"Oh, it's you … What are you doing here when it's time for a nap?" Lu Sheng was speechless. "Coming here every other day, do you have nothing better to do?"
The girl's name was Fiona, Fiona Germaine. According to the blood connection, she should be the younger sister of this body.
Ever since she met Lu Sheng, this girl would often come over to chat with him, about life, hobbies, and even how to find a boyfriend.
Slowly, the two of them became more familiar with each other.
Normally, he would not open the shop during his nap time, and she knew that. Why was she so rude today, spending time to come to him?
"Hehe. Brother Hal, my dad heard about you, so he came to visit me at school today. He also wants to see what you have in your shop. Give me some face, how about opening the shop earlier? "Fiona begged with a hint of coquettishness.
"Your dad?" Lu Sheng slowly moved his neck, and was much more awake now. "Alright, let him come in and see for himself."
He somewhat guessed the purpose of her visit.
Soon, Fiona opened the door wider, and walked in first. Then, she let a middle-aged man with white hair in.
The man was wearing white casual clothes, and looked serious, with a hint of anticipation. It could be seen that the material of the clothes he was wearing was expensive and definitely not cheap. There was a faint aura about him that indicated that he had been living above others for a long time and was not an ordinary person.
As soon as the man entered, he did not look at the shelves around him, but first looked at Lu Sheng.
Lu Sheng also roughly looked at him.
"You … really look like him …" Nuoding stared at Lu Sheng, a little shaken. He was exactly the same as him when he was young.
This feeling was very hard to describe. Other than the laziness in his bones, the rest of him, eyebrows, nose, eyes, there was nothing that did not look like him when he was young.
The moment he saw him, he knew that this man in front of him, was very likely his long lost son.
Calculating the time, his son should be around this age.
"Hello?" Lu Sheng extended his hand and waved.
Nuoding was pushed by her daughter, and only then did she react, and quickly extended her hand to shake Lu Sheng's.
"Notting Germain, Fiona's father. Nice to meet you. "He forced a smile on his face.
"Halsaladin, same," Lu Sheng said casually.
"Pardon me for asking, but I've heard from Fiona that you're an orphan, right?" Nuoding couldn't hold back at all, and immediately went straight to the point. He stared at Lu Sheng with an eager and fiery gaze. With a strong sense of benevolence and guilt.
"En, yes. I grew up in an orphanage. "Lu Sheng nodded.
"Then, have you thought about looking for your parents?" Nuoding asked somewhat nervously.
"I tried, but I couldn't find it. As I grew older, I gave up. "Lu Sheng shrugged.
"Don't you think it's a pity? Everyone else has parents, but you don't. "
"Of course there will be regrets. However, this is something destined by the heavens, and humans can't change it. The only thing I can do is to make myself feel better and live a better life. "Lu Sheng shrugged.
Nuoding was silent for a while.
"Yes, it's destined by the heavens, it's really a pity. You and Fiona seem to get along very well, in fact, if my eldest son was still here, he should be about the same age as you... "
"..." Lu Sheng didn't answer, he could roughly guess what she wanted to do.
Sure enough.
Nuoding changed the topic.
"After hearing from Fiona that you and I look alike, I couldn't wait to come and see you. Now... "He was breathing a little fast," Now, I got what I wanted... Seeing you, is like seeing me when I was young. Do you understand, do you understand what I mean? "
His breathing was rapid, and he couldn't speak in one breath. After being cut off twice, he was a little emotional.
"Sorry, calm down first." Lu Sheng shook his head, motioned him to sit down, and then turned to pour him a glass of water.
"Young man... I'm too impatient." Nuoding took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.
"No need to pour me water, I'll leave first, I'll visit again next time. You... you think about it... "Nuoding wanted to calm himself down, and also let his son calm down.
Suddenly knowing the result like this was too abrupt for both sides.
His son needed a process of acceptance, a process of changing his mind.
"Fiona." He didn't wait for Lu Sheng to answer, and called Fiona who was drinking water. "Let's go, let's go together. Let your big brother have a good rest. "
"Okay!"
Fiona also saw that something was wrong, her father seemed very sure, brother Howl was his biological son. However, before a paternity test was conducted, nothing could be confirmed. Both sides needed to calm down.
The father and daughter said goodbye to Lu Sheng, and walked out of the shop one after another.
Behind them came the sound of the shop door closing.
Nuoding took Fiona to a street corner on the right, there were already a few bodyguards waiting there for a long time, a few bulletproof luxury cars parked quietly on the street, ready to leave at any time.
Nuoding didn't say a word, opened the car door and got in. Fiona sat next to him in the row.
The bodyguards all got in the car.
He kept taking deep breaths, a little emotional.
