"I didn't expect that I would encounter such weather when I came to Scotland." Although Alan Wilson shouted for God's blessing in his heart, he still verbally expressed his apology to Audrey Hepburn.
"It seems that it will be difficult to go back." Audrey Hepburn sighed, feeling that being called out by Alan Wilson for a vacation was a wrong decision. She originally didn't want to go out, but she couldn't bear the man's teasing.
"Audrey, don't be impatient!" comforted Alan Wilson, who cherished the last bit of time in his native country.
Audrey Hepburn also knew that the man who took her on a trip was about to go to Malaya to take up a post, so she reluctantly agreed. The bad weather in Scotland cannot be attributed to him.
Alan Wilson turned on the lights and lit a fire in the fireplace. After making sure that the wood was burning, he turned on all the lights in the room. Although there was a violent storm outside and large water droplets fell on the glass, the room was not affected.
It has an impact and a warm atmosphere.
The trip she was looking forward to was definitely in vain. It was too early to go to bed now. Audrey Hepburn felt that she should do something, but she didn't know what to do. She walked around boredly, and the sharp wind tortured her
Nervous. Maybe a hot bath would help. She walked upstairs, taking off her clothes along the way. The heat had risen to the second floor, and the room became extremely hot.
She filled the bathtub with water and soaked in the comfortable hot water. Her hair was tied into a bun on her head, and the light in the bathroom fell on her, reflecting her looming body.
This is also a body that has not changed since birth. For a long time, until the water temperature receded, the heavy rain still did not pass. Audrey Hepburn went downstairs and was filled with wood. The fireplace made the whole room warm.
, no longer feeling as cold as before, just wearing casual home clothes, she watched Alan Wilson busy, using the reserves in this Scottish country house to prepare food for the two of them.
"The conditions are a little rough, which is beyond my expectation. There are very few things that are beyond my expectation." Alan Wilson was making potato cakes. He was quite unskilled in his technique, but fortunately, he never lacked
The courage to try.
Audrey Hepburn came to help, and she suddenly had the illusion that this was a couple living a simple and ordinary life.
But he understood that this man was a promising rising star in Whitehall who would soon set off half a world away to become the chief executive of a land twice the size of Britain. Tens of millions of people would be under this man's guidance.
With a sharp pen, you decide what kind of future you can have.
"Let's have a cup of cocoa first. It'll be fine in a moment." He patted the woman's shoulder. Alan Wilson didn't have time to feel the elasticity of his body under his pajamas, so he asked the woman to wait aside.
"Yeah." Without any reason, Audrey Hepburn followed the man's wishes and sat aside, watching the man busy, "Just like that, I went half a world away. I heard that the locals are full of aliens."
"They are all human beings, and there is no need to distinguish between aliens and aliens. In fact, most people have some xenophobic thoughts in their hearts, but most people don't say it." Alan Wilson continued to make food while saying, "Don't think that colonial people
People are bound to be afraid of the British. What they fear is the British, not the British."
"Do we have to maintain overseas colonies? I always feel that this is wrong." Audrey Hepburn said cautiously, "This is just a feeling, I have no other meaning."
"No, it is correct, but we must maintain it because there is no better way at the moment. And I will not treat the local area as a colony. I will operate it the same way as the local people." Alan Wilson turned around and filled out the form again.
Some wood continued, "Goodness and evil are matters of the Anglican Church, and what I can do is to provide a stable environment and prevent what happened in British India from happening again. By the way, you may not know that in the British Empire,
The movement to save the saints in India was initiated by me."
This surprised Audrey Hepburn. Although she had lived in the Netherlands for a long time, she also stayed in the UK for more than two years. During the last period of her stay in British India, in order to make her country's abandonment of British India even more
Mentally prepared, public opinion reported for a long time on the bad habits and ignorance of the entire British India.
Naturally, the British media focused on the discoveries of conscience in the last two years, in which the entire subcontinent united to fight drought and the liberation of Hindu saints took up a lot of space.
Audrey Hepburn knew all this. As a woman, she naturally sympathized with the tragic experience of the Hindu saint. Thinking of this, she said, "So it was you who carried out this action."
