The blue gift in front of him is so unfamiliar:

Peaceful but cold, indifferent but alienated, elegant but arrogant, a high arrogance burst out of his bones, invisibly like a wall, pushing and pressing towards them, the ubiquitous strong pressure made them almost out of breath, and their emotions couldn't help but be anxious.

This is not the first time George and Elizabeth have confronted Lan Li, but neither Eton Dormer's private party nor the Earl of Oxford's private party has shown such a face, and the indifference and calm that is displayed from the inside out seems to have completely severed all connections.

Love and hatred are a pair of antonyms, just like two sides of a coin, how passionate the love is, how turbulent the hatred, but only the real indifference is the stranger who stands on the opposite side of the love and hatred, all the love and hatred have all disappeared, so that they can face everything cold-blooded and cruel.

That invulnerability hurt George and Elizabeth so hard that they were even a little helpless, as if all the means had completely failed, and all the expected situations did not appear, and then they were like fools, bathed in Lan Li's calm gaze.

George faintly sensed Matthew's eyes, mixed with ridicule and disdain, faintly stinging his self-esteem, and he still couldn't hold back after all.

"You know what I mean, I'll tell you one last time: we're here for a charity auction, don't challenge our bottom line. ”

Lan Li felt a little funny, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but raise a smile, which made George more and more annoyed, "Do you think it's a joke?"

Lan Li didn't answer immediately, his smile became brighter and brighter, and he spoke without hurry, "I thought that you had already issued an ultimatum that summer five years ago, but I didn't expect that I would be able to have a second chance." ”

Five years ago?

George didn't remember it at all, and Elizabeth only had a vague impression, but Matthew remembered it very clearly, "Was it the phone call you made on the day you auditioned for the 'War of the Pacific'?"

Lan Li's eyebrows rose slightly, and his eyes were full of smiles, "Oh?

"I mentioned it once. Matthew said lightly, "That day was where your career began, wasn't it?"

"Ha, I wouldn't say that, but in a literal sense, it is. Lan Li's tone remained brisk throughout, and then he looked back at George and Elizabeth, the gentleman's smile remained the same, "I guess you don't remember." ”

"However, this is normal, life is always like this, the superior cannot remember the details of those orders, because those turning points that affect the life of ordinary people may be just an ordinary moment in the daily life of the superior, and maybe one of their orders can hurt too many people, so that they can't remember it at all. Only those ordinary people are able to remember every moment as if they were victims – even though they refuse to admit that they are victims. ”

Lan Li always expressed his views in a calm manner, and there was a little ridicule and banter in his words, and the whole person was completely relieved.

Matthew, who was standing next to him, couldn't stand it anymore, and couldn't help but complain, "Pretending to go around such a big circle in a deep way, just to pretend that he is not a victim?"

This made Lan Li chuckle directly, "I used to be, but now I am not." Unfortunately, I'm about to become the perpetrator, so allow me to decorate myself with nice words, I'm not the guy I used to be, am I?"

Matthew rolled his eyes and said with his eyes: You've never been at the mercy of others, okay?

Lan Li pretended not to see it, and turned his head to look at George and Elizabeth, "I'm sorry, please forgive me for my rudeness. I'm a little carried away, I'm really sorry. ”

Lan Li seemed to think that George and Elizabeth were not ashamed enough, and used this proper way to show that he was the superior-

The real superior will not care about those trivial gains and losses, but can accept all possibilities with a broad mind, and even show their tolerance in a casual manner. This attitude bloomed from the inside out, and suddenly there was an obvious gap between the positions of the two sides.

This is the real Blue Gift!

Against Harvey Weinstein, against Chris Evans, against Vin Diesel, against Thomas Toole...... Lan Li has never really shown his powerful attack power, that kind of aura can be easily crushed, no need for swear words or fists, and it can make people crush in a single move, even George and Elizabeth can't stop it.

What kind of beast did they raise? What kind of monster did they provoke?

