732 The First Lady's Invitation

Two days passed in a flash, and the doctor came to change the medicine again. Owen's body is now in perfect condition, and the wound recovered very quickly. In only two days, the wound was basically no longer a serious problem.

There is still no news from President Wolfsky, and Irving has not called to ask. I think he will be very busy in the past two days.

Turn on the TV, and all kinds of news are flooding the screen.

In the past two days, the hot spot on major TV stations in Russia and abroad has always been the Beslan incident, but starting from today it is different. The news that the presidential plane was shot down finally came out, and the media around the world went crazy.

This is a terrorist attack on the Russian president's special plane. It is almost the same as the terrorist attack on the White House last year. The core areas of the two most powerful countries in the world were attacked by terrorists one after another. Has terrorism become rampant to this extent?



Early in the morning, when Owen woke up, Monica was no longer on the bed. The wound on his shoulder had scabbed over. A few days ago, his shoulder still hurt when he moved it, but today he can hardly feel it anymore.

Owen stretched and went downstairs. There was a sound of clinking cups and plates downstairs. It must be Monica preparing breakfast. He lazily went to the bathroom to wash up, took a quick shower, and then went downstairs. Sure enough, Monica

Busy in the kitchen.

"Morning, my dear, how did you sleep last night?"

Owen hugged Monica from behind, sniffing the fragrance of her hair, and Monica obediently raised her head and gave her a sweet kiss.

"It smells so good..."

Owen flattered her shamelessly, and then touched Monica's obviously bulging belly.

"how is he?"

"Very dishonest, often kicking me..."

Monica's face showed the brilliance of motherhood, looking particularly holy in the morning light.

"Okay, breakfast will be ready soon, you go and put it on the plate."

Monica sent Owen away, and Owen laughed, picked up a piece of tomato and stuffed it into his mouth, and then walked back to the living room.

At the window of the living room, Owen opened the corner of the gauze curtain and took a look. A guy in the car not far away was drinking coffee. When he saw Owen behind the window, he raised his glass.

Owen ignored him and lowered the gauze curtain.

The guy outside is an agent of the FSB, and they are not sneaky. They just guard Owen and the others openly and openly. It may be for protection, but it definitely also means surveillance.

But Owen didn't care about this, and they didn't plan to do anything. As Monica's belly grew, Owen actually started to think about returning to China.

The First Lady actually had several phone calls with Monica, and their personal relationship is now very good. She once suggested that Monica give birth in Russia, and she could help recommend the best hospital.

However, Irving decided to return to the United States to give birth at the Mayo Medical Center, where the technology and services are the best in the world. Giving birth is a very dangerous thing for a woman, and Irving didn't want anything to happen to Monica.

During breakfast time, Owen enjoyed the loving breakfast made by Monica while casually changing the TV channels. Fortunately, both of them could understand Russian, so it didn't affect anything.

But sometimes watching the news is really irritating. The media is always the group with the lowest moral bottom line.

The Russian domestic media is quite normal. They are basically one-sided in condemning terrorism, Chechnya, and the ugly acts of terrorists led by Basayev. But the foreign media is different, especially those Western media, which have double standards.

sharp.

In the eyes of those Western media, the terrorist attack on the White House in the United States was a naked provocation by terrorists and a trampling and destruction of the world order. However, the Chechens did not hesitate to target children to create the Beslan incident, and then attacked the Russian presidential plane, but all of them were targeted by Russia.

The price of hindering Chechnya's progress toward liberal democracy.

And this kind of rhetoric is not just one or two, but most of them. Almost all U.S. allies have the same tone. This makes Owen once again see the ugliness and dirtiness of politics.

He has always felt that it is okay to take sides and to be hostile, but there should be no more divisions in the face of terrorism. Terrorism has become a global problem so far, and various terrorist organizations often collude with each other.

Unity against terrorism should be the most correct approach.

It's a pity that those countries don't think so. Looking at the confusing remarks in the news, Irving, a pure American, feels unfair to Russia.

Just as she was about to turn off the TV, Monica's cell phone rang suddenly. It was the First Lady.

Monica got through, and the first lady said: "Hi Monica, I hope I didn't disturb your rest."

"Of course not. In fact, we were having breakfast."

"Oh, this is a good habit. Wofsky never eats breakfast..."

"It's like this. I'm calling you this time to invite you and Irving to the Kremlin as guests and have dinner together in the name of our couple. You know, we always want to express our gratitude to you in person.

It's just that Wofsky has been too busy these two days..."

"Dinner? Oh, of course, we'd love to, but we don't have to say thank you or anything like that. You really don't have to be so polite."

"Okay, it's settled. The time is set for the night after tomorrow. Someone will pick you up then. Oh, by the way, don't be too formal. It's just an ordinary family dinner. Let's chat together, just like we are on the plane.

Like that..."

After hanging up the phone, Monica looked at Owen with a smile. Owen shrugged and looked very embarrassed: "Oh my God, I will go to the Kremlin to have dinner with the president and his family. What gift do you think I should prepare?"

?"

Monica giggled happily, but Owen felt a little worried. The gift was just a small thing, the key was going to the Kremlin.

His previous identity was too sensitive, and now he openly enters the Kremlin, which will definitely attract the attention of various countries. In fact, thinking about it, Irving feels that even if he did not have this Kremlin dinner, his name may have appeared.

It is on the list of intelligence agencies of various countries.



Two days have passed in the blink of an eye, and tonight is the day when the Irvings will attend the presidential family dinner.

In the afternoon, the two of them were going to go out for a walk. They always bring some gifts when they visit for the first time, but Irving also made up his mind that the gifts don't need to be too expensive. The other party is the president. He has never seen anything good, as long as he can express his feelings.

.

Just when the two of them were about to go out, Irving's phone suddenly rang. After picking it up, I realized it was me, Ulyanov.

"Are you free now? I'm in the presidential suite No. 1 of the Platinum Hotel. Can we meet..."

Ulyanov came to Moscow, but Owen immediately remembered that Ulyanov had said before that the president asked him to come to Moscow for an interview. It was probably because of this.

After enough time, Owen and I took a taxi to the address Ulyanov mentioned.

When he opened the door, Ulyanov laughed and gave him a hug.

"It seems that you and the president have a good discussion..."

If you were not sure why Uri called them here before, you can tell by looking at his expression now that there is no need to guess.

"Haha, is it so obvious?"
