number one supermodel
Chapter 66
This September, two events deserve the attention of people all over Great Britain.One is that Princess Kelly, the wife of Her Majesty's eldest grandson, Prince George, has been diagnosed with pregnancy and will add another new member to the royal family of Great Britain in eight months.The other thing is that Anjou Castle, which has always been open to outsiders only during the coming-of-age ceremony of the royal family members, will welcome a young master this month.
There is no country in the world where the people do not gossip, even in a place like Great Britain, which is a bit introverted and a little rigid. On the contrary, in fact, news about the royal family is what the general public likes to hear and complain about the most.
As the newspaper with the largest sales volume, the most spoof and the least fear of death in Great Britain, how could the Sun miss such a good opportunity to complain about the royal family.
On the second day after the official news was released, the Sun newspaper put the photos of the two parties into a royal national flag and printed it on the front page carelessly, with the queen in a splendid costume waving a magic wand in the corner.
While the major newspapers were scrambling to report on this royal event, the major designers who saw the right time even tried their best to please the two new darlings.Rookie designers also want to fly like Alexander Wang because of a political figure's red carpet show.The purpose of the designer who works for the brand is more clear at a glance. Not only can he show his design ability, but also greatly enhance the influence of his own brand. Why not do it.
Therefore, designing maternity wear for the princess and preparing a bar mitzvah for the young Lord Nottingham has become the number one task for designers today.
A snowflake of design drafts flew to London, and even a well-known designer publicly stated on his personal homepage that he liked Mi Le very much, and especially looked forward to a deeper cooperation with him. The words of praise made people get goosebumps one place.
Compared with Mi Le, who was inexplicably popular because of the support of big coffees before, she has attracted countless girl fans but still has not received the greatest degree of recognition.Now, the entire fashion circle is beginning to scramble for him.
Whether it's the SISLY make-up set that has become more and more popular with senior executives, or the two shows that were constantly brought up by the media at the Milan Autumn/Winter Fashion Week last time.It can be said that Mi Le has really made people in the global fashion circle remember her face.
The title of Peacock Prince given by fans at the beginning seems to be well-deserved now.
The outside media was full of quarrels, but Mi Le, who was the central figure of the topic, was extraordinarily silent as if he was in the eye of the storm.In fact, he was just sick, and he didn't have the extra strength to pay attention to those businessmen who were crackling with their abacus.
It's not a serious illness, but it looks really bad.He was angry, and there was also a reason why he didn't have a good rest due to the upside-down day and night schedule and jet lag during this period of time.
After Arthur Windsor knew that he fell ill, he repeatedly asked Mi Le to go home to live in. After Mi Le coldly refused, he sent several servants to the hotel to take care of him.The servants are all generations of servants of the Duke of Nottingham, and they are absolutely loyal to their masters.As Mi Le was their future little master, they would naturally not do anything that would put him in trouble.Therefore, the exact location of Mi Le was not known to outsiders until the day when Anjou Castle was decorated with lanterns and festoons, and the gates were filled with riches and magnificence.
Compared with Queen Charlotte's Ball, a coming-of-age ceremony ball for ladies with nothing but the name of the Queen, this time the private banquet held at the Castle of Anjou has improved by more than one level.
Compared with the coming-of-age ceremony of princes and princesses, the banquet specifications are slightly lower, but they will not lose face at all.The guests attending the banquet constituted almost an all-star lineup of high society in Great Britain.The appearance of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and her husband Prince Philip triggered a small climax.
Her Majesty personally presided over the coming-of-age ceremony for Mi Le, and Duke Edward, as a witness, put on the silver cufflinks engraved with the family crest for Mi Le.
The media was not allowed to broadcast the banquet live, but photographers were allowed to take pictures after lowering the requirements.
Mi Le pursed his lips and toasted and took a photo with many people who seemed to be close friends for many years when they met for the first time. Finally, he was overwhelmed and took advantage of Duke Edward and Arthur to find a quiet place to hide secretly when they were talking with others. .
Holding a wine glass and hiding in the corner of the balcony, the early autumn breeze finally dissipated the smell of cosmetics and perfume all over my body.
The fragrant clothes and shadows on the temples, the charming drunken gold fans.Mi Le held the glass with his left hand, and stroked the cuff with his right hand, the warm light dappled and dreamy in the corner of his eyes.Or, in fact, all this seems so unreal.Everything shrouded in warm yellow and dazzling lights.
