Gaia was also asking herself what her mindset was when she deceived Louis into buying the first bio-mecha in mecha history for such a small amount of money.
Undeniably, he was quite happy for a while because of this bio-mech.
But after the initial joy, a wave of guilt washed over me.
So he teamed up with Louis's second-in-command to sign him up for the survival program on the desolate planet.
As long as Louis is not given a chance to react, he doesn't need to worry about the affair being exposed and the relationship between the two parties breaking down.
His plan was well-thought-out, and it proved successful in the early stages.
But to his utter surprise, after Louis finished his survival on the desolate planet, instead of plunging into the laboratory to continue the production of bio-mechs and the research and development of the next generation, he followed Sang Ning to planet E72.
Then, his worst fears came true.
At this moment, Gaia was bewildered and also felt guilty.
Feeling so guilty, I wish I could dig a hole and crawl into it.
They wished they could sever all contact with each other and pretend, like ostriches, that their actions had not been discovered.
However, he knew the truth in his heart.
This is something we can't do.
If he actually did it, the long-standing friendship between him and Louis, and even between their two families, would be completely broken, with no chance of recovery.
While his brainstorming went on and on, he saw Louis's eyes practically spitting fire with anger and chuckled awkwardly, "Let's talk about... is it possible that I was having financial difficulties at the time?"
Louis's face changed instantly, transforming from a fair-skinned beauty to a bluish-green one.
Gaia's heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly explained, "Louis, please listen to my explanation... I didn't mean that, but I was really having financial difficulties at the time..."
"Shut up."
Louis trembled with anger and said, "Now I understand. All these years you've been fooling me like a fool."
"You just wait."
With that, he decisively cut off contact with Gaia, then proceeded to block her completely, and then contacted his great-grandfather.
The call was answered instantly, followed by an elderly man whose white hair and wrinkles, though advanced in years, did not appear cloudy but rather sharp.
"My sweet baby, what's wrong...?"
"Great-grandfather!"
Louis interrupted the old man, tears streaming down his face.
Sang Ning and Qin Heng immediately felt like they'd been screwed over.
Why is she crying again?
Did Sang Ning bully you?
Upon seeing his precious child crying so heartbrokenly, the old man's expression changed instantly.
Sang Ning was truly speechless, feeling like he'd been screwed over.
What does this have to do with her?
Why would she need to bully Louis?
Why did the old man think that Louis had bullied him when he saw Louis crying?
Sang Ning felt it necessary to defend herself, but before she could even open her mouth, Louis started rattling off the whole story.
The old man, "???"
What? The first bio-mecha that his precious son created was bought by that brat Gaia?
That despicable guy not only spent 500 million, but also tricked his precious child into participating in a survival competition on a desolate planet.
That's bad enough, but after the truth came out, he even tried to argue that he had fooled his precious son.
Very good, he's a really good guy.
No wonder he's the offspring of that old bastard Desi; they're both shameless and thick-skinned.
The old man, who was furious but laughed, said gently, "Great-grandfather knows. You don't need to feel wronged. Just consider it a lesson learned."
"I know, but I feel so suffocated."
Louis said dejectedly, "I always thought I was a genius among geniuses, but I never imagined that I've been such a fool all these years, being completely fooled by Gaia, a guy whose intelligence and mental level aren't even as high as mine."
At this point, he clutched his chest and said with a pained expression, "Great-Grandpa, my heart aches so much. I feel like I've lost all hope for life."
"I feel like I can no longer feel love in this world."
Sang Ning couldn't help but complain to Qin Heng, "I think he's so pretentious."
Qin Heng hummed in agreement, saying, "He's just a pretentious person. His little thing is nothing. Even though I'm like this, I still don't feel any love."
At this point, he sighed, "The young man is still too young. He was protected too much before and has no idea how dangerous the world is."
The old man had excellent hearing, and since Sang Ning and Qin Heng knew that Louis was his great-grandfather, although they lowered their voices, they didn't speak in a whisper.
Therefore, the old man heard their conversation clearly.
Hearing this, he twitched his lips and said, "What you two young friends say is true. Our Louis has indeed been too well protected. I hope you will teach him more about human relationships in the future."
Sanning, "······"
Qin Heng, “…”
Oh no, the old man almost called them out by name. Are they going to leave?
They exchanged a glance, and Sang Ning and Qin Heng simultaneously entered the frame to greet the old man.
"Hello, sir!"
Hello everyone!
The old man smiled kindly at Sang Ning, "Ms. Sang, thank you for taking care of my son Louis during his time on planet E72."
"His survival on this desolate planet is also thanks to your care. This old man is extremely grateful once again!"
"You're too kind."
Sang Ning smiled and said, "In Survival on the Wilderness Star, we are teammates. It's not a matter of who takes care of whom. Louis himself is also very capable."
She has to thank Philoya; without her persuasion, she wouldn't have considered teaming up with Louis.
“Now we are friends. It is only right that we treat our friend well since he doesn’t mind that my family is poor and comes to visit us.”
"You are a good boy."
Better than Gaia.
The old man then looked at Qin Heng, "You're a good boy too!"
He said with great gratitude, "If you hadn't reminded my son Louis, he might have been kept in the dark his whole life."
Louis didn't like hearing that. He said, "Great-grandfather, I'm not that stupid. It may take me a long time to realize it, but it certainly won't take a lifetime."
Saying this is no different than saying nothing at all.
The old man was quite disappointed with his precious son's emotional intelligence, so he didn't bother to argue with him and said, "You don't need to worry about anything else. If he gets ripped off, so be it. We're not short of money anyway."
"It's just a bit of a shame about that mech."
At this point, the old man sighed, "But it's too late now, and there's nothing we can do about it."
"Don't worry, Gaia won't just let this go by thinking he's fooled you."
The old man spoke calmly, so calmly that there was not the slightest fluctuation in his emotions.
Sang Ning and Qin Heng both sensed danger at the same time; there was a murderous aura.
Gaia is in for a world of trouble!
His family might be in trouble!
It all depends on whether Gaia's elders know how to conduct themselves and whether they can quell the anger of the old man and his family.
If they can't dispel it, then things will get really funny.
Just as I was pondering this, the old man suddenly said, "Thank you both for the reminder and for your kindness. The generous gift will be delivered later."
See you next time!
