680 Resentful brothers
Arthur was wearing riding attire today, a bright red double-breasted plaid coat, a pearl white solid shirt, black wide-leg breeches and dark brown long riding boots. There were light brown gloves and a beautifully woven riding crop at hand. , there is a sense of style in the restraint, and the elegant eyebrows are raised wantonly, full of an uninhibited and wild temperament.
To be honest, Arthur is the one with the best appearance in the Hall family and has a great reputation. But Edith never liked it. Her original words were, "It's just a skin, a delicate skin, but without a soul. It's like The gorgeous costumes put on the scarecrow are just like them. Just look at them from a distance and play with them..”
Arthur Hall, the eldest son of the Hall family, is one year younger than Elf and six years older than Renly. It can be said that he is an unemployed vagrant, or it can be said that he is idle all day long and is drunk and dreaming every day. Traveling to various parties, dinners, and activities; but in fact, he is now the most important part of the Hall family.
Arthur has a job title, "Party/Dinner Planner", and his job is to plan various activities and parties. This seems like a fun job, but it is like a big network, connecting the entire British upper class. Connected together, Arthur's advantages are that first of all, he is a noble, secondly, George works in the financial world, thirdly, Elizabeth works in the art world, and finally, he has the experience of studying at Trinity College, Cambridge University. At that time, his classmates had already entered the political field. Business field, etc. Such innate advantages make Arthur feel like a fish in water..
Now, Arthur can be said to be the most comfortable and chic one in the Hall family..
Not only because of the work of George and Elizabeth, to some extent Arthur is also required to make connections and manage connections; but also because Arthur is a smart man who takes the secret of double-handedness and double-handedness to the extreme. He is not as well-behaved as Elf, and Unlike Renly, who is as rampant as he is, to a certain extent, he is the same type of person as Edith, who wears the cloak of a well-behaved and obedient person and then goes his own way..
In Renly's view, Arthur is a typical representative of the new generation of nobles: maintaining a mask of dignity and respectability, hiding himself in the skin of exquisite makeup; and then finding a small corner to hide all his truth and The ugliness is all on display. But deep down in the heart, it is still a cocoon that is unwilling to be opened, allowing the fresh vitality to gradually become dead..
In fact, Renly was a little envious of Arthur. If he was not a reborn person, if he did not have dreams, then living like Arthur would be a taste of life, and it is a taste that countless people dream of..
At this moment, Arthur crossed his legs, placed his hands casually on the armrests, raised his head, and a blond beauty standing next to him bent down. The two were talking in a low voice, mainly Arthur talking, and the beauty A bright smile appeared on his face, and because he smiled so hard, his whole body became turbulent..
Renly's footsteps did not pause, and he walked straight over and sat down on the sofa diagonally opposite Arthur. Although Renly did not intervene in the conversation between the two, both Arthur and the beauty noticed Renly's arrival and stopped talking. They both turned their heads and looked over. Renly raised his head and looked at Vincent, "I need a cup of hot cocoa, thank you." He nodded with a smile, then met the eyes of the two people, "I hope I didn't disturb you. important issues.”
“Since you know you are disturbing, you shouldn't show up in the first place. Smart people know the time to intervene." Arthur had a slight smile on his face, and the similar arc could capture some of Renly's charm, which should be genetic Although George has special characteristics, the content of his words is extremely sharp. With sarcasm and sarcasm, the atmosphere suddenly becomes tense..
Renly raised his eyebrows slightly, "Then I'll leave now?" As he said this, Renly stood up again just as he sat down, which made Arthur roll his eyes helplessly. Renly knew that today, He had a mission. If he didn't explain it properly and the matter reached George's ears, he would probably have to go through a lot of trouble later, and he would be the one to suffer. Therefore, Renly's threat was intentional..
However, Arthur was not a vegetarian and fired back, "You know this conversation will have to happen sooner or later. Either here or the unveiling ceremony of Dormer's house." If the unveiling ceremony of Eaton is chosen, once there is a deadlock, Everyone looks bad.
“That's great of course. There's no need to meet twice. I'll see you at the unveiling ceremony later." Renly didn't care at all. After greeting him, he turned around and left without any hesitation in his steps..
Arthur's chest was choked with one breath. Renly was always so difficult to deal with, even more difficult than Elf. Every time he dealt with it, it was extremely difficult. , if you are not careful, you will fall into the trap, and if you break the tooth, you can only swallow it in your stomach. But the point is, no one knows Renly’s true face! They all thought that Renly was just a fool, a lunatic, and a fool who was desperate for his dreams! Only such a kind person like him is suffering in silence.
