[Comprehensive] Time and space experience

In the coffee shop, Carl has already become partners with several businessmen with good potential. When it was raining deeply, he happened to be studying at the West Point Military Academy in the United States in 1912, and later stayed in Wall Street for a while. He knew very well During this period of time, the trend of the U.S. economy, and it is clear who will become business giants in the future, which will be very helpful for him to take over the Hockley family in the future.

Shrewd businessmen often reach cooperation in casual chats. In such a relaxed atmosphere, even if they fail to agree, it will not affect the relationship between them. I just feel boring, I just feel that these people are wearing masks on their faces, showing off their capital to others, and even think that their interests are paramount, and they don't understand the true meaning of life at all.So, when she found the coffee shop and saw Carl talking happily with several businessmen with a smile on his face, she only felt that they were so hypocritical.

Carl accidentally turned his head and saw Ruth hovering at the door. He felt very surprised. He had no doubt that Ruth came to him, but he remembered that Ruth and Jack were so in love with each other?Even if he doesn't share their sense of responsibility, he has to admit that their love is deep.So what is Ruth doing now?

Ruth was struggling violently in her heart, and her mother's begging face, Jack's sincere eyes and Carl's hypocritical smile kept flashing in her mind, making her extremely confused.Seeing that Carl saw her, Ruth took a deep breath, suppressed the desire to escape, and thought to herself, the last time, it was the last effort for Cabot.

"Carl, do you have time now?" Ruth approached and asked as calmly as possible, but the resistance in her eyes might not even be noticed by herself.

Before Karl could answer in a hurry, the people around him made fun of him kindly, got up and left.Carl raised his eyebrows, buttoned up his suit, and motioned for Ruth to talk to him on the deck.Ruth has too many previous convictions, and Karl really doesn't want her to make any eye-catching moves in the coffee shop.

Carl leaned on the railing with both hands, looked at the endless sea, felt much happier, and asked casually, "Miss Cabot, what's the matter?"

Ruth glanced at him, pursed her lips, and said reluctantly: "Carl, did you make a hasty decision about the engagement? I think we should reconsider." She seemed to feel that her tone Too stiff, she was silent for a while, and continued: "After all, the invitations have already been sent out, so a sudden cancellation may cause unnecessary trouble."

Carl chuckled, "Miss Cabot, do you need me to provide you with a mirror?"

Ruth frowned, "What do you mean?" She hated Carl's oblique talk the most!

Carl looked at her and said with a smile: "Miss Cabot, you should look at your expression now, um, like a brave warrior who is generous to justice? What the Hockley family needs is a willing mistress, not you... Reluctant victim. I have to repeat that my engagement to you has been broken off, and I don't think there's anything more to say about that. And I think it suits you, doesn't it?"

Ruth's face was hot, she felt insulted, and was repeatedly emphasized that she was no longer Carl's fiancée, as if she was a perverted girl!Ruth looked deeply at Carl, she had never seen such a calm and breezy Carl, as if everything was in his hands, confident and dazzling, she thought, maybe she was really blinded by rebellion With both eyes, she didn't get to know Karl seriously, but her pride didn't allow her to bow her head again.

When Ruth turned to leave, Carl's voice entered her ears again, overturning the good feelings that had just arisen in her heart, "If I were you, I would start thinking about how to pay off the debt now, so that I and my mother don't have to Wandering on the streets. I suggest you take good care of the jewelry I gave you, maybe it can relieve some of the pressure for you."

Karl assured her that he was only reminding her out of kindness, after all if they didn't take care of their jewels after the ship sank, they would be completely poor.But obviously Ruth didn't think so. Seeing Ruth leaving angrily, maybe she thought she was laughing at her.Shrugging, Karl saw Captain Smith and walked towards him.

"Good afternoon, Captain Smith, the speed of the ship seems to be much faster." Carl greeted with a smile.

Smith turned around and shook hands with him, "Hey, Mr. Hockley, the boat is speeding up again, you know, Esme can't wait to make the boat go as fast as a rocket. Haha, have you had a good trip?"

"Very good, the Titanic is indeed a dream ship, and I feel very honored to be her first passenger." After seeing Smith's proud smile, Karl casually brought up some topics about the Titanic , and then said unintentionally: "Speaking of which, the Titanic is the largest ship I have ever seen, um, it is quite large, will such a ship change direction smoothly when it is urgent to turn the rudder? Oh, you know, the Hockley family also has a shipping business, and they can't help but be curious when they see the leading technology, so please forgive me if I offend you."

The smile on Smith's face paused. With decades of experience as a captain, he immediately noticed the problems he had overlooked.With such a fast speed, in case of an emergency, even if the rudder is full, it will not be able to drive such a huge hull. Before, I only wanted to reach New York as soon as possible to complete the most important and glorious voyage in my life, but I completely lost a The captain's professionalism gave him a sense of crisis.

With a stiff smile, Smith avoided Carl's eyes and said, "I'm afraid I'll have to ask Andrew to get the most accurate answer. I'm going to go to the cockpit to have a look. Excuse me, Mr. Hockley, I wish you a happy life." Have a nice afternoon." After nodding with Carl, Smith straightened his hat and walked quickly to the cockpit.The mind dazzled by the glory finally regained a sliver of clarity.

