2213 wanton growth

"Thanks."

There are only two short words on the text message to form a phrase, and even the punctuation marks are regular periods, and there seems to be no emotions.

But a satisfied smile appeared on Roman Abramovich's face, which made Dasha Jukeva, who was sitting next to her, look curious, "What did he say?"

"Thank you." Roman replied, Dasha was covered in question marks and asked "what" in a conditioned manner. She didn't understand why Roman suddenly thanked her, which made Roman chuckle. It was obvious that he was in a very happy mood. "Thank you, Lanli's text message only said this."

Dasha was stunned, "This is the only sentence? I don't understand."

Roman had no intention of continuing to explain, "This sentence is enough."

Renly Hall, that is a hereditary nobleman. Don’t think about their flattery and brag about the way they walk their horses. Otherwise, their dignity and pride will be worthless.

What's more, think of Renli's reputation and prestige in recent years. His awesomeness and alienation have never changed, which makes the weight of a "thank you" particularly different.

Roman is a businessman, a shrewd businessman. He knows clearly how to invest. Some objects, exchange of interests is the best choice; while some objects, friendship and human relationships are far higher than interests. Only by making the right choice for the right object can “cooperation” be completed.

"Tomorrow, you can just send a bouquet of flowers to Princes Garden to express your condolences, no need to call." Roman gave all these social trivial matters to Dasha.

Dasha nodded and understood, "Do you need to invite them to come and have dinner together? I can hold a welcome party to welcome Edith's return."

"No." Roman shook his head. The purpose of the welcome banquet was too strong, but instead seemed hungry. "Wait for a while." He thought seriously for a moment, "Well, wait for a while."

Dasha didn't ask too much about the bottom line, but assumed that Edith might need to have a good rest and expressed her understanding of Roman's head, and that's the end of the topic.

...

When Arthur arrived at Princes Garden, he saw the bouquet of flowers placed in the entrance hall at a glance. The exquisite and clever combination revealed a hint of warmth in the haze of the severe cold winter, making the whole room brighter. "Is it Eaton here?" In addition, Arthur could not imagine who would send flowers.

Philip took the coat from Arthur and whispered, "Mr. Abramovich."

Arthur paused for a moment, then he suddenly realized that he was lightly looking at his head, "He is indeed a smart man." He did not continue to ask too much, "Did you tell me when the specific time will arrive? Why don't we go over and pick us up?"

"Because I returned by cargo plane, I landed directly at the military airport." Philip simply replied, "We have contacted and sent a special vehicle to take charge of picking up and dropping off. They should have passed by Chelsea now."

"Chelsea? Isn't that possible to arrive at any time?" Arthur walked towards the study, but saw the whole room in a quiet and calm look. "Didn't you say you were going to welcome the party? Why are you all like this? It also looks too quiet, right? Are you sure I remember the time wrong?"

"You should indeed pray, preferably not today. Your beard is simply a disaster. I think Edith may not be able to accept your appearance." Andre shook his head with disgust. The key is that Arthur's sloppy beard was that Arthur did not take care of it. His beard, which grew wildly and wildly, had strong attack power, almost submerged Arthur's handsome facial features, making people retreat.

Arthur also realized that his misconduct was indeed necessary for the nobles to be in place, but he still expressed his dissatisfaction, "Hey, recently, I have been so busy that I can fall asleep even when I stand, just like a cute foal, and I really don't have time."

In addition to Renli, Arthur was also running around. Even though his strength was small, he was doing his best to find out about Edith. Arthur even had the idea of ​​going directly to Turkey, but they were laymen after all, and even if they arrived in the local area, they were just causing trouble.

Although he never said that, Arthur was always suffering from the torture deep in his heart. He kept himself busy and didn't even dare to close his eyes easily, fearing that his little bit of laziness would probably miss the news about Edith forever, and he would regret it for the rest of his life.

The beard grew wildly like this.

But now that he realized that he was about to see Edith, Arthur became a little embarrassed, his eyes fell on Renli, and he hurriedly pulled him into the water, "Look, the same is true for Renli, and he has no time to take care of his beard." As he said that, Arthur was shocked and exclaimed, "Linli, you really look like you are thirty years old now."

