Chapter 379 Are you ever going to stop?
Xia Ningxi didn't know what had gotten into Huo Nanxiao, and complained, "It won't do you any good for me to stay. Besides, you've seen it yourself. Now, Mom and Dad don't like Xia Wanwan, and Huo Jinchuan wants to use Xia Wanwan's matter to cause you trouble. If I stay here, Xia Wanwan will never be able to enter the Huo family in her lifetime."
"I'm doing this for your future."
"Are you just going to stand by and watch Xia Wanwan all alone?"
"You're going to such lengths to cure her, isn't it all so you can be with her and enjoy the bliss of having two wives? Why leave me and the child here in your way?"
Xia Ningxi felt that Huo Nanxiao was already very fortunate to have a wife like her.
If it were anyone else, they would have beaten Xia Wanwan up as a mistress long ago. There are already quite a few people as considerate and kind as Xia Ningxi.
Not only was Huo Nanxiao not grateful to him, but he also gave him a cold shoulder?
Who is he trying to impress with that fierce look?
Xia Ningxi stiffened her neck, waiting for Huo Nanxiao's reply.
Huo Nanxiao simply looked at her, his gaze so deep it was hard to fathom. He said, "Do you really want to leave here?"
“Yes.” Xia Ningxi did not deny it.
Huo Nanxiao didn't say a word, got up and left.
Xia Ningxi sensed that this guy was angry. Feeling puzzled, she quickly caught up with him and asked, "You haven't answered my question yet."
Huo Nanxiao said, "The children are living very well in the Huo family, so I don't plan to let you take the children with you."
"What's the difference between this and being a pervert?" Xia Ningxi said unhappily.
The man suddenly stopped.
Xia Ningxi didn't react in time and bumped headfirst into Huo Nanxiao. Her head was buzzing, and she clutched her forehead in pain, angrily saying, "Why did you suddenly stop?"
Huo Nanxiao looked down at her slightly flushed cheeks, wrapped one arm around her slender waist, and pinched Xia Ningxi's waist hard.
Xia Ningxi groaned softly in pain, "What are you doing?"
"Who are you calling a hooligan?" Huo Nanxiao suddenly tightened his grip.
Xia Ningxi pressed herself against Huo Nanxiao's body, the strength around her waist gradually tightening, and she was almost being mashed into Huo Nanxiao's body.
There are so many people watching!
Xia Ningxi's ears burned. She struggled several times but couldn't break free from Huo Nanxiao. She gritted her teeth, swallowed the anger stuck in her throat, and reluctantly explained, "I didn't curse you."
Huo Nanxiao narrowed his eyes dangerously.
Xia Ningxi said, "I was cursing Huo Jinchuan."
Huo Nanxiao: "He's already gone."
Xia Ningxi struggled for a while but couldn't push Huo Nanxiao away. She gave up and could only admit her mistake: "I was wrong, okay? Let me go."
Huo Nanxiao narrowed his eyes, clearly not satisfied with Xia Ningxi's perfunctory attitude.
Xia Ningxi said, "With so many people watching, you may be shameless, but I still have a sense of shame."
"Hmph, pulling and tugging at Huo Jinchuan right in front of me, what kind of face do you have?" Huo Nanxiao sneered.
Xia Ningxi instantly became angry: "What gives you the right to say that to me?"
"Am I wrong?" Huo Nanxiao retorted.
Xia Ningxi said, "How are you any better? Huo Jinchuan and I are still nothing, unlike you, who is entangled with Xia Wanwan and even wants to marry her. I never said I wanted to marry Huo Jinchuan. Compared to you, I am much better."
Huo Nanxiao's handsome face instantly darkened. He coldly stared at Xia Ningxi's fair face, observing the dissatisfaction and anger in her eyes, and remained silent...
Then, he released his hand from the girl's waist, turned around and left without saying a word.
Xia Ningxi watched Huo Nanxiao's departing figure, frowned and cursed, "Hmph, he still has the nerve to be angry."
She went to play with the three children and ignored Huo Nanxiao.
Huo Xiuyuan also knew that Huo Nanxiao had been going to Ninghai Hospital quite often recently, so he asked Xia Ningxi, "What do you think about Xia Wanwan's situation?"
Xia Ningxi said, "I have no opinion."
Huo Xiuyuan was displeased: "How can you not have an opinion? Nan Xiao is your husband, and Xia Wanwan is Nan Xiao's savior. Do you know that Nan Xiao has worked so hard to treat Xia Wanwan all these years in order to marry her?"
“I know, but what can I do?” Xia Ningxi asked in return.
Huo Xiuyuan said, "The Huo family owes Xia Wanwan a debt, but since you've already married into the family, it means there's still room for maneuver. As long as you don't allow Xia Wanwan to enter the family, I can control the Xia family."
Huo Xiuyuan's meaning was very clear: Xia Ningxi should be the one to start this matter.
Because the Huo family owes Xia Wanwan a debt. It was Huo Nanxiao who promised to marry Xia Wanwan. If the Huo family were to renege on their promise, it would certainly damage the Huo family's reputation.
But if Xia Ningxi were to step in and stop it, that would be a different story, since Xia Ningxi is the original wife.
As long as Xia Ningxi is willing to take the lead, Huo Xiuyuan can get rid of Xia Wanwan without any problem.
Huo Xiuyuan said, "As long as you speak up, no one can take away the position of the eldest daughter-in-law of the Huo family."
Xia Ningxi gave a bitter smile and shook her head: "Dad, no need. For me, the most important thing is to raise the three children peacefully. Nan Xiao doesn't have me in his heart, so why should I tie myself to his side? He won't be happy that way, and neither will I."
"His happiness is not important; what matters most is that you and the child are happy," Huo Xiuyuan told her.
Xia Ningxi knew that Huo Xiuyuan felt very sorry for her, so she forced a smile: "Dad, I know you are doing this for my own good. You also know Nan Xiao's attitude very well. No matter how hard I try, he will not change his mind. Why should I waste my time?"
Besides, the children are bound to be affected by growing up in such an unhealthy family environment for so long. I don't want them to be influenced by the affairs of us adults.
Huo Xiuyuan sighed helplessly, "Alright, you need to think it through."
“I know,” Xia Ningxi nodded.
She actually knew better than anyone else about this matter.
Xia Ningxi knew that Huo Xiuyuan was genuinely thinking of her, otherwise he wouldn't have said those things.
However, having the parents' consent is far from enough for a marriage; the couple also needs to truly love each other.
Xia Ningxi loved Huo Nanxiao, but Huo Nanxiao was different.
She no longer cares.
She ignored Huo Nanxiao's affairs and didn't ask any questions, thinking she could finally enjoy a few days of peace and quiet. However, Zhou Fenglin called Xia Ningxi that very evening.
She questioned, "You shameless little bitch, is it you who stirred up trouble behind the scenes when Young Master Huo suddenly disagreed with marrying Wanwan?"
Xia Ningxi looked displeased and hung up the phone immediately.
Zhou Fenglin was not giving up and called Xia Ningxi again.
Xia Ningxi snapped impatiently, "Are you ever going to stop?"
