Although the power supply and communication had been restored, Louis was still at home because it was the weekend after Friday.
Barbara had already prepared breakfast and was greeting Dr. Franky and Louis to eat.
She poured a glass of milk for both of them and asked, "Doctor, are you feeling better?"
Dr. Franky rubbed his waist, then smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's just a bump."
Barbara patted her chest and said, "That's good to hear. I saw on the news that there was a gunfight at the memorial ceremony last night and several people were unlucky enough to be shot. Although it was not life-threatening, it was still an unexpected disaster! Doctor, you're really lucky. "
She still remembered how Dr. Franky had walked back last night with his hands on his waist. It was really a false alarm.
"What could have happened?" Dr. Franky opened the newspaper and said, "It was just a bump by a fugitive. You're the one who was too nervous."
Barbara shook her head. Then, she remembered something. "By the way, Doctor, I received a call from Mr. Orfey half an hour ago. He told me that he's on his way home. He said that he has something to discuss with you. He hopes that you can wait for him."
Dr. Franky frowned and looked down at Louis who was eating silently with his head down. He said with dissatisfaction, "What? He didn't come back last night?"
"Mr. Orfey said that there was something important."
Dr. Franky snorted and did not say anything else.
Not long after, Mr. Orfey returned home. He asked Barbara to take Louis to the yard outside to play and then called Dr. Franky to the study.
Mr. Orfey did not say anything and just paced back and forth in the study impatiently. However, his eyes never left Dr. Franky – it was like a parent looking at a child who made a mistake and was so angry that he could not say anything.
"If you have something to say, just say it. I'm not your subordinate. You don't have to put on airs in front of me," Dr. Franky said coldly.
Mr. Orfey stopped and took a deep breath. He then stared at Dr. Franky and said in a deep voice, "Let me ask you, did you and Billy have some kind of agreement before?"
Dr. Franky was slightly startled. He then tilted his head and said indifferently, "I don't know what you're talking about."
"Leiden Corporation! Secret technical support! "Mr. Orfey lowered his voice.
Dr. Franky opened his mouth but remained silent. He and Orphie looked at each other. After a long time, the doctor sighed and said, "Since you already know, why are you still asking me?"
"Because I don't believe you! That's why I want to hear it from you personally! "Mr. Ao Fei said angrily," I don't believe that my father would do such a thing! I don't believe that my father would become so irrational … Have you gone senile? Don't you know who's behind Layton Corp.? You and Billy actually went to Leiden Corporation to trade this kind of technology privately? "
Dr. Franky shook his head and said, "I only know that if this deal is successful, we will have the ability to successfully launch our first satellite in one or two years. For this, any sacrifice is worth it. "
Mr. Offie tried to calm himself down. "Do you know who our men have caught in the past two days?"
"What does that have to do with me?" The professor shook his head. "I'm just a scientist. I don't care about politics."
"It's the FBI from the United States." Mr. Orphie stared at Dr. Franky and said slowly, "Yes, you can ignore politics. But do you know that Layton Corp., the company you want to trade with, has long been targeted by the government there? Once the agreement is reached and the evidence is confirmed, Layton Corp. will be accused of selling the country's technology! And we will be your accomplices! We will give that gangster-like country a very good excuse to blackmail us! "
"This …" Dr. Franky stood up abruptly. Not being involved in politics did not mean that he could not analyze the pros and cons. He just never thought about it. "This … this is impossible."
"Those agents are in my territory right now! Do you want me to send you to them? "Mr. Orphie roared at his old father." You're my father! You're setting me up! Are you trying to get me killed?! Are you trying to break this broken family into pieces again? Are you trying to destroy the life I've worked so hard to pick up again?! You stubborn old man! "
"Orphie, I …" Dr. Franky's lips trembled.
Mr. Orphie wiped his face with both hands and took a few deep breaths. "I'm sorry, I spoke too harshly. I'll put this matter aside for now. But during this time, no, from now on, don't have any contact with Billy. I don't want the current Mr. President to label me as an accomplice of Billy's people! "
Dr. Franky was silent.
