"In this way, Dave can kill two birds with one stone. Not only can he contribute to charity, but he can also give a gift to his female companion. Tonight's biggest winner is none other than Dave."
Looking at Lan Li's brilliant smile, the only thought in Dave's mind now was to tore that face into countless pieces with his bare hands:
Originally, it was supposed to be auctioned off by Dave, and then offered to Beatrice to show his generosity and kindness; but now Lan Li is the first to speak, the taste of the matter seems to have undergone a subtle change, I always feel Dave’s The behavior is carried out with purpose, and it feels weird.
Dave can be sure that Lan Li did it deliberately; and during the previous auction, Lan Li’s group of friends also deliberately raised the price, just to make him embarrassed.
"Ha. To auction off the things you like, and then express your support for charity in this way is a wonderful thing in itself, and it is extremely rare to be lucky enough to encounter something Triz likes in the end. "Dave tried to respond calmly. He could really feel Beatrice's scorching gaze falling on him. He also knew--
You must be careful and careful, otherwise members of the royal family will always be extra cautious to avoid trouble making friends. Compared to William, Beatrice is already less vigilant; this does not mean that she is defenseless. After all, members of the royal family have been surrounded by countless sights since they were young. It's not easy.
"As for the winner, I think it should be Lord Lan Li." Dave kicked the ball back quietly, putting a high hat on Lan Li's head.
Lan Li did not continue to be humble, but slightly gestured with his jaw. The frank and generous appearance made Dave roll his eyes, and then said, "This honor, I dedicate to the children who are about to receive funding, and Lord Alexander, who worked so hard to plan the entire auction, I was only in charge of attending, and then sitting and enjoying all the glory, which was obviously too lazy."
Calm, comfortable, and humorous.
Lan Li condensed all the beautiful moments on him with just one sentence, which made Beatrice smile, and even the other guests next to him couldn’t help but vote for the friendliness. It was difficult to conceal the amazing and brisk look in his eyes, and the atmosphere surging slightly.
Dave realized that he was a little scornful. According to rumors, Lan Li is just an actor, not much reputation in the London social circle, it is completely based on the reputation of the work-it is equivalent to the Vanity Fair halo, but in the stereotype of the elite The actors in Vanity Fair...are not so smart, otherwise they wouldn’t embark on the profession of "relying on God for food and eating", would they?
But now it seems that Lan Li is far from that simple, which also caused Dave to lose his first move.
Maybe Dave is not a "high IQ" elite who is good at reading or doing business, but he can be friends with William and be able to occupy a place in the upper class in London, which in itself shows that he is very good at interpersonal communication; today's face It is obviously not the norm for Lan Li to lose his advantage again and again and even make a lot of mistakes.
Lan Li also faintly sensed Dave's impatience, and his gaze shifted to Beatrice, leaving a meaningful look:
Regardless of whether Dave is ill-intentioned or has other calculations, but at least one thing is certain, he and Beatrice are not false.
Then, there is no need to pursue Dave's arrogant and provocative behavior just now.
Lan Li and Beatrice exchanged glances, and then you could see that Beatrice's cheeks blushed slightly, which made Lan Li chuckled lightly, "There are still some friends who need to say hello, I I won’t stay here, and we will talk slowly at the reception later."
After the jaw head signaled, Lan Li took the initiative to turn around and leave.
Beatrice only felt that her cheeks were slightly hot. She understood the deep meaning in Lan Li's eyes, but she felt as though her own thoughts had been peeked through. She couldn't help but became ashamed. She even dared not raise her head to look at Dave, lest she think again Exposure-how shy that is!
Dave didn’t know. So, looking at Lan Li’s leaving figure, his expression was a little uncertain. If he could, he thought that he should turn around and leave now—he didn’t want to continue socializing with that guy anymore, he always felt that he was always there. Being suppressed, the feeling of being aggrieved is really terrible, making him feel very stupid, but if he left, there would be no way to maximize the benefits of this million pounds today.
Damn it!
Dave cursed deep in his heart, and he hesitated for a moment, but he still picked up his spirits. The later cocktail party was the real battlefield.
