238 The so-called family affection

The night of London flows outside the car window, like a meandering river, and the cold and bleak early autumn scenery passes through the quaint buildings, historic streets, and misty drizzle, revealing a sense of heaviness and elegance, and the precipitation of time gives the city a unique taste.

The bustle and bustle of Notting Hill also fell silent at this time, and there were not even too many people in sight on the streets, as if escaping the hustle and bustle of the city in the countryside.

Philip accurately parked the car on the side of the road, then turned off the engine, the quiet warm air slowly surged in the car, he looked at Lan Li and Matthew sitting in the back seat through the rearview mirror, was silent for a moment, finally said nothing, got out of the car, then went around to the side of the road, and opened the door.

First Matthew, then Lan Li.

Philip closed the door, then opened the back compartment, took Lan Li's luggage out, and walked over with Lan Li. The two men stood in the doorway, waiting for Matthew to pull the keys out of his briefcase, the quiet silence still surging, calm with a hint of depression, making the air even colder in the drizzly night.

Matthew opened the sky blue door on the first floor, and Philip carried his luggage inside, placed it against the door, and then turned to leave. However, when he walked to the door, his footsteps couldn't help but stop, and he turned to look at Lan Li again.

Lan Li didn't leave, didn't even take off his trench coat, and had a shallow smile on his face, as if he had expected him to turn around. This made Philip's old-fashioned eyebrows bring a hint of warmth, "Young Master Lanli, are you okay?"

This is not just an ordinary greeting, Lan Li knows that Philip is asking if he is okay in the past year and a half, whether things are still going well after chasing his dreams, whether he is still adapting after returning to London, and whether everything is okay when he is away from the constraints of family and wandering away.

"I'm fine. Philip. Lan Li smiled and nodded, and the warmth in her heart made her smile also dyed with warm colors.

Philip looked at Lan Li quietly, and finally didn't say anything, just showed a shallow smile, bowed politely to Lan Li, and then nodded to Matthew, then turned around and left without any stop. After a while, the sound of the engine came back from outside the door panel, and it faded away.

After eighteen months, I returned home again. What greeted him was not only the coldness of the room, but also the indifferent alienation and caution, what they cared about was not his dreams, his achievements, his hard work, but whether he was decent, whether he maintained the continuity of the nobility, whether he tarnished the family reputation, they clearly drew a line, isolating the two sides in two different worlds, as if they were two spaces to isolate the source of infectious diseases.

There was no angry confrontation, no angry roar, no violent collision, everything was suppressed under that delicate and noble mask, cold and piercing, even the quarrel was so calm.

The only one who really cared about him was Philip.

Ironically, as stewards, the first thing they are taught is to be emotionally restrained, to ignore the gossip, not to show their hearts easily, not to get too emotionally involved, because they have to be objective enough.

Turning around, Lan Li saw Matthew's worried expression, with a hint of bitterness between his eyebrows, dyed a trace of temperature for his cold and detached temperament, and he asked hesitantly, "Are you okay?"

Same question, but with different meanings. Lan Li couldn't help but chuckle, turned around, and Matthew stepped forward, took off his coat, and hung it on the hanger next to him, "Very good, it couldn't be better." This is not the first time he has faced the indifference of his family, "This time I came here to work, I need to focus on work, and I plan to do the same." You should be clean enough here, right? If not, I can stay in a hotel. ”

"You can go over now, do you need me to call a rental for you?" Matthew complained calmly.

If Lan Li lives in the hotel, it is really lively, and within two hours, it is estimated that the entire upper class will be discussing, and there will even be some guys who are willing to discuss gossip and watch the blood, and they will go to the hotel to surround Lan Li.

Lan Li glanced at Matthew and retorted lightly, "Or are you planning to go to Knightsbridge to live, and leave the key here to me?"

