Chapter 2733: 2707: Betraying Feelings
On the night before Tommy’s wedding, Gao Yang called Nate from thousands of miles away and tried to persuade him into a scheme.
Actually, Gao Yang really wanted to discuss these things with Nate after Tommy’s wedding, but Nate was too stingy, so Gao Yang had to explain it over the phone.
After hanging up, Gao Yang went outside, shoved the satellite phone into Joseph’s hand, and shouted, “Guys, let’s go drink to our hearts’ content!”
Although they said to drink to their hearts’ content, they definitely couldn’t drink until they were plastered because they still had to get married the next day. If everyone couldn’t even crawl up, how could the wedding take place?
It was the same familiar place, same familiar feeling, the venue and even the process of Tommy and Frey’s weddings were almost the same, only the people getting married had changed.
The wedding took place at 10 in the morning in the church, and it was extremely rare for all of Satan’s people to be wearing formal attire. As they began to follow Tommy and Vita into the church, suddenly someone shouted from behind, “Wait for me! Wait!”
Gao Yang turned around and saw it was Sirte.
Sirte was wearing a suit, hurriedly trying to put on a tie while crossing the busy street, running directly towards Gao Yang and the others standing at the church door.
“Can Opener! How come you’re here!”
Gao Yang was extremely surprised, while Sirte was panting as he said, “You called Nate yesterday.”
“Yes, I did.”
“You said Tommy is getting married, right here, so I came. As soon as you hung up, I set off. Fortunately, I managed to buy a ticket, and it took eight hours from Berlin to here. After landing, I took a taxi straight here. Phew, luckily I made it in time.”
“I mean, why did you come?”
Gao Yang was puzzled, and Sirte was also puzzled. He looked at Gao Yang and said, “Of course, to attend Tommy’s wedding. What did you think? Don’t forget, buddy, Tommy saved my life in the Amazon Rainforest. Of course, I’d attend his wedding.”
After saying that, Sirte wiped his sweat, panting as he said, “Actually, I also wanted to convince Tommy not to get married. You see, my wife ran off with my money; mercenaries really shouldn’t get married. It’s so much better being free and unfettered alone. I didn’t know Tommy was getting married, or I would’ve had a talk with him. Can I still persuade him now?”
“No, you can’t!”
“Damn it, do you want a beating?”
“You better shut up, Can Opener, otherwise, did you see? Toad is already clenching his fists.”
Sirte exhaled and said, “Forget it then. Since I can’t oppose it, I’ll just bless him.”
At that moment, Tommy, who had already entered the church with the bride on his arm, came back out and exclaimed, “I thought I was hearing wrong; it’s really you, Can Opener.”
Sirte breathed a sigh of relief, stepped forward and hugged Tommy, then solemnly said, “Congratulations, my brother. I specifically came to attend your wedding, despite marriage … Anyway, blessings to you, my brother.”
“Thank you, and I’m sorry I didn’t inform you. I thought you wouldn’t be able to come.”
“Yeah, I was quite injured, but recovered quickly. I’m able to move now, so I came.”
Vita also stepped out and curiously said, “Tommy, this is…”
“Oh, a friend of mine, a really good one, so he specifically came from Germany to attend our wedding. You know the sort of friendship where you save me and I’ll save you. Sorry, my dear, I’ll be right there.”
Tommy and Vita went into the church again, and Sirte stood next to Gao Yang, touched his chest, and panted as he said, “Luckily, I made it. Well, although I came for Tommy’s wedding, Nate asked me to tell you something. He said…”
“Don’t say it! This is a church; Tommy is getting married. It’s inappropriate to talk about these things!”
“Come on, do you believe it?”
“I don’t believe but it’s still inappropriate. Let’s talk about it later.”
Gao Yang stared intently at the Priest, thinking that the church really wasn’t suitable for discussing things unrelated to the wedding. Although he didn’t believe, he still needed to respect the place.
After reciting a prayer, the Priest said to Tommy, “Mr. Toja Mikhailovich, do you accept Ms. Vita in front of you as your lawful wife?”
“I do.”
“Vita, do you accept Toja Mikhailovich as your lawful husband?”
“I do.”
The Priest said sternly, “Please exchange your wedding rings.”
The rings were placed on the Bible, two somewhat ordinary gold rings.
Don’t forget Gao Yang is now into the diamond mining business; he can pull out diamonds so big most people wouldn’t even dare to dream of them. But after Gao Yang learned about the essence of diamonds, and neither Tommy nor Vita wanted to wear a massive, eye-blinding diamond all day.
So Tommy and Vita chose two ordinary gold rings, abandoning the super large diamond rings Gao Yang had gifted, which were left in the chest.
Exchanging rings, Tommy then married the beautiful young widow Vita, and could lead his happy little life.
Both Tommy and Vita laughed happily as they walked out of the church; naturally, next was the wedding reception.
After leaving the church, Gao Yang whispered to Sirte: “Now you can tell me, what decision did Nate make?”
