Jessica has always been enthusiastic about the progress of the relationship between Richard and Benjamin, and she really cares more about her own children.

Seeing her eagerness to do it herself, Gloria couldn't help teasing her: "Jessica, you are such a good mother."

Jessica choked, then nodded with a sad face: "Yes, I know." She has already seen it, maybe she is the one who is alone among the fifteen people, if there is no flower of love, it seems that the fruit of some friendship is not too bad.

She glanced at Gloria quietly, and sparks came to her heart, she thought: For so long, except for James and Richard, two fellow countrymen who have always been together and have their own hearts, It seems that Gloria has never had much interaction with anyone else. If it has always been like this, when the final tally is made, I will not be the only one who is alone and unloved!

Jessica couldn't help grinning, a little happy, she turned this idea around in her head a few times, and felt that something was wrong intellectually for a moment, but she was excited about being single with someone, and for a while She didn't bother to think about it; besides, the couple she had been watching closely had finally moved today.

——In the morning, she saw Benjamin go to the housekeeper, and then disappeared for a day. Just now, the housekeeper suddenly stuffed Richard with a note. After reading the note, Richard hesitated for a while, then got up and went outside Walking in the garden, this is obviously a signal, either Benjamin is back and ready to attack, or someone else is planning to take advantage of it. At this time, she must cheer up and keep an eye on it. If the situation is not right, she has to save the scene. Benjamin must not be allowed to be confused again at critical moments.

Gloria rolled her eyes. She didn't quite understand where Jessica got so much energy to worry about other people's feelings. Is it really the overflowing maternal love? But when Jessica took her to observe secretly, she didn't refuse for some reason. Maybe she is also a gossip and enthusiastic person at heart?

The garden in the evening is beautiful, but there are a little more mosquitoes. Gloria waved her hand quietly to repel the mosquitoes, Jessica felt the wind in the back of her head, turned her head and gave her a "shush", and then turned her head away in a race against time.

Through the dense tall grass, it can be seen from a distance that the two are standing face to face. One is Richard, and the other looks familiar from the back, but when he turns his face, he is completely unfamiliar. Jessica's heart was full of alarm bells. Could it be that a staff member of the program group fell in love with Richard and wanted to "guard himself"? ! Is this allowed by the rules?

Gloria grabbed Jessica from behind and told her not to rush out. Although she also doubts the identity of the strange man, she is not as persistent as Jessica in making Richard and Benjamin a couple. Richard still has thoughts about Benjamin, but if someone better If a more suitable man pursued Richard, she would still be happy to see him succeed.

The man in front of her was younger than Benjamin, and more handsome than Benjamin. Although he was dressed in denim, he was obviously more attractive than Benjamin in every way. If she had to choose between Benjamin and this man, she would definitely choose this man without hesitation.

Jessica was anxious for Benjamin, but it was undeniable that Gloria was right: she was just a bystander, so what qualifications did she have to make decisions for Richard? Thinking of this, she had no choice but to hold back and stare at the front with all her attention. But out of the obsession of an "old mother", she hoped that Benjamin would appear as soon as possible. After all, that man's image condition is really good, and even she, a steel lesbian, looks more and more pleasing to the eye, and Richard can't stand the temptation even more. If he comes late, he may never have a chance again.

In this room, Jessica and Gloria are worried about their own mothers, and the other is watching the play seriously, and they both pricked up their ears and listened hard; on the other side, Richard's doubts after experiencing the initial confusion Then he was unbelievably shocked when he recognized the other party's voice, and he had already experienced a great shock in his heart. He almost cried out: "Benjamin?! You, what?" The

young cowboy touched his chin, which was smooth and clean. , making him a little unaccustomed to it. Without the cover of the beard, the shy expression on his face was clearly seen by others, he couldn't help but wiped his face again, and said with a silly smile: "Is the change too big? I'm not used to it, I always feel strange, it doesn't seem like I am anymore."

Richard carefully looked at Benjamin, who had shaved and cut his hair, and seemed to have changed into a new suit, feeling a little complicated. It has to be said that the current Benjamin is much more eye-catching than the previous image. If he saw this Benjamin at the beginning, maybe there would be no such bad relationship between him and James.

Benjamin stood obediently for Richard to watch. He secretly watched Richard's expression, feeling excited and nervous. He has not experienced this feeling for more than 20 years, and he suddenly relived it at this moment, as if he returned to his youth in an instant

. What he carries with him is only his courage and determination to put aside the past and start again, as well as his full of expectations and longings, apprehension and uneasiness.