Ladies and ladies who never show their teeth when they smile, gentlemen who don’t let people five feet away hear them even if they talk happily, elites with elegant taste and few jewelry but absolutely priceless, pay attention to ancient etiquette, Nobility of blood and taste.
The head of state of the Commonwealth is the grandmother; a bunch of princes and princesses are cousins; the duke who holds a handful of noble titles and is wealthy is the grandfather; the pervert who can make a private island to imprison people with a single shot is the elder brother; Anyone who comes over to chat intimately is a genius who can kill Xueba in seconds.
If someone told him half a year ago that he would become such a person in the not-too-distant future, he would definitely laugh until his stomach ached and send that person to the hospital to have a good look at his brain.
It's just that now, these things happened to him like a legend, which made him feel inexplicably that everything was just a dream.Especially when Huo Chengan started to alienate him, this fear became more and more luxuriant.He even doubted whether this was a Truman's world created to entertain the public.Huo Cheng'an finally got away coldly after getting tired of playing the affectionate young master Pian Pian.Originally, Mi Le had no confidence in liking Huo Cheng'an, but now that he thinks about it, is he still too tender and naive?How could the clan's children who needed to inherit the family business put their feelings into the hands of a man.
Thinking of this, Mi Le couldn't help but tighten her brows no matter how much she tried to force a smile.He turned around, his eyes fell on Huo Cheng'an who was talking with others through the vast hall.
Arthur Windsor is a person who will definitely do what he says. Ever since the moment at the ball, Mi Le has never seen even Huo Chengan in the camera during this period.He seemed to be thinner, his gray-black tie didn't have a collar clip, and he looked unhappy all over his body.
Mi Le smiled wryly and took a sip of the wine, thinking that maybe she was forced to come here by the elders.
The man standing next to him was smiling slightly, and those bright peach eyes seemed to dazzle the lights in this room. Mi Le felt that the man's face was familiar, and after thinking about it, he realized that he was the one he met in the hotel that day. Chinese neighbors?I thought it was just a chance meeting, but I didn't expect to meet in such a place, and what I didn't expect was that he seemed to be very close to Huo Chengan.
Clenching the neck of the cup tightly with her fingers, for a moment a trace of tyrannical anger suddenly appeared in Mi Le's heart.The long neck of the goblet snapped in two with a creak.
"Sir, sorry to bother you, may I get some air here."
"Yes, ma'am. You go ahead."
The swell of anger that hadn't come yet was dispelled by a female voice. Mi Le suppressed the little panic in his heart and put on a gentle smile to meet him, but he didn't expect to see another face related to Huo Cheng'an.
Shi Shiran, a woman in ElieSaab's rouge-pink silk pearl-embellished tube top dress, was standing at the entrance of the balcony holding a glass of red wine. The peach pink on her cheeks was either from drunkenness or blush.
Isabel Landermott, a socialite from New York's Upper East Side.A daughter of a family who grew up in the United States but is not very American.First-class appearance, first-class family background, and most importantly, she is a woman. For Huo Chengan, her natal family can bring him a lot of benefits.The engagement of two people seems to be such a talented man and a woman.
"I didn't expect it to be you, mylord. Sorry to disturb your rest, I hope you will forgive me."
"No apology, Ms. Landermott, I am not hogging this balcony, nor will I hog the view, it is for you, me and everyone else to enjoy. So you don't have to apologize. I hear you are getting engaged soon , I haven't congratulated you yet."
"Thank you very much for your blessing, mylord." Isabel smiled wryly, looked back at the ball hall, and took a sip of her wine.
"You don't seem very satisfied, well, I mean, your fiancé is a good man, and you are perfect. You are a perfect match."
"It's a great honor to receive your compliments, mylord. My fiancé, he is indeed a rare man, and I like him very much. I even proposed this marriage to him. My father didn't agree , only reluctantly agreed after my repeated requests. I knew he was afraid that my married life would not be happy, after all, marrying a desolate man would not be so optimistic about the future. "
Isabel flicked her hair: "I consider myself a charming woman. I thought that as long as I don't let go, men will always understand how good I am as a woman."
Mi Le blinked, feeling that Isabel's words were a bit strange.
