His gaze was too scorching, making Xia Ningxi feel a little uncomfortable.

She didn't know why Huo Nanxiao looked at her like that. She always felt that he had something hidden in his heart. Could it be related to Xia Wanwan?

The only person who could make Huo Nanxiao so conflicted was Xia Wanwan.

Thinking of this, Xia Ningxi said, "I know you feel uncomfortable. It's not good for anyone to keep dragging this out. Maybe you can find Xia Wanwan and explain it clearly. She is in poor health and is being ostracized by the Xia family. Her life will not be easy."

"There is nothing much to say between her and me." Huo Nanxiao said calmly.

Xia Ningxi said: "Don't be too confident."

"After a while, I will divorce her." Huo Nanxiao's voice was firm.

Xia Ningxi frowned, looked into Huo Nanxiao's eyes with a complicated expression, and asked, "You knew she couldn't let you go, but you still wanted a divorce. Why?"

"You know it clearly." Huo Nanxiao said.

Xia Ningxi was stumped by these words. She opened her mouth but no sound came out.

Could it be that Huo Nanxiao was doing this because of her?

But they had already divorced, so what even if they had a child? Her affairs with Huo Nanxiao had already been settled, and she had not refused Huo Nanxiao's visit to the child, so he was now a free man.

Xia Ningxi chuckled, "No wonder the Xia family has always been hostile to me. It would be strange if they weren't angry if you treated Xia Wanwan like this. I know you are fickle. You want Xia Wanwan to live a happy life and be respected, and you also want me to live in harmony with you and have a happy family, but there is no such good thing in the world.

We are divorced, and the past is over. There is no need to keep entangled with each other. I no longer have the same feelings for you as before. Let me go, and you are also letting yourself go. "

Her voice was clear and pleasant, yet powerful, and every word she spoke drew a line in the sand.

This is also the difference between her and Xia Wanwan.

Huo Nanxiao used to feel very sorry for Xia Wanwan. He felt sorry for her being seriously ill, for her being bedridden all year round, for her being weak and unable to take care of herself and being bullied by others, so Huo Nanxiao wanted to protect Xia Wanwan and give her a stable home.

But even such a weak and helpless person, when faced with major issues, did not think of handling matters impartially, but instead used her advantage to suppress the matter and protect her despicable family members.

The Xia family has done so many evil things. Xia Wanwan said she was repentant, but she pleaded for her family all the time. If she hadn't defended her family like this, such a big scandal wouldn't have happened, Zhou Fenglin wouldn't have been so bold as to kill someone by car, and Xia Wanwan wouldn't have lost a kidney because of this.

Somehow, it seemed like she had brought everything upon herself.

If you say that Xia Wanwan is impossible, she does look quite pitiful.

But Xia Wanwan protected her family so much, even to the point of being unreasonable, which made Huo Nanxiao gradually dislike her. This is also the reason why Huo Nanxiao never went to look for Xia Wanwan.

Even though such a big thing happened, Huo Nanxiao didn't even think about explaining to Xia Wanwan, because he knew that no matter what the two said or did, Xia Wanwan would unconditionally protect Xia Luoluo in the end.

Now that we already know the result, there is nothing more to say.

Huo Nanxiao knew that Xia Ningxi no longer believed him. He did not make any explanation and just hugged Xia Ningxi quietly. However, his eyes were fixed on the computer. His fingers tapped on the keyboard to reply to the emails that had been piling up in his mailbox for a long time.

During this period, there were many inexplicable phone calls. At first, Huo Nanxiao would answer them, but after learning that they were all inquiries about Xia Luoluo, he hung up without hesitation and his face turned unsightly.

In the end, Huo Nanxiao even turned off his cell phone.

Xia Ningxi thought it was quite funny and couldn't help but tease him: "It seems that there are quite a lot of people paying attention to your situation. This matter can't be suppressed. I suggest you have a good talk with Xia Luoluo."

"Is it useful?" Huo Nanxiao asked back.

Xia Ningxi thought about it carefully: "It seems to be useless."

"Since it's useless, what else is there to talk about?" He lowered his head and met Xia Ningxi's gaze: "I do have a solution. You can take a few days off and live in the Imperial City. Over time, the rumors outside will naturally disappear."

Xia Ningxi was so angry that she laughed, "How dare you let me stay in the Imperial City and go out with you to shut up outsiders? I'm divorced from you. If I really stay here, Xia Luoluo will bring people to kill me tomorrow. She is counting on the baby in her belly to help her ascend to become a wealthy wife."

"She can't enter the Huo family." Huo Nanxiao replied.

Xia Ningxi rolled her eyes at him and said, "Then I won't get involved in your mess."

"Okay, just stay with the child for the next two days," Huo Nanxiao said.

Xia Ningxi took advantage of his inattention and broke free from his arms, "Focus on your work, I'll go take care of the kids."

Leaving behind a word, she left quickly.

Huo Nanxiao did not try to keep her, as he knew that Xia Ningxi still resented him.

There are still a lot of things waiting for Huo Nanxiao to deal with in the company, and Xia Luoluo, this troublesome guy, has been making trouble outside, causing Huo Nanxiao a lot of trouble.

The person who gave Huo Nanxiao even more headaches was Xia Wenhe. He was extremely arrogant now. Relying on the fact that Xia Luoluo was carrying a "dragon seed" in her belly, he monopolized a lot of business outside under the banner of Huo Nanxiao and even accepted a lot of benefits from others.

These things were all investigated by Ye Su outside, and the evidence is solid.

If the news goes viral, Xia Wenhe will face huge compensation.

The last time the Xia family went bankrupt was because Xia Wenhe was doing bad things outside, but he didn't learn his lesson. This time he used the same trick to raise funds, and he might even go to jail.

Before, Huo Nanxiao intervened only for Xia Wanwan's sake, but now Xia Wanwan's sake has been almost used up, and Huo Nanxiao can no longer indulge her.

There was a lot of noise downstairs. Huo Nanxiao walked to the window and looked down, only to find that there were three children chasing and fighting in the garden. Chuchu even knocked over a vase. The little girl was sitting on the ground crying pitifully, which was heartbreaking to see.

Fortunately, the two brothers came forward to comfort her immediately. Chuchu cried for a while and then found it a bit embarrassing, so she could only wipe away her tears silently and get up from the ground. She looked very stubborn, which made people feel distressed.

This is his child, Huo Nanxiao knows it better than anyone else.

He turned around and was about to go downstairs, but he heard the sound of a video call coming from the computer. It was Xia Wanwan calling. Huo Nanxiao's face darkened, and although he was not very happy, he still answered the video invitation she sent.

Looking at the woman on the other side of the computer, she still looked the same as when she was young, except that she was more haggard and thinner than before, and her sickly face only looked pitiful.

But even so, Huo Nanxiao couldn't let down his guard against her. He knew that she was well prepared.

"Is there something?" Huo Nanxiao's voice was very cold.

Xia Wanwan was not used to the overly cold voice and felt very upset.
