Outside, Daisy was in a hurry.

No one answered after knocking for so long, aren't you at home?But there was a loud bang.

She turned her head and smiled distressedly at Jordan who came with her.

Daisy came to see Tom.Or you can put it this way, using Tom as an excuse to come here to see Nick and ask for some news.They wanted to come over a few days ago, but Nick didn't pay attention when he received the call.

This is an oolong.

Nick and Gatsby had already stepped back inside the house, so Daisy and Jordan saw nothing.Peeping is a very unladylike behavior, but Jordan is very interested in holding the window and reaching out to push it.

The wind-beaten windows bounced back.

"Ah!" Retribution.Jordan touched his sore hand and looked at Daisy resentfully.I thought how I could find Tom here.

"I remember Tom said that he wanted to go to the club with Nick. Nick must know where he went." Daisy said with certainty, as if she really came here only for Tom, not for anything else.

It was a mistake to come with her.Jordan turned around and smiled mockingly.

It's thundering.

It looks like it's going to rain, so go home early.Jordan covered his forehead with his hand strap, and said anxiously to Daisy: "Maybe Tom has already gone home, let's go." On the way here, she was excitedly imagining what kind of place Nick lived. A romantic pastoral cottage seems to be nothing more than that now.

It is not as pleasing to the eye as the tower next to it.

Jordan actually got interested.It's a pity that it's going to rain and can't stay here for a long time, so she grabbed Daisy and urged: "Hurry up and get in the car."

Daisy looked at the small wooden shed again before retreating reluctantly.

The driver, Ferdy, who came by car, took them away.

When the sound of the wheels faded away, the rain poured down.

Gatsby and Nick in the room were guessing nervously, and soon after hearing the sound of rain, Gatsby said, "Let's go."

No matter what, there is no need to be afraid, anyway, I have already returned to the bathroom.

Nick was panting every time he took a step back, and he pinched his ear narrowly.

Nick cried out hastily.

Gatsby smiled wickedly and lowered his body.

……

After about an hour, they returned to the bedroom in their bathrobes.Gatsby looked at Nick and put his arms around his waist.

Nick murmured, giving a slight push.

Gatsby hooked him persistently.

After sleeping for several hours, when Gatsby opened his eyes, it was already seven o'clock in the evening.

There was another knock on the door.

Gatsby listened for a while, then put on his slippers and went to pull the door.

Outside the door, Herzog bent down respectfully, saw him in a white robe, and said without changing his face, "Congratulations, sir."

Gatsby was stunned for a while before he understood the cold humor of the other party, he couldn't laugh or cry: "Why are you here?"

The knock on the door had a fixed signal, and if no one responded three times, Herzog would walk away quietly.But tonight he was clearly in the right place.He took out a few cards from his pocket and handed them to Gatsby: "Sir, these are people who want to know you." Obviously, Gatsby's wealth and mystery are also very attractive to "fans", although these are huge Most of them just want to take advantage of him.

Gatsby took it over and flipped through it. The first few were just boring sons, or they were sluts looking for fun, which was useless.The last one seems to be some duke.Herzog's shadow blocked the light, and he couldn't see clearly.

Herzog moved a few steps wisely.Gatsby put them in his pocket.He said briefly, "Is there anything else?"

Herzog knew it was because he was afraid of waking Nick up.In this case, let's make a long story short: "A car wandered around our garden in the afternoon. I don't know its purpose. Fortunately, it passed by soon, but it stopped in front of this small wooden shed. I saw two women coming from Get out of the car, sir, are they bothering you?"

Gatsby immediately thought of Daisy.And Jordan.Jordan's observation skills are sharper, so he probably won't find anything.

He fell silent.

Herzog observed the situation, and nodded his head after a while: "There are very few people who don't know your name. I'm afraid it will be difficult to hide it."

He clearly regards Daisy and Jordan as admirers of Gatsby.

Gatsby hastily ordered: "Leave them alone, remember, I am not the identity people see now."

"Yes, sir." "Transformation" is indeed interesting, and Herzog also wants to see how the people he fools will react.

Gatsby sent him away.When I went back to my room, I wanted to take a closer look at the business card.

At this time, Nick just woke up and seemed to find something.

Gatsby touched his chin in a concealed manner, walked quickly to the side of the bed, and planted a kiss on his cheek: "Since you're awake, do you want to continue, my dear?"

Gatsby said, turning Nick over again.

Nick knew it was useless to object, so let him do.It's just a little sad in my heart: "Have they left?"

"Huh?" Gatsby realized that Nick was talking about Daisy and Jordan, smiled and said, "Didn't you leave long ago?"

Nick was in a trance, glanced at the clock on the bedside table, and realized that he had slept for a long time.Today's encounter made him very tangled.

When he and Gatsby were enjoying the pleasure of fish and water, he did not forget what the opportunity was.If Tom hadn't suddenly dragged him to the small apartment, maybe he was still struggling with shyness.

It's all Gatsby, the "liar".Nick turned his neck and looked at him again.

Gatsby took the opportunity to bite on it.

"Um... ah." Nick had to look away from him.Close your eyes, but think of Daisy again.

Do you want to tell her about going to the small apartment today?Tom and Myrtle were so absurd, it would be too poor if Daisy didn't know anything.

Nick thought very simply, and soon Gatsby made him unable to distract himself.

It took another half an hour. After finishing his work, he went to the bathroom to take a shower, and then went to cook. After a "busy" day like this, he was very hungry.

Fortunately, there were ready-made ingredients in the kitchen. Gatsby made a dish of borscht, baked a few buns, and served it up.Nick took a sip and was pleasantly surprised to find that it was better than him.

Gatsby opened his chair and sat down, suddenly a business card fell out of his pocket.

Nick picked it up, a little surprised.

In addition to a long list of names on the business card, the qualifications are written on the back: Duke of Windsor.

Is an Englishman.Only the royal family or relatives of the royal family can be dukes in the UK, and Windsor is just the name that the royal family has just changed.

Nick froze.

"Oh, it's nothing. I picked up a small card on the road today. I thought it was interesting, so I kept it." Gatsby quickly snatched it, and after a glance, it was indeed the Duke of Windsor.

Because of time travel, he certainly knows who the Duke of Windsor is. This person is a member of the British royal family. He is 28 years old and will inherit the British throne in 1936. He is known as "Edward VIII" in history, but he has been in power for a short time. to a year.

It turned out that the royal family came to the door?Gatsby thought this was a fantasy.

But now he can only pretend that nothing happened.Because Nick was still looking at him.

Nick stared cautiously for a few seconds and then smiled, concentrating on his meal.

Time passed quietly.

Nick, who was clearing the plates, glanced in the direction of the sofa inadvertently: "Oh."

How ignorant do they have to be to keep the microphone on the ground.

Nick quickly picked it up and carefully put it back in place.I thought to myself, no wonder I feel uncomfortable all the time, it seems that something is going to happen.

After hanging up the microphone for a few minutes, he yelled sharply.

Nick picked it up nervously.Over there was his father's furious cry: "What the hell is going on with you!"

Mr. Calloway has been on the phone all day, from morning to night, of course he is very angry.

Since being startled by Nick's "don't like women" last time, Mr. Calloway has been reflecting on what he did wrong this week and concluded that he is not wrong.Nick couldn't be abnormal, just occasionally rebellious.

Mr. Calloway is persistent in doing what he thinks is right.He shouted: "What on earth do you want? Don't you think life's major events are not important? You are both 30 years old, and you are still a virgin. Don't you feel ashamed?"

Not a few hours ago.Nick thought, looking at Gatsby with some shame.