He couldn't help but be nervous. This was a gamble after he thoroughly recognized his heart, and he should have the realization that if he doesn't succeed, he will be benevolent; but at the same time, he was not so nervous because he knew that he really loved Richard. He will never give up lightly just because of a failure, so strictly speaking, he does not only have this chance.

Richard recovered from his gaffe, took a step back, and praised with a smile: "This is pretty good, very handsome." He didn't ask why Benjamin suddenly changed his appearance, it wasn't that he didn't care, but he just felt that it had nothing to do with him, and there was no need to do anything extra.

Benjamin took a step forward, not only making up for the distance that Richard deliberately opened, but also getting closer. Now this distance is a bit dangerous.

Richard looked at the lake-green eyes of the man who was half a head taller than him, and couldn't help but feel withdrawn, which contained strong emotions that he didn't dare to delve into. He lowered his head and put his hands in his trouser pockets.

Benjamin wanted to touch the top of Richard's hair, because the way he lowered his head to escape looked very much like the angry brown-haired lop rabbits on his farm.

He smiled, first apologized, and only when Richard raised his head and looked at him in surprise, did he speak out what had been brewing in his heart.

He said: "I'm sorry I couldn't give you a good date. In fact, I wanted to confess to you that day. Don't be surprised, I have planned this since a long time ago. You are so charming and cute. And so...sexy, like a flower, and I'm like the turquoise stalk under the torus, inconspicuous and invisible to everyone. I'm too insecure, so I just want to put you on me as soon as possible "

I'm a clichéd person, and I don't have any romantic talent. In order to make the scene as decent as possible, I designed a music dance, a talk show confession, and a light sign to show love that I didn't have time to show later. I want you to see me with humor, me with grace, all of me...but I'm so stupid that I never figured out what was wrong with me until recently."

"I'm having a bad day. In How happy and sweet we are when we are together, how sad and painful we are when we are separated, I think about you all the time. Seeing you turn a blind eye to me, seeing you getting closer and closer to others, my heart is pierced like a knife. I I have thought in despair countless times: I am afraid that I am really going to lose you, and I am afraid that I will never get you back..." He stared deeply at Richard, with deep sadness hidden in his eyes.

Richard is a very emotional person. He already had feelings for Benjamin, but now he can't help being moved when he hears the other party say this, and the barrier and rejection in his heart have also faded a bit.

Benjamin clearly captured this slight change, and was greatly encouraged in his heart. He put away his sad feelings and said seriously: "Little R, I know your concerns. I was confused before, but now I finally see my heart clearly. I can promise you very responsibly that you have never been a substitute for anyone, not in the past, not now, and even less likely in the future. You are you, the light in my life, and the lover I want to spend the rest of my life with. Reason Chad, I really can't live without you."

He took the initiative to take two steps back, spread his arms, looked at Richard, and said, "Look, this is my determination."

"The man in front of you is a Brand new Benjamin, but a real Benjamin. He's not handsome, young, or romantic, and of course he'll learn to be a romantic in the days to come. He's just a bad cowboy, but he wants to Make any changes for you, he is willing to do everything he can to give you a comfortable life, he wants you to feel free and happy every minute and every second. Such a man is standing in front of you now, sincerely praying Looking at you, are you willing to start over with him?" Benjamin's voice was trembling, his palms were already sweating, but he forcefully stood up straight and anxiously waited for Richard's answer.

Richard's eyes gradually turned red, and he blinked quickly, trying to stop the tears that were about to burst out of his eyes, but the subsequent wetness on his cheeks exposed his disguise. He was a little aggrieved, but also very happy. He stared at Benjamin for a long while with tears hanging from his mouth, then suddenly punched Benjamin on the chest, his voice hoarse: "Why did it take you so long to come to me! What if I really What should I do if my empathy is gone!"

Benjamin was heartbroken, so he hugged him, bowed his head and kissed his forehead, and said "I'm sorry, I'm here" over and over again while kissing.

Richard also hugged Benjamin tightly. He hugged him so hard, the muscles on his shoulders and arms swelled up, even a man like Benjamin, who was used to beating on the farm since he was a child and has already been raised with rough skin and thick flesh, faintly felt a little bit of it. pain. But Benjamin was not willing to end the hug. He raised the corners of his lips, and only thought in his heart: longer, longer...

In the end, it was Richard who calmed down first. It was hard for him to wipe his tears with Benjamin's shirt once, so he let go and held up his sleeve to wipe his eyes. Benjamin quickly grabbed his hand and took out a handkerchief to help him She wiped her tears and held that hand again, refusing to let go.

Richard blushed a little, but didn't break free. Feeling the fullness of the gaps between the fingers of his right hand, he murmured in a low voice: "Who still carries a handkerchief, it's old-fashioned."

