Chapter 79 What will you use to protect me?
Xia Ningxi didn't want to recall the events of that year at all. She didn't want to look at Huo Nanxiao and just wanted to get out of Huo Nanxiao's control as soon as possible.
But she did not succeed.
Huo Nanxiao pinched her chin, forcing her to look at him: "What, you don't dare to listen?"
“That’s all in the past!” Xia Ningxi said.
Huo Nanxiao smiled coldly: "After so many years away from the capital, if you've forgotten what it felt like to be with me back then, I can let you relive it."
Xia Ningxi had never seen anyone as shameless as Huo Nanxiao.
How could he say something so shameful!
She angrily shouted, "I'm already divorced from you! Let me go!"
Huo Nanxiao's deep, dark eyes held a chilling coldness.
"Bastard," Xia Ningxi continued to curse him.
Huo Nanxiao got angry and kissed her lips fiercely.
Xia Ningxi lost her weapon and could only punch and kick Huo Nanxiao, but Huo Nanxiao quickly restrained her hands and stripped her clothes off.
He kissed Xia Ningxi until she was completely exhausted before pulling away from her lips. He did nothing but coldly stare at Xia Ningxi's flushed face.
"Look at yourself now. What part of your body haven't I touched? Am I dirty? And what about you? I've slept with you for two years, and you still dare to dream of being with other men? Who gave you the guts?"
Huo Nanxiao scoffed in a low voice.
Xia Ningxi bit her lip. She knew that Huo Nanxiao was deliberately humiliating her. Huo Nanxiao's perverted possessiveness made her very angry. She used all her strength to push the man off her.
Xia Ningxi's legs went weak, and she slumped helplessly beside the hospital bed.
Her clothes were in disarray, and she gripped the hem of her garment tightly with both hands, covering all the exposed skin.
My breathing is very rapid.
Xia Ningxi's face turned bright red. She bit her lip and remained silent.
Huo Nanxiao stood in front of Xia Ningxi, like a high and mighty emperor, and ordered his servant: "I have to go on a business trip for a few days. During these days, don't let me hear any rumors. If I find out that you are entangled with any man, I don't mind ruining your reputation."
He turned and left with a flourish.
Xia Ningxi picked up a pillow from the ground and threw it at the pillow.
Huo Nanxiao had already closed the door.
The pillow hit the back of the door and fell to the ground with a dull thud.
The surroundings were empty, there wasn't a single person around. Looking at her disheveled state, Xia Ningxi suddenly found it all very ridiculous.
She leaned on the bed, slowly stood up, and walked to the bathroom, only to find that her body was covered with kiss marks left by Huo Nanxiao. She tried to wipe them off, but no matter what she did, she couldn't get rid of them. She even rubbed her neck until it turned red, but it was no use. So she turned on the cold water and rinsed her face.
Looking at my disheveled state, I suddenly felt powerless.
The phone in her pocket kept ringing. Xia Ningxi slowly took it out and saw it was an unfamiliar number. When she answered, a man's clear voice came from the phone.
"Good morning, Dr. Xia."
Xia Ningxi recognized it; it was Huo Jinchuan's voice. How did he find her phone number?
Xia Ningxi was puzzled, but then she thought that if Huo Jinchuan was really a member of the Huo family, it wouldn't be difficult for him to find out her contact information.
"What do you want?" Xia Ningxi asked coldly.
Huo Jinchuan smiled and said, "Are you planning to come out and greet me personally at the entrance of your hospital, or do you want me to come find you myself?"
"Speak your mind, or shut up. I don't have time for you," Xia Ningxi retorted.
Huo Jinchuan said, "I miss you, I want to see you."
Her lips twitched; at that moment, all she wanted to do was curse.
"Get lost." She gave Huo Jinchuan a single word.
Huo Jinchuan wasn't angry: "I'm already in your hospital. Are you in the examination room?"
Xia Ningxi did not answer.
Huo Jinchuan: "That must be in Young Master Huo's hospital room. I'll come find you right now."
Xia Ningxi dared not let Huo Jinchuan come over, so she refused directly: "No, don't come. You should wait in my clinic."
She washed her face, looked at herself in the mirror, and had no choice but to go to the next lounge to find clothes.
Huo Nanxiao also bought her some clothes. Xia Ningxi searched for a long time before finding a high-necked shirt. After she changed into it, she looked in the mirror and found that most of the hickeys had been covered up, but some were still exposed to the air.
Xia Ningxi couldn't hide them, so she could only let down her long hair, which barely covered all the hickeys.
She breathed a sigh of relief and returned to the consultation room, where Huo Jinchuan was indeed sitting and waiting.
Huo Jinchuan was somewhat surprised when he saw Xia Ningxi with her long, wavy hair. He couldn't help but take a few more glances at her and said with a smile, "I didn't expect Dr. Xia to look so good with her hair down."
Xia Ningxi had heard too many of these flattering words, so she rolled her eyes at Huo Jinchuan.
Huo Jinchuan said, "I have done what I promised Dr. Xia. Shouldn't you give me a chance to get to know each other better?"
"What did you promise me?" Xia Ningxi didn't react.
Huo Jinchuan said, "Make Huo Nanxiao disappear from your sight for a few days."
"You did this?" Xia Ningxi was very surprised. Huo Nanxiao left in a great hurry, which meant that something big must have happened at the company. Otherwise, he would not have abandoned Huo Yuan and gone on a business trip alone.
Huo Jinchuan said, "I did it."
Xia Ningxi was at a loss for words. She admitted that she had underestimated Huo Jinchuan, but that was because she had no idea of Huo Jinchuan's true identity before, and Huo Jinchuan had not told her either.
She could tell that Huo Jinchuan and Huo Nanxiao didn't get along.
Xia Ningxi didn't want to know what grudges or hatred existed between them. She didn't want to see any member of the Huo family, and as for what she had promised Huo Jinchuan...
Who says she has to agree to be with Huo Jinchuan just because he's pursuing her?
Xia Ningxi said, "I understand, thank you, you can go now."
Huo Jinchuan was slightly taken aback: "Are you just being so perfunctory with me?"
Xia Ningxi said, "Since you've managed to find me, you should know about my relationship with Huo Nanxiao. What exactly is your purpose?"
"What's your relationship? I don't know, and I don't want to know. All I know is that I like you now. Be my girlfriend." Huo Jinchuan said without changing his expression.
Xia Ningxi said, "I'm Huo Nanxiao's woman now. Aren't you afraid that Huo Nanxiao will cause you trouble after he finds out you're pursuing me?"
“He has plenty of women around him, but I’m different. I’m very devoted. As long as you’re willing to be with me, I have the ability to protect you,” Huo Jinchuan said very seriously.
Xia Ningxi listened casually; she had heard such things many times before.
Back when she was abroad, people who pursued her often said the same thing. Now that she's in the capital, Huo Jinchuan is still using the same words. Does he think she's still a naive young girl who just entered society and doesn't know anything?
In the capital city, who dares to go against Huo Nanxiao?
She sneered, "What can you do to protect me?"
