Chapter 341: Dinner at the President's House
Due to the work of everyone, Luo Guang and Leon did not drink, and there was no next step after dinner.
Leon and Claire were not on the same route, so the task of sending Claire back fell on Luo Guang.
"Claire, I have a question. According to the customs here in the Lighthouse Country, if someone invites you to dinner, do you generally have to bring gifts?" The two were bored walking on the road, so Luo Guang took the initiative to find a topic.
Claire also knew more about this kind of thing because of her work at Terra Sefer, and replied: "Generally speaking, gifts are still brought, but it is not good to be too expensive or too cheap, so we need to control it here."
"Well, it seems that there are many tricks here." Luo Guang touched his chin and said.
In fact, he thought this matter was a bit troublesome.
Claire asked enthusiastically, "Whose home are you going to have dinner at? I'll give you some advice?"
"If the president invites you, it should be the White House, right? Didn't Leon tell you?"
"Huh? Did I hear that right?" Claire widened her eyes and said in surprise, "Leon didn't tell me such explosive news."
"This matter is not something that needs to be publicized, and Leon is now an agent, so he didn't say it." Luo Guang replied.
If it weren't for asking about the customs here, Luo Guang wouldn't have said this.
"In this case, I think you should choose a suitable gift based on your salary. Well... I recommend buying wine here. Even if the other party doesn't drink, you can collect it and entertain other guests."
Claire gave Luo Guang a more detailed answer, but because she doesn't drink, she can't recommend wine to Luo Guang.
If Luo Guang really wants to buy wine according to his current income, he may have to buy those bottles inlaid with diamonds, so he thought about it and decided to buy Maotai from the mysterious country.
The price of this kind of wine is also at a certain level, and the bottle is generally more beautiful. As for the taste, it depends on personal preference, so Luo Guang does not force this.
Although the Lighthouse Country is rare and can only rely on imports, Luo Guang thinks that the Donald family should have channels, so just ask them to help.
-----------------
The next morning, Luo Guang set out early to get the wine, and then called Lyon to confirm the situation on his side and asked him if he had bought a gift.
"Eh? Buy a gift?" Lyon, who had just woken up, was stunned.
Luo Guang replied: "I don't know too much, but I asked Claire, and she said she needed it."
Since Claire said that, Lyon felt that he had to be prepared and said: "I'm getting up now, help me!"
He couldn't choose the same gift as Luo Guang, so he wanted to drag Luo Guang to find a suitable gift.
To be honest, the president's family has everything, so Lyon finally chose to buy a bouquet of flowers.
The wine was for President Graham, and the flowers were for the two women in the president's family.
While accompanying Leon to listen to the lecture of the flower shop owner, Luo Guang's mobile phone in his trouser pocket vibrated.
He took out the phone, glanced at the caller ID, and said, "Ashley, what's wrong?"
"Have you arrived in Washington? Remember to have dinner tonight." Ashley returned home last night.
"Remember, remember, Leon and I are in Washington, and we are choosing gifts." Luo Guang replied.
His words made Ashley feel very satisfied, and she said happily: "That's good, remember to come a little earlier."
"Got it."
The two chatted for a few more words, Luo Guang hung up the phone, went back to the store and said to Leon who had already bought flowers: "Leon, what are you going to do next? Go back to work?"
"No, I'll go with you to buy a formal suit. Don't go to the appointment in a T-shirt and sweatpants!"
"You don't need it?"
"I have it." Leon has been following the president recently, so naturally he has a set of formal clothes that can be used in various formal occasions.
Luo Guang had sent all the clothes he had bought to Jill's dormitory, and replied, "I can go by myself. Don't you have to go to work today?"
"I just took a day off." All the suggestions that could be given on the Portland incident were given, and now they were just waiting for the follow-up development, so it was easy for Lyon to take a day off.
"Okay." Since Lyon was so enthusiastic and it would not affect his work, Luo Guang had no reason to refuse.
-----------------
Around five o'clock in the afternoon, Luo Guang came to the door of the White House wearing a dark blue suit worth Lyon's one-year salary.
Under Lyon's familiar guidance, he passed through many security checks and entered the White House.
President Graham was still discussing things with other officials in the presidential office, so the first lady and Ashley came out to greet Luo Guang and the others.
Ashley was wearing a light red knee-length tube dress today.
Her skin was very white, and she didn't need dark clothes to set it off. Instead, light colors could better set off her fair skin and beauty, and there would not be a strong sense of color contrast.
