Age of the Titanic Wasn't an Issue

Lu Shi looked at Karl who was still unwilling to give up, but at least she was treated differently.Only then did he reluctantly agree.

"Okay then, but I want absolute freedom. I'm just borrowing here. If possible, I want to buy a house by myself. It's free. After I'm mentally adjusted, you can put all these Give it back to me." Lushi said to Carl.

Carl thought for a while, and then said to Lu Shi: "Okay, but you don't want to leave for no reason, you know?"

Lu Shi didn't say anything, she was just going to calm down Carl's emotions.Immediately after that, he left and never saw him again. He simply couldn't bear that kind of thing between the two of them continuing to happen.Karl would never marry himself, so what are he doing here?

"Okay, if I want to go, I will tell you. Carl, what else do you want? I want to take a bath, and I have a lot of pain on my body. It's very uncomfortable. Can you go out first." Lu Shi looked After talking about it, he said to Carl.

Carl admired Lushi's embarrassment, crossed his arms and said, "Why aren't you afraid now? I'm afraid you'll have nightmares. Do you need me to accompany you?"

Lu Shi suddenly felt that she was being molested, but she still said to Carl, "Okay, you go out. I'm much better now. You go out quickly. Didn't you say you want to set me free?"

Carl just stood up and went out.

After watching Carl go out, Lushi got up from the bed.Looking at the pajamas on his body, with black lines all over his head, who changed this for him, could it be, Karl?So haven't you been seen?Although it is said that the two have already had a relationship.

Lu Shi shook her head violently, shaking off the images that shouldn't appear in her mind.It's better to close and lock the doors first, and then take out a conservative pajamas from the cloakroom with confidence, and go into the bathroom to wash them.

Carl smiled and shook his head out of Lushi's room, and then came to his study.

The secretary, Mr. Lewis, was already waiting there.

"Dear Mr. Carl, I have followed your order and sold everything on the afternoon of the [-]th. Now it is twice the estimated return. Now because of the Titanic wreck, the stock has fallen to the bottom, and there is no one at all. Take over." Mr. Louis said to Carl expressionlessly.

"Very good, the bonus is doubled this time. By the way, I don't know if anyone has come forward to criticize this incident. After all, I only threw it away the day before the accident. It is inevitable that the media will think about it." Carl looked at Louis happily. said Mr.

"Not yet, but we are selling in large quantities. If there is no reasonable explanation, it is estimated that it will be difficult to avoid the blame from the society. Do you think we should take some measures first? By the way, the most criticized person is Mr. Yishimei , I heard that he also boarded the lifeboat at the last moment." Louis said to Carl.

"Hehe, I have a solution. You first contact Margaery Brown and cooperate with her actions. Then we can prepare a hundred jobs, of course jobs in Pittsburgh. This is my incident about the Titanic disaster A promise made. As for Mr. Ishimi, please write a confidential letter to the newspaper. He asked the captain to speed up. I think all the gunfire in the society will be directed at him. In this way, the Hawkley family will not I will be blamed." Carl said to Louis after thinking for a while.

Louis' eyes lit up when he heard Carl's idea. "Mr. Carl, this is really a good idea. You will become a positive example by then. And you are just adding firewood. Even if you don't do this, Mr. Eastmy's remarks will be exposed sooner or later. .Then I'm going to implement these things."

Carl nodded with a smile and let Louis go out.

Karl did not leave the study door.Instead, he picked up the suitcase that was placed next to the sofa.Open it, and there are some clothes, jewelry, and documents of Lushi inside.Carl just took out Lushi's ID, then opened the safe in the study, and put all the IDs in.After closing the door, she felt relieved, thinking that Lu Shi would never leave without these things.Then you can implement your own pursuit plan, and you will never allow failure.

The other things in the suitcase did not move. After closing it, I took it out of the study door.

Go to Lushi's room and turn the lock on the door.Found locked from the inside.This is the only way to knock on the door.

"Lushi, have you taken a shower yet? I brought your suitcase. Open the door for me. Didn't I promise you? I won't do anything to you without your consent." , you don't have to be so careful." Carl said to Lushi outside the door.

Lucy just had a shower and was wearing pajamas, but she still didn't feel safe.Putting on her nightgown again, she came out to open the door.