After a while, he slowly calmed down.
"Has he always been like this, running a small shop here? Relying on this to make a living? " Nuoding slowly looked at the Saladin Convenience Store from the rearview mirror, the old decoration, the small shop front, deeply hurt his heart.
"Yes … at least since I knew him, I've never seen him have any other job." Fiona nodded.
Nuoding was silent.
The atmosphere in the car gradually became a little solemn, a little sad.
"It's my fault … if I had thought a little more, prepared a little more, maybe …" His face showed an unconcealable sadness and self-blame.
"Dad …" Fiona gently held his hand. "It's not your fault …"
"No, it's my fault …" Nuoding held his daughter's hand. "I'll make it up to him …" Thinking of the poor life his son had been living all these years, his heart choked, and he couldn't say a word.
"He came out of the orphanage alone and struggled in the society all by himself. He had no one to rely on. His head was bleeding, and he had to smile and bow to others. God knows how much hardship he went through to build this small shop … Fiona, you have to take care of your brother in the future. Think of it as making it up to him on behalf of dad. I know you're the most sensible child in the family, different from your brother … "
Fiona nodded seriously.
"I will."
Nuoding said no more, the reason he came here personally was to confirm whether the man Fiona was talking about was his son.
And he had achieved his goal.
Originally, he was just holding a trace of unrealistic fantasy and expectation, not letting go of any possibility, so he took the initiative to come along.
In fact, he also knew in his heart, after looking for so many years without success, the hope was very small.
But he did not expect, fate to play a big joke on him.
If it was not a fake, then just by looking at the man, it was very likely that he was his eldest son.
"After this, I'll go to my brother to ask for a few strands of hair, and go to the company's research institute to do a paternity test. Dad, don't worry, I'll take care of everything. "Fiona gently held the back of Nuoding's old hand.
"Yes. When the report comes out, I'll officially call for a board meeting, and distribute the previously decided shares to you … your brother, you, and your brother, I've already prepared. "Nuoding said seriously.
…
…
Lu Sheng also did not expect Nuoding to act so quickly, after finding out that Fiona was his sister, he used the huge network in his hands to find out the identity of Nuoding Germain, who was behind Fiona.
The reason why he did not want to recognize his family too early, was also because Nuoding Germain was too famous.
If he had too much contact with her too early, it would lead to him being exposed to the eyes of countless people. This was not good for him to find people.
But unfortunately, since the day Nuoding came to visit, Fiona came to him every two or three days, asking him about the past of his childhood, and also pointed out in words, that she and he were real brother and sister.
She also hinted at him, asking if he was willing to live with his parents, to live together. But Lu Sheng tactfully refused.
What a joke, he had too many secrets now, living alone was the easiest, to live together, there were too many things to hide, unless he hypnotized people every day, otherwise he would not be able to keep it a secret safely. But hypnotizing people every day would have a bad effect on the other person's spirit and soul, this was not something he could control.
So, although Fiona brought out all kinds of benefits, many benefits, Lu Sheng was not moved.
Although after Fiona secretly did a paternity test, he had been officially confirmed as the eldest son of the Germain family, Fiona's brother.
But he did not admit it, so Fiona and Nuoding did not say it openly.
Nuoding also came alone a few times, wanted to give a check to Lu Sheng, but was tactfully refused.
After a few times, Nuoding also understood that Lu Sheng did not want to change his current life, so she let Fiona be the bridge of communication between the two, she was also busy with the business of the group, could not come often.
The problem with his family was temporarily solved, on the other side, there was a problem with the church.
The Flesh and Blood Cthulhuism Society, one of the four churches, this church mainly took the path of the underworld and female club, finally had a conflict with the representative of the world's supernatural power, the Hero Alliance.
The cause was, a wandering folk hero who was originally favored by the Hero Alliance, was drawn to the Flesh and Blood Cthulhuism Society, and joined the church. This hero's ability was very special, and not insignificant.
The Hero Alliance was not satisfied, and continued to send people to lobby, but unexpectedly found that the folk hero's ability, in a short time, had a significant increase.
This caused them to be vigilant, so after a large-scale investigation, they finally unveiled the mysterious veil of the Flesh and Blood Cthulhuism Society.
The church's priests, bishops, and the low-level heroes of the Hero Alliance had a conflict in the confrontation, resulting in three deaths and one injury.
The church lost two, the Hero Alliance lost one, and the other was seriously injured.
The tragic result caused the conflict between the two sides to quickly intensify. Soon, the Flesh and Blood Cthulhuism Society sent out an archbishop and thirteen bishops, working together to retaliate. In a short time, they killed five C-level heroes of the Hero Alliance.
This caused a complete uproar in the supernatural world.
