2067 Life Entanglement

"I'm serious. I drove over from New Orleans because I missed you, just to see your eyes."

Renly's deep voice twitched softly like a cello, and Rooney couldn't help but imagine the indolence and sexiness of the early morning, the curves of her body wrapped in white sheets waving up and down, just waking up. His voice was slightly hoarse, and the languid tone was like a feather blowing in his ears, and he couldn't help but start to blush, and the shyness that made his hands and feet curl up instantly swept from his toes to the top of his head.

Before she realized it, Rooney closed her eyes. Although she was sure that the relationship was about to turn its first anniversary, the throbbing of her heart was still surging. She had to force herself to open her eyes and try to stare with round eyes. Looking at Renly, "Foul, you're foul!"

"It's just the two of us now, what's a foul." Renly was so rude that Rooney couldn't help itching her teeth.

But this time Rooney didn't take her eyes away, but carefully painted Ren Li's facial features with her eyes, and the nostalgia in the depths of her eyes gently surged, "You've lost weight." Rooney felt a little distressed.

Renly was originally a sturdy type, and looked very thin when wearing clothes, but now, the lines of Renly's face have become thinner and thinner. Obviously, this period of time has been hard filming and psychological torment. The thin face lines became more and more tense.

The corners of Renly's mouth twitched slightly, "I'll try to get fat. Trust me, I'm really trying."

Rooney could catch the lowness in Renly's voice, "They're not worth it, you know?"

They, as clueless as they were, knew exactly who Renly and Rooney were referring to.

"Yeah. I know." Renly nodded lightly, but this time, he didn't continue to cover it up, and a shallow smile was drawn from the corner of his mouth, "But even if you know, some things are still that simple after all, it seems , I'm still a mortal after all."

Rooney chuckled, "Fortunately, if you weren't, I wouldn't be able to accompany you. You don't know how much effort it took for me to stand by your side without appearing as small as possible? ?" Rooney wrinkled her nose and squinted her eyes, and said with some exaggeration, "Really very, very hard! Occasionally, you can let me know that you are not so perfect, do you know how happy I am?"

The funny, relaxed tone made Renly's smile even brighter.

After the joke was over, Rooney continued, "Renly, we're allowed to hate them too." They were like parents.

Renly's smile still hung on the corner of his mouth,

But there was a little sadness in the depths of his eyes, "I know." Even so, the weight of this sentence weighed heavily on my heart, making the whole person relax, "By the way, after Toronto, I will Back in London, Arthur arranged a charity auction, would you like to attend?"

Charity Auction!

Although Renly did not explain in detail, Rooney immediately understood that it was the occasion when Renly announced his return to London, and it was also the clarion call for Renly to officially declare war.

The willingness to invite Rooney to attend also means she will make her first official appearance - whether or not she is present as Renly's girlfriend, Rooney will officially face Renly's family, at least, she can see Arthur, and possibly also There were Edith and Elf, even George and Elizabeth.

Letting out a long breath, Rooney's expression was slightly nervous.

Renly couldn't help chuckling, which made Rooney protest, "I'm fine, I'm really fine, I'm just not used to it. You know, the hereditary aristocrats in London always dislike us upstarts. ."

"So, this time you are Jack and am I Ruth?" Rooney was stunned for a moment by Renly's interpretation, and then she couldn't help clapping her hands and laughing, unable to stop at all.

Looking at the calm and calm Renly, Rooney knew that there were still some waves in his heart, and she needed to accompany him unswervingly, "Do you need me to donate any auction items? I mean, in a private name. ; Plus, I can get some friends to go to the auction in London, you know, people always want to contribute to charity.”

Rooney also knows the significance of charity auctions.

Ostensibly an auction for charity, it is actually a networking showcase for the elite and high society.

For example, Renly invited the guests that no one else could invite; Renly got the auction collection that no one else could. This is soft power. For another example, it is impossible for a person of Prince William's level to attend a charity auction casually-because the royal family can't splurge on expenses at will, and all expenses must be reported, but he attended Renly's auction, This is irreplaceable glory.

In other words, holding a charity auction in the name of Renly, the quality of the guests present, the value of the auction items, the total amount of the transaction amount... and so on, all are fame other than money, and this is also the lady of the upper class. We are busy with things every day. Don't underestimate the power of women in the family composition. They are often able to create value for their husbands that cannot be measured by money.

