"It's used to describe the subtle atmosphere of having the same idea but being too shy to speak? God, who made this question? Haruki Murakami? So subtle? Wouldn't it be better to just speak up? How could I possibly know what it was? Words? Matthew, do you have an idea?"

"...Give me a hint of the alphabet."

"All I know now is that the second letter and the fourth letter are both 'a' and that's all."

"Andre, you can fill in the other blanks first, with a little more hints, it will be much clearer. If there are only two letters, Matthew is not an Oxford dictionary. How could he directly guess?"

"Uh, Renly? Do you know? You know Asian culture, any ideas?"

"Are there any hints next to you?"

"Oh, and a note, of Latin origin."

"Latin? Then you can only hope for Matthew and Renly. My Latin has already been returned to Mr. Smith."

Such a scene is really weird. A group of young people gathered in the study room, drinking afternoon tea, eating desserts, playing...word puzzles, just like the freak students who were neglected and rejected in American high schools, who liked strange things. And then out of tune with the mainstream crowd.

Arthur's entire shoulders relaxed slightly, and then he sank deeply into the sofa, his eyelids started to fight without knowing it, the feeling of comfort and comfort made him completely indulge in it, and to be honest, a little enjoyment, It's just that he took his own word game and never started to fill it in, just quietly enjoying a moment of peace.

Turning his head, Arthur saw Renly who was concentrating on thinking about the "puzzle". After a moment of hesitation, he took the initiative to lean over, "Father called me."

"Hmm." Renly responded casually.

Arthur paused slightly. "He wants me to take over the baron's position."

"Hmm." Renly nodded slightly, still looking at the newspaper.

"What do you think?" Arthur asked hesitantly.

Renly didn't answer right away, but quickly filled in another word on the newspaper, raising his hands cheerfully, "Done!" He then leaned out and put The Times on the coffee table, "Hey, what else? Difficulties, come and come, throw them over to challenge the limit, I am the 'king of word-writing games'!"

Those naive and arrogant words deliberately used a low tone to strengthen their attitude, just like high school students, and then everyone complained and didn't buy it at all.

Renly didn't mind. He sat down again, smiling all over his face, turned to look at Arthur, and replied, "You don't need to ask my opinion. Long, long ago, I was not the heir. In the end, it's up to you to decide."

"Renly, you know it's not that simple." Arthur let out a sigh of relief, recalling the phone call with George in his mind, and his mood was extremely mixed: the father, who once thought he would never admit his mistake, was in front of him. There was a hint of weariness; but what was even more tragic was that he knew it was an illusion—

George was just testing Arthur's bottom line, and Renly's bottom line.

To put it simply, if George grants the title to Arthur, the possible result is that Renly and Arthur turn against each other, then the focus of the conflict will shift; or if Renly is willing to accept a draw, then Arthur will shelter George; Or if Renly didn't die and refused to let George go, then George could push Arthur out and fight Renly; otherwise, there were other potential possibilities, but no matter what, George could find a way out.

But there is another situation hidden behind the problem, that is, George does not want to retire at all. He is far from ready to pass the title to Arthur. He took the initiative to make such a proposal to Arthur, just to test Arthur and Just Renly:

If the situation is positive, then he can ride like a donkey - hanging the carrot in front of the donkey, let the donkey work hard, and he himself sits on the donkey's back and continues to enjoy; if the situation is negative, then he I don't mind if the fish die or the net breaks, or if I make other preparations.

Otherwise, the auction was in the morning and George called Arthur in the afternoon? Things are not so coincidental.

Arthur knew this, he believed, and Renly knew that they were not fools—

In fact, neither did George. Knowing that his intentions might be seen through, George still chose to contact Arthur so eagerly, on the one hand, because he still believes that the title is very, very important, and may even be the ultimate pursuit of Renly. This is the value of The essence is different, he will never be able to understand Renly's choice; on the other hand, it is because he needs to test Renly's bottom line before he can prepare.

No one is a fool.

Renly looked up to meet Arthur's gaze, and he could catch a hint of exhaustion and a hint of sadness.

