She had never dared to hope for this before, and even now she feels like she's dreaming.
She was once all alone, but now she has her own little family, a husband she has loved and who has stayed by her side for over twenty years, and a beautiful, sensible, and capable daughter...
Although Li Yuan was talking to his daughter, he kept some attention on Luo Ling. Seeing her lost in thought, Li Yuan turned his head and took her hand: "Do you want to talk to her?"
“I…” Luo Ling opened her mouth.
Li Yuan simply moved the computer to a different angle, pointing the camera at the two of them.
As expected, Gu Yibei saw Luo Ling's figure and raised an eyebrow. He called out very quickly.
"mom."
Hearing "Mom" softened Luo Ling's heart. She felt gratified to have a son-in-law like Gu Yibei.
"Why!"
It's a feeling of happiness.
Hearing her son-in-law call her "Mom," Luo Ling longed for her daughter's voice the most. She looked at Ji Zhinan with anticipation, but Ji Zhinan remained silent with his lips pursed.
The light in his eyes slowly dimmed.
Li Yuan frowned, speaking to his daughter in this tone for the first time: "Why don't you call me Mom?"
"Ling Yin." Luo Ling gently nudged him. "The child has grown up, don't be so harsh..."
"Mother."
A soft "Mom" made Luo Ling, who was sitting there, freeze instantly.
She stared blankly at the camera, only to see Ji Zhinan looking somewhat awkward and shy, his lips pursed.
Thinking that Luo Ling hadn't heard him, Ji Zhinan spoke again: "Mom."
Perhaps because it had already uttered the first call, the second one was clearly more natural, and the sound was much better than before.
"Why!"
Coming to her senses, Luo Ling quickly responded, her usual composure breaking down this time.
"Nan Nan, how have you been lately? Is work tiring...?"
These were all questions that Li Yuan had asked earlier. Luo Ling didn't know how to interact with her daughter for a moment, so she just said whatever came to mind.
But Ji Zhinan answered very patiently.
Later, Luo Ling looked at her daughter on the other end of the camera and said, "Nan Nan, we... still have some things to take care of in the US, so we may not be able to go to China for the time being."
"Okay." Ji Zhinan was very well-behaved and didn't make a fuss. "You all must be careful."
Although she didn't know what was happening in the US, she knew that Yi Bei had been making phone calls for her father recently.
Regardless, she only hopes that everyone she cares about can be healthy, safe, happy, and joyful.
“Okay,” Luo Ling readily agreed.
Hearing her daughter's concern warmed her heart.
The family exchanged a few more words before reluctantly ending the video call.
Seeing the computer screen return to its homepage, Luo Ling lowered her eyes, feeling somewhat disappointed.
Li Yuan embraced her and gently comforted her, "It's alright, we'll be back soon."
"Um."
After seeing her daughter, Luo Ling felt much more at ease.
Time was of the essence, so they immediately went to Luo Yan to deploy the plan.
"According to my people's investigation, Luo Yan's men were discovered in a small town in a city in the United States. However, it was just a small team, less than ten people at most. After reconnaissance, they were just some useless subordinates. Even if we captured them, we wouldn't be able to get anything out of them. Instead, it would arouse Luo Yan's suspicion."
Looking at the information she had gathered, Luo Ling spoke calmly to the two men opposite her.
