Chapter 1635: World Saviour—Rex!
To show his respect and welcome, the high-ranking person had specially prepared local delicacies, such as roasted lamb and beef, for Si Siyan.
Si Yiyan was enjoying the hospitality of an important prince from the royal family. “Rex, I am very pleased to have you visit Saudi Arabia. It is our honor to have you here as our guest.”
Rex was Lucifer’s leader. His identity was shrouded in secrecy. He held very close ties with several countries in the Middle East and was also the most generous donor to countries mired in war. Some nations even hailed him as:
The Redeemer!
The Savior of the World!
His whereabouts were highly classified and under strict protection by all the countries in the Middle East.
Apart from a few important members of the royal family, no one else knew of his current visit to Saudi Arabia.
And the royal family had also displayed the same high regard for this personal visit to the nation.
Si Yiyan had changed into a traditional white Saudi Arabian robe, as well as a white headdress. “It is my honor to be welcomed by the prince.”
Saudi Arabia was a place sacred to Muslims and full of Islamic flavor. As a result, everything in this country was greatly influenced by religion.
Although Si Yiyan was not of the Islamic faith, he was willing to follow their customs out of respect.
“I hope that Rex will be satisfied with our reception.”
During dinner, the Saudi Arabian prince was very worried he would not be used to their local food. Country Z was still an enigma to Saudi Arabia, but its great food was well-known throughout the world.
Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia was a desert country, so its fare was simple. Food was usually roasted or grilled, and there were many restricted items due to their religion.
The prince was shocked when he noticed that Si Siyan did not reject the sweet dishes during dinner. “Rex, I heard you don’t really like to eat sweet foods. It appears that the rumors were unfounded.”
Rex was a valued guest in the Middle East and enjoyed the highest level of hospitality in every country there. Every nation was well aware of his dietary preferences.
Although the prince knew Rex didn’t like to eat sweet foods, Saudi Arabians loved their desserts and their sweet red tea. So, in his enthusiasm as a host, the prince had specially prepared all the foods that he himself loved to offer this highly-respected guest.
The prince felt very honored to see his specially-prepared foods being accepted.
“My wife likes to eat sweet things, especially red tea flavored with date honey.” Si Yiyan’s chilly countenance softened slightly as he thought of Wen Xinya.
Saudi Arabians loved sweet foods, especially red tea flavored with date honey. Imbibing a mouthful of red tea sweetened with date honey was their favorite, and was also Wen Xinya’s favorite way of enjoying the drink.
It was a sweet notion to be somewhere far away and eating something which his own beloved liked to eat.
The prince was shocked. “Rex, I didn’t know you are already married!”
This Rex was indeed a complete mystery. A life event as significant as marriage had occurred without any news. He would never have known if Rex hadn’t told him.
Of course, he was most shocked about the fact that the usually aloof Rex actually answered him and told him something personal. It was a truly unexpected gift.
Si Yiyan smiled but remained silent.
Although Wen Xinya was not yet married to him, he already viewed her as his wife!
The prince said enthusiastically, “Saudi Arabians believe that those who like to eat sweet things are kind and passionate folk and the sort of people who would make the greatest friends. I really hope Rex can bring your wife to visit Saudi Arabia someday.”
Although the prince was rather curious about Rex’s wife, he knew not to probe too much about her.
Rex’s identity was a closely-guarded secret among the countries in the Middle East.
His wife would naturally be afforded the same protection.
And the fact that no one knew Rex was married—it was clear just how confidential the identity of this lady was!
Marriage.
It was truly a beautiful misunderstanding!
Si Yiyan replied, “Perhaps when there is an opportunity. I believe that she will definitely love this country, which is so full of warmth and wonderful delicacies.”
Si Yiyan would not be stingy in his favor toward those who praised Wen Xinya and showed her goodwill.
The prince was completely shocked by Rex’s pleasant response. He instinctively knew that Rex held his wife in high regard, and so he took the opportunity to continue. “The royal family’s harvest of date honey this year is pretty good. We even produced a batch of premium Amber date honey. I believe your wife would love it. Rex, on behalf of the Saudi Arabian royal family, please help us offer your wife our most sincere friendship.”
Dates were Saudi Arabia’s local specialty and hailed as a national treasure. The date trees were family treasures passed down generation after generation. In the eyes of Saudi Arabians, the trees were even more valuable than oil.
To men, dates were a sacred gift as it could enhance their sexual process.
To women, dates were essential nourishment.
However, their production levels were too low.
Nevertheless, the royal family had hundreds of thousands of fields of date trees.
It was a blessing to anyone who received a gift of dates from the Saudi Arabian royal family.
Si Yiyan smiled. “Many thanks!”
The Envoy’s Mission had already begun. However, the mission’s destination was not Saudi Arabia, but a Middle East nation embroiled in an oil war. Si Yiyan had come to Saudi Arabia for the sole purpose of getting its dates.
He was well aware of the legendary benefits of dates.
Nourishment, invigoration!
It was a premium tonic to Xinya.
Before this, he had paid a huge price in exchange for 10 fields of the royal family’s date trees.
Those 10 fields were a national treasure to the royal family and the king was naturally quite against it. Only after Si Siyan exhibited utmost sincerity, and the fact that 10 fields were really not that much, did the royal family finally agree.
The prince smiled. “Rex, let me toast you with red tea, in place of wine.”
Saudi Arabia was a country which abstained from alcohol.
Anyone who entered Saudi Arabia had to leave their alcohol back on the plane. No one was allowed to bring any alcohol in.
The sweet red tea flowed down his throat. He didn’t really enjoy it, but he endured it because it was something Wen Xinya liked.
The host was very happy with tonight’s specially-arranged reception.
Si Yiyan was also very happy as he had attained his main goal.
Meanwhile, the Saudi Arabian prince had also accomplished his father’s order to gain Rex’s friendship.
After dinner, the prince brought Si Yiyan to see the royal family’s date trees. Those trees were the pride of Saudi Arabians and were hailed as “green gold” by them. They were a scarce resource throughout the world.
