Looking at the panicked and earthy face of Chris, Lan Li’s smile quietly climbed to the corner of his mouth. The scene where the famous "Captain America" was scared to death is really rare; but the smile only paused for a moment, and then, Lan Li turned his attention away and answered honestly, "Chris, I don't like you, it's my responsibility."
What do you mean?
Chris feels that his brain can't keep up with Renly. What does it mean... "I don't like you, this is my responsibility?" This sentence is not logical at all, isn't it? Does Lan Li know what he is talking about? Or is it an excerpt from a Nicholas Sparks novel?
Chris stared at Renly with question marks all over his head. He could understand every word, but he couldn't understand all of them in combination. He began to wonder if he had drunk too much champagne, or because he had drunk too much. Champagne. So, should he ask? If he speaks, what should he ask?
Looking at the ignorant Chris, Lan Li was a little helpless and helpless to complain.
From a distance, Lan Li could see the gaze projected by Matthew, with a hint of sympathy in his eyes, as if he could fully understand Lan Li’s situation. This made Lan Li couldn’t help but laugh, he decided to speak again, in order to overcome Reese explained something.
In fact, Chris knows a lot of things and situations. He is not a fool. But the problem lies in the fact that the authorities are obsessed with the bystanders, and how can a fool who is in love see clearly? And because of the special circumstances of the Hall family, common sense simply doesn't apply, and Chris lost his ability to think.
"Chris, if someone hurts your brother, what would you do?" Lan Li asked--
Chris’ younger brother Scott Evans (-Evans) has officially come out. He will face the prejudice and pressure of the whole society. It is different from Edith and Chris’ situation, but also has many similarities. Everywhere, the potential damage is everywhere, like landmines, everywhere.
Chris didn't hesitate for a second, as if he didn't need to think at all, the words blurted out, "I support all his decisions! I will protect him at all costs!"
After speaking, Chris was still a little stunned. He didn't seem to understand the reason why Lan Li raised such a question, but only for a moment, he suddenly realized, "Oh...oh!"
All the confusion and incomprehension, just like getting through the two channels of Ren and Du, instantly became natural. All the past experiences came to my heart.
When Chris looked at Lan Li again, the confusion in his eyes could not be sorted out for a while, so he could only follow his own instincts and said, "Lan Li, please rest assured..."
Chris was about to express his thoughts to Lan Li, but Lan Li was the first to interrupt Chris's words, "Save a little saliva, actions are always more effective than words."
After that, Lan Li turned his head and looked at Chris. A look, just one look is enough to let Chris understand what Lan Li meant; then, Lan Li turned around and took a step in the direction of Matthew. , Leaving Chris standing in place, thoughtful and lost in thought.
Without comparison, there is no harm.
Rooney, who made her debut in the Hall's house, is like a fish in the water, unhurried, comfortable, not jerky, generous and confident, and easily becomes the center of social occasions. Even Edith and Arthur can't be too picky. Many; but Chris is still ignorant, as if he was the first person to attend such a banquet—
But there is no problem saying that, because this is the first time that Renly has held a formal banquet. The atmosphere and environment are high-standard, high-treatment and high-level, which is not comparable to Hollywood. Chris's nervousness is completely understandable.
To be sure, the road for Chris to adapt to Hall’s house is still long and arduous, and Lan Li doesn’t know if Edith has plans to take Chris to meet George and Elizabeth.
Because Lan Li can’t be sure, exactly where George and Elizabeth are in Edith’s mind—just like Arthur. In fact, Arthur still keeps in touch with his parents, the relationship between every child and their parents. They are all different. Renly is Renly, and Arthur and Edith are also independent individuals. They will not interfere with each other; but if Edith is going to let Chris visit his parents, then Chris still needs to exercise.
The dinner officially started at 9:30.
Everyone was seated at the long formal banquet table. Under the leadership of Philip, the waiters walked into the restaurant with silver plates, and they all entered the restaurant in a uniform, all standing behind the guests. This was the same time. On the previous step, the dinner plate was placed in front of the guests, and the lid was lifted together.
Properly advanced and well-trained service posture, invisibly showed the unique treatment of the real aristocratic level, so that everyone could not help being slightly restrained, subconsciously showing their best etiquette, trying to fully fit the atmosphere of the scene , Is indeed an extraordinary experience.