He is the unlucky guy. Every time he encounters such a difficult task, he is the one who takes the initiative. When Renly came back last year, Elf went to visit, but he gave a casual greeting and nothing happened. ; This year Renly came back again, and Elf immediately had a bunch of excuses. He was busy with surgery and unwell, and then he was pushed out. Why didn't Elf recommend him last year?？
“Renly." Arthur lowered his legs and shouted loudly, but Renly's steps showed no sign of stopping. Arthur was on the verge of tears and could only shout, "Jo, Joe, will Master Renly stopped." The waiter standing at the door took a half-step cautiously, not blocking Renly's path, but he stretched out his hand to signal, "Sir Renly, someone is calling you..”
Renly's steps finally stopped, but he did not turn around, but said to the waiter, "Qiao, what is the club's punishment for making loud noises in the afternoon tea hall?"？”
“……Three hundred pounds." Joe lowered his eyes and said politely.
Renly nodded slightly, "Please put it in Lord George's name. Remember, be sure to write it down." After saying that, Renly turned around and walked towards Arthur again, Shi Shiran beside him. Sitting down on the sofa, looking at the dumbfounded Arthur, Renly raised his eyebrows and said, "There is always a reason for calling me back, right?"？”
Arthur was not angry, but raised the corners of his mouth. Renly always knew how to anger George and Elizabeth, and they always had no choice. Both he and Edith were happy to see such a scene..
“Arthur, may I ask who this person is..." The beautiful woman standing next to her chuckled lightly, her eyes fell on Renly, and she looked at Renly boldly and directly..
Such a style is unique in the Hurlingham Club. This is a gentlemen's club, not a cheap pimping place. Even if it is seduction/seduce, they will not be so blatant. After all, for nobles, face is worth a thousand pieces of money..
But the beauty in front of me is wearing a black evening dress and short skirt, which tightly wraps her body. Her proud bust is ready to be revealed, her slender waist is full of grace, and her slender and strong legs are full of the beauty of lines. But the point is, she has a delicate baby face, and the long golden hair hanging down softens the curve of her jaw..
Extraordinary. This is the only adjective. It is not derogatory, but complimentary. Unfortunately, her eyes and behavior immediately gave her away..
Some people are curious, why do people in the upper class always recognize the nouveau riche but always reject them? In fact, the reason is very simple. In the real upper class, the speech and behavior have been accumulated and trained since childhood. Every word, deed, and smile can tell a person's upbringing, and you can even tell whether he is a down-and-out aristocrat..
In a place like the Hurlingham Club, the slightest mistake can reveal the truth. In fact, for ordinary people, the upper class is more like a shackles than a enjoyment, because they may not even cough or Body instincts such as yawning must be carefully controlled.
The beauty in front of her is beautiful, but all the emotions and attitudes are floating in her eyes, which is too "shallow". Of course, this is still the ultimate enjoyment of beauty. If it were in other private clubs or parties, Renly Not surprising at all, but this is Hurlingham.
Arthur pursed his lips and said, "I just met Miss Hazel." The subtext was that he didn't know who brought her in. Obviously, this Miss Hazel was trying to seize the biggest opportunity in her life. , flew up the branch and turned into a phoenix. Arthur should be her prey. But then, Arthur noticed the light in the beauty's eyes, the surging excitement and excitement, which was almost uncontrollable, which made Arthur burst into laughter, "Even if you You dress so casually, but there are still beauties who favor you. So, I always don’t like attending parties with you..”
“Are you sure it's not because they saw your true face, just like Edith? "Renly fired back lightly, showing no sign of weakness..
Arthur raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, "You know, eloquence is not what I'm good at..”
Renly nodded in affirmation, "The only way to tell lies is to open your eyes and tell lies..”
The beauty watched the two people going back and forth. The information in their words was too fast and too loud for her to react, so she gave up. Before Arthur could make an introduction, she took the initiative to extend her right hand. ——This is absolutely impossible in the upper class. Ladies will not introduce themselves. They must have introducers. "Keeley-Hazell）.”
Only then did Arthur seem to react, "Miss Hazel, this is Renly Hall." Keely didn't realize that both Arthur and Renly were named "Hall", but she knew that being able to enter this club "Renly, are you sure you don't know Miss Hazel? She is also an actress, and after all, she is your colleague.".”
As they talked, they were making fun of Renly's career as an actor..
Renly, however, remained calm at all, and fired back again calmly, "Really? I thought there was no way for you and the actor to appear on the same occasion, just like George and Elizabeth. It seems, Miss Hazel is indeed very charming.”
