The subtle changes can be noticed slightly, the low and whispering voices in the lobby on the first floor seem to be quietly calming down, not completely disappearing, just seem a little absent, it seems that all attention has run away; wine; The space with red as the main color unknowingly becomes cold, and the air seems to be so rigid that everyone's movements can't help but slow down, giving the illusion of time stagnation.
Tim-Stanley, the staff member who led the way for Renly and Matthew, stood on one side, his muscles stiffening slightly.
According to common sense, after the guests met, Tim’s work was over and he could retire. However, the situation in the Hall family was very special. George and Elizabeth came on stage without an invitation letter, the first level. The staff were very flustered, but also at a loss. In order to avoid gossip, under the attention of the reporters, they led the Hall couple into the lobby on the first floor, hoping that the matter would be resolved in the waiting room next to the cloakroom.
At this moment, Tim is waiting for the opportunity to guide them into the waiting room next to him, but here is the problem:
After the meeting, the two sides froze. No one speaks. No one speaks!
After the four people met, there was no greeting or greeting, even no verbal confrontation. There was no sound. The quiet scene was a little scary, so that Tim didn’t know what to do. He couldn’t take the initiative to break the deadlock and leave. No, neither is it to stay, his position suddenly became embarrassing:
The etiquette manual does not teach how to deal with such a scene.
George and Elizabeth did not speak, and Renly did not intend to speak. Matthew is even more so. Today, it is Renly who has the absolute initiative. When George and Elizabeth showed up at the Garrick Club without an invitation letter, They let themselves fall into a passive situation. Are they still holding back their arrogance and indifference, looking forward to Lan Li's success? Do they have any misunderstandings about Lan Li?
Lan Li's silence made the scene stiff.
George... refuses to speak. It is already a shame to appear here. He refuses to make himself more pathetic, refuses to expose his vulnerability to outsiders, and refuses to show his cowardice to Lan Li. This is absolutely impossible. Even if the sky falls, it is absolutely impossible for him to take the initiative to break the deadlock.
Now is the time to test endurance. As long as he does not speak, and Lan Li does not speak, then the surrounding environment and atmosphere will gradually put pressure on Lan Li-because Lan Li is a junior and a master, he needs to take the lead, or Welcome or expel, he must give an attitude, then this will be George's opportunity.
George believed so firmly.
Elizabeth couldn't help tightening her fist slightly, her narrow and sharp fingertips plunged deeply into the tender flesh of her palm, and the thoughts in her mind were surging. If possible, she also refused to lose her dignity, but she knew that she did not have too many choices, and the shame made her fingertips tremble slightly:
Damn Lan Li, can't he keep a little face for them?
Elizabeth still has a glimmer of hope. She is waiting, waiting for a miracle to appear, for example, someone unexpectedly shows up, and then breaks the deadlock without knowing why, so that they can all find a step and go down to resolve the situation. Finally reverse the whole situation.
But...waiting, waiting, still nothing happened. Those accidents may happen on other occasions, but they definitely won't be here.
Elizabeth suddenly complained of these nobles' "behaved". She could clearly perceive the calmness in Lan Li's eyes, and she was not affected at all. The calmness and calmness made her standing in front of her couldn't help it. Some became flustered, too guilty.
Then she knew that she was destined to be disappointed. This is true for George, and so is Renly, even Matthew. Under such circumstances, she can only be a woman to break the deadlock in the end, right? This is the fate of a woman, how ridiculous and how sad.
Elizabeth opened her shoulders slightly invisibly, raised her chest, and said to Lan Li gracefully and politely, "Is the weather still accustomed?"
Even if it was the passive initiative to break the deadlock, Elizabeth still did not lose her wisdom and elegance:
She expressed the right care as a mother, and the topic chosen was the most everyday weather. There was no flattery or arrogance. The proper etiquette of social occasions was so perfect that people could not pick up the mistakes. Use this method to break the deadlock. It is undoubtedly the best choice.
Even Lan Li wanted to applaud Elizabeth, which reminded him of Elf, who returned to London for the first time in order to film "Love Is Crazy" and then made a special trip to visit him. The image of the two women was like this. They overlap, but Elizabeth is a bit more sophisticated.
