"You should know that we can hear all the whispers just now, right?"

Lan Li's understatement had a hint of light-hearted cheerfulness, which made Edith's eyes widen, she knew that Lan Li was deliberate, deliberately watching jokes, deliberately playing pranks.

This damn guy.

Edith frequently glanced at her to express her strong protest, but the flustered appearance made Lan Li and Matthew both show funny eyes, not only did not relent, but became more cheerful, for this good show, obviously couldn't look forward to it, Edith was also helpless.

Chris could sense the surging air, and even though he couldn't decipher the details of his emotions, he could still feel the surging undercurrent, and he realized that he had to step up.

"Edith was under a lot of pressure when it came to us. But I just want to say that we mean it! She won't waver, and neither will I! We're willing to face everything together, and if there's any problem in the future, just come to me!" Chris said with his chest puffed out, unwavering and righteous.

However, in the eyes of Lan Li and Matthew, it seems a little funny: because Lan Li didn't embarrass him in the first place. If Lan Li really wanted to embarrass Chris, the world wouldn't be so peaceful now.

Edith was no exception, she was amused and moved, but she still couldn't hold back after all, she chuckled, hugged Chris tightly, and gently patted Chris's back with her left hand, indicating comfort and intimacy. In this moment, they are possessing each other, incomparably truly.

Lan Li restrained her smile slightly, and said lightly, "Don't worry, we're definitely going for you." We won't embarrass Edith, she's a Hall anyway. I don't mind family scandals, but that doesn't mean I'll create them myself. ”

The light appearance made Chris open his mouth, but he couldn't say a word, and then Lan Li continued, "What's more, you are only talking with the impulse and passion of the love period now, and the words have no credibility, so why should I care?

The movie and Li always depict that when they are in love, they beat the mandarin ducks and can't wait to try to separate the two people. But this is not necessary at all, because the opposition and protest during the love period only make the connection between the two parties closer and closer, resulting in a kind of tragedy and tragedy when they join forces against the world, and the bond becomes closer and closer.

But after the love period, things are different. From love to marriage, and even for a long time, this is an incomparably long process that requires courage and perseverance. This is especially true for the aristocracy, which is not a process that can be held out in a month or two months. Of course, the marriage of interests is a different matter.

Chris immediately became anxious, "What are you talking about? We mean it!"

Lan Li didn't speak or refute, just looked at Chris and Edith with a smile, and her calm demeanor seemed to say: Look, I said, both parties in love have lost their minds, and the posture of sitting firmly on the Diaoyu Tai firmly holds the rhythm and atmosphere of the scene in their hands.

Chris tried to argue, but he slammed his fist on the cotton, and there was nowhere to use it, this feeling was really too aggrieved and too depressing, but he was unwilling to back down, so he could only stare at Lan Li angrily and refuse to disarm.

The atmosphere stiffened slightly.

"Chris, can you get me a whiskey?" Edith began.

Chris immediately exclaimed sensitively, "Edith!" As soon as he heard it, he knew that Edith was ready to break him aside and talk to Lan Li alone. They had already said that this matter was left to him, and this was something he needed to face, even if he took a step back, it should be something that the two of them faced together.

But Edith didn't back down, gently patted Chris's chest, and signaled him with her eyes not to worry, and the two of them stiffened there for a moment.

Neither Lan Li nor Matthew spoke.

The scene stiffened again, and in the end, Chris was defeated.

He hugged Edith firmly, "Don't make me regret making such a decision. ”

Edith smiled dumbly and said softly, "Believe me, Lan Li is the only one in the entire Hall family who won't hurt me. After saying this, she herself was slightly stunned, this was the first time she faced this matter calmly, but she did not seem strange at all, and nodded again to show confirmation, "I am serious." ”

Chris couldn't help but roll his eyes, "Edith, are you trying to make me jealous?"

"He's another Hall. Edith shook her head helplessly.

"If you continue like this, I can't guarantee what will happen next. Lan Li interrupted the conversation between the two young couples, and then looked at Edith with a smile on her face, the disdain of joking and complaining made Edith's cheeks suddenly hot.

Chris grimaced and tried to confront Lan Li.

