The Greatest Showman - Chapter 2248

[2211 Gu Ying self-pity]

No matter how difficult, no matter how terrible, no matter how bad, Matthew will never leave his place, he is always surrounded by Renly’s most steadfast; There’s Rooney, Andre, Eaton…and Edith.

Matthew, believe it.

“Renly, you know.” Matthew’s succinct tone, with unquestionable firmness, “Deep down, you know that this is Edith’s decision, and neither you nor Edith expected it to be like this. As a result, no one expects such an outcome, the accident, is always out of our control.”

“If you really think it’s your fault, then you’re too arrogant, you’re not God, you can’t control Edie Silk’s life choices; if you really think it’s all your own making, you simply can’t stay in Sneem, and you’ll go to the front to get Edith back.”

“You chose to stay in Sneem.

Sneem, this was the right and wisest choice; you chose to help Edith in your own way, and you were right. Understand? Deep down, you know this, and you should believe it , even if Edith is here, she’ll agree with you.”

Matthew’s voice was slow but firm, but Renly shook his head gently, “No, you’re not Edith, you can’t do it for her. Judge.”

“You too. You can’t assume Edith will blame you, it’s not about you, it’s about her. And the only thing you can do is to be strong.” Matthew showed no weakness. It slammed back directly, and the sound was raised loudly, but it calmed down immediately.

Matthew said word by word, “Renly, you have to have faith. You have to believe that Edith will come back, and then she will stand in front of you and tell you what she really thinks. You have to have faith that if Even if you don’t believe it yourself…” Having said that, Matthew’s voice stopped slightly, he was unable to continue speaking, and seemed to be worried that if he said the follow-up words, it would become true. :

If even Renly has lost faith, who else can believe in Edith unswervingly?

In Renly’s “The Beast,” sings the loneliness and sadness inside, “So we arrived, a lonely place where we can’t go back, you are the face that made me go through fire and water, this is the child Cast the inherited name, cast beauty, cast crown; cast perfection, go far away.”

Matthew now finally understands Heather, and finally understands why Heather can’t really understand the loneliness behind this melody until he grows up.

Like Heather, they staggered along

with Renly to a lonely place where they couldn’t go back, and held on with a belief;

The only companionship, if even Renly couldn’t hold on, would they also be swallowed up by the beast in their hearts and never find themselves again.

“Renly,” Matthew called softly.

“…” Renly said nothing.

“I’m still here,” Matthew went on, as “The Beast” sings, “so when you’re weak, when you get down on your knees, I’ll do my best for the rest of the day to watch over you. The oath, fresh and true.” Even if Renly couldn’t hold on to it, he would still keep that oath.

“…” Ren Li, still did not speak.

The quiet silence is slowly spreading in the indoor space, the cold air outside the window is invading, and the indoor heating is retreating. The unbearable night made that sense of oppression more and more surging.

Sweat soaked the sheets and quilts, as if the whole person was soaked in a muddy swamp, and then the shallow puddles slowly frozen into ice, from the skin to the blood to the bones, inch by inch, and time seemed to pass. Being frozen in the emotional rut, he stopped moving forward.

The world is so cold that even the breath of the soul becomes weak.

But Matthew never gave up, just stared at Renly silently, and even a little paranoid refused to look away, as if a wrestling was unfolding.

This wasn’t the Renly he knew, and it wasn’t supposed to be Renly; he knew, he knew Renly could be tired and sleepy and confused and hurt, and Renly was not invincible; but Renly would always be Will not surrender, and will not give up.

That’s why he still has hope for Edith—because Renly still hasn’t given up.

“…I guess Elf isn’t the only one who doesn’t look like him.” Renly finally spoke, and the hoarse voice came from the depths of his soul, with deep fatigue, but it rose slightly The corner of his mouth revealed a touch of ridicule and banter again, and the familiar appearance came back again.

Renly knew that the appearance of self-pity and self-pity was not himself at all, and he couldn’t even imagine the breeding of such negative emotions; but in the face of the predicament, they were gradually losing themselves. Those resentments and anger, those sadness and pain, gradually It evolved into a wound that could not be healed, and eventually became a monster demon that he could not recognize, his face twisted horribly, and all the negative energy burst out.