Benjamin didn't hear clearly, and he folded the handkerchief neatly and put it back in his jacket pocket , then shook the hands they were holding, and asked: "Dear boyfriend, this old cowboy who is neither handsome nor romantic wants to invite you to have dinner with him, would you like to give him this chance?

Richard couldn't help laughing, looked at him with a smile, and said, "He's lucky today, so I'll give him some face, but there is one thing I need to correct. " Richard smiled with crooked eyes and narrowed his face, and continued, "Stop saying that you are an old cowboy who is neither handsome nor romantic, you are obviously handsome."

Benjamin was stunned for a moment, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "Then you think I am Is it old and not romantic?"

Richard thought about it, and said tactfully: "Age doesn't matter, I like mature ones, as for not being romantic, I believe you will learn it later, right?"

Benjamin didn't know what to say Well, I can only nod helplessly with a smile. Richard smiled contentedly and pulled Benjamin back, who now had the urge to show off his "new" boyfriend to everyone in the villa. Benjamin stopped him and said that he had already booked a restaurant outside, and the time was right now.

Richard narrowed his eyes when he heard the words, and pretended to be angry and said, "So you have already calculated it."

Benjamin even said "I dare not", and pushed everything into the arrangement of fate. "Hold your hands high", the two went out happily arm in arm.

Jessica, who secretly watched the whole process from the sidelines, was so moved that she watched the two get back together and walked away affectionately, so she let go of her hand covering her mouth and cried loudly , Gloria was a little disgusted seeing her crying, but at the same time she was happy for Benjamin and Richard.

Jessica wiped the tears on her face with her hands. In order not to dazzle her eye makeup, she raised her head and widened her eyes. Instead, she carefully wiped her lower eyelids with her thumbs, although she tried her best to be a delicate girl. , but her unconsciously opened mouth made her whole face look rather funny. Gloria couldn't bear to look straight away, but she suddenly had the idea of ​​"buy a handkerchief and take it with you in case of emergencies".

Jessica wiped away her tears and calmed down, but the excitement in her heart could not be calmed down for a long time. She grabbed Gloria and insisted on dragging her to have a drink or two. Gloria couldn't resist her, so she reluctantly followed her to the restaurant.

Now it is Andrew's team who are on duty in the kitchen.

Since the last time Andrew and Lindsay had a conflict because of the order of priority and reconciliation, Andrew has never done anything like using the kitchen as a second bedroom and never leaving it late at night.

Not only that, he was no longer as cautious or nervous when treating the tenants who came to dine. Like today, Jessica and Gloria missed the group dinner because they were busy listening to the corner. When they entered the restaurant, Andrew had already taken off his apron, fixed his hair, and was about to go out on a date with Lindsay on his arm. go. When he met them, he just informed them that "there are leftover puff pastry in the refrigerator, you can warm it up in the microwave", and then followed Lindsay out with a smile. Long life is like two people.

Of course, everyone is very happy for Andrew to be able to grow into what he is today, because one of the most prominent signs of a confident person is the ability to bravely express his reasonable demands and reject the unreasonable demands of others. It's getting better and better. Even occasionally, everyone will miss the "Chef Ann" who was responsive.

There are many types of wine in the wine cabinet in the kitchen, which is actually open to all tenants. Jessica picked and found a bottle that was not too strong, and Gloria and Gloria each drank a glass of puff pastry.

Aged fine wines are characterized by softness in the mouth, sweet aftertaste, high energy and long-lasting effect. At the beginning, the two only felt that the wine was weak and weak, but as they drank, water ripples appeared in front of their eyes. Heavenly Immortal, the floor is wobbling as if it is floating on water, making it untenable. You have to hold on to something to barely stand on your feet.

Both of them couldn't straighten their tongues, and knew that the wine could not be drunk anymore, so they stood up with difficulty and helped each other to send each other back to the room to rest. But when they stumbled up the second floor and entered Gloria's room together, no one came out for a whole night.

The duty officer staring at the screen in the monitoring room stared wide-eyed in shock at the two entangled figures faintly visible in the dark picture of room 2-2. She hurriedly called the assistant director, and cut off the monitoring signal after getting approval. At this time, the two people in the room had already rolled from the bed to the ground, and the scene was so intense that it seemed like a life-and-death war was going on.

The staff on duty covered his blushing cheeks, and couldn't help gossiping in his heart: Can it be less intense, after all, it's a top battle about women's face, and in the end, I don't know who will win?

The author has something to say: I looked up Richard's nickname today, and I cried, little R baby, I'm sorry, I'll think twice before I name it next time...
