Chapter 1273

Beatrice put her hands behind her back, could not help but gently tiptoe, secretly close the distance between the two people.

In the air, you can vaguely smell a dry wood breath, like the oxygen in the forest in the middle of summer and July. The flowing water, dense green trees and golden sunshine crisscross the air. They come in the gentle breeze. They can't help but close their eyes and listen to the natural sound.

In the garden, the light of goose yellow sprinkles down gently, outlines the curve of the chin, and you can see the radian of the corner of the mouth and the raised throat, clean and refreshing; The mellow voice of gurgling flow came from my ears, showing a gentleness quite different from the explosive power of stage performance.

So the heartbeat fell on the eardrum.

"Your grace. Your honor The low cry came, and her ears itched slightly. Then Beatrice noticed her sight on her body, and her heart stopped beating suddenly. After the focus gathered, she saw blue Li's bright eyes, which were as clear as the sky.

"Oh." The radian of the corner of the mouth rose, and a warm smile flowed slowly from the bottom of the eyes. "It seems that our conversation is too boring, and someone was distracted unexpectedly."

With harmless banter, Beatrice's cheek was slightly hot, and she covered up her embarrassment and confusion with a frank and exaggerated laugh, "don't pay attention to me. I always like to wander, which is not a good habit. Obviously, I'm being rude again today. "

After returning to her senses, Beatrice noticed the subtle changes in the atmosphere.

George and Elizabeth stand on the side of lanli's body, not too close, not too distant, not too close, but highlight the difference between family and friends. Both of them look at lanli with a happy smile, as if this is the pride of the family, but the muscle on one side of the arm is slightly tense, revealing a trace of embarrassment and strangeness.

They are all smart people, and they are all professionals.

It is well known that the relationship between the hall family is far from the harmony and closeness on the surface; But what I saw with my own eyes revealed a faint strangeness.

Between William's parents, Charles and Diana, they hate each other, which is a stronger emotion; However, there is no emotion between the hall couple and Lan Li. It is not love or hate, but pure maintenance of interests. Between the eyebrows and eyes revealed a touch of cold and cold.

Beatrice's vision was a little dim, and her heart showed a sense of sadness and sadness.

"We just mentioned that you like drama very much? Before that, I went to Almeida theater to watch our performance. Unfortunately, we didn't meet at that time. Will you attend this anniversary? " Langley didn't seem to notice Beatrice's look. He asked gentlemanly.

Beatrice's heart warmed slightly.

She realized that instead of deliberately avoiding the previous miss, Lan Li took the initiative to put it forward, but did not rudely and directly expose the lady's shyness. Instead, she returned to the "tragic world" repertoire. A small entry point can show that she was careful and considerate.

But Elizabeth, who was standing beside her, was nervous, for fear that lanli might expose their mask. It was only after lanli's voice fell that Elizabeth's vision relaxed. On the surface, there are no flaws; But careful observation can always capture clues.

"Yes, of course I will." Beatrice said happily that she doesn't like those intrigues, but it doesn't mean she's not good at them, just that she doesn't need them. "In fact, I like your performance very much. Not long ago, when my father talked with me, he mentioned that he regretfully missed the previous performance. Obviously, he is behind the trend now. Even at family gatherings, "he said

Family Party. This is the key word, Beatrice is suggesting that in their family gathering, the evaluation of Langley is also positive.

George and Elizabeth, standing aside, did not miss the meaning of this sentence.

"Ha. I believe it's polite, but thank you all the same In fact, I think the mystery of late night puppies is a masterpiece. If you have a chance, please be sure to watch it. I talked to Luke not long ago. He's an admirable actor

"Have you seen that play, too? I've seen it, too! " Beatrice's whole face soared, but then she realized her gaffe and sipped shyly. "Look, I'm always so bold. I think I'd better avoid talking as much as possible. That's the right choice. "

"Then you may like the atmosphere of the theatre. We always welcome any voice, even boos and abuse. " Lanli's witty and humorous reply triggered laughter again. This time, even Kate couldn't help laughing.

Standing beside, Elizabeth's muscles were strained to the extreme. George is no better.

