[Zhongyingmei] I may like the fake male god

Half an hour later, the four sat in Nick's hut waiting for lunch.Gatsby, Gatsby he had the cheek to follow.

Even though he made up his mind to compete with Leo and let Nick see who is more elegant, but in front of #迷之华国食品#, Gatsby was still ashamed of the clean plate in front of him (there is no CD at this time. action), feeling like a throwback to when I was a kid starving and licking my dishes to shine.

Of course Nick knew what Gatsby's complicated look was for now, because it was the same way when he went to Leo the first time.Although the taste is very good, he is not a person without self-control, so he accidentally ate all his body and his stomach became round.

At that time, he was really afraid that Leo would mistakenly think that his family had never fed him enough. If the Calloway family was the mistress, his mother would really cry.

He comforted, "It's good for us to eat happily here, Leo won't talk about that."

Nick pointed to Francis who was eating the third bowl of rice, and whispered to Gatsby, "Look, when I was Fran's age, my mother wouldn't restrict me or allow me to eat so much. .” Gatsby felt unconsoled, why did he compare himself with a furry child.

And, listen, "our side", Nick, who you "we side" with, wouldn't you know you a few days earlier than me, will I be sincere to you.

Jealous gentleman, do you think your focus is wrong?

Also, Fran, who I heard even if you whispered: Uncle Nick, you think that every day you call it a little unhealthy and need to rest, but in fact, why can’t I eat so much after practicing physical strength behind the yacht.

After dinner, the three of them sat on the sofa, and Fran looked at the mechanical alarm clock on the closet.This is the oldest version of the clock, with brown wood on the outside, which looks particularly period.

After the initial discomfort, Francis is now curious about everything. Of course, he is also very interested in Leo's disguised items, but he must be prepared to be electrocuted/locked in a small dark room, etc. preparation.

Gatsby stood up and lit two cigarettes for Nick and Leo with the cigarette lighter.Li Ao took it, took a breath, suddenly said that he had something to do, and took Francis away.Gatsby cast a grateful look at the back.

Let him go for now, otherwise how will the main story start.Leo thought.Let's see if his performance is okay this time.

"Little Fran, do you want to try it?" Leo asked Francis who was eager to try.

Francis felt that there was a problem, but still nodded and took the cigarette, and put the cigarette in his mouth.Take a deep breath—"cough, cough——, cough"

"It feels good," Leo said intentionally. "In this day and age, there are no filters, so you can feel the beauty of nicotine wreaking havoc in your mouth."

"Also, young man, you are very proficient in smoking posture. It seems that you have been exposed to it before. How about it, I will give you two tasks when I go back. One is to write a paper on the effect of nicotine for me, and the other is to research the filter tip. .”

"...good." I hate nicotine.Francis also felt that Leo didn't like people who smoked. He silently added in the precautions for getting along with Leo not to smoke in front of Mr. Leo.

What you promised must be done well. After returning to the mansion, Fran consciously ran to the library and asked Butler Wilson for a pack of cigarette research from the world they came to.

It was Wilson who looked at him with a little hairy eyes.Must be my illusion.

Wilson: I seem to see my successor :) He's had enough of this bunch of rough men.

On Nick's side, the atmosphere was a little awkward.

"Did you say you wanted to borrow my house for a tea party?" Nick asked, "Why not choose your luxurious mansion, I believe any lady or lady would not want to miss it."

Gatsby doesn't know what to say, should he confess that he actually wants to use your relationship to invite his cousin Daisy to meet?

In the end, Nick agreed to the request in silence. He thought, this Mr. Gatsby is pretty decent, especially if he saved my cat.

"If you insist, I never imagined that my hut will be more attractive than the mansion one day." At this time, Nick already felt that something was a little strange.

"I'll vacate the house that day."

"...No, Nick, I still need your help." Finally, Gatsby who had been silent all this time spoke. "I need your help very much." Apart from pleading sincerely, he couldn't think of any other way.

He is used to everything being measured by money, but no matter how low his EQ is, he knows that he shouldn't treat his friends like this.Especially before meeting Leo, he didn't think he would lose money to anyone.

Gatsby opened his mouth slowly, and said something he thought he would never tell anyone in this life, "Oh, I'll tell you the reason, yes, it's actually like this..." Gatsby said awkwardly A few heads, but it doesn't look very successful. "I've been reading a Chicago paper every day for years, hoping to come across Daisy's name..."

When Chicago and Daisy are connected, I know Gatsby is referring to my cousin, especially my cousin is also a famous beauty.

"I bought this house because I later learned that Daisy lived across the street." It seemed that after saying the beginning, things went smoothly, "I started hosting banquets, no one needed invitations, just hope One day Daisy may be interested in coming to my banquet after hearing from other people."

Speaking of this, Gatsby's bright eyes dimmed, "But she never came."

