Chapter 261 Overjoyed
After dealing with Federico's matter, Nanchun and his group quickly left the concession.
Seeing that they were far away from the concession, Ah Fu breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Second Young Master, Second Young Madam, it is true that evildoers will be punished by heaven! At first, the foreign driver and bodyguard were standing by the car smoking and talking. We didn't even dare to get close to them."
"Yes, alas, I was so anxious at that time, afraid that I would not be able to complete the task." Xu Fei's heart was relieved, and he felt extremely happy at this moment.
"Then what?" Nanchun asked curiously.
"Then suddenly a man came, and it seemed that he knew them. The three of them chatted for a while, and the driver and bodyguard followed him in. We took advantage of this opportunity to tamper with the car. Oh, what a coincidence! This shows that we are doing justice, and even God is helping us!" Ah Fu said with a smile.
Bai Xun's expression changed slightly.
No wonder it went so smoothly.
It is definitely not a coincidence, someone is helping us secretly.
Nanchun touched his nose a little guiltily and said, "Yeah, what a coincidence."
It must be someone arranged by the Fourth Master.
In his letter to the Fourth Master, he wrote down the action plan formulated by Bai Xun, and asked the Fourth Master to arrange someone to assist him.
Nanchun glanced cautiously at Bai Xun beside her out of the corner of her eye.
I saw him frowning slightly, obviously he couldn't be fooled by this "coincidence".
Nanchun thought for a moment, then whispered into Bo Xun's ear, "It should be Master Sheng who is helping me. I mentioned to him that we want to move that foreigner's car."
Bai Xun nodded.
Nanchun slept well that night, without any dreams, until dawn.
He walked to the window and opened the curtains. The sunlight poured into every corner of the room, warm and dazzling.
Bai Xun opened the door and came in. Seeing him wearing thin pajamas and standing barefoot on the ground, he couldn't help but frowned.
He walked over quickly, picked up Nanchun and put him on the bed, then wrapped him in a quilt: "It's so cold, be careful not to catch a cold."
Nanchun asked expectantly, "How's it going? Any news?"
Bai Xun took out some clothes from the closet and handed them to him, nodding and saying, "The body and the car have been fished out. I guess the news of his death will spread this afternoon."
After hearing this, Nanchun said happily, "Now that he's dead, the foreigners in the concession who bullied us will probably have to live in fear for a few days. We can have a good New Year."
Director Li looked at the consul who had come to him personally to investigate the accident and said, "Mr. Consul, we've done a preliminary inspection and it's a car accident. The three people in the car were drunk, and it was snowing and the roads were slippery tonight. The car skidded and was hit hard. The driver, probably drunk and not sober, mistook the accelerator for the brake and rushed into the river."
The consul's face darkened as he snorted, "Do you believe it?"
Director Li smiled awkwardly and said, "Believe it or not... Anyway... isn't he already dead? You've already pointed out a clear path for Federico, asking him to return home and avoid the limelight, but he keeps putting it off and won't leave."
How many people in the concession had their businesses and personal safety affected by his presence? They didn't want to pay for Federico's actions. He had caused widespread resentment within and outside the concession.
"Mr. Consul, this matter has dragged on for so long, and so much pressure has been placed on you. You've done your best. Now that the person is dead, we have an explanation, and you weren't forced to hand him over. This is the best outcome, isn't it?"
Although the consul was dissatisfied, he did as he said.
Federico's accidental death gave an explanation to those angry people and saved his face.
He knew it was a homicide but couldn't pursue the matter, which made him feel a little helpless.
In the afternoon, the news spread that Federico had died tragically in a car accident falling into the river.
What a joy!
Before the New Year arrived, firecrackers were heard outside the concession.
Someone hired a band of musicians, who were beating drums and gongs, singing and dancing in the streets. Everyone's face was beaming with joy.
Bai's Trading Company.
Bo Song's face turned pale: "You guys did it, didn't you?"
Nanchun lowered her head, unable to hide the smile on her face.
Seeing this, Bo Song slammed the cup down on the table. "You're still laughing? Do you know that if you're found out, you'll all be dead!"
Bai Xun said, "Brother, this was done by me alone. It has nothing to do with Nanchun."
"No, young master, I am the mastermind, and Bai Xun was forced to do it..." Nanchun said hurriedly.
Bo Song rolled his eyes at them and snorted coldly, "Don't try that on me!"
Bai Xun said, "Brother, I don't think we are wrong. Miss Wei is from the Bai Family Village after all, and she deserves the protection of the Bai Family."
"Xundi, as the head of the Bai family, you must understand the importance of seeking benefits and avoiding harm. She was protected by the Bai family, so I didn't say anything when you took the risk to pay your respects and find her a grave.
"But killing foreigners is no small matter. If it's discovered, not only you, but the entire Bai family will be implicated. "Does that mean the rest of the Bai family will no longer be protected by the Bai family?" Bai Song said earnestly.
"I'm sorry, I didn't consider the overall situation. However, I have found someone to deal with the aftermath. Director Li has promised to help cover it up and mediate. The foreigners probably won't pursue the real cause of Federico's death." Bai Xun said.
Things have already happened, and things have come to this point. There is no point in dwelling on it any further.
Bo Song sighed and said, "I understand. You two should keep quiet for now. The New Year is coming soon, so pack up your things and prepare to go back to the old house to celebrate the New Year."
Nanchun's heart tightened, he missed his mother very much.
But, this time, I'm afraid...
Perhaps sensing Nanchun's hesitation, Bai Song said, "I've already sent a telegram to my grandfather, telling him that you will be in charge of the business in Yangcheng from now on. He won't force you to stay in Baijiazhai."
Nanchun finally breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Thank you, Young Master. By the way, Young Master, have you heard from Grandpa? Can he come home for the New Year this year?"
Bai Song was slightly startled, glanced at Bai Xun, and said, "Oh, he probably won't be able to come back. But... I sent someone to take a message. Let's see what he says. You know Mr. Nan's temper. Every time he searches for a tomb, he achieves his goal and never comes back."
Nanchun sighed and said, "It's been two years... Please tell him, Young Master. I miss him very much and hope he comes back soon."
"Of course, of course." Bo Song said with a smile.
Bai Xun held Nanchun's hand tightly.
He knew in his heart that Grandpa Nan was probably in great danger.
If Nanchun knew about this, he would definitely go to Xinchuanling to look for her at all costs.
But keeping it a secret from him like this is not a solution.
There will always be a day when the truth can no longer be hidden.
When that day comes, Nanchun will definitely be very disappointed in him.
