Chapter 161

"Thank you for your kindness. I can't accept this very much."

In the study, Luke sat in a chair and waved away the cigars handed over by the president.

Many people know that the lieutenant general has no bad habits.

Neither smoking, wine is only a taste.

The only thing that deserves criticism may be private life.

However, this minor defect is really insignificant for young people and high-class society.

Even the nominal leader of the country, the president who enters the White House, may not have a good private life.

What's more, the Pentagon's army lieutenant general.

"Well, it's a good thing to have good habits. Young people rarely take the initiative to refuse to destroy their bodies like you."

The president was not angry, but praised.

"Yes, I value the rules of work and rest."

Luke smiled. He would do some warm-up exercises to promote blood circulation before going to bed every day.

Then sleep until dawn and never leave fatigue and stress until the next day.

Like Malena, Peggy, white queen Emma

All the women who spent the night with him said that Mr. lieutenant general's work and rest were normal.

"This is one of my few personal hobbies. I can't change it for a while, and I don't want to change it. The smell of tobacco can calm me down and think calmly."

The president took out a high-grade cigar from the box, played with it for a moment, smoked it patiently with a long match, and it can be seen that he enjoyed the process.

"This box was given to me by Churchill. We have a common language on the taste of cigars. Although my personal doctor told us to reduce the intake of tobacco and alcohol, in the short life of mankind, without cigars and whisky, we have lost most of our meaning."

Luke nodded in agreement. Although he was not interested in tobacco and alcohol, it was because he had other hobbies.

"The prime minister also gave me a box. I'll bring it over another day and give it to your Excellency the president."

He wondered if Churchill gave cigars to everyone. It was said that Roosevelt, who died, also received them.

"How sorry."

The president laughed twice, then lowered his voice and said, "don't let Beth know that she doesn't like me smoking cigars."

"Of course. It's a secret between men."

Luke blinked and replied with great.

A few minutes later, after chatting, their topic returned to normal.

"The s.h.i.e.l.e.l.d. has received intelligence and found that the Soviet Union has taken frequent actions recently. It not only vigorously develops the nuclear industry, but also plans to restart the super soldier program during World War II - as far as I know, they have a secret organization called Leviathan, which is actively recruiting biological experts and cultivating excellent soldiers."

In order to delay as much time as possible, create opportunities for Howard.

Luke opened his mouth and talked about the latest trends in the Soviet Union.

The president sitting opposite is not a mediocre politician.

On the contrary, he is very ambitious and enterprising.

After World War II, the president who came to the White House first put forward the strategic goal of seeking world hegemony.

The defeat of the axis countries, coupled with the recession of Britain and France, weakened.

Relying on its developed military strength and economic accumulation, the bald eagle began to covet the throne of world overlord.

If it were not for the birth of Atlantis, it would temporarily block the White House and the Pentagon and prepare to intervene in other countries' internal affairs and implement the pace of global expansion.

At this time, perhaps the bipolar pattern has been formed.

"Lieutenant General Carville, the red empire is indeed worthy of vigilance. They may be the biggest enemy!"

The President let out a puff of blue smoke and said solemnly.

"Sometimes, I also marvel at the firm belief of these people and the action ability of collectivism."

The winner of World War II was not only the United States, but also a Siberian red hairy bear.

In the Yalta four Nation Conference, another Chinese power stepped on the world stage and showed its mysterious power.

That's an unopened copy. It's not included in the world map for the time being.

"With regard to the peace summit to be held in a few days and the distribution of interests in Atlantis, I'm going to bother lieutenant general Carville."

The president put down a quarter of his cigar and solemnly said, "the future of the United States belongs to young people like you."

Luke smiled. He didn't want to make waves before and after. It was easy to be shot dead on the beach.

The bright future of the lighthouse country clearly belongs to an unborn real estate tycoon.

That is the most suitable person to lead America to greatness again in his lifetime - squint smile.

For the next 40 minutes, the two of them in the study had a lot of fun and chatted.

During the visit, the president also asked Luke if he was interested in going to Moscow.

And at the worst, the two sides started three wars, and the Soviet Union launched a nuclear bomb. Is he confident of intercepting it.

Luke naturally avoided talking about such a problem and was vague.

He's not Dr. Manhattan on the next set. He's not interested in human nuclear deterrence.

"That's all for today. Beth's boneless steak should also be ready."

