Obviously, Matthew doesn't like the Beckhams.

But Renly wasn't surprised at all. Strictly speaking, Matthew doesn't like most...human beings - as a lawyer, he has seen too much ugliness and evil, too many means of using order and law for personal gain, and too much depravity of human nature And dirty, coupled with the elective philosophy in high school, Matthew is a pessimist, it is difficult for him to look at those tragedies in real life with a positive attitude.

Renly couldn't blame Matthew. In fact, that's why Matthew became a lawyer. Renly likes Matthew like this, and he hopes Matthew can continue to stick to his heart.

At this moment, feeling the calm deep in Matthew's eyes, the smile on the corner of Lan Kai's mouth bloomed, and he looked at the Beckhams naturally and calmly, "Renly, please call me Renly. Well, after all, I live in Hollywood and I can't ask them to obey the British rules, right, Mr. Beckham, Mrs. Beckham?"

The Beckhams have both lived in Los Angeles for a long time, and their careers are tied to America, and that humor seeps through when Renly addresses them by honorific titles—a very rare sight in the U.S. I would call them that, because it's too formal, especially in Los Angeles, which advocates freedom and casualness.

"Maybe they should set a title for egot winners, like a knight after a royal award." Victoria showed a smile and said brightly, "At least you have earned the respect of the professionals, then , you should also win the corresponding reward."

It can be noticed from the content of the words that Victoria is still in a tense state, the smile cannot reach the bottom of her eyes, and the content of the words is still flattering and complimenting - more importantly, the words inside and outside the words reveal her name for "Sir". Obsession, David could not be promoted to the level of the Royal Family Medal. This should be a piece of heart disease of the Beckhams, and even reached the level of obsession. Even if it's unintentional, it's still unavoidable.

Renly could sense the gaze projected by Matthew, which obviously couldn't escape Matthew's sense of smell.

Renly didn't care, and greeted Victoria's eyes with a smile, "I don't think they have such a consciousness, even a doctor can't be called a doctor, as if these have no meaning to them, so America is America, It's another piece of land after all."

"Haha." Both David and Victoria laughed.

Leaving aside the honors of the royal family for the time being, in the European social and cultural system, the title is a very important thing. "Miss", "Ms." and "Mrs." can never go wrong. It also exists objectively, giving high intellectuals a corresponding status; but in the United States, related situations also exist, but they have not been truly recognized, and social culture has not been given attention.

The most simple and intuitive example, when buying air tickets or train tickets in Europe, there is "Doctor" in the title option column, and occasionally, you can even get additional discounts; Wimbledon Tennis Open is the only one that still remains." "Mr.", "Ms.", "Mrs." and other different titles plus surnames, while other competitions are directly called by their surnames, omitting the "trivial" prefix.

Renly's little joke immediately won over the Beckhams.

"Today's auction is really exciting. I tried to snap up guitars and scores, but unfortunately, I still couldn't become the final owner." Thanks to Renly's teasing, David's mood relaxed a little. Speaking more freely, he took the initiative to speak.

In the early years, when David and Victoria were in love, Victoria began to transform David one after another, from the hairstyle to the styling and other aspects of the project, including a small detail, that is David's voice.

If there is an obvious shortcoming of "heartbeat" David Beckham, it is that his voice is slightly flat and slightly sandy, and occasionally a little sharp, which does not conform to the image of a mature and attractive man. Voice, this made Victoria very dissatisfied, but other parts can be modified, but the voice can't be helped; therefore, Victoria came up with a solution, trying to make David not talk, but show a smile, even in media interviews, Respond as concisely and clearly as possible.

All in all, Victoria re-created a plan for David inside and out, and the final result also proved Victoria's cleverness and wisdom.

Such a "ban/order" was not lifted until David was truly famous all over the world, but David still kept his habit and rarely attended talk shows or talk shows to avoid revealing himself; only when he was nervous or excited , will be revealed inadvertently.

Obviously, high-end parties are also "forbidden/ordered" occasions. In front of the real aristocrats and elites, David does not want to reveal the details, and often talks more cautiously; but Renly's spring-like smile makes David relax. Be vigilant, the long sentence just jumped out.