She didn't wear stockings, and directly exposed her smooth, white and graceful calves in front of everyone.
At the same time, she wore a light pink moon necklace to make her collarbone area not too monotonous.
"Good evening." After saying that, Ashley pinched the sides of her skirt, bowed slightly, and then introduced Luo Guang and Leon to her mother: "This is Luo Guang who saved me, and the one you met over there is Leon."
The first lady knew Lyon, but it would be inappropriate to introduce only Luo Guang, so Ashley introduced the two to her mother.
"A little care is not disrespectful." Luo Guang said while holding the packaged wine, and Leon immediately followed Luo Guang's movements.

The first lady lightly covered her mouth and said with a little surprise on her face: "Thank you. After coming to the White House for so long, this is the first time we have received a souvenir."
She took the flowers from Lyon, while Ashley took the wine from Luo Guang's hand.
The first lady slightly smelled the fragrance of the flowers and nodded secretly.
Not everyone likes the strong fragrance of flowers. It is indeed a better choice to choose flowers that exude a refreshing fragrance, and it can also be seen that the other party has carefully selected them.
Then she said jokingly: "It's a pity that the men in my family are not as careful as you, and they never gave me tweed after we got married."
This kind of family topic is not easy to pick up, but Leon and the President are familiar with each other, so they took the topic: "The President will be sad for the whole day when he hears what you said, madam."
It will be sad all day long, which is a hint to how much President Graham loves his family.
As expected of a female killer, these words were beautifully said. Luo Guang praised Leon's words in his heart.
"Mom, we are almost letting the guests in." Ashley saw that Luo Guang was a little uncomfortable with such a topic, so she immediately ended the topic.
"Ah, yes, you two, please come in." The first lady said, handed the flowers to the servant, and told her where to put them.
Luo Guang's wine was still held in Ashley's arms. This kind of thing had to wait for his father to decide whether to collect it or try the wine tonight.
Luo Guang followed Ashley and the others without whispering to Leon, and came to the restaurant a little restrained.
This is where the president and his family eat together every day. They did not choose a room such as a banquet hall. They also hoped that Luo Guang and Leon would not be too formal.
President Graham arrived belatedly and said, "Sorry, I have something to deal with at the moment, so I kept you waiting."
The first lady chatted happily with Lyon and said, "You have kept our two guests waiting for so long."
"It doesn't matter, national affairs are the most important." Luo Guang and Lyon replied in unison, not wanting to embarrass President Graham.
"Don't spoil my dad, otherwise he won't know how to repent and won't eat according to the rules every day. Sooner or later he will get sick."
Ashley understands her father's responsibilities, but she still wants to speak out and remind her father to take care of his health.
"It's dad's fault. I promise you will eat on time from now on. You will eat directly at the meeting. Just say it was my precious daughter who asked for it, okay?"
After being tempered by recent events, Ashley has changed a lot from her previous self, so she replied: "Okay, let's do this."
President Graham was stunned. If it were Ashley from before, she would definitely feel shy and embarrassed.
Seeing her father's rare deflated look, Ashley covered her mouth and smiled, handed the wine on the table to her father, and said, "This is a gift from Luo Guang, waiting for you to give orders."
"Oh? Show me." President Graham took the bottle, took a look at it, and said in surprise: "I seem to have drank this brand before when I visited. The taste is very different from what I usually drink. After getting used to it, It tastes rich and lingering. ”
"This wine is indeed the national wine over there, Mr. President." Luo Guang nodded and replied.
"Just call me Graham. Anyway, you all just call my daughter Ashley, right?"
President Graham did not want to turn this meal into such a formal meal. The time he usually spent eating and chatting with his family was a rare time for him to relax.
"Okay, Mr. Graham." Luo Guang was a social creature before time travel, and socializing was a common thing. He felt that the other party's politeness did not mean that he could really be polite, so he still added the honorific.
In this regard, President Graham did not say anything more, but he felt that Luo Guang might not be able to let go because he was nervous.
Since the guests brought wine, President Graham was not polite and asked for the wine glass he brought back from the visit, and decided to drink it with the guests tonight.
Everyone filled their glasses with wine, and President Graham raised his glass and said, "Thank you Luo Guang and Leon for saving my baby daughter."
After the president finished speaking, he drank it all in one gulp very boldly, and then the first lady thoughtfully filled her husband's glass with wine.
There was no one else around to serve the meal, there were only the five of them, so they had to do the work of pouring the wine themselves.
The first lady asked: "By the way, can you tell us how you rescued my daughter?"
