Chapter 1026 Did you hire the assassin?
Xia Ningxi glanced at the injured person and left the hotel with the medical staff as soon as they arrived. As she was about to get into the ambulance, she subconsciously glanced at the hotel entrance.
"Family members, get in the ambulance quickly! The injured person is seriously injured and needs to be taken to the hospital immediately," the people in the ambulance urged her.
Xia Ningxi said, "I'm not a family member, I'm just passing by. You should take him to the hospital first."
After saying that, she turned and went back to the hotel.
The hotel had a lot of security personnel. After the incident, they immediately called the police and searched everywhere for the suspect.
Xia Ningxi knew the person was heading towards the stairs, and said to the lobby manager, "Check the surveillance footage. The person used the fire escape. If I'm not mistaken, they should have left through the back door."
The staff stopped Xia Ningxi from speaking and immediately led people to the fire escape to search, but found nothing. However, they found bullet casings on the ground. The type was unusual, indicating that they had come prepared.
When Huo Nanxiao's bodyguards arrived, they also searched the area with the security personnel. With them there, Xia Ningxi felt a little relieved. However, just as she was about to leave, she spotted a familiar figure.
That person... was Xia Luoluo.
The person was sitting in a taxi, passing by the hotel entrance, and in just a moment the car had driven far away.
Xia Ningxi couldn't see clearly, but felt that the person looked very familiar. She took out her phone and immediately dialed Xia Luoluo's number, but no one answered.
She guessed what was going on and immediately dialed Li Yancheng's number.
Half an hour later, Xia Ningxi appeared in front of a seaside hotel.
"She's staying inside. She arrived in Lingcheng six hours ago, but only just checked in. I wonder where she's been in the last six hours." Li Yancheng leisurely surveyed the hotel's imposing entrance, his voice tinged with a hint of sarcasm.
Xia Ningxi asked, "It should be very easy for the Li family to find out someone's whereabouts. If you really want to know what Xia Luoluo did in the past six hours, it's just a matter of making a phone call, and the answer will be delivered to your door."
Li Yancheng smiled indifferently: "Why would I ask about her?"
"Not interested?" Xia Ningxi asked curiously.
Li Yancheng said, "Of course I have no interest in that kind of person."
"That means you already know what she did," Xia Ningxi concluded, then asked, "She committed this murder, didn't she?"
“I didn’t say anything,” Li Yancheng immediately denied.
Xia Ningxi said, "You didn't say anything, but everything was written on your face, you know that."
"Anyone with a brain could guess that Xia Luoluo's appearance is related to this, okay? I don't have time to pay attention to such a minor character." Li Yancheng said with great disdain.
Xia Ningxi was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say.
“Since we’re already here, why don’t you go and say hello to your good sister?” Li Yancheng boldly suggested.
Xia Ningxi said, "Your dear sister."
"Is your surname Xia or mine?" Li Yancheng asked back.
Xia Ningxi was speechless.
However, Li Yancheng is right. Since we're already here, we might as well go and see what Xia Luoluo is up to.
She was staying on the 27th floor, the top floor of the hotel, in a luxury suite. However, the name registered under her name was not Xia Luoluo's ID card. If Li Yancheng hadn't investigated personally, he wouldn't have been able to find out that Xia Luoluo was there.
Xia Ningxi said, "Xia Luoluo couldn't have planned such a meticulous murder on her own. There must be someone secretly helping her. Can you guess who it is?"
"I won't guess, it has nothing to do with me." Li Yancheng directly distanced himself from the matter.
Xia Ningxi asked, "Could it be related to the Han family?"
"Who knows?" Li Yancheng still seemed clueless.
Xia Ningxi said, "You and Han Musen have a good relationship. Logically, you shouldn't be unaware of everything he's done. Does this mean your relationship has broken down?"
"What the hell is wrong with our relationship? We were just business partners. We wouldn't meet when we weren't working together. How could I possibly know what he did behind my back?" Li Yancheng retorted.
After thinking about it carefully, Xia Ningxi felt that what he said made some sense, so she decided not to ask any more questions.
