One "Thank you for shooting this work. Thank you." The middle-aged man standing in front of him, in a suit and leather shoes, was neatly dressed. Even after a journey, he was not too embarrassed. He looked like a financial executive or a tech upstart, but his eyes were slightly red, and he patted Renly's arm three times in a row, as if he wanted to say something, but his feelings were too complicated to express accurately. In the end it just turned into a "thank you".

Renly knew this was a man with a story. The story of "crazy in love" has touched a certain vulnerability in his heart, and it may even be the dilemma he is facing now. That kind of empathy made him strip away the serious and professional image of his appearance, revealing the softest part in an instant.

"My pleasure." Renly didn't say too much, because he knew better than anyone that words couldn't heal these wounds, only time. Derek Doremus was like that, and so was the middle-aged man in front of him.

The middle-aged man raised his head and noticed the warm smile on the corner of Renly's mouth. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, "Come on. I hope more people will see your work. You are a real good actor." , he lifted his boarding case and turned to leave.

Raising his head, Renly was about to take another step, but he saw a familiar figure beside the exit, a three-piece black suit with a white shirt and a dark gray vest, and a long black trench coat outside. , leaning on a black umbrella in the right hand, the delicately carved wooden handle reflects the vicissitudes of the palm like tree bark.

Nathan noticed Renly's footsteps, and was about to ask aloud when he heard a solemn and steady voice on his right, "Master Renly, welcome home."

Looking at the sound, I saw the figure of the English gentleman, like an old green pine, tall and firm, but old and vigorous. The old gentleman paced forward, stopped in front of Renly, bowed slightly, and asked with a smile, "Is everything going well on the journey?"

"Renly?" Nathan was a little unsure. First, he didn't know the man; second, he didn't look like a fan. Nathan quickly stopped Roy, who was diagonally ahead, gestured with his eyes, and asked: What's the situation? Could it be the driver sent by the crew ahead of time? But they were not notified about it.

Looking at Philip Demba standing in front of him, Renly found that he was not as surprised as he thought.

This time back in London, things were different. On the one hand, because of the news that "Edge of Tomorrow" is about to go to the UK to shoot, Warner Bros. has already released it, and the media has made public reports; on the other hand, it is because of Eaton's unveiling ceremony. At the reception, more than half of the guests around are estimated to be more than half. All are familiar faces. So Renly didn't hide his itinerary.

This will be the first time the Houghton family's youngest son will return to the London social circle and make an official appearance. Renly realized it after agreeing to Eaton, but he wasn't scared or horrified, and he didn't regret it. He won't take the initiative to go back to the Bayswater mansion, but he won't shy away from a possible head-to-head confrontation.

This year and last year are still different.

Philip showed up at the airport to pick up the plane. To be precise, this should be expected.

"It's all going well. London is still so rainy." Renly gave a sincere smile. Leaving the rest of the family aside, Renly could be her true self in front of Philip. "How about you? How are you? Are your knee problems in the rain okay?"

"Very good." Philip nodded and replied, feeling Renly's inquiring gaze, he had to add, "I went to the traditional Chinese medicine clinic for cupping only last week, and the doctor said that my condition has improved this year."

The UK is rainy all year round and Philip has always had some minor problems with his knees and joints, especially as he got older. Western medicine has no effective treatment, except surgery is surgery; but in Renly's view, this should be a pain similar to rheumatism, so it is recommended that Philip see a Chinese medicine.

After a brief greeting, Philip changed the conversation, "Where's the young master's luggage? Leave it to me. The driver is here today."

"Renly?" Nathan and Roy both sensed something was wrong, and the two walked over with worried expressions on their faces, but more confusion. "Is this someone you know?"

"Yes, this is Philip who grew up watching me." Renly gave a brief introduction, "This is Nathan, this is Roy. They are my work mates." Philip nodded politely. , but made Nathan and Roy in a hurry. Ren Li chuckled and asked directly, "Who sent the car?"

Philip looked at Renly with a troubled expression.

Renly pursed the corners of his mouth, and a smile appeared in his eyes, "You'll know when you arrive." He turned to look at Nathan, "You guys can go directly to the hotel and make your own arrangements. After the matter is over, someone will send it to you. I'm going back."

Nathan and Roy were dumbfounded, neither of them had encountered such a situation. It was Roy who took the initiative to say, "Renly, are you sure? We've made a reservation for the car and dinner."

