Chapter 532 Fate’s Favor
"I didn't expect that I would encounter such weather when I came to Scotland." Although Alan Wilson shouted for God's blessing in his heart, he still verbally expressed his apology to Audrey Hepburn.
"It seems it will be difficult to go back." Audrey Hepburn sighed, feeling that being called out by Alan Wilson for a vacation was a wrong decision. She originally didn't want to go out, but she couldn't bear the man's teasing.
"Audrey, don't be impatient!" Alan Wilson comforted him. He cherished the last bit of time in his hometown.
Audrey Hepburn also knew that the man who took her on a trip was about to go to Malaya to take up a post, so she reluctantly agreed. The bad weather in Scotland cannot be attributed to the other party.
Alan Wilson turned on the lights and lit a fire in the fireplace. After confirming that the wood was burning, he turned on all the lights in the room. Although it was stormy outside and large water droplets fell on the glass, the room was not affected and there was still a warm atmosphere.
The trip I was looking forward to was definitely in ruins, it was too early to go to bed now. Audrey Hepburn felt like she should do something, but didn't know what to do. She walked around boredly, the sharp sound of the wind racking her nerves. Maybe a hot bath will help. She walked upstairs, taking off her clothes as she went. The heat has risen to the second floor, and the room has become extremely hot.
She filled the tub and soaked in the comfortable hot water. Her hair was tied up in a bun on her head, and the light in the bathroom fell on her, reflecting her looming body and seeming to make her breasts fuller. The hair between her legs was particularly dark and mysterious.
This is also a body that has not changed since birth. For a long time, until the water temperature receded, the heavy rain still did not pass. Audrey Hepburn went downstairs and was filled with wood. The fireplace made the whole room warm. , no longer feeling as cold as before, just wearing casual home clothes, she watched Alan Wilson busy, using the reserves in this Scottish country house to prepare food for the two of them.
"The conditions are a little rough, which is beyond my expectation. There are very few things that are beyond my expectation." Alan Wilson was making potato cakes. He was quite unskilled in his technique, but fortunately, he never lacked The courage to try.
Audrey Hepburn came to help, and she suddenly had the illusion that this was a couple living a simple and ordinary life.
But he understood that this man was a promising rising star in Whitehall. He would soon set off half a world away to become the chief executive of a land twice the size of the United Kingdom. Tens of millions of people would be under this man's guidance. The sharp pen determines what kind of future we can have.
"Let's have a cup of cocoa first. It'll be fine in a moment." After patting the woman's shoulder, Alan Wilson didn't have time to feel the elasticity of his body under his pajamas, so he asked the woman to wait aside.
"Yeah." Without any reason, Audrey Hepburn followed the man's wishes and sat aside, watching the man busy, "Just like that, I went half a world away. I heard that the locals are full of aliens."
"They are all human beings, and there is no need to distinguish between aliens and aliens. In fact, most people have some xenophobic thoughts in their hearts, but most people don't say it." Alan Wilson continued to make food while saying, "Don't think that colonial people People are bound to be afraid of the British, and what they fear is the British, not the British."
"Do we have to maintain overseas colonies? I always feel that this is wrong." Audrey Hepburn said cautiously, "This is just a feeling, I have no other meaning."
"Wrong is correct, but it must be maintained because there is no better way at the moment. And I will not regard the local area as a colony. I will operate it the same way as the local people." Alan Wilson turned around and filled out the Some wood continued, "Goodness and evil are matters of the Anglican Church, and what I can do is to provide a stable environment and prevent what happened in British India from happening again. By the way, you may not know that in the British Empire, Belongs to the movement to save saints in India,
I initiated it. "
This surprised Audrey Hepburn. Although she had lived in the Netherlands for a long time, she also stayed in the UK for more than two years. During the last period of her stay in British India, in order to make her country's abandonment of British India even more Psychological preparation, public opinion has been reporting for a long time on the bad habits and ignorance of the entire British India.
Naturally, the British media focused on the events of the last two years of discovery, in which the subcontinent's solidarity against drought and the liberation of Hindu saints took up a lot of space.
Audrey Hepburn knew all this. As a woman, she naturally sympathized with the tragic experience of the Hindu saint. Thinking of this, she said, "So it was you who carried out this action."