"It is correct to say that it is the leading role. The powers of overseas civil servants are not the same as those in the mainland. This is the reason why many overseas civil servants are unwilling to return to the country. The reason why Comet airliners are actively ordered in major colonies is also because it is convenient for local civil servants. They want
Just stay in the local area when you are working, and you can come back at any time if you want to rest." Alan Wilson raised an eyebrow and explained, "I will try my best to make time to come back to see you."
Sensing that Audrey Hepburn was interested in this kind of topic, Alan Wilson said a few more words about women's equality in his opinion, and pointed out the difference between slogan pastoral women's rights and real women's equality.
Of course, Hepburn was also told that the latter was quite difficult, "Just as it is very difficult to pursue the truth, there are too many ways to guide this matter in the direction of the former."
The food was ready, and under the heavy rain, the two of them treated themselves to an unconventional trip.
"It's like being in the North Pole!" Audrey Hepburn lamented the vagaries of nature.
If it were other times, facing other people, senior administrator Alan Wilson would definitely take the opportunity to popularize the situation in the Arctic, and then ask rhetorically, where is it like the Arctic? But in the face of such an environment and such people, he
...did not answer the call.

, all ethnic groups and all people have actively or passively entered modern society.
"The British Empire and some countries in Europe are very lucky. They came in proactively. Those who came in passively must pay a certain price. The reason why colonies appeared is also a concrete manifestation of these costs."
Alan Wilson is not handsome, but he has a certain conceited charm. He can interject on any topic and can bring a continuous sense of novelty to others. Now Audrey Hepburn is feeling it.
As the two exchanged glasses of red wine, Audrey Hepburn talked about her current goals and aspirations, while Alan Wilson said that he believed her goals would be achieved, "Maybe you will be more famous than Elizabeth Taylor."
"
"She and I can't compare." Audrey Hepburn smiled sheepishly, her face looking particularly moving under the influence of red wine.
Elizabeth Taylor was a child star. She had already appeared in movies at the age of nine and signed a contract with MGM at the age of ten. Although her current status in the British entertainment industry cannot be compared with that of Vivien Leigh, who has a British treasure, she can be regarded as one of the young actors.
This is absolutely true.
Audrey Hepburn, who had just entered the acting world, knew the name of this young actor.
"It's not comparable, I don't think so." Alan Wilson said as he packed his things, "Maybe you are more popular than her."
"You know how to praise me." Audrey Hepburn smiled sheepishly and joined in the cleaning process after the meal.
In the dark, the two people in the room tidied everything up, and then Alan Wilson went upstairs to take a hot bath. Finally, in a complicated mood, Audrey Hepburn nodded to the request to sleep in the same bedroom for one night.
Although the trip was disrupted by the torrential rain, the two of them were still looking forward to the arrangements after the heavy rain stopped. They chatted enthusiastically, talking about their childhood and listening to Audrey Hepburn talk about how to deal with the Germans in the past.
When Audrey Hepburn asked Alan Wilson about his life in the East, he answered about the displacement of the Japanese army across Southeast Asia and the start of his civil service career after arriving in India.
I don't know when, Audrey Hepburn's body was embedded in the arms of Alan Wilson. The latter curiously began to explore the East-West ball flower. At first, Hepburn was a little shy about this behavior, and whispered to himself that there was no such thing.
Never experienced...
In the end, the door was inevitably opened. Perhaps the heavy rain this time was the best assist. She endured Alan Wilson's deep and long kiss.
The lights went out at some point, and the two of them were exploring in the darkness. The temperature in the bedroom was gradually rising. A female voice suddenly appeared in the darkness, breaking the silence, "No kissing there..."
The quilt surged one after another, and Alan Wilson's head emerged from the quilt. Only the blurry outlines of each other could be seen when the four eyes faced each other. Along with the woman's cry of pain, the bedroom that night was like the torrential rain outside without stopping at all.
It's hard to explain what this feels like. Anyway, Alan Wilson is rarely in such high spirits. The next morning, he was preparing different words depending on the situation. He even thought about kneeling down and slapping himself twice.
To show sincerity.
But the goddess who woke up didn't blame her, she just worried about the gains and losses, and was a little uncertain about the future of the two of them. The experience last night was indelible for her.
The sun reappeared, and at Alan Wilson's suggestion, the two walked out of the room hand in hand, "I feel that I have no regrets in my life, and there is nothing that scares me anymore."
Alan Wilson's words were very sincere. Although he had nothing to do with God, fate did favor him, and it favored him more than once.