Mei Duo said bluntly, "I only have real feelings now." Hereditary aristocrats, from intangible to tangible, only a corner of Lanli-Hall's profound background is revealed.
From the rules to the etiquette to the menu, Philip really gave a noble dinner; but compared to the real noble dinner, the blue ceremony was still a little relaxed. After all, this is no longer Bayswater but the Prince’s Garden. They Some things can be continued, but some things should be changed.
This also makes the whole dinner look much warmer.
"Ding Ding Ding."
Someone rang the wine glass, and the crisp sound attracted everyone's attention. This is the only way on the long banquet table to not make noise but still gather the focus. Obviously, someone should be ready to give a speech at this moment, but The place where the gaze gathers is not the host Lan Li tonight, but...
Edith Hall.
Edith stood up slightly restrained, picked up her champagne glass, and bathed in the sight of everyone, which made her a little uneasy, but she still said, "Hey! Hello, everyone." Edith said harshly. She glared at Lan Li fiercely, only to see Lan Li’s gloat smile, which made Edith itch with hatred, but it was obviously not the best time to turn the table, so she could only force herself to withdraw her gaze. .
"We all know that Lanly is an impeccably perfect speaker, and no one can take his lightning. But this Romeo seemed unwilling to occupy too much of the limelight tonight, so he entrusted this task to me. Because I lost the bet, Arthur and Lanly watched me stand up, like a puppet, but clumsily didn’t know what to say. The lesson is, don’t gamble with your brother ."
Haha!
Everyone laughed collectively. Renly and Arthur even gave applause, so it was so lively; Rooney raised the champagne glass and gestured to Edith to cheer for Edith. This made Yi Diss' mood calmed a little, and her confused thoughts reorganized.
"Christmas has never had any exact meaning to me. First, I don’t go to church. Second, I don’t remember exactly when it was Christmas when both my father and mother appeared. There was only a blue gift and occasionally. To Arthur, believe me, you don’t want such a Christmas."
Edith's thoughts were a little confused, but she gradually settled and concentrated, and the words from the heart flowed out unknowingly.
She thought it would be very difficult-the facts are indeed extremely difficult, but the scene she imagined will be more severe, and now...not so terrible.
"Since I discovered that my Christmas gifts were not from Santa Claus, but from Philip and Denise, the final meaning of Christmas seemed to be shattered. I never had a chance to truly understand the meaning of Christmas, believe me , When your father chose to go to the club to smoke a cigar on Christmas Eve, and your mother was drinking alone in the room, Christmas was not as beautiful as imagined. I am always wondering: Why would someone celebrate the death of a stranger And what about resurrection? The premise is if the legend is real."
"Until tonight."
"When I was in White Christmas again, when I saw Philip again, when I was holding a champagne glass again and complaining that my customized dress didn't seem to fit well... I finally got it~www.novelhall.com~ It should be said that I finally found it. For the first time in my life, I found the meaning of Christmas. What I didn’t find in Bayswater is now in the Prince’s Garden."
Edith's voice was slightly nasal, but she still raised her champagne glass and mustered the courage to continue.
"Look at everything you have around you, then close your eyes and imagine the other things you have. Anyway, when you open your eyes, we have no way to see the things that are truly worth having. Now, it comes to your mind. No matter how you find it, and no matter how long it can last...the most beautiful, brightest, and warmest will eventually go out. This is the law of nature. You have no way to control it, but at least, you Have them now. This has meaning."
Rooney stretched out her left hand and held Lan Li’s right hand under the table. She could notice that Lan Li’s fingertips were slightly cold, and she wrapped Lan Li’s palm with her palm, tightly, just like that. Hold it tightly, let your own warmth pass bit by bit.
"This is our miracle. Every Christmas, its existence reminds us all the time not to forget what we have, because only by remembering this can we let go of our hands and feet to chase more Great dreams. Miracles happen every day."
Edith raised her champagne glass and turned to look at her brother, "Arthur, Renly, thank you for being by my side this Christmas. Let us pay tribute to the miracle together."
Lan Li gathered his right hand, held the warmth tightly, refused to let go, then raised the champagne glass with his left hand, and showed a big smile at Edith, "Salute to Edith Hall."
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
