Chapter 642 Huo Nanxiao, we'll settle things once and for all.
Xia Wanwan also understood the meaning behind Huo Nanxiao's words. She smiled bitterly: "Nanxiao, what difference does it make whether I pursue this matter or not? You don't know what happened back then, and I don't remember either. Li Yancheng's words alone cannot prove everything. He was never a good person to begin with."
After a pause, Xia Wanwan continued, "Besides, your parents don't like me. Rather than letting Ning Xi bear some bad scandals, it's better for me to bear it all alone. She's a doctor, and she has a long future ahead of her. If people find out that she did something bad in the past, it will probably affect her career."
Xia Wanwan is very sensible, so sensible that Huo Nanxiao feels guilty.
She truly understood Huo Nanxiao very well.
Huo Nanxiao said, "Xia Ningxi doesn't need you to do anything for her, nor does she need anyone to take the blame for her. She will take responsibility for what she has done herself, and you don't need to worry about it."
"Li Yancheng gave me some things, which I haven't opened. I think they're what you wanted. They're all on the table." Xia Wanwan picked up a black bag from the table. She didn't know what was inside, so she handed it to Huo Nanxiao without opening it.
"You've been sick for so many years, don't you really hate me?" Huo Nanxiao asked her.
Xia Wanwan smiled bitterly: "Who should I hate? I can only blame my own body for being so weak. How could I possibly hate you and Ning Xi? Neither of you did anything wrong. It's just that I'm unlucky."
She grasped Huo Nanxiao's hand cautiously: "I know Li Yancheng has always harbored resentment towards you, and everything he does is ultimately aimed at retaliating against you, so I won't listen to him. But I'm truly sorry for being caught between you and Ning Xi; I shouldn't have put you in such a difficult position."
"I heard that Uncle Huo is still angry with you because of this? Why don't we just let it go? I don't know how much longer my body can hold out. Don't upset Uncle Huo because of me, and don't make Ning Xi and the children sad because of me."
Huo Nanxiao subtly withdrew his hand and placed her cold little hands on her numb legs.
Looking at the woman still sitting in a wheelchair in front of him, Huo Nanxiao felt a mix of emotions churning inside him. But Huo Nanxiao also knew that some things couldn't be decided just by others saying a few words.
He knew Xia Wanwan's concerns.
“If it weren’t for your connection with the Huo family, you probably wouldn’t be able to survive in the capital,” Huo Nanxiao said.
Xia Wanwan pretended to be strong: "It's okay, I still have my parents and sister, they can take good care of me."
“You know your family’s character better than anyone else,” Huo Nanxiao replied.
Xia Wanwan lowered her head: "But I am still their biological daughter. Do you think they can really just watch me die? At worst, I'll have an uneasy life for the rest of my days, but I can grit my teeth and get through it."
Huo Nanxiao looked at her very seriously and said, "Since I promised to marry you, I won't go back on my word. But before that, I need to confirm one thing."
He strode up to Xia Wanwan, looking down at her, and questioned her, word by word: "You really don't remember anything about what happened back then?"
"I don't remember," Xia Wanwan shook her head.
Huo Nanxiao said, "You don't remember what happened, how you fell into the water, what happened before and after the accident, or what kind of argument you had with Xia Ningxi?"
“Nan Xiao, I had brain surgery. If it weren’t for Tang En and the others, I would never have woken up. I truly don’t remember anything from back then. Do you still suspect that I intentionally lied to you? If I really wanted to lie to you, why would I abandon you and try to bring you and Ning Xi together?” Xia Wanwan’s eyes reddened, and she was trembling with excitement.
"You'd better tell the truth." Huo Nanxiao looked at her, his gaze sharp as a blade.
Xia Wanwan said, "Everything I said is the truth. I also know that Ning Xi and her child don't like me. Anyway, I'm already so sick that I don't even know when I'll die, so you don't need to worry about me."
Huo Nanxiao said, "Xia Ningxi will take responsibility for her mistakes. You have become like this, and in the end, it is I who have let you down. I will also take responsibility for what I should bear."
"But what about Ning Xi?" Xia Wanwan pressed.
Huo Nanxiao said, "She came today too, she's downstairs."
Huo Nanxiao hadn't looked at the things Li Yancheng gave Xia Wanwan. He opened them and found a USB drive inside. He didn't look at the contents, but instead sent it directly to Ye Su to have a professional authenticate it, to prevent Li Yancheng from faking the video.
The technical department quickly replied that the video was authentic and there were no signs of faking it.
As for the contents, Huo Nanxiao didn't read them. Instead, he made a phone call and asked Xia Ningxi to come upstairs.
Xia Ningxi glanced at Li Yancheng, who was sitting with his legs crossed, looking like he was waiting to see a good show. She knew that Huo Nanxiao must have something to say to her, so she got up and went upstairs.
Huo Nanxiao and Xia Wanwan were both in the room, and their expressions were not good.
"What do you want?" Xia Ningxi asked.
Huo Nanxiao said, "This is the video surveillance footage from the time of the incident. The technical department replied that the video content was not falsified. Take a look."
Xia Ningxi glanced at the computer and asked, "Provided by Li Yancheng?"
“That’s right,” Huo Nanxiao replied.
Xia Ningxi: "You've all seen it?"
"No." Huo Nanxiao didn't want to see.
Xia Wanwan also remained unusually silent.
The two of them were waiting for Xia Ningxi to come and argue with them personally.
Xia Ningxi found it quite amusing. What were they afraid of? Were they afraid the outcome would be unfavorable to her, and that she would shamelessly pester them?
She is no longer the fool who would risk everything for Huo Nanxiao.
I opened the video surveillance; it lasted a long time, about ten minutes.
In the video, Xia Ningxi and Xia Wanwan got into an argument. In a fit of anger, Xia Ningxi suddenly pushed Xia Wanwan into the sea. Xia Wanwan, now in the water, frantically splashed and cried for help, even grabbing Xia Ningxi's hand, trying to get her to pull her up. But Xia Ningxi ignored her and pushed her into the sea, watching helplessly as Xia Wanwan sank into the abyss. Then, she turned and left…
When Xia Ningxi saw this, her body froze uncontrollably. A nameless fear surged into her heart, and her hands trembled. The hand that was moving the mouse froze in mid-air.
Huo Nanxiao and Xia Wanwan both witnessed the same scene.
None of them faked this video recording.
No one wanted to frame Xia Ningxi.
Xia Ningxi had no idea what kind of innocence she had been pursuing all these years...
She really did that...
She took a deep breath, the bright light in her eyes gone, and looked calmly at Huo Nanxiao, saying, "I won't argue anymore. It is indeed I who have wronged her."
"Ningxi, I don't think you did it on purpose." Xia Wanwan took Xia Ningxi's hand.
Xia Ningxi bluntly dismissed him: "This is the original surveillance footage, it's not faked. I'm sorry for what happened, but if I hadn't brought Tang En here, you wouldn't have survived either. I'm divorcing Huo Nanxiao, and I'll give you back your position as the eldest daughter-in-law of the Huo family. We'll be even."
