Huo Nanxiao did not go to confront Xia Wanwan. He thought there was no need for that because she knew very well that all this was Xia Wenhe's trick.

There was no way Xia Wanwan would betray him.

Ban the Xia Group.

This was Huo Nanxiao's order to his subordinates.

Almost overnight, Xia Group's stock price hit rock bottom.

Xia Wenhe was extremely anxious about this matter and asked for help from everyone, but no one helped him.

Xia Wenhe was very angry outside, so he took out all his anger on Xia Wanwan.

In less than a week, Xia Wanwan, who had just recovered a little, was sent to the Imperial City Central Hospital because of liver deterioration. After treatment, there was no sign of improvement, so Huo Nanxiao sent her to Lingcheng and asked Brian to be the attending physician.

Brian was very depressed and pushed Xia Wanwan out on the spot. He didn't intend to take over this patient. Later, her condition was too critical and she could lose her life at any time, so Brian had no choice but to take over this patient.

After taking over Xia Wanwan, Brian discovered many problems. For example, there were many scars on Xia Wanwan's body, and it was not possible to determine whether it was self-harm or intentional injury.

Brian simply called the police, but when Xia Wanwan woke up, she denied that anyone had intentionally hurt her, and the police were helpless.

Brian didn't want to cause trouble for himself, so he told Huo Nanxiao about it.

Huo Nanxiao appeared in the hospital near the end of the get off work day and met Xia Ningxi who had just returned from the laboratory.

Huo Nanxiao was holding a black insulated box in his hand. When he saw Xia Ningxi, he subconsciously hid the box behind him.

Xia Ningxi noticed the subtle movement and smiled, "Are you here to see Xia Wanwan?"

Huo Nanxiao did not deny it.

Xia Ningxi said, "It just so happens that Brian hasn't gotten off work yet. You can go find him to find out what's going on."

"No need." Huo Nanxiao said in a low voice.

Xia Ningxi said: "I suggest you go meet him, because Xia Wanwan has many suspicious injuries on her body."

Huo Nanxiao: "I know."

Xia Ningxi was surprised: "Do you know what happened to her injury?"

Huo Nanxiao said: "Everyone in Imperial City is laughing at her. My divorce from her has dealt her a huge blow. It's normal for her to be upset. I'm sorry."

"Why do you want to apologize?" Xia Ningxi wondered.

Huo Nanxiao said: "I can't bear to watch her die."

Xia Ningxi tightened her grip on the document. Although she had long known that Huo Nanxiao had different feelings for Xia Wanwan, her heart couldn't help but tighten when she heard him defending Xia Wanwan like this. She didn't know if she was heartbroken.

The feeling of nothingness and powerlessness almost enveloped Xia Ningxi's body. She took a deep breath and said to Huo Nanxiao, "Take good care of her."

Huo Nanxiao said, "Come with me to see her."

"No, I have things to do."

Xia Ningxi rejected his invitation and went downstairs quickly.

By the time it was time to get off work, everyone had left one after another, and there were fewer people in the hospital.

Xia Ningxi met Lin Jiangbei who was taking a walk on the first floor. He was supported by Tang En and walked with difficulty, taking one step at a time.

"Hey, sister-in-law, it's time to get off work." Lin Jiangbei waved at Xia Ningxi excitedly.

Xia Ningxi, who was already in a bad mood, blushed when she heard him say that. She scolded him, "Don't talk nonsense."

"I'm not talking nonsense. If you marry my eldest brother, you will be my sister-in-law, right?" Lin Jiangbei asked.

Xia Ningxi answered seriously, "I married Ling Xiao to register our child. We are not a formal couple, so don't call me that."

Lin Jiangbei said, "Isn't it the same? We've got the marriage certificate, so you're my sister-in-law. I just saw Huo Nanxiao walking in, guess who moved in? It's Xia Wanwan! You didn't expect it, did you?"

"I really didn't expect that... you're so sick and still have the mood to gossip about other people's family affairs." Xia Ningxi added slowly.

Lin Jiangbei chuckled, "Gossip is a characteristic of Lingcheng people. Let me tell you, I heard that Xia Wanwan suddenly became seriously ill because she was abused. I guess it was her family that did it, so she didn't dare to say a word when the police came."

"You know a lot." Xia Ningxi complained.

Lin Jiangbei: "Don't look at me as seriously ill, I am the first to eat melons, and I also heard that because Xia Wanwan is depressed, Huo Nanxiao has no intention of divorcing her. Sister, you can only be my sister-in-law."

Xia Ningxi poked his face: "Stop talking nonsense. I've already told you that I'm not familiar with your eldest brother."

"You will become familiar with each other if you spend more time together and see each other more often." Lin Jiangbei said unseriously.

Xia Ningxi said to Tang En, "Send him back quickly, and don't let him come out and spread rumors all day long."

Tang En put Lin Jiangbei back into the wheelchair very neatly.

"I haven't finished yet." Lin Jiangbei was unconvinced.

Tang En said, "Don't provoke her. Can't you see that she is in a bad mood today?"

"I can see that. She's in a bad mood because Huo Nanxiao doesn't want a divorce. Am I just trying to comfort her? Don't we still have my eldest brother? My eldest brother is handsome, rich, and has no other girls. He doesn't flirt with other girls. He's really a very good person. She can really consider living a good life with my eldest brother."

Lin Jiangbei shed tears with every word, and he almost raised his finger to guarantee that Ling Xiao was a perfect man.

Tang En directly covered his mouth, "You talk too much."

"Woo woo, I'm a patient, what are you doing? Are you trying to rebel?" Lin Jiangbei struggled.

Tang En said, "There are many people pursuing Xia Ningxi. No matter how many times you take turns, it won't be your eldest brother's turn. You are just daydreaming."

"What? Are you interested in my sister-in-law too? I'm warning you, she's married to my eldest brother. Even if you're colleagues, you can't do that. Stay away from my sister-in-law. I'll be keeping an eye on you." Lin Jiangbei became more and more excited as he spoke.

Xia Ningxi was also convinced. She held her aching temple and said to Tang En, "Send the person back."

"Okay." Tang En was very quick and Lin Jiangbei disappeared in a flash.

Without anyone chattering around, Xia Ningxi's mind finally became a little clearer.

She walked on the deserted cobblestone road, feeling the different ups and downs under her feet, and her heart was a little heavy.

She didn't know why, maybe she still had feelings for Huo Nanxiao, so she paid attention to everything related to Huo Nanxiao.

Walking to an empty bench, she picked up the flowers that had fallen on the chair and sniffed them, "They smell pretty good."

"Do you like magnolias?"

A very magnetic voice came from behind.

Xia Ningxi turned around and found Ling Xiao was there too.

"Why are you here too?" Xia Ningxi was surprised.

Ling Xiao said: "I got separated from Jiang Bei and ended up here without realizing it."

Xia Ningxi pointed to the exit and said, "That's the inpatient department. You can go this way."

Ling Xiao didn't move.

"It seems like you have something worrying about you." Xia Ningxi said.

Ling Xiao said: "No. But I can see that you are in a bad mood today. Is it because of Huo Nanxiao?"

"No." Xia Ningxi denied.

Ling Xiao said: "I have been in the business world for many years, and I can see through what ordinary people are thinking at a glance."

"Since Mr. Ling is able to see through people's minds, you should know that I don't like others to expose my scars," Xia Ningxi said.

Ling Xiao picked a magnolia flower and placed it in her palm: "Only by pruning properly can you go a long way."
