Chapter 78 To Afghanistan
Pepper was already used to Tony's way of thinking, so she continued to ask about other things: "Okay, MIT's graduation speech..."
After putting down the engine parts in his hands, Tony walked directly towards the coffee machine in the laboratory, while answering Pepper's question: "It was June, please don't rush me with things so far away."
"They pressed me, so I agreed for you first!" Xiaojiao explained seriously.
"Help me resist, don't come to me!"
For Tony, as long as it takes more than three days, it will be considered a long time ago, so he now has no interest in the graduation ceremony speech in June.
"You need to sign here before you get on the plane."
After saying that, Pepper opened the document in his hand and handed the signature pen to Tony.
"Why are you rushing me away? Do you have other plans?"
Tony did not take the signature pen handed over by Pepper, but asked seriously.
"I really have it!"
After hearing Pepper's answer, Tony was a little unhappy and said arrogantly: "I don't like you like this!"
"Always allow me to make arrangements for my birthday!"
Regarding Tony's complaints, Pepper could only choose to tell the truth.
"Is it your birthday?" Tony was stunned for a moment.
"Yes!"
I don't know why, but Tony seemed a little sluggish at this time, and his brain's reaction also became much slower: "I understand, is your birthday today?"
"Yeah, how strange, it's the same day as last year!" Pepper followed Tony's answer.
"Send you a gift for me."
Although Tony is unlikely to buy gifts himself, he is still very generous when it comes to giving gifts.
"I already bought it!"
"How's it going?" Tony continued to ask. At this time, he was already running out of words.
"Good gift!"
"is it?"
"Very tasteful, thank you Mr. Stark!"
As Tony's personal assistant, Pepper knew very well that if she didn't take the initiative to stop this topic, Tony would probably continue it.
"You're welcome, Miss Potts!"
After finishing the coffee in his hand, Tony handed the coffee cup to Pepper: "Let's go!"
Tony finally decided to set off, although it was already an hour and a half later than scheduled.
In order to rush for time, or to be precise, to make the way to the airport less boring, Tony played a little racing game with his bodyguard Happy.
Tony drove the latest Audi R8 to the front, while Happy drove a Rolls-Royce and chased after him.
In the end, Tony arrived at the airport first and won the game with a slight advantage.
"You're great, I thought I dumped you!"
When Happy got out of the Rolls-Royce, Tony couldn't help but praise him.
"You did dump me. I took a shortcut from Mulholland!" In this regard, Happy also directly told Tony the reason.
"what's wrong with you?"
When Tony came to the stairs of the plane gate, Colonel Rhodes asked dissatisfiedly.
"What's wrong?" Tony replied with a confused look on his face.
"It's been three hours!" At this point, Colonel Rhodes' tone became much more serious.
Colonel Rhodes waited here for three full hours to wait for Tony.
“Vanity Fair Magazine Interview, Didn’t Get Away!”
Tony didn't take Colonel Rhodes' complaints to heart and casually gave an excuse.
"So you just let me wait here for 3 hours!"
Colonel Rhodes was obviously very dissatisfied with Tony's answer.
"I'm waiting for you now, let's go!"
After passing by Colonel Rhodes, Tony said indifferently, and then said to the staff inside the plane: "Retract the landing gear and play some rock music."
After hearing Tony's words, although Colonel Rhodes was still unhappy, he could only choose to accept it and silently entered the cabin.
"What are you looking at with a sullen face?"
After the plane took off, Colonel Rhodes expressed his dissatisfaction through actions, silently reading the newspaper in his hand without saying a word, not even looking up at Tony.
"nothing!"
Colonel Rhodes answered Tony's question very perfunctorily.
"Forget it, calm down and don't be angry!"
After realizing that Colonel Rhodes was really angry, Tony began to enlighten Colonel Rhodes.
"I'm telling you I'm not angry, I don't care anymore, okay?"
Colonel Rhodes was able to become good friends with Tony because, in addition to their work interactions, more importantly, they both had arrogant personalities.
Yes, although Colonel Rhodes is a colonel in the U.S. Army, he still has a proud heart.
This may be why he became good friends with Tony, a super rich man and playboy.
"I'm very sorry!"
Tony may not care about what most people think, but for the friends he recognizes, he will care about their feelings, although what he expresses may be a little different from what people imagine.
But this is the tenderness that belongs to Tony Stark.
"No need to apologize, stay out of sight!" Because he knew Tony, Colonel Rhodes knew very well that what Tony could say was actually the limit of what he could express.
"I told him I was sorry, but he..."
When the beautiful lady on the plane came to Tony with a hot towel, Tony's attention immediately focused on this beautiful stewardess.
"I don't care anymore. You don't even respect yourself, let alone me!"
Although Colonel Rhodes said that Tony did not need to apologize, in fact, he still cared about this matter.
"Of course I respect you!"
"I'm your nanny. If you want to change a diaper...thank you!" After taking the hot towel from the beautiful stewardess, Colonel Rhodes continued: "Just tell me and I can bring you a diaper." Bottle, okay?”
"Can you help warm up the sake? Let me know when you're done!"
Tony's mind is always jumping around, so most people have no way of guessing what he is thinking, and neither can Colonel Rhodes.
"I didn't say...we can't drink, we're working!"
After hearing that Tony wanted to drink, Colonel Rhodes immediately became nervous.
“Eating sashimi must be paired with sake!”
"You are not a responsible person since you were born!"
Colonel Rhodes knew that he could not stop Tony, so he could only complain weakly.
"Drinking some wine before going to bed is good for your health. This is how you are responsible for yourself!"
Although Colonel Rhodes was complaining, Tony obviously had no intention of changing his mind.
"The sake is hot!"
While Tony was explaining his values to Colonel Rhodes, the beautiful stewardess came up with warmed sake.
"Okay, two drinks!" Tony said casually.
"I won't drink, I don't want wine!" Colonel Rhodes tried his best to refuse, but this refusal would obviously have no effect.
