As soon as the words were spoken.
The call was disconnected.
Chen Fang wanted to dial back, but the line was no longer picked up.
Obviously, Bacai wasn't interested in wasting ti talking with Chen Fang; all he wanted was Nanda.
A quick brake.
The car ca to a stop.
The call was on speakerphone, so Nanda had heard everything Bacai said.
"Shouldn't you tell about Bacai's identity now?"
Chen Fang asked.
Nanda let out a long sigh.
She said, "Strictly speaking, he's supposed to be my fiancé..."
Bacai's father is called Naiton, and he currently holds the position of the Commander-in-Chief of the Wanggan Army. He's different from Nanda's father, Wen Min.
Wen Min rose to prominence from a lowly position.
Naiton, on the other hand, cos from a well-established military family in Wanggan; his father once held a high-ranking position in the army, aning their family commands great respect within the military.
During Vijaya's administration.
Naiton was promoted to the Commander-in-Chief of the Army.
Before Badula planned his ard coup, he negotiated with Naiton, which, like the dealings with the Klo Clan, was another exchange of interests.
Badula promised that once he was in power, Naiton could continue as the Commander-in-Chief, and that Naiton's elder son, Bin Ya, would be grood to succeed as the next Commander-in-Chief.
This promise was undoubtedly a great temptation for Naiton.
Thus.
With the army's non-interference.
Badula was able to complete the coup and beca the current president.
To solidify relationships within the regi.
Naiton had his elder son marry Badula's eldest daughter.
And his second son, Bacai, proposed to Nanda.
In Wanggan, polygamy is allowed.
Before this, Bacai already had two wives, aning if Nanda married him, she would truly beco the "Mistress".
Having studied in Huaxia, Nanda naturally objected.
The wedding has been delayed indefinitely.
Another point of conflict is the casino business.
Under Bacai, there was an old casino called "Xinrun Casino", which was the best business in Dimang City before the Sapphire Casino began its operations.
However.
Nanda was better at operating casinos than Bacai.
Within a few years, Xinrun's business was halved by Sapphire.
This made Bacai unhappy.
Therefore, he sought out Nanda repeatedly, hoping to marry her. This way, not only could he acquire Sapphire, but Nanda's exquisite body would also be his plaything.
It seed like a win-win situation for him.
Bacai wanted Chen Fang to deliver Nanda to him so that they could consummate the marriage, rendering Nanda's objections futile.
"Can you seek help from your father?"
Chen Fang asked.
Nanda shook her head bitterly.
She said, "In Badula's governnt, my father, though the commander of the National Guard, still doesn't compare to the army. Besides, this matter is tacitly approved by General Badula, so actions between the younger generation won't be interfered with by them, as long as no one gets killed, Bacai can pretty much do whatever he wants…"
So, it seems reliance on solving the problem from higher-up isn't possible.
Bacai had many subordinates.
Nanda's strength paled in comparison to his.
Thus, rescuing Qingxuan seed nearly impossible.
Call the embassy for help?
No way!
Chen Fang imdiately dismissed that idea.
The current situation was of his own making, and if the embassy were exposed, it would confirm Huaxia's interference in internal affairs, which could trigger upheaval in international dia, leading to even deeper animosity from Badula towards Huaxia.
"This won't work either; the only one who might be able to help us now is Nunu."
Chen Fang said.
Nanda shook her head.
She said, "Impossible, the relations between the Klo Clan and Wan Clan are very tense, and they maintain only a superficial peace. If the Klo Clan gets involved, no one can predict what will happen next."
"It doesn't matter; Qingxuan must be rescued. We Huaxia people never abandon or give up on our compatriots."
Chen Fang said this with determination.
But deeper in his heart, there was another thought.
Years ago, Qingxuan's father left her and disappeared since.
He wouldn't let the sa thing happen again.
He could not leave this hapless woman unattended; he must save her.
The two of them drove back to the Klo Clan's village.
Seeing Chen Fang return.
Nunu was very pleased.
Upon hearing that they ca for help, Nunu agreed without hesitation.
But things usually aren't that simple.
Nunu called for Ang Den.
He explained the situation to him.
Upon hearing it, Ang Den imdiately opposed it vehently.
His reasoning was similar to what Nanda had said earlier, suggesting that the Klo Clan shouldn't interfere in the Wan Clan's conflict. After all, the relations between the two groups were too fragile; a misstep could put the entire Klo people at risk.
"Translate for ; I'll talk to Ang Den."
Chen Fang said to Nanda.
After Nanda nodded.
Chen Fang began to speak, "Brother Ang Den, I know you have your concerns, and I don't want to make things difficult for you. My plan is not to have a direct confrontation with Bacai, as that's his territory, and we don't have the strength. I suggest we gather a few skilled people, sneak in under the cover of darkness, and rescue my friend. If we can avoid direct conflict, all the better."
"No way, before Yu Lang left, he instructed us not to let anyone leave the village. I can't violate his orders."
Ang Den said stubbornly.
It was apparent.
This person was not easily convinced.
Seeing the hope of enlisting help was about to vanish.
Nanda suddenly spoke a series of words in the local language.
Unexpectedly, these words had an effect.
A look of hesitation appeared in Ang Den's eyes.
Then he said sothing more to Nanda.
Nanda excitedly told Chen Fang, "He agreed, he agreed to personally lead the team and will give you ten of the most skilled people."
Chen Fang was stunned.
He asked, "Why did he suddenly agree?"
"Don't worry about that, he agreed, in any case, they are making preparations now, and will set out once it's dark."
Nanda said excitedly.
After she said this.
Ang Den took Chen Fang to pick the personnel.
Given such a perilous task.
Chen Fang knew that every participant, if not battle-hardened, at least must have considerable skills.
Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to handle the complex situations.
After strolling around the village.
The ten candidates were finally chosen.
Each was a robust young man, obviously capable fighters.