Renly patted Roy's arm with a smile, gave him a reassuring look, and walked out quickly.

Philip nodded to the two of them respectively, and then quickly followed.

Roy and Nathan saw that Philip walked outside the door, took the initiative to open the umbrella, and stood up for Renly, only standing at the door for fifteen seconds, a black car stopped beside, Philip escort

After getting into the car with Renly, he then went around to the other side with his umbrella, opened the passenger's door, and sat in.

Involuntarily, he quickly followed, and Roy watched the black car drift away. In the blink of an eye, in the gray rain and fog that filled the sky, he could no longer see anything. The whole thing revealed a kind of weirdness, and I couldn't say why, but I always felt that something was not right.

"Roy, Renly... Has he been kidnapped?" Nathan blinked and raised a bizarre idea. In fact, there are even more terrifying conjectures in his mind, such as being controlled by an evil/religion, such as being hypnotized by a spirit... But in the final analysis, it means that the whole situation is not normal.

Roy glanced at Nathan speechlessly, "I'm not quite sure what this is all about. But I know that the car just now was a Bentley."

Bentley, the royal brand of the British royal family, of course, not only the royal family, but the top rich also have a soft spot for Bentley. But no matter what kind of possibility, the Bentley is not a car that ordinary people can afford; what's more, it is equipped with a driver, and someone picks up the plane, and the demeanor of the old gentleman just now does not look like an ordinary person.

"Bentley? Can't tell at all, isn't it an ordinary car?" Nathan recalled carefully, but he couldn't notice the luxury and dignity of the car just now.

Roy nodded and said meaningfully, "Exactly!"

For the nouveau riche or new aristocrats, they are very happy to show their wealth, and some people even deliberately show off their wealth; but for the real old-fashioned aristocrats and old-fashioned rich people, they keep a low profile and keep a low profile all the time. The luxury, even the expensive that ordinary people can't understand at all, is their living standard.

It was precisely because the Bentley was so low-key that Roy felt more and more strange. Suddenly, Roy seemed to think of something and looked at Nathan, "Do you remember how Philip called Renly?"

"Name?" Nathan didn't notice such details at all. "What's the name?"

Master Renly. That's what Philip calls it.

At this moment, Renly sitting in the car, even if he closed his eyes, he could imagine Roy and Nathan's confusion, panic, and grandeur. However, he also knew that the frequency of going to and from London was bound to increase in the future. It may not be a problem to hide from others, but to hide from Roy, Nathan and Andy around them is an impossible task. The truth will be revealed sooner or later.

Thinking of this, the corners of Renly's mouth rose up, Nathan and Roy's expressions just now were really funny.

Philip looked at Renly through the rear-view mirror, and he could sense that when he came back this time, Renly's whole mood and temperament were different, and the joy and vigor between his brows were really long gone.

Philip still clearly remembers Renly as a child, calm and wise, very precocious, but always full of enthusiasm and vitality. Renly was already studying philosophy, literature, and music while the other kids were babbling.

At that time, the family was full of high expectations. Both George and Elizabeth believed that there was a genius child prodigy in the family. They couldn't wait to show off to other noble friends, and their words were full of pride.

But Renly wasn't the kind of kid to be at the mercy of. He always responded to George and Elizabeth's expectations in a mischievous way. When they asked Renly to perform a piano piece in front of their guests, Renly would deliberately play folk songs of Robin Hood; penniless.

Guests are always amazed by Renly's talent - for a child not only to have a sense of independence, but also to have wise and sharp insights, and to be able to use all kinds of knowledge proficiently, this is not genius, that is What?

However, George and Elizabeth did not like it. Because Renly swept their face, because Renly lost the noble etiquette, and because Renly lost control. Until one day, Renly began to learn acting, gave up the "dignity" of aristocracy, gave up the "pride" of genius, and embarked on the path of an actor, which completely destroyed the bottom line of George and Elizabeth. The family relationship that never really existed, barely maintained for many years, was broken in an instant with a slight push.

It seems that since then, Philip has never seen Renly like this again: full of vigor, lighthearted, unrestrained, and even the look between his eyebrows is so beautiful.

Philip thought that Renly like that had disappeared into the airtight and lifeless atmosphere of the aristocracy, but he never thought that he would see it again in his lifetime.
