Chapter 49: Pride and Prejudice
At nearly 19:3o in the evening, the night sky was full of stars, and the lemonade restaurant on Barrington Avenue east of Brentwood, Ye Wei and Lily made an appointment to meet here.
When Ye Wei arrived by bicycle, Lily had already arrived in the distance, and she was sitting at the farthest position of the small roadside table outside the store from the door, and there were no customers at the other tables at this time, only she looked at the starry sky in the distance, looking a little lonely.
"Hey, Lily. Ye Wei shouted, parked the bicycle, and walked over, "Why don't you wait inside?"
When Lily heard this, she suddenly smiled, "Good evening, bastard." ”
"I guessed that you would treat me like this, the first thing you said when we met again after a long absence!" Ye Wei sat down in the small chair opposite her and asked for a glass of watermelon water from the waitress who came over. Lily already had a glass of pear juice on her side, and a beautifully wrapped blue gift box next to her.
It was obviously a gift for him, and he reached for it: "Wow, thanks, what's that?" asked her on the phone, but kept it mysterious.
"Wait!" Lily opened his hand a little annoyed, the bastard had only seen the gift, and hadn't said a word yet.
"I'm sorry, I'm the kind of person who wants to destroy a gift box when I see it. Ye Wei shrugged, put his hands on the table, leaned forward with his upper body, and stared at her.
I haven't seen her for four days, and Lily is still so beautiful and moving, with a white and black Chanel jacket and jeans, a long brown and black shawl coming down, two long eyebrows full of heroism, and bright eyes.
Lily was also looking at him, looking at each other, and both of them slowly smiled again, the feeling of being sprung up and something was sprouting in their hearts.
After a while, when the waitress came over and served watermelon juice, Ye Wei took a sip before asking, "Is the holiday still enjoyable?"
"It's fine. Lily nodded, as if she was quite happy: "My dad cares about me a lot, we talk a lot, and Nicholas, he is bigger and more sensible, and Orion, I had a shopping trip with her, we bought a lot of things, and our relationship has changed again...... We used to be fine, only after Nicholas was born, we were a little more estranged, but now we ...... I can't make it up......" she suddenly hung her head and sighed, "rotten vacation, rotten." ”
Ye Wei had always seen that she was not in a good mood, and smiled at the moment: "Fortunately, your ability to make up stories and tell stories is not strong, otherwise what charm do I have? ”
"Megalomaniacs. Lily's smile was still flat, "Say more assholes, make me laugh, and then I'll be fine......"
"I don't think so, Lily, were you really good with Orion before?" Ye Wei didn't laugh, and asked a serious question.
"Well, it's true, we play together, we attend my dad's events together......" Lily seemed to miss that brief time a little, "I think back then, she really wanted to be my stepmother, but since having Nicholas, it's different......"
Ye Wei leaned back in the chair, thought for a while, and said: "After my sister was born, my parents also had this kind of change, as if many things that originally belonged to me were all hers all of a sudden. At first, I was also angry and depressed, but soon, I understood that she was so young, and it was right for her parents to care more about her, and they ignored me because they felt ...... I've grown up, I've had responsibilities, and in fact, I'm an older brother. ”
Lily listened silently, understanding what he meant, responsibility, and she felt the knot in her heart gradually unravel......
"I think at times like this, we just should, let it be. Ye Wei looked into her eyes, "If you change your mentality to deal with things, maybe it will be different." I don't know the specifics of your vacation, but is it possible that you will take the initiative to join them? ”
"You're right...... Indeed, I should care more about Nicholas's ......" Lily felt a little, thinking back to this holiday, how much she cared about them, "but I will learn to do this in the future, and hopefully there will be a good change." ”
Sometimes it's really good to have this kind of strict communication with him.
Because her heart is much more comfortable, her smile becomes brighter.
"I'm just talking nonsense, if you have anything to gain, it means that the truth is already in your heart, but people often don't like to introspect and prefer to be comforted by others. You know, it's still. Ye Wei said.
"Okay, what about you, how is this holiday?" Lily picked up the glass of pear juice and took a sip from the straw, her eyes always looking at him.
"I'm much better, a magical holiday!" Ye Wei smiled and shared with her the experience of the past few days, of course, excluding Costco's part, "So, most of the preliminary preparations have been completed, and the rest is almost all copywriting, so I'm not worried at all." ”
"It was great. Lily complimented, but noticed something else, "So you dated Anna Sophia Rob for a day today?"
"It's not a day, I'm sitting here right now. Ye Wei spread his hands first and then pointed at himself, seeing that she frowned, he smiled hey: "Yes, Anna thinks it's a date, I don't know, maybe? Scold me, I'm a playboy, hahaha!"
Lily glared at him, "Who cares, I said it, you can do what you want, we're just dating......"
"Okay, do I have any more gifts?"
"Bastard. She stomped her foot lightly and pushed the gift box on the table to him, "It's for you, I can't find anyone else to send it anyway." ”
"Wow. Ye Wei took it with a smile, and honestly and unceremoniously tore off the outer layer of blue gift paper, "What could it be, I'm so nervous, people like jewelry, the more expensive the better......"
