Chapter 515: Lost culture it is!

"Your brother is not a current activist and he has no past as one. I dont even think that he has ever attended any kind of rally standing against or for something. Such a position will have other active human rights activists questioning his eligibility. They will want to see pictures of him at past rallies or old social media posts where he shared an opinion supporting or condemning any type of cause. Also remember that causes are specific so it has to be the right one." Muyang gave her his opinion.

"Not just that," Ringo added, "When he meets the press he will be faced with questions like there is a war in kingdom A, children and women have been killed what’s your stand as the Minister for human rights. Whatever side he picks he will be crucified. And if the two fighting sides have a cordial relationship with our empire he will have to be neutral which will result in him being called a coward. Perhaps he will be better off taking the position of Minister for the animal rights, they have activists too though, the ones who say we should not eat meat. This looks simple but it’s not."

Cherry nodded along as she listened to Ringo, "I have seen such scenarios, as a photojournalist I have covered a few wars in my career. Often times the first thing most media’s do is look for politicians, seeking their opinions and calling on them to help one side or condemn the other. As a human rights Minister your brother would be dragged into that kind of situation no matter how much he tries to avoid it. And you have to remember that if he decides to share his opinion he has to watch his words or risk offending the emperor. If you love your brother don’t do this to him."

Chi Lian sighed and shook her head. "So, lost culture it will be. I will have to speak to my brother and see where his head is at though. Most importantly I was asked for my opinion and at the end of the day the emperor will personally decide."

"Maybe a certain lost empress’s crown will convince him." Ringo suggested. "You have weapons for this battle, use them carefully. If the emperor thinks that you are trying to hold him hostage he will simply use his authority to take those things from you. If things get too complicated your brother can just take on the silly Minister for happiness position. It might be better to be low key than hanging his head out high for everyone to take shots at."

"Okay, thank you for your kind advise brother-in-law," She held back a yawn and tightened the warm bath robe around her body. For a few minutes she had been fighting the urge to sleep but she could feel it in her bones that she was losing the battle.

"Are you sleepy?" Muyang asked her.

She nodded and leaned her head on his shoulder. "I am tired now." she told him.

"Come on." he carried her up, "Let’s get you to bed,"

Suddenly it was just Ringo and Cherry left behind and the environment quickly turned awkward. Unable to stand it, Cherry stood up.

"I should go to bed too." she said.

"Me too." Ringo got up. They walked slowly side by side, not saying a word to each other. "Do you want to be carried up as well?" he suddenly asked her.

"Haha, very funny." she replied.

He shrugged and responded, "I am strong, I can easily carry you."

Cherry scoffed on the inside, how would she face him tomorrow if she allowed herself to be carried by him. She wanted to talk more about something that she had noticed about his body. "You have a tattoo on your bicep."

"Yes." he shook his head.

"What is it?" she asked curiously.

"The head of a wolf." he answered.

"How long have you had it?" she asked him.

"Fifteen years, I considered getting something bigger but my grandmother would probably rip it off with plies. So, I got the one she would hardly notice and even if she did, it’s not big enough to cause her any alarm."

They reached the bedroom and Cherry yawned, she was actually sleepy which she did not except. Thirty minutes later, both of them were in bed after quick showers and Cherry drying her hair.

For both of them however, tonight was quite unusual. For one, the wall of pillows which separated them was gone. Neither one of them bothered to put it up tonight.

"Should we..." Cherry wanted to ask if they should put it up.

"Sleep." Ringo told her. "I am not going to devour you if that’s what you are thinking. I should be the one to worry more because I am your type, a handsome heroic man."

She had been facing the opposite way but when he said that, she turned her head around and laughed softly. "Quit deceiving yourself, I will never fall for a man like you."

"Define a man like me." he told her.

"Arrogant, arrogant, arrogant." she said the same word three times and counted it off her fingers.

"That’s one word." he informed her.

"Exactly how much I want to prove my point, I can never fall for an arrogant man."

Ringo dragged his body closer to her suddenly and his face ended up in her breathing space. He was suddenly so close to her, closer than he had ever been to her. She could even smell the mint toothpaste he had used to brush his teeth. His nose was almost touching hers, his lips almost touching hers and that arrogant smirk which she couldn’t stand was on his face.

Cherry blinked five times and pulled away from him slightly. "What are you doing?" she asked him. He was making her nervous, mostly because he was right, he was just her type, handsome, masculine and heroic.

"I am trying to see if I can seduce you." he admitted.

Cherry’s eyes widened and she pulled the covers up, holding them over the bottom half of her face, leaving only her eyes exposed. "I am warning you, don’t try anything."

Ringo chuckled and his head fell back, "Coward." he said. "Where is all your bravado?"

She shook her head and said, "I am not that brave." Her words sounded more like mumbles beneath the covers.

Ringo surprised her further by leaning in and suddenly kissing her on the forehead. "Goodnight." He faced the opposite way while laughing.

In Muyang and Chi Lian’s bedroom, they were in bed and she was laying on his chest. Both of them had their eyes closed, almost asleep when in a sleepy voice, she said, "Your brother and his wife are weird."

"Hmm," he replied.
