[American Entertainment] Bright life

Raymond Wood, an Oxford graduate and a rising star in the legal profession, said he had been surprised.

There was no bloody, violent, or horror-related scene in front of him, but he was greatly frightened.

No matter how you listen to it, it makes people feel confused.

But if it is said that the person sitting not far from him is Grace, this seems to make people understand a little bit.

However, Grace is not catching Raymond now, and everything he has done in the past five months-they haven't seen each other face-to-face for five months, video calls, phone calls and emails don't count-is in detail. The detailed deduction made Raymond wish he could find a crack in the ground to get through, but this kind of thing didn't happen.

So what's the situation now?This starts from 2 minutes ago——

After graduating from Oxford University and entering his current law firm, Raymond moved out of his home for convenience and bought an apartment near the law firm.Can't count on London transport, even with a car, can you?

But he would still be home on his day off, and today was technically a day off, but he still had work to do, and Grace would come back, so he took work home.Grace came home in the middle of the night, and Raymond was already asleep at that time. When he woke up this morning and saw Grace in good spirits in the dining room, he was a little surprised, a surprise that fell within the normal range.

Before saying "You're back", which normal humans would say, but in Grace's view, it was a meaningless greeting, Raymond noticed that Grace was talking on the phone.

Raymond swallowed back the greeting, and his brain, which was a little slow because he just woke up, started to work rapidly: who is on the other end of the phone?Grace's agent?Her friends, say Meryl Streep?Or her boyfriend, Leonardo DiCaprio?

Well, well, it was the last one that Raymond was thinking about, and he couldn't be blamed for that.God knows, Grace had a boyfriend, not just Leonardo DiCaprio, just the 'boyfriend' thing, and everyone in the family was stunned.Don’t look at their grandfather, old Mr. Donald Wood is not giving up, trying to find a blind date for Grace, no, he is introducing promising young people, but apart from the previous so-and-so, the rest let alone know each other, even if they meet each other, they hardly ever meet. Grandpa is probably using this behavior to comfort himself. In Grace’s words, it’s the gambler’s fallacy (when a gambler loses many times, it’s easy to think that the next one will be lucky and will win next time, but every time he loses against the previous It doesn't matter once), it seems to say so.

Having said so much, in fact, Raymond just wanted to say that he was curious about Grace's current relationship.

Then, when Raymond came back to his senses, he secretly moved closer to Grace and raised his ears, Grace actually laughed.

It’s not the kind of sneer or sneer—in fact, this kind of smile is not very common, Grace doesn’t really need this kind of smile to express contempt, her eyes are enough—nor is it the kind she deliberately pretends It looked innocent and harmless, but it was a smile from the heart, and I laughed out loud.

Raymond was a little blinded by the flash, but he still stood firm, but then Grace turned her head and looked over, as if she had eyes on the back of her head, and raised her eyebrows after meeting his gaze , and gave him a secretive look.

It's no wonder that the film critics praised Grace's acting skills. This look alone made Raymond shudder, and all the vicious incidents of Grace in the past popped up in his mind... Such a superposition made Raymond He felt that his mind was frightened.

What's even more embarrassing is that he didn't dare to run away, so he sat down tremblingly, and the old housekeeper who had served in their house for decades brought him breakfast, and turned a blind eye to his pleading eyes for help. When he left, he still cast a helpless look at him, but it was still pretending.

Raymond: "..." Why did he want to live at home!

At this time, (poor little) Raymond heard Grace say briskly: "I want to accompany my grandfather to enjoy the matinee "Les Miserables" with Raymond, my dear cousin."

Raymond glared at Grace, who was lying and lying. When did he promise?He doesn't like Les Miserables either, okay?Every time I listen to it, I feel that he has become more miserable than Jean Valjean in "Les Miserables".

Grace ignored Raymond's glare, said goodbye, ended the call, put her BlackBerry on the dining table, and said to Raymond, "You have a question."

declarative sentence.

Raymond took a deep breath and let it out slowly: "First of all, is it your boyfriend, Mr. DiCaprio, who is calling you? Secondly, I never promised to accompany you to grandpa Watching "Les Miserables"; finally, long time no see, I'm glad to see you too, and I miss you too. Oh, I forgot to say thank you for the greeting."

How pathetic that he had to pretend Grace had said that.