Lily was amused by him again: "Then you got it, it's jewelry, big jewelry!"
After tearing off the gift paper, Ye Wei saw the packaging box inside, a big logo, a yellow "cooke" in a yellow circle, Cook shot! He suddenly exclaimed: "Wow! Cook shot...... 35mm wide-angle lens!
He immediately unpacked it and took out the heavy lens inside, the Cook lens is the most famous product of the British lens dealer Tay1orhobson (Tay1orhobson), one of the giants of cinema lenses. The light is very good, and the colors are typical of the British style, which is more neutral but full.
This shot is worth a lot of money, at least a thousand dollars. He looked at Lily and smiled, "This gift is so heavy, thank you." It seems that if I go to become a psychiatrist, it will be achieved. ”
"If you come less, you don't care what the price is. Lily chuckled, her eyes couldn't hide her expectation, "Like it or not?" I don't know if it's good or not, but I think you'll need it......"
"Are you kidding? It's fantastic, and I certainly like it. Ye Wei held the camera with both hands, "This is mine, no one can snatch it", "When I shoot a short film in a few days, I will use it to shoot a few British-style wide-angle shots." ”
He naturally understood her intentions, this was the director's dream that supported him, no matter how crazy this thing was, she trusted him.
"I'll cherish it. He said seriously, and his heart was warm, "There will definitely be a lot of good movie shots that are shot with it." ”
"That's good. Lily smiled happily, "I'll wait and see." ”
"I also have a Thanksgiving gift for you......" In contrast, Ye Wei's gift is much more shabby, and he bought it at Costco on Black Friday.
"Where?" Lily looked around him with some excitement, not seeing that he had brought a present.
"Bell, bell, bell!" Ye Wei took out a palm-sized pink gift box from his pocket. Lily wowed, took the paper in her hand, and before opening the small box, she smiled, "Let me guess...... What kind of jewelry is it?" Ye Wei covered his chest in surprise: "You know how to see through, oh my God, I'm ** now!"
"your ......" Lily smiled and opened the gift box, only to see a silver-white lily brooch, exquisite workmanship, she said happily: "Wow, it's beautiful, I like it." ”
Ye Wei frowned, embarrassed to say that this little thing only cost 5 US dollars, but she must have seen it, he smiled: "I don't know if it has any brands, I bought it at Costco, there were so many people that day that I went crazy." ”
"It's beautiful. Lily praised it again, picked up the brooch, and immediately put it on the left side of her coat, a little gift that made her much happier than the sports car that her father had said.
When she put it on, Ye Wei looked at it, both moved by her liking and enjoying the beauty, "It's beautiful, both Lily are." ”
"Thank you......" Lily looked at him again, took a sip of her drink, her eyes rippled, and her voice became softer: "However, I really want to say thank you to you, not just this gift...... I don't know, haha, what do I want to say, I just think...... It's not a bad thing to get to know you. ”
"Oh, you still think it's a bad thing?" Ye Wei looked disappointed and surprised.
"Yes. Lily nodded, thinking about something, and said, "I have a misunderstanding about you, I was rude on the day of Operation Cuttlefish! I have to say sorry to you, and I want to thank you for not care, this is the ...... I want to thank you."
"No, I was rude that day, but I'm not sorry, sometimes, real acquaintances, start with misunderstandings, like Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth. ”
Ye Wei looked at her, looked at the night reflected in the floor-to-ceiling glass window behind her, and drank watermelon juice comfortably.
Lily burst out laughing, "Please, you're not Mr. Darcy, you should be ......" she bit her straw and drank juice as she thought, "Heathcliff!
"I have a few ex-girlfriends, but I haven't been abandoned like Heathcliff......" Ye Wei scratched his forehead, trying to think about his ex-girlfriends, their appearances were blurred.
Suddenly, under the table, Lily reached over with one foot and kicked him in the calf, and he couldn't help but groan, "Why did you kick me?"
"Do I have it?" Lily rolled her eyes, a little unhappy, although they are not boyfriend and girlfriend, but they felt so good just now, why do you say ex-girlfriend, it's really hateful...... Wait, it seems like she said it first? Why, is it a temptation? Isn't it...... Her mind was in turmoil......
"It was a long, long time ago, and I was lonely when the girls around me thought football was a sissy sport. Ye Wei looked at her, and suddenly a strange expression floated: "Haven't you been in love in kindergarten and elementary school?
"I don't sue you. ”
Ye Wei looked at her cute appearance that seemed to be angry, shrugged her shoulders, and said: "Actually, I want to say that there is a kind of person who will make you know yourself better, and you don't know that you can be like that until you meet someone." And, I like Heathcliff, he's just hurt too deeply. ”
"Yes...... Me too, I agree......" Lily listened and nodded, she already felt this way, knowing him, she ......
"So you say I'm Heathcliff, and you like Heathcliff too, so you like me, right?"
"You can't be serious for a while!" Lily kicked again.
"Why are you kicking me again?"
"Do I have one?"
