Chapter 1040 - Bai Xiaonian Had Always Been a Person Who Was Sharp With Her
Liang Mulan let out a cry in surprise, seeming a little agitated. She then tried to restrain her emotions, her eyes turning red.
Liang Mulan and Lin Nuan were separated by the long table between them. Her smile was both that of happiness and gratification. Her gaze brushed over Lin Nuan, Cen Mo, and Song Yao, then she nodded. “It’s perfect!”
That’s right. It was perfect. What could be better than how things were right now?
She had found her brother, her sis-in-law was pregnant, and she herself was pregnant as well.
Before Lin Nuan and the others left, Liang Mulan took out the big red packet she and Lin Jingquan had prepared earlier on for Cen Mo and Song Yao. She told the two of them that this would be their home in the future and that they could come back whenever they wanted to.
Liang Mulan was especially concerned now that she knew Lin Nuan was pregnant. She packed a pile of nourishing stuff that was good for pregnant ladies and didn’t stop until they almost couldn’t fit it all in the trunk. Despite this, she still wasn’t assured. She said that from tomorrow onwards, she would head to the Fu residence to take care of Lin Nuan and Song Yao!
Both of them were pregnant, and in the past, there was still the experienced Auntie Li at the Fu residence. However, Auntie Li had retired and gone back home. Furthermore, there was also Tuan Tuan around. The more Liang Mulan thought about it, the more worried she felt. She said that before she found a good auntie to take care of Lin Nuan and Song Yao that no one could stop her from going to the Fu residence.
Lin Jingquan then got the servants to bring out the toy he had bought for Tuan Tuan at the airport when he went overseas to play golf with his friend. He said that when he saw it, he felt that this drone was fascinating and thus bought it for his treasured grandson to play with.
Cen Mo stood at the side, holding onto the red packet the Lin family had given him, feeling very warm inside.
When Lin Jingquan got in trouble in the past, Cen Mo heard that he had prepared for the worst possible scenario. He had split his assets into three portions, giving a portion to both Lin Chen and Lin Ran. Lin Nuan was entitled to a portion of it as well!
Previously, Cen Mo didn’t believe that after Lin Jingquan had brought up someone else’s daughter for so many years for nothing that he would develop such strong feelings that he’d give her a part of his assets!
But now, seeing how well Lin Jingquan and Liang Mulan treated Lin Nuan, Cen Mo believed it!
It turned out that there was really kinship beyond blood ties, just like how the Lin family treated Lin Nuan.
On the way back from the Lin residence, Cen Mo, who was driving, saw Lin Nuan drop her gentle smiling appearance. She hadn’t stopped using her phone.
Although she told her parents in the Lin family not to worry, Lin Nuan was really worried about Lu Jinnan and Bai Xiaonian.
Lin Nuan made a few calls, but Bai Xiaonian didn’t pick up any of them. Lin Nuan put down her phone and then called Fang Yan and Miss Xia, hoping that she would be able to help out with something.
Lin Nuan also called her connections who worked for the government to find out about the situation.
Lin Nuan managed to find out some things from the call. It was probably because of her status as the wife of Fu Huai’an, who was the Kaide Corporation’s chairman, that they didn’t hide anything from her. They said that the son of the ambassador of the United States Embassy had probably been captured by now.
After receiving this call, Miss Xia called. She said that almost everyone in the media knew that the son of the United States’ ambassador had been arrested, and all of them had rushed to his residence. Those who went there earlier even managed to capture the scene of him being arrested.
Moreover, the situation when the ambassador’s son was brought away was the same as when Lu Jinnan had been taken away in the United States—there wasn’t any official explanation given!
The only difference was that Lu Jinnan had been secretly taken away back then. This time around, the son of the United States Embassy’s ambassador had been openly taken away by China’s law enforcement.
Miss Xia and Fang Yan could be said to have deep connections in the circle, and their news was definitely reliable.
When Lin Nuan heard this piece of news, she let out a long exhale.
Regardless of whether the son of the United States Embassy’s ambassador had committed a crime, it was clear what the country’s stand was for him to be arrested at this time!
When Canada had apprehended the vice-president of a Chinese corporation, the government had only captured Canada’s ex-diplomat, knowing that the United States had been the one behind this!
This time around, since the United States didn’t want to uphold their reputation, China wasn’t going to stand on ceremony either. We’ll also be inviting your ambassador’s son to our country’s prison cell for a visit!
As for why we captured your ambassador’s son, it’s very simple. It’s for the same reason you caught the president of one of our country’s corporations!
This news created a big commotion on the internet, with everyone saying that the government was really such a b*tch to be doing this! But they liked how things were handled!
Although Bai Xiaonian didn’t pick up the calls, Lin Nuan still sent her a message with this news.
At this moment, Bai Xiaonian was doing what Fu Huai’an had told her to do—living her life as usual. She followed her schedule and took part in a talk show. The topic naturally led to Lu Jinnan.
Bai Xiaonian had always been a person who was sharp with her words. She wore a white suit and had her legs crossed as she sat on the sofa. She sneered and spoke fluently in an American accent with a humorous tone. “Previously, the United States hid behind Canada and created trouble over the matter with 5G, abducting the vice-president of one of our country’s corporations! This time around, news of our country successfully developing a new turbine was just released when the Kaide Corporation’s president was arrested. Tsk…”
Bai Xiaonian’s “tsk” caused the audience to smile and clap.
“I have no idea when abduction became a norm for the United States in dealing with foreign affairs. I also realized why they say that… the United States is a powerful country!” Bai Xiaonian shrugged, appearing as if she wasn’t afraid of getting into trouble. “There’s a saying in our country that has the meaning of using one’s strength to bully the weak. The United States’ strength should be referring to that strength.”
In the United States, what the politicians detested the most were the people working in television stations and media. They seemed to be naturally born to take different positions from the government. Even the president who had just assumed his title had jokingly expressed his dissatisfaction with a few television stations and members of the media at his inauguration banquet.
Therefore, people like Bai Xiaonian were especially popular with those working in the media.
The host smiled and said, “But I heard that this time around, the turbine project that China was working on was led by Mr. Ran Chaoqian from the De Niro Company’s turbines research team. Someone said that the turbine developed by China was stolen from the United States!”
Bai Xiaonian appeared to be at a loss. “Previously, the United States also said that we stole their 5G technology. Did the United States manage to come up with the 5G technology and system program? This time around, the United States was also the one to develop the turbine before we did? So we have stolen the turbine that the United States had yet to come up with? I admit that the United States is the most developed country across the globe in terms of military and technological prowess. However, you can’t say that someone else stole from you just because they managed to come up with something you couldn’t! Based on this logic… if other countries come up with something the United States has yet to come up with… they must have stolen it from the United States?”
