Chapter 25 is not for you

When Xia Xing received the news and rushed over from home, he saw Nan Yu with blood on her hands, calmly telling the police, "They're the ones who wanted to kill me."

He looked in that direction and was immediately stunned.

Nine burly men lay severely injured in the alley, while another burly man crouched in a corner, trembling with fear.

On the outermost edge was a skinny man, as thin as a bamboo pole, covered in blood, sitting immobile against the wall.

His face was contorted with rage, as if he wanted to tear Nan Yu apart alive. He kept saying, "Nan Yu, I won't let you go. You just wait."

Nan Yu sighed and said to the police with an innocent look, "Look, he still wants to kill me."

The police officer standing nearby paused for two seconds before saying, "We have a general understanding of the situation. If you have any further questions or need more information, we will contact you again."

Xia Xing snapped out of his daze, concealing his complicated expression, and quickly stepped forward. "Hello, officer, I'm Miss Nan's assistant, and this is her lawyer, Attorney Sun Lu."

He then pointed to the woman behind him wearing black-rimmed glasses, "She will be in full charge of this case from now on. She will negotiate with you, and we will fully cooperate if needed."

Sun Lu handed her business card to the police officer and then nodded to Nan Yu.

Nan Yu raised an eyebrow, looking at the two people with surprise.

After getting into the car, she finally spoke up, "Assistant Xia, what brings you here?"

Xia Xing explained, "The police called Mr. Huo's office, and I answered the phone. After I told Mr. Huo, he told me to come over immediately to handle it."

As he finished speaking, he glanced at Nan Yu's pale face through the rearview mirror and asked, "Miss Nan, are you alright?"

Nan Yu covered the gruesome wound on her arm and said calmly, "It's nothing."

Remembering that Sun Lu was going to the police station to continue dealing with the matter, she said, "Assistant Xia, I can handle this myself, so there's no need to trouble Attorney Sun. Please let her go back."

Xia Xing drove without answering until they arrived at the hospital, before getting out of the car, at which point he finally spoke.

“Miss Nan, you are now Mr. Huo’s wife, and your affairs will have a certain impact on the company. If this matter is not handled properly, it will have a great impact, especially since it involves murder.” “You don’t need to feel guilty. Everything Mr. Huo has done is entirely for the sake of the company and the Huo family’s reputation, not for your sake.”

He paused, his expression becoming even more serious.

"Miss Nan, let me add one more thing: please consider the Huo family before you do anything in the future, and don't cause so much trouble."

Upon hearing this, Nan Yu's eyes flickered slightly, and she bit her lip. "I understand. Please thank him for me and tell him that I will keep my distance from him and keep our marriage a secret from now on. I will never cause you any more trouble."

"This unexpected accident was due to my poor handling of the situation. I'll consider it a debt I owe him, and I will be more careful in the future to avoid repeating it."

After saying that, she got out of the car and went into the hospital to treat the wound on her hand.

Xia Xing followed behind her, not forgetting the things President Huo had told him.

"Miss Nan, there's one more thing. Mr. Huo heard that the old lady gave you two keys..."

Nan Yu suddenly stopped in her tracks, her eyes slightly red. She turned to look at Xia Xing and tried to interrupt him calmly.

"Don't worry, I won't be staying in those two houses. But I didn't bring the keys with me today. I'll get them for you another day."

Xia Xing responded, "Yes, Miss Nan."

He glanced down at Nan Yu's fair arm, which was now covered in blood and grime, with the wounds on her arm gaping open to reveal the flesh inside.

You can vaguely see the bone; it looks extremely painful.

Looking up again at that pale yet determined little face, I suddenly felt a lump in my throat.

Wasn't he going a bit too far?