Gatsby went on, "Knowing that this foolish method might never work, I set out to see if anyone knew her."

"So you found me because I'm Daisy's cousin." Nick felt a little strange at this moment.

"No, no, no, I didn't do it on purpose," Gatsby defended himself, "It's just that I happened to see Buchanan sending you back that day." The speaker also unexpectedly felt a little guilty.

Nick thought about the day he went to Tom's house as a guest, only that day he was sent back by Tom.At this time, he also understood that the neighbor observing the starry sky he met that night was just observing the opposite side of the bay.

"Nick, I swear, I'm not doing anything wrong, I just want to see her."

"Can I ask about your relationship with Daisy?" I could feel Gatsby's emotions getting agitated, and he didn't look like those people who were unrequitedly in love with Daisy - many of them were also married to Daisy After that, the enthusiasm gradually faded away.

"When I was young, I was in love with Daisy Fay." Gatsby didn't like the fact that his beloved girl took another man's surname.

Nick thought blankly: This is really big news.

In Gatsby's narration, Nick gradually remembered the scene when his mother went to the wedding.

Daisy Fay was my distant relative, very, very far away.But because my father was engaged in the hardware business, he happened to be a supplier of the Fay family's factory, so the relationship between the Calloway family and the Fay family gradually became familiar with each other.

In June of [-], my mother took my sister to Daisy's wedding.And most of the men of my generation and I missed the wedding because of the war.

By wonderful fate, I also know Daisy's marriage partner, who is my Yale alumnus——Tom Buchanan.

"Come on, honey."

The younger sister listened to her mother's greeting, and was led by her mother into the Morbach Hotel.For the wedding, Tom rented out the entire first floor. According to (mother), Daisy's fiancé gave her a pearl necklace estimated to be worth $35.

All women, married and unmarried, old and young, envied Daisy's wedding.It was a wedding they talked about, and my mother was no exception.

It was a luxurious wedding full of flowers and champagne (prohibition is still in effect), even now, in Louisville, there are young girls following Daisy, hoping that their fiancés will give them pearl necklaces to express their affection.

Daisy was always the most flamboyant of all the Louisville ladies.

"But now Daisy is married," said Nick.

"Yes, I know she's married..." Gatsby said with difficulty, "but she's not happy, is she? Buchanan messed around with Daisy on their honeymoon, and Because a housemaid was in the papers. And you know, that Buchanan girlfriend in town."

I remember everything Gatsby said.

The maid in the Santa Barbara Hotel ended up in a car accident one night when I was with Tom, and the girlfriend in New York City, Tom almost took me to meet, but I met Uncle Bird on the way Nephew just let it go.

And most importantly, Daisy she knew.This was what Daisy said at the last meal.

Nick began to waver, there was no way, he had a better impression of this neighbor than Tom,

Gates saw Nick's hesitation, and he almost said in a bewitching voice, "[Daisy's life should also have some comfort]."

"But, would Daisy be willing to see you?" Nick was bewitched by the seductive voice.

"So we can't let her know in advance, and this is up to you." Gatsby clenched his fists excitedly, "Nick, just invite her to tea. I just want to see him, I've waited too long for this."

After Gatsby repeatedly promised that he would not do anything inappropriate, Nick finally agreed.

Gatsby has been waiting for almost five years. Anyway, since I met him, I have to help him and give him that mysterious opportunity.

After Gatsby left, Nick suddenly found that he forgot to tell Gatsby that Daisy knew about Tom.He thought, this is not a big deal.

The next morning Nick fed the puppies and feral cats and stroked their heads, an interaction he thoroughly enjoyed.After checking the wild cat's recovery, Nick changed the water in the plate again.The medicine Mr. Bird had given was good, he thought, and Anthony (the stray cat Nick had finally decided to keep himself) was doing well.

"Be good at home, I'm going to work." After saying hello, Nick went to work contentedly.

Coincidentally, Nick met Tom and his girlfriend in a pharmacy because he hitched a ride with a colleague to another branch.

If Tom hadn't pinched her girlfriend's plump buttocks while no one was looking-of course Tom had looked around carefully, but he ignored the people in the car-Nick wouldn't have put this cocky, dressed The tall woman in the brown calico dress was associated with Tom.

Mrs. Wilson?right.It's her, Nick has an impression of her because of her husband who can be seen sitting on the side of the road or in front of the store every day.

Another bad account.

My colleague came out of the pharmacy. He had already bought cigarettes and brought me a bottle of drink, "Drink it, we won't have to come out by ourselves later." one of them.So Nick didn't care about Tom's affairs, and began to think about how to grasp the lifeline of money.

This matter still affected Nick. After returning to the office that day, he was still hesitant to call Daisy.

Nick and Daisy make an appointment, and make sure they can't bring Tom over.

["Who's 'Tom'?" she asked playfully. ]

In the dark, the word "death" slowly rose above their heads.

15 days to be a male god No.
