"But it's the weekend today, Uncle Qin might not be working," Shuoshuo said with a worried expression. "Chen-gege, I think we should call the police first."
"No," Chenchen immediately rejected. "Calling the police isn't the best method. What if we startle the bad guys and they hurt Mommy in a moment of desperation? I still think we should find Uncle Qin for help first. He knows everything about this place and might be able to find Mommy faster and easier than the police."
Upon hearing this, Yanyan quickly chimed in, "I agree with Chen-gege's idea."
"Alright. Then let's go quickly. It's not far from Zhuo Sheng Group; it should only take about ten minutes to get there." Chenchen took Yanyan's small hand and they ran towards the main road.
Yanyan followed them and asked, "Aunt Xiao Lian went to the supermarket to buy us things. Should we tell her?"
"Then you call her," Chenchen glanced back at him.

In the top-floor CEO's office of Zhuo Sheng Group, Qin Si Ye had just returned from the conference room. He took out his phone, silenced it, and then received a call from Gu Lin.
"Si Ye, where are you?"
"At the company," Qin Si Ye walked to his desk and sat down, rubbing his left eye. Just now during the meeting, for some reason, his left eye had twitched twice.
Gu Lin asked doubtfully, "Isn't it the weekend today? Why are you still at the company?"
"The company is in the process of negotiating an international acquisition project these days, so everyone is working overtime today." Qin Si Ye's voice was somewhat languid. "Is there something?"
"Yes," Gu Lin replied seriously. "The matter you asked me to investigate in Country B has shown some progress."
"Oh? Tell me quickly." Upon hearing this, Qin Si Ye immediately sat up straighter, his interest piqued. That matter had been bothering him for a long time, and he was eager to know the answer immediately.
Gu Lin said, "My colleague said he asked people to inquire with several companies specializing in realistic masks and finally got some information. Six months ago, a woman with an Eastern appearance participated in the design and custom-ordered a realistic mask at one of those companies."
"Did he ask? Then... what is that woman's name?" Qin Si Ye excitedly stood up from his chair, asking urgently.
Gu Lin frowned and replied cautiously, "Those companies are very strict about customer privacy and are unwilling to disclose names. However, they provided one piece of information that might be useful to you."
"What?" Qin Si Ye asked.
"He said that woman was a doctor." Gu Lin paused for a moment and then said in a low voice, "Si Ye, based on this inquiry result and connecting it with Shen Xi, could it be that she really is..."
Qin Si Ye didn't hear the rest of what Gu Lin said. He was thinking: Judging from the time, appearance, and profession, it all matched Shen Xi very well. Could it be that woman had deceived him from the very beginning? But why would she do that? And who was her true identity?
Qin Si Ye's pupils contracted, his body trembled slightly, and veins bulged on the back of his hand holding the phone.
"Si Ye, can you hear me?" Gu Lin asked loudly from the other end of the phone when he saw Qin Si Ye didn't respond for a long time.
At this moment, Zhao Ze's call came in. Qin Si Ye said, "I have something going on here, I can't chat with you anymore. Remember, do not mention this matter to anyone." After saying that, he immediately hung up and answered Zhao Ze's call, "Hello? What is it?"
"President, the first-floor reception called just now saying three children are looking for you and want you to come down immediately. They also said you are their Daddy." Zhao Ze said in a low voice, already guessing who those three children were. They must be the three adorable children from Doctor Shen's family. The last time one came, and this time all three have arrived. And are they afraid of displeasing the President by introducing themselves like that?
"Oh? Then you can come down and see with me." Qin Si Ye's voice showed no anger, only surprise. What kind of situation is this? It seems those three children hold a very high position in the President's heart. Could it be that the President is planning to date Doctor Shen and truly become their Daddy?
When the two arrived at the lobby, the three adorable children immediately ran towards Qin Si Ye upon seeing him.
"Daddy, we finally found you."
Seeing this, the two receptionists at the front desk exchanged astonished glances. So they really were President Qin's children. Fortunately, they hadn't gotten angry and kicked them out earlier.
