Chapter 1,677 Jack and Rose’s First Meeting

His new friend, Tommy Lane, followed his gaze and saw Rose in the sun.

He quickly turned around and said with a smile: "Brother, don't think about it, you don't even have a chance to get close, don't do that, okay?"

But Jack still looked at her, fascinated.

Perhaps feeling Jack's gaze, Rose turned her head, but she just glanced at it and turned back indifferently.

But Jack still looked at her dreamingly, and she glanced sideways at Jack again!

Jack's old friend stretched out his hand and waved in front of Jack's eyes, and couldn't help but laugh.

At this time, Rose's fiancé Karl came up behind her. He said something, but the two of them didn't seem so happy.

There were no empty seats in the banquet hall.

This is obviously a restaurant for the wealthy class.

"I felt at that time that my life was boring!" Old Rose's voice sounded again.

"It's either dinner parties, dances, yacht races, polo matches, always with the same narrow-minded people, people who never say what they want. I'm on the cliff again and again, and no one wants to help me! No one cares or notices

I!"

In the picture, other people were chatting and eating elegantly, but Rose was the only one sitting there with an expressionless face.

The carnival of a group of people is the loneliness of one person!

She couldn't stand it anymore and ran out of the restaurant, running non-stop and crying uncontrollably!

It was so oppressive that she couldn't breathe.

Jack was lying on the bench on the deck, smoking a low-quality cigarette and looking at the stars. Maybe he was also thinking about Rose he saw during the day.

Suddenly there was a sound of footsteps and he sat up.

Rose ran to the edge of the deck in tears. She climbed up the guardrail and came outside the guardrail, looking at the sea.

Desperate, she wanted to jump down and take her own life.

Suddenly a voice came from behind: "Don't jump!"

But it was Jack who followed the sound.

Rose turned her head and shouted: "Go back! Don't come close!"

"Hand over here, I'll hold you!" Jack cautiously approached and stretched out his hand.

"No, don't come over!" Rose resisted.

"I'm serious! I will let go!" she emphasized!

Jack took a drag on his cigarette and then threw it off the deck!

Taking this opportunity, he quietly approached Rose.

"No, you won't!" Jack said with his hands in his pockets.

"What do you mean? Who are you to say whether I will do anything or not? You don't know me!" Rose said.

"I've already jumped if I wanted to!" Jack said.

"You're distracting me, go away!" Rose said dissatisfied.

"No, I've already intervened!" Jack couldn't help but said as he watched her turn around.

"If you jump down, I will have no choice but to jump too!" As he said that, Jack took off his coat and shoes.

"Stop talking nonsense! You will die!" Rose obviously had not met anyone like Jack, which made her a little at a loss.

"I'm a good swimmer!" Jack said as he untied his shoelaces.

"You'll fall to death!" said Rose.

"I admit it will be very painful. To be honest, I am more worried about the cold water!" He said and finally took off his shoes, but he was observing Rose the whole time.

Rose asked, "How cold is it?"

"It's very cold, probably close to freezing!" Jack said.

"Have you been to Wisconsin?" Jack asked after taking off his shoes.

"What?" Rose looked confused.

"It's very cold in the winter there. I grew up there. When I was a kid, I went to Lake Wisutta with my parents to fish on the ice. Ice fishing is..." Jack said.

Rose was a little crazy and said: "I know what ice fishing is!"

"Feel sorry!"

"You seem to rarely go outdoors. All in all, the ice is too thin. I fell into the lake. Let me tell you, falling into such cold water, like the one below, is like being cut into pieces by a thousand knives. You

I can't breathe, I can't think, I can only feel pain, so I don't really want to jump with you!"

"But I said, I have no choice!" He took off his vest again!

"So, I hope you come down and don't make things difficult for me!" Jack continued to persuade.

"You're crazy!" Rose didn't understand why Jack did this at all.

"Everyone says so, but don't be angry!" Jack said, approaching her.

"I'm not the one hanging on the stern of the boat now, trying to do something stupid!" He said a little thiefly.

"Come down, hold out your hand!" Jack cautiously stretched out his hand.

"It's not good to jump!"

Thanks to his efforts, Rose seemed to have lost a lot of her previous suicidal impulse, and she actually reached out to hold Jack's hand, and then slowly turned around.