Rooney not only attended the charity auction by herself, but also invited her friends from her life circle to attend, so the weight is not trivial——

Don't forget, Rooney is backed by the families of the Pittsburgh Steelers and the New York Giants, two of the world's most valuable teams. The Rooney family's connections far exceed the abilities of George Hall, a poor hereditary baron, and even Renly, who is rooted in Eton, may not be able to match.

"Are you sure?" Ren Li asked, because he knew very well that using family connections was a very annoying and frustrating thing. The whole family knew about it from top to bottom, and then they had to accept all kinds of interrogation and torture, and it was endless.

Rooney understood immediately, "Don't worry, I still have some friends. My family relationship is very complicated, but it's simpler than you, and we don't usually interfere with each other's lives. , because the family members are really too complex and too numerous. I should have never told you that there are twelve brothers and sisters on my father's side. Believe me, the last thing we want to interfere with is each other's lives. "

twelve.

Renly pursed his lips and revealed a meaningful expression, which made Rooney laugh happily, "The question should be asked now, are you sure? If there is a wedding, the scene should be very spectacular."

"Wedding? Oh? Are we progressing so fast now? Wow, I can't keep up." Renly raised his eyebrows and exaggeratedly said.

Only then did Rooney realize her mistake, "Example, give an example, I just gave an example." But seeing Renly's half-smiley expression, Rooney was also frustrated, lying on the bed angrily, with her hands flat. Stretching out, it seemed to make a homage - or a gesture of surrender, and muttered dejectedly, "I'm really just an example."

"It's so sad, don't you want to marry me?" Renly's low voice rang in his ears again.

Pfft! Puff, puff, puff!

Rooney's muscles tensed up all over her body, the anticipation and excitement were like electricity, her whole body began to numb, her happiness exploded like this, she was shy and happy; but after only a moment, Rooney suddenly became numb. Sitting up straight, his eyes were rounded like a puffer fish, "You did it on purpose, right?"

Looking at Renly's innocent expression, Rooney was keenly aware of the abnormality, "Every time you are talking sweetly, you will deliberately lower your voice so that your voice is like a cello, with a mellow aroma of red wine. To be honest , this is your trump card to please girls, isn't it?"

"Red wine. Um... Thanks for the compliment, why didn't I notice it before." Renly's focus seemed to be completely shifted, which made Rooney bite her lower lip tightly. He smashed it with Ren Li, but he didn't exert enough strength, and the pillow was directly held in Ren Li's arms.

Rooney was also stunned.

At this moment, there was a knock at the door, and Rooney, who was about to stand up, stopped immediately, and inexplicably began to hold her breath and stop her movements, lest others discover the secret between her and Renly. , "Rooney, we're ready, the five-minute countdown."

"Cough cough." Rooney cleared her throat, "Okay, I get it, I'll be down right away." When she raised her voice to answer, Rooney listened quietly again, and heard the footsteps outside the door gradually. After getting farther away, she realized, "You came to visit the class suddenly, what if everyone sees through it? Wait, what if the paparazzi followed you to Cincinnati? Your driving skills, the paparazzi want to follow, there is no way at all. What difficulty."

"Hey!" Renly protested again, then stood up and walked towards Rooney smiling, hugging her petite body into her chest, "Don't worry, they won't find out, even if they do. , and won't say much. I came here specially to visit you and Kate, remember? I and Kate are also good friends, and Kate will cover for us."

"What? Kate? Kate knows?" Rooney was keenly aware of the details in Renly's words, and couldn't help but exclaimed again, "How did she know?"

Renly gently pressed Rooney's raised head down and leaned against his chest, "Don't worry, we just need to let things take their course. If we find out, just admit it, it's not." Carroll' or 'Brokeback Mountain', it's not the fifties either, and we don't have to be so nervous."

Renly's light and joking words made Rooney laugh again, and her mood gradually calmed down. Renly's steady and powerful heartbeat could be heard in her ears, bang bang bang, bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang had hit her again and again. The eardrum, as if the whole world has quieted down, only the sound of the heartbeat in the ear is left.