Although she had read Leon's mission report, it was nothing compared to the description of the person involved, and the mission report also lacked the content of Luo Guang's operation. She mainly thought about whether she could learn more about the person her daughter liked from here. things.
When the four of them chatted before, Luo Guang seemed a bit quiet and did not take the initiative to chat like Leon.
Although the First Lady has never met Luo Guang, judging from the words of her daughter, the other person is not a person who is not good at words.
Leon put down his knife and fork and said, "Let Luo Guang say that. He was the first person to find Ashley."
Luo Guang also stopped what he was doing and said, "I found Ashley in a church."
"Church? Is it Catholic? How can the servants of the Lord do such a thing?" The first lady's words revealed her faith.
"No, it's a X-cult church." Luo Guang didn't know whether it was a Catholic church at first, but when they went there, it had become a church of the Church of Light.
Under Luo Guang's description, this mission became thrilling and exciting, which attracted the attention of Ashley's parents.
Lyon felt more and more confused as he listened. Was the situation so dangerous at that time? Not to mention himself for now, but most of the time, this mission was considered simple for Luo Guang, right? And he always felt that Luo Guang seemed to be deliberately blurring his own credit.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Hearing that the three people encountered a giant biochemical monster, the first lady exclaimed repeatedly.
Hearing that Ashley was successfully rescued at the last moment and did not drink the black water, the first lady patted her chest and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
As Luo Guang's story came to an end, everyone had almost finished their meal.
After a few rounds of wine, the atmosphere was set.
Graham was about to ask Luo Guang about some more personal matters when he heard his tipsy daughter suddenly say: "Luo Guang, I always feel that the way you talk tonight is different from usual? Do you dislike this kind of occasion so you do it on purpose?"
If it was Luo Guang before, he would definitely complain about his embarrassing appearance in the church and the attack and rescue. What she couldn't accept the most was why Luo Guang changed his and her experiences into that way, and many interesting experiences that happened to him were not mentioned.
That experience is her most precious memory!
Ashley would probably think that Luo Guang wanted to avoid Ashley's embarrassment in front of her parents, but after drinking a few glasses of wine, her mind was a little confused, and she was also under great pressure to chase a man with a girlfriend.
"Ashley, you are a little drunk." The first lady knew that Ashley was a little bit wrong when she heard it. How could she say such words directly? Normally, she should think that the other party was just not used to this kind of occasion.
"Eh? Of course not. After all, Mr. Graham is the president of the Lighthouse State, and he is intimidating without getting angry, so I don't know what attitude to use. I'm just a little reserved." Luo Guang was stunned and replied.
Although Luo Guang answered like this, President Graham didn't believe it.
During the Portland incident, Luo Guang didn't get nervous at all because of his identity when talking to him on the phone.
If so, what's the reason?
Graham quickly thought of a possibility. Could it be that Luo Guang really did it on purpose and didn't want to show too good in front of himself and his wife?
If this is really the case, does Luo Guang not like his daughter? No good feelings?
Although Ashley's secret love for Luo Guang could not be hidden from her own father, she did not tell her father that Luo Guang already had a girlfriend.
Thinking of this, President Graham took advantage of his daughter's lack of response and said, "Sorry, Luo Guang, come to the balcony with me. I have something to ask you. Wife, please take care of Ashley."
For the happiness of his daughter, he, as a father, must ask Luo Guang clearly what he thinks.
If the two of them really have no chance, then it is better to suffer a short pain than a long pain. He can't let his daughter get deeper and deeper.
"What do you want to say here!" Ashley said coquettishly: "Dad, I won't let you bully him."
Although she was a little angry and drunk, she still spoke for Luo Guang.
"Okay, drink some water first and calm down. I told you that this wine has a high alcohol content. I will change it to fruit wine for you." The first lady stopped Ashley unhappily and apologized to Leon and Luo Guang at the same time.
Leon probably guessed what the president was going to say to Luo Guang, and looked at Luo Guang with a look of "May you be blessed".
However, he actually had a thought in his heart that everything will go round and round. After all, Luo Guang often teased him with Ada's affairs, and this time the other party also had a love disaster.
As a good friend, of course he had to gloat over the misfortune, but the current occasion was not suitable for expression.
"Do you smoke?" President Graham took out a cigar and asked.
"Sorry, I don't smoke." Luo Guang shook his head.
President Graham put away the cigar box, looked at Luo Guang seriously, and said, "Luo Guang, I'll be frank with you. What do you think of Ashley?"
