[Pride and Prejudice] Sky Bookstore
Chapter 21
Wickham waited some time in the carriage.His demeanor was reserved only for those who made money, and now that Skye had said it, there was no need for an air of gallantry.
Seeing the young lady's helplessness about the carriage problem was also a kind of pleasure to vent the mess she had been playing around these days.
Wickham rested his hands behind his head comfortably. It was not a serious problem for him to sleep out for a night. After all, he enjoyed watching Skye's jokes.
Of course, there is no problem with him not coming home at night, but Skye also has an underage brother. If she doesn't come home for one night, the London police station will probably be alarmed.
Skye's flexibility was within his expectations. Now it seems that this woman has a deep mind, and it is normal for her to have a solution when she encounters trouble.
Seeking help is the easiest solution, as long as you can let go.
The only problem was waiting for Wickham to see the servant who had come to help—a man Wickham knew, he was a servant of Pendlery Manor.A second-class manservant next to Darcy, engaged in some auxiliary work, so... Skye turned to Darcy for help? !
This cognition made Wickham tangled up for a while.
A few hours earlier, he didn't want Skye and Darcy to join in, otherwise all his slanderous words about Darcy would be exposed.
But at this time, Skye has already said that she knows all the dirty things about Wickham, so it is meaningless to interrupt their conversation.When Wickham left Pendley, the debts were still there, and Darcy repaid the debts for him, which made him afraid to see Darcy.
However, he was really curious about what the deep-minded crazy woman Skye was talking about with Darcy. They haven't come out for such a long time. No matter how they look, these two people are not the type to have a good time.
Finally, Wickham made up his mind—since he came, there was absolutely no reason to leave with his tail between his legs.
So, in the surprised eyes of the servant who recognized him, Shi Shiran jumped out of the carriage and walked to knock on the door with big strides.
"Why did you come in!"
"why you!"
What Darcy wanted to say to Skye was interrupted by someone who came.They all turned their heads to look at the arriving guest at the first moment, and all sneered at the guest, putting on a very unwelcome look.
Wickham looked at the astonishingly consistent expressions of the two men.It's perfectly conceivable that they're in the same room, around a campfire, discussing themselves.
Well, now the two share the same hatred and join forces smoothly.When Wickham did this, he knew that he would definitely be pointed at and scolded by others, but when he really saw it, his inner reluctance continued to grow.
Wickham was not the most squeamish of the three.
Skye couldn't believe that this guy would open the door and walk in!
"It's really cold outside. Besides, I was very surprised before I knocked on the door... Skye, why did we just stop at Mr. Darcy's door?"
Wickham's words were extremely insidious, and he accused Skye of bringing him to the door of the room.
"People with ghosts in their hearts look like deliberate actions." Skye retorted coolly.
"But you can't deny that there are indeed people in this world who are doing things that harm others and benefit themselves, and their minds are filled with righteous indignation... I really can't believe that I am riding in the same carriage as such a person!"
Wickham did not stray from the theme of Heskey in three sentences.
Skye rolled his eyes inwardly.Everyone believed that she and Darcy were at risk together, and everyone tried to keep Darcy away from her between words.
The last trace of a friendly smile on her lips slowly disappeared like fallen leaves outside the window, and Skye sneered: "Please be careful, you will fall into injustice without evidence."
Darcy listened quietly to the conversation between the two.
The conversation went beyond his expectations from the start.
Originally, he was about to answer the question. After all, it is rare for a young lady to talk to Wickham one-on-one.No one knows better than Darcy that Mr. Wickham, who was mixed with various teachings and schools during his college years, has such a dark mouth.
But Skye, standing under the crystal chandelier, is so imposing, she has no idea how much her silhouette resembles some fellow of the same name.Perhaps there is really some kind of kinship between them within a few generations, so from a certain perspective, the feeling of deja vu cannot be ignored.
Darcy looked at the shadow on the ground.Wickham and Skye stood facing each other, the two dark shadows did not overlap at all.Skye's long skirt made her shadow look like a giant, while Wickham was relatively small, and his gestures seemed to be performing a puppet show.
