Supreme God Of War!

Chapter 4: Attending Inauguration Ceremony.

At this moment, Richard Nicholas' cell phone rang:

"It's so embarrassing, and I'm going to pick up the phone."

Richard Nicholas walked out the door, connected to the phone. The other end of the line goes to Vincent Scott's voice.

"Mr. Richard, the document has been passed down. He wants you tomorrow to take over as general manager of three regions and attend the inauguration ceremony."

Richard Nicholas replied casually, "you know my personality, never liked such places, the post of minister. I can take charge, but the inauguration is over."

"These are the rules of the superior, Mr. Richard, and it's not easy to cancel."

"Then let you attend on my behalf."

"This is not appropriate? The superior will disagree."

"If you don't agree, don't let me take the position of curator anymore, pass my word on to them."

"Mr. Richard, don't be angry. I'll go and repeat it."

Richard Nicholas hung up the phone. He was about to return. Edgar James happily walked in.

"Oh, who's on the phone?"

"Friends."

"What kind of useless kind of friend do you have?" Edgar James said: "The same thing as joining the army, you look at your brother-in-law and look at yourself. Why is it strange? My brother-in-law just agreed to take me to the inauguration ceremony tomorrow. Look at my skills. What about you? You can squat at home, wait and watch TV. Iwas with my new curator top shaking hands!"

Richard Nicholas asked with a smile, "Isn't participation so easy? If you can't participate, even Albert Johns. It's embarrassing not to participate, isn't it?"

"Huh!" 

Edgar James shouted, "Are we not allowed to participate? Are you sure?"

She was talking when Serena James came out.

Her face was full of blackness. Someone inside had said something unpleasant to her.

She passed by Richard Nicholas with only two words: "Go home."

"Oh, sister, don't go. Your brother hasn't even had a drink with you yet," said Edgar James strangely.

Serena James bowed her head quickly toward her car, and Richard Nicholas followed.

Opening the car door to sit in, Serena James aggressively knocked on the steering wheel to vent her anger, then held her head and sighed.

Control, self-pity, discontent, and pain are all poured out at this moment.

Richard Nicholas glanced at her, not too many demonstrations, and turned his head out of the window, looking indifferently.

Serena James pressed the accelerator and quickly left this uncomfortable place.

The car is halfway there.

Serena James said indignantly, "do you know how people judge you?"

"What's your assessment?"

"Weak, humble, without the will to advance."

"Well."

"Ah? You hear these words without a little reaction?"

Richard Nicholas turned to Serena James: "what reaction do you expect me to have? Anger, discomfort, or fight with them?"

Serena James bit her lips, she wanted to say something, but she didn't know how to say it.

She just wanted to see Richard Nicholas struggle.

Richard Nicholas continued to look out the window, suddenly asking, "All these years of military service, life has always been very boring. Do you know how I relieve my melancholy?"

Serena James said nothing.

"My favorite thing is to go to the circus, not to watch high-tech moves, but to watch him show business."

"What?"

Serena James suspected a glance at Richard Nicholas, not knowing what he meant by that.

Does he regard people who mock him at a family party as a clown? It's not Richard Nicholas that he is not angry at, but because he's enjoying his opponent's performance? 

They go home.

Serena James and Richard Nicholas walked into the living room and saw Edric James sitting on the sofa, holding a pen and writing for a long time. Scratch one's head.

"Dad, you're home."

"Umm."

"What does the head of the city say?"

Edric James didn't raise his head either: "We've got it. Tomorrow's the inauguration of the curator. I'm acting on behalf of the greedy department. The family. If it is possible to have a good relationship with the person in charge, it will surely be beneficial in the future."

Serena James glanced at what Edric James wrote: "Dad, what are you writing?"

"Gift."

"Who do you want to give to?"

Edric James said, "Isn't this a waste of time? Are you going to attend the inauguration with your bare hands? Don't you prepare a little stuff? I can't figure out what the new curator's personality will be like.”

Serena James said, "I don't understand these things."

Richard Nicholas walked up and glanced at the presents written by Edric James, most of them precious, as gifts. She's not bad, the problem is that Richard Nicholas is not interested in these things.

"Daddy, you feel these gifts are outrageous," he said with a smile.

"What?"

"You can give these gifts, and someone else can go. This isn't all about my sincerity."

Edric James nodded: "That makes sense, so you feel like you should give it away. What's good?"

"Drink."

"Isn't wine more common?"

Richard Nicholas said, "It's the old Rocky GRACliano wine."

"Oh? What's so special about this wine?"

"Not either." Richard Nicholas explained, "Life in RocKy is complicated. Every soldier who fights wants a sip of wine is a distant hope. This old wine is cheap and heavy, single-stranded, a favorite low-ranking soldier's wine.”

Edric James frowned and said, "The wine that the lower ranks drink is wrong. Can you give it to the person in charge? He's from Rocky but can't be a low-level soldier."

