The night in London flows outside the car window, like a winding river. The cold and bleak early autumn scenery passes through the simple buildings, historical streets and Misty drizzle, revealing a heavy and elegant atmosphere. The precipitation of years gives this city a distinctive flavor.
Notting Hill's bustle and bustle are now quiet. There are not even many people on the streets. It's like escaping from the noisy countryside of the city.
Philip accurately parked the car at the side of the road, and then turned off the engine. The quiet warm air was slowly surging in the car. He looked at lanli and Matthew in the back seat through the rear-view mirror. After a moment of silence, he still didn't say anything. He got out of the car, then went around to the side of the road and opened the door.
First Matthew, then Langley.
Philip closes the car door, opens the back compartment, takes out the luggage and walks behind him. They stood at the door, waiting for Matthew to take out the key from his briefcase. The quiet silence was still surging, with a trace of depression in the calm, which made the air cooler in the drizzling night.
Matthew opens the sky blue door on the first floor. Philip takes his luggage in, puts it against the door, and then turns away. However, when he came to the door, he could not help but stop. He turned around again and looked at Lan Li.
Lanli didn't leave. He didn't even take off his windbreaker. He had a light smile on his face, as if he had expected that he would turn around. This makes Philip's stuffy brow take a trace of warmth, "master Langley, are you ok?"
It's not just a normal greeting. Langley knows that Philip is asking, how is he in the past year and a half; The pursuit of dreams, things are going well; After returning to London, is he still used to it; Away from the shackles of the family, wandering outside, everything ok?
"I'm fine. Philip Lan Li nodded with a smile, and the warm current in his heart made the smile take on a warm color.
Philip looked at blue Li quietly. At last, he didn't say anything. He just showed a shallow smile, bowed politely to blue Li, and then nodded to Matthew. Then he turned around and left without any stop. In a short time, the sound of the engine came back from outside the door panel, gradually moving away.
After 18 months, I came home again. What they care about is not his dream, his achievements, his struggle, his efforts, but whether he is decent, whether he has maintained the continuity of the nobility, whether he has tarnished the reputation of the family. They clearly draw a line to separate the two sides in two different worlds, It's like two spaces to isolate the source of infectious diseases.
No angry confrontation, no angry roar, no violent collision, everything is suppressed under the delicate and noble mask, cold and piercing, even the quarrel is so calm.
The only one who really cares about him is Philip.
Ironically, as housekeepers, the first education they received was to be introverted. They should not pay attention to the gossip, show their heart easily, and put too much emotion into it, because they must be objective enough.
Turning around, lanli saw Matthew's worried look. There was a trace of bitterness between his eyebrows, which was a trace of temperature for the cold and alienated temperament. He asked hesitantly, "are you ok?"
The meaning of the same problem is different. Blue Li couldn't help laughing, turned around, and Matthew walked forward, took off his coat and hung it on the hanger beside him. "It's very good, it can't be better." This is not the first time for him to face the indifference of his family. "This time I came here to work, I need to focus on my 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 there now. Do you want me to call a taxi for you?" Matthew make complaints about it.
If Lan Li lives in a hotel, it will be really lively. Within two hours, it is estimated that the whole upper class will have a lot of discussions. Even some guys who are willing to discuss gossip and watch dog blood will go to the hotel to encircle Lan Li.
Blue Li glanced at Matthew and retorted lightly, "or do you plan to live in Knightsbridge, and leave me the key here?"
This appearance is to occupy the nest and drive the master out. Matthew shook his head speechless. "Don't worry, I won't let George in even if he shows up at the door downstairs."
