An ancient looking small courtyard with simple and unadorned street lamps hung inside. A dark path led straight to a pavilion.
The pavilion was located in the center of the lotus pond. This season, the lotus flowers had yet to bloom, leaving only a clear lake.
Bamboo curtains hung around the pavilion, and a bright light could faintly be seen from inside.
"Mr. Wayne, this way please!" A man in a suit respectfully bowed and led Edwards forward.
Edwards's thin lips curled up. Looking at his surroundings, he imagined that the friend who was as warm as jade would be meeting him again, and it would be another time.
After passing through the beautiful scenery of the garden, he finally stepped into the corridor that led to the pavilion by himself. He was almost to the door when the curtain was pushed aside by a pair of men's hands. A handsome, picturesque face, with a gentle smile, looked at him.
"If I didn't understand you, I would have definitely felt that you were too poetic. But, luckily, I knew that you were a quiet person." Edwards smiled faintly and directly entered the pavilion. Under the bright light, the Mr. Vice-President that was dressed in casual attire had a face full of smiles.
Joseph was sizing up Edwards, and of course, Edwards also wanted to get to know his friends that he had not seen for a while. Time and years had tempered their faces and demeanor, and they no longer had that youthful and immature look back then, but they had become more mature and steady, and were filled with the charm of a man's self -confidence.
"Haven't you seen enough of me on TV?" Joseph smirked.
"You are not the real one on TV." Edwards unceremoniously insulted him.
"There's no other way. If I don't pretend to be profound and let others see through my thoughts, that would be scary." Joseph said while taking a cup, he poured a cup of tea that he had brewed and gave it to Edwards: "You haven't changed, you're still looking full of spirit."
"Who said that? "I've already become so old that I can't even recognize myself anymore. Back then, the person I hated the most was that old fox in the mall. But now, I've forced myself to that state step by step." Edwards laughed at himself.
"We're both the same. Back then, when my father was the President, I didn't like him either,and every day, I even went against him. But now, I want to become him." Joseph was laughing at himself.
"Don't worry about it too much, you always think that your eyes are the best. You want to look down on everyone, including those strong people, after entering society, then you realize that you also want to become a strong person. The strong have no enemies, you can protect those that are important to you, and you can decide anything you want." Edwards carried the cup of tea and drank it with a smile.
Joseph nodded in agreement.
"You can't blame me for not being there when you were married last time, right?" Joseph could not help but ask.
"You even didn't show up, but I've accepted your luxury gift. Since you're giving me such a expensive gift, I won't mind. Worst case scenario, I won't go when you get married!" Edwards joked.