The president pressed out his cigar, waved away the smell of tobacco, and pushed the door out with a smile.

Then he saw a very contrary picture.

In the living room, Howard sat on the sofa, flanked by the president's wife and the president's daughter.

He seemed to say something interesting, which made the other two people cover their mouths and smile. The atmosphere was quite harmonious.

"What's going on?"

The president looked confused and complicated.

Inexplicably, it feels like Lao Wang next door has raided his wife and daughter.

Originally, he appreciated Howard's talent, and stark industries was also an important defense contractor for the Pentagon.

But now, the president looks at the bearded man who winks and tries to show his humor, but he hates it more and more.

"What are you talking about? I heard laughter in my study."

The president stifled his anger and asked dryly.

"Mr. President, I just said something about myself when I was in Britain."

Howard cleared his throat and said in a serious way, "I used to live in London before the war began. For a while, I wanted to grow a beard in order to reflect my masculinity. As a result, the owner of the hotel laughed at me, 'ha, your mouth is like my wife doesn't shave under her face.' he really said that at that time. It was very impolite."

"How do you answer?"

Luke took it in his ear.

"I looked in the mirror, then nodded, 'well, you're right, it's really similar', and then the boss left proudly."

Howard said seriously, as if it were true.

The president's wife sitting next to him laughed and yelled.

Women are always more receptive to colored jokes than girls.

"Mr. Stark's experience is really rich."

The president smiled rather than smiled. He was very dissatisfied with his wife sitting so close to Howard.

"Is there anything interesting? I also want to hear it and increase my knowledge."

"Still in London, he was the innkeeper. His wife usually worked as an assistant to the magician in the theater. Once, he came home early and found his wife undressed and standing in the bedroom."

Howard touched his beard, learned his movements and tone, and said seriously, "the innkeeper was very confused and asked questions. His wife hesitated and didn't know how to explain."

"Later, under the pressure of the boss, his wife said that she had learned a magic recently, and then shouted, 'now is the time to witness a miracle'. A naked magician who was also naked changed out of the cabinet."

"This surprised the hotel owner. He didn't expect that his wife could not only become a living person, but also lose each other's clothes. It's incredible."

This time it was the president's turn. The daughter couldn't help smiling, shrugged her shoulders hard, and her round face showed two blushes.

After the warm-up joke, the president's wife finally remembered the Texas boneless steak and rushed into the kitchen.

Others also sat at the table, and soon a tempting aroma floated out.

"What a good craft."

Luke is not interested in the president's daughter, but he is full of praise for the boneless steak made by the president's wife.

Take a bite, the gravy is full and the taste is rich.

It is neither greasy nor fresh. It reminds people of the secret beef of little Sheldon's house.

"Just have fun."

The president's wife said modestly.

She's used to being sure of her cooking.

"Is there any secret recipe? It's really delicious! After tasting such beef, I'm afraid I won't order steak again."

Howard jumped out and the big piece of beef couldn't stop his mouth.

"With all due respect, madam, I'd like to exchange all the shares of stark industries for this recipe."

Compared with Luke's bland praise, Howard's exaggerated statement is easier to please the president's wife.

This is the strength of the prodigal son in love, the dating talent and the hearty arsonist.

The intention of launching an offensive directly against the president's daughter is too obvious and a little too hasty.

Using circuitous tactics to please the president's wife is a wiser choice.

Of course, it's just to help Luke out.

Howard is also not interested in becoming the president's son-in-law.

He is a dissolute prodigal son. He can't go to the grave of love so early - even the president's daughter is called Mary.

"One teaspoon of cumin, one cup of brown sugar, two teaspoons of smoked red pepper, three teaspoons of dried mustard..."

Some of the president's floating wives happily said the secret recipe.

Howard looked attentive and took paper and notes.

Like, he really cares about this secret beef recipe.

The president next to him was silent and wanted to smash the steak on the plate in each other's face.

What's this guy doing to please my wife?

The president remembered the previous two jokes and felt like the unlucky hotel owner.

During the 20 minute meal, Howard's Rainbow farts, compliments, and the laughter of the president's wife and her daughter echoed on the table.

As for the president?

Like an outsider, he couldn't get in at all. He had nothing to do but talk to Luke.

Selling his daughter's marriage plan was so messed up by Howard, who was killed in the air and rubbed rice strongly.

After dinner, the living room was full of people.

While the president's wife was cleaning up in the kitchen, the president finally found a chance.

