened in disbelief, and he pushed Xia Ningxi away with all his might...
Xia Ningxi's head was throbbing with pain. The excruciating pain in her brain made her forget to struggle. She slowly sank down, and her breathing stopped at that moment.
Am I about to die?
Perhaps...
But what about my child?
Just then, a strong, powerful hand suddenly wrapped around Xia Ningxi's waist, pulling her into its embrace.
Xia Ningxi snapped out of her intense pain and saw that the person holding her was Huo Nanxiao. A look of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she was suddenly pulled to the surface by Huo Nanxiao.
Lu Qi immediately led his men to the rescue.
Huo Nanxiao held the unconscious Xia Ningxi in his arms and called her name several times, but she did not respond. He immediately remembered to give Xia Ningxi artificial respiration.
Xia Ningxi vomited a lot of seawater and woke up, but the sharp, needle-like pain in her brain had not disappeared.
Huo Nanxiao carried the ice-cold Xia Ningxi to the car without looking back, found one of his own coats and draped it over her shoulders, then immediately turned the heater to its maximum.
"Wait for me in the car for a moment." After saying that, Huo Nanxiao closed the car door.
At this moment, Han Youling was helping Han Musen, who had been stabbed, and was preparing to take him to the hospital. When she saw Huo Nanxiao walking over angrily, Han Youling immediately stood in front of Han Musen.
"What...what do you want to do?" Han Youling's voice trembled with fear.
Huo Nanxiao ignored her and punched Han Musen in the face.
Han Youling shouted anxiously, "Someone, stop him quickly!"
Upon hearing this, Han's subordinates immediately rushed forward to try to stop Huo Nanxiao, but before they could even get close to him, they were blocked by Lu Qi and the others, and a stalemate ensued.
At this moment, Huo Nanxiao was like an enraged beast. With a few punches, Han Musen's face swelled up and blood was still dripping from the corner of his mouth.
Han Musen was also furious and fought back, but Huo Nanxiao grabbed his collar. He could only curse, "Huo Nanxiao, if you have the guts, then kill me."
"You think you're worthy to dirty my hands?" Huo Nanxiao said coldly.
Han Musen sneered: "Dare not?"
Huo Nanxiao said, "Since I promised to give you the Mindong project, why would I hurt Xia Ningxi?"
Han Musen raised an eyebrow: "You're actually so worried about her? It seems she does hold a place in your heart. If I had known this would happen, I should have gotten rid of her from the beginning."
A layer of ice formed in Huo Nanxiao's dark eyes. Without any hesitation, he pulled the dagger out of Han Musen's shoulder and, with a slash along Han's right hand, severed Han Musen's tendons in an instant.
Han Musen's expression changed drastically.
"Don't let me see you again."
Huo Nanxiao left in anger.
The Han family rushed forward to help Han Musen.
Han Youling shouted anxiously, "Ambulance! Call an ambulance!"
After that, the group of people quickly saw Han Musen off.
Huo Nanxiao walked quickly to his car, where the heater was on. Xia Ningxi had already fallen asleep in the back seat. Huo Nanxiao drove to a nearby hospital.
Xia Ningxi had a lower back injury, but fortunately it wasn't serious. The doctor quickly treated her wound, but Xia Ningxi remained unconscious, and Huo Nanxiao stayed by her side in the ward the whole time.