"You have to be careful with that manservant of yours." It was the third time Skye reminded Darcy to be careful of Wickham after a certain evening.
Whenever the shopkeeper thought Darcy was in a good mood, he would say this.
But usually Skye thinks that Darcy is in a good mood when Fitzwilliam is in a bad mood.
There is a kind of good mood, which is called the owner thinks you are in a good mood.
At that time, Darcy was reading a book about grievances and grievances, similar to the history of honor and disgrace of several families, and most of the people who bought it were wives and ladies who passed the time. Darcy was reading this kind of book itself, which was very annoying. down thing.
"He's never really lost anyone in an argument. You're the first to say he's not a good guy."
"That's because he didn't meet me. If you really can't stand it any longer, bring him to me, and I'll help you make him speechless!"
——The memory is over.
The owner didn't do something but someone else did.
This can be regarded as fulfilling Zheng promise in a disguised form.
Seeing Skye talking and moving forward, Darcy stretched out his hand to give Skye a hand, and said under her astonished eyes: "This kind of thing shouldn't worry Miss."
Darcy's grip on Skye's wrist was actually not strong, but Skye was taken several steps back.She hid most of her body behind Darcy, and could only watch Darcy and Wickham arguing in astonishment.
If the few headaches in the store were not counted, this should be the first intimate contact between her and Darcy.
Skye's heart seemed to be gently teased by a feather, but this feather must be black, otherwise it wouldn't make her feel bitter for no reason.
"Don't speak so openly, Fitzwilliam, we all know what kind of person you are!" When Wickham saw Darcy's voice, he realized where he was.
He subconsciously wanted to back away, but immediately remembered that he was no longer Pendrey's manservant.
——He and Darcy are the same, there is no need to be in awe of him!
"What does this mean?" Darcy frowned, intuiting that Wickham was about to say something bad.
"You know what I mean best. Skye Holt, don't think that Darcy is looking at you differently. You don't know, this gentleman has a man in his heart, and you have the same name and surname as that man ···”
Skye poked out half of his head from behind Darcy.At this time, she was even more impressed by Darcy's prophetic confession when they first met: "I know this. The gentleman in front of you didn't hide anything from me?"
"Then he must have told you that Darcy once talked with that gentleman late at night by candlelight. The most outrageous time was when he carried him to the hotel where he lived!"
"what!"
Skye couldn't hide the surprise on his face when he heard such a description.
She quickly realized that Wickham was talking about the time when she had a headache.
Skye had indeed guessed what kind of means Darcy used to make her appear in a hotel one street away when she woke up.At this time, it was not so unexpected to hear from others that it was Darcy who hugged her and walked all the way....
"Don't talk nonsense!" Darcy blushed. He probably had many powerful arguments in his heart, but there were only a few simple words on his lips.
The servant who led Wickham in before and the old butler who had been standing near the sofa as a decoration all showed terrified expressions when they heard Wickham's big revelation.
Skye felt terrible when she heard Darcy's answer, and she couldn't help covering her eyes with her hands.
But obviously, she was wrong.
It was her ears that she should have covered.At this moment, I heard Wickham chasing after him and saying: "Plato's book, the idea of intersection in ancient Greece, two men staying together at night, and a series of abnormal behaviors after that... no matter how smart you are, Miss Holt, you'd better think this through!"
"..." Skye was speechless.Only now did she discover that Wickham was really a talent.
Darcy didn't speak anymore. He looked around, as if he wanted to find something to throw on Wickham.
After seeing his movements, Skye immediately realized that Darcy was looking for a duel.He is on the fire, if he finds a handkerchief or gloves, these two gentlemen will stand on the wilderness and perform western cowboys in two or three days... Cough cough, no, it will be a good show of life and death duel .
Wickham said too much, whether it was out of reputation or a responsible attitude towards his friends, it was impossible for Darcy to do nothing.
Skye had vaguely foreseen what might happen, and she bit her lip nervously.
Seeing the young lady's helplessness about the carriage problem was also a kind of pleasure to vent the mess she had been playing around these days.
Wickham rested his hands behind his head comfortably. It was not a serious problem for him to sleep out for a night. After all, he enjoyed watching Skye's jokes.