Every second after the meeting was a torment, like a burning fire, which tormented their nerves little by little, but they could not relax at all, for fear that a little negligence might completely embarrass them

When will he expose their masks? When will he mention their opposition? When will he emphasize that all his achievements have nothing to do with the hall family? When will he satirize the "Hamlet" he missed? When will he ridicule their stubbornness and conservatism? When will he laugh at their embarrassment? When will he detonate the bomb?

All the questions and worries are like the lead hanging on a spider's silk, falling slowly, shaking and swinging, but never falling.

What's more, all the eyes in the whole garden were looking at them as if they had nothing. There are three distinguished guests as the royal family, Richard as the host, and Lan Li as the focus... Almost no one in the audience can calm down, and their attention is projected one after another.

The speculations and banter between the eyes are destroying their armor bit by bit.

They used to turn a blind eye, they used to shut up, they used to refuse thousands of miles; They are now stealthy, they are now unlimited scenery, they are now hypocritical and arrogant. All of them seemed to be displayed in public, and the shame of red fruit completely drowned them, almost suffocating them.

But, No.

Nothing there? Calm and calm.

Lan Li didn't mention a word, even a look or an action, as if nothing had happened.

This kind of light, but like a loud slap in the face, hard to throw in George and Elizabeth's face. The things they care about, value and maintain are not worth mentioning at all in Lan Li's hands; Their anxiety, nervousness and vigilance were more like a joke in front of lanli's calmness.

George became agitated.

Elizabeth could feel it. She lifted her glass, pretended to drink, glanced at George, and whispered, "look, every time Sebastian mentions drama, you always do. You like Shakespeare, but it's time to learn to accept new things. Maybe you can find new hobbies. "

An excuse to cover up George's mood fluctuations, but also issued a warning, but also quietly explained their previous attitude towards blue. Three carves with one arrow. In addition, she also used the middle name hulanli, which implied the intimate identity within the family.

What's more, Elizabeth did it very secretly, without raising her voice or taking it seriously. If other people happen to hear it, it's great; But the others didn't hear, and she didn't care.

This is the way to achieve better results - because she knows that everyone present is a master of counting, and her ears are always alert.

George was aware of his impatience at this time, he also showed a smile, politely perfunctory two words, to cover up his anomaly, but the impatience in his heart began to surge again.

The more calm lanli was, the more embarrassed they were; The more leisurely lanli was, the more shameful they were.

And they can't show it yet.

"Damn it." George swore a curse from the bottom of his heart. His fingertips closed up gently. His wrist muscles suddenly tightened and relaxed, revealing his true feelings.

……

At this moment, two figures are standing on the balcony of the garden, overlooking the biggest bustle of the evening from a distance.

"I'll tell you, there must be no action from Langley now. He just needs to be here, which is the biggest torture for George and Elizabeth. Lanli won't take the initiative. "

"I have no objection to your opinion. I'm just saying that Langley won't care. He didn't want to humiliate George and Elizabeth. If it hadn't been for the repeated invitation from the London theatre society, Langley would not have been here tonight. "

"... I believe you. But George and Elizabeth will certainly think that all this is the plan of Langley

"If lenley really planned, then their punishment would not be so simple. What's your opinion? Sir Arthur

"..." Arthur hall, who was solemnly named, shivered and suddenly became alert. "You say, can we see us when we stand here? I always feel that lanli just looked at this place

"God, no!" Edith, who was standing next to him, was also nervous, and then muttered, "we've all stood so far away that Langley can't find out. Jesus Christ, I just want to see the excitement, can't I? Sneak back to London, sneak to dinner, and now sneak to watch? "

"I think it's good to watch in the dark." Arthur calmed down and said with a smile, "unfortunately, Alf still doesn't want to wade in the muddy water today."

Edith shrugged and didn't retort. "Langley may not know we're here, but Matthew can't. Do you think Matthew will tell Langley? "

"Well." Arthur was suddenly choked.

……

George raised his chin slightly, pretending to breathe fresh air, but looked around quietly: why hasn't Viscount Beaufort appeared yet?