When he finally heard Ren Li’s voice, Matthew’s high-hanging mood was able to slowly fall. This was the Ren Li he was familiar with.

Suddenly, Matthew’s nose was slightly sore. He couldn’t imagine what Renly was carrying, nor how hard Renly was working.

Growing up, Renly had always been like this, carrying everything so maturely and prudently that they could only watch his back and follow him all the way.

They saw his strength, his excellence, and his wisdom, but they never saw the fragility behind those strengths, just like when EGOT was achieved, his tiredness and alienation were like kite strings that have to be freed from their palms at any time. In general, they never and couldn’t understand, they just knew that he had really paid too much along the way.

Staring at Renly, whose life was so weak in front of him, Matthew refused to imagine what would have happened if Edith really had an accident.

“But obviously, she’s not you, and you’re not her.” The strength of his knees and calves relaxed, and Matthew simply turned around, leaned back against the edge of the bed, and sat down cross-legged. After the tense emotions were relaxed, he also felt After a while of losing strength, the fatigue surged up like a tide, and he needed to rest for a while, just a little while.

“Matthew.”

“Huh?”

Renly called softly, but didn’t connect. After a long silence, he continued, “Do you believe Edith can come back?”

Matthew paused for a moment .

, gave an unexpected answer, “I believe you.”

This made Renly’s mouth rise, and he let out a low chuckle, but because he was too tired, the voice quickly disappeared deep in his throat. “I hope I can know the answers to all the questions. I pretend to be in control of the whole situation from the perspective of God, but in the end, I’m just a player in the game.”

“Fortunately, you are a player in the game, otherwise, our group of friends may You’re about to suffer, you should know that God doesn’t do anything to save an individual, right?” Matthew teased seriously, and the sense of absurdity made Renly chuckle again.

“But what can I do?” Renly’s voice was a little low: Heather was like this, Paul was like that, and Edith was like that now. He never seemed to help. After all, he is an ordinary person, and there are too many things that he can’t save.

Matthew could taste the deep meaning of Renly’s words, and he said softly, “You should know that without you, our life would not be what it is now.”

Renly twitched the corners of his mouth, “I strongly doubt it .

, If Edith is standing here, can she agree? She should protest righteously, and will never listen to my advice again. She doesn’t need my finger-pointing in her life. Otherwise, next time, she will Probably going to break up directly with Chris Evans.”

What?

Why is Chris Evans in this conversation?

Matthew was so surprised that he choked on his own saliva and coughed violently, which made Renly gleefully laugh.

After finally calming down, Matthew asked curiously, “Have you updated Chris?” This is the only reasonable explanation.

“…Yes, I sent a text,” Renly said calmly.

Matthew nodded slightly and did not continue to ask, because he could expect Chris’ reaction. Obviously, Renly’s nightmare tonight should have something to do with Chris-he doesn’t think Chris can accept the truth calmly , Chris is bound to pass all the blame to Renly; and Renly can’t refute.

In other words, even though Renly retorted, deep down, those wounds were there.

It was as if the Crosses had put all the blame on Renly when Heather died – the hurt of those words was more terrible than the pain itself.

They need to pass the buck, they need to find a scapegoat, they need to find someone to vent their anger, but what about Renly?

Who was Renly to blame?

“Renly, he’s not worth it,” Matthew said softly.

But Renly didn’t answer. He just lay quietly on the spot, staring at the dark ceiling above his head. It seemed that the afterimage fragments of the nightmare could still be seen, and the temperature of the hot blood could still be felt on his cheeks. The bloody smell always lingered under the nose.

“…” After a long time, Renly’s voice finally came, “I know.”

The whole room fell silent, and then Renly’s hoarse voice could be heard softly humming, mixed with vague lyrics. In the melody, like a lullaby, it shows the softness and pain deep in the heart, making people hold their breath lightly and fragilely.

“…So we got up and searched for our destiny in the dark, I saw you bruised late last night, I saw you dancing in the arms of the devil.