"Where did we just go? Oh, yes, ultimatum. Lan Li smiled and nodded slightly, "I think you also need a definite answer, just like I did at the beginning, if I didn't make it clear, I would always hold on to a glimmer of hope, expecting that family affection would always maintain the bond, but obviously, we were all wrong." ”

"My ultimatum has been handed to you through Philip's resignation, and that is the last time. You hurt Philip, and this will never go away, and I will never forget it, remember? I'm a stubborn and paranoid guy, and things are always a little troublesome. ”

Lan Li pursed the corners of his mouth slightly, and said the cruel decision in a relaxed tone, which revealed his cold-bloodedness more and more—or in the words of the aristocracy: mature, put aside the fetters of family affection, make the right choice rationally, and give up those unnecessary entanglements and hesitations.

"The way it is now, either things are up to today and everything is here, so I can pretend that nothing has happened, or ...... Let's see who is the last one to win, and I'm more than happy to fight. I'm ready. ”

The literal translation is:

If they keep to themselves, then Lan Li will not be wiped out, even if they try to use Lan Li's fame to continue to expand their careers, that is their ability, because this is the family, "Hall" is always a Hall, and it takes too much effort to get rid of this relationship completely - hatred, more terrible than any poison, this is not the way Lan Li likes to live, he still has his dreams, his performances, and his friends to protect, these are more important than hatred.

But if they refuse, then Lan Li is willing to accompany them to the end.

At the beginning, George issued an ultimatum to Lan Li, and then they completely severed their relationship with Lan Li and left Lan Li to fend for himself in the United States.

Now, with an ultimatum to George and Elizabeth, Lan Li draws a line between them. He didn't want to dwell on the past grievances, but he just wanted to cut off all the relationships and leave all the grievances here. Otherwise...... Otherwise, he wasn't sure when his attacks would stop.

Five years ago, they were an estranged family, five years later, they were a family of hatred and entanglement, but the position of strength and weakness was reversed, and then the story changed dramatically, like a reincarnation, and the same scene played out again.

Matthew couldn't help lowering his eyes, hiding the sigh in his heart, and the lyrics found in Lan Li's room in the early morning came to his mind, "When others return home, I still walk on the road until I reach the other side, or I can achieve nothing." "It's not that Lan Li doesn't want to go home, but that he can't.

They shouldn't hurt Philip.

But for George and Elizabeth, they felt a bubbling anger surging up, and they were given an ultimatum by their own son, and it was still in public, which was equivalent to a slap in the face, and the hot cheeks were almost broken.

It's a great shame!

Because he was so angry that George's body trembled slightly, "What if I say no?"

Lan Li didn't speak, just raised his eyebrows slightly, and calmly met George's gaze, the answer was self-evident. There was no hesitation or hesitation, no soft-heartedness and no retreat, Lan Li responded positively.

"How dare you!" said George, squeezing two words out of his teeth.

Lan Li couldn't help but laugh a little - because it was ridiculous, but also because it was ridiculous.

Such a scene is really like a child quarrelling, "you hit me", "you hit me", "do you dare", "do you dare", such repeated provocations are constantly going back and forth, but no one really does it, and the result is just bluffing, making their confrontation childish and boring.

American media reporters also always like to challenge Lan Li: You dare!

But Lan Li has never been timid, why wouldn't he?

Now in the face of George asking the same question again, Lan Li simply doesn't bother to continue to do these useless verbal battles, dare or not, don't they know in their hearts?

The reason why he was willing to talk to George and Elizabeth face to face was to make it clear that the ultimatum still needs to be made clear after all, and from then on, they are passers-by, and the well water does not interfere with the river water - if they "commit", then they will meet each other in arms, it is so simple.

In fact, today's charity auction is the starting point: Lan Li will no longer be passively beaten, he will be fully armed and ready to fight, and he will attack anytime and anywhere in the future, and as long as the attack starts, he will not stop. He didn't want his hands to be covered in blood, but he didn't mind either.

Lan Li didn't turn around and leave immediately, but stayed where he was, letting the silence spread, and also made George's "you dare" become timid and empty, not needing to respond but worth a thousand words, invisibly, George began to become small, and then Lan Li took the initiative to meet the eyes of George and Elizabeth, and said with a smile, "So, is there anything else?"

A plain sentence, but it has more deep meaning in the calm and deep eyes.
