Chapter 959 Daddy's having an affair
Xia Ningxi understood what she meant, but she wasn't angry at all. In fact, she found it quite ridiculous. She said, "And then?"
Xia Wanwan said, "I know you don't want to get involved, but Huo Nanxiao is truly sincere to you. He's been very, very good to you. This time, he was framed because of you. Are you really going to just stand by and watch Nanxiao be blamed?"
Xia Ningxi asked, "It was your own sister who slept with you, and it was your family who bribed reporters to publicize the matter. Instead of restraining your own family, you want me to solve this problem. Don't you think you're ridiculous?"
Xia Wanwan's eyes reddened: "I know everything you're saying, but what can I do? They are my family. I can't lay a hand on them, and I can't make them listen to me. There's nothing I can do."
“I can’t do what you can’t do,” Xia Ningxi replied.
Xia Wanwan bit her lip tightly: "Besides you, I don't know who else to ask for help."
"I'm sorry, I can't help you." Xia Ningxi's voice was extremely cold.
Xia Wanwan was somewhat agitated: "Are you really going to just stand by and watch Nan Xiao be ruined?"
“His reputation was already ruined when he married you. Now he’s just replacing you with your sister. It doesn’t matter what people say to him. Even if he marries a hundred more times, it won’t have any impact,” Xia Ningxi said.
Xia Wanwan trembled with fear, even her lips were shaking: "You're still blaming me, aren't you?"
"What kind of answer do you want? Or what do you want?" Xia Ningxi stared at Xia Wanwan with unusual indifference and said, word by word, "Tell me directly what you want me to do and what effect you want to achieve."
Do you want me to get rid of Xia Luoluo for you, or do you want me to step forward and clarify that you lied, or do you want me to protect your position so that you can live peacefully as the eldest daughter-in-law of the Huo family?
If that's all you want, then I'm sorry, I can't help you. Perhaps you could talk to Huo Nanxiao; only he can give you what you want, I can't.
Actually, Xia Wanwan contacted the wrong person.
The person in this world who least wants to get involved is Xia Ningxi. She doesn't know what Xia Wanwan is thinking. She first ruined her marriage and took her place. Now that Xia Luoluo has interfered, she's asking Xia Ningxi for help. Does she think Xia Wanwan has no temper?
Xia Ningxi was speechless. She glanced at the time and said, "It's getting late. I have my own work to do. You should go."
"Ningxi, besides you, I don't know who else to ask for help." Xia Wanwan excitedly grabbed Xia Ningxi's hand.
Xia Ningxi lowered her eyes and said, "You shouldn't have come to me, no matter who else you're looking for."
The two could not reach an agreement on this matter, and Xia Wanwan was heartbroken but could do nothing about it.
Xia Ningxi ignored her and turned to leave the office.
Her colleagues all looked at her, wanting to ask her something, but afraid of displeasing Xia Ningxi, they could only keep their mouths shut and dare not say a word.
"Are you done with your work?" Don asked.
Xia Ningxi nodded: "Mm."
Don: "Everyone has seen the news, don't you have anything to say?"
Xia Ningxi said, "What can I say? This has little to do with me. I can't control who Huo Nanxiao is with."
Ellie quickly leaned closer: "So it's true that Xia Luoluo climbed into my bed?"
"Let's assume it's true for now," Xia Ningxi replied.
Ellie: "My God, this family is more outrageous than the last. How could they do something like this? Don't they have any shame? I never thought she would be so shameless."
Tang En: "It's standard procedure. Xia Luoluo looks like she has a wicked heart. I knew it the first time I saw her. Actually, the person who most wants to marry Huo Nanxiao is not Xia Wanwan, but Xia Luoluo. She will stop at nothing to achieve her goal."
Ellie: "This is going to be interesting. Xia Luoluo is Xia Wanwan's younger sister. She came to Ning Xi because she didn't want to deal with this herself. Now that Ning Xi doesn't want to talk to her, I'm very curious to see how the two sisters will tear each other apart."
Tang En sneered: "How badly can it get? I reckon Xia Wanwan will end up swallowing her anger. I've seen through her a long time ago. Xia Luoluo did so many shameful things before, and she still went against her conscience to help Xia Luoluo clear her name. Now that Xia Luoluo has already slept with her, what else can she do?"
"It's like dogs fighting," Ellie said with a laugh.
The other colleagues all laughed upon hearing this, as the current situation was indeed like that.
Xia Luoluo's character is already well-known, but Xia Wanwan still protects her. She should have known that she would eventually suffer the consequences.
This is her retribution.
It all started because of her indulgence.
When Xia Wanwan walked out of the office, she could clearly feel countless sharp gazes cast upon her from all around. Following the direction of those gazes, she saw a group of people looking her up and down, with a hint of mockery in their eyes.
She felt extremely embarrassed, biting her lip tightly, but couldn't utter a single word, and left dejectedly.
As Xia Wanwan stepped out of the laboratory, she could no longer hold back her tears. She cried so hard that she attracted a crowd of onlookers.
Standing upstairs, Xia Ningxi could clearly see Xia Wanwan's disheveled appearance.
The phone suddenly rang; it was Huo Nanxiao calling.
After disappearing for a whole day, he finally made contact. Xia Ningxi answered the phone and asked, "Where are you?"
“At your door,” Huo Nanxiao replied.
Xia Ningxi quickly looked around, "I don't see you."
Ding-dong—
The elevator doors opened, and Huo Nanxiao stepped out.
Xia Ningxi said, "Didn't you see Xia Wanwan?"
"I didn't see it," Huo Nanxiao replied.
Xia Ningxi was skeptical: "She just left through the main entrance, there's no way you couldn't have missed her."
Huo Nanxiao: "I'm not here to see her."
“But Xia Wanwan came to see me, and it’s about you. The person you should see right now is her, not me,” Xia Ningxi said.
Huo Nanxiao's handsome face darkened. Clearly, he was very dissatisfied with Xia Ningxi's answer. Suppressing his anger, he asked, "Don't you have any questions?"
“We’re divorced. At least in China, the Han family won’t touch me. From now on, you don’t need to pay attention to anyone who threatens you, as long as it involves me,” Xia Ningxi said.
Huo Nanxiao's expression darkened further.
The air around us seemed to freeze at that moment.
"Daddy?" A clear voice broke the oppressive atmosphere.
Huo Yuan's eyes gleamed with excitement as he ran towards Huo Nanxiao, exclaiming, "Daddy, it really is you!"
Huo Nanxiao picked up the excited Huo Yuan in his arms, his eyes softening slightly: "Didn't you go to school today?"
Huo Yuan innocently said, "Many reporters chased after us to interview us, and they even said that Daddy had found a mistress. Mommy was worried that something would happen to us, so she didn't send us to kindergarten."
Did you find a mistress?
Huo Nanxiao's face darkened instantly.
