2085 draw clear boundaries
The Renly in front of me is so unfamiliar：
Peaceful yet cold, indifferent yet alienated, elegant yet arrogant, a surge of aloof arrogance burst out from his bones, invisible like a wall, pushing towards them and putting pressure on them. The strong pressure from everywhere made them I'm almost out of breath, and I can't help but feel anxious..
This is not the first time that George and Elizabeth have confronted Renly, but whether it was Eton-Domer's private party or the Earl of Oxford's private party, Renly had never shown such a face, that kind of indifference that spread from the inside out. He Jingping seems to have completely severed all ties.
Love and hatred are a pair of antonyms, just like two sides of the same coin. How passionate the love is, how fierce the hatred will be. But only true indifference is the stranger who stands on the opposite side of love and hatred. All love and hatred Everything has disappeared, so I can face everything cold-bloodedly and cruelly.
That invulnerable indifference severely hurt George and Elizabeth. They were even a little at a loss. It seemed that all methods failed completely, and all the expected situations did not appear. Then they were like fools, bathing in Renly's calmness. in sight.
George was vaguely aware of Matthew's eyes, and the look mixed with ridicule and contempt stung his self-esteem, but he couldn't hold it back after all..
“You know what I mean, let me tell you one last time: We are here specially to participate in the charity auction, do not challenge our bottom line.”
Renly found it a bit funny and couldn't help but smile. This made George even more angry, "Do you think this is a joke?"？”
Renly did not answer immediately, his smile became brighter, and he spoke calmly, "I thought you had issued an ultimatum that summer five years ago, but I never thought that I would have a second chance..”
Five years ago? ultimatum？
George didn’t remember it at all, and Elizabeth only had a vague impression, but Matthew remembered it very clearly, “Was it the phone call you made on the day you auditioned for ‘War in the Pacific’?？”
Renly's eyebrows raised slightly, his eyes filled with smiles, "Oh? Did I tell you?？”
“I mentioned it once." Matthew said lightly, "That day was the starting point of your career, wasn't it?？”
“Ha, I wouldn't say that, but from a literal sense, it is true." Renly's tone always remained light, and then he looked at George and Elizabeth again, the gentleman's smile remained the same, "I guess, you should not Remember.”
“However, this is normal. Life is always like this. The superiors cannot remember clearly the details of the orders given, because the turning points that affect the lives of ordinary people may be just an ordinary moment in the daily lives of the superiors, or maybe one of their orders can be enough. It hurts so many people that they can't remember it at all. Only ordinary people can remember every moment as if they were victims - even though they refuse to admit that they are victims..”
Renly always expressed his views in a calm manner, with a little ridicule and joking in his words, and he felt completely relieved..
Matthew, who was standing nearby, couldn't stand it anymore and couldn't help complaining, "I went through such a big circle just to pretend that I'm not a victim."？”
This made Renly chuckle directly, "I used to be, but I am no longer. Unfortunately, I am about to become the perpetrator, so please allow me to decorate myself with beautiful words. After all, I am not the same person before." He's a guy who's at the mercy of others, isn't he?？”
Matthew rolled his eyes and said with his eyes: You have never been a guy who is at the mercy of others, okay?？
Renly pretended not to see it and turned to look at George and Elizabeth, "I'm sorry, please forgive me for being rude. I got a little carried away with my attitude. I'm really sorry..”
Renly seems to think that George and Elizabeth are not embarrassed enough, and uses this appropriate way of advancing and retreating to show that he is the superior one.——
A truly superior person will not care about trivial gains and losses, but can accept all possibilities with a broad mind, and even show his tolerance without restraint. This attitude, blooming from the inside out, immediately makes both parties happy. There is an obvious gap in location.
This is the real Renly！
Faced with Harvey Weinstein, faced with Chris Evans, faced with Vin Diesel, faced with Thomas Tull... Renly has never really shown his powerful offensive power, that kind of momentum. The full momentum of the field can easily complete the crushing. No swear words or fists are needed. People can be crushed to pieces with just a few gestures. Even George and Elizabeth cannot stop it..
