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.