This is to take possession of the magpie's nest and drive the owner out. Matthew shook his head speechlessly, "Don't worry, even if George shows up at the door downstairs, I won't let them in." ”

"Oh no, if he shows up, you'd better let him in. Otherwise, this scandal will be lively for at least two months, and you will have to bear a lot of fire by then. Lan Li's teasing words made Matthew chuckle. "By the way, do you remember Andre Hamilton? I met him in France not long ago, and I exchanged business cards again, and the last time I saw him in social circles was like a century ago. ”

"André, of course, he is now the only Casanova in London, and many aristocratic girls are fascinated by him. At this year's Christmas party, there should be a lot of families who want to marry him. ”

"Hey, what's the point? He's wandering, I'm wandering, why did he become a saint of love, and I became Don Quixote?"

"Maybe it's because he's more handsome than you?"

"Well, I have no way of denying that fact. ”

……

Having lived in New York for so long, Lan Li thought that he had gradually adapted to life in a foreign country, after all, he was not strictly Londoner, he was Chinese in soul, and had lived in that land for thirty-two years, compared to living in a foreign country every day of his life.

But back in London, Lan Li realized that this rainy, cold, quaint city was still an indispensable part of his life. Its impact is far beyond one's imagination, and every cell of the body is reawakened as if it never left.

It didn't take much effort for Lan Li to adapt to the terrible weather in London, which was a good thing for the rest of the show.

But for Drake, it was not so lucky, on the first day of arriving in London, he was hit by the rain and cold air, suffering from a severe cold, not only was his voice hoarse and almost speechless, but the sound of blowing his nose on the set every day was undulating, almost like an out-of-tune symphony.

Fortunately, although his nose was congested and his throat was red and swollen, Drake's directing status was not seriously affected, his brain was still clear enough, and the filming of the crew was still going according to the expected rhythm.

I don't know what the reason is - maybe it's because when she was in Los Angeles before, Felicity watched Lan Li and Jennifer shoot, diluting that vague spark, maybe because Lan Li returned to London, on the surface, it didn't seem to have an impact, but deep down she still felt the impact from the family......

But as a result, the bond between the two people seems to be severed, the beating hormonal breath quietly disappears, and the wanton germination of the spark is gradually evaporating, as if the two people who originally moved side by side, the pace, gestures, and speed are completely consistent, and the state of flowing water is amazing, and it is really pleasing to the eye; The amplitude seems to have begun to change slightly, so that the synchronization is disrupted, and the two men are still moving side by side, but the visuals are still chaotic.

This is a good thing for "love is crazy".

Anna stays in London to start a new life, but after all, she can't suppress the pain of lovesickness and completely breaks down on the phone, so Jacob desperately leaves everything in Los Angeles and crosses the Atlantic Ocean to London to reunite with Anna. However, Jacob found himself an outsider, and the two men were no longer on the same channel.

This feeling of being unable to express in words, but gradually drifting between the eyebrows, this feeling of seeing each other grow more and more in love, this feeling of struggling but unable to do anything...... It was originally the most difficult part of the script of "Love is Crazy", but for Felicity and Lan Li, it was the most challenging part of the performance, without any lines, and completely dependent on the performance.

Unexpectedly, the two of them easily interpreted this feeling, especially the dull dilemma - both people want to work hard, and they are working hard, but they don't know why they are working hard and how they should work hard, this confusion and confusion are vividly displayed between gestures, and even the moment of eye exchange fills the blank space of the script incomparably full, every scene is a challenge, but every scene is wonderful, which really makes the performance a kind of enjoyment!

Drake, who had been suffering from a cold, couldn't have been more excited, and even though his throat was so red and swollen that he could barely make a sound, he couldn't help but dance in celebration and use all his strength to show his admiration to the two actors.

In just five days, "Love Crazy" completed 80% of the filming, but the crew still couldn't relax easily, because they still had a major scene that was never filmed, this scene was really too important, Drake was worried that his state was bad and not enough to control, so he simply filmed the next few scenes in advance, hoping that his cold could be relieved, and then put into filming.

However, even if they keep going backwards, at most they will go back for a day or two, because they don't have much time and money in the first place. What's more, they have to go back to Los Angeles to complete the final shoot.

After all, the filming of the main event has arrived.
