Chapter 1063 Was she the one who saved me?
Xia Wanwan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She hadn't expected that Huo Nanxiao would come to see her not out of concern, but to immediately distance himself from her, right after she woke up.
She asked, "Can't we talk about anything other than money?"
Huo Nanxiao didn't speak, but that was tacit agreement; there was nothing more to say between them.
Huo Nanxiao was very grateful to Xia Wanwan for saving Chu Chu, so he would provide corresponding compensation. However, besides these, Huo Nanxiao did not know what else he could give her.
He knew very well what Xia Wanwan wanted most, and he also knew that Xia Wanwan sincerely hoped to come back to his side.
But Huo Nanxiao didn't want to mention these things again.
Xia Wanwan understood his attitude perfectly well. She gave a helpless bitter smile and asked, "If you find Luo Luo, what will you do with her?"
"Hand it over to the police. How they handle it is not up to me," Huo Nanxiao said coldly.
Xia Wanwan said, "Luo Luo has been in contact with the Han family during this period. Although I don't have evidence to prove that the Han family was involved in the fire incident, they must have been pushing things along behind the scenes. Perhaps you can investigate in that direction, and you should have an answer soon."
"Okay," Huo Nanxiao agreed.
A brief silence fell over the ward.
Xia Wanwan was seriously injured and in a bad mood. She lay on the hospital bed to rest and ignored Huo Nanxiao.
Huo Nanxiao arranged for Xia Wanwan to have 24-hour care before leaving the intensive care unit.
Xia Ningxi has taken her three children home to rest, and the Ling family has also arranged bodyguards to protect Xia Jingcheng. Everything seems to have returned to calm, but this matter has not been resolved.
Many people were injured at the scene of the fire, and some were even hospitalized.
The most unlucky person was Li Yancheng. He hadn't planned to attend the full moon banquet in the first place, but he went anyway with the intention of watching the fun. As a result, he was choked by the fumes and developed pneumonia, and had to be on an IV drip for two days.
When Huo Nanxiao approached Li Yancheng, he found that Li Yancheng's condition was not much better, and the question he was about to ask got stuck in his throat.
"What are you doing here?" Li Yancheng didn't expect to run into him at the hospital.
Huo Nanxiao said, "Wanwan is hospitalized upstairs."
"Then why did you go to the inpatient department? What are you doing here?" Li Yancheng asked warily.
Huo Nanxiao asked, "Where were you when the house burned down?"
"You don't want to ask me where I am, but rather whether I have a motive for committing a crime. You've seen what I look like now. If I really had the intention to commit a crime, I wouldn't put myself in danger," Li Yancheng sneered.
He's not stupid; how could he not guess what Huo Nanxiao was thinking?
They grew up together and sometimes only need a glance to understand each other's thoughts.
Li Yancheng knew that Huo Nanxiao already had someone he suspected, but he wasn't sure yet. He had only come to him to see if Huo Nanxiao was an accomplice.
If Li Yancheng hadn't had medicine attached to his body, Huo Nanxiao would definitely have suspected that Li Yancheng was also involved.
Li Yancheng was quite annoyed: "Why don't you go and cause trouble for Han Musen instead of coming to me? Are you out of your mind?"
Huo Nanxiao said, "He didn't send his own people to do it."
“Isn’t that obvious? A person who has been to prison once isn’t that stupid. He would just have others do it, and these people are all from overseas. Judging by the time, they should have already left the country.” Li Yancheng counted the time on his fingers.
Huo Nanxiao sat down opposite him, glanced at Li Yancheng's hand that was receiving an IV drip, and asked, "Are you feeling better?"
"What's wrong with you today? You actually suddenly feel concerned about me? You didn't kill my parents, did you?" Li Yancheng's expression changed.
Aside from that, there's no other reason why Huo Nanxiao would suddenly show concern for him.
But his questions went unanswered.
Li Yancheng angrily ripped the syringe off the back of his hand, rushed towards Huo Nanxiao, and grabbed Huo Nanxiao's clothes: "I didn't touch your parents!"
Huo Nanxiao chuckled: "They're fine."
Li Yancheng breathed a sigh of relief, staring at Huo Nanxiao with a wary expression: "Then why did you come to see me? Is something wrong?"
Huo Nanxiao said, "You were there when I had that accident, right?"
"So what if it is?" Li Yancheng retorted.
Huo Nanxiao said, "Xia Luoluo is here too, right?"
Li Yancheng's eyes darkened: "What do you want to ask?"
"Wasn't Xia Ningxi the one who saved me back then?"
Huo Nanxiao remained silent for a long time before finally asking the question that had been bothering him.
Over the years, he has always been grateful to Xia Wanwan. He searched for good doctors for Xia Wanwan and even let Xia Ningxi down time and time again for her sake. All of this was because of his guilt and sense of indebtedness. He always believed that he could never repay Xia Wanwan for what he owed her in this lifetime.
But now that Huo Nanxiao has discovered that the person he owes the most to is Xia Ningxi, his complicated feelings are once again tormented by his conscience.
He knew that Li Yancheng must know the whole truth; only he knew what had really happened back then.
And what about Li Yancheng?
He remained silent when questioned by Huo Nanxiao, and eventually even laughed.
Huo Nanxiao asked, "What are you laughing at?"
"Who told you that?" Li Yancheng questioned.
Huo Nanxiao once said, "Xia Luoluo."
Li Yancheng sneered: "It really was her. No matter what the truth was back then, it's a fact that Xia Wanwan saved Chu Chu, and you can't deny that. She's already so badly injured and her body is so broken, no one will want her anymore. If you have any conscience, take good care of Xia Wanwan."
"This is not the answer I want to hear," Huo Nanxiao said, his face showing dissatisfaction.
Li Yancheng said, "Then what else do you want to hear? Xia Ningxi is already married, the past is the past, there is no future between you and her. I advise you not to hope for something that doesn't belong to you."
Huo Nanxiao said, "How can you be so sure we don't have a future?"
"Because you don't deserve it," Li Yancheng said sarcastically.
Huo Nanxiao's eyes turned cold.
Li Yancheng looked into his eyes and said, word by word, "Actually, you know better than anyone who saved you. Xia Ningxi couldn't have appeared where you were injured for no reason, nor could she have forgotten everything from back then for no reason."
"You know better than anyone that the person who saved you was a girl, but you didn't ask anyone or come to me for an answer because you already knew that the person who saved you was Xia Ningxi, you just didn't want to admit it."
Li Yancheng knew very well how sharp Huo Nanxiao's eyes were.
If he really wanted to know who saved him, he could simply pull up the video footage from the cruise ship at the time of the incident and watch it over and over again.
Even an outsider like Li Yancheng can judge a person based on their outward appearance.
Huo Nanxiao and Xia Ningxi have been together for so many years and have several children together. How could he not recognize her?
