The Christmas private dinner in the Prince's Garden was attended by only 20 guests. This was the first official dinner after Renly Hall returned to London, but only the closest and most personal friends could attend, although in the name of Christmas, with family members Reunion is the best option; but who wouldn't want an invitation from Renly
Unexpectedly but logically, director Christopher Nolan's family appeared in the Prince's Garden, and Emma Fielding, the manager of the Almeida Theater, also joined her husband as a guest of Renly. "The face is on the scene - the paparazzi may not be able to call out their names, but it is not difficult to find out the truth after investigation and inquiries. Those are all characters from the hereditary aristocracy in London. Maybe they are not distinguished, but they have a good friendship with Renly.
Because Renly has been in Hollywood for a long time, people have forgotten that Renly's "hereditary aristocracy" is not only a name, but also a real network. In addition to the high-profile Andre Hamilton and the famous Eaton Dormer, there are more and more friends scattered in all walks of life - the one thing in common is that they all grew up with elite education , they share more common language.
From charity auctions to Christmas dinners, Renly's return to London is being laid out in an orderly, step-by-step manner. At this time, people really realized that "the youngest son of the Hall family" was not incapable of returning to London, nor was he incapable of establishing himself in London. It was always just a personal choice; when he really made up his mind, even the deep-rooted Arthur Hall, seems to have become eclipsed.
The center of gravity of the Hall family has really changed.
This is a formal aristocratic private dinner, all specifications and etiquette are all carried out in accordance with tradition, and the most striking of the dinner is undoubtedly the appearance of Rooney Mara.
The leader of the new generation of actors appeared at the dinner party as Renly's female companion, and easily attracted all the attention.
It is conceivable that if the public gets such news, it will be very exciting and sensational, and it will definitely be the most important news of the year in 2014; however, the guests present are all people who cherish feathers, not to mention dealing with reporters, just Not even interested in spreading gossip in the circle, which also means that in a short time, this will still be a low-key secret - but on the other hand, the generosity of Renly and Rooney also proves that they are open to the guests present. trust, and that bond becomes stronger.
As the focus of the audience, Rooney has successfully won many admiring glances with her elegance, wit and frankness, and her debut is perfect.
Rooney, who has always been low-key, has never concealed the meaning of her "Mara" surname, but because she has never attracted widespread attention, her family background has not caused much discussion; after her debut tonight, those It was only after the staggered gaze that he realized that this was also a famous queen.
Not to mention the others, not even Renly had ever seen Rooney like this, not even on Oscar night. Rooney is like a proud peacock, always stingy to show her charm, even in the eyes of Hollywood, she did not spend too much thought; until tonight, she finally showed her charm proudly , which is impressive.
"…his eyes. The look in his eyes when he talks about movies and acting, honestly, is intoxicating; when he's standing in front of the camera and acting, that's his most charismatic moment. So, I have to admit, I took a little advantage and got in before anyone else noticed his charisma."
When Arthur deliberately "made things difficult" for Rooney in front of everyone and asked Rooney what she liked most about Renly, Rooney answered calmly and humorously, and when the answer was over, she threw at Arthur again. Went to the line of sight and asked with a smile, "I heard that the source of the rumor that Renly is the prankster king came from you. It seems that a lot of interesting things must have happened when you were young. I wonder if you would like to share some tidbits tonight. ?"
The calm counterattack, the right "threat", successfully made Arthur fall into a passive state, and he had to show a smile, and Arthur almost choked:
really! Proving once again that Renly is a complete demon! Look, the one standing side by side with Renly isn't an angel at all, it's a completely different demon!
"Don't be like this, although everyone here knows that Renly is not a gentleman, let's not aim the gun at the master." Arthur managed to dodge the crisis with a joke, and could not help but secretly wipe the sweat in his heart, As a result, Rooney smiled and raised her glass to her.
Arthur really felt that he needed to be suppressed.
Rooney showed her own alternative charm, completely different from the cold and alienated appearance. It was indeed impressive, surprise and admiration, silently moving between eye contact.
