Chapter 840 I Didn't Harm Her
Xia Wanwan felt uneasy, but she didn't know what was wrong. She just felt that Xia Luoluo was acting strangely today.
But after thinking it over, Xia Luoluo didn't do anything today. Could it be that she said something to Xia Ningxi when Xia Ningxi left that upset her?
Forget it, Xia Luoluo won't tell the truth anyway.
"Let's go back," Xia Wanwan said.
Xia Luoluo carefully helped Xia Wanwan into the wheelchair and said loudly, "Sister is so smart. As long as you take action, Xia Ningxi will immediately lose her threat."
"She's not someone you can easily deal with." Xia Wanwan knew that Xia Ningxi wouldn't leave obediently just because of her few words. She was doing very well in Lingcheng, the Ling family respected her a lot, and Xia Ningxi could easily gain a foothold in Lingcheng with her own abilities.
"How could someone as intelligent as Xia Ningxi leave Lingcheng just because of a few words from me?"
Xia Wanwan gave a bitter smile.
Xia Luoluo said, "Doesn't my sister already have a solution in mind?"
"Yes," Xia Wanwan responded softly, but she felt very uneasy. She didn't know why, but her eyelids kept twitching.
Xia Wanwan was restless the whole way back.
Just then, Ling Xiao's phone rang.
Xia Ningxi left home today in Ling Xiao's car. Ling Xiao's cars are all limited editions with automatic alarm functions. The moment Xia Ningxi had the accident, his phone received several text messages.
He was in a meeting and didn't check his phone. Three minutes later, a staff member from the car company called him.
"Hello? Is this Mr. Ling Xiao? Are you alright?" came the anxious voice of the staff member on the phone.
Ling Xiao glanced at the waiting crowd in the conference room, his face serious, and asked in a low voice, "Who are you?"
"Your car has been involved in an accident on the highway and has sent a distress message to our company. Are you the driver?" the staff member asked.
Ling Xiao was puzzled. He was perfectly fine in a meeting, so how could there be a car accident?
He asked for the license plate number to confirm that he wasn't driving that car, but then he remembered that the car had been given to Xia Ningxi.
Ling Xiao suddenly stood up and strode towards the door: "My wife is opening it. I'm going there right now."
He then left the group in the meeting room and hurriedly departed.
After he left, Ling Shuang quickly stepped forward to take charge, politely saying to Huo Nanxiao, "Mr. Huo, let's continue the meeting. We were just discussing the plans for this quarter..."
Whoosh—
Before Ling Shuang could finish speaking, Huo Nanxiao stood up and quickly left.
The remaining high-ranking officials stood there dumbfounded, looking at each other, and finally their gazes were fixed on Ling Shuang.
"What happened?"
"Has something happened to Mrs. Ling?"
"President Ling looked very unhappy when he left, which is bad enough, but President Huo seemed even more anxious."
"Is President Ling's wife Xia Ningxi? There have been rumors circulating in the company lately, and everyone is very curious about their relationship."
Instead of thinking about how to proceed with the meeting after the two presidents left, the group of executives were very interested in Xia Ningxi's private affairs.
Ling Shuang coldly questioned, "Are you all done talking? What are you gossiping about? What's it to you?"
Ling Shuang left angrily after uttering a single sentence.
However, when Ling Shuang chased after them, Huo Nanxiao and Ling Xiao were gone. The lobby manager said that the two had left in a hurry. She called Xia Ningxi, but no one answered.
"Strange, what exactly happened?" Ling Shuang wondered.
Just then, news came from the hospital that Lin Jiangbei was critically ill. Ling Shuang disregarded everything else and rushed to the hospital, only to find that Lin Jiangbei had already fallen into a coma.
Ellie frantically dialed the phone outside the emergency room, shouting, "Answer it! Why isn't anyone answering! What's going on?!"
"What happened to my brother?" Ling Shuang grabbed Ellie's hand.
Ellie said, "Hemorrhage in the intracranial cavity, his condition is very critical. Miss Ling Shuang, please let me go first, I need to call Dr. Xia, she needs to come back to perform surgery on Young Master Jiangbei."
"Xia Ningxi? It seems something happened to Xia Ningxi. I can't get through to her on the phone either, but my older brother has already gone to find her. You should quickly arrange for other doctors to treat Jiang Bei." Ling Shuang urged anxiously.
"Tang En is already inside, but it's not good that Dr. Xia isn't here. What happened to her? Can you tell me?" Ellie excitedly grabbed Ling Shuang's hand.
Ling Shuang had no idea what had happened to Xia Ningxi. She tried calling Xia Ningxi but received no answer, and she also sent messages to Ling Xiao but got no reply.
Xia Ningxi's absence caused panic among the Ling family members at the hospital, who rushed to the hospital and waited outside the operating room.
Tian Chunxia was a little angry: "Tang En and Xia Ningxi usually guard Jiangbei together. Why is Xia Ningxi absent this time? The Ling family gives them so much money every month, can't they pay more attention to Jiangbei?"
"What if something happens to Jiangbei because of Xia Ningxi's absence? How am I supposed to live?"
As Tian Chunxia spoke, she broke down in tears, her whole body trembling uncontrollably.
Ling Shuang could only keep reassuring her, "No, nothing will happen in Jiangbei."
Ellie hurriedly explained, "Xia Ningxi must have been delayed by something. Please rest assured, Madam Tian, Tang En is very capable. With him around, Lin Jiangbei will not have any problems."