But Lan Li took a step forward and cast his gaze, "Chris, you know what? Impulsiveness and recklessness are of no use. Also, your jealousy and affection will not do me any good. You're embarrassing yourself and you're making it harder and harder for Edith. ”

"......" Chris couldn't help but open his mouth, trying to refute, but couldn't squeeze out a word.

Edith sighed softly, she knew that this was Lan Li's advice, not a reprimand. In fact, Lan Li is already very, very gentle, if it is Elph or Arthur, the scene is estimated to be even more ugly, not to mention George and Elizabeth.

The plot of the TV series and the movie, the plot of using a check to pass "Cinderella", will not happen in real life, at least not in the Hall family, but they are powerful enough to truly crush Chris's dignity and pride, and even destroy it.

Edith didn't argue any further, turned around, and patted Chris's arm again.

This time, Chris did not object, and looked at Lan Li again before turning to leave.

As for Matthew, he didn't need to say more, he gestured to Lan Li, and then stood up, smiled at Edith's chin, and said with a chuckle, "Good luck." There was a hint of comfort and joy on that cold face, and I couldn't help but want the corners of my mouth to rise, and finally I took a step.

Edith just felt a dull pain in her head, and quietly came to Matthew's previous position, sat down next to Lan Li, and was silent for a moment, "You don't think about him?"

"Huh. You should know better than I do. Isn't it?" Lan Li replied with a smile, "To be exact, you shouldn't be surprised. ”

Tonight, Lan Li just has EGOT, and he hasn't even moved out of his strong connections and influence, not to mention his iron and cold tactics, Chris has already felt a lot of pressure, and for the Hall family, the importance of the trophy is far less than Lan Li's influence on the entire industry.

To put it simply, one is local and the other is global.

The difference in vision is also destined for the difference in class. Chris is nervous because of Lan Li's EGOT, and the Hall family doesn't care about the so-called EGOT, what really makes them jealous is Lan Li's power and hand. The waves and ripples created by the Earl's private dinner at Oxford, which was what they feared.

Edith didn't speak. As Lan Li said, she had already been prepared for this.

Lan Li was silent for a moment, and then spoke again, "Why him? I don't see anything special about him. I mean, I'm not going to think like George and Elizabeth that you're just consuming, or rather a momentary impulse, and I know you're not an impulsive personality, otherwise he wouldn't be here tonight, but...... Why him?"

"What's wrong with him?"

"It's not good anywhere. Wait, or do you want to include the pectoral muscles?"

"Lanli-Hall!"

"I'm serious. Where the hell is he worth the bet? I mean, except for his size. ”

In the face of Lan Li's ridicule and jokes, this time, Edith did not continue to retort, the irritability and eagerness around her body precipitated, hesitated for a long time, and thought for a long time, and then said, "If I say that he taught me how to love people, do you believe it?"

Love.

Following Chris, Edith also mentions the term.

Lan Li did not answer, but listened patiently.

Edith didn't care, "It was he who made me understand how to approach a complete stranger and embrace each other with his own warmth wholeheartedly." True love is not about calculating or calculating, but about holding each other's hands tightly, tolerating and understanding each other. ”

She knows better than anyone what an important choice this is, and her work and persistence are nothing compared to this, which is the real deviance. But...... She still chose to stand up, fight for this relationship to the end, and give it a go.

After a moment's pause, Edith continued, "He gave me the courage to stand up to George and Elizabeth, he gave me the confidence to continue chasing my dreams, or did he give me the warmth to truly find a place in this world." ”

"You all think that I am the one who gives, but in fact, I am the one who receives. He...... Really paid too much. Standing in front of you tonight is really incredibly difficult for him, because he knows that you are important to me. Edith said earnestly, opening up for the first time and revealing all her true thoughts.

Turning her head, Edith saw the smiling expression on Lan Li's face, "I'm important?"

Edith rolled her eyes widely, and said angrily, "I wouldn't have said it if I had known, I thought you wouldn't make a fuss!" Raising her hand, she gave Lan Li an elbow with her elbow, hitting Lan Li's ribs hard, "Isn't that the point?"

"But Chris will. Lan Li's voice continued to joke with a shallow smile, and once again brought up Chris's jealous behavior.

Edith was also helpless, "Sebastian! ”
