The ex-wife is rebellious, which makes the CEO feel troubled

Gu Huaijing's face froze instantly.

Before he could react, Ning Xi said politely and distantly: "Mr. Gu, please keep your distance from me in the future to avoid unnecessary rumors."

Gu Huaijing only felt a roar in his ears. His trembling fingers could hardly hold the phone. His body was shaking and he barely managed to steady himself by holding onto the table beside him.

But I didn't expect Ning Xi's next words to be even more resolute.

"That's it for now. I hope you can find your true happiness in the future."

After saying that, Ning Xi hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Ning Xi leaned back on the sofa, closed her eyes and took a deep breath, trying to calm her inner turmoil.

After a moment, she opened her eyes, checked the time, packed up her things, and rushed to the hospital.

In the hospital, as soon as Ning Xi stepped into the corridor, she saw medical staff walking out of Lu Ruoxing's ward. She nodded politely, but secretly reminded herself to be careful in dealing with the upcoming storm of public opinion.

She specifically told the medical staff not to reveal any information about the scandal to Lu Ruoxing, and the medical staff solemnly promised, which made her feel a little relieved.

Ning Xi lowered her eyebrows slightly. The public opinion about this matter fermented too quickly... especially from the grandmother's side...

She thought as she walked, and as soon as she arrived at Old Madam Wen's ward, she looked at Ning Xi with a kind face.

Ning Xi suppressed her emotions and tried to force out a smile: "Grandma, how do you feel today? Are you feeling better?"

"Better." Mrs. Wen replied.

She looked at Ning Xi, hesitant to speak, and asked tactfully: "Are you... okay?"

Ning Xi was stunned. Considering Madam Wen's previous attitude and recalling what she had just asked, what else was unclear to her?

"Grandma, I'm fine. You also know about the hot search, right?" Ning Xi felt a little nervous when she said this.

Madam Wen reached out to help Ning Xi gather her hair and nodded: "Well, I know everything. Are you serious?"

After all… Madam Wen’s eyes darkened and she narrowed her eyes slightly, secretly observing the expression on Ning Xi’s face.

Ning Xi looked serious and spoke in an extremely solemn tone.

"Grandma, I'm serious. As long as both our families agree, I will marry He Zhao."

These words were heard clearly by Wen Mochen who just pushed the door open. He stared at Ning Xi in disbelief.

He tried to dissuade her: "Xiao Xi, marriage is not a joke, and I remember..."

Ning Xi interrupted him, her eyes were particularly firm when she said this.

"Uncle, I know. I have thought about this matter carefully. Besides, I can feel He Zhao's sincerity, and the He family is very good to us, isn't it?"

Seeing this, although Wen Mochen still had doubts, he could see Ning Xi's determination.

At this time, Madam Wen nodded with satisfaction to show her support.

In the ward, other family members also arrived one after another, and after learning the news, they expressed their blessings.

Amidst laughter and joy, preparations for the wedding were put on the agenda.

"Our Xiaoxi is the little princess of the Wen family, so this wedding must be as grand as possible!"

"Deal, deal!"

Wen Qingqing didn't say a word from beginning to end. She looked worried and glanced at Ning Xi from the corner of her eye.

After thinking for a moment, she calmed down, walked up to Ning Xi, and said calmly, "Xiao Xi, I have something to tell you. Let's go out and talk alone, shall we?"

The two of them came to the corner outside the hospital corridor. Wen Qingqing immediately held Ning Xi's hand and asked, "Tell mom, did you agree to marry He Zhao because of grandma?"

It is true that no one knows a girl better than her mother. Wen Qingqing is more understanding than anyone else.

"Yes." Ning Xi replied.

Wen Qingqing sighed and said, "How can you be so reckless?"

Ning Xi saw the worry in Wen Qingqing's face, and she reached out and held Wen Qingqing's hand: "Mom, don't worry, He Zhao and I are just having a fake marriage."

This fake marriage is still a marriage, not to mention that the Wen family and the He family are both big families. Once the two families become related...

After all, Ning Xi was born after she carried her baby for ten months. How could she bear to see Ning Xi suffer any injustice?

"Mom doesn't agree. I don't want you to sacrifice yourself. Besides, you know what? Grandma just wants you to be happy from the beginning to the end, and she doesn't urge you to get married." Wen Qingqing persuaded.

Ning Xi saw Wen Qingqing frowning, so she reached out and gently smoothed her brows.

"Mom, I understand, but I just want grandma to be relieved as soon as possible... Besides, mom, you just saw that grandma is really happy, isn't she?"

Having said that, but... Wen Qingqing opened her arms and hugged Ning Xi.

"You have always had your own ideas since you were young..."

Ning Xi curved her eyebrows and took Wen Qingqing's hand: "Okay, Mom, let's go back to the ward."

At this time, He Zhao also arrived at the ward.

He greeted everyone obediently, calling out to people one after another.

James walked up to He Zhao and patted him on the shoulder: "You kid, don't let Ning Xi down in the future! Otherwise, I will not recognize you with my fist." As he said this, he clenched his fist.

Seeing this, He Zhao smiled heartily: "Don't worry, when I marry Ning Xi, she will be my treasure from now on, and I will definitely spoil her well!"

Then, they started talking about the arrangements for the wedding, and they were having a great time.

In this joyful atmosphere, Ning Xi quietly stood up, walked to the window, stared at the busy world outside, feeling mixed emotions.

She wanted to invite Ning Zhiyuan to attend her wedding. She seemed to have never seen him after coming back for so long. She wondered what his relationship with the Wen family was like now?

After all, in the past, fire and water were incompatible, but now...

"Xiao Xi, what are you thinking about standing here alone?"

Wen Qingqing's voice gently interrupted her thoughts. Ning Xi turned her head and forced a smile.

"Mom, it's okay, I'm just taking a look."

Wen Qingqing's eyes were full of concern. "Child, if you have something on your mind, tell mom. Don't hold it in."

Ning Xi paused, with complicated emotions in her heart. After hesitating for a moment, she finally mustered up the courage to express her thoughts.

"Mom, I...want to invite my dad to the wedding."

After saying this, she felt as if a huge stone had been lifted off her shoulders. However, she was afraid that this decision would hurt her mother, so she quickly added:

"But if you don't agree, I can not invite him."

Wen Qingqing sighed, her eyes complicated, "Silly child, he is your father. On such an important day, he should be present. Although mom has a knot in her heart, it is our adult business and should not affect you."

Ning Xi's heart warmed up, and her eyes reddened slightly, "Thank you, Mom. I understand."

Afterwards, Ning Xi decided to talk to Ning Miaofu again to learn more about her father.

She found her aunt and said hesitantly, "Aunt, I...I want to ask, have you contacted my father recently?"
