Near noon, while Wei Ran was sleeping soundly in the car with his dog on his pillow, a girl named Kou Kou also lightly knocked on the car window with a leg of lamb full of meat.
"What's wrong?" Wei Ran sat up from the completely flat seat, opened the car door and asked with a yawn.
"Come in and have lunch," Kou Kou said, carefully passing the leg of lamb in her hand forward.
"Is this what you want for lunch?" Wei Ran, who was a little confused from his sleep, asked subconsciously.
As soon as this stupid remark came out of her mouth, Kou Kou couldn't help but laugh. She handed it forward again and explained, "This is for it."
Glancing at Beria behind him who was already dripping with tears, Wei Ran took the leg of lamb and threw it to Beria angrily, "Get out of the car quickly."
Hearing this, Beria excitedly held the leg of lamb in his mouth, and then jumped out of the carriage with Wei Ran.
After the man and the dog stretched their backs, Kou Kou led them into the small shop that had a closed sign, passed through a corridor with floor-to-ceiling windows, and walked into a large room facing the courtyard.
At this time, Carlos and Mr. Dominique Loew were already sitting at the dining table, each holding a glass of wine and clinking glasses.
Look at the dishes on the old dining table. Each person has a hot plate of lamb stewed in red wine, plus a large bowl of salad. In addition, there is a basket of freshly baked bread.
, and a full glass of wine for each person.
"It seems that you have reached an agreement?" Wei Ran asked as he sat down at Kou Kou's signal.
"We just had a video call with Mr. Cappe"
Carlos wisely used his last name to distinguish, "I came here this time and brought Mr. Dominic's blood sample. After dinner, Mr. Loew and Miss Coco will accompany us back to Paris for DNA comparison.
Yes, after the results come out, if everything goes as expected, we will go to Hawaii immediately."
Looking at Dominic Loew, who had a slightly hesitant look on his face, Wei Ran raised his cup and joked, "It seems that I may be lucky enough to witness the birth of a rich man."
"Don't say that"
When Coco translated what lawyer Carlos just said into French, Mr. Loew, who was holding a cup in his hand, said with emotion in French, "I am over seventy years old, but I never thought that I would have a father at this age.
, and I didn’t even expect that my father was actually a rich man.”
"Whether it's for you, Miss Kou Kou, or Mr. Capet, this is a good thing, isn't it?" Carlos waited for Wei Ran to finish his translation and also raised his glass.
"It is indeed a good thing. At the very least, Kou Kou no longer has to waste her youth in this small shop. Look at this sensible girl. She is only 20 years old, but she already works in this small shop.
Five years."
"I believe that you will miss your current life from time to time in the future."
Wei Ran took a sip of cheap table wine, changed the subject and asked, "Mr. Loew, may I ask out of curiosity, what impression do you have of your mother?"
"almost none"
Mr. Loew, who is also old, shook his head and took a sip of wine before recalling, "I only know that my mother's name is Nadia Hill, and she is a blond woman from Belgium. And even these are still
The nuns who raised me told me this when I was very young.
In fact, the only impression I have of my mother is her tombstone and a photo album she left behind. Oh, of course, there is also the name she left me. Frankly speaking, I haven’t been to my mother’s house for a long time.
Check out the cemetery."
"After lunch, can I take a look at the photo album you mentioned?" As Wei Ran spoke, he clinked his glasses with the other person again.
“No need to wait until after lunch”
Loew put down his wine glass, reached out and picked up an old-looking photo album from the sofa next to him and handed it to Wei Ran, "This is it. This is her only relic. I just... showed it to him
."
In a very formal manner, he took out a pair of cotton gloves from his pocket and put them on. The moment Wei Ran opened the photo album, a smile appeared on his face.
On the first page of this photo album, apart from a floral German signature of "Nadia Hill", the only black and white photo was taken of those war orphans after they luckily escaped to Belgium.
The photo taken in Nadia and Dominic's hospital room.
"Mr. Loew, don't you want to take your mother with you to meet Mr. Capet?"
Wei Ran did not open the content at the back of the photo album, but instead gently closed it and returned it to the other party, "I think, no matter what complicated emotions and thoughts you have when you go to meet Mr. Cappe in Hawaii,
, your mother, Ms. Nadia, must really want to meet her Dominic."
"I will consider your suggestion." Loew took the photo album with a complicated expression, and then subconsciously glanced at Kou Kou who was sitting next to him.
Wisely, he did not continue the topic. Wei Ran took a large spoonful of red wine stewed lamb and a series of sincere compliments came out of his mouth.
As for the question asked by the girl named Kou Kou during the banquet about how he found this place, Wei Ran easily excused himself by saying, "According to the agreement signed in advance, this must be kept secret."
After eating a lunch that was absolutely satisfying in a relaxed atmosphere, everyone took a short rest. Wei Ran excused himself to drink and naturally gave up the driving job to Kou Kou. Obviously, this small move made Kou Kou
The young girl felt relieved a lot.
