Chapter 4257 4259 [Wish on a shooting star]
Xiang Nan and Rose were dancing to the music on the dance floor.
The smile on Rose's face almost never stopped. She has been on the ship for so long and has attended so many parties. This is the most enjoyable party she has ever attended.
She has always been educated to be like a lady, like a rich man, like a noble. How to get up, how to dress, how to eat, how to socialize, how to sleep... It can be said that she is a person in a cover.
Layers of rules wrapped her tightly, just like she was wearing a corset, making her almost breathless. Only today's party was the most free, unrestrained, and carefree she had ever had.
This feels so good!
After dancing several times, Rose's hair was messy, her clothes were wrinkled, and her forehead was covered in sweat.
But she didn't care, instead she felt very happy.
"Let's rest for a while." Xiang Nan smiled, then picked up two glasses of dark beer and asked with a smile, "Can you drink this kind of wine?"
"Of course." Rose took it immediately, "Don't you think first-class ladies can't drink?"
"No, I'm just worried that you won't be used to drinking this kind of Lianjia beer." Xiang Nan explained with a smile.
"It doesn't matter, what you drink is not important, who you drink it with is important." Rose smiled, "When I drink this beer, it tastes better than the purest champagne in France."
Xiang Nan also laughed when he heard this.
…
After drinking the beer, they sat down and took a nap.
I saw Tommy Lane wrestling with a strong man.
There was a large group of people surrounding them, cheering for them.
“Come on! Come on!”
“Come on, Tommy!”
“Beat him, Joseph!”
Everyone cheered.
“Yeah!” At this moment, Tommy exerted force and pushed down the strong man's arm.
“You win two out of three games, you win two out of three games!” The strong man was dissatisfied and said quickly.
"No way." Tommy flatly refused, and then said triumphantly, "If you win, you win, if you lose, you lose. I am the strongest man in the third class!"
Tommy's words aroused Rose's fighting spirit. She stood up and challenged, "Are you really that powerful? Come on, try to see if you can do this~"
Then, she handed the hem of the skirt to Xiang Nan, "Hold it for me, Jack~", and then took off her shoes.
Everyone looked at her with confusion and curiosity, not knowing what she wanted to do.
But Rose took a deep breath, squatted down slightly, and then slowly stood on her tiptoes, finally using only her two big toes to support the ground.
“Ah~” Rose held on for two seconds, then screamed in pain and fell down.
Xiang Nan hurriedly took action, grabbed her waist and supported her.
Rose laughed and said to Xiang Nan, "I haven't practiced for many years."
Xiang Nan smiled and nodded, "It's amazing, impressive."
Tommy Lane also clapped his hands in admiration. This move was indeed powerful and he would never be able to do it.
Everyone present also applauded Rose.
They have never seen a first-class aristocratic lady play so wildly, so wildly, so unrestrainedly.
But they like such a down-to-earth, informal aristocratic lady.
Then, the cheerful music sounded again, and Xiang Nan and Rose sang and danced with everyone again. They didn’t leave with enough content until the party ended at eleven o’clock in the evening.
Xiang Nan sent Rose back to the first class cabin.
“Come on, Josephine, jump on my flying machine, she’s flying, she’s flying…” they hummed together.
This was a popular song at the time, "Josephine Got on My Plane". It was a slightly vulgar slang song that was actually not suitable for a wealthy lady like Rose to listen to and sing.
But Rose obviously didn't care about her status as a noble lady, and she had a great time tonight.
But when she returned to the first-class cabin and saw the entrance to the first-class cabin, her expression suddenly froze, "I really don't want to go back."
“I understand.” Xiang Nan nodded.
“Look, the stars in the night sky are so beautiful.” Rose raised her head and looked at the stars above her head.
In the 20th century, air pollution was not that strong, so the starry sky at night was particularly bright, and many stars could be seen clearly.
Xiang Nan nodded. He also likes to look up at the sky. The vast sky is the ultimate dream of mankind.
"How magnificent, how majestic, and boundless." Rose sighed, "Jack... we, a group of people, think we are great. But in the eyes of God, we are not even as good as dust. We live in little champagne bubbles One day, the bubble will burst."
"You are different from them. You realize this, but they will never realize it." Xiang Nan smiled.
“It’s even more painful to realize it but not be able to change it.” Rose sighed.
She knows the corruption, depravity and hypocrisy of the aristocratic class, and she no longer wants to live this kind of life of being restrained, manipulated, and played with. But she still hasn't figured out how to change it.
“Look, a shooting star~” At this moment, Rose suddenly pointed to the sky and said.
A meteor was passing over their heads.
“My father told me that if you make a wish on a shooting star, your wish will definitely come true.” Xiang Nan said with a smile.
"Is it true?" Rose asked with a smile upon hearing this, and then quickly looked at Meteor and expressed her wish.
“What wish did you make?” Xiang Nan asked with a smile.
"It's something I may never get." Rose was stunned and said with a wry smile.
“How do you know if you can get it if you don’t try?” Xiang Nan said with a smile, “The most regrettable thing in life is not ‘I can’t’ but ‘I could’.”
Hearing what Xiang Nan said, Rose was stunned.
"Okay, it's getting late, go back and rest." Xiang Nan waved his hand to her.
Rose nodded and walked through the door of the first class cabin.
…
Xiang Nan then returned to the third class cabin.
“Man, you are so awesome, you made that noble lady so fascinated.” Fabrizio said to Xiang Nan excitedly.
“Ommaga, you are simply my god!”
“Man, how did you pick up such a beautiful girl?”
The other two people in the same room also said with admiration.
Ordinary people like them have never met these aristocratic ladies. To put it cruelly, they rarely even have the chance to talk to them.
You must know that noble ladies will not appear in the poor areas. They all live in the manor and are served by servants. They are simply inaccessible, and they cannot even enter the manor to work as servants.
Because servants at that time all had high-paying jobs, and it was difficult to get hired without a letter of recommendation, a clean family background, or any skills.
"Don't talk nonsense, we don't have that kind of relationship." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said, "Okay, it's getting late, let's rest."
“Haha, it’s not that kind of relationship?! If you repeat it a hundred times, I won’t believe it.” Fabrizio laughed.
The other two people also nodded together.
