Chapter 745 Illiterate, I'll Teach You
Without a doubt, Xia Wanwan wanted Huo Nanxiao's love. She knew very well that everything she had now was due to Huo Nanxiao, and without Huo Nanxiao's love, she was nothing.
Now, although Huo Nanxiao agreed to all of Xia Wanwan's requests and even arranged the wedding for her, he never took it to heart. He delegated everything to others, and despite being the groom, he seemed like an outsider.
It would be a lie to say I'm not upset.
Xia Wanwan also knew clearly that she was no longer in a position to make any demands. She was well aware of her status and position, and that being able to marry Huo Nanxiao was already a blessing she had accumulated over three lifetimes.
"Miss Wanwan, it's time for you to go," Ye Su couldn't help but remind her.
Xia Wanwan withdrew her gaze and smiled wryly, "Let's go."
Ye Su pushed the wheelchair and helped the person into the elevator.
Xia Wanwan said, "Nan Xiao cares a lot about the three children, doesn't he?"
Ye Su: "Of course, they are all the president's biological children. The president values them very much, and the Huo family patriarch and matriarch also cherish the children."
Xia Wanwan: "Yes, they all like these three children so much, it's understandable that they don't like me."
Ye Su: "Miss Wanwan, since you have chosen to be the president, don't expect too much. You have already gotten everything you wanted and have obtained the highest status and position. You are already much better than many people. People should learn to be content."
"Do you also think I'm ungrateful?" Xia Wanwan asked.
Ye Su: "What I think is not important; what matters is what others think."
Xia Wanwan fell silent. What could others possibly think? Was there even a need to ask?
Everyone in the entire capital city regarded Xia Wanwan as a disreputable third party, looking at her with disdain and not taking her seriously. They even insulted her in front of Huo Nanxiao. If Huo Nanxiao were not around, who knows how many more nasty things these people would say.
But she deserves all of this.
If you want to marry into a wealthy family, you always have to pay a price.
Xia Wanwan left sadly.
The children sat in the CEO's office, their gazes toward Huo Nanxiao growing colder and colder, filled with wariness and disdain.
For them, seeing Xia Wanwan in this place was truly unlucky.
As soon as Ye Su returned, Xingxing anxiously said, "Aunt Ye, please take us back to the hospital. We don't want to stay here."
"Go to the hospital? Are you sure?" Ye Su looked at Huo Nanxiao hesitantly.
Huo Nanxiao said, "Xia Ningxi doesn't have time to take care of you all, so you'll all be staying here today."
Xingxing said with disgust, "I don't want to! Some people have already sat on Daddy's sofa. It smells like green tea. I can't breathe, right, brother?"
Huo Yuan nodded: "No wonder my chest hurts, it turns out it's because of the air."
Chu Chu: "Aunt Ye, please take us there. When we get home, I'll ask Grandpa to give you a raise."
Ye Su was quite tempted.
But she was Huo Nanxiao's secretary after all, so she couldn't just ignore him, could she? She had worked for Huo Nanxiao for so many years and never thought about changing her boss.
"President, the children don't want to stay here. Do you think we should arrange for them to go to the playground downstairs so they can have some fun?" Ye Su suggested.
Huo Nanxiao: "No need. Go find a few suitable test papers for them and have them write them."
Star: "What!"
Huo Yuan: "No, let's not..."
Chu Chu: "I don't want to do my homework."
The three little ones were clearly agitated.
Seeing their discomfiture, Huo Nanxiao was inexplicably in a good mood and said to Ye Su, "Find a few more sets and have Secretary Zhao come over to tutor them."
"Okay, I'll go arrange it right away." Ye Su turned and left.
Xingxing jumped up from the sofa: "My stomach hurts, I need to go to the toilet."
Chu Chu: "Brother Xingxing, I also need to go to the toilet."
Xingxing: "Let's go together!"
Huo Yuan: "Then you guys go ahead, my stomach doesn't hurt, I'm not going."
As Xingxing winked at him, Huo Yuan didn't realize what she meant by winking. Just as he was about to ask her, Xingxing grabbed him and pulled him away.