"It is correct to say that it is the leading role. The powers of overseas civil servants are not the same as those in the mainland. This is the reason why many overseas civil servants are unwilling to return to the country. The reason why Comet airliners are actively ordered in major colonies is also because it is convenient for local official services. They want to When you need to do things, stay there, and when you want to rest, you can come back at any time." Alan Wilson raised his eyebrows and explained, "I will try my best to make time to come back to see you."
Sensing that Audrey Hepburn was interested in this kind of topic, Alan Wilson said a few more words about what he believed to be women's equality, and pointed out the difference between slogan-style pastoral women's rights and real women's equality.
Of course, Hepburn was also told that the latter was quite difficult, "Just as it is very difficult to pursue the truth, there are too many ways to guide this matter in the direction of the former."
The food was ready, and under the heavy rain, the two of them regarded it as an unconventional performance.
"It's like being in the North Pole!" Audrey Hepburn lamented the vagaries of nature.
If it were any other time, facing other people, senior administrator Alan Wilson would definitely take the opportunity to popularize the situation in the Arctic, and then ask rhetorically, where does it look like the Arctic? But faced with such an environment and such people, he... didn't answer.
I just lamented the vastness of the world, as well as the culture and customs of different places, but in the end these will become memories engraved in the bones. Sooner or later, all ethnic groups will actively or passively enter modern society.
"The British Empire and some countries in Europe are very lucky. They came in proactively. Those who came in passively must pay a certain price. The reason why colonies appeared is also a concrete manifestation of these costs."
Alan Wilson is not handsome, but he has a certain conceited charm. He can interrupt any topic and can bring a continuous sense of novelty to others. Now Audrey Hepburn is feeling it.
As the two exchanged glasses of red wine, Audrey Hepburn talked about her current goals and aspirations, while Alan Wilson said that he believed her goals would be achieved, "Maybe you will be more famous than Elizabeth Taylor." "
"She and I can't compare." Audrey Hepburn smiled sheepishly, her face looking particularly moving under the influence of red wine.
Elizabeth Taylor was a child star. She had already appeared in movies at the age of nine and signed a contract with MGM at the age of ten. Although her current status in the British entertainment industry cannot be compared with that of Vivien Leigh, who has a British treasure, she can be regarded as one of the young actors. This is absolutely true.
Audrey Hepburn, who had just entered the acting world, also knew the name of this young actor.
"It can't be compared, I don't think so." Alan Wilson said while packing his things, "Maybe you are more popular than her."
"You know how to praise me." Audrey Hepburn smiled sheepishly and joined in the cleaning process after the meal.
In the dark, the two people in the room tidied everything up before Alan Wilson went upstairs to take a hot bath. Finally, with mixed emotions, Audrey Hepburn nodded to the request to sleep in the same bedroom for one night.
Although the trip was disrupted by the torrential rain, the two were still looking forward to the arrangements after the heavy rain stopped. They chatted enthusiastically, talking about their childhood and listening to Audrey Hepburn talk about how to deal with the Germans in the past.
When Audrey Hepburn asked Alan Wilson about his life in the East, he answered about the displacement of the Japanese army across Southeast Asia and his career as a civil servant after arriving in India.
I don't know when, Audrey Hepburn's body was embedded in the arms of Alan Wilson. The latter curiously began to explore the East-West ball flower. At first, Hepburn was a little shy about this behavior, and whispered to himself and... Never experienced...
In the end, the door was inevitably opened. Perhaps the heavy rain this time was the best assist. She endured Alan Wilson's deep and long kiss.
The lights went out at some point, and the two of them explored in the darkness, while the temperature in the bedroom gradually increased. A female voice suddenly appeared in the darkness, breaking the silence, "No kissing there..."
The quilt surged one after another, and Alan Wilson's head emerged from the quilt. Only the vague outlines of each other could be seen when the four eyes faced each other. Along with the woman's cry of pain, the bedroom that night was like the torrential rain outside without stopping at all.
It's hard to explain what this feels like. Anyway, Alan Wilson is rarely in such high spirits. The next morning, he was preparing different words depending on the situation. He even thought about kneeling down and slapping himself twice. To show sincerity.
But the goddess who woke up didn't blame her, she just worried about gains and losses, and was a little uncertain about the future of the two of them. Last night's experience was indelible for her.
The sun reappeared, and at Alan Wilson's suggestion, the two walked out of the room arm in arm, "I feel that I have no regrets in my life, and there is nothing that scares me anymore."
Alan Wilson's words were very sincere. Although he had nothing to do with God, fate did favor him more than once.
