Chapter 2026

Edith is not a pure professional war correspondent. She hardly ventured to the front line, but followed the peacekeeping forces or the Red Cross to complete the shooting in the rear. For example, when Sudan ended the seven-year chaos, Edith took some photos of post-war reconstruction in the local area, showing the life of the local people. Edith's strong point is to capture everyone's look, and then tell those hidden stories, rather than record the human nature under the fire.

However, even in the rear, this is still not a "safe" job. After all, Edith still has to go to those areas left behind by chaos and conflict. Maybe there are mines hidden on the road, maybe hostile forces are injured in the attack, maybe dangerous buildings collapse - even if friendly and hostile forces have reached a consensus, There is no attack on the Red Cross and war reporters, but anything can happen in a powder keg.

The crises hidden in our daily life can not be prevented, which is far from a peaceful living environment.

This is a job full of challenges and reality. At the same time, it is also a work of great significance to society and the world. This is often the case with everyone. If you hear other people's children go to the front line, you will express admiration in your eyes and words; But if you are your family and friends, your attitude is totally different. Even if you know that this is the right thing, you still can't treat it calmly.

Although lanli has never talked to Edith face to face about her work, he knows that this is her belief and persistence. She always insists on recording the suffering and pain with her own lens, hoping that more people will realize the importance of peace and the happiness they have. Despite her weak strength, Edith also insists on it, This is her life, her dream.

"It seems that you are serious about this relationship." Lan Li said in a voice. Her first reaction surprised Edith a little and threw her eyes in confusion. Lan Li shrugged, "otherwise, you don't have to tell him; In other words, even if you tell him, you don't need to ask for his consent. Even if you have a relationship, you are an independent individual. You said it in the hope of winning his support. "

Edith was a little stunned, without affirmation or negation.

Arthur raised his eyebrows. "I don't know if his negation means that he really cares too much about you. But shouldn't he love everything about you, including your shortcomings and your dreams? "

"Wow, Arthur, I can't see you're a hopeless romantic." Lan Li couldn't help laughing

Arthur spread out his hands. "Hey, I'm not the focus right now, OK?"

Looking at the coming and going of lanli and Arthur, Edith couldn't help laughing and relaxed a little.

After laughing, Edith also reflected that deep in her heart, she still hopes to get Chris's support: on the one hand, her hesitation comes from Chris's opposition, which makes her feel disappointed; On the other hand, she thinks seriously whether she should choose to stay for Chris - but she doesn't want to. This kind of contradictory struggle makes her eager for Chris to understand, which just shows that the fetters between her and Chris have exceeded her imagination.

This idea makes Edith a little flustered. She is still not used to this kind of self, and even rejects such indecisive and indecisive self. This is what she used to hate most.

"I think you should go." Langley looks at Edith again.

Arthur nodded in agreement. "I think you should go, too." Aware of Edith's slightly moving eyes, Arthur added, "because I know that even if we oppose, you will still go. So, it's better to support you, at least to keep my perfect image; It's just that you'd better come back intact, or you may want to take away the style of Langley and become a hot topic in London. "

Serious joke, Arthur is also good at this, Edith rolled a big white eye, and then turned to look at lenley, "do you think so?"

Blue Li pursed the corners of his mouth, didn't say much, just simply said, "fight for it, that's you."

Everyone has his own persistence and belief, which leads to different choices. Maybe others can't understand, then support is enough.

Lanli is like this. Along the way, he has made brilliant achievements, but more importantly, his friends have never left, just like the night after last year's victory in egot - standing on the top, and what he urgently needs in his heart is to find the figure walking side by side.

Similarly, Matthew is the same. Langley hopes that he can continue to be a royal lawyer instead of being tied up in the office of Sisyphus pictures; Edith is the same. Langley hopes that she can enjoy every moment of her life, instead of staying in Hollywood's vanity fair cage like a canary.

Only when they fight for their own persistence and belief, they are the most real themselves.

If Edith really chose to stay, she would regret it. She would blame Chris and herself; The most terrible thing is that Edith is no longer Edith. Her character and edges are gradually smoothed out in love, becoming another person, and finally losing herself.

