The Greatest Showman

One Thousand Three Hundred Seventy Deviant

"You should know that we can hear all the whispers just now, right?"

The understatement of Renly's words had a lighthearted joy, which made Edith's eyes widen. She knew that Renly was doing it on purpose.

The damn guy.

Edith winked frequently, expressing her strong protest; however, the panicked appearance made both Renly and Matthew show a playful look. Not only did they not restrain, but they became more cheerful. A good show, obviously can't wait any longer, and Edith is helpless.

Chris could sense the surging air, and even though he couldn't decipher the details of his emotions, he could still feel the surging undercurrents, and he realized he had to step up.

"Edith is under a lot of pressure about us. But I just want to say, we're serious! She won't waver, and neither will I! We're willing to face everything together, and if there's a problem in the future, just Come at me!" Chris raised his chest and said unwaveringly and righteously.

However, to Renly and Matthew, it seemed a little funny: because Renly wasn't embarrassing him in the first place. If Renly was really going to embarrass Chris, it wouldn't be so peaceful now.

Edith was no exception. She was both amused and moved. After all, she couldn't hold back. She laughed lightly, hugged Chris tightly, and patted Chris' back with her left hand, expressing comfort. Also means intimacy. At this moment, they have each other, very real.

Renly restrained his smile a little and said lightly, "Don't worry, we're definitely going for you. We won't embarrass Edith, she's a Hall after all. I don't mind family scandals, but That doesn't mean I'll make it myself."

The light-hearted look made Chris open his mouth, but he couldn't say a word, and then Renly continued, "What's more, you are only talking with the impulse and passion of the love period, and there is no way to speak. Reliable, why should I care? We are not children anymore, what do you think?"

Movies and novels always describe that when they are in love with each other, they can't wait to try to separate the two. But this is actually not necessary at all, because the opposition and protest during the love period only makes the connection between the two parties closer, creating a kind of tragic and tragic that they join forces to fight against the world, and the bond becomes closer.

But after the romance period, things were different. From love to marriage, and even a long period of time, this is an extremely long process, which requires courage and perseverance. This is especially true for nobles, this is not a process that can be persisted in a month or two. Of course, the marriage of interests is another matter.

Chris suddenly became anxious, "What did you say? We are serious! I mean it!"

Renly didn't speak or refute, just stared at Chris and Edith with a smile, and the calm expression seemed to say: Look, I said, both sides of the love period are irrational, then sit firmly on the Diaoyutai The gesture firmly holds the rhythm and atmosphere of the scene in his hands.

Chris tried to argue, but his fist slammed heavily on the cotton, with nowhere to go. This feeling was too suffocating and depressing, but he didn't want to back down, so he could only stare at Lan angrily. Courtesy, refusing to disarm.

The atmosphere froze a little.

"Chris, can you get me a glass of whisky?" Edith said.

Chris immediately exclaimed sensitively, "Edith!" As soon as he heard it, he knew that Edith was going to leave him alone and talk to Renly alone. They have said before that this matter is left to him to handle, and this is what he needs to face; even if it takes a step back, it should be something the two of them face together.

But Edith didn't back down. She patted Chris's chest lightly and signaled him not to worry with her eyes. The two of them stiffened there for a while.

Neither Renly nor Matthew spoke.

The scene stiffened again, and in the end Chris was defeated.

He hugged Edith firmly, "Don't make me regret making such a decision."

Edith laughed dumbly and said softly, "Trust me, Renly is the only person in the entire Hall family who won't hurt me." After saying this, she was stunned for a while. This was her first time. Chi faced this matter calmly, but she didn't seem unfamiliar at all, and nodded again to confirm, "I'm serious."

Chris rolled his eyes, "Edith, are you trying to make me jealous?"

"He's another Hall." Edith shook her head helplessly.

"If you continue like this, I can't guarantee what will happen next." Renly interrupted the conversation between the two young lovers, and then looked at Edith with a half-smiling expression on his face. This kind of joking and complaining contempt made Edith's cheeks hot and hot.

