"Lan Li. Matthew finally couldn't hold back and called out to his friend.

Such a blue gift is too strange.

There was a shallow smile on top of that calm and elegant face, seamless and flawless, completely blocking all speculation and speculation, even Matthew, he was helpless now, he couldn't decipher Lan Li's mood and plan, and that sense of uneasiness made him worry about it.

Matthew couldn't imagine how ugly and dirty the gossip of high society would have become, if Lan Li really performed at a private party today, as Viscount Bioford had requested.

Finally, Lan Li has come to this day step by step with his own strength and hard work, and has truly won his own recognition, as an artist appeared at the dinner of the Earl of Oxford, and even the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have shown enough respect and courtesy;

Matthew's eyes flickered slightly.

The eye caught the faces of George and Elizabeth, and even at this moment, they were still worried about their status and glory, not about the predicament and hardship of Lan Li. He didn't know how Lan Li was feeling right now, but his anger was almost out of control, and he couldn't help but clench his fists tightly.

The corners of Lan Li's mouth still had that unhurried and unhurried smile, and the perfect gentleman's manners exuded a deep meaning in the shadow of his clothes and temples, even Viscount Bioford couldn't pick out the thorns, he didn't speak, just met Matthew's gaze, the light in the depths of his pupils flickered faintly, and then he turned around and took a step towards the hall.

The firm footsteps burst out with a resolute and powerful momentum, step by step through the darkness to the light, as if the naked eye visibly captured the process of the back growing into a giant little by little, and finally tore the entire space upright, firmly occupying the corners of the world, and all the eyes around it were involuntarily projected.

It was supposed to be the passive side, but now it has taken the initiative to take over the situation.

Beatrice turned his head to look at Viscount Bioford, stamped his foot in annoyance, and without saying anything more, hurried after him, while Richard shook his head again and again, full of irritation and anger, but did not know how to express it, and at last he did not say a word, and walked briskly, while beckoning the waiter, and quickly unfolding the arrangements.

Matthew didn't move immediately, but looked around, and then found Andre and Eaton in the crowd, and quickly made a look, and the three of them quickly disappeared into the surging crowd and quickly began to get busy. Things have finally reached the point of tearing their faces, and they need to seek more reinforcements for Lan Li.

William and Kate exchanged glances.

William tried to turn away, he didn't want to get involved in this muddy water, it was a private party, it had nothing to do with the position of the royal family, all accidents were harmless, but he still had no intention of participating, but Kate insisted on going, and those wise eyes resolutely expressed her will.

In the end, there was a stalemate.

Kate stepped aside, while William stayed put. But then William noticed that everyone in the party was moving towards the hall, and even if he stayed, he couldn't find any social partners now, so he shook his head helplessly and followed.

George and Elizabeth wanted to run away.

Because they knew that it was a humiliating occasion, there could be no other outcome, and the embarrassing things were taken for granted to Lan Li and became a part of his life, but they were not. They absolutely cannot accept that in the current situation, leaving is the only option.

But they can't help it.

Viscount John de Bioford stared at them intently, his incisive gaze condescending to the trial, as if dissecting them inside and out, his sharp gaze making them almost nowhere to escape, as if they were going to turn his attack at the slightest rash move.

Little by little, George and Elizabeth could only take a bold step and, accompanied by John, walked in the direction of the hall.

……

Edith, who was standing on the balcony, suddenly began to panic, "What's going on? Huh, what's going on? Why is Lan Li coming towards us? What the hell is going on? Oops, no bugging is a problem. ”

Arthur has a black line. Is it time to complain about bugging?

"Hey, what the hell is wrong with them, why are they all coming here?" Edith subconsciously talked to Arthur, watching the gossip, after all, it was interesting to discuss and share with each other.

Arthur was also confused, "Why don't I think something is right? Matthew just glanced at us and seemed to be sending some signal? God, he thought I was Superman or Hawkeye, how could I see it from such a distance? He ......"

The words were interrupted, and Arthur and Edith both closed their mouths at the same time, and their bodies stiffened in place.

At this moment, Lan Li's footsteps were already approaching. He was climbing the stairs, the dark shadows slid down from his shoulders like a tide, the goose-yellow light slowly sprinkled down, the whole figure became clear and bright, he raised his chin, his eyes swept in the direction of the balcony, but there was no superfluous movement, and then, the figure disappeared into the light.

“…… He saw us, didn't he?" Edith said with her head downcast, but her movements remained unblocked, still stiff.

Arthur exhaled softly, "It's a pity. Yes. ”

The two exchanged a glance and did not speak, just eye contact, and then understood what each other meant, Edith shrugged, "Let's go." ”

They knew they had to attend. No matter what the accident or the situation, they have to show up. Thinking back to Matthew's eyes and movements just now, they could already predict that the situation should not be very good, could it be that they were really going to tear the mask completely?

Suddenly a little excited, what the hell is going on?

……

The hall grew noisy, a standard banquet hall where ballroom dances could be held, golf swings could be practiced, and frolicking - no one would do, it was a traditional hall that could accommodate up to three hundred guests, but few hosts would fill it, and a maximum of one hundred to two hundred guests was the limit of the banquet.

It's just that today it seems that there will be an exception.

There were more and more guests in the hall, more and more, and the scale of two hundred people had soon broken through, and the bustling sound actually showed a hint of the noise and noise of a traditional market.

But now I can't take care of it. There were even people who went to the second floor for the first time, standing on the stairs and in the corridors, looking down from the high point, although this was a childish act of disgrace, there was no time to discuss these now, everyone knew that something was going to happen, everyone knew that it was related to Lan Li, who wanted to miss it?

"Ladies and gentlemen. ”

Lan Li raised his voice and said, without waiting for the guests to arrive, nor waiting for the host to appear, he spontaneously made a sound, and then all the noise gradually precipitated, and all eyes fell on Lan Li's body, those attention, those excitement, those curiosity, those excitement, so hot that the skin began to tingle, and the scene was like a circus.

"Welcome to today's party, and thank you Richard de Ville for inviting us here together. Lan Li smiled at the corner of her mouth, and her calm demeanor was always meticulous, as if this was the world's highest performance stage, and all the guests were dressed up to enjoy an elegant classical art.

"I just happened to meet Viscount John de Bioford. Jazz said, I hope I can perform here once, since I am a Hollywood actor, why refuse the opportunity to perform?"

Lan Li shrugged slightly, "I can't argue with that. Hollywood is the biggest show in the world, and it's a life show, so what's the difference between there and here? So, here I am. ”

A pun intended. Lan Li is mocking Hollywood, and he is also mocking the aristocracy in front of him.

Everybody prides itself on being noble, and thinks that Hollywood is nothing more than a circus of plays, but what about high society? Just seeing the excitement, everybody can't wait to flock to it, no different from the ordinary people.

The down-and-out generous words slapped all the guests on the scene in the face.

There is shame, there is anger, there is chagrin, there is disdain, there is curiosity, there is contempt, there is ridicule......

George and Elizabeth's expressions were even stiffer, they could deeply feel the malice from Lan Li, and the words were aimed at them, and all the memories of the past six months were surging up, annoyed and angry, and instantly became cold and hot, completely at a loss.

When Matthew, Andre, Eton and others entered the banquet hall, the scene was already surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside, and they couldn't squeeze in at all, so they had no choice but to walk in the direction of the spiral staircase, like children, standing on the top of the steps, striving for a better view.

In the middle of his sight, Lan Li politely spread his right hand and stood next to a grand piano with a shallow smile on his face, "Then, let the performance begin." ”

In those bright eyes, a stormy sea was brewing.
