"I'm serious. I drove over from New Orleans because I missed you. I just wanted to see your eyes."

Lan Li's low voice twitched gently like a cello, Rooney couldn't help but think of the laziness and sex/sense of the early morning. The curve of the body wrapped in the white sheet was up and down, and she just woke up. The voice was slightly hoarse, and the lazy tone seemed to be like feathers blowing in the ears. I couldn't help but began to blush, and the shyness that made people curl up instantly swept from my toes to the top of my head.

Before she realized it, Rooney closed her eyes. Although she was sure that the relationship was about to reach its first anniversary, the throbbing throbbing was still surging. She had to force herself to open her eyes and try to stare at her. With Lan Li, "Foul, you are a foul!"

"Now there are only two of us, what is called a foul." Lan Li is rarely seen playing tricks, which makes Rooney start to itchy involuntarily.

But this time Rooney didn't look away, but carefully portrayed Lan Li's facial features with her eyes, and the nostalgia deep in her eyes surged slightly, "You're thinner." Rooney felt a little distressed.

Lan Li was originally a lean and strong type, and looked very thin when wearing clothes. Now, Lan Li’s facial lines are getting thinner and thinner. Obviously, this period of time has been hard shooting and psychological suffering. The line of the thin face became tighter.

The corner of Lan Li's mouth raised slightly, "I will try to eat fat. Believe me, I'm really working hard."

Rooney could catch the low faintly revealed in Lan Li's voice, "They are not worth it, you know?"

They, although they were ignorant, but who they were referring to, both Renly and Rooney knew well.

"Yeah. I know." Lan Li said softly, but this time, he did not continue to cover up, and a shallow arc of smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. "But even if I know, some things are still that simple after all. It seems , I am still a mortal after all."

Rooney chuckled lightly, "Fortunately, if you are not, I will not be able to accompany you. Don’t you know how much effort I have taken to stand by your side without appearing as small as possible? "Rooney wrinkled her nose and narrowed her eyes, and said exaggeratedly, "Really very, very hard! Sometimes, you can let me know that you are not so perfect, do you know how happy I am?"

The funny and relaxed tone made Lan Li's smile brighter.

After the funny, Rooney continued, "Len Li, we are also allowed to hate them." They are equal to their parents.

Lan Li's smile still hung at the corner of his mouth, but there was a little sadness in his eyes, "I know." Even so, the weight of this sentence weighed heavily on his heart, making the whole person relax. "By the way, after Toronto, I will return to London. Arthur arranged a charity auction. Would you like to attend?"

Charity auction!

Although Lan Li did not explain in detail, Rooney immediately understood that it was the occasion when Lan Li announced his return to London, and it was also the clarion call for Lan Li to officially declare war.

Willing to invite Rooney to attend, which also means that she will make her official debut for the first time. No matter whether she is attending as Renly’s female companion or not, Rooney will officially face Lanly’s family. At least, she can see Arthur, and possibly also There are Edith and Elf, and even George and Elizabeth.

Taking a long breath, Rooney's expression was a little nervous.

Lan Li couldn't help but chuckle, which made Rooney protested, "I'm fine, I'm really fine, but I'm not used to it. You know, the hereditary aristocrats in London always look down on us upstarts. ."

"So, this time you are Jack, am I Ruth?" Rooney was slightly stunned by Lan Li's interpretation, and then she couldn't help clapping her hands and laughing, she couldn't stop at all.

Looking at Lan Li, who was calm and calm, Rooney knew that, in fact, there was still some turbulence in his heart. She needed to steadily accompany him, "Do you need me to donate any auction items? I mean, in a private name. In addition, I can also call some friends to participate in auctions in London. You know, everyone always hopes to contribute to charity."

Rooney also knows the meaning of charity auctions.

On the surface, it is an auction held for charity, but in fact it is a place for the elites and the upper class to show their connections.

For example, Lan Li has invited guests that no one else can invite; Lan Li has obtained auction collections that no one else can get. This is soft power. For another example, it is impossible for a person at the level of Prince William to attend a charity auction casually—because the royal family cannot squander expenses at will, all expenditures must be reported, but they attended the blue gift auction. This is the irreplaceable glory.

In other words, holding a charity auction in the name of Lanli, the quality of the guests attending, the value of the auctioned items, the total amount of the transaction... and so on, all of which are prestige other than money. This is also the ladies of the upper class. Don’t underestimate the power of women in the composition of the family. They are often able to create value for their husbands that money cannot measure, which indirectly proves the principle of “sweeping the world without sweeping a house”.