Knowing that this matter was related to Xia Wanwan, Xia Ningxi simply rang the doorbell.
"Who is it?" came a wary voice from inside.
"It really is you." Xia Ningxi recognized it; the voice was undoubtedly Xia Luoluo's.
Xia Luoluo didn't expect Xia Ningxi to come to her door. When she saw Li Yancheng standing behind her, she immediately understood what was going on. She sneered, "You actually had someone follow me."
"What brings you here?" Xia Ningxi asked.
Without batting an eye, Xia Luoluo said, "My stomach is upset, so I came to Lingcheng to see a doctor."
“If you’re feeling unwell, why not get treatment in the capital? The doctors there are much better than those in Lingcheng,” Xia Ningxi said.
Xia Luoluo: "What do you know? I came here to ask someone to help me see if the baby in my belly is a boy or a girl. The regular hospitals won't let me see, so I have to go to other places."
“Your belly is only three months old, the baby isn’t fully developed yet, even if a doctor examines you, they won’t be able to tell,” Xia Ningxi said.
Xia Luoluo: "Then I won't trouble you, sister. I know what I'm doing. Did you come to me just to talk about this? I've never seen you care about me like this before."
"It's not too late to care about you now." Xia Ningxi smiled slightly.
Charlotte: "It's late, I want to rest."
“A few minutes won’t make a difference.” Xia Ningxi walked into her bedroom, glanced around, and smiled slightly: “You’re staying in a nice place. This apartment must cost at least ten or twenty thousand a night, right? When did Xia Wenhe become so rich?” Xia Ningxi was very curious.
Xia Luoluo said, "I've worked hard in the capital for many years, so it's not surprising that I'm staying in a nicer hotel, is it?"
Xia Ningxi said, "Why don't you use your own name to register your check-in information? Are you afraid of being found out?"
Xia Luoluo's beautiful face stiffened for a moment. She hadn't expected Xia Ningxi to be able to guess everything. She subconsciously looked at Li Yancheng, her eyes filled with anger.
"What are you looking at?" Li Yancheng asked, his face showing displeasure.
Xia Luoluo said, "Young Master Li investigated me without permission, which is illegal!"
"Do you have evidence?" Li Yancheng retorted.
Xia Luoluo clenched her fists: "You pervert."
"Ha, how laughable. You, a vicious woman, have the nerve to curse me? You failed to kill Xia Wanwan last time, so now you're planning to change your target? You think that by killing Huo Nanxiao, your unborn child can smoothly inherit his estate? How ridiculous. Do you think everyone is as narrow-minded and short-sighted as you? Even if Huo Nanxiao dies, you won't get a single thing from the Huo family." Li Yancheng sneered.
Suddenly exposed, Xia Wanwan's face stiffened, and she panicked. She hadn't expected Li Yancheng to expose everything so ruthlessly. She was terrified. "You're talking nonsense."
"Whether I'm lying or not, you know perfectly well," Li Yancheng sneered.
Xia Luoluo glared at Xia Ningxi, "You can hate me, but you can't be so vicious in causing me trouble. I didn't provoke you."
"You hired today's assassin, didn't you?" Xia Ningxi asked.
Charlotte: "I don't know what you're talking about."
Xia Ningxi said, "I can guess who did it. Huo Nanxiao is so smart, he couldn't possibly not know. I know you must have someone behind you. Once the truth comes out, the other party will immediately abandon you, and Huo Nanxiao will naturally target you first."
"Are you trying to frame me again?" Xia Luoluo was very angry.
Xia Ningxi was amused by these words. As long as Huo Nanxiao was willing to investigate, she couldn't escape.
Xia Ningxi was so angry because Huo Nanxiao had booked three suites at the hotel today. Huo Nanxiao would stay in one, Xia Ningxi would stay in one, and Huo Nanxiao's business partner would stay in the other.
The assassin probably mistook her for someone else; if she had entered Xia Ningxi's room, she would have been doomed too.
Xia Ningxi knew that Xia Luoluo not only wanted to get rid of Huo Nanxiao, but also wanted to get rid of her and the three children.
