Chapter 1034 Tsk tsk, so tough.
Huo Nanxiao wasn't angry at all and calmly replied to Ling Shuang, "What you said seems to be right, but it also seems wrong. Double marriage is not recognized in China. At least when your older brother registered his marriage with Xia Ningxi, she hadn't divorced me yet. So, how long she can be your sister-in-law is still unknown. There's no need to draw conclusions too early."
Ling Shuang was amused by these words; "President Huo is really good at making excuses for himself. Does he think that just because he divorced Xia Wanwan, your marriage can still stand? Xia Ningxi definitely won't get back together with you. Xia Luoluo is much better. If you're willing, you can live a comfortable life with her."
Huo Nanxiao did not reply.
Ling Shuang glanced at Xia Wanwan beside her and continued, "If you don't like Xia Luoluo, you can choose Xia Wanwan. She loves you so much, you two will definitely be a match made in heaven."
"Miss Ling is joking. Nan Xiao and I are just friends now. Who he chooses and who he is with is his own business," Xia Wanwan denied with a smile.
Ling Shuang said, "Haven't you ever thought about bigamy with him? Or does he dislike that you can't have children? If it's the latter, you can simply adopt Xia Luoluo's child. We're all family, there's no need to be so clear about it. Do you think I'm right?"
"No. Luo Luo's child is Luo Luo's, and I won't fight her for the child. As for the Huo family, as long as there is blood relation to the Huo family, the child is a Huo family child. Although Xia Ningxi is married to your older brother, the child is still a Huo family child. You should both know this." Xia Wanwan took the initiative to defend Huo Nanxiao.
This attitude left Ling Shuang completely bewildered.
Ling Shuang was surprised: "I didn't expect you to think that way."
Xia Wanwan: "Let's just discuss the matter at hand."
"Since you're so reasonable, why would you scheme against Xia Ningxi's child before? Aren't you two-faced? No wonder you're with Huo Nanxiao; you two are the same kind of people." Ling Shuang mocked her sarcastically.
Xia Wanwan wasn't angry. She said calmly, "Miss Ling seems to care a lot about me? What are you worried about? No matter what conflicts I have with Xia Ningxi, it doesn't change the fact that we are family. As for you, you have nothing to do with Xia Ningxi, so please don't meddle."
"Tsk tsk, so tough?" Ling Shuang couldn't help but laugh. "Why aren't you this tough when it comes to your good sister? Do you think Xia Ningxi is easy to bully? No wonder she cut ties with your family, and you can only get together with someone like Xia Luoluo."
These words left Xia Wanwan utterly humiliated. She clenched her fingers tightly, suppressing her dissatisfaction.
Seeing her angry but unable to speak out, Ling Shuang snorted coldly and turned to leave.
After closing the car door, Ling Shuang said to the driver, "Let's drive, this place is too unlucky."
"Yes, miss." The driver stepped on the gas.
Xia Ningxi asked, "What did you say to them just now? They both seem quite angry."
Ling Shuang: "I didn't say anything, I just can't stand seeing petty people get ahead."
"I'm sorry for causing you trouble," Xia Ningxi said.
Ling Shuang shrugged indifferently: "This has nothing to do with you. I'm not saying it's causing you any trouble. I just simply look down on Xia Wanwan's character. Although her experience was quite tragic, I know that she ended up like this because she was too stupid."
She was, after all, the eldest daughter of the Xia family, and once enjoyed immense prestige. If she had lived a peaceful life, she wouldn't be in this state now. But Xia Wanwan didn't do that; instead, she aided and abetted evil. She truly deserved it.
Xia Ningxi sighed helplessly: "He certainly deserved it."
Xia Wanwan ruined a perfectly good hand of cards, doesn't she deserve it?
Perhaps Xia Wanwan already knows she was wrong, but it's unknown whether Huo Nanxiao will forgive her and get back together with her.
Xia Ningxi looked out the car window. The car had driven away from the laboratory, but Huo Nanxiao and Xia Wanwan were still standing there.
As she looked at the two of them, they were also looking at her.
Only after he had completely disappeared did Xia Wanwan take the initiative to ask, "Did I cause you any trouble today?"
"No," Huo Nanxiao denied.
Xia Wanwan said, "If it weren't for me, Ling Shuang wouldn't have verbally attacked you. I can tell that Ling Shuang doesn't like me."
"This has little to do with you," Huo Nanxiao denied.
Xia Wanwan smiled bitterly: "Even now you're still lying."
Huo Nanxiao didn't want to continue the topic. Seeing that she had come alone, he asked her, "Did you come to Lingcheng alone?"
"Mm." Xia Wanwan nodded.
Huo Nanxiao said, "Where do you live? I'll take you back."
"Just take me to the nearest hotel," Xia Wanwan replied.
Huo Nanxiao said, "Your father also lives nearby."
“No, don’t send me to him. I don’t want to see him right now.” Xia Wanwan immediately rejected Huo Nanxiao’s suggestion.
Huo Nanxiao's face turned cold: "You live alone in Lingcheng?"
"It's okay, I can take care of myself," Xia Wanwan replied.
Huo Nanxiao said, "Your health hasn't fully recovered, so you should go back to the capital."
"You really want me to go back?" Xia Wanwan questioned.
Huo Nanxiao said, "You really shouldn't have come here. Staying won't do you any good. As for Xia Wenhe, he came to Lingcheng to take care of Xia Luoluo. Since he doesn't have time to take care of you, you don't need to stay either."
"I see, so I'm that unpopular. Everyone can hate me, but I thought you wouldn't." Xia Wanwan's voice was very desolate.
Huo Nanxiao was speechless for a moment.
It was already dark, and Xia Wanwan was indeed unwell, so Huo Nanxiao couldn't bear to leave her alone in this unfamiliar city.
"Get in the car," Huo Nanxiao said.
Xia Wanwan was slightly surprised: "You really want to give it to me?"
"The Huo family has invested in several hotels in Lingcheng. I'll take you there," Huo Nanxiao said.
Xia Wanwan was very happy and quickly got into Huo Nanxiao's car.
The hotel is in the city center and is very luxurious.
After arranging accommodation for her, Huo Nanxiao was about to leave.
"You don't live here?" Xia Wanwan asked subconsciously.
Huo Nanxiao said, "The children are still waiting for me at home. I have to go back tonight."
“That’s true. These children are still young. Ning Xi went to the Ling family and we don’t know when she will be able to go back. It would be better if you were by their side.” Xia Wanwan was somewhat lost and dejected, her head bowed very low.
However, upon closer inspection, it's not hard to see that her eyes are moist, as if tears are welling up.
Huo Nanxiao saw it, but instead of comforting her, he sighed helplessly in his heart and said, "Go back early and take good care of yourself."
"Okay, I know. Be careful on the road." Xia Wanwan nodded.
Huo Nanxiao left without a moment's hesitation, without looking back.
Xia Wanwan couldn't help but shed tears when she saw this scene; she cried very hard.
