Chapter 918 What is that?!
Zhou Fenglin has now regained consciousness, and the Ling family will soon confront her.
Xia Ningxi was also eager to see how Zhou Fenglin would defend himself in the end, but no matter what, she couldn't escape responsibility.
Zhou Fenglin heard from somewhere that Xia Ningxi hadn't been killed in the accident, and he was depressed for a whole day. After that, he started pretending to be sick. No matter who came to her, Zhou Fenglin used the same story: he was seriously injured and unable to take care of himself.
When asked about the car accident, he simply lied and said that he accidentally pressed the accelerator instead of the brake, and that it was all a misunderstanding.
She hasn't fully recovered and hasn't been discharged from the hospital yet. The police plan to take her away after she's fully recovered.
But Zhou Fenglin didn't give the other party that chance at all, and directly pushed everything onto Xia Wanwan.
She knew that Huo Nanxiao would never really let Xia Wanwan die.
Xia Ningxi had also guessed this. She had been observing Huo Nanxiao and was worried that he would interfere. Fortunately, he had been extremely busy lately and had little time to meddle in other people's business.
As for Xia Wanwan, her condition has not been good. Huo Nanxiao found many doctors for her, but none of them were very effective. In the end, they could only rely on Tang En and his team's skills to prolong Xia Wanwan's life.
After her injuries had mostly healed, Xia Ningxi started going back to work, which inevitably meant meeting with Xia Wenhe.
During this time, Xia Wenhe even ignored Zhou Fenglin, focusing all his attention on protecting Xia Wanwan, his cash cow, fearing that she would be gone.
When Xia Wenhe saw Xia Ningxi, his eyes were terrifyingly cold, as if they were poisoned. Anyone who didn't know the situation would think that she was the one who bumped into Xia Wanwan and caused her injuries.
Out of curiosity, Xia Ningxi asked, "What's wrong with Xia Wanwan lately? Why hasn't she gotten any better after all this time?"
Brian said, "One of her internal organs was ruptured. We put her on an artificial ventilator. She's awake now, but her condition is getting worse."
“She was already in poor health, and this time the injury was so severe that it almost cost her half her life,” Xia Ningxi said.
Brian replied, "That's beyond my control. It's not my fault. She's lucky to be alive. Others wouldn't be so lucky. She just happened to have the car accident near our lab. Otherwise, she would have died long ago, just like Zhou Fenglin."
To be precise, if it weren't for having top-notch doctors on staff, Zhou Fenglin's family wouldn't have been so lucky.
But it was precisely this point that made Brian very dissatisfied.
The person he had so diligently tried to save was the one who nearly caused Xia Ningxi and the others to lose their lives; he truly felt a pang of regret.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have saved them in the first place," Brian apologized to Xia Ningxi with deep remorse.
Xia Ningxi shook her head: "You don't need to apologize to me. No doctor would ignore a patient."
"Sigh." Brian sighed and left.
Xia Ningxi has been mostly fine these past few days, mainly because her injuries haven't healed yet. The lab doesn't dare let her in, and Ling Xiao also told her to rest more and found another doctor to take care of Lin Jiangbei.
She was quite relaxed.
In the middle of the afternoon, while everyone else was busy, she had nothing to do but send text messages to Huo Yuan's smartwatch and chat with them.
Just as they were engrossed in their conversation, they heard a murmur outside. Xia Ningxi was puzzled, so she went outside to look and discovered that Ling Shuang had taken two lawyers to find Xia Wanwan.
Xia Wenhe also got into a fight with Ling Shuang over this matter, and the two even started fighting in front of everyone. Xia Wenhe even shouted that the Ling family was bullying him by abusing their power.
More and more people gathered around, and some even took out their phones to record the scene.
Ling Shuang glanced around and snapped, "What are you taking pictures of?"
Many people were so frightened that they withdrew their hands and dared not take pictures so blatantly, but that doesn’t mean they were afraid to take pictures.
There are still quite a few people secretly recording videos with their phones.
Ling Shuang's eyes grew colder and colder. She turned her gaze to Xia Wenhe and said, "Zhou Fenglin and Xia Wanwan committed intentional homicide and almost killed two doctors from our team. You can't deny this."
Xia Wenhe snorted coldly: "You're talking nonsense. Zhou Fenglin didn't do it on purpose. She just mistook the accelerator for the brake and accidentally hit someone. How can you say it was intentional murder?"
I know Miss Ling is powerful and influential, and doesn't take someone like me seriously, but I'm not stupid enough to let you accuse me like that.
Xia Wenhe absolutely denies this matter.
Ling Shuang said, "I'm not here to argue with you. Whether you admit it or not is meaningless to me. I've already brought in a lawyer. This matter should be handled as it should be."
She gave the lawyer behind her a look, and the two of them immediately headed towards Xia Wanwan's hospital room.
"You're not allowed to go in!" Xia Wenhe angrily spread his arms, blocking the doorway.
Ling Shuang said, "President Xia, I advise you not to provoke me. While I still have some patience and am willing to sit down and talk things over with you, cooperate with me obediently. You don't want Xia Wanwan to be locked up as soon as she wakes up, do you?"
"She is Huo Nanxiao's wife, how dare you lay a hand on her?" Xia Wenhe said angrily.
Ling Shuang laughed: "Huo Nanxiao's wife? How ridiculous. Do you really think I don't know how she got into Huo Nanxiao's bed?"
"Shut up!" Xia Wenhe's face turned red.
Ling Shuang didn't care at all: "Scared? Wasn't what I said true? Let me tell you, this time even Huo Nanxiao can't protect your whole family!"
"Heh, Miss Ling, do you really think too highly of yourself? Do you think you can control everything just because you're the eldest daughter of the Ling family? In terms of wealth, you probably can't even compare to Huo Nanxiao, can you?" Xia Wenhe sneered.
Seeing Ling Shuang pause noticeably, he guessed that she must be afraid, and couldn't help but sneer inwardly.
But the smile only lasted for two seconds before Ling Shuang's merciless mockery was heard.
"If it were you, would you be willing to gamble your company and give up your best partner for a swindler? If you lose the Ling family as a partner, it will be very difficult for Huo Nanxiao to find another person in the country with such wealth to cooperate with."
Ling Shuang paused, her contemptuous gaze sweeping over Xia Wenhe from head to toe. She scoffed, "What makes you think you can make Huo Nanxiao give everything for your wife and daughter? A liar? A murderer? Huo Nanxiao wouldn't help you if he had any brains."
So, what is Ling Shuang afraid of?
Is she really afraid that Huo Nanxiao will come knocking on her door?
She was afraid that Huo Nanxiao wouldn't come looking for trouble. As soon as Huo Nanxiao made a move, the Ling family would immediately make a big fuss, which would not only terminate the cooperation between the two parties, but also demand huge compensation from Huo Nanxiao.
No matter what they do, the Ling family will not lose out.
"Drag him away," Ling Shuang snorted coldly, giving the order to the bodyguards behind her.
Xia Wenhe said angrily, "If you dare to touch me in the slightest, I will call the police!"
Ling Shuang kicked him to the ground and spat in disgust: "What a piece of trash!"
