Two Hundred and Twelve, After the Hangover
"King of the Stage ()"
"...I just don't know..."
"I don't know how to communicate with the prince?"
Ronan interrupted the girl's words, and took the initiative to take over the conversation. The girl was slightly taken aback, and the smile between her eyebrows flowed out again, and the atmosphere became relaxed again. "So, it seems that you know how to communicate with the princess very well."
This time, Ronan did not correct the girl's words, but put his right hand on his left shoulder, made a knight's salute, and bowed slightly to show respect.
The corner of the girl's mouth raised, "I know that I am not very suitable for communication. Maybe you have a heartburn and just want to turn around and leave, but you are the only one at the party tonight who is willing to calm down and talk to me Man, I..." The girl paused slightly nervously, "I am very grateful."
"No, I also like this kind of conversation, at least it's more interesting than the pool conversation just now." Ronan said with a smile.
The girl lowered her head, then quietly raised her eyes, looked up at Ronan through her slightly curly hair, and whispered, "I'm glad we reached a consensus, I like you."
"..." Ronan couldn't help being slightly stunned: so direct? Wait, or did he get it wrong? After all, there are still differences between Western culture and Eastern culture. In Western culture, "I like you" and "I love you" are very common sayings, and they are also applicable between friends.
Maybe, she just wanted to express her gratitude just now?
So how should he respond? "I like you too"?
Ronan had to admit that in just a few months, he still hadn't fully adapted to the cultural atmosphere here, and he also felt that he had made a fuss over a molehill, but panic on the spot was inevitable, and the words that came to his mouth could not be said immediately. Come out, so missed the opportunity.
Crash!
There was a burst of noise, and there was another bustling whistle from the direction of the swimming pool. The booing sound of "Ho Ho Ho" was really loud, and the delicate atmosphere was immediately broken.
The girl didn't seem to think much at all. She turned her head and looked in the direction of the swimming pool, then looked at Ronan again, and extended her right hand gracefully, "Alena-Baeva."
This is self introduction?
The two of them have been talking back and forth for a long time, and it is also strange that they have not finished introducing themselves until now.
Ronan looked at the bright and playful eyes of the girl, shining brightly under the blurred night sky, and the lights of the city seemed to be dimmed, "Ronan-Cooper." Ronan also extended his right hand, He held the girl's not slender hands. Although the palms were far from rough, they could still feel the calluses in the corners of the fingertips and palms. These were hands soaked in endless sweat.
After a brief handshake and touch, then separated her hands, Alena smiled at Ronan again, lowered her head and gestured to her wet skirt, "If I don't want to make the same mistakes as Cinderella, Then you should turn around and leave now, or the magic will fail."
"I thought this wasn't a Disney story. Why did it go around and come back?" Ronan finally recovered his state, and his words became smooth again.
Alena shook her head lightly, "No, no, Disney's fairy tales and Grimm's fairy tales are two different things, not to mention, the earliest version of Cinderella should be the story of the ancient Greek girl Rhodopis, so Disney was born in the 20th century. How can there be a story about the shackles that modern society places on women?"
Ronan pursed his lips, "I have to admit, I'm really starting to worry about my IQ now."
Alena laughed cheerfully, glanced at Ronan with a sly look, but said nothing more, lifted her skirt boldly, stood on tiptoe, and walked away.
However, just after taking two steps, Alena saw Ronan holding her violin in both hands, waiting for her in a gentlemanly manner.
Alena's cheeks were slightly hot, and she said without silver here, "This is not a glass slipper."
A smile overflowed in Ronan's eyes, "It really isn't."
Alena took her violin, and finally turned and left without any hesitation this time. Her distress could be seen from her shaky little steps, and Ronan laughed happily at the sight of her back.
Turning around, looking at the faint starlight above the head again, I couldn't help but look curiously: So, where is Cassiopeia?
...
The night gradually deepened, and then the sun broke through the shackles of the night and crossed the horizon, revealing the arrival of a new day.
Ronan sat up straight, his dazed head didn't want to wake up at all, last night—no, it should be the end of the party at six o'clock this morning, and he walked lightly into the apartment room, not knowing where he was , One fell down and fell asleep directly.
After waking up from a half-dream, he found Oli among the "corpses" in the room, Maxim and Cliff, together with Oli dragged the sleeping Maxim back to the hotel, and then fell into a coma again. I fell asleep in the dark, and didn't wake up until this time because of the unbearable hunger.
In fact, the brain wanted to continue sleeping, but the rumbling stomach strongly protested, and Ronan couldn't continue to sleep.
Turning on the foraging mode, Ronan walked around the hotel, finally found the hotel's internal restaurant, sat next to the open-air swimming pool, and started stuffing things into his stomach hungrily, stuffing three burgers in a row After that, I felt a little bit of comfort, and then I slowed down, drank a big mouthful of orange juice, ate bacon and French fries slowly, and then, Alice appeared.
"Is this lunch or dinner?"
Compared to Ronan Dao's embarrassment, Alice, who had a good rest last night, looked radiant today, bathed in the dim afternoon sunshine in New York, her whole body was shining brightly, and the fatigue between her brows was completely swept away. And Sora finally recovered from his busy touring schedule.
"It depends on your mood." Ronan pushed the sunglasses on the bridge of his nose, like a vampire, and his eyes are still dark. "But I can be sure, this is just the first meal of the day."
Alice shrugged, "Fair enough." Then she also started picking up French fries and stuffing them into her mouth.
Ronan looked at the food on his plate, hesitated to speak, but finally gave up his plan to stop Alice, "Our warm-up tour is over, what are your plans next? Going back to school directly? Your graduation The design should be almost there."
"Well. In fact, the editing is almost the same." Alice nodded slightly, "The effect is better than expected, mainly because I have been walking on the road, and accidents always happen. The turbulent flow gives the image more The possibility of extension, I like this texture."
Alice paused for a moment, as if she was considering her own words, "I'm also thinking about what to do after Bruno's opening tour is over. I'm thinking now, what if I follow you guys?"
