31.

Before coming to the Bute family, Sun Du knew that nobles with titles in England generally owned their own manors.When he was doing nothing on the plane, he chatted with Xie Tang about his family.

He used to follow Du Shaoyu, and Xie Zhou had also seen the world, and knew that British nobles usually had their own manors, but he didn't expect the Bute family's manor to be so big.

It has been about ten minutes since he and Xie Tang entered the extended and modified car, and they have not yet reached the area of ​​the main house.

Sun Du looked out of the car window, and saw neatly trimmed shrubs and bushes on top of a piece of green grass, and he could faintly see the blue lake in the distance.He simply admired the scenery, neither excited nor surprised, calm as if he had seen such a scenery thousands of times.

"Xie Tang, how long is it?" Sun Du turned to look at Xie Tang and asked.The rare blue sky and white clouds in England were imprinted in his eyes, looking sparkling.

Ever since he succeeded in climbing the bed, Sun Du no longer called Xie Tang Young Master Xie, but called him Xie Tang by his first name.

Xie Tang raised his eyebrows in surprise a few times at first, but he didn't reject him, so he let him go.

When Sun Du yelled "Xie Tang, Xie Tang" like a cat on the bed, he yelled his name stickily, which made him feel a bit novel.This was the first time I heard someone call his name so ambiguously.

"Soon." Xie Tang put down the newspaper in his hand, took off his glasses and put them in the glasses case, reached out and rubbed his temples, and closed his eyes a little tiredly.

Before he could knead it, Sun Du posted it.Next to Xie Tang, he stretched out his hand to press the back of Xie Tang's head, rather annoyed, "Why are you still looking at things in the car?"

The strength of his massage was just right, even if he pressed the painful spot on the back of Xie Tan's head, it would not mess up his hair.

Xie Tang let go of his hands, with a rare look of tiredness on his face. He looked at Sun Du with no emotion in his eyes, and said lightly, "There are a lot of things to do."

Then he closed his eyes again.

Sun Du leaned sideways on Xie Tang's shoulder, quietly watching Xie Tang's long eyelashes drooping, and continued to hold Xie Tang's eyelashes without making a sound.

Everyone else knew that Xie Tang was born into a wealthy family, and he was already the mainstay of the financial world in his thirties.

But few people would know how regular and boring Xie Tang's life is. Every day, he completes the arrangement on the itinerary without making any mistakes.Sometimes the people below made some troubles, and he had to take up his rest time to solve them.

It is said that people who are born at the end are not terrible, but those who are born at the end and climb up.

About 10 minutes later, a castle with a traditional Western-style stone wall structure came into Sun Du's eyes. He said it was a castle, but it was not so dreamy.

The main building of this castle seems to have four floors, and the main color is still the blue-gray color of the stone, but the top of the castle is a simple and elegant blue half dome.Spreading on both sides of the main building, there is a row of square buildings, which look very neat and orderly.The castle was arranged in an enveloping structure, and Sun Du looked at it from a distance, and estimated that the center of the castle was still a relatively large open space.

Just like on the way here, he looked at the castle with calm appreciation in his eyes.

The car stopped slowly, Xie Tang opened his eyes, he looked at Sun Du, and then took Sun Du's hand on his thigh.

His deep blue eyes don't know why, since he returned to England, they have become more blue. If it was a lonely deep sea before, now it is a deep sea with a little sunshine.

Sun Du raised his eyebrows in surprise, but this surprise was only fleeting, and he smiled familiarly at Xie Tang.

After the car door was opened by the Filipino maid, Xie Tang took Sun Du's hand and calmly led him out of the car.

The Filipino maid who opened the door for Xie Tang was wearing a very dark red uniform. The uniform was well cut and embroidered with dark gold complicated patterns. The Filipino maid was originally a very popular Caucasian appearance, because the clothes looked quite energetic.