In a short sentence, Edith immediately felt the deep meaning of it, and her eyes reddened slightly.

Arthur immediately protested, "Hey! Hello, Hello! I just said some touching words, you stare at me; Now Lan Li said it dryly, and you were moved. Is this discrimination too exaggerated? "

Edith grabbed the sofa pillow beside her and threw it at Arthur.

Blue Li also gloated to follow down the well, "Arthur, we just said, you are not suitable for acting, such a difficult work, good things to me."

Arthur shrunk his mouth and his face was full of depression.

Lenley looked at Edith again, "Chris needs to realize that this is the real you. If he loves you, he needs to accept all of you, even though it's very, very difficult; But if he can't accept it, it's his business and he can make a choice of his own. "

"What if he chooses to leave me?" Edith also showed a little uneasy about gain and loss. Her eyes were a little blank. It can be seen that she really likes Chris.

"That's his loss. He missed the best woman in the world." Arthur added.

Both lenley and Edith cast their eyes at Arthur. Arthur mouthed lenley and said, "is that exaggeration?" Is this "the best in the world" a little too much?

Blue Li gently jaw head.

Arthur looked at Edith quickly. "At least I think so. Seriously

Edith chuckled. She looked at Arthur and then at Langley. She laughed happily. "Do you think ALF would be particularly envious if she knew?"

"Well... I doubt it."

"I don't think so."

"She may feel too dramatic."

"She should just drop out."

Langley and Arthur expressed similar meaning with each other, and then the three people looked at each other, and their smiles flowed from the bottom of their eyes.

Arthur and Edith didn't stay much longer because Langley still needed a rest. Standing on the porch, Edith stopped and asked, slightly worried, "are you all right, Langley?"

It's not only physical health, but also psychological pressure. Although they didn't directly point out what happened in Mordor this time, the news media have reported that lanli is now standing on the cusp of the storm. If he is too popular, he may also create more hardships. Ordinary people can't understand the pain of loneliness and loneliness, and even they can't help it.

The corner of blue Li's mouth gently pulled, "don't worry, at least I'm better than you.". Are you sure? Are you still eager to go into the conflict prone battlefield? " In fact, lanli is also worried, but he chooses to respect Edith, just as Edith respects him.

Edith didn't answer right away, but thought about it seriously. "Do you know, Langley? When I stand on that land and smell the smell of sulfur and smoke, I will know that I am still alive and I still need to exist for them. " Then Edith looked up into lenley's eyes. "It's like you're on stage."

Lan Li Zhan showed a big smile, "well. Then do it. "

Arthur and Edith left one after another. Next, they will stay in Honolulu for another two days, while Langley needs to put in the shooting and cannot be entertained; However, they are all adults and can take care of themselves. The rest is not what lanli needs to worry about.

He turned around, went back to the room, sat down heavily, relaxed completely, threw himself into the pillow of the sofa, relaxed his muscles, and then closed his eyes firmly. During this period, the dual pressure of body and spirit really made him feel tired.

For a long time, it seemed that he was about to enter the dream, but lanli opened his eyes again and found his mobile phone on the coffee table next to him. When he opened it, he could see a message from Matthew:

"Do you want me to come?"

Matthew can't understand Langley's health any more - Nathan interrupts him every once in a while, even if Matthew wants to pretend he doesn't know. At the same time, recently, Rooney has also invested in the shooting of new works, and is busy. They can only communicate by phone and text messages. Rooney wants to come to Honolulu, but she is also weak.

But Matthew sent the message because he learned about Elizabeth's blank postcard, even before Arthur and Edith.

This text message was sent before Arthur and Edith appeared, but lanli didn't know how to reply. At this time, he calmed down and read it carefully again before sending a reply.

"I decided to refuse."

After a while, Matthew's reply came, "OK. I'm with you. "

Lan Li didn't reply any more. He put his mobile phone aside and stretched out a lot. Then he lay on the sofa and fell asleep.
