Chapter 109 Send Him On His Way
"Mr. Wang."
When the doorman saw Wang Zijin coming, he hurriedly opened the door.
"Is your eldest young master here?"
"exist."
Wang Zijin drove the car into the yard, parked downstairs, and jogged up to the second floor. He pushed open the door, and the room was filled with smoke. He frowned, squinted his eyes, and fanned the air with his hand.
"Hey, Bosong, are you cooking with firewood?"
Bo Song glanced at him indifferently and took a puff of his cigar with an expressionless face.
"Are you disappointed to see me? There's no point in being disappointed, I'm already here. Let's go, there's a performance at Happy City today, and the famous star Li Rou is going to sing. I begged and pleaded for two tickets." Wang Zijin said, loosening his tie.
Bo Song was uninterested: "Not interested."
"What's wrong with you? Who is so blind as to offend you? I heard from Fugui that you haven't been to the company for the past two days. Even when Xiaodie came to look for you, you didn't show up." Wang Zijin pulled over a chair and sat on it.
Bo Song took his legs off the table and put out the cigar in his hand.
"Xundi and Nanchun are coming."
"Well, I know. Isn't Bai Xunlai just what you want? Aren't you eager to hand over the Yangcheng affairs to him? So you can be free and have a happy life all day long?" Wang Zijin took a cigar from the box and put it under his nose to smell it.
"That was in the past. Now he is a firecracker with a belly full of anger. Not only did his grandparents take a concubine for him without his consent, but Nanchun's grandfather Xunling disappeared and he couldn't find him after searching for him for so long. My grandfather wrote to me and asked me to persuade him well." Bai Song sighed with a sad face.
"If you ask me, your grandfather is quite mean... He let you do all the dirty work, and now he's letting you be the bad guy. Since he wanted Bai Xun to be the head of the family, he should have let him know the truth from the beginning. He kept it from him and raised him to be a stubborn little boy who strictly abides by the rules and is strict with himself.
And then there's the matter of the concubine. Although I don't agree with Bai Xun marrying that guy surnamed Nan, but sneaking in while no one is home and bringing a concubine in... that's pretty unkind of him.
"Let me summarize: your grandfather was always tripping himself up. He dug a hole for himself." Wang Zijin said as he stood up and took out a bottle of red wine from the wine cabinet nearby.
Bo Song took the wine he handed to him and shook it casually in his hand.
"Let's not talk about Nanchun first. What if Bai Xun gets interested and really becomes interested in Yangcheng's business? With his intelligence, he will soon see through the trick. Then, I'm really afraid that he will kill his own relatives for the sake of justice." Wang Zijin shrugged.
He must have seen it...
Bai Song remembered what Bai Xun asked him at the old house.
Brother, the Bai family has sent people to look for tombs time and time again. Are they really looking for the tombs of the Bai family’s ancestors?
At that time, Bo Song really wanted to tell him everything, but he still hid it from him.
"Now that things have come to this, can you help me think of a more appropriate way to persuade him?"
Seeing that he was avoiding the main point, Wang Zijin didn't respond and didn't ask any more questions. He took a sip of wine and said with a smile, "Doesn't Bai Xun like Nan Chun?"
Bo Song raised his eyebrows and asked, "How did you know?"
"I'm not blind! It was you who told me the principle of loving someone and loving his dog too! Since he likes Nanchun, and you make Nanchun happy, why would he be angry? Besides, the matter of taking a concubine and the matter of Nanchun's grandfather, aren't they all related to Nanchun?" Wang Zijin said.
Hearing this, Bo Song's gloom cleared up, he raised his glass and clinked it with his, then called out to the door, "Shuisheng."
"Young Master." A capable man with a middle-parted hairstyle, wearing a black suit and glasses walked in.
"When will the Jin family's caravan arrive in Yangcheng? When will the second young master arrive?"
"The Jin family caravan will arrive the day after tomorrow. The second young master sent a telegram saying that it will arrive tomorrow night."
"The day after tomorrow morning, send someone to guard outside the city. If you see the Jin family caravan, report back immediately. Then go to Yuqingzhai and reserve a table. Request the best."
"Yes."
"What? Are you going to pick him up in person?" asked Wang Zijin.
"Ah."
"I didn't expect that this naughty student whom I had the least hope for is now more prestigious than me." Wang Zijin joked.
Hearing this, Bo Song looked at him with a frown.
"What's wrong?" Wang Zijin felt his whole body go numb when he was stared at by him.
"Didn't you cause Nanchun a lot of trouble when you were in the academy?"
"What do you mean by causing trouble for him? I was educating him and helping him to mend his ways," Wang Zijin defended.
"Shuisheng, book a train ticket to Jianghai for Mr. Wang." Bai Song said.
"Hey? When did I say I was going to Jianghai?" The wine glass in Wang Zijin's hand almost fell to the ground.
"Let's go to the river and the sea to appreciate the lotus flowers and relax." Bai Song said seriously.
"Winter is almost here, shall I go and admire the ghostly lotus flowers?"
"You can look at any flowers you want, or even ghosts if there are no flowers! Anyway, when Nanchun is around, you should disappear. Don't make him unhappy. If he's unhappy, then neither will I be happy looking for my brother. If I'm unhappy looking for my brother, then neither will my grandparents be happy, and in the end, I won't be happy alone either."
Wang Zijin was speechless for a moment, and didn't know how to complain even though he wanted to.
After holding it in for a long time, he gritted his teeth and said angrily, "It's better to use people forward than backward! You Bai family members are all mentally unstable."
"That's good to know. Go and see the ghost. Shuisheng, get the nearest train ticket. Please personally escort Mr. Wang to the train."
"Mr. Wang, please come in!" Xu Shuisheng looked at Wang Zijin with a smile and said very politely.
"My subordinates are not normal either!" Wang Zijin rolled his eyes at him and slammed the door.
Bo Song stood in front of the window and sighed heavily.
The most troublesome thing was not taking a concubine nor the disappearance of Old Man Nan, but the new task assigned to him by his grandfather.
My grandfather wrote to me saying that Nanchun seemed to have noticed something, and he seemed to know about the underground fairy palace in Xinchuanling.
This time he suddenly left without saying goodbye and secretly took away the demon book. I'm afraid it's not as simple as going to Yangcheng to find Bai Xun. He may have other purposes.
Grandfather meant to let him try Nanchun to see if he was useful.
If he is useful, he can stay. If he is not useful and becomes an enemy of the Bai family, he will be sent away.
Bai Song was quite surprised when he heard this at first. Nan Chun was the kind of person whose thoughts were written on her face and could be seen through at a glance.
As Nan Chenglin's grandson, it wasn't surprising that he knew about the Underground Palace. Although Old Man Nan had always said that Nan Chun was naughty and had no interest in finding the tomb, he only had this one grandson and didn't want Nan Chun to get involved in this business.
But Nanchun grew up in that kind of environment. Even if she deliberately hid it from him, if he wanted to know, he would at least know some of the inside story.
But he concealed the matter of the demon book from his grandfather and secretly left He'an County with the demon book. This action is indeed suspicious.
Could it be that someone told him about Mr. Nan’s disappearance?
Or did he realize that the business was not that simple when he went to the Bai family porcelain shop?
Bai Song frowned, picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp, then said with a wry smile, "Nanchun, you'd better stand on the side of the Bai family. Otherwise...if I really send you on your way, I'm afraid Xundi will hate me for the rest of his life."
