Reborn as the spoiled male wife of the mortal enemy

Chapter 258 The One Who Cleans Up the Aftermath

Nanchun knew that Sheng Zexi knew the murderer because it was the Fourth Master who told him.

When the Fourth Master sent someone to investigate the background of this foreigner Federico, he discovered that he had contacts with Sheng Zexi and often attended the dances held by Sheng Zexi in the concession.

Nan Chun immediately said, "We can use Sheng Zexi's dance party to get rid of this person without anyone noticing."

Sheng Yu'an said, "My nephew is very cunning. He won't do such a thankless job. Isn't the New Year coming soon? I will hold a New Year's ball then."

"It's too risky. You have never held a dance in the concession before, and you don't know the murderer at all. You suddenly held a dance and invited the murderer, and in the end the man died. Isn't this telling others that you killed the person? Wait a minute, I'll go ask the foreign merchants I cooperate with." Nanchun frowned.

Before I could go to Daniel to inquire, Mr. Sheng called me.

Nanchun was a little hesitant about whether to tell Baixun about this.

But this matter involves the Fourth Master.

If he were to discover his relationship with the Fourth Master, then Grandpa's whereabouts...

Making Bai Xun choose between him and the Bai family and watching Bai Xun endure pain and suffering is not what Nanchun wants to see.

Although he knew that this scene would come sooner or later.

But he still hoped it could be later, hoping that the two of them could have a little longer happy time.

Seeing Nanchun's worried look, Bai Xun asked, "What's wrong?"

Nanchun looked at him, hesitant.

Just then, Xu Shuisheng came in.

"Second Young Master, Second Young Madam, the eldest young master is on his way back."

"Didn't you say you would come back during the Chinese New Year? Why are you coming back early?" Bai Xun asked in surprise.

Xu Shuisheng smiled awkwardly and said, "I heard that he doesn't need to keep an eye on things in Yuncheng for the time being."

Nanchun knew in her heart that this was just an excuse.

The eldest young master rushed back in a hurry, probably because of the death of the second Miss Wei and the fact that he and Bai Xun went to pay their respects and published an advertisement in the newspaper.

That matter had to be dealt with quickly. Once the eldest young master returned, it would be difficult for him to contact the fourth master again. But he had just been there yesterday, and going again today would be too conspicuous.

In the afternoon, Nanchun asked Afu to deliver two bottles of wine to Mr. Chunxiao.

"Afu, please send the wine over. I promised Mr. Chunxiao that I would give it to him."

"Yes."

Chunxiao received the wine and was a little confused.

He didn't ask Nanchun for wine yesterday.

Chunxiao thought for a moment and said, "Fourth Master, I don't like drinking white wine. Is this for Nanchun and you?"

Sheng Yu'an took the wine and examined it carefully. There was nothing wrong with it. The box containing the wine was very exquisite, with patterns of pine, cypress, mountains and rocks painted on it.

Sheng Yu'an frowned.

Nanchun was reminding him that Bai Song, the eldest son of the Bai family, was coming back from Yuncheng. Bai Song still had doubts about Nanchun, so with his return, Nanchun had to be careful.

"Chunxiao, don't look for Nanchun unless there's something urgent in the next few days."

With Sheng Yu'an's instigation, newspapers and magazines continued to press forward. People learned that the murderer, Federico, not only spent lavishly in the concession, lived a carefree life, but also brazenly declared that he could kill as many people as he wanted and no one could stop him.

This beast is so arrogant, he has no regrets or sympathy at all!

People's anger reached its peak. For a time, not only outside the concession, but also inside the concession, chaos began to break out, and foreigners were attacked from time to time.

Director Li was extremely worried. Without waiting for Bai Xun to contact him, he took the initiative to contact Bai Xun.

"Second Master Bai, what's your plan?"

Bai Xun said calmly, "Director Li, the only way to resolve your dilemma now is to pay your debt with blood!"

Director Li frowned and said, "If I could kill him, I would have done it long ago. Why wait until now? The concession said they would never hand him over."

"You can't, but others can." Bai Xun said.

"What do you mean?" Director Li sat up straight.

"There are more than one or two people who want to kill him now. And it is possible that the car skidded and had an accident on the road in the middle of winter," said Bai Xun.

Director Li's eyes rolled around.

Yes, if something happened to Federico...

Isn't this matter resolved?

"We have to leave no trace at all so that the foreigners can't find any evidence. Otherwise, if another murderer shows up and the foreigners demand justice, it will be endless, right?" Director Li said.

Bai Xun said, "Of course. I just hope Director Li can have a say. The man is already dead, and if they keep harping on about it, it will only intensify the conflict, and the foreigners in the concession will be left feeling terrified."

"Of course, of course. Don't worry." Director Li said with a smile.

Bai Xun did not avoid Nanchun when he spoke to Director Li.

Nanchun looked at him in surprise after hearing this: "You..."

Bai Xun smiled at him and said, "I told you that Miss Wei is under the protection of the Bai family."

Nanchun was both moved and happy.

Bai Xun is different from the head of the family and the eldest young master. He is a true gentleman.

Seeing that he was surprised, Bai Xun smiled and said, "Why? Are you surprised?"

Nanchun said worriedly, "I know you're a good person. But you did this without asking the Patriarch's opinion. If he knew, he would definitely be furious. The young master came back in such a hurry, probably because he was afraid we would act impulsively, right?"

Bai Xun said, "I know, but this is my style. I also want to use this incident to tell them that I won't act according to their wishes. I have my own ideas and methods. If grandfather and brother can't accept it, I won't be the head of the Bai family."

Nanchun looked at him, her heart beating fast.

perhaps……

Bai Xun can really stand on his side.

"Actually... I asked Master Sheng for help." Nanchun said.

"Sheng Zexi?" Bai Xun frowned slightly.

"That foreigner had contacts with Master Sheng. I heard that he often attended the dances held by Master Sheng in the concession. Master Sheng's house in the concession is facing the river and there is a dense forest next to it." Nanchun said.

"You want to take advantage of the dance to do it?"

Nanchun pursed her lips and said with a guilty conscience, "He hasn't agreed yet. I'm sorry for hiding it from you."

Bai Xun reached out and touched his face and said, "Nanchun, I don't want to force you to tell me everything. I understand that you want to keep some of your own little secrets. But I think I should know about dangerous things like this."

Bai Xun was angry.

Nanchun hugged him affectionately, then kissed the corner of his mouth and smiled with squinted eyes.

"I was worried you'd get into trouble! The Patriarch and the eldest young master would definitely not agree to your involvement in this matter, and it's so dangerous. You're really amazing, you've thought it through and even found people to clean up the mess!"

Sometimes Bai Xun hated himself for being soft-hearted towards Nanchun.

Nanchun said something nice to him and acted coquettishly.

He couldn't be angry with him.
