"For God's sake!" Raymond Wood squeezed out such a moan full of pain, unbearable looking back and "why am I not surprised at all" through his teeth, then looked at his companion, deliberately lowered his He raised his voice and let out some words: "Grace, you decided to know about this a long time ago, right? I mean, the crew of "Atonement" is looking for a suitable young actor to serve as the protagonist of the "Atonement" adaptation movie. The 'suitable young actors' in this movie do not refer to all the roles that should be played by young actors in this movie, but the matter of a pair of twins who are under [-] or [-] years old!"

He was so stupid, he didn't read the entire announcement from the "Atonement" crew, and when he saw the deadline, he hurriedly pulled Grace—why did he call Grace at that time—and came to the "Atonement" crew At the audition location in London, when I came excitedly, I was poured cold water on my face. All the twin boys who came to the audition were led by their parents!It turned out that the "Atonement" crew was looking for two twin boys aged between eight and ten. Of course Raymond knew about them. He had read the "Atonement" novel by Ian McEwan more than once, which is a modern classic. The super bestseller Is it OK?

So the current situation is that he is like a big bad wolf that has strayed into the flock by mistake, accepting the scrutiny of other people who don't know why, and the eyes that are sent over, openly or secretly, make Raymond, who is so ashamed that he is about to find a hole in the ground. Even more uncomfortable, in stark contrast to him was his companion, Grace Green, who was being questioned by him.

Grace was happily flipping through the original book of "Atonement" in her hand. When she heard Raymond's complaint, she didn't raise her eyebrows and said without raising her head, "It's really interesting."

"What's interesting?" After asking back involuntarily, Raymond closed his eyes in horror. Based on his past experience, he knew that what he said would only fuel Grace's original "arrogant" arrogance, and then he will come—

"I mean you know you don't have any acting talent at all, and you have the blank mind and rigid body that you have when facing the camera, and all kinds of things that both cause you hate in retrospect. The side effects of memory cannot be erased, but you still persevere in your futile attempt in my opinion, and call it 'dream', this behavior is very interesting." Grace looked up, her bright ice blue eyes looked at Raymond, under the cover of that gaze, Raymond's uncontrollable expression froze. Facts have proved that his feeling was right, because Grace's ruthless and cold words hadn't finished yet.

"Oh, about your on-camera mutism, obviously it has something to do with your childhood memories. After excluding family reasons, I would say it has something to do with your drama club experience in public school. Since you went to an all-boys school, Then it goes a step further by inferring that you were cast as the leading lady when you first came on stage, and someone filmed it and insulted you."

"Gee!" Raymond, who was poked in the sore spot, raised his voice uncontrollably, calling out Grace's nickname warningly, if it was really a nickname.However, Raymond's behavior of becoming angry and ashamed did not bring back Grace's guilt. Instead, it attracted more eyes from the crowd waiting for the audition not far away. Raymond took a deep breath, lowered his voice and called Grace again. One sound.

"There's no need for you to feel uncomfortable." Grace's tone remained unchanged, and her ice-blue eyes returned to the novel in her hand.

The veins on Raymond's forehead have been popping up since Grace played him just now, and now Grace's words so lightly and without repentance made him almost go berserk, and he said stiffly: "This sentence waits for you to really become A psychiatrist who takes poaching people's privacy as his own responsibility and has a doctor-patient confidentiality agreement, come and talk to me again, God bless!"

He saw that Grace looked up and seemed puzzled, Raymond twitched the corners of his mouth, "This is a bad joke." Please, if Grace really becomes a psychiatrist—she is about to get her doctorate in psychology , after a Ph.D. in mathematics, even though she was already a rising star in the psychiatric world before that—it was atrocious, and to her patients, the reason...was self-evident.

"No, I'm questioning your understanding, when I say 'you don't have to be uncomfortable' I don't mean that I'm making you feel uncomfortable by interpreting something you're trying to hide - it's not necessary, I think you should be uncomfortable I'm used to it—it means that it's unnecessary to feel uncomfortable with their gazes, they think you're aesthetically pleasing." Grace sighed unintentionally or on purpose after she finished speaking.

Raymond: "...I have to make sure, you are using a weird way to express that I am handsome, not anything else?"

Grace blinked, "Maybe."

