Chapter 86



"Sister Xue?"

Ye Jingran looked in disbelief at Ye Luoxue and Wei Lan who appeared at the end of the corridor.

He had left his cell phone in the studio, and he only remembered it after he left the company. When he ran back to get it, he found that the door of the studio was automatically locked and closed. At this time, the studio manager had already left work.

Modern people cannot live without their mobile phones, otherwise they can't move around. This phone is Ye Jingran's most important personal phone, so naturally he has to get it back.

Through the glass door, Ye Jingran saw that the lights in the director's office had just gone out, so he walked over there, hoping to ask Wei Lan to open the door and get his cell phone. The exit there was independent, so he walked around the corridor before finding the entrance to the director's office at the other end. Fortunately, there were no other staff members at this time, so he would not miss Wei Lan.

Then, he saw a scene that he had never expected.

Ye Luoxue came with his little niece, who was so delicate and cute that it attracted everyone's attention.

He even looked back again and again at the director's room that he could see far behind him. The lights inside were off and there was no sign of anyone there.

That can only mean that one of the two people appearing before him is the mysterious director in the director's machine.

Director 'Wei Lan' cannot be Ye Luoxue.

Ye Jingran has received professional actor training and is also very familiar with Ye Luoxue. Even if Ye Luoxue changed her voice, she is not a professional voice actor, and the way and tone of a person's daily speech will not change so drastically. If the director was Ye Luoxue, he would not have failed to recognize her after filming together for half a month.

Countless images emerged in Ye Jingran's mind.

When he first met Wei Lan in the Ye family mansion, she was quiet unlike other children. Also, Ye Luoxue always called her by her name. He thought that the "Lanlan" Ye Luoxue called was actually "Lan" or "Lan". Anyway, he never associated her with director Wei Lan.

At this moment, he was staring at Wei Lan in Ye Luoxue's arms.

In a flash, many doubts flashed through his mind. For example, Wei Lan only accepted telephone interviews and never appeared in any public occasion. No actors in the same crew had ever seen her. She always appeared in the image of a panda... She said that she had social phobia, but from Ye Jingran's daily communication in the holographic world, Wei Lan did not seem to have this obstacle.

On the contrary, after a month of getting along, Ye Jingran felt that Wei Lan was a very confident person with a strong personality.

Many clues were connected together, including the inexplicable sense of familiarity he felt when he first met Wei Lan, and the fact that he once asked Ye Luoxue about the relationship between Wei Lan and them, to which she said "our relatives".

Their daughter is also their relative.

It sounds incredible, but all the doubts and clues point to one thing, that is - Director Wei Lan is his little niece 'Lanlan' who looks only four years old!

As soon as Wei Lan saw Ye Jingran, she knew she was in trouble. She pretended to be a good baby and lay in Ye Luoxue's arms. At the same time, she opened the system mall in her mind almost instantly, and then bought the item "Lucky Halo" at the speed of light, which she thought she would definitely not buy again a few days ago.

'Do something!'

Wei Lan's consciousness was focused on the gray props in the mall. According to the system, as long as the halo took effect, new props would be refreshed in the mall. While paying attention, she was thinking about how this lucky halo would take effect.

Another suspect popped up to reassure Ye Jingran? Ye Jingran was overworked and fainted, thinking it was a dream? Suddenly a comet hit the Wei family...?

My mind was full of strange possibilities, but none of them came true.

Because the lucky halo has not disappeared at all...

I don’t know if it was because the halo was used too late, or because Ye Jingran saw this incident, but it was not a danger or obstacle as determined by the halo.

Therefore, Wei Lan could only see Ye Jingran's expression opposite him, from shock, confusion, subtlety, and then to understanding.

Wei Lan: Broken props! Rubbish system!

system:……

Ye Luoxue saw Ye Jingran's expression and realized that he had seen through it. She anxiously stretched out her hand and said the classic line from a TV drama about a secret being exposed: "Xiao Jing, listen to my explanation!"

"Okay, okay...you say." Ye Jingran stared with a flustered look.

"Uh..." Ye Luoxue couldn't help but stop talking: "It's a long story..."

Compared to the two panicked adults, only Wei Lan realized that the situation was hopeless and there was no point in pretending anymore. His demeanor changed from pretending to be a child to his usual expressionless face.

The calmest person among the three was actually the little kid, which made the scene very awkward for a moment.

In the Wei family villa, besides Wei Mingjie and his wife, Wei Sijia, and Wei Lan, there were also the two policemen who had come to the house regarding Wei Lan's matter.

After finding out that the matter could not be concealed, Wei Mingjie contacted the police at the time. Even though he had signed a confidentiality agreement and would not actively disclose Wei Lan's situation, he still had corresponding measures in case of being discovered by others. In addition, Ye Jingran could be considered a relative of Wei Lan, so this matter was better than being discovered by others.

