Shi Ye said: "No need to think about it, I am very sure, I only know Xia Ni'an, Lan Lan should have mentioned her to you, as for the other members of the Roland family, I am very sure that I have no contact with them."

"That's strange..." Sima was puzzled, "He specifically asked you to go alone, and he seems to be very interested in you."

Shi Ye asked: "Does he have any other demands?"

"No, I'll let you contact him."

"Okay, don't worry, I will bring Lan back."

Si Mo asked: "So what are your plans?"

Shi Ye said: "Let's contact him first, and then make specific arrangements. In short, I will bring Lan Lan back at all costs."

Si Mo reminded: "I advise you not to act rashly. William is not a simple person. Rescuing Lan is not something you can do alone. Qingli and I are here. We should discuss and cooperate with each other."

Si Mo went against Gu Jinlan's wishes and told Shi Ye about this, just hoping to bring Gu Jinlan back faster and more smoothly, rather than to harm Shi Ye and let him die.

Shi Ye asked: "What do you think?"

Si Mo said, "I have found out William's location. He is in an ancient castle. The area around him should be under the influence of the Roland family. Although we can force our way in, I don't recommend doing so for Lan's safety."

"I understand what you mean." Shi Ye said, "I'll go see Xia Ni'an first. If she is willing to go to the castle with me, things will go much more smoothly."

"If Xia Nian is willing to help, that would be the best. That's it for now. If there is any situation, please contact me and we can communicate at any time." After saying that, Si Mo was about to hang up the phone.

Shi Ye said quickly: "Wait a moment, I need your help with something."

Si Mo smiled and said, "Master Shi, we don't need to be so polite now. If you have anything to say, just tell me."

Shi Ye asked: "You are using Lan Lan's phone to contact my son, right?"

"Yes."

"Then can you spare some time to use Lan Lan's video data to make a video call with my son? For a top hacker like you, this shouldn't be a difficult task, right?"

"No problem." Si Mo agreed without hesitation, "Anytime is fine, just give me a few minutes to prepare."

Shi Ye thought of what Butler Xue had just said, that Shi Xingran had been hiding in bed and secretly wiping away tears recently, so he said, "Then let's do it now. Call me via video when you're ready."

"OK." Si Mo hung up the phone.

Shi Ye got up and left the study to find Shi Xingran.

Now that he was sure that Gu Jinlan was still alive and knew where she was, he felt relieved and was able to take the time to care about his son's emotions.

Later, Shi Ye found Shi Xingran in the children's study.

The little guy was sitting in front of the easel, drawing a model of their family of three.

The painting was almost finished, but Shi Xingran was still meticulously carving out Gu Jinlan in the painting.

Shi Ye walked to the side and tilted his head to observe for a while, "Ranran, did you draw Daddy's nose crooked?"

"It's not important..." Shi Xingran shook his head and was only focused on painting Gu Jinlan's part well.

Shi Ye shook his head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

Now he has completely seen the reality: the most important person in his son's heart is Gu Jinlan, not him.

At this time, Si Mo's voice video call came.

Shi Ye didn't rush to answer the call. He looked at his son's profile as he was drawing seriously and asked, "Ranran, do you want to video chat with your mother?"

Upon hearing this, Shi Xingran suddenly turned around and looked at Shi Ye.

Shi Ye raised his phone and showed Shi Xingran his screen.

Shi Xingran's eyes sparkled, and a happy smile appeared on the corners of his lips. "Mom finally has time to video chat!"

"I can give the phone to Ranran, but Ranran has to promise me that he will redraw my nose later." Shi Ye pointed at himself in the painting.

It can be seen from the painting that the son is obviously biased.

His appearance was drawn very sloppily and casually, but every stroke of Gu Jinlan's was very delicate, and it was obvious that he took it seriously.

"Okay!" Shi Xingran immediately nodded in agreement.

Only then did Shi Ye give him the phone.

After he took the phone, he quickly swiped the video to answer the call with his little fingers.

Seeing Gu Jinlan on the phone screen, Shi Xingran was extremely happy and called out sweetly, "Mom!"

Shi Ye was observing Gu Jinlan in the video from the side.

Si Mo is indeed worthy of being a top hacker. Gu Jinlan in the video call is so real and flawless.

Be it facial expressions, movements, or voice and tone, they are exactly the same as the real Gu Jinlan.

Shi Xingran was holding his cell phone and smiling happily.

After letting them chat for about twenty minutes, Shi Ye reminded them, "Ranran, it's late at night at mom's place."

Shi Xingran was reluctant to hang up the video call, and eagerly spread out five fingers and asked, "Let me chat with my mother for another five minutes, okay?"

Shi Ye glanced at his watch and said, "Okay, then it's agreed to be five minutes."

Shi Xingran nodded and immediately turned his gaze back to the phone screen, "Mom, when will you be back?"

Gu Jinlan said: "Soon."

Shi Xingran pursed her lips in dissatisfaction, "You always say it's almost time, can't you have a specific time?"

Gu Jinlan smiled gently, "It will be really quick this time. Mom misses Ranran too and will be back as soon as possible."

Shi Ye stared at the time on his watch, and when five minutes were up, he took his phone back from Shi Xingran.

"Okay, Ranran, you continue painting while Dad and Mom chat for a while."

Shi Ye walked out with his cell phone.

Shi Xingran looked at Shi Ye's back as he walked out, and vowed to himself, "Grow up quickly!"

When he grows up, he will have his own mobile phone and can video chat with his mother as long as he wants.

When he grew up, he no longer had to go to school. He would follow his mother wherever she went.

I don't want to be separated from my mother for such a long time again.

Shi Ye walked out of the children's study and looked at Gu Jinlan's gentle smile on the phone, his heart beating fast.

In fact, not many days had passed, but he felt as if he hadn't seen Gu Jinlan for a long, long time.

He missed Gu Jinlan no less than his son.

Just as Shi Ye was looking deeply at the phone screen, the picture in the video suddenly flashed——

Gu Jinlan's figure disappeared, replaced by Si Mo sitting in a wheelchair.

The sudden change of the scene made Shi Ye feel as if time and space were being torn apart.

Looking at Si Mo's pale and bloodless face, his handsome brows sank instantly.

Si Mo saw that he was unhappy and sneered, "Master Shi's expression of disdain is really... He goes forward when he needs help and goes backward when he doesn't."

Shi Ye laughed. He just couldn't get used to it. The person in the video that he had been thinking about day and night suddenly turned into Si Mo.

"Thanks, my son is very happy."

We had a video call today. Ranran won’t hide in bed and secretly cry tonight, right?

"You're welcome. I'm not doing this just for you." Si Mo said, "Also, regarding William's matter, I just thought about it and have a suggestion."
