The contract stipulated that in exchange for the painting, one hundred million yuan would be paid to Wang Lan. However, if Wang Lan failed to produce the painting within two days, she would be liable for a penalty five times that amount, which amounted to five hundred million yuan.

Song Ling read the contract several times, growing angrier with each reading. He had concluded that the contract was devoid of any flaws; it was so legitimate that it couldn’t be more so!

He instructed Zhao Xuan to bring him his computer, then asked Wang Lan over the phone, “Where did you sign the contract with the person you traded with?”

Wang Lan was so nervous that she hardly dared to breathe. Faced with Song Ling’s inquiry, she quickly answered, “At Shanlin Coffee!”

Song Ling’s ability to establish himself within the Song family was due largely his hacking skills, which he had used to take care of troublesome people within the company. Although he hadn’t used his skills in a long time, he still possessed them.

In no time at all, he found the surveillance footage from Shanlin Coffee.

In the video, Wang Lan sat across from a man in a suit. They spoke for only a few minutes before Wang Lan, visibly excited, took a pen from the man’s hand and signed the contract.

Song Ling’s eyes narrowed as he watched the scene, then he asked Wang Lan over the phone, “Do you know who this man is? What’s his name? Where does he live?”

Wang Lan said, “I don’t know… We met online, and he said he wanted this painting. Since you have it, we agreed to meet at this location.”

Song Ling snorted coldly, “This man clearly knew you had the painting and targeted you!”

Previously, Grandpa had said that Wang Lan was foolish, a notion that Song Ling hadn’t fully grasped. He even had his doubt about whether it was exaggerated or not. But at this moment, he realized it was not exaggerated at all. In fact, it was an understatement, because he thought Wang Lan was not just foolish but downright stupid!

After he tracked the surveillance footage, he tried to look into the man’s identity. Unexpectedly, he couldn’t find anything about the man, just like he had been stumped by the investigation of Gu Dai.

An idea flashed across Song Ling’s mind. Perhaps this man had a connection with Gu Dai. After all, although Wang Lan had offended many people, only Gu Dai had the courage to retaliate.

Song Ling’s pupils dimmed. He didn’t even want to deal with Wang Lan now, and said coldly, “I’ll cover the five hundred million for you this time, but it’s only a loan. I’ll have a lawyer send a contract to your home later, remember to sign it.” If she likes signing contracts so much, then she can sign ail of them!

Wang Lan was completely dumbfounded by Song Ling’s words.

Song Ling stated, “If this happens again, I won’t pay for you. You can let the police handle it. Also, you’d better stay at home and stop causing trouble outside!”

Wang Lan took a while to recover from the sentence, then exclaimed passionately, “Song Ling, I am your mother! Is there any filial piety left in you treating me this way?”

But Song Ling had already hung up the phone, so he didn’t hear Wang Lan’s protest.

After sending a message, he put away his phone and told Zhao Xuan, “Go to the family house later, and make sure my mom signs the contract. Also, arrange for a few people to watch her. If she does anything odd, inform me immediately.”

Song Ling felt that even with his warning, Wang Lan, with her attitude, would definitely not listen.

At that time, Gu Dai had arrived at the Shi family home. Looking at the familiar building, she felt a bit dazed, only to be greeted by a familiar voice calling, “Daidai!”

Gu Dai was startled, then turned around, embraced by someone.

Shi Nuan’s eyes filled with tears as she hugged Gu Dai tightly, exclaiming, “Daidai, I’ve missed you so much!”

Gu Dai’s heart trembled, and she raised a hand to stroke Shi Nuan’s head, forcing back her tears as she smiled, “Nuannuan, I’ve missed you too. Have you been well these years?”

Shi Nuan shook her head vigorously, “Without Daidai, these three years have been terrible!”

Gu Dai took a tissue from her pocket and carefully wiped away Shi Nuan’s tears, softly saying, “Nuannuan, don’t cry. I’m back now, aren’t 1? You should be happy.”

Shi Nuan nodded vigorously, but although her actions agreed, her tears continued to flow. She said plaintively, “1 searched for you for three days and nights on the ship and on the sea, but I couldn’t find a trace of you. Everyone said you were dead..”
