...

Because the afternoon in Rome just happened to correspond with nighttime back home, Jian Ran was missing her little princess so much that she sent Qin Mu a message saying she wanted to video call. She quickly received a video invitation from Qin Mu.

Jian Ran excitedly accepted it, and before she could even speak, she heard the voice from the other end first.

"Mommy."

You hear her voice before you see her face.

The sound of her little princess calling "Mommy," like a silver bell, rang in Jian Ran’s ears. She couldn’t help but smile as she saw the sweet appearance of her little princess on the phone screen.

Her bright eyes were full of affection, and her smile was so sweet it was utterly adorable.

There were still some oil stains on her little mouth that hadn’t been wiped clean. Jian Ran looked behind Tang Baobao to see a dining table. It turned out the little girl was eating.

"Tang Baobao, did you miss Mommy?"

"Of course, I did."

"Hehe..."

Jian Ran was amused by her little princess, the corners of her lips curling up as she said softly, "How was it today at Great Grandpa’s house?"

"Um, it felt super awesome."

Jian Ran: "..."

The little princess was much more adept at using the latest internet slang than Jian Ran herself.

Jian Ran smiled, watching as Qin Mu held up the phone together with the little princess, and asked softly, "What kind of awesome was it?"

"This morning, Great Grandpa took me to see the rooms... He also brought a lot of small animals to play with me, like Persian cats, Teddy dogs, and little white rabbits. There’s everything, so I made a lot of good friends... Great Grandpa said, all these little animals like me very much."

The little princess’s life seemed really cozy, prompting Jian Ran to ask reflexively.

"And what about the afternoon?"

"In the afternoon, Great Grandpa took me to see a circus performance, and it was so amazing. I didn’t want to leave at all, it was awesome... so cool... it was ridiculously fun."

The little princess’s chubby appearance was very delicate. Before Jian Ran could ask further, the little princess couldn’t help but speak.

"Mommy, the most important thing is the evening, do you want to know what I’m doing now?"

"Hmm?"

"I’m having dinner with Boy, isn’t that just so cool?"

Jian Ran: "..."

Jian Ran watched as the little princess’s small hand holding the phone switched the camera, and indeed, she saw the three members of the Boy band.

Jian Ran’s beautiful eyes widened...

Why... behind the three members of the band... were there two characters each, standing like special forces soldiers with their firearms?

Could it be that they were brought here against their will by the Old Master?

The thought made Jian Ran’s mouth twitch severely.

The Old Master... shouldn’t be that kind of person.

Yeah, it must have been a very polite invitation.

It must be, it certainly must be...

"Hello, Tang Baobao’s Mommy."

The members of Boy forced a smile, greeting Jian Ran with a somewhat reluctant look.

Jian Ran couldn’t help but wave her little hand in response.

"Hello to you too."

The members of Boy exchanged glances, their hearts filled with unspeakable woes which they endured silently.

...

The camera shifted back to Tang Baobao, who asked excitedly, "Mommy... isn’t it super cool?"

Jian Ran was a bit puzzled, but she couldn’t help but say, "Um... Tang Baobao, give the phone to Uncle Qin, will you?"

"Alrighty."

After Tang Baobao handed the phone to Qin Mu, Jian Ran immediately heard Qin Mu’s voice complaining.

"Ran Girl, Grandpa really spoils Tang Girl beyond words... Boy had a performance in Beijing today, and the old man actually had people bring them to Yuncheng, just to keep Tang Girl company for dinner."
