Chapter 940 My son is lucky to have married her.
Huo Nanxiao sighed helplessly, unsure how to respond to his child's accusations.
Huo Yuan said, "If Daddy couldn't bear to part with her, he shouldn't have agreed to it before. I've been waiting for you all day. Doesn't she have other family members? She always bothers Daddy with the slightest problem. I think she's planning to cling to you like this."
Huo Yuan, who is usually the most well-behaved, was unusually talkative today, and even hit the nail on the head.
Huo Nanxiao understood these things, but he really couldn't rush back to comfort the child. He said, "Let your mother answer the phone."
Huo Yuan was puzzled, but he still obediently handed the phone to Xia Ningxi: "Mommy, Daddy wants to talk to you."
After Xia Ningxi answered the phone, Huo Nanxiao said with some guilt, "Please take good care of the children these next few days. I may not be able to go back to be with them for a while."
"Don't worry, I know how to take care of my child." Xia Ningxi never expected anything from him.
Huo Nanxiao: "I'm sorry to disappoint the child. Ayuan has been waiting for me for a long time. If you have time tonight, spend more time with him."
"Okay." Xia Ningxi replied calmly, even somewhat coldly.
Huo Nanxiao's feelings were very complicated. He wanted to explain to Xia Ningxi why he didn't go back, but when he thought of Xia Wanwan's current situation, he fell silent.
More than half a year has passed since the divorce, and Xia Ningxi has never taken the initiative to try to keep Huo Nanxiao, nor has she cared about his private affairs.
In the past, Huo Nanxiao would have been overjoyed, but as the distance between them grew, Huo Nanxiao even hoped that Xia Ningxi would take the initiative to ask him to stay.
Xia Wanwan contemplated suicide for several days, and Huo Nanxiao stayed with her for a few days. After that, he handed over the responsibility of taking care of Xia Wanwan to Xia Wenhe, and took some time to return to Lingcheng to visit the three children.
Xingxing and Chuchu were indifferent to Huo Nanxiao, but Huo Yuan clung to him. After he got home, Huo Yuan kept asking for a hug and clung to Huo Nanxiao almost all day, as if afraid he would run away.
The tiny bundle curled up pitifully in Huo Nanxiao's arms, which made Huo Nanxiao feel very sorry for him, so he held Huo Yuan even tighter.
"Daddy, I saw on the news that you're getting a divorce, is it true?" Huo Yuan asked curiously.
Huo Nanxiao admitted: "It's true."
Huo Yuan was overjoyed: "Then, after Daddy's divorce, can we move back to our own home?"
"A-Yuan doesn't like it here?" Huo Nanxiao was surprised.
Huo Yuan said, "I like it. I just want Daddy and Mommy to always be together."
"Yes, I will," Huo Nanxiao replied.
Xia Ningxi, who was reading a book, looked up in surprise when she heard Huo Nanxiao's words. Her beautiful eyes met Huo Nanxiao's deep eyes. She couldn't understand what was hidden in Huo Nanxiao's eyes, so she turned to the side and continued reading.
In the afternoon, guests came to our house: Ling Shuang and Cao Xiuxian.
The two were quite surprised to see Huo Nanxiao. Cao Xiuxian looked displeased and asked, "Why is President Huo here too?"
"Is there a problem?" Huo Nanxiao asked calmly.
Cao Xiuxian said, "You two are already divorced, right? Xia Ningxi is not the same as before, so you should still avoid each other."
"There's no need for that," Huo Nanxiao said dismissively.
Cao Xiuxian said, "I think it's necessary. After all, Xia Ningxi is now the daughter-in-law of the Ling family and has very close ties with Ling Xiao. You are a sensible person and should know that you shouldn't cause these unnecessary troubles because of your status and position."
"Heh." Huo Nanxiao snorted coldly, not taking Cao Xiuxian's warning to heart, and letting her words go in one ear and out the other.
Cao Xiuxian couldn't do anything about Huo Nanxiao, so she angrily turned her gaze away and looked at Xia Ningxi: "I heard you're off today, so Ashuang and I came to see you and brought some gifts."
She gave a wink to the bodyguard behind her, who immediately placed several elegantly packaged bags he was carrying on the table.
Cao Xiuxian said, "Hermes recently released a limited edition bag, only two of which are available worldwide. I bought one for you, and there are also some clothes and school bags that children can use, all of which you can use."
"It's too valuable, I can't accept it." How could Xia Ningxi dare to accept it?
Cao Xiuxian comforted her, "We're all family, and these things aren't worth much. You can't expect me to carry them back, can you? It won't look good."
Ling Shuang echoed, "Just accept it. We're all family, no need to be so polite."
As they spoke, Ling Shuang secretly glanced at Huo Nanxiao. When they mentioned "family," Huo Nanxiao's expression subtly changed. Ling Shuang chuckled to herself.
Xia Ningxi had no choice but to accept the gifts obediently.
After inviting the two to sit down, Xia Ningxi asked them the purpose of their visit.
Ling Shuang said, "We just came back from Jiangbei. His condition is okay so far, but Tang En said he still needs surgery. We've had several surgeries in the past six months, and we're really worried about whether he can recover."
"I understand." Xia Ningxi took Lin Jiangbei's medical examination report and said very seriously, "As we said before, his head condition is very complicated and new tumors will keep growing. The previous surgery only temporarily saved his life. Only when no new tumors grow can he fully recover."
However, human environments and constitutions are highly diverse, and even doctors cannot be certain that Lin Jiangbei will not develop new tumors. Nevertheless, our specially developed drug has shown good efficacy in combating these tumors; you can wait a little longer.”
Xia Ningxi said very seriously.
Ling Shuang looked worried: "But it's been almost a year."
Xia Ningxi said, "Facing this type of disease requires a long-term struggle. You should also understand that if we hadn't taken over Lin Jiangbei's case back then, he wouldn't have made it this far."
"I understand." Ling Shuang was disappointed.
Xia Ningxi said, "Don't worry, based on the data our lab currently has, Lin Jiangbei can still be cured. It just will take some time, so please be patient. Besides, Lin Jiangbei can already get out of bed and walk around, and his bodily functions are quite good."
“That’s true.” Ling Shuang breathed a sigh of relief.
Cao Xiuxian said, "Ling Xiao has been working overtime lately and isn't feeling well. Could you take him for a check-up when you have time?"
"Okay." Xia Ningxi agreed very readily.
But before he could finish speaking, Huo Nanxiao, who had been silent all along, suddenly interrupted in a sinister tone: "Is the Ling family so poor that they can't even afford a private doctor? This little matter requires Madam Cao to personally come and find a doctor on leave."
Cao Xiuxian smiled slightly: "They are husband and wife. It doesn't matter to President Huo if they help each other."
"It's time for a divorce," Huo Nanxiao said calmly.
Cao Xiuxian: "Our Ling family is not like some blind people. I like Xia Ningxi, such a good daughter-in-law. She is beautiful and presentable. All the rich and powerful families in Lingcheng praise my son for being lucky to marry such a good daughter-in-law."