The door opened, and Carl walked in with the suitcase.

"Hey, this is your suitcase, you can keep it yourself. I took out the documents and other things, and nothing else has been touched." Carl put the suitcase on the coffee table and said to Lushi.

Lu Shi silently accepted the suitcase, and looked at Carl quietly.

"Okay, you rest, I won't bother you anymore, I know you are in a complicated mood now. By the way, I bought you bird's nest. After it is cooked, you can eat it while it is hot. By the way, it is for your mood I think I will take you out for a stroll in New York tomorrow, listen to the bustling music here, see if there is anything you like, if you like it, I will buy it for you." Carl said to Lu Shi.In fact, Karl just wanted to go out for a walk with Lushi, which might improve the relationship between the two.

Lu Shi looked at Carl who was so different, thought for a while, and then said: "Take Shirley, I think she must have been frightened a lot. It's good to relax." One more person with Carl There will be no embarrassment between.It doesn't matter if you go out for a stroll, you won't encounter the kind of thing just now anytime and anywhere here.Seeing Karl's aggression from time to time even though he restrained himself, Lu Shi was startled.The mentality of an ostrich can only shrink back.

Carl looked at Poet Lu for a long time, then smiled and agreed: "Okay, then it's settled. If you need it, it's okay to invite Molly together."

Lu Shi was silent for a while, and then said: "No need, Molly must be very busy these days. I was thinking about helping her after I stabilized my emotions in a few days."

When Lushi was on the boat, she heard Margaery Brown mention this matter.So I directly refused.

"Oh, it turned out to be like this, so let's wait until you recover. I'll go with you to have a look. If you think it's good, I don't mind subsidizing some people. In this way, I think you should be able to feel at ease. "Carl said to Lushi gently.

After listening to Carl's words, Lu Shi also relaxed a lot from her nervous heart.

"Really? That's good. I hope I can really help those people who died. Those who died were really miserable. I can still think of those people's struggles in the water. And we argued because we were afraid of capsizing. I got up and lost a lot of time. In fact, it is thanks to the gun you gave me, otherwise, our boat would not be able to save people at all. I can still vividly see those people who were frozen to death. It's those corpses. The face and body are covered with white icing. My Rose, I'm afraid it's the same. Why couldn't I have saved Rose earlier, maybe I could have saved Rose." Lu Shi's eyes were blank. He said to Carl in focus.

Seeing Lushi like this, Karl immediately knew that Lushi was caught in memories.He immediately stepped forward to hug Lushi, stroked the top of Lushi's head with his chin, and said to Lushi, "Lushi, don't think about it anymore, the doctor told you to think about something good. Relax, Lushi With me here, I will protect you well." He kept patting Lushi's back again and again.

This time Lushi did not push Carl away, in fact this time Lushi did not fall into that state.As long as you think about Rose, you will know that it is impossible for Lushi to think of being forced by Karl.

Lush lowered her head, breathed in the smell of cigars on Carl's body, and suddenly found herself very at ease.This is the time when I was not so at ease since I was reborn. It turns out that I have been living in this era with a feeling of panic.

"Thank you, Carl, I will adjust my mood." Lushi gently withdrew from Carl's embrace.

Carl looked melancholy at Lushi withdrawing from his embrace, feeling a momentary emptiness.The body has already reacted.I really wish I could just punish Lushi on the spot.But thinking about his own future, he still held back, it seems that he still needs a cold shower to extinguish the illusion of his mind.

"Lushi, rest here, I'm going out first. I'll come to you tomorrow." Carl said to Lushi with a stiff body.

Looking at Carl like this, Lu Shi blushed a little, and was a little funny.

Seeing Lushi's smile, Carl felt that he was right.Give Lushi respect, that will be able to reap eternal love.

Lushi watched Carl walk away before picking up her suitcase.

Opened it to see, sure enough, the space for the certificate of my own room was empty, and the other places had not been touched.

Take the jewelry box out of the suitcase.Lu Shi stroked and opened it, only two were left.One was given to that carbine, one was used by himself, and one was also used for Rose.So should I try the second one?But thinking about the strong reaction I had when I swallowed the first one, forget it, after all, I have to go out for a walk tomorrow.Decided to take it when I come back tomorrow.

