Hong Kong International Airport.
Because of the bad weather, the flight from Manchu to Hong Kong would be delayed. It had just been broadcasted twice.
"Dad."
Outside the passenger passage, among the crowd, a 14-year-old boy said to the man next to him, "You go back to the car and rest. I'll wait here with Uncle Zhang."
Lai Shu rubbed his head and said with a smile, "It's okay. We'll wait."
The boy scratched his head.
He was very puzzled. He didn't understand why his father would rather stand here and wait for the wind than go back to the comfortable car.
He could have waited for the flight to land.
Lai Shu noticed his son's expression and said solemnly, "Yaoyang, the person I'm waiting for is not an ordinary person. Although he is only a little older than you, you have to respect him as much as you respect me. Do you understand?"
The boy had always been sensible. He knew that Lai Shu said this for his own good, so he nodded seriously and said, "Yes!"
Lai Shu patted his head with relief and said, "Good boy."
They didn't wait for a long time. About an hour later, they saw Yue Heng coming out of the passenger passage with a suitcase.
Lai Shu took the boy's hand and waved at Yue Heng excitedly. "Yue Shao!"
"Lai Shu."
Yue Heng, who had just returned to Hong Kong from Manchu, was a little surprised. "Why are you here?"
He didn't expect that Lai Shu would come to the airport to pick him up in person, and he seemed to have a child with him.
Lai Shu said with a smile, "I didn't come to pick you up last time because I had something to do. I've always felt embarrassed. This time, I can't miss it!"
Yue Heng couldn't help laughing. "Lai Shu, you're too polite."
Lai Shu said respectfully, "It's my pleasure."
The old man's attitude towards Yue Heng had changed subtly. Of course, it was not without reason.
Only he knew what Yue Heng had done in Siam.
Although there was no solid evidence.
However, Lai Shu was convinced that Yue Heng was the ruthless man who had turned the Xie family upside down!
Right now, the Xie Group's stocks were still suspended, and their losses were immeasurable.
It was said that a large number of core members of the Xie family had died.
And Yue Heng, who had done such an earth-shattering thing, was alone.
In the face of such a ruthless person, Lai Shu did not feel that it was shameful to lower himself.
On the contrary, he felt that he was lucky to be able to help Yue Heng!
"Yue Shao."
The chauffeur next to Yue Heng tactfully helped him carry the suitcase.
Yue Heng did not refuse.
His gaze fell on the young man that Lai Shu was holding. "This is?"
Lai Shu quickly introduced, "Yue Shao, this is my son, Li Yaoyang."
"Yaoyang, say hello to Yue Heng."
The young man obediently said, "Hello, Yue Shao."
He respectfully bowed to Yue Heng.
Yue Heng smiled and said, "Hello."
Lai Shu's son was very young, but he was tall and handsome. His speech and behavior were very well-mannered.
At first glance, one could tell that he was an elite that had been nurtured with a lot of resources.
Yue Heng had met many of Lai Shu's children, but Li Yaoyang had left the best impression on him.
In the evening, Lai Shu still held a welcoming dinner for Yue Heng at Hong Kong Hotel.
Li Yaoyang was the only one accompanying her.
During the dinner, Lai Shu took out his master's relic again, the Xuande Censor.
Last time, Lai Shu and Yue Heng had agreed that the latter would bring this antique back to China and help to find Lai Shu's master's descendant.
But now, Lai Shu had changed his mind.
Yue Heng was surprised. "Lai Shu, do you mean that if you can't find your master's descendant, you will give the Xuande Censor to me?"
Lai Shu's Xuande Censor was an antique. Even if it was not the real thing, even if it was a replica made by Wu Bangzuo, it was still worth millions.
If it was the real thing, it would be worth at least nine figures!
But whether it was the real thing or a replica, it was worth millions or hundreds of millions. For Yue Heng, the most precious thing was the Xuande Censor's unique properties.
It was priceless!
Lai Shu actually said that he would give it to him.
Although there was a premise, he had not found it after so many years. The probability of Yue Heng finding it was very low.
"Yes."
Lai Shu had made up his mind. "Yue Shao, I have a small request. Please take care of my son when you are free."
Yue Heng was confused. "But I am usually in China."
Lai Shu explained, "I have bought a house in Taijiang. I plan to send Yaoyang to study there next year."
He did not hide anything from Yue Heng.
It turned out that Li Yaoyang was his illegitimate son. He had always kept it a secret.
But at the beginning of this year, Li Yaoyang's mother died of illness. Lai Shu had to replan his future.
"I have so many children..."
Lai Shu smiled bitterly. "Yaoyang is the smartest and the most filial. He is also the most hardworking. So I don't want to bring him home and affect his future."
It sounded ridiculous to say that he did not want to bring him home because he was afraid of affecting his future.
But as far as Lai Shu's family was concerned, it was not a problem.
Yue Heng was enlightened.
He could see that Lai Shu really loved his son.
He did not hesitate to give up an expensive antique in exchange for his care.
Yue Heng thought for a while and said, "How about this? I can give him a chance."
Lai Shu was stunned. "What chance?"
"A chance to become a superhuman."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yue Heng reached out his hand and grabbed a bottle of red wine from the table.
Uncle Li sucked in a breath of cold air.
Li Yaoyang exclaimed. His eyes were filled with excitement.
Superpower!
He did not expect to see something that only appeared in comics and movies in front of him.
The young man suddenly understood why his father was so polite to Yue Heng. It was almost to the point of flattery.
Lai Shu's heart was in turmoil.
He knew a little about superhumans and had speculated about Yue Heng's identity.
Lai Shu was not too surprised by Yue Heng's self-revelation.
But the chance that Yue Heng mentioned made him realize that this might be his son's greatest opportunity.
The old man slapped Li Yaoyang's head without hesitation. "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and thank Yue Shao!"
Li Yaoyang came back to his senses. "Thank you, Yue Shao!"
Yue Heng smiled. "You're welcome. Let me make it clear first. Giving you a chance doesn't mean that you will definitely become a superhuman. Whether you succeed or not depends on your luck."
Awakening through contact with a Star Family member was a probability event.
The probability was quite low.
But Yue Heng had a feeling that Lai Shu's son had the potential to awaken a superhuman.
Yue Heng did not have this feeling before.
But now he did.
And the reason for this feeling was most likely related to his "absorption" of a Star Family member.
