He had embezzled a lot of money before. After Xia Wanwan got into trouble, Xia Wenhe immediately sold all the assets under Xia Wanwan's name and used the money to speculate in stocks.

At the end of the day, no one knew how much was left. However, seeing how Xia Wenhe was in such a hurry to find Xia Ningxi to support him in his old age, it was estimated that there wasn't much money left.

Xia Ningxi no longer paid any attention to Xia Wenhe outside.

Xia Wenhe waited from day till night until Huo Nanxiao came home, and then Xia Wenhe went to stop Huo Nanxiao again.

Huo Nanxiao didn't have a good attitude towards him. He looked at the guard unhappily and said, "Why is he here?"

When Xia Wenhe heard Helian Xiao's tone, he immediately explained: "Xia Ningxi drove me out. Mr. Huo, no matter what, I am still your father-in-law and your elder. You can't just ignore me, right?"

"Are we familiar with each other?" Huo Nanxiao's eyes were cold.

Xia Wenhe said: "Ning Xi is also my child."

"I don't remember she had a father." Huo Nanxiao's voice was cold.

Xia Wenhe's eyes turned red: "Then I am also Wanwan's father. Don't you love Wanwan the most? Now that Wanwan is gone, I'm the only old man left alone. Are you going to ignore me too?"

Huo Nanxiao said, "Xia Wanwan and I have no relationship anymore. What does her father have to do with me? Xia Wenhe, this is the Huo family. If you don't want to have your legs broken and dragged out, get out of here."

Xia Wenhe was very angry: "I am your elder, how dare you? Aren't you afraid of being laughed at? Your Huo family is also a well-known family. If you take action against your father-in-law, everyone will poke the Huo family in the back."

Huo Nanxiao did not answer Xia Wenhe's words, but turned and left.

Xia Wenhe didn't understand what he meant and thought Huo Nanxiao was scared. He subconsciously wanted to follow Huo Nanxiao into the Huo family, but was beaten by two bodyguards.

Xia Wenhe was stunned, covering his head and yelling, "Asshole, stop it! Why are you hitting me? Why are you hitting me!"

The two bodyguards fought even harder.

Huo Nanxiao didn't even look at Xia Wenhe and went straight home.

Seeing Xia Ningxi watching TV with the three children, Huo Nanxiao said nothing, took off his coat and walked in.

When the three children heard the footsteps, they turned around in unison and found that it was Huo Nanxiao who came back. They looked at each other, said nothing, and continued watching TV.

"I'm back." Huo Nanxiao took the initiative to speak.

Xia Ningxi ignored him.

Xingxing and Chuchu took a bite of the apple in silence.

Huo Yuan still gave Huo Nanxiao some face and said "oh" softly, then stopped talking.

This was not the first time they had ignored Huo Nanxiao, and he had long been accustomed to it.

Huo Nanxiao took the small cake he bought for the children and put it on the table, saying, "I just passed by a cake shop and bought some. They have all kinds of flavors. Do you want to try some?"

Chu Chu glanced at Huo Nanxiao subconsciously.

Huo Yuan also watched secretly.

Xingxing walked over and found that Huo Nanxiao had bought more than a dozen flavors. He snorted coldly, "Daddy, is he trying to please us on purpose?"

"No." Huo Nanxiao denied.

Xingxing said: "We have eaten in kindergarten, so we are not hungry."

Huo Nanxiao asked: "What did you eat in kindergarten?"

Xingxing replied, "A lot. I'm full. I don't want to eat any more cake. Daddy can eat these by himself."

Huo Nanxiao lowered his eyes and said, "I bought too much. I can't finish it all by myself. Can you help share some?"

Xingxing raised her chin proudly.

Huo Nanxiao had already unpacked the small cakes and said, "Just take a bite each."

Xingxing was unmoved, but Chuchu couldn't help swallowing.

Huo Nanxiao took the initiative to hand a piece of strawberry-flavored tiramisu to Chuchu: "This strawberry is delicious."

"You begged me to eat it, but I didn't take the initiative to eat it." Chu Chu hummed softly.

Huo Nanxiao rubbed Chuchu's head and gave her a small cake: "Give it to your mommy."

"Okay." Chuchu was very obedient. She took the small cake and ran to Xia Ningxi, handing it to her like a treasure: "Mommy, this cake is delicious, try it."

Xia Ningxi took it, took a bite and said to Chuchu: "You are still young, you can't eat too many sweets, understand?"

"Okay." Chu Chu nodded obediently.

Xia Ningxi said to Huo Nanxiao: "Buy less of these snacks in the future."

"Okay." Huo Nanxiao was not angry. He just listened to whatever Xia Ningxi said.