"You need to go to the toilet too, you're in a hurry too!" Xingxing whispered.
Huo Yuan suddenly realized what was going on and, without saying a word, followed Xingxing to prepare to run away.
But Huo Nanxiao wasn't stupid; how could he not see that these kids were deliberately hiding?
"Stop!" Huo Nanxiao's voice was sharp, and his whole body was chillingly cold. "The restroom is on the left, not outside. Where are you going?"
Xingxing: "Let's go to the restroom outside the office."
Huo Nanxiao: "Come back."
The stars took off running.
Chu Chu ran very fast, darting away in the blink of an eye.
Seeing his younger siblings running so fast, Huo Yuan also quickly started running with his short legs.
Within seconds, Huo Nanxiao had brought the three little ones back, and they struggled, kicking their little legs.
Star: "Let me go."
Huo Yuan: "Daddy, let me go."
Chu Chu: "I don't want to do my homework, I don't want to."
Xingxing: "I want my mommy! I want my mommy!"
"I want Mommy, I want Mommy..."
"I want Mommy..."
The three little ones chattered away, their tiny, babyish voices constantly babbling.
Huo Nanxiao said coldly, "Shut up, all of you behave yourselves."
Xingxing: "No, Daddy, let me go."
Huo Nanxiao: "You're the most troublesome one of us. You're not going anywhere today."
Xingxing's face immediately fell.
In the end, the three little ones were forced to stay in Huo Nanxiao's office. He was quite ruthless as a father, giving each of them a set of test papers, and they were all different. He also had the secretariat select three top students to tutor the children, one student at a time, so that no one could escape.
The little ones kept whining, which eventually led to the president's office being filled with their complaints, as they drew circles and spoke ill of Huo Nanxiao.
Chu Chu: "You big bad guy."
Huo Yuan: "Shameless! Brainless!"
Xingxing: "Why doesn't he just do the test himself?"
Chu Chu: "Mind your own business, you're annoying."
Huo Yuan: "Uncle Tang En is the best, and Uncle Li is also good; he's a really nice person."
Xingxing: "Only Daddy is a bad guy."
Chu Chu: "That's right, brother, I don't know how to do this question. I can't read Chinese."
Star: "Illiterate, I'll teach you."
The three little ones, after arguing for a while, huddled together and started studying obediently. Although they often uttered some unpleasant words, the secretaries just let them go in one ear and out the other, as they didn't want to be scolded by Huo Nanxiao.
Anyway, the children were cursing Huo Nanxiao, which had nothing to do with them, so they just listened and didn't want to get involved.
The president's office was bustling with activity all afternoon, with many people coming and going, but no one bothered the three children.
When Fu Xiyu and Jin Mingxi came to Huo Nanxiao to hand over their work, they also saw the three children and took the initiative to greet them. The three little ones were busy studying and did not notice that an acquaintance had appeared.
Jin Mingxi smiled and walked over to Huo Nanxiao, sat down, and poured herself a cup of tea: "You've been quite concerned about these kids lately, even bringing them to work. You weren't like this before."
Huo Nanxiao: "You came all this way just to say this?"
Jin Mingxi: "Of course not, I'm here to discuss cooperation. Xi Yu has been busy trying to win over Xia Wenhe lately and hasn't had time to cooperate with me, so I just contacted you instead."
Huo Nanxiao: "I'm busy lately."
“I have time. You just need to invest your money and don’t think about anything else,” Jin Mingxi said.
Huo Nanxiao looked at him coldly: "Do you think I'm stupid?"
"We're all brothers, no need for formalities. Just invest your money, and when you make money in the future, I'll definitely help you out," Jin Mingxi asked with a smile.
Huo Nanxiao: "I have no money."
Jin Mingxi: "Others may not have money, but you absolutely cannot."
Huo Nanxiao: "Go stay wherever it's cool."
"Fine, I was going to wish you a happy marriage, but it seems there's no need for that now." Jin Mingxi snorted coldly, as if she was deliberately trying to make things difficult for Huo Nanxiao.
Huo Nanxiao remained silent, his attitude towards the marriage proposal very indifferent.
