Chapter 20

  The Born President

  Tai is a very rare surname in the federation, Sheilor always felt that he seemed to have seen it on some kind of book, he thought for a moment, but he didn’t think it of, so he just threw it out of his mind, he looked at Charlie Tai’s slightly pale face and said seriously, “Since your body is not that good, why do you still stay up late every night? If you are in insomnia, then you shouldn’t even drink the coffee.”

  At this time, Charlie Tai’s body had already become back to normal basically, he didn’t want to have any contact with Sheilor at first. When he was ready to leave, then he heard a sincere words like this, that made him couldn’t help to stand stupefied for a moment.

  In the view of Charlie Tai, writing something on the white paper with Sheilor every night, eating some deep-fried dough pies and drinking some soybean milk, all these were just the not eye-catching episode in his life. Although he still didn’t have the adult ceremony yet, he still allowed himself to be childish once in a while now, but ultimately these were the childish things-- He ordered the steward Ken who had the only permission to enter the H1 area, prohibited to enter when he was still inside. Just didn’t want to let those loyal and devoted, regarded himself as the emperor subordinates and retainers, found out that he originally also had the mischievous side.

  Just because of this reason, even if he went back to the villa much later than usual, steward Ken also would just stay and wait in the corridor honestly, and not dared to come in. After all that steward Ken would also never think of, his master would be in a coma, and even he also wouldn’t know that the body of Charlie Tai beside the blood sugar was too low, still had a kind of very troublesome disease.

  Charlie Tai knew that he had already owned Sheilor a favor, and he could tell the real sincerity in the eyes of the other party very easily, so he smiled and sat on the sofa, no longer wanted to leave in a hurry. And Sheilor also very sensitively found out that the calm eyes of this emaciated young man seemed to become a bit warmer. But this kind of warm was still like looking down from a height and self-control that kind, it had a kind of keeping people at arm’s length feeling, Sheilor was not that used to it. He frowned his eyebrows and said, “Since you don’t want to go to the hospital, do you want me to send you home?’

  At this time Sheilor had already guessed that the other party must be the childe of some sort of rich family, after all not all the people could take the Caspian roe cake as the ordinary snack to eat. And it’s been these many days, Sheilor found out that besides himself and this sitting on the opposite side called Charlie Tai guy, no third person had the permission to enter the H1 area. Sheilor could analyze, he could enter into here, it must be some problems with the disguise chip which his boss left to him, then what about the other party?

  Charlie Tai didn’t answer his question right away, but was quite interested to look at him, seemed to want to find out what kind of person Sheilor exactly was.

  The cheap snack was not a problem, but he just had a few of his cakes, drank a cup of coffee, then decided to make some compensations, and kept the insistence tirelessly for these many days, this would be not that easy. Moreover, the worry shown by the other party earlier when he saw that he passed out was even not false. He grew up in the education of the books about the political history and conspiracy those kinds, it’s really hard to imagine, there would be really some people like Sheilor willing to help other people but not ask for anything in return, completely from the heart. Even there would be this kind of people, it also shouldn’t be a not up to twenty years old young man.

  This kind of calm and quiet eyes, let Sheilor to feel the great pressure, he felt that it’s weird in his heart, this guy looked so poor and harmless when his closed his eyes, but he would be overbearing when he opened his eyes, this was really weird.

  Since the body of the other party didn’t have any problems, he also wouldn’t be so nervous like just now. The exhaustion of one night not sleeping, the standing hard under the Plum Garden all flooded into his body, he couldn’t help to exhale a breath lightly. Sat slumped in the chair, narrowed his eyes to look at the other party, “If you don’t want to speak, then don’t say anything, rest for a while and then go back.” he said.

  After a very long time, Charlie Tai seemed to just have his reaction back, he said gently with a very slow speed, “Thank you, I think that I can leave now.”

  Sheilor that like knives eyebrows had a shock slightly. He then found out that the voice of the other party was a little bit different from the voice in the speaker, not the difference in the tone, but the change of this kind of speed, let this emaciated young man had a few majesty feeling unexpectedly. Sheilor doubted that whether he had some illusions, he opened his eyes in doubt, looked at him and said, “you are that virgin boy?”

  Charlie Tai had his eyes narrowed a bit, didn’t show the anger in his heart out, said coldly, “you have any question, premature ejaculation boy?”

  Sheilor was embarrassed very much, but he had the “Ha ha” laughter and patted on his shoulder, “not bad. It’s you this virulent guy. Saw you talk like a president making a war speech, it’s really somewhat not used to it.”

  The corner of Charlie Tai’s eye left no trace to sweep on his own shoulder, he was not adapt to that someone showed the intimate way like this to him, especially patted on his body carelessly like this. From many years ago, no one dared to do like this anymore. The only one dared to do so in those years, Chavis Chad, ever since he knew his identity, also turned into a quail in front of him.

  Sheilor didn’t pay attention to the emotion on Charlie Tai’s face, or he didn’t even feel like to notice it at all, he heaved a sigh and said, “I have my own reason to come to here every night, what about you? Could it be said that you are really in insomnia and bored?”