Because Renly noticed that Victoria's right hand on David's waist made a small movement. Although it was hidden, it was still captured. He then recalled this small detail, and the smile on his face couldn't help but light up. "Understandably, I also tried to snap up the Victoria-designed heels, but unfortunately, it didn't work out. I'm starting to wonder if I'll regret it when I turn around and leave."

"Wow!" Victoria's expression brightened, "I've heard it before, Renly... Mr. has his own unique insights into fashion and can be recognized, this is definitely mine.

pleasure. Sadly, I don't design menswear, otherwise we should have something in common. "

A few simple words can taste many details:

First of all, in the English context, "Sir" is in the front, Victoria can see from the use of salutation that she still hasn't relaxed.

Secondly, in the follow-up discourse, the core of the whole discourse is "self", and the starting point and the end point are Victoria herself, which is her comfort zone.

In many cases, words and deeds are the best mirrors, which can reflect too many things, and they are unintended and uncontrollable. Therefore, the headline elements of aristocratic social interaction are: observation, careful observation, as long as you calm down and observe carefully, you can gain something.

"But you designed David, and that's a perfect piece of work." Renly's response was always just right, with a little humor, a little banter, and a little wit, and since Victoria wanted to have herself at the center of the conversation, Renly was also happy to put it together. Shift the focus away from yourself, win-win.

Sure enough, both David and Victoria laughed.

The Beckhams paused for a while, and finally Victoria came to speak, "Just now, you auctioned off two paintings. Besides music and performance, are you also interested in painting?"

"A hobby." Renly didn't talk much about himself, but immediately threw the topic back, "Looks like you're also interested in painting in your spare time? I mean, outside of fashion? "

"Primary stage." Victoria's eyebrows became cheerful.

"You didn't go to see that art exhibition last time, and you still remember it when you got home." David took the initiative to "break the news", and then said to Renly, "You should have a deep talk with her, she always feels that I have nothing in common with me. , but I don't feel it, and it's not my fault, is it?"

Victoria noticed Renly's gaze and took the initiative to explain, "We went to an art exhibition together, he didn't keep his attention the whole time, it was as if he had wandered out of the universe, and then I was very lonely, standing there alone admiring, When I got home, the inspiration from the exhibition came out, and I tried to discuss it with him, but he had no idea what was going on there, and I didn’t know what to do.”

"The point is that you like it." Renly said with a smile, he could sense that Matthew's vision was projected again from the corner of his eyes, and the subtext seemed to say:

"Look, I told you so. They're the center of the conversation from start to finish, and it doesn't make any sense at all."

But Renly didn't mind, in fact, he totally understood.

If the conversation is centered on Renly, the Beckhams are very worried that they can't keep up with the rhythm and accidentally expose their own details, which would be shameful; on the other hand, they center the conversation on themselves, and they can take the initiative to bring up those Topics, those that "seem to fit Renly's level and Renly would be interested", so you can't go wrong.

It's also a conversation skill, and a very clever one—provided they can use it properly.

Regrettably, the content they discussed did remain at the initial stage, and even if they tried their best, they could not make up for the gap. Of course, today is a charity auction, not a private banquet for nobles, so the content of the conversation is relatively light and simple, and it doesn't matter.

Renly had always been patient, but he also knew what Matthew meant—this conversation might not see an end, and someone had to end it early.

"If there is a chance in the future, we can go to the art gallery to appreciate and see if the artistic taste can match." After Victoria finished another conversation, Renly said with a smile, and then said directly without waiting for an answer. Going down, "As for now, I need to say sorry, there is a guest there, I have to go up to say hello, please forgive my rudeness."

Properly advancing and retreating, humble and courteous, Renly's performance makes it impossible to find fault.

Then, David and Victoria followed Renly's line of sight, and they understood immediately. They didn't pursue it, and they didn't have any doubts. They nodded repeatedly to show their understanding.

"Of course, of course," David said.

Victoria was more sensitive, "...that's who...?"

Although there is no beginning or end, the words are alluding to the mysterious No. 43. If it is him, then everything can be explained.

Renly didn't answer, just nodded with a smile, "Please forgive me for leaving." Then, he nodded towards Matthew, and the two walked together, leaving the Beckhams behind.
