A careful re-analysis is made on $e^+e^-\to X(4660)\to (\Lambda_c\bar{\Lambda}_c)/(\psi'\pi\pi)$ processes, aiming at resolving the apparent conflicts between Belle and BESIII data above $\Lambda_c\bar{\Lambda}_c$ threshold. We use a model containing a Breit-Wigner resonance and $\Lambda_c\bar{\Lambda}_c$ four-point contact interactions, with which the enhancement right above $\Lambda_c\bar{\Lambda}_c$ threshold is well explained by a virtual pole generated by $\Lambda_c\bar{\Lambda}_c$ attractive final state interaction, located at $M_V=4.566\pm0.007$ GeV. Meanwhile, $X(4660)$ remains to be a typical Breit-Wigner resonance, and is hence of confinement nature. Our analysis strongly suggests the existence of the virtual pole with statistical significance of $4.2$ standard deviation ($\sigma$). Nevertheless, the conclusion crucially depends on the line-shape of cross sections which are of limited statistics, hence we urge new experimental analyses from Belle II, BESIII, and LHCb to settle down the issue.
