, looking at Darcy

"You have the potential to succeed in every way."

you?

Darcy's good mood instantly went down to the bottom, which was not what he wanted to hear.He was very happy to receive Lizzy's admiration, but why did he feel that this admiration did not meet his expectations?

The truth, Daxie, if he knew that in Lizzy's mind, he had been upgraded to the same level as that old professor of philosophy in her university who was half buried in the loess, he would definitely regret his plan of pretending to be deep.

It's a pity that Darcy's current understanding of Lizzy is only at the cortex. Although he has some uncomfortable premonitions in his heart, he still enjoys the beauty's admiration and praise.He tried not to sound too arrogant.

"You who can express such profound insights are also worthy of praise."

Darcy bowed slightly,

"It was a great honor to have such a wonderful discussion with Elizabeth."

Lizzy held her cheeks subconsciously, she was so embarrassed.She is not as thoughtful as he thought at all, she is just a product of being condensed under the high-pressure education system of Sparta in China.Not worthy of his praise at all, Lizzy lowered her head in shame and pointed her fingers.

"Mr Darcy, I... I think you've misunderstood me, I didn't—"

"Elizabeth, do you often come out to read in the morning?"

Darcy saw Lizzy's shyness, so he changed the subject thoughtfully.

"Well, I do it every day at this time—"

Lizzy blushed, and suddenly stopped speaking in the middle of speaking.She was really ashamed this time, what the hell was she talking about.How could this sound misleading to such an arrogant person?He would mistakenly think that he was implying something.

"It is a very good habit to be able to persist in reading every day."

Darcy didn't seem to notice Lizzy's embarrassment, his serious appearance was very much like a preaching university professor.

Unknowingly, the two stood face to face and chatted a lot, Lizzy even forgot the time.When she noticed that the surrounding morning mist had dissipated, she realized that it was getting late.

Perhaps seeing her eagerness, Darcy bowed and saluted, looked into Lizzy's eyes very politely, and said with a smile:

"Dear Elizabeth, it was a pleasure to chat with you. I think you haven't enjoyed your breakfast yet, so please allow me to leave first."

secret love

Sir William Lucas, with whom Bennet was well acquainted, lived not far from Longbourn.

The family had formerly carried on business in Meryton, and made their fortune from it.Sociable and considerate, Lucas was a rare and valuable neighbor.

Mrs. Lucas had several children, the eldest being a sensible young lady about twenty-six or seven.

What makes Lizzy more ashamed is that this Charlotte, who is the best friend of the original Elizabeth, has only a mutual relationship with her.

Perhaps, it is really because of personality differences.

Even so, every time the ball is over, the ladies of the Lucas house always have to meet with the ladies of the Bennet house and talk about interesting things at the ball. Perhaps this is the number of women in the 19th century Not much fun.

When Mrs. Bennet came to visit, she first said politely to Miss Lucas:

"That night, thanks to your good start, you became Mr. Bingley's first love."

"However, I think he prefers the second beauty."

"You have a good eye. I think you are talking about our Jiying..."

Lizzy stood behind Mrs. Bennet, beside Jane, with her head slightly bowed.

She wanted to roll her eyes very much, and she couldn't stop her mother who was showing off everywhere.

Even if it's out of good intentions, isn't she worried that such ostentation will ruin Jiying's happiness?This era is still very scary.

"Oh, poor Eliza, Mr. Darcy doesn't hear his friend as well."

Charlotte half-raised her fan, and suddenly mentioned something that annoyed Mrs. Bennet at the ball that day.

"I ask you not to remind Lizzy of this man's disrespectful behavior. He is such an annoying person, it's unlucky to be seen by him!!"

Lizzy completely drooped her eyelids, trying her best to hide her emotions.

Really, how could this group of boring women only insist on this matter, besides, Elizabeth was not the only one who was despised at that time, obviously Lydia was also there.

Why did everyone selectively ignore this little girl?

And—and—

Lizzy tried her best not to blush, it would be unlucky to be seen by him.Darcy is a very good man, not what you slander.

"Mother, Miss Bingley told me that Mr. Darcy just doesn't like to talk much, except with close friends. In fact, he is very kind to friends and family."