What kind of beast did they raise? What kind of monster did they provoke?？
“Where did we just go? Oh, yes, ultimatum." Renly smiled and nodded gently, "I think you also need a definite answer, just like I did back then. If I didn't make it clear, I would always hold on to a glimmer of hope and look forward to family affection. We were always able to maintain the bond, but obviously, we were both wrong.”
“My ultimatum has been delivered to you through Philip's resignation, and that is the last time. You hurt Philip, this matter will never go away, and I will never forget it, do you remember? I am a stubborn to the point of paranoid guy, and things are always a bit troublesome.”
Renly pursed his lips slightly, and said the cruel decision in a relaxed tone, which further revealed his cold-bloodedness - or in the words of the nobles: mature, put aside the fetters of family ties, and make rational decisions Make the right choice and give up unnecessary entanglements and hesitations.
“The current situation is like this, either things end today, everything is here, then I can pretend that nothing happened; or... let us see who is the winner in the end, I'm more than willing to fight. I'm ready.”
Literally translated it is：
If they keep to themselves, then Renly will not kill them all. Even if they try to use Renly's fame to continue to expand their careers, that is their ability, because this is family, and "Hall" is always a Hall, and they want to get rid of it completely. This relationship requires too much effort - hatred is more terrifying than any poison. This is not the way Renly likes to live. He still has his dreams, his performances, and his friends to protect, and these are all more important than hatred.
But if they refuse, then Renly is willing to stay with him until the end..
At the beginning, George issued an ultimatum to Renly, and then they completely severed their relationship with Renly and allowed Renly to fend for himself in the United States..
Now, Renly issued an ultimatum to George and Elizabeth, drawing a clear line. He didn't want to hold on to the past grudges, he just wanted to cut off all ties and leave all grudges here. .Otherwise...otherwise he is not sure when his attack will stop..
Five years ago, they were a family that was estranged from each other; five years later, they were a family that hated each other and was entangled with each other, but the positions of the strong and the weak were reversed, and then the story changed dramatically, like reincarnation. Generally speaking, the same scene happened again.
Matthew couldn't help lowering his eyes, concealing the sigh in his heart. The lyrics he found in Renly's room in the early morning came to mind again, "When others return home, I still walk on the road until I reach the other side. Or maybe nothing has been accomplished." It's not that Renly doesn't want to go home, it's that he can't..
They shouldn't have hurt Philip.
But for George and Elizabeth, they felt the boiling anger surging. Being given an ultimatum by their own son, and in public, was equivalent to a slap in the face. The burning cheeks are about to collapse.
This is a great shame！
He was so angry that George's body trembled slightly, "What if I say no?"？”
Renly did not speak, but raised his eyebrows slightly, and met George's gaze calmly and calmly. The answer was self-evident. There was no hesitation or hesitation, no softness or retreat, Renly gave it directly. respond.
“You dare! "George squeezed out two words from between his teeth..
Renly couldn't help laughing - because of the absurdity, but also because of the ridiculousness.
Such a scene is really like a child quarreling, "Hit me", "Hit me", "Do you dare", "Do you dare again", such repeated provocations are going back and forth, but no one actually takes action. It turned out to be nothing more than a bluff, making their confrontation childish and boring..
American media reporters also always like to challenge Renly: How dare you！
But Renly has never been timid. Why wouldn't he dare?？
Now faced with George raising the same question again, Renly didn't even bother to continue these useless verbal disputes. Dare you dare or don't you dare? Don't they have a clue?？
The reason why he is willing to talk to George and Elizabeth face to face is to make it clear that the ultimatum needs to be made clear after all. From then on, they are just passers-by, and they will not offend when they are "offended" - if they are "offended", then they will fight with each other. See, it's that simple.
In fact, today's charity auction is the starting point: Renly will no longer be passively beaten. He will be fully armed and ready for battle. He can attack anytime and anywhere in the future. As long as the attack starts, he will not stop and will not stop. .He doesn’t want his hands to be covered in blood, but he doesn’t mind either.
Renly did not turn around and leave immediately, but stayed where he was, letting the silence spread, which also made George's "You dare" become timid and hollow. It did not require a response but was worth a thousand words. Invisibly, George began to become small, and then Renly took the initiative to meet the eyes of George and Elizabeth, and said with a smile, "So, is there anything else?？”
A simple sentence, but it has more profound meaning in the calm and deep eyes..