He could see that Xia Ningxi's attitude towards him was very cold. Huo Nanxiao also knew in his heart that he had done something wrong and it was reasonable for Xia Ningxi to treat him like this.

However, although they lived under the same roof, Xia Ningxi seldom spoke to him. If it weren't for the children around, Xia Ningxi might not say a word to Huo Nanxiao the whole day.

Huo Nanxiao also knew that Xia Ningxi didn't like him, and Xia Ningxi tried not to eat the things he bought, which made Huo Nanxiao feel uncomfortable.

He asked the housekeeper to take the three children away and said to Xia Ningxi, "Are you still angry with me?"

"You think too much." Xia Ningxi denied.

Huo Nanxiao said: "I can see that you are angry with me. I have sent Xia Wenhe away. No one will bother you during this period of time."

Xia Ningxi said: "Whether he leaves or not, it doesn't have much impact on me. I'm going to Lingcheng tomorrow."

Huo Nanxiao's eyes darkened: "What are you going to Lingcheng for?"

Xia Ningxi said: "There is a patient who is more difficult to deal with. I will go over and perform surgery on him."

"When will you be back?" Huo Nanxiao asked.

Xia Ningxi said: "If it's fast, it will take one month, if it's slow, it will take three months."

Huo Nanxiao looked at her face and said, "So, you don't plan to go home at all?"

"I'll leave the three children to you to take care of temporarily. If you can't take care of them, you can send them to my brother. He can help me take care of the children." Xia Ningxi put down the remote control in her hand, turned around and was about to leave.

Huo Nanxiao held her hand and pulled her back.

"Anything else?" Xia Ningxi looked up at him.

Huo Nanxiao said: "Are you hiding from me?"

Xia Ningxi shook her head: "No."

"You are lying." Huo Nanxiao exposed her.

Xia Ningxi replied: "I have my job. I can't spend my whole life revolving around you."

Huo Nanxiao said with a serious face: "I don't ask you to be around me all your life, but at least don't hide from me all the time."

"I didn't." Xia Ningxi denied.

"You have!"

Huo Nanxiao's voice was very sharp.

Xia Ningxi tried to break free from Huo Nanxiao's grip, but his hands were holding her tightly, and Xia Ningxi couldn't move at all. She was a little angry.

"Let me go!" Xia Ningxi said angrily.

Huo Nanxiao lowered his eyes and looked at her: "If you are away on business for a long time, I can go to Lingcheng with you."

"Why are you following me?" Xia Ningxi asked back.

Huo Nanxiao replied: "If you don't want to live in the Huo family, you can live in Lingcheng. The place you lived before was too small. I will buy you a manor. You can live in Lingcheng with your children. It will be convenient for you to work and research."

Xia Ningxi couldn't help laughing when she heard this. She looked into Huo Nanxiao's eyes and asked word by word, "You're so smart, can't you see why I'm leaving?"

"I can't tell." Huo Nanxiao replied.

Xia Ningxi said: "Because I want to keep my distance from you. I want to develop in Lingcheng on my own and be apart from you."

Huo Nanxiao's eyes were complicated: "And then?"

"Nothing more." Xia Ningxi was very indifferent.

Huo Nanxiao said firmly, "I don't agree."

"I'm not asking for your advice." Xia Ningxi didn't intend to pay attention to him.

Huo Nanxiao was not angry either: "Whatever you want to do, I won't stop you. I have already completed the procedures for the child's transfer. If you want to go to Lingcheng, I will send the child to Lingcheng to study. You just need to work with peace of mind, and I will take care of the rest."

Xia Ningxi didn't say anything, but she was very annoyed in her heart. Unfortunately, she couldn't do anything about Huo Nanxiao, so she could only give up.

Xia Ningxi ignored Huo Nanxiao and went upstairs to pack her things.

When Tang En called, Xia Ningxi had almost finished packing. She took a look at the several large boxes full of children's clothes and toys, and said to Tang En, "I've almost finished my work."

Tang En asked: "Did Huo Nanxiao agree to come to Lingcheng?"

"No." Xia Ningxi replied.

Tang En said, "Then can you come?"

Xia Ningxi said: "Aren't there still a few operations waiting for me to perform? Of course I will go."

Tang En: "Actually, you don't have to come. I can also perform these operations. I asked you to come because I heard that Xia Wenhe has been causing trouble for you recently, and I don't want to worry you too much."

Xia Ningxi walked to the French window, looked at the dark night outside, and sighed helplessly: "Huo Nanxiao has sent Xia Wenhe away. He won't bother me again during this period. I can go to Lingcheng anytime, but..."

"Just what?" Tang En asked.

Xia Ningxi said: "Huo Nanxiao has completed the transfer procedures for his child, and he will go to Lingcheng with me."

"Really?" Tang En was surprised.

Xia Ningxi said: "He is not joking."