However, the biggest hit is Chris Evans - even now, he still has no way to "have a good time" with Renly; for Chris, he is somewhat indistinguishable, in the end it is more unexpectedly reckless Ni's appearance in the Prince's Garden - isn't this the best news of the year in 2014, or is it even more surprising that Rooney and Edith get along happily, the amount of information is a bit too large, and the memory in the brain begins to run out.
This made Chris even more anxious.
In particular, Rooney walked around the audience with ease, exuding her own charm. It seemed that wherever she went, she could trigger laughter. The warm atmosphere of the Christmas dinner was flowing in the warm air; and Chris was still somewhat restrained - down It can't be said to be out of place, and he is not so exaggerated, but there is still some space to unload the burden and integrate into it. The emotions intertwined with annoyance and envy, anxiety and anticipation continue to collide in his chest, and Chris begins. Unable to control his right hand reaching for champagne.
But at least, he hasn't started drinking whisky yet.
Later, Chris inadvertently stood with Renly, and by the time he realized it, it was too late to turn - it was so obvious that he could only bite the bullet and show a smile, raising his chin at Renly Gesture, enter awkward chat mode, "Rooney Mara? Really?"
Such a street dialogue mode, with a brotherly joke, was far from the atmosphere of the entire Christmas dinner, so Renly raised his eyebrows slightly, and stared at Chris with a meaningful expression, but he didn't speak. , that look seems to be saying: So what
Subconsciously, Chris's eyes began to drift to the side, covering up his embarrassment, but it seemed that the silence of the air was not very good, so he looked straight at the champagne tower not far away, Still joking, "The whole of Hollywood has been deceived by you, I really never thought..."
Pause, silence, and then abruptly added, "Above Oscar, you..." Then pause, silence, and after realizing that he was spying on Renly's privacy, he seemed to be gossiping neighbors Usually, this makes Chris feel the back of his head—hands that have nowhere to go, "...I mean, it was totally unexpected, there was no clue before, you guys are really amazing... I don't mean you guys Liar... you know what I mean..."
It doesn't seem right to say it this way, it doesn't seem right to say it that way, the last sentence is more like superfluous, Chris himself doesn't know where it came from, the words just fade out automatically like this, can't find the full stop, stop at a strange place.
Chris looked away stiffly, picked up the champagne, and poured it into his mouth again, but after only two sips, he found that another glass was empty.
"Help!"
Fortunately, Renly didn't mean to embarrass Chris, and said with a small smile, "This shows that we are all very good actors."
"Ah! Yes, yes, yes! Actors, excellent actors!" Chris found the steps and nodded in agreement, but he always felt that this sentence was strange - is it mocking every actor as a liar, or is it To ridicule his acting skills? Chris couldn't come to a conclusion for a while, and then... the words were cut off again, and there was no further text.
Renly was content, but Chris was restless.
Recently, because of Edith's affairs, Chris himself has been thinking constantly, temporarily staying away from the attention and hustle and bustle of Hollywood, really calming himself down, trying to sort out those intricate thoughts, he knows that he must face it squarely Those questions, otherwise neither he nor Edith could see the future.

But what should he do
Judging from his performance in front of Renly tonight, Chris still can't see the light of day. If it had been before, Chris might have gone to the bathroom and turned away; but he didn't want to.
"Renly, do you hate me?" Chris summoned the courage and asked boldly—in fact, he didn't know whether the question was appropriate or not, but he didn't know a better way, so he could only Choose a positive breakout. He still wishes he could be honest.
Renly raised his eyebrows slightly, and those eyes seemed to be saying: What made you think so
Chris knew that there was no turning back when he opened the bow, so he could only bite the bullet and continue, "You always seem to be targeting me, it's not that you mean it, it's just... you don't seem to like me."
"If I like you, Edith might be about to cry," Renly said solemnly.
Chris didn't understand at first, "Why do you like me, Edith has to..." He repeated it stupidly, and then caught Renly's gaze, and realized that Renly was joking - "Like", "Like" in that sense, but Chris couldn't laugh at all:
This assumption is too scary! That... that's Renly Hall!
"Renly... it's not funny." Chris was really frightened. "It's a very funny joke, but I'm not suitable for jokes right now, and if I laugh, I suspect I might just spit it out."