With a stern look on his face, Chris tried to confront Renly.

But Renly cast his eyes one step ahead. "Chris, you know what? Impulsivity and rashness don't do me any good. Also, your jealousy and affection don't do me any good. You're letting me It's getting harder and harder for myself, and it's making it harder for Edith."

"..." Chris opened his mouth and tried to refute, but couldn't squeeze out a word.

Edith sighed, knowing that this was Renly's advice, not a scolding. In fact, Renly is already very gentle. If it was Elf or Arthur, the scene would be even more ugly, not to mention George and Elizabeth.

The plot of the TV series and movies, the plot of "Cinderella" with a check, does not happen in real life, at least not in the Halls, but they are powerful enough to really Chris's dignity and pride were completely defeated, and even destroyed.

Edith did not continue to argue, turned around, and patted Chris on the arm again.

This time, Chris didn't object, looked at Renly again, and then turned to leave.

As for Matthew, no need to say more, he gestured towards Renly, then stood up, smiled at Edith, and said with a light smile, "Good luck." On that cold face With a touch of comfort and joy, he couldn't help but want the corners of his mouth to rise, and finally he took a step forward.

Edith just felt a dull pain in her head, and calmly came to the position before Matthew, sat down beside Renly, and was silent for a moment, "You don't like him?"

"Heh. You should know better than me. Don't you?" Renly replied with a smile. "Accurately, you shouldn't be surprised."

Tonight, Renly just had an egot, and even before he had a strong network and influence, not to mention the iron-blooded wrist and Sen Leng's strategy, Chris had already felt a lot of pressure; Said that the importance of the trophy is far less than the influence of Renly on the entire industry.

Simply put, one is local and the other is global.

The difference of vision is also doomed to the difference of class. Chris was nervous about Renly's egot, while the Hall family wouldn't care about the so-called egot. What really made them jealous was Renly's power. The waves and ripples created by the Earl of Oxford's private dinner were what they feared.

Edith did not speak. As Renly said, she was already prepared for this.

Renly was silent for a moment, then spoke again, "Why him? I don't see anything special about him. I mean, I don't think you're just consuming, like George and Elizabeth, or a Time rush, I know you're not an impulsive personality, otherwise, he wouldn't be here tonight; but...why him?"

"What's wrong with him?"

"It's not good anywhere. Wait, or are the pecs included?"

"Renly-Hall!"

"I'm serious. Where on earth is he worth your money? I mean, other than size."

Facing Renly's teasing and joking, this time, Edith did not continue to retort, the restlessness and urgency around her body settled down, she hesitated and thought for a long time, and then said, "If I Say, he taught me how to love, do you believe it?"

Love.

After Chris, Edith also mentioned the term.

Renly did not answer, but listened patiently.

Edith didn't care either, "It was he who made me understand how to approach a complete stranger and embrace each other wholeheartedly with my own warmth. True love is not calculating or scheming, but holding on tightly. Each other's hands, tolerant and considerate of each other."

She knows better than anyone how important a choice this is. In comparison, her work and persistence are nothing at all. This is the real deviant. But... She still chose to stand up, fight to the end for this relationship, and give it a go.

After a short pause, Edith continued, "He gave me the courage to stand up against George and Elizabeth; he gave me the confidence to continue chasing my dreams; or he gave me warmth, Really found a place in this world."

"You all think I'm the one who gives; but in fact, I'm the one who accepts. He... really gave too much. Stand in front of you tonight, come to him It's really very difficult, because he knows that you are very important to me." Edith said seriously, opening up her heart for the first time, revealing all her true thoughts.

Turning her head, Edith saw the half-smiley expression on Renly's face, "I'm important?"

Edith rolled her eyes and said angrily, "I didn't say it if I knew it, I thought you wouldn't make a fuss!" She raised her hand and gave Renly an elbow with her elbow, hitting Renly hard. On the rib, "isn't this the point?"

"But Chris will mind." Renly's voice continued to joke with a slight smile, bringing up Chris's jealous behavior again.

Edith was helpless, "Sebastian! I'm serious."