He deliberately ignored Howard, who was getting close to his daughter, cordially took Luke and looked like a warm-hearted elder.

"Lieutenant General Carville, what do you think of family and marriage?"

The president insinuated and winked at his daughter.

However, the latter was chatting with Howard about Agatha Christie's latest novel and didn't notice his father at all.

"I'm young, not experienced enough, not knowledgeable enough, nothing to say."

Luke smiled faintly and avoided the topic.

"Mr. President, do you want to introduce me to someone? I don't have any ideas in this regard for the time being, but Howard has always wanted to find his ideal partner."

"If you have a suitable lady, you might as well introduce him."

"Right, Howard?"

Howard, who has been from Agatha Christie to Arthur Conan Doyle, nodded decisively.

He looked sincere in his eyes and said in a low voice, "yes, I've long wanted to settle down and live a peaceful life. I just didn't find the soul mate I wanted."

"Mr. President, although there are various rumors about Howard, it is said that he dates three or four women at the same time a week. He is busy working during the day, goes to the hotel for the night, is proficient in time management, and has an affair with many Hollywood female stars."

Luke took the topic more and more biased and said, "but I can guarantee that Howard is not as honest as it is written in the newspaper. He is obsessed with science and is a friend worthy of communication. I believe he can become a qualified husband and an excellent father in the future."

Before the stunned president recovered, Howard said modestly, "Luke is the example I need to learn. Although he is young, he is clean and not close to women..."

The two brazen guys, like crosstalk, boasted crazy business to each other, leaving the president no room to intervene.

After all kinds of accidents this night, the president was a little tired and finally gave up the idea of selling his daughter.

He waved his hand, showing the meaning of seeing off: "it's getting late, lieutenant general Carville, and... Mr. stark, I won't keep you overnight."

Luke got up at once.

After a few greetings, take Howard away.

"How's it going? Did you do well?"

Howard, who walked out of the Blair state guesthouse, said triumphantly.

"It's more than good. I'm worried that if you continue to stay, Mr. President will smash the red wine I brought on your head."

Luke smiled.

Howard is worthy of being a friend of women. He can master even the progression of the president's wife.

"So I paid a heavy price. Luke, don't forget what you promised."

Howard couldn't help getting cold behind his back when he remembered the look in the president's eyes before he left.

However, in order to step into the legendary magic world and experience what female warlocks, female goblins, demons, centaurs

Even if the president writes down his name in a small book, it's worth it!

"As I said, we are friends and won't lie to you."

Luke promised.

Anyway, he has attended the peace summit in Paris and will go to Kama Taj. It's no problem to bring Howard.

……

……

Blair state guesthouse, presidential suite.

Send the two troublesome guys away and the president returns to his study.

He needs to smoke a cigar and calm down.

"Who are you?"

Just sitting on the chair, a strange figure suddenly appeared in the room.

Each other's hands are behind their backs, wearing strange purple helmets and purple and green retro robes.

"You don't need to know who I am."

The stranger's voice was hoarse, his skin was blue, and he unconsciously showed a trace of pride.

"I've been the Pharaoh of Egypt, the monarch of the Persian Empire... But I haven't tried. What's it like to be president?"

The frightened President tried to make a sound, but found his mouth closed tightly.

"The young lieutenant general is very strange. I haven't heard his name, and there shouldn't be this man in history."

The stranger talked to himself, pulled out his chair and took the cigar in the president's hand.

"Hoo! I like the smell of tobacco, too. Howard stark, he's a celebrity and deserves attention. And Superman... I have to be careful."

"I've been observing this timeline for a while. It's different from the world I've conquered. It's a good thing and interests me more."

"It's not easy to avoid the supreme mage. After hiding for so long, I found a chance while Gu Yi played with domam."

“……”

The stranger talked to himself, saying something the president couldn't understand.

When the cigar reached a third, a cry came from outside the study.

"Harry, honey, the bath water is ready."

The president's wife knocked at the door.

"OK, I'll be right out."

The stranger poked his throat and the voice was the same as the president.

"Interesting life is about to begin."

He stood up, took a potion from his belt and put it into his neck.

Nano insects invisible to the naked eye are injected into the body. In just a few seconds, they transform the appearance into the appearance of the president.

The latter sat in his chair, motionless, but his eyes were full of fear.

The president looked in the mirror and saw the stranger gradually become himself.