  “My insomnia is because of the pressure.” Charlie Tai looked at Sheilor calmly, thought of that this in front of him boy even would tell him the story about what he did in the bed, suddenly surged a kind of extremely absurd feeling in his heart. He hesitated for a moment and then said with a smile, “you should have already guessed, my family is very rich, but my father had the bad luck, he died too early. I was educated to take over the family business as a child, I need to undertake those very heavy responsibilities, this kind of pressure really make me somewhat couldn’t be peaceful. Although I believe my ability, but I always feel that I am just only eighteen years old, then I have to think about the things of eighty years old, it’s really not too much fun.”

  After he said these words, Charlie Tai frowned his eyebrows slightly, he didn’t understand why he would seem to trust the other party very much subconsciously, looked at Sheilor that honest face, then he would tell those words which he always hid in the abyss of his mind.

  Sheilor didn’t have any shocked expression, he just shrugged his shoulders. He had already guessed the family of the other party would be uncommon long ago, of course he wouldn’t be surprised. Just right at this moment, he would never think of the family property, which Charlie Tai said that he would inherit, would be so huge to extremely horrible.

  He just said soothingly, “who doesn’t have any pressure while he is alive? I still felt that you are younger than me just now, now I know that you are just only eighteen years old, why do you need to live so hard? Pressure this thing, just keep it in your heart, what you supposed to live in the ordinary days, then you just live it that way.”

  This was what Sheilor sighed about what happened to him, he was just an ordinary federal young man who wanted to have the normal life, but because he knew uncle, resulted in that the track of life had been twisted forcibly to the way what he could never dare to imagine. The only disguise chip of the federation was installed in his nape, if someone found this secret, he surely would know what “fate worse than death” meant. Actually the pressure he was assuming also was very great, but he just could face all of these tenaciously and optimistically, and also opened the other party li
ke this.

  Charlie Tai distracted a moment, of course he wouldn’t let himself to become relaxed just because of a few words by the other party, and the strong self-discipline also let him didn’t want to be relaxed at all. He looked at Sheilor, said with a smile, “some pressures you have to assume, can’t escape, or even enlarge it forcibly, then this will urge us to make progress.”

  Sheilor shook his head, thought that this named Tai boy was the same as Charming, seemed that all had the self-abuse potential, he looked at him and said very seriously, “I always feel that this is wrong, no matter how great your future will be, it is also not worth to sacrifice your own health, maybe you even want to be the president?”

  Charlie Tai stared blankly for a moment, stared at him with a kind of pondering eyes, and then laughed up loudly, the laughter turned into the cough in the end, he kept coughing ceaselessly.

  “Crazy guy.” Sheilor thought in his mind like this, had the wry smile on his face, told his phone number once, told him, “known for this many days, you have eaten me so many things, we also could be counted as friends, if you have any problems in the future, just give me a call.”

  Charlie stopped his laughter, quietly looked at the back figure of Sheilor who was tidied up the mess by the door of the room, he thought in his heart that probably he would never make this call.

  “I have already met with senator Palmer, didn’t let the appreciation you have to him down, he and his that shabby aids and staff team really come up with a set of political program and reform plan, it’s very attractive and very practical.”

  On the light screen in the villa, a woman showed up, this woman was about forty years old, she still kept her charm from the back to see, she was dressed in the home dress to put the sheets under the sun in the balcony at this time. But the doing the very usual housework woman, was talking about the meeting she had with the political new star of the federation, the senator Palmer from the East Forest Region, like talking about the daily life of her family.

  Charlie Tai looked at his mother on the light screen, didn’t open his mouth to ask anything, because he knew that since his mother contacted him with the ultra secret line, it’s for sure that she was not telling him about the result of the negotiation, but had the more important things to tell him,

  “Palmer is a middle-aged man with too much idealism.” that woman was shaking the sheets, continued to say, “but it’s already a good choice, just he always has some distrust and fear to our this family, I have already made a great concession, then gain his trust.”

  “I made a decision to promote the Management Committee to amend the charter, to allow the president to be re-elected twice in the special period.” the mistress of the Tai family turned her body around, spoke to the light screen in a soft voice, “if Palmer didn’t make any mistake, I hope that he could stay in that palace to finish fifteen years.”

  The facial expression of Charlie Tai finally had some change, he frowned and said, “this is a big movement, even if our family could win the support of those other families, it’s also unlikely that we could control the senators of the Management Committee, and what’s more, the general public have the congenital conflict emotion to this kind of things.”

  “Within fifteen years, the empire would start the war again inevitably.” the mistress of the Tai family said quietly, “a nation depends on conquering the foreign countries to resolve the bloody contradiction of domestic classes, couldn’t leave without war this stuff. As long as the war started, our Palmer, of course would have enough reason to become the first president with three terms.”

  Charlie Tai was silent, he respected the senator Palmer very much, so he disliked his mother “our Palmer” this kind of wording very much.

  “Fifteen years later, you will be thirty three years old.” the woman in the light screen said quietly, “should let the federation to have the youngest president in history.”

  Charlie closed his eyes, said with the slightly sarcastic tone, “Palmer could be re-elected for three terms, I am also much younger, of course I can be re-elected for many more times.”
