Saving the male protagonist in the dungeon only resulted in him becoming cannon fodder.

Li Yuan took Li Yan back home. Li Yan needed to rest now, so Li Yuan went to his study and got busy with his work. At least his life wouldn't be affected after he left.

Butler Li stopped hiding and swaggered back to the Bai family. Uncle Bai, as usual, didn't pay much attention to his presence.

Li Wei, still unwilling to give up, plopped down in front of Uncle Bai, demanding, "Where is my son?"

Uncle Bai looked at him, his eyes filled with impatience. "If I knew where your son was, would I have let you push him down the stairs?"

Li Wei understood that he had been in the Bai family for so many years and there had never been anything about his son. His sudden disappearance was truly baffling.

"Who could have kidnapped my son?" Li Wei frowned, lost in thought.

Seeing this, Uncle Bai began to talk to him, trying to help him analyze the situation, "Who do you think it could be?"

Li Wei looked bewildered. "Who would know!"

Uncle Bai gave him a simple analysis of the possible reasons: "First, he was kidnapped by your enemy; second, your son Li Lin was kidnapped by human traffickers while playing; third, have you seen the news about the Myanmar incident? They were kidnapped and then disappeared without a trace."

Upon hearing this, Li Wei immediately felt that it made some sense, and thus began to investigate...

Just as Li Wei was about to leave, Uncle Bai called him back: "Could I see the text message he sent you?" Without hesitation, Li Wei handed his phone to Uncle Bai. After reading it, Uncle Bai forwarded it to the company's hackers for investigation. Then, he returned the phone to Li Wei and advised, "This text message might contain misleading information. If he sends you similar messages again, you'd better investigate it yourself first." Seeing Uncle Bai's concern, Li Wei felt a surge of gratitude and sincerely said, "Thank you."

As Li Wei stepped out of the Bai family's gate, he realized his identity had been exposed and he needed to act quickly. He decided to go to the United States first to see his father. After a long flight, Li Wei finally arrived in the United States and met his father.

When Grandpa Li saw his son suddenly appear before him, he was overwhelmed with emotion, tears welling up in his eyes. He couldn't help but weep, "My child, I thought you were dead! Where have you been all these years?" Li Wei looked at his elderly father and noticed the many gray hairs on his head. Filled with guilt and self-reproach, he whispered, "Dad, I'm so sorry... I've made you worry." Grandpa Li hugged his son tightly, tears streaming down his face, and said tremblingly, "It's alright, as long as you're alive..."

Li Wei and his father embraced and wept, as if time had stood still. After a long while, the father and son gradually calmed down. Old Master Li, knowing the hardships his son had endured over the years, was filled with regret and self-reproach, murmuring, "It's all my fault, letting you suffer alone in City A." Li Wei gently patted his father's shoulder, comforting him, "Dad, it's not your fault. Let bygones be bygones, let's start anew."

Afterwards, Grandpa Li asked Li Wei about the whereabouts of his grandson, Li Lin, but Li Wei shook his head helplessly, indicating that there were currently no clues. Grandpa Li sighed and comforted him, "Child, don't worry, take your time. I believe that one day, you and your son will be reunited."

Li Wei didn't stay in China for long, leaving after only a few days. Just as Old Master Li personally saw Li Wei off back home, a mysterious figure silently observed their every move. This mysterious figure had initially thought that Li Wei receiving the text message would cause some harm to Bai Wenxun, but in the end, it only resulted in Bai Wenxun being hospitalized, and only for a few days. This made the mysterious figure sigh at Li Wei's soft heart.

The mysterious man then inquired about Luffy's father's situation. Li Ming reported that no unusual behavior had been detected, and everything was proceeding smoothly. The mysterious man nodded in satisfaction, indicating that this was good, and encouraged Li Ming to continue his efforts, assuring him that he would definitely have a place in the future.

Meanwhile, after some investigation, Bai Mengmeng finally found the source of the text message—it originated from the United States. Lu Ze began to wonder if the sender already knew Li Wei's true identity, which was why they sent such a message. In other words, if they really knew Li Wei's identity, their previous actions against the Bai family might have been a test of the relationship between the Bai family and Li Wei. And now, they were using others to deal with Uncle Bai—the reasons behind this were truly baffling.

Bai Mengmeng couldn't understand why anyone would be so determined to kill her father. More importantly, if this matter were related to the Li family, at least the reason could be clarified, but what exactly was the mysterious person's appearance and his intentions? These questions left Bai Mengmeng extremely confused.

Lu Ze suddenly remembered the text message from the mysterious number a while ago, so he asked Bai Mengmeng to help investigate it. He was very curious about the person who had been sending him suggestive text messages; this person always seemed to know what he was thinking and seemed quite trustworthy. Bai Mengmeng carefully studied the strange number and found that it was somewhat similar to Xiaobai's number. At first, she thought it was just a coincidence, but after several days of in-depth investigation, she couldn't find any information about the number at all.

Meanwhile, Luffy received an important order from the United States, demanding that he inflict heavy damage on the Bai family. Realizing the seriousness of the situation, Luffy immediately informed Li Yuan and Lu Ze. Lu Ze calmly analyzed, "It seems that Uncle Bai's incident last time didn't have a significant impact on the Bai family. They're getting impatient, which is why they've sent you to take action again." Luffy was perplexed; he didn't understand how to carry out this mission in a way that would both harm the Bai family to a certain extent and avoid causing too much trouble. The three of them fell silent, deep in thought.

Meanwhile, Li Ming had returned to China, and with him, he brought someone with him—Zhao Xu. The Zhao family had previously faced financial difficulties and had been forced to cooperate with the United States. Now, Li Ming went directly to the company to find Luffy and explained the situation, hoping he could help the Zhao family overcome their crisis.

Luffy was furious after hearing this. He angrily said, "Do you think doing business is child's play? You can't just do whatever you want!" Li Ming ignored Luffy's anger and calmly told him why he had returned. Then, he left the company with Zhao Xu and returned to the Zhao family.
