Chapter 1005 A Pleading Look
Xia Wenhe was furious. Xia Luoluo didn't admit it, but he could tell that Xia Luoluo must have done it.
But at this moment, Xia Wenhe could do nothing. He couldn't even show that he knew about it, for fear of being discovered by someone with ulterior motives.
Xia Wanwan is already divorced and has lost Huo Nanxiao as her support. The only person she can rely on is Xia Luoluo. As long as Xia Luoluo successfully gives birth to the child in her womb, they can use the child to gain greater benefits.
Thinking of this, Xia Wenhe forcibly suppressed his dissatisfaction: "Don't let anyone find out."
After leaving those words, Xia Wenhe hurriedly headed towards the emergency room.
"Has Wanwan not come out yet?" Xia Wenhe questioned.
Ellie stood at the door, looking at him coldly: "Doctors aren't gods, they can't bring the dead back to life. Your daughter is already dead, and you think you can cure her just by having a doctor come along? You're overthinking it."
"You're cursing her!" Xia Wenhe was furious.
Ellie said, "I'm reminding you to face the facts."
"Hmph, I won't stoop to your level. Just tell Tang En that you must save my daughter. We'll pay whatever it takes to cure her," Xia Wenhe quickly added.
Ellie was amused by this: "That's hilarious. You can afford any amount of money? Did Huo Nanxiao give you all the assets and businesses of your Xia family? We don't even care about the Huo family, let alone you. You really know how to flatter yourself. If it weren't for Xia Ningxi's sake, even if your whole family knelt down and begged us, it wouldn't do any good."
"You, you're so vulgar!" Xia Wenhe was furious.
Ellie sneered, "Sometimes being able to recognize the truth is a skill, but unfortunately you lack self-awareness."
Xia Wenhe: "I won't argue with a servant like you."
"Ha, you're right. Someone who rose to power by selling his daughter isn't worth my time," Ellie retorted fiercely.
Xia Wenhe was so choked up that he couldn't speak coherently. At that moment, all he wanted to do was curse, but with so many guests around, he didn't dare to utter a curse no matter how angry he was.
The others simply smiled and remained silent, not taking the argument to heart. Mainly, they didn't consider Xia Wenhe a serious matter; their focus was entirely on Xia Wanwan. They just wanted to know her current situation; nothing else mattered.
The rescue operation continued into the night, and some people couldn't hold on any longer and left one after another. Soon, there weren't many people left at the banquet.
Huo Nanxiao dismissed the unimportant people, telling them to go back and rest, while he stayed outside to watch over Xia Wanwan.
Fu Mingyan couldn't hold on any longer and pulled Fu Xiyu to leave.
Fu Xiyu said, "If you're sleepy, go back first. I want to wait a bit longer."
“There’s no use you staying outside; you can’t help anyway. Go back first,” Fu Mingyan said.
Fu Xiyu: "No, Wanwan is in great danger right now. Someone needs to stay outside and watch over her. If she needs help, I can help her if I'm here."
"Doesn't she have her own family? Why is your brother so nosy? Huo Nanxiao is standing right here, who are you to judge?" Fu Mingyan retorted sarcastically.
Fu Xiyu was not happy, but no matter what Fu Mingyan said, he just wouldn't leave, which made Han Youling very anxious.
Of all the people present, Han Youling was the one who most wanted to leave this awful place. She dreamed of escaping, but a group of people were watching her and wouldn't let her leave, so she could only sit there helplessly.
"If none of you want to leave, then let me go. It's the middle of the night, and I need to sleep even though you're not sleeping," Han Youling said angrily.
Huo Nanxiao said quietly, "Even when facing death, they still have the mood to sleep. The Han family's sense of ease is truly beyond the reach of ordinary people."
"Heh, it wasn't me who harmed Xia Wanwan, of course I can sleep soundly. On the contrary, you don't even use your brain to think about why Xia Wanwan would be so desperate. If you hadn't insisted on divorcing Xia Wanwan and leaving her with nothing, would she have done such a stupid thing?" Han Youling questioned.
The crowd erupted in an uproar.
"Divorced? What divorce?" Fu Mingyan's eyes lit up as she questioned Han Youling, "You mean Nan Xiao and Xia Wanwan are divorced?"
"Yes, you didn't know about something this important?" Han Youling retorted.
Fu Mingyan really didn't know!
Han Youling said, "Xia Wanwan's health was already poor. She lost a kidney in a car accident, and her body was already broken. Huo Shao must have disliked Xia Wanwan, which is why he secretly divorced her, right? Her despair is probably largely related to Huo Shao."
This completely pinned all the blame on Huo Nanxiao, portraying Xia Wanwan as a pitiful creature who couldn't have the love she desired.
Ji Feibai asked in a low voice, "Nan Xiao, are you really divorced?"
Fu Xiyu: "Why didn't you tell us something so important? Was Wanwan's fall not an accident, but something she couldn't do?"
"Of course, it's because Xia Wanwan couldn't think straight. She finally recovered and was able to stand up like a normal person and marry the man she loved. But Huo Shao didn't care about Xia Wanwan at all. He married her, played with her until he was tired of her, and then kicked her aside. Of course, she couldn't bear this shock," Han Youling replied.
Huo Nanxiao chuckled: "If you want to clear your name, you need to find a suitable excuse. Wanwan and I have been divorced for some time now. If she really couldn't accept it, she wouldn't have dragged it out until now. It seems you still don't want to tell the truth. No problem, I have plenty of ways to make you confess honestly."
In an instant, Lu Qi and his men subdued Han Youling.
Han Youling screamed in shock, "What are you doing? Let me go!"
"Miss Han, save your energy, you'll have a lot to complain about later." Lu Qi sneered.
"I am the eldest daughter of the Han family! What do you want to do to me? Let me go, you bastards, let me go, do you hear me?!" Han Youling shouted angrily.
Lu Qi didn't even glance at her, and swiftly tied her up and dragged her away.
Han Youling was terrified. "Huo Nanxiao, what do you mean? I didn't touch Xia Wanwan. What right do you have to arrest me? Tell your men to release me, or don't blame me for being impolite."
Lu Qi splashed cold water on her face and sneered, "Why don't you take a piss and see what kind of person you are? You think you can be rude to Young Master Huo? Even if your brother came, it wouldn't make a difference. All the guests who came today entered through the main entrance in a proper and open manner, but you were the only one who stole small things. In my opinion, you are the one who harmed Xia Wanwan."
"You're talking nonsense!" Han Youling cursed.
Lu Qi said, "Still not behaving properly, looks like we'll have to resort to torture."
"How dare you!" Han Youling exclaimed angrily.
Lu Qi: "If you dare to kill someone to silence them, why shouldn't we?"
Han Youling was so angry that she trembled all over. She never expected that her playful visit to see the excitement would lead to her being framed like this. She felt so wronged that she wanted to cry!
But she couldn't implicate Xia Luoluo, and most importantly, she had no evidence.
What should we do? Should she just accept it?
Huo Nanxiao would have to skin her alive!
That bitch Xia Luoluo, why didn't she warn me beforehand that she was going to harm Xia Wanwan? If Han Youling had known she was up to something tonight, she wouldn't have come. But it's too late for regrets now; she can only cast pleading glances at Xia Luoluo.
