Chapter 293 Let's Go Home
Huo Nanxiao drove without saying another word.
As Xia Ningxi looked at the increasingly familiar scenery outside the car window, she vaguely realized that Huo Nanxiao was taking her back to the Huo family.
It was already very late.
The two children are waiting for them to return at the Huo family home.
Huo Xiuyuan and Qu Huilan wanted to fulfill their responsibilities as grandparents and take good care of the two children so they could sleep, but no matter what they said, the two little ones still refused to go back to their room to rest and kept waiting at the door for Huo Nanxiao to come and pick them up.
As the car entered the Huo family's old residence, the two little ones could no longer contain their excitement. Their big eyes sparkled and they were incredibly beautiful. Before the car had even come to a complete stop, they had already rushed over.
The two tiny little dumplings look very cute.
Huo Nanxiao's initially irritable mood eased a little when he saw the two little ones. He got out of the car, intending to pick them up, but they walked right past him without even glancing at him, heading straight for Xia Ningxi.
"Mommy, why are you so late? I've been waiting for you for so long!" Xia Xingxing said excitedly.
Xia Ningxi held Xia Xingxing in her arms and smiled slightly: "I have something urgent to take care of. Have you been waiting long?"
"Mmm." Xia Xingxing nodded obediently.
Huo Yuan said, "Mommy, can we go home now? I'm sleepy."
"Okay, let's go home now." Xia Ningxi took the two little ones' hands and prepared to leave.
Huo Nanxiao coughed lightly, reminding his two sons, "Can't you see me?"
Huo Yuan said, "I saw it. Is something wrong, Daddy?"
"Since you saw me, why didn't you say hello?" Huo Nanxiao retorted.
Huo Yuan said, "Dad, you don't even take us home this late, and you still have the nerve to ask me to say hello."
Huo Nanxiao's handsome face twitched violently, and for a moment he didn't know what to say to Huo Yuan.
Xia Xingxing then grabbed Huo Yuan's hand and said, "Let's ignore Daddy, we should go home."
"Okay." Huo Yuan nodded.
It was already quite late, and Xia Ningxi had difficulty getting a taxi with her two children, so Huo Nanxiao let them get in his car.
Xia Ningxi originally didn't want to pay attention to Huo Nanxiao, but after Huo Xiuyuan came out, he warmly invited Xia Ningxi and her two children to stay overnight.
Finally, to decline Huo Xiuyuan's enthusiastic invitation, Xia Ningxi got into Huo Nanxiao's car and left the Huo family's old residence in his car.
As soon as the car drove out of the gate, Xia Ningxi said to Huo Nanxiao, "Let's go back to my house."
Huo Nanxiao, who was driving, suddenly became serious and said, "It's too far."
"Not far."
As soon as Huo Nanxiao finished speaking, Huo Yuan sweetly added a sentence.
Huo Nanxiao's cold lips twitched slightly, but he said nothing, only glancing at Huo Yuan.
Huo Yuan said, "Daddy, I miss my little sister Chu Chu. Can we go back to Mommy's house?"
"No." Huo Nanxiao flatly rejected Huo Yuan's suggestion.
Huo Yuan muttered under his breath, "Daddy's so stingy, why won't he let us go back to Mommy's house?"
"I say no, and that's final." Huo Nanxiao's attitude was cold.
After Xia Ningxi got into his car, she couldn't leave on her own.
We arrived at Lanyuan very quickly.
The butler came out to greet them very warmly.
Xia Ningxi said nothing, took the two children's hands, and went straight upstairs.
The butler noticed something was wrong and swallowed back the words he was about to say, which he had originally intended to call out to Xia Ningxi. Looking at Huo Nanxiao's icy face, he dared not speak.
"Keep a close eye on the two children these next few days and don't allow Xia Ningxi to take them away," Huo Nanxiao suddenly instructed.
The butler said, "But what if the two young masters insist on leaving with the young mistress?"
"Can't you understand human language?" Huo Nanxiao asked, displeased.
The butler lowered his head and immediately fell silent.
Everyone in Lanyuan was on tenterhooks.
Xia Ningxi completely ignored Huo Nanxiao, and after returning to the guest room with the two children, she closed the door and ignored everyone who knocked.
Xia Xingxing asked, "Mommy, why did you come to pick us up so late? I thought you didn't want us anymore."
Xia Ningxi said, "No, how could I not want you? I'm just going to take care of some things."
"Are you going to Ninghai Hospital to handle some matters?" Huo Yuan asked from the side.
Xia Ningxi raised an eyebrow: "How did A Yuan know?"
"Mommy smells like a hospital, she must have just come back from the hospital. I remember that smell." Huo Yuan had an excellent sense of smell. He knew that Xia Wanwan had to take medicine every day, and that the medicine she took would have a strong medicinal smell. He would always have that smell on him when he came back from Ninghai Hospital.
Coincidentally, Xia Ningxi also had it.
Therefore, Huo Yuan immediately guessed that Xia Ningxi had been to Ninghai Hospital.
Xia Xingxing asked, "What are you doing at the hospital so late, Mommy?"
"It's nothing." Xia Ningxi didn't want to tell the two children about it.
Regardless of her relationship with Huo Nanxiao, Xia Ningxi hoped that she could handle it herself and not let the children be hurt at such a young age.
"It's eleven o'clock, go to sleep now," Xia Ningxi urged the two children to go to bed.
They were obedient, listening to Xia Ningxi's words and quietly climbing into bed.
Xia Xingxing asked, "Mommy, when can we go back to our own home? I miss my little sister Chuchu. She must be very sad that we're not home."
"I don't know either."
Xia Ningxi was also uncertain. Judging from Huo Nanxiao's appearance, he seemed to be planning to take the children away from her, so Huo Nanxiao would definitely keep a very close eye on the two children.
As Xia Ningxi had guessed, the number of bodyguards in Lanyuan had obviously doubled since her return. Without a doubt, these people were there to keep an eye on her.
Xia Ningxi ignored them and stayed with the two little ones to rest.
Huo Yuan was probably exhausted and fell asleep quickly.
Xia Xingxing, however, seemed preoccupied. After turning over, he noticed that Xia Ningxi was still awake and asked, "Did Mommy and Daddy have a fight?"
"Yes." Xia Ningxi did not deny it.
Xia Xingxing asked, "Why are you arguing? Is it because of Xia Wanwan?"
"Xingxing, if I were to separate from Huo Nanxiao, who would you choose?" Xia Ningxi asked very seriously.
Xia Xingxing replied without hesitation, "I'd definitely choose Mommy. Even if the sky falls down, I'd still choose Mommy."
"What if Huo Nanxiao tries to take you away by force?" Xia Ningxi asked again.
Xia Xingxing said, "I have legs of my own. No matter where I go, even if Daddy locks me up, I will run out and find Mommy."
Xia Ningxi was overjoyed. She held the little one beside her tightly, terrified of losing her child...
"Mommy, don't be afraid. My brother, sister, and I will always stay by your side." Xia Xingxing hugged Xia Ningxi tightly, rubbing her little cheek against hers.
Xia Ningxi smiled with relief and said softly, "Okay, I believe you."
"Let's go to sleep then, and we'll go home tomorrow," Xia Xingxing said.
Xia Ningxi fell silent. Tomorrow? Would Huo Nanxiao allow her to leave with the child?
Xia Ningxi thought that if she stopped Xia Wanwan's medication, Huo Nanxiao would have no choice but to agree to her request. However, she did not expect Huo Nanxiao to be so calm and collected, preferring to watch Xia Wanwan stop taking her medication rather than give up custody of the two children.
