Chapter 2430

Then, Yi Qianmo showed photos of the mansion to Ling Yiran. Ling Yiran looked at the mansion in the photo. 'Is Xia Xi locked in there? What’s happening to Xia Xi?' Ling Yiran could not help feeling emotional as she thought of the torture the once high-spirited heiress had suffered throughout the years. Perhaps Xia Xi's experience reminded her of her former self, so she felt more sympathy and empathy for the woman. The car arrived at the location Gu Lichen had sent Ling Yiran, which was a cafe. Gu Lichen had already reserved a private room. When the three members of the Yi family entered the private room, Gu Lichen's eyes sparkled slightly. He did not seem surprised that Yi Jinli had come too. "It's been a while, Jinli." Gu Lichen greeted first. "I had hoped we wouldn’t have to see each other,” Yi Jinli said pointedly. Gu Lichen smiled faintly. "I'm sorry for letting you down." The two men looked at each other. Then, a childlike voice rang out. "Are you Uncle Gu Lichen, the one who has always liked Mommy?" Gu Lichen's eyes fell on Yi Qianmo's face that was similar to Yi Jinli's. Looking at Yi Qianmo now reminded him of the time he saw Yi Jinli when he was a child. At the time, Jinli was a little older than Yi Qianmo now. He was aloof and cold at parties, but his face would break into a nearly perfect smile when the adults approached him. At that time, Gu Lichen had already thought that Jinli was wearing a mask. He even wondered who would be the one to tear off his mask. He now knew that it was Yiran. Jinli would only present his genuine self to Yiran. "Yes," Gu Lichen replied to the little one. "Poor you. My mommy likes my daddy and not you," said Yi Qianmo. "..." Alright, Gu Lichen found that Yi Jinli's son was indeed as unlovable as Yi Jinli. Ling Yiran looked awkward and immediately changed the topic. "Is Xia Xi still in the mansion?" "Yeah, she's still there. My source there says Xia Xi is being held in the mansion's basement. There are security guards at the mansion. I'm afraid it won’t be easy to find a way to get her out in secret," Gu Lichen said as he instructed a computer expert nearby. The person turned on the computer and showed Yi Jinli and Ling Yiran the layout of the mansion, as well as the basement where Xia Xi was being held. The computer expert also analyzed the Xia family's security measures. They had adopted an advanced security system. "What if we call the police?" Ling Yiran asked. "We don't have any photos of the Xia family abusing Xia Xi, and her guardian is the Xia family. Her family has the right to lock up a mental patient. The Xia family will have many reasons to explain their actions," said Gu Lichen. Ling Yiran was silent.