Raymond turned his head and began to think back to the long sentence Grace said before saying that he was aesthetically pleasing, and a moment later he said something in a uncertain tone: "You are also aesthetically pleasing. Delightful, Grace."

Grace still used her earlier academic discussion tone and said, "I know."

Raymond is also used to it, but he doesn't want to talk much for a while.

In fact, that was really a compliment.Parents who brought their children to the audition cast their eyes overtly or secretly. Apart from wondering what they came for, they were more interested in looking at handsome men and beautiful women: 23, four-year-old handsome And with a graceful posture, he has neatly combed brown hair and lake blue eyes, and an elegant three-piece taupe check suit, which makes his originally slender figure even more handsome, but in today's occasion The post is too formal, so it makes people more curious about his identity, is it an investor of the crew or something?

And Grace, who has turned a blind eye to the gazes of people around her from the very beginning, was born in 19 and is only [-] years old this year. She is more eye-catching than Raymond because she has curly hair like a flame Like red hair, the beautiful long red hair is wrapped around the back of the head by a black headband, and the collision of black and red colors makes the red hair even more beautiful.

In addition, she also has an aesthetically pleasing appearance in her own words, which is not sweet, because her facial contours are not so soft, and it seems from a distance that when she is serious, it will make people feel uncomfortable. People think it's so cold and stern, which doesn't seem like the temperament she would have at her age.It's just that after seeing her eyes, people will no longer doubt her. She has light-colored pupils, and the gray-blue eyes are very bright, which reminds people of frozen lake water, and makes people want to Explore the moving shadows hidden under the ice.

As well as the white shirt and low-key royal blue suit pants, they have a different style on her body, which makes her tall and tall, with straight and long legs, which together have a unique and breathtaking charm.

——At least it looks like this on the surface. As for the feeling after further contact, it is hard to describe.Look at Raymond Wood, Grace Green's second cousin, after so many years of being 'poisoned', he still can't get used to it and deal with it calmly, so he should have some... awareness.

As soon as he said it, Grace finished reading "Atonement" in her hand, closed the book, and said slowly: "Now here comes the problem, after you know the type of actors the crew is actually selecting, you don't turn around immediately Go, but didn't take any meaningful action anymore, and do you think I'm going to believe your statement that you didn't read the casting announcement from the "Atonement" crew because you were too pressed for time?"

Raymond froze.

"So you don't care so much about your so-called dream, you're just not reconciled." Grace pierced Raymond's thoughts sharply, paused, and sighed in a drawn-out tone: "What a goldfish you are."

Before Raymond's sadness could be condensed, he was broken up by Grace's aria, and he fell into a deep "self-blame": Why did he call Grace together earlier?Why!

Seeming to see through his thoughts, Grace uttered a subtle monosyllable and said after Raymond looked over: "I think I have fully played the role of 'reason' in your life full of 'emotions', you think What?" She said while blinking her left eye at him, looking very playful.

But Raymond wants to hit the wall, what is this, "Sense and Sensibility"?Raymond looked frustratedly at Grace, who had keen judgment and incredible observation skills, and her logical computing ability was strong enough to support her to judge everything. He was extremely frustrated: "Although I have said this many times, Grace, dear Yeah, in the last 19 years of your life, you haven't had, I don't know, some kind of irrational impulse? Say you're 19 years old and haven't been in a relationship yet - Gee, that's a big deal Problem." Not only the Wood family, but also the Green family on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean. This year, they have been worrying about this problem. He is talking about the love problem. As for other problems, um, is it just this year? ?

"One, plus this, you've said it 56 times; two, yes; three, I was in a relationship with someone that was more than a broad definition of friendship, and we had sex, so, that was probably a relationship So, can we go?" Grace finished speaking clearly, she didn't seem to realize how big a deep-water torpedo she had just lightly released.

Raymond took a while to digest this matter, and he couldn't help moaning loudly: "God!"

His high-pitched "after-listening impression" not only attracted more attention from the audition crowd, but also attracted the director Joe White who had just signed the contract and his friend who played the heroine Cecilia's brother in the play Benedict Cumberbatch in the character, the attention of the two of them, the two of them following the sound.

Grace's originally indifferent gaze suddenly froze after touching Benedict's face, her light-colored pupils shrank suddenly, and the frozen lake suddenly shattered, and icy blue water surged out: Sherlock , dear brother—
