The mysterious vanishing of Dabao and Ning Ran later was much simpler.
Once it was dark, the mother and son went to the back of the cabin under the cover of Erbao.
But why couldn’t the group of people find them?
Because they played hide-and-seek with them. All they had to do was move to another location when they saw
lights coming their way.
With a genius like Dabao guiding his mommy in a game of hide-and-seek, there was no way anyone would be able
to find them.
Besides, Erbao was helping them out by distracting the crew whenever they got close to her mommy and brother.
Of course, someone did manage to find Ning Ran in the end.
Or rather, caught up to her.
Ning Ran could hide from everyone else in the darkness, except one.
Why? Because this person had a sense of smelling as sharp as a hound.
This person was Nan Chen, of course.
While he was searching in the forest, he could detect that faint scent of orange blossom.
It was very faint and mixed in with various other smells in the forest, but Nan Chen could detect it without fail.
So, he managed to track down Ning Ran who thought she was well-hidden.
But he did not say anything, nor was he frightened.
He didn’t believe that a dead person would be able to play hide-and-seek.
So when he found Ning Ran, he was overjoyed.
The joy of finding something he lost made him lose his composure. He didn’t ask why, and just brought the startled
Ning Ran and Dabao into his arms.
Ning Ran was also shocked by the hug and just stood there, unable to breathe.
In that moment, Nan Chen didn’t have any other distracting thoughts. He just felt happy that God had been so kind
to him and he was able to recover what he thought he had lost.
He felt like he had been to hell and back.
After the feelings of joy slowly faded, Nan Chen realized that he had lost his composure.

He actually hugged a woman he hated.
He awkwardly tried to distract their attention by asking Dabao about what happened.
Dabao told Nan Chen about his plan in detail, and obtained Nan Chen’s permission. Then, Nan Chen had everyone
continue their search for a little longer and called it a night.
Next, they began to plan how they would scare Luo Fei into confessing.
Although Nan Chen had given them his permission, but he was not prepared to participate in it too much.
He felt it was inappropriate for him, the great Mr. Nan Chen to participate in such acts.
So, he would leave the heavy lifting to Dabao and Ning Ran, while he observed the end results.
Actually, when Nan Chen knew that Ning Ran and Dabao were pretending to be dead, he already had a hunch that
Luo Fei was the culprit.
The process of proving it was just to let Ning Ran get her justice.
……
After Luo Fei was tied up, she knew she was done for.
After all the tricks she’s pulled, she only got herself in trouble in the end.
She knew what kind of person Nan Chen was, and once he found out about the truth, she would lose everything.
This was what she feared the most. She often had nightmares of Ning Ran marrying into the Nan family and then
she herself would end up living on the streets.
When Ning Ran and Dabao walked over, she glared at Ning Ran with a vicious look in her eyes.
“Game over, Luo Fei. You no longer have to act like a good person anymore, so I suppose this is a form of release
for you as well.” Ning Ran said.
“You b****! Coming up with a trick like faking your own death, you’re no better yourself!” Luo Fei shouted.
Dabao turned around, “Sihan!”
Erbao answered, and strutted over proudly with a little snake in her hand.
Erbao held the little snake up to Luo Fei’s collar, “Let’s put it in there, shall we?”
Luo Fei went pale, “Help! I’m guilty, I’m guilty!”
Erbao took the snake back, “You evil woman, how dare you harm my mommy! Hurry up and admit your
wrongdoing!”
“I already did!” Luo Fei was completely scared.
She was now clearly aware that this family was no pushover, especially this little witch holding the snake! She was
not one that she could afford to offend!
“Say it a few more times! Say it loudly!” Erbao shouted in her cute voice.
“I’m guilty! I’m guilty!”
“Louder!”
“That’s enough.” Ning Ran stopped Erbao.
Although Luo Fei was an evil woman, Ning Ran didn’t want her kids to go overboard either.
Adults can fight it out as much as they wanted, but they shouldn’t encourage their children to do evil. Even if one
was facing a wicked person, one shouldn’t let their children do evil out of hatred.
Erbao snorted at Luo Fei and walked away with her little snake.
A crew member walking towards them ran upon seeing the snake in Erbao’s hands.
Everyone couldn’t understand why the cute and beautiful Erbao loved carrying a snake everywhere she went.
Why wasn’t she afraid of it?
“Ning Ran, if you get Nan Chen to let me go, I’ll give you the USB flash drive.”
“This again? I don’t want that USB flash drive anymore, okay?” Ning Ran laughed coldly.
“No, you must want it! That’s something your mother left you before she died. Don’t you want to know what’s
hidden inside it?”
“Yes, I do want to know. But I’m not about to let you have your way with me for it. I have my boundaries.”
“We are siblings with the same father! Are you really okay with watching me get left here in these mountains like
this?”
“I am.”
Luo Fei was stunned for a moment, “Sister, I’m begging you, I made a mistake, please forgive me.”
Evil people are so hypocritical, threatening you a moment ago then pretending to beg for your mercy the next.
Ning Ran watched her performance in silence, and suddenly felt it was boring.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“That’s enough, you can stop the act. It’s boring. Although I was the person you harmed, I won’t make Nan Chen do
anything to you. He will decide what he does with you. I won’t kick you when you’re down, nor will I beg for you to
be spared.” Ning Ran said coldly.
Luo Fei let out a sigh of relief after hearing that.
Although there wasn’t any love between her and Nan Chen, she had been his honorary girlfriend for so many years
now. She believed that Nan Chen wouldn’t leave her in the mountains.
Nan Chen was a person of status and would not mistreat a girl too much. Luo Fei was certain of this.
So, she was most worried about what Ning Ran and the two kids would do to her.
Now that Ning Ran had promised not to do anything to her, it was good news for her.
“Ning Ran, as long as you promise to get me back to Jiangcheng, I will give you the USB Flash Drive, I promise.” Luo
Fei said.
Ning Ran nodded, “Okay, tell me, did you have anything to do with the kidnapping of my children?”
Luo Fei had already confessed to Zheng Lunlun about this, but Zheng Lunlun couldn’t tell anyone now since his
brain has been damaged.
So, Luo Fei was hesitant about whether or not she should tell the truth.
Ning Ran saw the look on Luo Fei’s face and knew she wouldn’t tell the truth.
“If you won’t tell me the truth, I’ll have Dabao poison you. Since you’ve poisoned us too, we’ll be even this way. As
for the USB Flash Drive, I don’t want it anymore. Mom has been gone for so many years now; I’ll just let the secrets
be bygones.” Ning Ran turned and walked away after saying that.
“Wait! I had nothing to do with the kidnapping of your children! I don’t have such manpower to organize such a
large scale kidnapping!”
This was what confused Ning Ran as well. Luo Fei was surely capable of pulling small tricks on her, but definitely not
to mobilize such a large number of professionals.