At present, what Wei Lan and his team have seen is that the police asked Ye Jingran to sign a confidentiality agreement as well. As for what kind of investigation they conducted on Ye Jingran behind the scenes, it is beyond their knowledge.

"This is what happened... We are investigating the case of the genetic poison. We hope you won't reveal any information about Miss Wei to anyone, whether intentionally or unintentionally..."

The two policemen were also helpless about Wei Lan's situation. Of course, the best way to keep it secret was for Wei Lan to pretend to be an ordinary child. As a result, Wei Lan became a holographic film director, a public figure with a high risk of exposure, but in essence she was an adult, and they had no right to interfere with the personal freedom of others.

Moreover, Wei Lan also abided by the confidentiality agreement when filming, and never appeared in front of the public. As a popular director, she has never shown up once, which shows that the confidentiality work has been done very well.

Besides, the police also have leisure and entertainment. They also watch movies, and they have seen Wei Lan’s movies.

Naturally, it is impossible to say something like asking such a talented director to stay at home and stop filming when Wei Lan did not interfere with the case.

"I understand." After Ye Jingran learned the whole story from the police, he signed a confidentiality agreement.

"So, Lanlan is like this because of the genetic poison?" Ye Jingran looked at Wei Lan and couldn't help but ask again.

Even though he knew that Wei Lan at this moment and the red panda in the holographic world were the same person, he still had a strong sense of dislocation when he saw such a tiny niece in reality.

I originally thought she was a little adult, but now I realize that she really is a 'little' adult!

Moreover, he was his "immediate boss" at work, which made Ye Jingran feel a strong sense of gap. He couldn't help but stare at Wei Lan frequently... until he was glared at by Wei Lan and then he restrained himself.

"That's right." Ye Luoxue touched Wei Lan with pity. If she hadn't been affected by this, her daughter should be a 19-year-old girl. Although she looks very cute now, she will do her best to take care of her, but the Wei couple has always had a knot in their hearts about Wei Lan's situation.

It would be fine if Wei Lan could grow up like a normal child, but they consulted a doctor secretly and found out that Wei Lan's physical growth and development is ten times slower than that of ordinary children of the same age, or even more.

In other words, she basically didn't grow up in this year.

This is not the case before Wei Lan was not found by them. If it was the previous Wei family, it would be normal without medical conditions. However, after Wei Lan was found, he consulted the most authoritative doctors in the federation for treatment, including the poison experts from the police, but they were unable to figure out Wei Lan's current condition.

Other children who were infected with this kind of genetic poison rarely lived past the age of fifteen, let alone eighteen. Currently, there is only Wei Lan's case. After diagnosis, her genes are currently stable, but her growth has basically stopped. This strange phenomenon was unexpected by everyone.

In addition to filming, Wei Lan now takes time out every week to check various physical indicators.

Wei Mingjie and Ye Luoxue just said it was a routine check-up and did not tell the two children about their concerns.

If Wei Lan knew the results of her physical examination, she would probably curse the system less... After all, it saved her life.

Wei Sijia on the side said that she understood Ye Jingran's mentality at the moment. As one of the people who knew the situation, she was not used to it when she first joined Wei Lan's crew to film. It took her a few days to adapt. It would probably take her uncle a while to get used to this fact.

"It's okay." Wei Sijia said on the side: "From now on, you can discuss your own affairs."

She said to Wei Lan: "Lanlan, from now on you should call me uncle."

Then he turned to Ye Jingran and said, "Uncle, you still call Lanlan Director Wei."

Wei Mingjie and Ye Luoxue: "Not bad."

Wei Lan: “?”

Ye Jingran: “?”

Even though the matter was over, Wei Lan had escaped unscathed this time. Even because Ye Jingran was in her studio, it could be said that she had one more person to take her to and from get off work.

When Ye Jingran and the two policemen left the Wei family villa, the male policeman looked around, suddenly looked deeply at Ye Jingran, and asked in a low voice: "Actually, I also want to know something from you, Mr. Ye..."

"You used to be a signed artist of Chengguang. How much do you know about some things of Chengguang's senior management?"

Ye Jingran paused and looked at the police in surprise.

"You mean...Lanlan's matter is related to Chengguang?"

In a flash, Ye Jingran thought of many flashes of memories, and finally stopped at a few days before he was sued by Qiao Lianqing, and he accidentally saw a document in her bag...

The policeman looked serious and asked, "It seems you know something?"

Ye Jingran frowned: "I'm not sure..."

He only saw a document header, which seemed to have the name of a biotechnology company written on it.

"It's okay." The female police officer said, "It's not convenient to talk here. Please go to the police station with us."

"no problem."

Since it concerns his cousin and niece, Ye Jingran is naturally willing to cooperate with the investigation.

At the same time, he vaguely remembered that he had asked Qiao Lianqing a curious question at that time, and she said that it was her friend's thing. He thought she was dissatisfied with him looking at her bag, but now thinking back calmly, she felt that her reaction was abnormally intense.
