Chapter 264: 134 Grumpy Old Dad_2

Father-daughter relationship rather tense?

That was not conducive to their plan.

Taking advantage of the moment of handing the suitcase to the porter robot, Yang Ming whispered something in Hera’s ear, and Hera immediately hooked Yang Ming’s arm, stood on tiptoe, and pecked him on the cheek.

Yang Ming responded with a smile, wrapping his arm around Hera’s slender waist, seeming to feel the smoothness of her skin through her clothes.

“Shall we go shopping at the mall here first?”

“Of course, dear,” Hera nestled in Yang Ming’s arm, resembling those deeply-in-love couples, “I’ll listen to you.”

Not far behind them, a suspicious man adjusted the brooch on his chest.

The brooch was a hidden camera.

The footage captured here was presented in high-definition, stereo sound inside a black Armored Hover Car in the parking lot.

Mr. Nardo was extremely anxious at the moment.

He frowned at the projection in front of him, and the new M277 laser pistol beside him blinked with a weak “low light environment reminder” lamp.

“How is it, how could Hera suddenly become like this?”

The two officers in the front seats exchanged glances, both somewhat amused and helpless.

Nardo buried his head in his hands, muttering:

“How did she become such a woman, without a bit of reason, actually listening to others about everything, I spent seven years cultivating her independent thinking, oh, this damned love.”

“This boy is deceiving her, isn’t he?”

The two officers spoke in unison, “Yes, doctor.”

“I knew it!”

Nardo clenched his fists, and if they dared to make any excessive moves.

If this boy wanted to toy with his daughter’s feelings, he would have to let the other party know what a father’s wrath was.

“Doctor, they are going to find a taxi.”

“Follow them!” Nardo immediately ordered, “I’m sorry to trouble you, but don’t let them find out.”

The Armored Hover Car started in advance, moving slowly towards the exit.

An officer reminded, “Doctor, we better remain discreet, you can only come into contact with your daughter.”

“Don’t worry, I understand this,” Nardo said, “In case of necessity, I’ll ask you for help to knock that guy out or anesthetize him, or throw him into a sewage pool for a bath, you can do that, right?”

The officer in the driver’s seat smiled calmly, “Don’t worry, I’ll take action.”

Nardo immediately felt confident.

…

The taxi headed toward a small town named “Refreshing Hot Springs.”

This small town was on the fringe of the necrotizing disease zone, considered a famous dating spot for couples, featuring various style buildings and over a hundred hot spring inns.

Closer to the inside, the towns were already sealed off due to the necrotizing disease affecting crops.

This was the area Yang Ming and Hera could get closest to the secret base.

In the taxi, Hera was learning how to apply makeup, while Yang Ming took an electronic version of the “Law Code of the New Federation” to read carefully.

They looked very harmonious together.

If Hera was not leaning on Yang Ming on purpose, the driver would only think they were two good friends traveling together.

Next to them, a military Armored Hover Car began slowly overtaking them.

The driver dared not move at all, even considering braking to let the nearby big shot pass early.

But the Armored Hover Car adjusted its speed to keep relatively in sync.

Behind the one-way glass of the hover car, a pair of eyes stared closely at the taxi’s back seat, clearly seeing the scene inside.

“Oh, he is reading, it should be the Law Code.”

Nardo kept muttering,

“His ideal is to become a lawyer? That is quite a good career plan, or is he studying law early to commit a crime? He is a dangerous element.”

“Doctor,” the officer beside him chuckled, “This young man looks pretty decent, refined, cultured, and also quite handsome.”

“Being handsome serves no purpose, talent and learning are the value standards to measure a man.”

“That’s true, but he can easily win a girl’s heart.”

“Look, Doctor, it seems like they’re going to interact.”

In the back seat of the taxi, Hera turned to ask Yang Ming how she did with her makeup.

Yang Ming gave a thumbs up.

Just as Hera felt pleased with herself, she heard Yang Ming’s uncontrollable laughter, which made her angrily scratch his underarm.

The two of them fooled around for a while.

The taxi driver grinned broadly, seemingly reminded of his own youth.

Behind the one-way glass of the adjacent armored car, Dr. Nardo looked disheartened.

“Yes, she wants to start her own life, she wants to have her own life, and a reliable partner can bring her much more than the father she detests.”

An officer beside him could not help but raise his hand and pat the doctor on the shoulder.

This technical backbone they knew usually gave them the impression of a workaholic, the doctor’s eyes only focused on tackling research topics, and whenever he emerged cheerfully from the lounge, it meant a technical problem had been resolved.

But now, they realized that besides this grand theme of science, Dr. Nardo had another cherished treasure.

His daughter.

“Doctor, they seem to have kissed.”

“Huh?”

The frustrated Nardo jerked his head up, just in time to see Yang Ming lean down to give Hera a gentle peck on the cheek, while Hera looked up at Yang Ming, wrapping her arms around his neck in return.

Click, click!

The laser pistol’s safety device unlocked swiftly.

Nardo was about to lift the gun to shoot when the officer beside him hurriedly pressed the doctor’s arm down.

“Calm down! Stay calm, doctor! That’s your daughter’s boyfriend!”