Lushi put away the jewelry box.I went to the cloakroom, picked out a piece of clothing, and changed out.

At this time someone knocked on the door.

"come in."

"Miss Lushi, Master Carl invites you to go down for dinner? But it's okay if you don't want to go down." Aina entered Lushi's room after getting Lushi's permission.

"Then please help me bring my dinner up, I don't want to go down anymore. By the way, Shirley is okay?" Lushi thought for a while before saying.

"Miss Shirley is fine, she has gone downstairs to eat now. Are you really not going down?" Aina asked Lushi repeatedly.

Lu Shi was relieved when she heard that Shirley was fine. She shook her head and said, "No, I don't want to go down. You can apologize to Carl for me."

Aina goes out disappointed.Looking at Lushi's expression, one can tell that Master Carl still has a long way to go in pursuit.

Lushi sat by the window, watching the thin raindrops hitting the window.Open the window, look at the Statue of Liberty in the distance, and imagine when you will be free.Live freely.

Lu Shi remembered that she had sold her own stock, which should be worth [-] to [-] pounds.Then it should be enough to buy a farm in the United States.Maybe you can live your ideal life.What a wonderful day to continue my writing journey and write Harry Potter.After so many things, Lu Shi felt that she should just follow the fate to find her other half.Anyway, it's just that I can't be with Carl.

While thinking here, there was another knock on the door.Aina brought in the dinner.

"Miss Lushi, this is the bird's nest that Master Carl bought specially for your health. Please drink it while it's hot. The dinner is here, please enjoy it slowly." Aina backed out after saying that.

Lucy suddenly felt a little hungry.I fainted at noon, so I didn't eat anything, and I just dealt with it casually in the morning because I had to disembark.

Picking up the cup of bird's nest, Lu Shi stirred the spoon and took a sip.Sweet, with some egg white fishy smell.Then I thought about it and drank it all.

As for the rest of the dinner, I just picked a buckwheat bread and ate it.That's all for the rest.

It was not Aina who came to clean up the dinner, but Karl.It looked like there was only so much moving.

Carl said to Lushi worriedly: "Why did Lushi eat so much? I missed lunch. Is it not to your appetite? So do you want to eat something? I'll ask the chef to help you do it."

Lu Shi shook her head and said, "Don't bother, I can't eat Carl."

"Do you want to change the taste? I hired a Chinese chef. Although this country is backward, there are really many dishes and patterns. Maybe you will like it." Carl said to Lu Shi without discouragement.

Lushi turned around in surprise and looked at Carl, why would Carl know her own taste?I am good at everything here in the West, but I feel that I am not used to eating, and I strongly want to eat rice and various Chinese dishes.

Carl had never seen such a dumbfounded Lushi before.For a moment, I thought how cute Lushi looked like.

"Hehe, you don't have to be so surprised. I saw that you just casually ate a few bites of those meals when you were on the boat. I think it should not suit your appetite. The delicacy of Chinese food is famous all over the world. Do you want to try it?" Carl said to Lushi.

After hearing this, Lu Shi wanted to think again in her heart, but her actions were based on her thoughts, and the word "good" had already blurted out from her mouth.

It was only after he finished speaking that he realized what he had said, and immediately covered his mouth with his hands.

"Hahahaha." Carl couldn't help it even more, and began to laugh wantonly.

"Okay, Carl, don't laugh anymore. Is my reaction really that ridiculous? If you laugh any more, I'm going to get angry." Lushi waited for Carl angrily. This was her normal reaction.Why did Karl laugh at himself so much?

"Okay, okay, Lu Shi, don't be angry, I'll go and order the chef to cook some meals. By the way, what do you want to eat? After all, there are many Chinese cuisines, and it's embarrassing if you don't clearly point them out. It’s from the chef.” Carl managed to stop his laughter, and then asked Lushi.

Lu Shi said without hesitation: "Gongbao diced chicken, hot and sour potato shreds, Dongpo pork, um, let's add egg drop soup."

Carl was once again surprised that Lushi was so proficient.

"Eh, Lush, can you speak more slowly? I can't remember. Forget it, I'll ask the chef's assistant to ask." Carl frantically wanted to write it down, but he didn't know what to do when he picked up the pen. How to write.Then he said to Lu Shi.