Tian Chunxia waited anxiously outside the operating room, wiping away her tears. The long wait left her physically and mentally exhausted, and she could only rest briefly on a bench.
The siren of an ambulance outside the hospital was very sharp, and several doctors pushed a stretcher into the hospital.
"Make way, make way!" the doctor shouted anxiously.
Ling Shuang and Ellie, who were blocking the way, quickly made way.
Ling Shuang was quite surprised when she saw Huo Nanxiao among the visitors: "Mr. Huo, what brings you here? Are you here to see Jiangbei?"
Huo Nanxiao ignored Ling Shuang and quickly carried the person on the stretcher into the emergency room next door.
Ling Shuang then realized that the person covered in blood and unconscious was Xia Ningxi.
"What's wrong with her?" Ling Shuang asked in surprise.
Huo Nanxiao said, "There was a car accident."
"Huh?" Ling Shuang was completely stunned. "No wonder I kept calling her and no one answered."
When Huo Nanxiao arrived at the accident scene, Ling Xiao's car was burned down to just a frame, and Xia Ningxi was injured and unconscious because she jumped out of the car in advance.
The suspect who hit her car crashed into a cliff two kilometers from the accident site for unknown reasons, and was already dead when he was rescued.
The initial assessment is that it was a simple car accident.
However, Huo Nanxiao believed that things were not so simple and immediately asked Ye Su to investigate.
Soon, Ye Su returned, her expression grave: "President, we've found the suspect's information. This matter is related to Xia Wanwan."
"Xia Wanwan? Could it be that she hired someone to kill someone?" Ling Shuang was extremely agitated.
Tian Chunxia also heard this and rushed forward to question him: "President Huo, Xia Ningxi is my son's attending physician. You know that my son is seriously ill and his life is in danger at any time. By harming Xia Ningxi, you are taking my son's life! How could you be so cruel!"
Tian Chunxia almost lost control.
Ye Su immediately stepped in front of her and said, "This matter has nothing to do with our president. He could not have murdered Xia Ningxi. There must be some misunderstanding."
Tian Chunxia's eyes were bloodshot: "Xia Wanwan is the woman he would rather abandon his wife and children to marry. How could he not know what Xia Wanwan did! I knew that woman was so desperate to stay in Lingcheng, it turns out she was trying to kill me to cover it up!"
If Xia Wanwan wanted to make a move against Xia Ningxi at any other time, the Ling family would definitely not bother with her.
But things are different now.
Xia Ningxi's life is very precious; anyone who lays a hand on her is an enemy of the Ling family.
They will not allow anyone to lay a hand on Xia Ningxi, not even Huo Nanxiao's wife!
Tian Chunxia said, "President Huo, I'm sorry, but we must get to the bottom of Xia Wanwan's matter today. Please be accommodating and don't force the two families to fight."
The Ling family's attitude was very tough.
Xia Wanwan had just returned to the hotel and hadn't even had a chance to sit down when Ling Shuang and her men burst in. She was stunned, while Xia Luoluo beside her felt uneasy.
Perhaps, things have been exposed.
Xia Luoluo knew what was going on and subconsciously retreated behind Xia Wanwan.
Xia Wanwan, completely unaware of what had happened, asked in confusion, "Miss Ling, what brings you here?"
“Come with me,” Ling Shuang said.
Xia Wanwan asked, puzzled, "Why?"
"You'll find out when we get to the hospital." Ling Shuang didn't give her a chance to ask further, and gave a look to the bodyguard behind her, who immediately took Xia Wanwan away.
Xia Luoluo did not step forward to stop them, but stood silently in the corner without saying a word.
Ling Shuang: "You come along too."
"Me? We're not that close, are we?" Xia Luoluo tried her best to distance herself; she didn't want to leave.
But Ling Shuang didn't give her any chance to refuse. With a single command, the bodyguards took the two sisters away.
When Xia Wanwan arrived at the hospital, she learned that Xia Ningxi had been in a car accident. The lights in the emergency room were still on, and there was still blood on the floor.
Xia Luoluo tentatively asked Huo Nanxiao, "Is Sister Ningxi alright?"
"She'll be fine." Huo Nanxiao felt a chill run through him.
Xia Luoluo felt uneasy. How could Xia Ningxi be so lucky? She was in an accident on the highway, and her car was burned to ashes, yet she was still able to be taken to the hospital with all her limbs intact. Why didn't she die in the car?
But Xia Luoluo dared not say these words aloud; she could only keep them hidden in her heart.
What she did could not possibly be made public.
Xia Wanwan was completely confused. She hadn't caused Xia Ningxi's car accident, so why was she brought to the hospital as soon as Xia Ningxi had the accident?
Feeling the terrifying, even resentful, gazes directed at her by everyone, Xia Wanwan, bewildered, asked the question that had been nagging at her: "Why are you all looking at me like that?"
Huo Nanxiao's deep gaze fixed on her face: "Don't you have anything to explain?"
"Explain what?" Xia Wanwan asked in confusion. "Don't tell me you think I was behind Xia Ningxi's accident?"
Huo Nanxiao: "You arranged to meet her in the suburbs today."
"I have met Ning Xi, but I have no reason to harm her. Nan Xiao, I could not have done such a thing. How can you not believe me?" Xia Wanwan's voice trembled with excitement.
She couldn't understand why she had become a murderer when she hadn't done anything.
