Edith unconsciously rotates the champagne glass in her hand and is quietly listening to the conversation next to her, but obviously her attention has quietly drifted to other places; there are no special eyes, movements or expressions, but can be clearly felt She was absent-minded and restless.

Such Edith, under the smoky makeup of the punk girl, revealed a trace of fragility.

This made Lan Li's eyes a brisk smile, "You said, should I be merciful?"

"Will you?" Matthew asked rhetorically without any hesitation.

As they spoke, Chris’ footsteps came before them, "Hey! How do you feel tonight?" Chris greeted as briskly as possible, but both Lanly and Matthew just nodded slightly. That's it, this suddenly made Chris panic a little, and he realized that his situation was really not favorable.

Originally, Chris was still worried. Standing by himself and the other party sitting down would make him seem too high and arrogant. But the actual situation is that the other party is as stable as the mountain and he is embarrassed. Instead, he is like being trained in the principal's office in high school. The scene was average, and Chris was at a disadvantage instantly.

Looking back, Chris dragged a low sofa over and sat down directly opposite Renly and Matthew.

"You should have heard that I am not a friendly person, am I?" Lan Li took the initiative to speak, but the first sentence made Chris feel uneasy.

"No, of course not." Reflexively, Chris waved his hand again and again, denying it with courtesy and greetings on social occasions.

Lan Li didn’t buy it at all. Before Chris made any further polite remarks, he said in advance, “I’m serious.” This immediately made Chris feel confused, not knowing what to do, but Lan Li But he still didn't intend to let it go easily, and continued to ridicule aggressively, "It's not a good sign that I can't speak so easily."

"I'm working hard! I, I'm working hard." Chris said eagerly, and then he reacted a little later. Lan Li's mouth was smiling, but his seemingly serious words revealed a ridicule, so... in the end. what's going on?

Chris just froze in place, not knowing the so-called.

Lan Li turned his head and looked at Matthew, "Am I really so fierce? You see, he is too scared to speak."

Matthew shrugged slightly, "You haven't taken the full form yet."

"Perfect form? What do you think I am? Fire-breathing dragon?" Lan Li frowned slightly.

Matthew was not worried at all, "No, Pikachu."

Lan Li rolled his eyes and said, "I can't believe your taste. You have actually started watching children's animations."

This time, Matthew didn't refute any more, but snarled in the direction where Chris was. "He is about to explode, are you sure it doesn't matter? Will Edith ask you to make a claim?"

Lan Li said lightly, "It doesn't matter, this one is very much in Hollywood, there is no one and there is another one. There are many more for Chris alone, and Edith can choose slowly at that time. To be honest, I I think Hemsworth should be quite suitable for Edith, the same taste."

"What's the smell?" Matthew asked.

Lan Li pondered for a moment, "Smell of peach."

Matthew thought about it for a moment, and shook his head solemnly, "No, I don't think these two are the same, or I can change to another Chris."

"Not good!" Chris finally found his voice and shouted loudly.

He is completely at a loss now. Lanly and Matthew talked back and forth, the speed and frequency were really too fast, there was no room for intervention at all, he just became more and more anxious, more and more restless, and the content of the conversation It's too horrible--

Not only the content, but also they treat all Hollywood actors as objects in an understatement. The arrogance and coldness that burst out of the bones really show the class gap, which is really chilling.

What is contempt and contempt?

It is not cursing and contempt, not disdain and discrimination, but indifference, just like scorning ants, it has never been put in the eyes. For the nobles of the upper class, Hollywood actors are an object, no more.

Not only Chris, but also Renly himself. From the past to the present, even at the dinner not long ago, Renly still has not been able to completely break the fixed concept of the entire aristocratic class. That is a kind of three viewpoints formed in the bones, which truly imprinted class differences deeply in the depths of one's soul, revealing every move and every action.

It's just that Lan Li has won a place with his own strength, and he is crushing the prejudices that have lasted for centuries little by little.

And Chris? He doesn't even count as a beginner.

What's more, Lanly and Matthew are consciously firing on fire today, and Chris is even more unbearable.

Then you can see Chris take a big breath, force himself to straighten his waist, and do his best to show confidence and perseverance, "No, I think I am the best one for Edith."