Carl squinted his eyes and looked at his back. None of the ship merchants, captains, and ship designers really thought about the safety of the passengers. They were dazzled by the fame and status they were about to gain, except for boasting that the Titanic would never sink. , what else to do?What an irresponsible group of people!

Carl has made all the preparations in advance, and then he has to plan how to let the crew and third-class passengers in the working position escape in a critical moment.He remembered that before the sinking of the Titanic, for a long time, the people on the top didn't know what happened, but the people on the bottom had already been drowned, smashed to death by furniture, and scalded to death by steam. He had to figure out a way to get them off the ground floor early.

At noon, in the cockpit, the captain Smith had a fierce quarrel with the ship merchant Esme. Smith demanded to slow down immediately and proceed at the safest speed, and Esme's proposal to hinder her from gaining greater benefits was naturally strong. be opposed to.Smith listed the possible dangers one by one, but what he got was Esme's sneer. All he could say was, "Oh, my Titanic is unsinkable!"

When Andrew was found by the first mate, the two were staring at each other, neither of them would back down.After Andrew figured out the content of their quarrel, he was silent for a long time, took out the blueprint of the Titanic and studied it carefully, frowned and said in a sullen voice: "I think we should follow Captain Smith's suggestion. The speed of the ship is already too fast, and once an emergency occurs, there is no way to respond in time." He hadn't thought about this problem before, but now that he found it, he had to make a judgment with professional knowledge.

As a professional, Esme still has to think about it. He is also resigned to his life. The many accidents listed by Smith made him feel a little uncertain. Before, he only insisted on his own opinion based on the saying of "never sinking". Now that even Andrew agreed to slow down, he could only reluctantly nod in agreement.

Now that the Titanic has succeeded, all the newspaper headlines in the world are occupied by her. As long as he lands safely in a few days, he will reach the pinnacle of his life.After comforting himself in his heart, Esme snorted coldly and left the cockpit.

The helmsman received the captain's order and began to slow down, but he had accelerated several times before, and it was impossible to slow down all at once, which required a slow process.Smith carefully instructed the helmsman to ensure that he would reduce the speed of the ship to a safe speed before returning to his room to rest tiredly.

Standing alone on the bow deck, Jack let the sea wind blow his cheeks, his eyes lost their brilliance for the first time, and he lost his previous confidence.At this time, it was dusk, and the passengers returned to their cabins one after another, only a few people were enjoying the sea view, and the deck was quiet.

Jack thought of Ruth, and suddenly felt a hollow pain in his chest, "Ruth, Ruth! Did you really reject me? Did you really not care about me? Why did you run away from me?" What about me? Am I going to spend my life with that boring, cold fellow?"

Jack kept asking Ruth in his heart, calling Ruth's name, but except for the sound of the waves, he couldn't get any response.At the same time, he reflected on himself in his heart, did I really understand her, understand her, and fall in love with her?But over the years, when I was wandering around, I didn't meet many wonderful girls!Why in just two days, I am no longer interested in my usual life?Could it be that I can't live without her? If I really can't get her love, wouldn't the lucky journey on the Titanic become a place of exile for love!

Jack didn't want to think about it any more, he only knew that love had nothing to do with reason.He doesn't care whether the reasoning of falling in love with Ruth is correct or not. Love is beyond reason. At this moment, all he knows is that Ruth's avoidance made him unable to restrain his heart from constricting, and a strong throbbing pain spread all over his body. , Jack closed his eyes and mourned his love.

"Hello, Jack... I've changed my mind, I'm looking for you everywhere..." Ruth's voice rescued Jack from the pain like a scorpion, and he turned his head suddenly in disbelief, and saw Ruth panting Qi stood in front of him, obviously he had been running for a long time.

Standing on the bow of the boat with Ruth in his arms, Jack opened his arms to feel the wonderful romance. He whispered in Ruth's ear against the setting sun: "YouJump, IJump!"

The two pairs of tightly clasped hands communicated each other's feelings, and the radiant eyes made them realize how boring language is. The sea was their companion, and the stars testified. In an instant, the world disappeared, the crowd disappeared, and the Titanic also disappeared.The only thing left is love, only the passionate kiss that expresses love... Ruth turned around lightly, and leaned against Jack's arms. She pressed her face to Jack's, and at the same time put her lips that exceeded her body temperature.

Jack hugged Ruth's waist, leaning over to accept the girl's wild kiss, Ruth wrapped her arms around Jack's neck, seeming to make her kiss more lasting and powerful, and more passionate...

The author has something to say: There are a lot of complaints... In order to find Ruth in the first class, Jack took someone else's expensive suit... He thought about returning it later, but would he "lend" it to him?Later, Jack and Ruth saw the latest car of the year, the latest model!Brand new and never opened twice, they had sex in it! ! !Sick, wouldn't the owner of the car feel sick?No matter how hypocritical and selfish the aristocrats are, they have no right to touch other people's things at will.
