The man not far away was burly, with a strong and sturdy figure full of the brutality and roughness of the Vikings. The light brown curly hair looked uninhibited, the deep facial features had a shabby vicissitudes, and the messy beard covered most of his cheeks. , but still can't hide the boldness between the eyebrows.

At this time, like Renly, he had a non-slip powder bag hanging around his waist and a big red rope behind him. The bare-handed rock climbing had just begun, and it was located diagonally below Renly, but even so, the orange The yellow T-shirt was also soaked with sweat.

"Hamilton?"

After seeing each other clearly, Renly's voice was also full of surprises, searching every corner of his head, imagining everyone he might meet here, but he never thought that he would meet this guy here, and the two Also on the way to free climbing, which is really fun.

Andre-Hamilton (Aon), the youngest son of the Duke of Hamilton, is the same age as Renly and has two older brothers. He was Renly's roommate at Eton College. Since he was the youngest member of the family, he had nothing to do with inheriting the title or starting a career, so basically he just enjoyed life as he wanted. The "swinger" is about him, the real model in reality.

Renly has never been a rule follower. Back then, he pretended to compete for the position of dorm head at Eton College, and then blatantly broke the rules. For example, sending an email to tell everyone in the dormitory that the class time has changed, and the teacher is faced with an empty classroom.

His most famous incident at Eton College was undoubtedly driving three boars into the dormitory, causing the entire dormitory to be turned upside down. It took a whole night and 18 staff members to quell the riot.

At that time, Matthew Dunlop and Andre in front of him were Renly's accomplices - or rather, accomplices.

So blatantly defying Eton's authority, Renly still hasn't been expelled, his poor baron father is useless, so is Matthew's baron father, the real reason is Andre - his father But a duke, and the background of the mother's family is also very background.

However, after graduation, Andre went to Oxford according to the family plan. As we all know, Oxford is the stepping stone to enter the political circle, while Cambridge is more of a hotbed of academics. From this, it can be seen that the family origin of the Duke of Hamilton is as if the Hall family was born in Cambridge - so it is getting worse and worse, Hamilton All were born in Oxford.

"The Female President's Almighty King"

The contact between the two gradually faded, and then Renly dropped out of school to go to the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, and the connection gradually broke off. The last time the two of them met was at the New Year's party in 2007. They wore cumbersome hand-made custom suits and communicated with gentleman's etiquette between the fragrant sideburns and the intertwining of gongs. The personal reunion was on a desolate cliff, wearing short-sleeved shorts, sweating profusely and embarrassed.

Renly grabbed the hanging clip with his right hand and dropped it in mid-air, swaying when a gust of wind blew, but he still put his left hand on his chest and nodded in a gentleman's greeting, "Lord Andre. "

This greeting made Andre unable to help but smile, so he also vacated his right hand and made the same gesture, "Lord Renly." Andre's eyebrows also showed a happy expression, "Why are you here? I heard that you went to the United States to meet a new challenge, and I was envious for a while."

"I'm sure the rumors aren't true." Renly's teasing made Andre laugh.

According to rumors, Renly has fallen to Hollywood, and the situation is worrying, and George and Elizabeth have officially frozen Renly's bank accounts, so Renly has now fallen to the point of pawning watches and jewelry, and life is difficult.

The life of the nobles is always too boring, and they need more sharp materials to adjust their lives.

But Renly didn't mind, "I just finished a job and needed a short vacation to relax, so..." Renly showed himself: free rock climbing, which was his vacation choice, "What about you? You look like this..." Renly didn't speak immediately, but paused, "Alexander shouldn't let Charlie see it." Charlie is Andre's father, Alexander is Andre's eldest brother, obviously, Andre is also an outlier in the Hamilton family.

"Staying in London all day is not a wise choice, those guys are either hypocrites or masked people. I'm only twenty this year, not sixty." Andre's disgusting tone vividly awakened Renly's Memories and happy laughter echoed in the canyon. "I still remember that when we went to Switzerland on vacation, you showed off your downhill skiing, which really opened the door to a new world for me, so I came here."

"Obviously, I'm still the pioneering and innovative leader." Facing the confidence in Renly's understatement, Andre shrugged, "I can't refute this." Can not help smiling.

"Are you planning to go back to London next?" Andre asked curiously.