"Why?" In the face of Chris' excitement and excitement, Lan Li still looked calm and calm. It was too calm and calm, and the sharp contrast of mood swings made Chris feel more embarrassed.

Matthew, who was sitting next to him, added, “Don’t say anything like'I love her'. This is the cheapest letter of commitment in the world.”

Love is very important. No one can deny it.

But besides love, there are other laws of operation in this world. Benefits, status, glory, inheritance and the overall situation cannot be replaced or measured. When necessary, love is a bargaining chip for sacrifice, not for use. To create the tools of the future. In the eyes of idealists, this idea is wrong; in the eyes of realists, idealists are stupid.

Nobility is precisely a kind of realist. Because the reality they have is suitable for them. The same is true for Wall Street elites.

Matthew's words are correct in their opinion. For the benefit of the family, the so-called love, the so-called marriage and family affection are all just bargaining chips.

The icy cold bursting from the depths of his soul caused Chris to shudder, and the words that came to his mouth stopped like this.

At this time, he was completely immersed in his thoughts. He could only barely notice that Renly and Matthew had exchanged sights, but could not distinguish the true emotions in their eyes, and finally took a irritable sip of the champagne in his hand. But it didn't work, and I became more dry and dry, "Because...because I love her."

After all, Chris said it, trying to explain it, but found that all the words were pale and powerless, and there was no way to know what to do. In the end, he could only say this sentence, the "cheapest" sentence.

The smile at the corner of Lan Li's mouth rose slightly, "You should know that love is the humblest thing in the face of benefits and glory."

"But it's also the greatest thing." Chris finally found his voice and replied forcefully.

Matthew still has a lukewarm expression on his face, "It seems that in the Vanity Fair of Hollywood, I still found something out of the ordinary. For example, the lines." There are not too many ups and downs, but the cynicism is deep. There is no disguise.

Chris' cheeks suddenly became rosy, choked on himself inexplicably, and began to cough violently.

However, Lan Li did not continue to embarrass Chris. He just smiled and said, "The hero tonight is me, so let's not blur the focus. I feel unhappy now." A joke, as if everything was just a joke just now. , The atmosphere began to relax, but Chris' smile was still a bit stiff, unable to hide perfectly like Renly and Matthew.

"DC has already made a move, how about it, does Marvel have any special plans to deal with it next? The news about you in the media is almost invisible recently." Lan Li changed the atmosphere with a simple word.

To be honest, the conversation just now doesn't even count as shocking education, but Chris can't stand it anymore. It's no wonder that Andre made complaints before. Obviously, Andre knows enough about Chris, or in other words, the same kind of Hollywood boys who are similar to him.

Chris was still a little distracted, and said absently, "I don't know, we should have no plans for the time being~www.novelhall.com~ Don't say as if you have been paying close attention to Marvel news, you have never watched these news. Is it?" There was a voice beside it, Edith.

She couldn't bear it after all.

Lan Li and Matthew exchanged glances, and the expressions of frustration couldn't be more obvious.

Edith caught the change in details in an instant, stared fiercely, and looked at the two people with intimidating eyes, as if threatening: Don't speak! Protest is not allowed! Don't vomit!

Then you can see that both Lan Li and Matthew closed their mouths quietly, and their cunning appearances became more sarcastic, which made Edith even more embarrassed.

A quick exchange of eyes, fleeting, but Chris did not notice at all. He stood up quickly and stood behind Edith with a caring expression. He lowered his voice and said, "Why are you here? Not good, this Do you leave the matter to me? Don't worry about me, I'm fine."

Edith shook her head slightly, "I thought you were over."

Immediately, Edith saw Chris' blank expression on her face, and she understood that Lanly's cheerful smile and expression were actually hinting that the test was over, and deliberately reassure her, so she took the initiative to walk over; But Chris didn't know this, which made Edith's heart sink slightly, and she realized: Chris had not passed the test.

But on the surface, Edith was calm and smiled again, "Don't worry. Neither Lan Li nor Matthew are outsiders."

Edith gestured slightly with her eyes, giving Chris peace of mind.

Then he looked at Lan Li and Matthew again, but heard Lan Li comfortably say, "You should know that we can all hear all the whispers just now, right?"

Lan Li did it on purpose! Damn it!