After rushing all the way to Paris, under Carlos's arrangement, the fully loaded off-road vehicle took Dominique Loew straight to a hospital that could provide DNA paternity testing.
As for Wei Ran, he got off the car early on the way, rushed to the airport in advance with his dog who was still eating the leg of lamb, and got into the private jet to wait.
Although others did not follow, the result was not at all as expected. That afternoon, before the sun set, Carlos took Mr. Love and his grandson onto the private plane, and there was also a body loaded into the plane.
Exquisitely crafted European-style coffin.
On the way to Hawaii, Wei Ran clearly noticed that compared to the little girl Kou Kou who looked excited to see everything new and wanted to take pictures everywhere, her grandfather Mr. Dominique Love was obviously a little too much.
Uneasy and overwhelmed.
However, this is understandable. After all, no matter who is suddenly told that he has an extra father in his seventies, and that he is also a rich father who is waiting for him to inherit the family property, I am afraid it is inevitable that he will be a little embarrassed.
After tossing and turning and restless, the private plane finally landed safely at Honolulu Airport after a long flight.
Wei Ran wisely did not participate in what happened next. He responded to Suisui and Katenka sisters who were waiting at the airport interface in advance, said goodbye to Carlos and others and left the airport.
"Is the investigation over?" He held Wei Ran's arm and asked excitedly, "Is that old man just now the heir?"
"Yes." Wei Ran nodded, "How have you been doing these days?" "Kamei helped me find a yacht and we went diving." Suisui explained excitedly, "We also went to several other islands.
I walked around a bit, but I didn’t go to that battleship, it’s waiting to be with you.”
"Yacht? Diving?"
Wei Ran glanced at the Katenka sisters walking in front without leaving any trace, and had already roughly guessed which yacht the other party had rented.
"You are interested in?"
Suisui said happily, "If you are interested, when do you have time we can rent a yacht and go out to sea again. I saw whales!"
"Let's forget about going to sea first." Wei Ran gestured his thumb behind him, "The matter over there isn't over yet, and the commission hasn't been received yet."
"That's what I wanted to ask just now," Suisui asked expectantly, "How much money can I get this time? Two million seven hundred thousand or six million?"
"I'm not so sure either"
Wei Ran spread his hands and said, "Let's wait for now. Once Mr. Carlos is finished with the inheritance, it's probably time to settle the expenses."
"In addition to paying millions of dollars, wouldn't it be possible to get a piece of real estate at random? Tell me, do you want a manor in Hawaii or a farm in Canada?" Suisui had already dreamed of a dream.
"Which one do you want?" Wei Ran accompanied the other party to dream with great interest.
"I haven't visited that farm yet," Suisui muttered in distress, apparently suffering from difficulty in choosing.
"Let's go back to where we live and rest first." As Wei Ran spoke, he held Suisui in his arms and got into the car door opened by the Katenka sisters.
The journey back to the beautiful coffee plantation was smooth and smooth. After the two of them exchanged saliva enzymes and proteins seriously, they finally eliminated the longing for them after being apart for so many days.
In the blink of an eye, early the next morning, Wei Ran allowed Suisui to arrange and took him to have a fun day at Pearl Harbor. By the way, he also went for a detailed tour of the USS Missouri, the battleship he had longed for.
"If I take out the metal book, I don't know if I will have a chance to witness the surrender signing ceremony of the little devil..."
On the spacious deck, Wei Ran stood under the big and scary main gun. While Anfisa held up the camera to take a photo of herself and Suisui hugging each other, she couldn't help but think about it secretly.
That scary scene.
"Why are you still shivering?" Suisui asked in a low voice in Chinese that only the two of them could understand, "Were you exhausted yesterday?"
"Who begged this morning..." "Shut up!"
Suisui reached out and pressed Wei Ran's mouth, but she didn't notice at all that Anfisa, who was holding a camera not far away, pressed the shutter button again.
Suisui waited patiently to take a group photo of the Katenka sisters. Just as the four of them were preparing to continue touring the battleship, Carlos called.
"I hope I didn't disturb your play time," Carlos said apologetically as soon as the call was connected.
"Won't"
Wei Ran waved to Suisui, who was still blushing, and then asked, "How do Mr. Cape and Mr. Loew get along?"
“Quite pleasant”
Carlos paused and said seriously, "Victor, if it is convenient for you now, Mr. Capet would like to meet with you."
“Of course convenient”
Wei Ran regretfully looked at the ticket he still held in his hand, but he agreed very cheerfully, "I am on the battleship Missouri now, not far from you, I will rush over right away."
"This is the best thing." Carlos immediately breathed a sigh of relief, "I'll wait for you at the entrance of the medical center."
"OK"
Wei Ran agreed again and hung up the phone. At the same time, he secretly wondered how much commission he could get this time.