Ji Ying tried her best to pass on the good side of this gentleman she had heard to everyone, but she had no choice but to get distrustful looks from everyone except Lizzy.

"I don't believe that if he was amiable he wouldn't be called arrogant."

Lizzy raised her eyes and took a quick glance at her mother, and then looked at her COS statue with her eyelids down.

She couldn't help thinking of the encounter with Darcy when she was reading this morning.

Obviously he wasn't so taciturn, he - Lizzy's cheeks were slightly flushed - was obviously very well-mannered and gracious.

"Eliza, don't be angry"

Miss Lucas saw the blush flying across Lizzy's face, and thought she was angry at the ball,

"I also blame him for not dancing with you at that time."

"Lizzy, if I were you, I would never dance with him next time."

Mrs. Bennet screamed.

Lizzy lowered her head even lower, feeling even more annoyed.

She would very much like to dance with him, if he asked her next time.

Darcy is obviously not as he behaved in front of everyone, at least he is very vivid in front of her, can she think a little more?I thought I could get happiness like Elizabeth in the original book.

"Mr. Darcy is very proud indeed."

Miss Lucas went on to say,

"But he is also such an excellent young man. He has a good family background, is rich, and is better than others in everything. He has the right to be arrogant."

Lizzy raised her head, her eyes were shining, she blinked her eyes and nodded frequently.

There is nothing wrong with it, and he is also very knowledgeable and charming.

Lizzy was about to open her mouth to say something to emphasize Darcy's good character.

"I thought pride was a common disease of the common man,"

Manli's didactic comments interrupted Lizzy's chance to speak—she was the third daughter of the Bennet family, she was vain of learning, she liked to put on a smart appearance, and enjoyed everyone's praise—

"From a lot of the books I've read, I believe it's a very common ailment, human nature—"

"If I could be as rich as Mr. Darcy, I'd be so proud. I'd keep a pack of hounds, and drink a bottle of wine every day."

It was the young son of the Lucas family who interrupted Manli.

Yes, Lizzy nodded, no one can keep a cool head with so much wealth and power like Darcy.

This in itself is a rare virtue.Lizzy's mood finally became cheerful at this time, perhaps because she saw another commendable quality of her lover again.

Not long after, Mrs. Bennet led the ladies to visit Netherfield Gardens.

It was a sunny day, and Lizzy did not expect to see Darcy twice on the same day.

Thinking of Darcy whom she would meet in the forest every morning, Lizzy's cheeks tended to become more rosy.

Was he unintentional?

This was the question Lizzy thought about the most during this time.They seem to have a common language, whether it is the books they like or the angle of thinking.

In short, the more she understood, the more Lizzy's heart moved.

Now she can no longer imagine how miserable it will be to spend her whole life with another person in the future.But, how can she confirm that Darcy also likes her?Or did he just regard her as a friend to communicate with, that's all?This possibility made Lizzy very distressed.

Love, especially unrequited love is such a sour thing.

In the living room, he sat upright on the sofa chair.

She clearly knew that he was standing not far away, but she couldn't approach him, and she couldn't take the initiative to speak.

Worried that he would be underestimated, worried that he would just be wrong, worried that he was not the only one special in his heart.

Sitting there, wandering in the void with blurred eyes, not knowing what he was looking at, trying his best to identify the hoarse voice that belonged to him in the noisy chatter.

Occasionally, her eyes could not help but pretend to glance over him unintentionally, and the moment they met his eyes again, she immediately turned away from looking elsewhere.

Then secretly guess in his heart whether what he thinks in his heart is the same as his own.This is really a test of the heart and lungs.

It seemed like a long time passed, and it seemed that only a second passed, and their visit was coming to an end.

She didn't remember what she said, and she probably wasn't being rude to others because of her lack of consciousness.Because Mrs. Hurst and Miss Bingley showed no boredom towards herself, they seemed willing to communicate with herself besides Jane.

When he was about to board the carriage, Darcy stood on the side of the door and raised his hand to hold Lizzy's fingertips, helping her to step up the steps and sit in her seat.

Lizzy's face was as red as the setting sun, and her fingertips could still clearly feel