"I thought I was gentle, I was elegant, and I gave him all support. He would like me in the end. Then I realized that there was someone in his heart, and no matter what I did, I couldn't impress him."
Isabel's voice was trembling, Mi Le thought that she was about to cry.
"He told me that he would never fall in love with me, and that his engagement with me was only for the benefit of the two families. The person he likes is a man, and it will only be that one."
Mi Le's heart skipped a beat, and his whole heart was raised at this moment.Isabel said that Huo Chengan really liked a man!
Whether it was ridiculed for being sentimental or naive, it was undeniable that Mi Le hoped to hear his name from Isabel, or, there was no such a man at all.His fingers twisted tightly around the goblet in tension.It feels like waiting for the final judgment.
"That person is his classmate in college. They dated for a long time, but in the end it still didn't work out. He has always been obsessed with the man who left him. I know that men are always like this. It's the best." Isabel looked sadly at Mi Le's eyes, those blue glazed eyes were filled with tears, ready to fall.
"There are too many people who want to climb into his bed, and there is no shortage of me. And the person who let go of his hand first, I am afraid that he will remember him forever. In this way, how can I win." Isabel said and covered her hands face, there was a burst of sobbing from between her fingers.
Mi Le didn't know how to describe his mood at this moment, it was probably the feeling of being thrown into a frozen lake.He opened his mouth to comfort Isabel, but he was completely speechless.He came to comfort this woman, so who will comfort him.Does this mean that he has been broken in love indirectly?
"I'm really sorry, Your Excellency. I don't know why I'm suddenly so sad. I'm really sorry for saying so many strange things in front of you." Isabel wiped away her tears and forced a self-deprecating smile.
"Ms. Landermott is willing to say these heartfelt words to me. I am very happy. Be happy, everything will be fine. At least you have your lover now, right? And that man has already left." Mi Le said .
Isabel drank the red wine in the glass, sighed and shook her head: "That person is back, back."
Mi Le was startled, and followed Isabel's line of sight, and was shocked to find that the man Isabel mentioned was the one standing next to Huo Chengan, that Chinese man, Eric Yang!
"I heard that His Excellency also has half oriental blood, which is a bit similar to that man." Isabel smiled lonely, turned her eyes back and forth, and said half-jokingly.
"My mother is Chinese." Mi Le's hand hanging behind her had already clenched into a fist, and her nails were deeply embedded in her palm.
He does not mean that.No matter what the original meaning of Isabel's words was, it was automatically transformed into a hint in Mi Le's ears.A hint that you're just an optional double.
This sentence was like a nightmare, lingering in his mind, and his headache was about to explode.
"Your Excellency? Your Excellency? Are you all right?"
"……fine."
"Your face looks very worrying, do you need me to call a doctor for you? I remember that there was a very famous medical leader at the banquet."
"Don't worry, Ms. Landermott. We've been out for too long, it's time to go back." Mi Le smiled softly and waved to the waiter not far away.
Yes, I am really stupid.Huo Chengan was still Catherine's boyfriend when he met him.And I was just a poor boy who couldn't even eat. He was dressed in street clothes, with a plain face, and he was busy all day long with a small oil bottle.How could Huo Cheng'an think of someone like himself?As for himself, he foolishly relied on him, foolishly taking it for granted.Sure enough, this world will not let anyone have smooth sailing forever.
"Wake up too." Mi Le looked at Huo Cheng'an, whose back was facing her, and muttered to herself, not knowing whether she was reminding Isabel or admonishing herself.
Mi Le turned around and put the broken glass on the waiter's tray, the corners of his eyes gradually turned cold.
On this day when she finally grows into an adult who can take care of herself, Mi Le finally tastes the feeling of her heart being hollowed out.It was more helpless pain and discomfort than when I reluctantly sent my daughter away.But so what, can he force Huo Chengan to like him, can he be like Arthur and kidnap someone directly to an isolated island to put on an anklet, can he give up his dignity and himself like a poor wretch? Is it upside down?
He is Mi Le, he can be cruel to himself.He knew that if he was not strong, who should see the tears.
There is no country in the world where the people do not gossip, even in a place like Great Britain, which is a bit introverted and a little rigid. On the contrary, in fact, news about the royal family is what the general public likes to hear and complain about the most.