Tang En said, "Then let him do whatever he wants. You can't let him block your path to development, right?"

Xia Ningxi felt that Tang En was right.

She booked a flight for tomorrow and flew to Lingcheng early the next morning.

As their team took root in the country, Xia Ningxi's fame grew, and many people came from far away to see her for surgery.

After arriving in Lingcheng, Xia Ningxi was much busier than before. She had no extra time to take care of the children, so all three children were left to Huo Nanxiao to take care of.

In the end, for convenience, Huo Nanxiao simply bought a villa near Xia Ningxi's workplace and moved in with his children in Lingcheng.

The three children initially disliked Huo Nanxiao, but as Xia Ningxi became busier and busier, Huo Nanxiao was the one who accompanied them most of the time, and gradually, the children no longer had such a big problem with Huo Nanxiao.

The family of four looked forward to Xia Ningxi coming home early every day after finishing her work.

Huo Nanxiao recalled that during the first two years after Xia Ningxi married him, he had a lot of work to do and was extremely busy every day. He came home very late, but every time he came home, Xia Ningxi was waiting for him.

Day after day, year after year.

Xia Ningxi must have loved her very much at that time, right?

Huo Nanxiao never thought that one day he would become the original Xia Ningxi.

He suddenly understood why Xia Ningxi's feelings for him were becoming less and less.

Huo Nanxiao calculated the time and went to the hospital on time to wait for Xia Ningxi to get off work. After a long time, people in the hospital couldn't help but laugh at Huo Nanxiao.

Huo Nanxiao ignored her and continued to pick up and drop off Xia Ningxi to and from get off work every day, rain or shine.

But this time, Xia Ningxi didn't show up until 10 o'clock in the evening. The nurse on duty even reminded Huo Nanxiao: "Doctor Xia is off work and is no longer in the hospital. Mr. Huo doesn't have to wait any longer."

"When did she get off work?" Huo Nanxiao was surprised.

The nurse said, "She got off work at seven. Didn't she tell you? It seemed like she left with Dr. Lu. They said they were going to have dinner together."

"Which Doctor Lu?" Huo Nanxiao asked.

The nurse said, "He is an expert that our hospital recently hired at a high price. He is very good-looking, young and handsome. Most importantly, he has excellent skills. Everyone in our hospital likes him very much."

Huo Nanxiao's handsome face suddenly darkened and he walked quickly towards the door.

Nurse: "Mr. Huo, you didn't take your clothes."

"Throw it away." Huo Nanxiao left a word and walked away quickly.

After leaving the hospital, he called his assistant and said, "Go check where Xia Ningxi went."

In less than ten minutes, Huo Nanxiao received an address.

It is a park in Lingcheng.

Hearing that there would be a fireworks show tonight, Xia Ningxi followed Dr. Lu to the park to watch the fireworks show.

No wonder Xia Ningxi didn't answer any of his calls.

Huo Nanxiao was very angry and drove to the park immediately.

Before they even reached the door, the traffic was already blocked outside. Huo Nanxiao parked the car on the side of the road and sent a message to Xia Ningxi: "Where are you?"

In less than two minutes, Xia Ningxi replied: "Outside. What's up?"

Huo Nanxiao: "With whom?"

Xia Ningxi: "Colleague."

Huo Nanxiao almost laughed when he saw these two words. What a colleague! He didn't go home late at night and went outside to watch the fireworks show with his male colleague.

Huo Nanxiao called the person in charge of the fireworks show, and soon the park canceled the fireworks show for tonight.

Huo Nanxiao didn't leave either, but sat in the car waiting for Xia Ningxi to come out.

After waiting for about half an hour, I saw Xia Ningxi and a very handsome man coming out of the park's gate. The two were talking and laughing, and they were very close to each other.

Huo Nanxiao thought about it carefully. Although he had lived with Xia Ningxi during this period, Xia Ningxi had always treated him with a cold face and rarely smiled at him, let alone smiled so happily.

Huo Nanxiao's anger suddenly surged up uncontrollably. He opened the car door and walked towards Xia Ningxi.

At this time, Xia Ningxi was discussing work issues with Dr. Lu. Suddenly, she saw Huo Nanxiao walking towards them and was startled.

"Are you cold?" Doctor Lu took off his coat and put it on Xia Ningxi.

The next second, his coat was torn off by Huo Nanxiao and thrown on the ground.

Doctor Lu looked at Huo Nanxiao in bewilderment: "Who are you?"

"Thank you, she is not cold and does not need your clothes." As he spoke, Huo Nanxiao had already put on his coat and threw a handful of money into Dr. Lu's arms.

Dr. Lu was stunned: "What do you mean?"

Huo Nanxiao suppressed his anger and said, "Don't you understand? You should leave now!"