Rooney not only attended the charity auction by herself, but also invited her friends in her life circle to attend together, so the weight is very important——

Don't forget, Rooney is backed by the family of the owners of the Pittsburgh Steelers and the New York Giants, two of the world's most valuable teams. The connections of the Rooney family far surpassed the ability of George Hall, the down-and-out hereditary baron, and even Lan Li, who was rooted in Eton College, could not be matched.

"Are you sure?" Lan Li asked, because he himself knew clearly that using family connections is a very annoying and very tossing thing. The real thing is to move the whole body. When a person knows it, in a blink of an eye The whole family knew it up and down, and then they had to accept all kinds of interrogation and torture, endless.

Rooney immediately understood, "Don’t worry, I still have some friends. My family relationship is very complicated, but compared to you, it’s already simple, and we don’t usually interfere with each other’s lives. , Because the family members are really too complicated and too many. I probably never told you, my father has twelve brothers and sisters on his side. Trust me, the last thing we want to interfere with is each other’s lives.

twelve.

Lan Li pursed her mouth and showed a meaningful expression, which made Rooney laugh happily, "Now what should be asked is, are you sure? If there is a wedding, the scene should be very spectacular."

"Wedding? Oh? Are we progressing so fast now? Wow, I can't keep up a bit." Lan Li raised his eyebrows and exaggeratedly said.

Only then did Rooney realize her mistake, "For example, for example, I just gave an example." But seeing Lan Li's smiley face, Rooney was also frustrated, and she lay down on the bed in annoyance with her hands flat. Stretching out, it seems to have made a worship-or a gesture of surrender, muttering gloomily, "I'm really just an example."

"It's sad, don't you want to marry me?" Lan Li's low voice sounded in his ears again.

Puff! Puff, puff, puff!

Rooney's muscles tightened, the anticipation and excitement were like electrified, and the whole body began to numb, and the sense of happiness exploded, shy and joyful; but only for a moment, Rooney suddenly Sit up straight, his eyes widened like a pufferfish, "You did it on purpose, right?"

Looking at Lan Li's innocent expression, Rooney was keenly aware of the abnormality, "Every time you are talking sweet words, you will deliberately lower your voice, so that your voice is like a cello, with the mellow aroma of red wine. To be honest. , This is the killer you use to please girls, isn't it?"

"Red wine. Hmm...Thank you for the compliment, why didn't I notice it before." Lan Li's focus seemed to be completely shifted, which made Rooney bit her lower lip tightly, raised her hand and picked up the pillow on the bed, facing towards Lan Li smashed the past, but his strength was not enough, and the pillow was directly held in Lan Li's arms.

Rooney was also dumbfounded.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door. Rooney, who was about to stand up, stopped immediately, and started to hold her breath inexplicably, moving still, lest others discover the secret between her and Lan Li. , "Rooney, we are ready, a five-minute countdown."

"Cough cough." Rooney cleared her throat, "Okay, I know, I'll get down right away." When the voice answered, Rooney listened quietly again, and heard the footsteps outside the door gradually. As she got farther away, she reacted, "You suddenly came to visit the class. What if everyone sees through? Wait, what if the paparazzi follows you to Cincinnati? Your driving skills~www.novelhall.com~ Paparazzi thinks There is no difficulty in tracking."

"Hey!" Lan Li protested again, then stood up, walked towards Rooney smilingly, and hugged her petite body to her chest. "Don't worry, they won't find out, even if they do. , I won’t say anything more. I made a special trip to visit you and Kate, remember? Kate and I are also good friends, and Kate will also cover us."

"What? Kate? Kate knows?" Rooney was keenly aware of the details in Renly's words, and couldn't help exclaiming again, "How did she know?"

Lan Li gently pressed Rooney's raised head down and leaned it against his chest, "Don't worry, we just need to let the flow take its course. If it is discovered, then frankly admit it, it's not.' Carol or Brokeback Mountain, this is not the 1950s, we don’t need to be so nervous."

Lan Li's light and joking words made Rooney laugh again, her mood gradually calmed down, and the steady and powerful heartbeat of Lan Li came from her ears, banging banging, hitting her again and again. The eardrum, as if the whole world was quiet, only the heartbeat in the ear was left.
