Chapter 965: Okay, Then I’ll Get It Done Right Away!
They would sell the defenseless women and children to the black market. Those women and children who were treated like merchandise would then have their organs sold. This was one of their largest sources of income.
It was just that, at that time, Interpol had discovered that route of theirs, and the senator protecting them in America was preparing for the midterm election and didn’t have the time or energy to take care of them.
Their infuriated leader found another route and was planning to use some evidence against the US senator who had s.h.i.+elded them in the past… to threaten the US senator into helping them grow their business, else they would use the evidence to ruin that senator!
One of the terrorists refused to believe it. Whereas, because those abducted were foreigners and he thought they wouldn’t understand his words, another boldly said that the evidence was in the room where they executed the people. He was busy taking photos and had yet to send it to that senator when their boss received news that Jiang Ming’an had killed the younger brother of their top leader!
In a fit of anger, the boss led his men to kill Jiang Ming’an. Although they didn’t manage to capture Jiang Ming’an, when they got to the Jiang family’s heavy machinery and equipment company, they managed to kill Jiang Ming’an’s wife, so they could be considered to have taken their revenge…
Later, when Lin Nuan and Tuan Tuan were rescued, Fu Huai’an left with Tuan Tuan, and Lin Nuan heard that they were arranged to be sent to a naval vessel anch.o.r.ed at the harbor, to go home.
Although Lin Nuan had already heard from Fu Huai’an that there weren’t survivors from the T-324 flight in Tikrit City, after getting over her disappointment, Lin Nuan decided to try one last time. She would go to Tikrit City to look for Wen Moshen, and if she still couldn’t find him, she would give up and resign to her fate.
Before being taken to the car, Lin Nuan wanted to leave quietly using the excuse of going to the bathroom, but she was caught by the special forces soldier Liu Hong. Only then did she claim that she heard some things in the car, saying she wanted to go and look for more information on the human trafficking victims in order to rescue more people.
Liu Hong frowned and hesitated a while before accompanying Lin Nuan to look for the information. Although it was incomplete and messy, Lin Nuan did get her hands on the original copy.
Liu Hong didn’t take away the original copy.
He was a soldier, so he only complied with orders from his superiors. If he wasn’t given orders, it wasn’t within his realm of responsibility. He subconsciously a.s.sumed that Lin Nuan was a reporter who wanted to gather more information for the sake of news, so he didn’t question her about it.
On the way to the naval vessel, Lin Nuan was determined to stay. After some consideration, she handed the information to a reporter, hoping that he could expose this matter when he returned home, lest more people fell victim. This reporter was Chu Xun’s a.s.sistant at the time, and the deputy chief editor of Haicheng Daily now.
But later, Lin Nuan was still sent to the naval vessel and made to return home, instead of staying on in Iraq.
“In the car on the way to the naval vessel at the harbor, you handed the information you collected to a reporter. That reporter was Chu Xun’s a.s.sistant at the time, and he’s currently the deputy chief editor of Haicheng Daily. That day at the meal after drinking a tad too much, he spoke about Chu Xun and you. He couldn’t resist talking about this matter, saying that it was Chu Xun who took your information, gave him a large sum of money to shut him up, and fabricated a story about how she fearlessly delved into the terrorist organization. Add to that the fact that Chu Xun was indeed in Iraq at the time and was rescued at the same time as you guys, and because of her ident.i.ty as the missy of the Chu family, she even made it to the news back then. It felt like there was truth to her story because of this, and everyone believed her!”
Lin Nuan was surprised. Back then, after she returned home, she was immersed in her own confined world and didn’t pay attention to such news.
“That day at the drinking session, I happened to sit opposite the deputy chief editor of Haicheng Daily. Hearing him mention you and Chu Xun, I felt something was amiss, so, learning from Mu Taotao, I used my phone to take a short video of the conversation!” There was a smile in Fang Yan’s voice. “So, Nuan Nuan, I intend… to create the image of a model modern woman for you, different from now, when everyone thinks of your marriage when you are mentioned! Do you believe in me?”
Yes!
If Lin Nuan didn’t believe in Fang Yan, she wouldn’t have handed the agency and her own matters to Fang Yan entirely.
“I believe in you!” Lin Nuan said.
“I hope to make this movie as hot a topic as possible. This doesn’t only concern you but also Fu Tianci…” Fang Yan laughed softly. “I’ve already discussed things with Director Yang Rui. Fu Tianci will be in charge of singing the theme song for the movie. That child handed in the sample tape yesterday, and it’s not bad! I have a feeling this movie will win awards. Once this movie is nominated at film festivals, as the singer of the theme song, he will surely be invited to sing the song live. This can help Fu Tianci become a hot topic of discussion, and by then, we’ll strike while the iron is hot and release his first alb.u.m!”
Fang Yan was a woman of action. Since she had already signed the contract with Fu Tianci, she planned to groom him properly!
Over this time, Fang Yan had been making Fu Tianci train intensively. She was also busy looking for famous producers to tailor-make songs for Fu Tianci!
Fu Tianci had his own original compositions, but he still needed a professional to do it for him when it came to lyrics.
When Lin Nuan heard this, she knew what Fang Yan was going to say next. She smiled. “I got it. You want me to agree to expose the fact that the male lead’s stunt double is Fu Huai’an in order to promote the movie…”
“No one knows me better than Lin Nuan…” Fang Yan laughed out loud.
“Alright, I give my consent!” Lin Nuan said.
“Okay, then I’ll get it done right away!”
After Lin Nuan hung up, Song Yao frowned and waited anxiously for Lin Nuan’s explanation. Lin Nuan told Song Yao all about what happened in Iraq, plus what the deputy chief editor of Haicheng Daily said at the drinking session, according to Fang Yan.
Song Yao was shocked and surprised. After calming down, she said, “My Nuan was so outstanding since such a long time ago, I had no idea!”
Lin Nuan was rendered speechless.
Lin Nuan indeed hadn’t imagined that Chu Xun, who once differed so much from her in social status, would fall for her husband. She also hadn’t imagined that Chu Xun’s winning of the news award actually had something to do with her.
It was as if, since that time in Iraq, Lin Nuan became tightly bound to the people she had seen there…
Tuan Tuan, who was done changing his clothes, ran down the stairs. He was wearing a white sweater and looked like a flying glutinous ball as he leaped at Lin Nuan’s leg. Like an obedient baby, he looked up at Lin Nuan, tugging at his own clothes for Lin Nuan to see. “Mama!”
Tuan Tuan was wearing the parent-child matching outfit bought previously…
“Mama, change too…” The little one tugged at Lin Nuan, dragging her upstairs. When he came there, he had stuffed the parent-child matching outfit for all three of them in Papa’s luggage. Just now, when Tuan Tuan was changing his clothes, he suddenly recalled the parent-child matching outfit, so he wanted all three of them to change into it.
“I’ll go upstairs with Tuan Tuan first…” Lin Nuan, who was bent over because of Tuan Tuan’s tugging, turned her head around and said that to Song Yao.
Song Yao nodded.
After Lin Nuan got a clear explanation from Fang Yan over the phone, Song Yao was relieved.
Song Yao was older than Lin Nuan and Bai Xiaonian, so she subconsciously regarded Lin Nuan and Bai Xiaonian as her own younger sisters…