"Oh, no, even you're running away from there, how could I possibly throw myself into a snare?" Andre couldn't help but smile at the witty tone, Renly pulled the rope again and said with a smile, "I When you are ready to go, you should continue to go up. Then we will talk about it next time." Free rock climbing is a very physical exercise, and it is impossible for everyone to stay at one point for a long time, it is just suicide.

Andre nodded, grabbed the fixed point again, and then began to adjust his breathing, "I should go to the United States in a while, but I haven't decided whether to go to Hawaii or the mainland first. In December this year, Oahu Are you ready to participate in the surfing competition on the north shore of the island?"

"Let's see later, I'm still looking forward to finding the next job when I go back." Renly said with a chuckle, the two looked at each other and said hello, and then Renly started to lay down the rope, slowly down.

Andre took a deep breath, concentrated, and then started to climb up again. I saw that he was like an agile leopard, with a gentle kick on his toes and his right hand as a support point, the whole person vacated. The left hand stretched to the maximum, grabbed the bulge diagonally above, slammed the feet together, stepped on the support point accurately, and then released the right hand, and then grabbed a cliff next to it.

On the other hand, Renly was slowly descending in an orderly manner, and the haze that had been imprisoned in his heart for more than a month finally dissipated. stayed behind.

He raised his head and looked at the top of the cliff not far away, it seemed so close and so far, he still failed to reach the top today. It's as if his life, the road to his acting dream, the world of acting challenges, is destined to not be so smooth. This is just the first bump he has encountered. Renly can't help but feel a little excited and can't wait to meet The next challenge, the next attempt.

This kind of life is not worth it.

With a relaxed smile on the corner of his mouth, his feet landed smoothly, Renly began to disarm his equipment, and there was a hustle and bustle in his ears. He turned to look at the small group of about five or six people who had just arrived at this relatively flat big rock. , It seems, they should be another batch of challengers.

Looking down for a moment, Renly noticed the cumbersome tools in their hands, which looked more like top rope climbing.

Looking back, he continued to pack up his equipment, "The climb just now was very thrilling. Although it is a pity that it failed to succeed, the performance was really wonderful." A friendly voice came from the side, which is very normal. During the extreme sports challenge , Even strangers are willing to chat, just like the middle-aged man and Andre just now, "What a pity."

Renly smiled. "The unpredictability of nature is one of the charms of rock climbing, isn't it?"

"Of course, of course." The other party laughed and scratched his head cautiously, "The difficulty of freehand rock climbing is really too high. What I saw just now made my heart skip a beat. Therefore, the little accident at the last moment is even more disturbing. Sorry." He showed his neat white teeth, paused, then stretched out his right hand and took a step forward, "Paul-Walker."

He has short blond hair, blue eyes, and a bright smile. His eyes sparkled with enthusiasm and kindness, as if the stars had fallen in his eyes like the sea.

Paul, who starred in the "Fast and the Furious" series, Paul, who now has a place in Hollywood, doesn't have any airs at all, sincere and calm.

Renly held out his right hand too, "Renly Hall."

"Is this your first time trying freehand rock climbing?" Paul shook his head as he spoke, with a shy smile on the corner of his mouth, "It doesn't look like it, this is my first time trying outdoor top rope climbing, and I'm a little nervous. Both surf, but now want to try something new."

"This is my first free-hand rock climbing." Renly's mouth couldn't help but lift slightly, "To be precise, I started training two weeks ago, and my first practice was three days ago. Today is My third attempt." Paul's eyes widened, a look of surprise on his face made no secret of his surprise, Renly shrugged, "So, you can definitely do it."

Only then did Paul realize that the other party was cheering him on, and scratched his head again, "Hey, you always have to try something new, don't you? In addition to the sea, there are mountains and deserts in nature, and we know too little about it. already."

"It's true." Renly pursed his lips, "but I don't think surfing is easy. I was on the Gold Coast last summer and almost embraced the sea forever. I'd love to show you. Scar on both legs, but I thought it was too girly, so I decided to shut up."

"Haha!" Paul laughed heartily, "Then I'd better not show that scar on my ass."

"Next time, next time, there will definitely be a chance." Renly joked, packing up his equipment and carrying his backpack, "Well, good luck today!" As he said goodbye, Renly turned and left the area Big Rock - a bit crowded now.

"Have a nice day!" Paul waved and said loudly.