Grace blinked and said in a drawl, "Raymond, I'm so glad you're so organized."

Raymond said angrily, "Thank you."

"You're welcome." Grace replied confidently, and then she thought for a while and began to answer Raymond's question, "Yes; you didn't promise, but does it make any difference?"

It's really the same, Raymond is a bit unlovable, but he feels that Grace can't be so dictatorial, he has to fight, think about his work, Raymond opened his mouth, but the words haven't come out yet, Grace Just put on that superficially friendly, innocuous smile that Raymond sums it up, and say, "If you want to say you're talking to your pre-law school med student with moderate OCD Being used to the "balloon case" with a London University date who is used to a unit of seven - can the media get any more grandstanding - I think I can help. You don't say you are now with your Isn't your date in a plateau?"

Raymond: "..."

He lowered his head and quickly finished the black coffee prepared by the old housekeeper, then raised his head and said harshly, "I hate you!" If you ask Raymond's deepest feeling now, it's not that Grace knows what he's doing now, Raymond thinks she probably used his computer, even though he has a password or something, but heck, his date this time, they've actually been dating for a while, just not officially, Not even a completely ordinary person.

Speaking of this, Raymond looked at Grace with burning eyes: "Grace, your current boyfriend, he is a goldfish, right?"

Grace tilted her head at him, waiting for him to speak.

The corner of Raymond's mouth twitched: "I'm assuming that his IQ is not as good as mine. As for EQ, I think you can expect something, since he can make you feel that he is special, and you have dated him. Then what I want to know Is there a communication barrier in your daily relationship? Wow, your eyes have changed, am I right? What kind of communication barrier? Yes, I am very curious now, and I think my grandfather will be very curious too , you know he has been worried about you, lest you will be so lonely for the rest of your life."

The fire of gossip ignited in Raymond's heart.

It's a pity that Grace's gossip is not something he can listen to if he wants to—Grace still maintained that friendly and harmless smile after listening to Raymond's words, "I think your problem is more serious than mine, Raymond. Seriously, I think it is necessary for me to list all kinds of small problems of your ex-girlfriends, and analyze them for your grandfather by the way. What do you think of my proposal?"

not so good!

In addition, his emotional problems are actually more serious than Grace, an orphaned guy, and these words are still spoken from Grace, which makes Raymond feel very strange, and there is a little bit mixed in it. sorrow.

Raymond decided to have a good breakfast. After Grace took her BlackBerry to call Angus, Raymond reacted belatedly. Grace said that more like shy, that is That Grace shyness.

Well, let's have breakfast.

In fact, Raymond was right about Grace and Mr. Leonardo DiCaprio having a communication barrier, but that was only part of the story.As for Mr. DiCaprio, he and Grace's elder brother, Angus Green, a big capitalist who is full of control, also has a communication barrier, which is enough to make Angus feel powerless in his heart. .

For example, before Angus officially revealed his identity, Leonardo didn't think that Angus was Grace's brother, even though Angus and Grace were somewhat similar in appearance, let alone their aura ——Both of them belong to the Alpha type.Leonardo's idea is that Angus is an agent of the NSA (National Security Agency), or a senior agent in the category of the chief.

If you think about it carefully, it doesn't make sense.

Leonardo used to think that Grace was an agent of the NSA. Although Grace corrected that the NSA could not pay her salary, that idea had already taken root in Leonardo's mind.Besides, Angus is not serious, or he met Leonardo in a way that normal people would, but in a soft kidnapping method that is very intimidating to ordinary people-think about Si Tring was hurt at the time.This is not over yet, after meeting Leonardo face to face, Angus also took out a file bag, which contained Leonardo's detailed life, and even recorded clearly the time he had with his ex-girlfriends Chu.

After Leonardo calmed down, his thinking ran wild like a wild horse. After summarizing it, he concluded that Angus is a senior agent of the NSA, and he is likely to be Grace's boss, or a former boss. conclusion.Not only did he think so, he also asked it bravely.

God only knows, did Angus Green, the big capitalist who is omnipotent in the business world and never changes his face after Leonardo asked him, lost his mind for a moment?

However, it was enough that when Leonardo told Grace about the sibling dance afterwards, Grace laughed without sibling love, and rarely took the initiative to call to laugh at her brother.

——All I can say is that Grace loves Leonardo's "stress response," it's funny.
