Chapter 948 So beautiful, let me do as I please
After seeing Han Musen's face clearly, Huo Nanxiao sneered, "So, it was you who came looking for me."
"Aren't you surprised?" Han Musen asked in return.
Huo Nanxiao said, "Just tell me what you want. I don't have time to listen to your nonsense."
Han Musen smiled slightly: "Normally, it would be harder for you to see me, let alone make a request. Why are you suddenly so easy to talk to today?"
"Isn't Xia Ningxi in your hands? By controlling her, aren't you trying to negotiate with me? If that's the case, why beat around the bush?"
Huo Nanxiao's tone was full of disdain; he could even guess what Han Musen was planning to do next.
Han Musen, though exposed, was not angry. He leisurely walked past Huo Nanxiao, sat down on a small chair by the hot spring, and slowly sipped the cocktail that had just been served. He said, "We haven't seen each other for many days. There's no need to argue until we're red in the face. Why don't we sit down and have a good chat?"
Oh!
Huo Nanxiao scoffed coldly and deftly pulled out a chair and sat down.
Han Musen said, "Since you're so smart, why don't you guess why I've called you here?"
Huo Nanxiao: "You promised Xia Wenhe benefits, colluded with the Xia family, and tried to find a starting point by targeting the Xia family. You've chosen the wrong person."
"Not necessarily," Han Musen replied.
Huo Nanxiao said, "You should know that they have no value to me anymore."
Han Musen nodded: "You really don't care about Xia Wanwan's family, but isn't there Xia Ningxi? If you didn't care about Xia Ningxi so much, you wouldn't be here."
Huo Nanxiao scoffed, "If you don't dare to touch her, why bother making trouble for yourself?"
"Ridiculous! What is Xia Ningxi? Why wouldn't I dare to touch her?" Han Musen laughed loudly.
Huo Nanxiao's gaze was extremely cold, and the way he looked at him was more like looking at a fool.
People both at home and abroad are well aware of Xia Ningxi's status and identity. In addition, her laboratory has recently released several experimental results, which has further elevated Xia Ningxi's status. Her status is far beyond that of an ordinary heiress from a wealthy family.
Anyone with a brain should know that national talent is not to be touched.
Unless Han Musen wants to go back to jail for a few more years.
He was too lazy to waste words.
Han Musen was aware of the situation, but he didn't want to be at a disadvantage at this time.
He handed him a cocktail, saying, "Try it, it's one of our specialties."
Huo Nanxiao glanced at it disdainfully, "I don't think much of it."
"Heh, you've eaten too many delicacies, and you don't even care about your own brewed wine. No wonder you're the famous Crown Prince. But you don't dare touch anything here, is it because you're a coward?" Han Musen mocked sarcastically.
Huo Nanxiao said, "I find everything related to you disgusting."
"Hehe." Han Musen's smile didn't reach his eyes, and his handsome face showed an unusual ruthlessness: "Thanks to you, you've been in prison for several years and are naturally dirty, but you're not much better. You killed Li Yancheng's own sister. You're just lucky to have the Huo family protecting you."
Huo Nanxiao was already planning to leave.
Han Musen said, "If you dare to leave now, Xia Ningxi will be in trouble."
"Whatever." Huo Nanxiao said indifferently.
Han Musen said, "She's so beautiful, are you sure you want me to do whatever I want with her?"
Huo Nanxiao's sharp gaze fell on him, and he said, word by word, "You'd better think carefully about your own abilities."
“She’s a celebrity, I won’t let her lose an arm or a leg. As for other things, I’m sure she wouldn’t dare to say anything, after all, she’s a girl and doesn’t want to be pointed at and talked about for the rest of her life.” Han Musen smiled, his eyes full of calculation.
Although he didn't explicitly say what he wanted to do to Xia Ningxi, Huo Nanxiao already understood.
Anger surged within him in an instant. Huo Nanxiao looked at the wine glass that Han Musen lazily held in his palm and slowly said, "It seems that you are not going to hand over the person obediently today."
"When did I say I would hand over Xia Ningxi?" Han Musen feigned surprise.
Huo Nanxiao chuckled: "Since you like having people under your thumb so much, then go ahead. You can act out this charade yourself. Don't go too far and end up plunging the entire Han family into utter ruin."
Han Musen scoffed, "I'm not that stupid, and I won't make the same mistake twice. Xia Ningxi is a distinguished guest I invited, so I will naturally send her back safely. However, how would outsiders know when I send her back or what she went through?"
She's a girl; she can't exactly go around telling everyone about the inhumane treatment she suffered, can she? Unless she's shameless. You're free to get up and leave now; I can't stop you. But if you want Xia Ningxi to be safe from any harm, I advise you to sit down and have a proper talk, and while you're at it, try some of our famous cocktails.”
As his voice fell, a glass of wine was already placed in front of Huo Nanxiao.
He had no choice but to drink this glass of wine!
Unless, he wants something to happen to Xia Ningxi.
Now that things have come to this point, Han Musen is too lazy to pretend anymore.
Huo Nanxiao glanced disdainfully at the wine in the glass, took it without hesitation, and drank it down in one gulp.
"Aren't you afraid I'll poison you?" Han Musen asked.
Huo Nanxiao said, "Anyway, I won't die."
Han Musen smiled, poured himself another glass of wine, and said, "I know you're smart and won't easily drink what I give you, so there's no poison in the wine, but it's not likely you can just walk away so easily."
"Since you're already here, I'll just get straight to the point. I heard you have a big project with the Ling family going on recently. Give it to me."
Huo Nanxiao said impatiently, "Why don't you go talk to Ling Xiao yourself?"
"I know I can tell he looks down on the Han family, but it's different if you're the one who made the connection. You have many ways to make money, you don't need this one. The Han family is different, they can't compare to the Huo family at all." Han Musen said in a calm tone.
"That's all?"
Huo Nanxiao clearly didn't believe his excuse.
He finally unleashed a major move, only to snatch up a single project? Even if this project is highly profitable in the future, Han Musen won't give up so easily; he'll only want more.
Han Musen didn't give him a specific answer, but just smiled and said, "If you want to give me more benefits, that's not impossible, provided you're willing?"
"I'm not willing." Huo Nanxiao refused without hesitation.
Han Musen: "Isn't that enough? As long as we have one project, we can live peacefully together in the future. I definitely won't cause you any more trouble, and I'll treat Xia Ningxi like a queen."
Huo Nanxiao remained silent for a long time before finally agreeing: "Release the person, and I will take you to see the Ling family tomorrow."
"Okay." Han Musen agreed very readily.
Huo Nanxiao was too lazy to linger there any longer, so he got up and started to walk out. But he hadn’t taken two steps when he heard a loud thud behind him. He turned around and saw Han Musen, who had been full of energy just a moment ago, lying on the ground with a dazed look in his eyes.
"Are you out of your mind?" Huo Nanxiao asked.
Han Musen did not answer, but tried to stand up by holding onto the chair, but he could not muster any strength and fell heavily to the ground again.
Huo Nanxiao was also puzzled as to why Han Musen, who seemed perfectly healthy, would suddenly...
Just as Huo Nanxiao was puzzled, a wave of dizziness washed over him, and his vision began to blur. It felt as if all the strength in his body had been drained. He rubbed his temples and shook his head to force himself to wake up, but as soon as he moved, he began to fall uncontrollably.
Huo Nanxiao quickly grabbed the stone pillar beside him, already understanding what had happened.
Almost at the same time, a group of people rushed in.