"Tris? Are you okay?" For the time being, I put aside the cocktail party. Since those things have finally been auctioned off, even if I don’t like them, I should make the best use of them—in fact, he’s the only one in his mind right now. The idea is to burn the guitar and the scores. He doesn’t want to see these things in Beatrice’s room, but... he can’t, not to mention it’s a million pounds, it’s just for Beatrice. Liz will not work either.
Really depressed!
Beatrice also recovered at this time, and secretly looked at Dave from the outside of his line of sight, "I...er, I'm fine! Yes, I'm really fine." Hastily covered her own thoughts. But Beatrice couldn't help but let out a sigh in astonishment, "Ah! Why did I forget to ask for an autograph from Lan Li."
Dave felt a little tormented.
On the other hand, Lanly temporarily left the Beatrice and Dave affairs behind and took the initiative to walk in the direction of Alexander.
Because Alexander was always standing not far away waiting for Lan Li, even if someone came over to say hello, Alexander simply greeted him, showing that he didn’t have a long conversation, and asked him to go to the afternoon reception, and then he stood there again waiting for Lan. ceremony.
Now that Lan Li took the initiative to greet him, Alexander's eyes also showed a slight smile.
Unlike Andre, Alexander is a very serious personality, seldom joking, because he is the eldest son in the family, but also because he is the successor to the next Duke of Hamilton, since childhood, he has been in accordance with The way of the head of the family trains and grows up.
But what’s interesting is that Alexander is even more serious than his and Andre’s father, the current Duke of Hamilton. He is a wonderful man who is still like a urchin in his seventies, and then he can often hear the Duke of Hamilton teasing Alexander." Don't put on a vampire face, even vampires will laugh now." Fathers are not like fathers and sons are not like sons. It is also a rare and unique sight.
The Duke of Hamilton liked Renly very much, but Alexander did not. When he first met Renly, he almost thought Alexander was Andre’s father, because Alexander was eighteen years older than Andre, and he was forty-three years old this year. , Coupled with that serious look, it is difficult for people not to misunderstand.
Only later, Alexander and Renly contacted several times, only to find that this little guy’s young skin was living with an old soul. Inadvertently, he could have more common language with Alexander, such as life experience, and Renly. Can also manage Andre, the situation has changed. Today, Alexander and Renly cannot be regarded as friends, but they have a tacit understanding with each other.
"I can see Lord Alexander's smile. Does this mean I performed well today." Lan Li joked in front of him.
Alexander had already taken it off, "You know that today's auction is impossible to go wrong." Even if the conversation is full of humor, Alexander can always "make humor off the target", "Thank you very much today. Without you, today's I'm afraid the auction will take a different look."
"Don't say it as if it was all my credit. I will take it seriously, and I will not be humble." Lan Li's witty and relaxed words made Alexander a little relaxed, but it was only a little bit-in fact, except In addition to the two items of Lan Li, today's auction proceeds have exceeded one million pounds, which is very rare for charity activities. The appeal of Alexander can be seen from the side.
Alexander did not continue to play with Lanly. The conversation styles of the two people are two different things, but the hidden wisdom in it is unquestionable. "After Elizabeth returns, she should start to independently support the gate; George’s words are not known yet, but the overall economy The situation is already sluggish. Even with your help, he will not be able to support it for long. He is not an excellent fund manager."
Two simple sentences ~www.novelhall.com~ but the amount of information is very huge. Alexander informed Renli's follow-up development, which also allows Renli to change plans at any time.
Lan Li spoke lightly, but didn't intend to continue to talk about his family affairs in depth. He just changed the subject, "Is there anything I need to pay attention to at the reception later? Andre didn't say it clearly."
"You can deal with it, don't worry." Alexander finished the call and didn't continue talking. "By the way, the identity of Mr. Forty-three has been figured out. I think both you and Andre need to prepare." Alexander did not say directly, but handed out a business card to Lan Li, "In addition, Dave is not as stupid as it seems on the surface. He may not have very good academic performance, and may have average management and business abilities, but he is better than his. Father knows how to manage contacts."
"She didn't grow up in a castle either. Although love can indeed make people blind, I heard that this relationship was introduced by the Duke of Cambridge." Lan Li also points to the end. The subtext is that Dave can pass through William and Beatrice's double audit is obviously not a soft persimmon.
Alexander gently chinked his head in agreement, but didn't continue to say anything, and turned to abandon his position, "I still have guests, and I think you too."