When he saw Xie Tang pulling Sun Du out of the car with his own hands, his eyes widened in surprise, and when Sun Du came out, he immediately lowered his head and waited for the lead.

After getting out of the vehicle, Sun Du had a clear view of the Bute family manor. In front of the castle was a large lawn that required walking, on which were piled up various haystacks in the shape of animals. Behind the lawn was a huge circular fountain pool.

In the center of the pool is a lifelike female sculpture. She lowers her eyebrows and looks gently at the ground.The water flowed silently around her arms holding the flowers.

After crossing the fountain, it is the main house.

"Why do they look like animals?" Sun Du curiously asked Xie Tang, who was walking in front of him, since he got off the car, he stopped letting Xie Tang hold his hand, but held Xie Tang's right hand rather intimately. arm.

He also thought that a noble family with a long history like the Bute family would decorate themselves more solemnly.

Xie Tang didn't pull him down, and walked his own way as usual, and then said with a little helplessness, "Natalie likes it."

That is, his grandmother liked the kind of animal haystacks that detracted from the dignity of the Bute family.

Sun Du chuckled, he also let go of Xie Tang's hand, and walked a little behind him.

He also knows how to maintain the etiquette of a lover, what kind of talk does that sound like when you go to someone else's main house and come in with hugs in their arms?

Xie Tang also knew what Sun Du meant, he glanced at Sun Du who turned his head from time to time to admire the haystacks of animals, and walked with no expression on his face.

When he walked to the fountain, Sun Du carefully looked at the soft-faced woman in the center of the fountain, and couldn't help sighing, "It's so beautiful."

Sun Du only took a few glances at this female sculpture, and he could deeply feel the peaceful and quiet meaning expressed by this sculpture.The woman lowered her eyes, looking at the water bottle in her arms, tender and caring, like a mother looking at her child, or like a girl in first love reading a letter from her sweetheart.

Hearing this, Xie Tang stopped in his tracks. He turned his head to look at Sun Du who was still sizing up the sculpture. Sun Du's eyes showed a kind of obsession. I saw him the same way when I read Notre Dame de Paris.

Xie Tang knew that Sun Du would unconsciously reveal a longing for beautiful things.

And it may be his ability to appreciate and yearn for beauty that dilutes the secular taste in him.Originally, Sun Du was a fox who dealt with the rich and powerful, so he should have a bit of copper smell, but he was strangely unattainable.

But Xie Tang didn't know, in fact, when he looked at Sun Du's eyes, there would be admiration from time to time.Especially when Sun Du and him chatted about some works of art in the afternoon.But his appreciation is always fleeting, too fast to be captured.

"This is my mother." Xie Tang stood beside Sun Du and said softly, "When she was young, it was her 20th birthday, and her grandfather gave her a birthday present."

He looked at the sculpture without expression.

Sun Du looked back at him in surprise, his mind turned and he remembered what he had heard about Xie Tang's mother and father in City C.

This is not a topic worth digging into.

In just a few seconds, he smiled nonchalantly and said, "She's so beautiful."

There was pure admiration in his words, nothing else could be discerned.

Xie Tang was noncommittal, did not say anything, and slowly moved his eyes away from the sculpture.Then he took Sun Du's hand again, glanced at Sun Du indifferently, and said under Sun Du's unexpected gaze, "Let's go."

The Filipino maid at the side didn't dare to say anything, and saw Xie Tang started walking again, so he trotted and continued to lead the way.

Along the way, Xie Tang and Sun Du looked natural, as if they didn't feel anything wrong.

It's just that the Filipino maids who hurried past and saluted were startled. After all, they had worked in the main house for most of their lives, and this was the first time they saw Xie Tang returning home with his lover.

The 35-year-old Xie Tang is holding the tender-looking 27-year-old Sun Du, who looks like an old man and a successful person, holding his young lover.

In particular, this little lover, even through the difference in racial aesthetics, can make a group of white servants feel a spring of tenderness.