"Oh, no, if he shows up, you'd better let him in. Otherwise, the scandal will be lively for at least two months. At that time, you will have to bear a lot of fire. " Blue Li's words made Matthew laugh“ By the way, do you remember Andre Hamilton? I met him not long ago in France and exchanged business cards again. The last time I saw him in the social circle, it was like last century. "
"Andre? Of course, he is now the only Casanova in London, and many noble girls are attracted by him. There should be a lot of families who want to marry him at parties this Christmas season. "
"Hey, what's the point? He is also wandering, I am also wandering, why did he become a great love saint? And I became Don Quixote? "
"Probably because he is more handsome than you?"
"Well, I can't deny that."
……
After living in New York for such a long time, lanli thought that he had gradually adapted to the life of a foreign country. After all, strictly speaking, he was not a Londoner, his soul was Chinese, and he had lived in that land for 32 years; Comparatively speaking, every day of this life is to live in a foreign country.
But when he returned to London, he realized that this rainy, cold, ancient and heavy city was still an indispensable part of his life. The influence it brings is far beyond one's imagination. Every cell of the body is awakened again, as if it has never left.
With no difficulty, Langley adapted to the terrible weather in London, which is a good thing for the next performance.
But for Drake, he was not so lucky. On the first day of his arrival in London, he was hit by the cold and rainy air and suffered from a bad cold. Not only was he hoarse and almost speechless, but the sound of blowing his nose on the set every day was rolling, which was like an out of tune symphony.
Fortunately, although his nose is blocked and his throat is red and swollen, Drake's directing state is not seriously affected. His brain is still awake enough, and the filming of the crew is still in accordance with the expected rhythm; At the same time, two native britons, lenley and felicity, are still in a hot state of performance, and the whole cast has entered a state of high-speed operation.
I don't know why - maybe it's because when she was in Los Angeles, Felicity watched the shooting of lenley and Jennifer, diluting the vague and ambiguous spark; Maybe it's because after he returned to London, he didn't seem to have any influence on the surface, but he still felt the impact from his family in his heart
But the result is that the bond between the two people seems to be cut off, the pulsating hormone breath disappears quietly, and the wanton eruption of the spark is also gradually evaporating, just like the two people who were walking side by side, with the same pace, gesture and speed, which is amazing and really pleasing to the eye; But all of a sudden, this fluency no longer exists. It's not that someone has accelerated, but that the frequency, rhythm and amplitude of the pace seem to have changed a little, so that the synchronization state is disrupted. The two people are still walking side by side, but the visual effect is still confused.
That's good for "crazy love.".
Anna stayed in London to start her new life, but she couldn't suppress the pain of Acacia and completely collapsed on the phone; So Jacob, desperate to leave everything in Los Angeles, flew across the Atlantic Ocean and came to London to reunite with Anna. However, Jacob found himself an outsider, and the pace of the two people was no longer on the same channel.
This kind of feeling can't be expressed in words, but it's getting farther and farther between the eyebrows and eyes; This kind of love, but watching each other growing distance feeling; This kind of struggling, but helpless feeling... Was originally the most difficult part of the "crazy love" script. For felicity and Langley, this is the most challenging part of the performance. There are no lines and they are totally supported by the performance.
But I didn't expect that they could easily interpret this kind of feeling, especially that kind of boring predicament - they both 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 kind of confusion and blankness is displayed incisively and vividly in every move, and even the moment of eye exchange fills in the blank of the script, Every play is a challenge, but every play is wonderful. It really makes the performance a kind of enjoyment!
Drake, who suffered from a cold, could hardly be more excited. Even though his throat was so swollen that he could hardly make a sound, he could not help dancing and celebrating, and tried his best to show his respect to the two actors.
In just five days, "crazy love" finished 80% of the shooting, but the crew still couldn't relax easily, because they still had an important play that was never filmed. This play was too important. Drake was worried that his state was bad and he couldn't control it, so he just filmed the next few plays in advance, I hope my cold can be relieved, and then I will go into shooting.
However, even if they continue to retreat, they will retreat for one or two days at most, because they don't have much time and money. What's more, they have to go back to Los Angeles to finish the final shooting.
After all, the shooting of the main play came.