"Okay, I'll wait." Lushi finally felt happy.

After the helper came, he recorded the dishes that Lushi liked to eat.The strange thing is that the ingredients for the dishes that Lushi wants to eat are just right.Lushi couldn't help looking forward to her first Chinese meal here.

After these four dishes were delivered, Lushi couldn't wait to start eating.

Carl looked around with interest.

"Lu Shi, you eat like this, I think you seem to like these Chinese dishes more. It's strange, why didn't you eat it when you were in England? I think you should be able to find some chefs in this field when you are in England " Carl asked Lushi suspiciously.

Lushi was struggling to eat the rice in the bowl, but when Carl said that, she froze all of a sudden.How should I put it, I have eaten this Chinese food since I was a child, but after wearing it on Lu Shi, these have become extravagant wishes.He could only falter and say: "Really? Maybe, when my dear was around, he often took our mother and daughter to eat. But after he died, no one took the two of us together I went. Now I am the only one left in the family of three."

Lu Shi put down the bowls and chopsticks as she said that, she couldn't shed her tears for the time being due to embarrassment.

Carl instinctively disliked Lushi the moment she opened her mouth.Sure enough, speaking of my dear, I knew that I was referring to the late Mr. Buckett, even though Mr. Bucket was dead.But I still couldn't stop the jealousy in my heart.

Carl sat directly opposite Lushi, and said, "Lushi, you can tell the chef what you want to eat in the future. I decided to hire him at home for a long time. As long as you stay here." Carl looked at Lushi with a look on his face. Said.

Lushi looked at Carl like this, her eyes were attracted by the look in Carl's eyes.

But it will be back soon. "Hehe, Carl, are you kidding me? This is your home, not mine. And if I want to eat, I can go to Chinatown."

"This can also be your home, as long as you want." Carl anxiously chased after a word.

"Impossible, I can't be your mistress, please don't insult me. Well, I can't eat anymore, please go out." After hearing Carl's words, Lu Shi's intuition was that Carl wanted to be his mistress , Haven't extinguished this idea before.What eased his attitude was just an appearance, just to make himself nod softly.

"No Lushi, if, if." Carl stopped talking about Lushi in the bedroom, took a breath and said to Lushi, "If Lushi, I marry you? Don't you want to be with me like this? ?”

Lushi opened her mouth wide in surprise and looked at Carl. "How is this possible, Carl, stop kidding me. If I were my daughter, it would be possible. But I am a lot older now. Don't say how lonely you will be when I am old. Just Said that your inheritance rights in the Hawkley family will not allow you to do this. Don't make these unrealistic words again. I won't believe you. After I recover, I will move out immediately. "Lushi said firmly to Carl.Carl's self-righteous lie was exposed.

"No, I'm serious, but please give me time. I will completely control the Hawkley family's property, and whoever I want to marry is up to me alone." Carl said to Lu Said the poem.

"How many years, five years, ten years? Don't be kidding me, Karl. I'm 36 now. How many years from now, ten years from now, I'll be an old woman. What years do I have for you? And marry me It is the thing that ruins your reputation, do you want your Hawkley family's business to be rejected by many people in the United States?" Lu Shi questioned Carl.

Carl was momentarily stopped by Lushi's question.Own ambitions, do not allow yourself to give up.But Lushi is also someone she can't give up on. To give up Lushi is to give up her love.

"Okay, you treat me like this only because you can't get Rose. I believe you can find a better wife than Rose in the future. After we go out for a walk tomorrow, please send me directly to Margery Brown's villa." Seeing Carl like this, Lu Shi breathed a sigh of relief, but she was still a little disappointed.What was disappointed, Lu Shi herself couldn't explain clearly.

Karl felt that it was useless to say any more empty big words.He went out of Lushi's room directly, and instead of going back to his own bedroom next to Lushi's, he came to the study again.What should I do to get Lushi completely and hold the wedding with everyone's blessing?

Carl thought about it half the night before he finally figured out that some things require him to be strong so that he can do as he pleases.Right now, I look rich, but these belong to the Hawkley family, even though I have half of the rights.If there is even a little bit that is not in the interests of the Hawkley family, half of his rights will become empty.Then you have to think about it carefully, how can you get the remaining half from your father?