Arthur and Renly are different. To be precise, the four children of the Hall family are in different positions. Renly can completely let go and pursue his own life, and Edith can also; but Arthur and Elf are doomed. No, because they grew up with the "successor" education, just like Alexander Hamilton, their thoughts, their values, and their concepts are all destined to be different from Renly.

Renly and Alexander respect each other, but they can't be friends, because they are often two different groups because of the three views involved.

In fact, there are still some barriers between Renly and Arthur, and after all,

It can't be like Edith, because the position is also doomed because of the concept, but at least, it is much better than Elf, they can be regarded as friends, which makes Renly consider his own words.

"Arthur, you know I don't care about titles..." Renly said.

Arthur immediately felt the alienation from Renly - he always tried to take a rational standpoint on this matter, but in fact it was from the sidelines, which made Arthur a little angry, "But he cares, he is testing my bottom line , is also testing your bottom line, we all know he won't retire now. So, it's about me and it's about you, you can't... can you..."

Arthur's words became stumbling, and then he noticed the gaze projected by Matthew, and he did not continue to speak after all.

After the anger, he still felt deeply tired, "Renly, I..." Arthur didn't know what to say, "I like you, I like everything you insist on, and I like to be by your side as a friend. , I also like your home. I like it here."

Unprepared, Arthur once again showed his vulnerability. The last time it was on Oscar night, it was because Arthur was drunk; today, Arthur is sober.

Ren Li was stunned for a moment, a mixed emotion flashed in his eyes, and then the corner of his mouth pursed slightly, "Actually, you can choose to accept it."

"What?" Arthur thought he heard it wrong, didn't understand Renly, and paused, thinking he understood Renly, "You mean, trying to test him on purpose? I just pretend I accept it, and he will Show your feet..."

"No no no, he's ready, he couldn't have not expected this situation." Renly shook his head again and again, his smile rising slightly, "I mean, you really accept. You can Take a stand in front of you, you are willing to accept it, you are willing to be the next Baron Hall, but if he doesn't want to, then this matter is over, he will stand on the opposite side of you, and things will become easier."

It's like a "general" in a chess game.

Arthur frowned slightly, "...What? You know I don't want to succeed, I...I mean, at least not yet, I hope to stay in Sisyphus, I hope to continue to serve Donji It's a lot of fun, and I'm serious."

"Arthur, I know." Facing the slightly anxious Arthur, Renly nodded slightly, calming Arthur, "I mean, you can choose what kind of Hall you want to be. Baron, you can be like George, or Viscount Bioford, and you can be like Duke Hamilton, or... like yourself."

"The times have changed, and now there is no manual to teach us what kind of aristocrat is in line with the standard, even the queen has been forced to make adjustments according to the times, let alone a small baron? We are all While studying, we are also making progress. You can decide what 'Baron Hall' will look like in the future. You can also become the backbone of our Hall family. After letting Edith and I wander outside, we can finally Find your way home."

Arthur opened his mouth slightly, Renly's words seemed very simple, but he had never considered it before, just like a fan of the authorities, he could never see where he was and the overall situation he was in. The ground kept spinning, and then the bystander revealed the simplest and most obvious truth, while his face was full of confusion and surprise:

Why haven't I seen it before?

As he spoke, Renly laughed softly, "Of course, you can still stay in Sisyphus Films. To be honest, we still need you, and there are a lot of things that Andre can't handle."

Matthew Shishi, who was sitting next to him, complained, "Does Elf know that you run against her like this?"

"I guess she's running on us too, so... this can be considered a win-win?" Renly chuckled and complained calmly, but he couldn't be sure if his statement had any reference value, because Al Fu never refused to open up, even after leaving the Halls, and their relationship was like Renly and Elizabeth for the past five years.

Maybe the future will change, maybe not. But that's life.

Renly raised his eyebrows, "Andre, did that prompt just say Latin?" Renly shouted to Andre, "You can try 'mamaihlapinatapai', I'm not sure, It's a South American branch, it's a little tricky to explain, but I think it might be, I remember reading it in a discussion article that joked about vague words in various countries, and it was an interesting discussion."

"...What?" Andre was full of question marks, "Why can't I understand the word you said at all?"

Then Eaton and Edith also complained, mixed with Andre's complaints, and the atmosphere in the study became extremely cheerful again.