Richard Nicholas said, "In Rocky, officers and soldiers sleep together. We used to share a bed, a cup, and a glass of old wine to be good at drinking."

Richard Nicholas convinced Edric James.

Your understanding of Rocky is far behind Richard Nicholas.

"Well, that's a little bit of a try."

"Now I'm going to send someone to buy a long-standing Graciano, Richard Nicholas, I hope there is no misinformation from you this time."

Edric James immediately looked for a drinker.

Now Richard Nicholas' cell phone rings again.

"Mr. Richard, they've agreed as long as you're willing to continue. Hate the position of curator, anyone who comes to the inauguration ceremony they don't notice."

Richard Nicholas said, "Well, help me get two guest tickets go."

"Huh? No, Mr. Richard, are you kidding me? Originally you, Loh, the person in charge, should have come to the ceremony. The result you let me attend is omitted, but the rest ask me to help you to keep two guest tickets. Do you want to be a guest to see the story of my smile?"

Richard Nicholas coldly said, "you want to defy the order. It's mine?"

Vincent Scott was afraid: "No, I'm just going to do it." what?"

"That's right, the attendance list this time helped me to get rid of it. Who's the name?"

"Who?"

Richard Nicholas laughed wickedly: "Albert John, Edgar James."

*** 

Late at night.

Richard Nicholas and Serena James walked into the bedroom.

They're husband and wife, reasonably speaking, sleeping in the same room, one bed.

It's just that the two are still the same as when we first met. So if we share the same bed, everyone will feel weird. 

Especially Serena James. She's never even slept with one. What girl, let alone a new man?

Although this man is her husband.

Richard Nicholas doesn't embarrass her, and he's holding a teddy bear. Spread the bed to the ground.

"what are you doing?" asked Serena James.

"you sleep in bed, and I sleep on the ground."

"This is..."

"Don't worry, and I've been in the army for years. I'm used to it. It's about sleeping on the ground."

Serena James said nothing more, turning off the light under the blanket.

Richard Nicholas suddenly said in the dark, "I'm so sorry."

Serena James' whole body shook. She didn't expect Richard NicHoles said this to her.

Richard Nicholas said, "These years in the army, two years. The person I want to apologize to the most is my brother, and the other is you. Suppose you could come back sooner, em. My son won't die if I could come back sooner, neither would you, sisterIt's too much resentment."

Tears held back years in a flash, but Serena James doesn't stop spilling.

For the past five years, she's been suffering from all sorts of rumors every day, groundless, so many times bullied, even one person to show off, can only find a place where no one is hiding. Weep furtively.

She's very tired of life.

Richard Nicholas said, "Rest assured, I've come back, will Don't let you suffer any more self-pity. This is a man's promise to you."

He can't make up for his brother, at least.do one's best to make up for one's wife.

Early the following day.

Richard Nicholas got up early, got dressed, then called Serena James and got out of bed.

"What's the point of waking up so early?"

"Participate in the ceremony."

Serena James was startled: "What holiday?"

"Today is the inauguration of the director of three regions, and I asked you to get two guest tickets. You and I go and have a look."

Surprised, Serena James asked through Edric James, the inauguration. It must be hard for even Edric James to work in this city for more than twenty years. Selection is eligible for attendance.

Ordinary people don't think about it.

It's hard to get a guest ticket. He was invited by two keys simultaneously, guessing that only a high-ranking talent like Albert John could quickly.

But Richard Nicholas doesn't look like he's talking to make a joke.

With the ceremony, Serena James finished dressing, hurried to breakfast, then drove Richard Nicholas to the door of the building where the inauguration ceremony took place.

At this moment, the cars parked here are all supercars worth millions, showing the noble identity of the guests.

Serena James' car parked here doesn't seem very appropriate.

"Richard Nicholas, are you sure we're qualified to enter?" Serena James again looked suspicious. If she couldn't come in later, it would be too embarrassing to be off her head.

"Just trust me."

Richard Nicholas led Serena James towards the door of the building, and now, three people came from behind.

"Oh, sister, brother-in-law, who are you?"

Serena James, who heard the voice, knew that her second brother Edgar James was her brother, and as she turned around, she also saw Edgar James, Paul James, and Albert John be on their way.

Edgar James happily said, "What a coincidence, but meeting in this place, oh, bringing your family's belongings? What are you doing?"

Richard Nicholas said, “Isn't this even for the inauguration?"

Edgar James looked stunned at Albert John: "Brother-in-law, did you also give them two invitation tickets?"

Albert John waved his hand, "With my authority, only three invitation tickets can be obtained at the most."

"Oh?" Edgar James asked again, So Edric James got it?"

Albert John scornfully said, "What does he count for? His invitation came from giving gifts to the new leader to ask for a leg, get a leg. Who gives people the right to buy tickets?"

Hearing that, Edgar James smiled.

"If that's the case, sister, you're not qualified to enter. Why are you here for the inauguration? Oh, the market. What if I want to go in?"

Serena James frowned. She also suspected that two of Richard Nicholas' invitations were fake.
