Chapter 282 Help Me Leave Him
Everyone was very curious about Xia Ningxi's identity.
They had known Huo Nanxiao for so many years and knew about Huo Nanxiao and Xia Wanwan's past, but they had never heard of the name Xia Ningxi.
If it weren't for Han Musen's recent actions, they wouldn't have known that Xia Ningxi had such a past with Huo Nanxiao and that she had secretly given birth to Huo Nanxiao's son.
How could they not be shocked when their only child suddenly became a twin?
With a broad smile, Ji Feibai asked Xia Ningxi, "Miss Xia, we are all very curious, when did you meet Nan Xiao?"
Everyone else looked over and pricked up their ears to listen.
Xia Ningxi said, "We've known each other since we were little."
Song Xiaoqing said, "Nan Xiao and I grew up together. How come I've never seen you before?"
Jin Mingxi also said, "I've known Nan Xiao for twenty years, but I've never seen you before."
Xia Ningxi said, "I've never seen you before either."
The two were rendered speechless by Xia Ningxi's words.
Xia Ningxi didn't know why Huo Nanxiao had brought her to this kind of dinner party. She glanced around and saw that there was only one other girl besides her, but strangely, that girl kept her head down and didn't say anything, while the others could only chatter nonsense with Xia Ningxi.
Xia Ningxi was quite annoyed.
She had already decided that she would leave after finishing her meal.
Midway through the meal, Xia Ningxi went to the restroom, and coincidentally, the girl who had been eating at the same table came in with her.
Out of politeness, Xia Ningxi greeted her, "Hello."
An Yao was taken aback, and answered tremblingly, "Y-hello."
"Are you Helian Jue's girlfriend? My name is Xia Ningxi, and yours is Xia Ningxi." Xia Ningxi asked.
"An... An Yao." An Yao's face was pale, and her head was lowered, as if she didn't want to talk to Xia Ningxi.
Xia Ningxi found it strange, but didn't ask any further questions. She walked to the sink and turned on the tap.
An Yao walked to Xia Ningxi's side and turned on the tap.
But when she reached out her hand, Xia Ningxi noticed that there were many knife marks on her wrist, marks left from wrist-cutting.
Out of a high degree of professionalism, Xia Ningxi couldn't help but ask, "You haven't been in good spirits lately?"
An Yao nodded: "Mm."
“You can go to the hospital to get checked out. I know a good doctor who can help you take care of your health,” Xia Ningxi said.
An Yao was slightly taken aback, but didn't say a word.
Xia Ningxi thought that since she was someone close to Helian Jue, she must have a private doctor by her side. She had given all the advice she could, and whether the other party listened or not was beyond her control.
Xia Ningxi turned to leave.
Unexpectedly, at that moment, An Yao suddenly grabbed her hand.
Xia Ningxi asked, puzzled, "Is something wrong?"
"Can you save me?" An Yao asked in a trembling voice.
Xia Ningxi was stunned: "Save you?"
"I want to leave here, Miss Xia, please help me, I want to leave here," An Yao said, crying.
Xia Ningxi's mind was in complete chaos; she had no idea what was happening. She asked, "Is someone restricting your freedom?"
"Helian Jue, it's him! He won't let me leave. Miss Xia, you're the only person I've been able to contact in the past six months. Please help me!" An Yao knelt down with a thud.
Xia Ningxi had never encountered anything like this before. She found it very strange. Wasn't An Yao Helian Jue's girlfriend? How come it seemed like she was being forced?
While Xia Ningxi was puzzled, An Yao rolled up her sleeves, and Xia Ningxi noticed that both of An Yao's wrists were covered in cuts, and she also had other wounds of varying sizes all over her body...
Xia Ningxi had never seen a girl with so many scars before, and she was shocked.
An Yao knelt on the ground, crying and begging her, "I'm sorry, please help me. I want to leave Helian Jue, otherwise I really have no choice but to die."
"Calm down first." Xia Ningxi pulled her up.
An Yao's eyes were red.
Xia Ningxi softened and said, "The Helian family is a top-tier wealthy family in the capital city. They are not people that ordinary people can mess with. If you want me to help you, you must tell me about your relationship."
An Yao said, "I am his sister."
"Sister?" Xia Ningxi was shocked.
An Yao said, "I have no blood relation with him. I was adopted by the Helian family when I was six years old, and my parents found me when I was fourteen. After that, I returned to live with the An family. Half a year ago, Helian Jue found me and locked me up. He doesn't allow me to contact outsiders. These injuries are from when I ran away. If I continue to stay with Helian Jue, I will really die. Can you help me?"
An Yao knelt on the ground and begged.
Xia Ningxi was very angry.
She never imagined that Helian Jue was such a twisted person.
Seeing that An Yao was covered in injuries, Xia Ningxi asked, "How can I help you?"
An Yao was overjoyed and said excitedly, "You just need to give me a chance to escape."
"That's all?" Xia Ningxi asked, puzzled.
An Yao nodded.
Suddenly, footsteps could be heard outside.
An Yao turned pale with fright and quickly pretended that nothing had happened.
A woman walked in and asked, "Ladies, are you both ready?"
"I'm done." Xia Ningxi glanced at An Yao and walked out of the bathroom.
Helian Jue glanced at her.
Xia Ningxi pretended not to notice and turned to Huo Nanxiao, saying, "My brother just called. Ayuan and Xingxing got into a fight."
Huo Nanxiao asked with a serious expression, "Is it serious?"
Xia Ningxi said, "They fought really hard."
Huo Nanxiao said, "I'll take you back later."
"Okay." Xia Ningxi nodded.
Xia Ningxi showed no unusual behavior, and when the others heard that the two children had fought, they did not invite Huo Nanxiao to participate in the second half of the event.
Out of politeness, after dinner, Xia Ningxi pulled Huo Nanxiao and the other young masters to say goodbye one by one. When it came to Helian Jue, Xia Ningxi frowned and asked, "Young Master Helian, have you been experiencing palpitations, heart palpitations, or angina lately?"
Helian Jue asked, "How did you know?"
Xia Ningxi said, "I am a doctor. You look unwell, so you probably have a heart problem. Would it be convenient for me to give you a check-up? I am a very skilled doctor."
Helian Jue smiled and said, "Okay."
Xia Ningxi walked up to Helian Jue and said, "Please sit down."
Helian Jue was quite cooperative.
Xia Ningxi performed the examination on Helian Jue in a very professional manner.
Everyone knows she's a doctor, so no one would suspect Xia Ningxi of having ill intentions.
Helian Jue was only giving Huo Nanxiao face and complying with Xia Ningxi's wishes.
He thought it was just a simple check-up and there wouldn't be any problems, but when Xia Ningxi was halfway through the check-up, Helian Jue realized something was wrong, pushed Xia Ningxi away abruptly, and looked around. An Yao was nowhere to be seen.