"Still adjusting." Lan Li was not aggressive, and answered politely. The calm words didn't detect any emotions, as if an ordinary conversation was going on, without intimacy, hatred, or even Emotional fluctuations are just strangers.
Standing next to Tim, he could clearly feel the indifference in his bones. He couldn't help but close all the lingering light, and tried his best to eliminate his sense of existence, as if he was on the scene of a whale fight, lest he expose his own existence. Will be swallowed directly.
"Charles?" Tim heard Elizabeth's call, he raised his head suddenly, and then noticed that Elizabeth was looking at him with a smile but there was no temperature at all. Obviously he was very, very dissatisfied with his work. He couldn't help but struck a spirit.
Charles.
This is an unwritten rule originating from private clubs. The waiters must firmly remember the name and title of each club member. This is their job; but the opposite is not true. How can those noble masters remember the name of each waiter? Even if the waiters are all put on the nameplates, there are still many situations that need to be considered. Some people may be too lazy to observe, some may be nearsighted and presbyopic, some may be too flustered to read, some It may be that the distance is too far to be recognized... This all means that the names of the waiters are a puzzle.
So, what should we do at this time?
In order to prevent club members or VIPs from calling the wrong name and causing unnecessary shame, the names of all private club waiters are unified as "Charles"-note that it is all clubs. No private club has its own privileges. The waiters have different names. There is no such thing. They are all serving club members, so all the names are unified to avoid some nobles who may be members of multiple different private clubs and need to remember different names. The possibility of potential oolong. All club members are treated as the highest treatment.
Of course, Tim’s chest is also missing the nameplate. If a guest is willing to call his name, that’s no problem, it’s a kind of extra respect.
Now, Elizabeth calling "Charles" is actually sending a signal: Tim should step in now.
Tim immediately reacted and asked politely, "Do you need a little private space? There is a waiting room next to it." Next, he only needs to lead the way to the waiting room, his work can be over, and then he can. leave here.
"There is not much time left before the auction. We are here today, obviously not for greeting." Lan Li politely refused.
Tim stunned directly, he had an urge to cry.
Lan Li seemed to be able to interpret Tim's emotions and cast his eyes with a smile, "Thank you for your help, I think you should have other work to complete."
The subtext is: you can leave.
Tim blinked, his thoughts were a little bit stunned, but he was stunned for a while, and according to Lan Li's instructions, he stepped back and nodded for two steps, then turned and left. He walked faster and faster. There was only one head in his head. Thought: How did he get out? Did he really get away?
Tim's departure didn't cause much disturbance, and Lan Li immediately turned to look at George and Elizabeth again, and cast his gaze with a big smile.
Did not speak.
Elizabeth knew that Lan Li once again threw the initiative out-obviously, this was not because of respecting the elders, but because Lan Li was sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, forcing them to lower their posture to break the deadlock. Lan Li wanted to see their embarrassment and In distress, Lan Li wanted to enjoy the pleasure of the winner.
Elizabeth wanted to swear.
But this time it was George who took the initiative to break the deadlock—because there are no outsiders at this time~www.novelhall.com~George is not willing to continue to stand in the public, ashamed, since they block the way and refuse to go to the hospitality room, they must be there. There was a quick decision here, so he finally spoke.
"We made a special trip here to participate in the charity auction, let's go in together." George gave the instructions somewhat perfunctorily and rudely. The real point was so vaguely stated-they didn't have an invitation letter, they just asked for a blue gift ribbon. Let them enter the auction together.
The corners of Lan Li's mouth rose slightly, and he said in a calm and soft tone, "Sorry, you found the wrong partner. The organizer of this auction is Alexander. Do you need me to call Alexander over for you?"
Those bright eyes met the sights of George and Elizabeth frankly and firmly, and gave the Hall couple a heavy hammer on their chests. The dull tearing feeling made both of them feel a little embarrassed. I almost lost my attitude, only I knew what it was like.
After all, George still did not hold back, "You know what I mean, I will tell you one last time: We are here to participate in the charity auction. Don't challenge my bottom line."
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