Sirte whispered: “The exact words?”
“If it’s unpleasant, don’t give me the exact words.”
“Let’s go with the exact words then. Nate said Ram, that bastard, offered a new perspective, and if that idiot and soft-hearted bastard sucker can do it, there’s no reason we Angels can’t; hence, we’re headed to Libya. He asked me to tell you he’s decided to go to Libya, and the specifics and profit-sharing need to be discussed with you in detail.”
Gao Yang’s lips trembled with anger as he raged: “He actually dared to call me a sucker? Did I not make enough holes in his leg? Hmm? Do you think so?”
Sirte chuckled and shrugged: “Whatever you say, if you really want him to kill you, let me tell you Ram, you made two holes in his leg, so it’s only fair he curses at you a bit. Besides, no one else in this world has managed to put holes in Nate’s legs. Actually, the thing that made Nate furious wasn’t the holes you made; he was mad because you deceived him. He’s never impulsively saved anyone before, yet he detoured to save you on a suicidal charge. You must understand, buddy, Nate has never been deceived so badly before; he never gave anyone the chance to deceive him before, and yet you deceived and took advantage of his feelings. He obviously finds it hard to let it go.”
Gao Yang turned pale and stammered: “F**k, can’t you not use such nauseating words like deceiving feelings? Nate, that damn bastard wouldn’t be, wouldn’t be…”
Gao Yang felt a shiver down his spine as Sirte paused, then exploded in anger: “What nonsense are you thinking? Our team leader is perfectly normal!”
Gao Yang also raged: “Then, stop using misleading words, you bastard! It’s so easy to get misunderstood, don’t you get it?”
Sirte shrugged: “Alright, sometimes my English word choice is inappropriate; let me rephrase. The principle of our Angels is having no friends, but Nate sees you as a friend, and you deceived him, so of course, he’s furious. You betrayed his pure combat friendship with you. Does that explanation suffice?”
Gao Yang exhaled deeply and said to Sirte: “Be careful with your words in the future, or Nate will eventually finish you off one day. Alright, I’ve forgiven Nate’s disrespectful remarks toward me; tell him from now on the matter is settled. If he dares to curse me as a sucker again, I’ll ignore all your crap! Bastard! All you Angels are more bastards than one another!”
Sirte disdainfully said: “That’s between you two; I can’t decide anything for him, but I can convey your message to him, verbatim or improved?”
“Verbatim!”
Still angry and resentful, Gao Yang said: “Also, start preparing now, how are you planning to prepare?”
Sirte shrugged: “First, recruitment, restoring a thirty-person formation. Too few people are inconvenient; we’ll discuss the rest later. We lack funds, but we can’t operate without money.”
Gao Yang impatiently raised his hand and said: “We’ll discuss this later; right now, Tommy’s wedding is underway. We’ll discuss details after the wedding, and I have one more important question.”
“Go ahead.”
Gao Yang hesitated but ultimately whispered: “Is your team leader really normal? Really?”
Sirte angrily replied: “Of course, our team leader is perfectly normal! He is very normal! Women like him; he has a…”
Sirte suddenly stopped speaking, and Gao Yang exhaled, sighing: “Then I’m relieved; you should be thankful for this. If your team leader weren’t normal, I wouldn’t do anything for you; too scary, yikes…”
Gao Yang couldn’t help but rub his arm, his skin crawling with goosebumps, mainly because Sirte’s choice of words was frightening, sparking fear and disgust deep in his heart.
Seeing Gao Yang rubbing his arm, Sirte disdainfully commented: “Really a sucker, huh, haha.”
Gao Yang was completely furious, saying: “Seems like you want to be taught a lesson, eh, Toad.”
Li Jinfang came over and asked: “What’s up?”
Gao Yang pointed at Sirte and said: “Educate this bastard on how to speak after the wedding; he’s really getting on my nerves.”
Li Jinfang grinned maliciously, clenching his fist. Sirte immediately changed his expression, nervously saying: “I’m a patient? Come on, my wounds haven’t healed yet! I just managed to get here after getting off the bed, what more do you want? Where’s humanity? Guys, I’ve been shot, I’m severely wounded!”
After hurriedly pleading, Sirte urgently said: “When are we going to Libya? The treasure is important, we lack startup funds, how long do we have to wait?”
Gao Yang grunted angrily: “Don’t try to change the subject; I’m not happy right now! If you want me to do something, you better have the attitude of someone asking for help. You want to go to Libya, well, hahaha, tell Nate I’ll say when I’m happy.”
Sirte sighed and said: “Alright, alright, I’ll definitely tell Nate.”
Gao Yang sighed and said: “Tell Nate not to always think about fighting personally, recruit people this time who can be used in major situations. I know Libya well, leading the Libyans requires grassroots commanders. Giving those useless people a General won’t help; prepare more lieutenants and captains, don’t waste time, and start finding suitable candidates now, understand?”
