Mark sat on the couch in the reception room, looking at his father, Greg Penner, who was just over 50 years old, with gray hair but still full of energy, and was bowing his head to correct the company papers.

Neither of them had any intention of talking, and remained silent until his mother, Alice Walton, came in and laid down a plate of fruit in front of him, and smiled kindly at him, and Mark was rarely relaxed.

Mark saw that the elder Penner had finally finished correcting the paperwork in his hand, and he sat up straight, ready to listen to the other party's reprimand.

Old Penner looked at his son, and he was actually very proud, and he had reason to be proud.

As a top student at Carnegie Mellon College, Mark not only obtained a master's degree in computer science, but also studied law on his own and studied ancient art history, which is a rare talent in his family.

At the age of 30, several companies have been formed, two of which are listed on the NASDAQ and are worth at least $1 billion.

But he is active by nature, and the courage to take risks really gives him a headache, but fortunately this time it is just a few killer whales, and he is driving a 30-meter luxury yacht, if the size is a little smaller, I am afraid he has already died in the belly of the fish.

Old Penner calmly asked, "Tell me, who encouraged you to go to that sea? Joey or Owen? or the girls?"

Mark was relieved when he heard the other party's rare unhurried tone of questioning, and replied calmly: "It was those girls who egged on Owen, and Owen wanted to show his bravery, so we drove the boat there." ”

When old Penner heard this, he asked solemnly, "Why don't you object?"

Mark replied a little depressed: "Those girls are Harvard students, I want to introduce them to Owen, you know that he only develops software, and he is not very keen on girls, and his parents complained to me a lot, worried that Owen would become gay, so ......"

Old Penner raised his hand to stop his words, and asked in a deep voice, "Is the matter of those two girls done?"

Mark nodded and replied calmly: "It's done, this is an accident, no one can predict it, their families have accepted the amount of compensation I proposed, and now they are going through the procedure." ”

The old man nodded slightly, and said slowly: "Good job, but, child, you know that our family is not a direct line, many people oppose my marriage to your mother, your mother doesn't like shopping malls and politics, so I have always asked you to keep a low profile in the whole family." I've always been proud of you, but this is a lesson for you, don't be proud of a little bit of achievement, it will ruin you. Got it?"

Mark nodded silently and replied, "I know, father, I always remember your teachings, be low-key, do things in a high-profile way, and don't be complacent. ”

"Well, who saved you, who was the other party, and what were the intentions?" asked Old Penner calmly.

Mark sighed to himself, shook his head and replied in a low voice: "It's a Chinese youth, I don't know how he did it, but it took him 2 minutes to cross 3 kilometers from the shore, suddenly appeared on the yacht, and then stunned the whales." He was very fast and left me with visual residues. He asked me not to tell the police the truth, and as for the attempt, I couldn't see it. ”

Old Penner frowned slightly when he heard this, and he thought about it for a while and asked, "Do you mean that he took the initiative to show up and save you?"

Mark nodded and replied, "His name is Yi Qin, and he left after going ashore with me without stopping." ”

Old Penner was silent, he realized that the person who saved his son was probably an Oriental stranger, what was the other party's intention to save people? Was it just a coincidence or was there someone behind it?

Since he took the helm of Walmart Group, he has been disfavored by many people because of his identity as a son-in-law.

In addition, in the past few years, pressure from all sides has been pouring in, and countless people are waiting to see his jokes. If it weren't for the support of his wife, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to sit in this position now.

Fortunately, his son is very competitive and stands out among countless young people in the family, which not only achieves his own career, but also makes him speak more in the group.

This is all thanks to the guidance and education of his wife, who is busy with work on weekdays, and if it weren't for his wife's assistance, Mark would have become a gentleman long ago.

Old Penner looked at Mark and asked in a deep voice, "What do you think should be done?"

Mark replied calmly, "I would like to invite him to the dinner as a reward for thanking him, after all, he saved me." What do you think? Father. ”

Old Penner waved his hand and replied: "Your decision is very correct, I will arrange for someone to invite him in your name, and you go to discuss with your mother to prepare those foods, after all, you are Chinese, and the taste may be different from ours." ”

"I have a question for you?" Mark asked calmly.

Old Penner nodded in agreement, and Mark asked suspiciously, "Father, why does that sea make animals crazy?"

When old Penner heard this, he thought for a moment and replied, "I shouldn't have answered you this question, but you are my child, and I decided to tell you anyway." Listen, there is something wrong with the meteorite that fell there, the European Church has already set its sights on it, they have found the same meteorite in the Mediterranean, they will all make animals go berserk and attack humans. You're lucky to have met that Chinese stranger this time, otherwise your life would have been in danger. ”

Mark was surprised and asked, "You mean there is a meteorite in the Mediterranean, and now this is in danger in the sea, and everyone who goes there will be attacked by animals?"

Old Penner waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, the church is already preparing to send people to salvage it, and they are very interested in that meteorite." However, the government is also interested and does not know which of them will finally get it. ”

Mark realized that the meteorite was indeed weird, and fortunately met Qin Yi, otherwise he would probably have been buried in the belly of the fish. As for how the church and the government fought over the meteorite, it was not his Penner's business, even the Walton family could not participate.

He stood up and nodded at old Penner, "I'll go find my mother to arrange a dinner." ”

Old Penner looked at Mark as he walked out of the reception room, he closed his eyes and was silent, and asked in a half-loud voice, "Your judgment?"

At this time, there was no one else in the reception room but him, and old Penner seemed to be speaking to the air, but a hoarse and low voice sounded in the room.

"Eastern cultivators, they rarely come to North America, he is just very fast, he doesn't have much power. ”

"How do you compare?"

"I tried it. ”

"You look for an opportunity to observe him at dinner. ”

"No problem, I'm interested in him. ”

Old Penner picked up his mobile phone and dialed the security personnel and said: "Investigate this Chinese named Yi Qin, I want to know the purpose of his coming to Miami." ”