Mr. Orphie turned around and said, "I've already sent a letter of resignation to the Research Institute on your behalf. The reason is that you're not feeling well and can't do your current job. But you won't have nothing to do. The National University will hire you as an honorary dean. If you're too free, you can go teach the young people. "
"You're interfering with my personal life! Orphie! You can't do this! "Dr. Franky rushed forward and grabbed his son's arm.
"I don't want to, I really don't want to …" Mr. Orphie said slowly. "I don't want Louis to see me send you to a nursing home."
"Orphie …" Dr. Franky let go of his hand weakly.
He pushed open the door to the study and walked out in a daze.
…
Barbara was playing football with Louis in the yard, but Louis didn't seem to be very happy. Barbara could only walk up to the child and squat down. "Louis, don't you like playing football? Didn't you say your idol is Manadona? "
Louis shook his head and looked up at the study. "Barbara, are father and grandfather quarreling?"
"How can that be? They just have something serious to talk about. "Barbara comforted him." Maybe they'll come down soon! Hmm … I might have to go prepare lunch. I'll make you something you like, okay? "
"Okay." Louis nodded and walked back into the house with Barbara's hand. He suddenly said, "Barbara, is my mother a very powerful person?"
Barbara was startled. "Why do you mention her?"
Louis said, "Yesterday, grandfather took me to the science and technology museum. I saw a huge satellite! It's so cool! And the creator has my mother's name on it! And grandfather's name! "
"Of course, because your mother is your grandfather's student. She's the disciple he's most proud of." Barbara smiled.
"Why didn't father and grandfather tell me about this?" Louis was puzzled.
"Louis." Barbara squatted down and held the child's face. She said softly, "Do you trust me?"
Louis nodded.
Barbara said seriously, "Then listen to me and trust me. Whether it's your father or your grandfather, they must have a very important reason for not telling you. Louis, aren't you a good boy? You should know not to make them sad, right? "
Louis nodded, though he did not fully understand.
…
…
Colombia, Cartagena, a beautiful ancient bay city.
It was already noon when the flight quietly landed in this city known as the most beautiful bay city in South America.
Oni, who was the first to exit the cabin, stretched his body and revealed a smile to the flight attendant in front of the door. Just as he was about to take a phone number, Lluvia walked over, grabbed his ear, and pulled him away.
Luoqiu followed behind and looked at Song Haoran. "Is your friend always like this?"
Because they were in the first class cabin, the four of them were the first to leave. The airport passageway was very empty and quiet at this time.
"It's probably the feeling of being enemies." Song Haoran described it.
He looked at Oni who was tugging and pulling Lluvia in front of him and said with a smile, "When I first met Oni, he was still working as a parking attendant in a hotel. Later, I found out that he would secretly drive the guests' cars out and pretend to be rich. "
"Did he secretly drive your car?" Luoqiu asked curiously.
"No." Song Haoran shrugged and said, "I don't drive luxury cars, so he didn't take a fancy to mine."
Luoqiu nodded. "What about Lluvia? How did she follow you? "
Song Haoran smacked his lips and seemed to be lost in his memories. He suddenly said, "Lluvia, actually means' rain '. I met her on a rainy day. At that time, she told me that she didn't have a name, so I gave her the name 'Lluvia' … that's it. "
"That's it?" Luoqiu was slightly stunned.
Song Haoran shrugged and smiled. "That's it."
Boss Luo smiled and skipped the topic. "What's the next itinerary?"
Song Haoran walked in front and said, "We don't need to go anywhere. This is our temporary destination. Dad has already arrived. I will take you to see him now. "
Song Haoran, who was standing in front of the passageway, suddenly turned around and smiled. "Oh, I forgot to tell you. You can do whatever you want here. Because this is … our Song family's territory. "
He looked at Luoqiu and said softly, "Us."