Lan Li didn't raise her eyes at all and responded lightly, "I don't know, you care about age."

"..." Arthur was choked directly, then turned to look at Andre and Eton next to him, and even Matthew was glared at him, "What's wrong? This is not the first time you've known Lan Li." He quietly shifted the blame to Lan Li: The reason why he was so embarrassed was because Lan Li was too evil, not that he was too cowardly.

Then Matthew said quietly, "That's because we only saw this scene for the first time today."

Arthur curled his lips and glared at Matthew, with a grievance on his face, "I just didn't take care of my beard."

Matthew also made a serious gesture and said, "We are just kidding."

The atmosphere in the entire study suddenly became relaxed.

Whether it is Arthur, Matthew, and Andre, they are actually consciously energizing the atmosphere.

Although I already know Edith's safety and know that Edith is on the way back, the uneasy mood is still difficult to control. The closer it is to Edith's return, the more tense the mood becomes. I can't tell whether it is excitement, nervousness, excitement, anxiety or something, and even a little fear is generated.

They all need to relieve their emotions.

Today's Prince Garden is a bit lively. In addition to Renli and others, four Edith's friends were also invited to welcome Edith's return, including a middle-level management official of the Red Cross and an editor-in-chief of the Times. In addition to the title of "Hall", Edith, like Renli, also used her abilities to open up the situation and made many important and important friends.

Of course, there is Chris Evans.

To be honest, Chris must admit that he was a little surprised and was wrong. It should be said that he was very, very surprised that Renli actually called and invited him to Princes Garden in person.

From the initial meeting, he and Lanli seemed to have missed a good start. After that, Lanli's alienation and strength have never changed. He has always built a high wall between the two and never showed signs of opening his heart. Especially in this accident, Chris and Lanli have many differences in their ideas, and they also have many differences in their way of looking at things and dealing with problems:

It can even be said to be...tit-for-tat.

Chris was sure that this was not his illusion.

He knew that he had known for a long time that he shouldn't let Edith return to Turkey, he shouldn't let Edith take risks again, he shouldn't let Edith ignore his life... He had advised, quarreled, cold warped, and even shut his mouth with disheartened heart, but he could not stop Edith in the end.

After the accident, all his anger erupted. He told Lan Li, who had unswervingly expressed his opinions in front of Lan Li; but Lan Li turned a deaf ear and even began to condemn him for his excessive concerns and excessive control. The condescending attitude seemed to have already taken control of the overall situation early, but he faced a disastrous consequence, and he could bear the harm, which made Chris unable to suppress his emotions.

So, they broke out in a fierce quarrel.

To be more precise, he vented his anger. He forgot that Renly's strength and Edith's unique respect for Renly, and his mind was occupied by the idea of ​​losing Edith forever, venting all emotions regardless of the consequences; while Renly accepted everything without saying a word.

This made their relationship completely tense.

Chris couldn't help but wonder whether they would be targeting each other endlessly when they met again, fighting with bayonets; or... they would never meet each other again in their lifetime, as if they didn't know each other.

However, those worries and fears, those anxiety and anger made Chris temporarily forget that he was facing the unique "Ranley Hall". After he came back to his senses, things were already done and things could not be saved, but he did not regret it. This was his life with Edith, and he needed to stand up for them; but... after the impulse, Chris gradually calmed down, but gradually realized that he might have done something wrong.

"Love" is indeed selfish. Everyone longs for love to be perfect as they imagined, and also longs for their own object to be together forever, or even to fly into the flames; but at the same time, "love" should also be selfless, because the person you really fall in love should not be the perfect image in your imagination, but the real image in real life, and there should be tolerance and compromise in love.

The reason why Edith is Edith is because of her independence and wantonness, her ostentatiousness and unrulyness. She is definitely not a Barbie doll that anyone can mercy. She has a free soul. This is the object of Chris falling in love at the beginning. He can accept the madness brought by freedom and also needs to learn to accept the dangers that come with it.

Even though he was worried that Edith would not sleep until night, Chris gradually realized that Renly was right and that his selfishness was trying to destroy Edith.

However, the quarrel has broken out, and what he said is the water he poured out. What else can he do?

As a result, Renli took the lead in extending an olive branch.