The two faced each other, and Jack breathed a sigh of relief and introduced himself: "I am Jack Dawson!"

"Rose..." Rose also said.

"You might have to write it down and show it to me!" Jack said with a smile.

As he spoke, he helped Rose climb in from outside the guardrail.

But because the skirt was too long, Rose accidentally stepped on the hem of the skirt and fell down, causing her to scream in terror.

Fortunately, Jack caught her in time.

"I've got you!" Jack said, struggling to hold her hand.

But just when he was about to pull her up, she almost fell down again. Rose was so frightened that she shouted: "Help me!"

Her voice was finally heard by the crew, and they rushed over.

"Listen to me, listen to me, I won't let go! You have to climb up, quickly!" Hearing Rose struggling and crying, looking desperate, Jack quickly shouted to her.

Finally, with the joint efforts of Jack and Rose, she was pulled up.

However, the crew members who arrived after hearing the noise saw Rose lying on the ground and Jack's clothes were disheveled, so they thought he was trying to cheat on Rose.

Fortunately, Rose came to the rescue on the spot and fabricated that she accidentally fell and it was Jack who saved her.

In fact, Karl's performance as a fiancé is already very qualified, and he cares about Rose very much.

But they turned a blind eye to Jack, Rose's savior, as if letting him go was already a great gift.

One of his friends couldn't stand it and said before they left: "Should we give him a reward?"

Only then did Carl think of Jack.

"It should!" Karl said, and then he said to his men: "Is twenty yuan enough?"

Carl's reaction made Rose laugh angrily: "The woman you love is worth twenty dollars?"

Karl had no idea why Rose was dissatisfied. He smiled and said: "Rose is not satisfied? What should we do?"

"Yes!" He said, walking towards Jack: "Please dine with us tomorrow night! You can also tell us the story of your heroic rescue!"

"Okay, no problem!" Jack said.

"Okay, it's settled!" Karl glanced at him and said.

"There's a good show to watch!" He turned around and said with the smile on his face fading slightly.

Obviously, he had no good intentions at all when he invited Jack to dinner, he just wanted to see him make a fool of himself.

But afterwards, Carl's housekeeper asked Jack, if Rose accidentally slipped, why did he have time to take off his coat and shoes?

Obviously, Carl also knew this, so he showed hostility towards Jack.

But as a man, in terms of Karl's identity and position, there is actually nothing wrong with him doing this.

After all, his fiancée was raped by another strange man... Although nothing happened, he certainly wouldn't be so generous as to pretend nothing happened.

Later, Rose was playing with the mirror in the bedroom, and Karl opened the door and came in.

"I know you are in a bad mood, and I won't pretend to know the reason. I originally wanted to wait until next week's engagement party to take it out, but I think tonight..." Karl said, opening the box he brought

, inside is the "Heart of the Ocean"!

Rose was indeed attracted.

"Let you know how sincere I am to you!" Karl said confidently.

"This is?"

"Diamonds!" said Carl.

"Fifty-six carats!" he said as he put the "Heart of the Ocean" on Rose's head!

"So precious!" Rose said, stroking the Heart of the Ocean.

"This is for the royal family! We are the royal family!" Carl said, looking at Rose in the mirror.

"I can give you anything, I am willing to give you anything! As long as you accept me!" He supported his chin with his hand and turned to look at Rose.

"Love me with all your heart, Rose!" Seeing Rose turn her head, he continued.

A night of silence.

The next day, Rose and Jack walked on the deck. Jack told Rose his own experience. His parents died when he was fifteen years old, and he was alone with no brothers, sisters, or relatives. From then on, he started wandering around, thinking that he was

Weeds blowing in the wind!

"Rose, we have been walking around on the deck for a long time. We talked about the weather and my background, but I am thinking that you have an ulterior motive for coming to me, right?" Jack said.

Rose sighed: "Mr. Dawson! I..."

"Call me Jack!" Jack interrupted.

"I want to thank you. Not only did you save me, but you also kept my secret!"

"You are welcome!"

"Look, I know what you are thinking, poor rich girl, how does she know the suffering in the world?" Rose said.

"No, I don't think so!" Jack shook his head.

"What I'm thinking about is, what is it that makes her think so hard?" Jack looked at her and said.

"It's...it's everything, the whole world around me, the people in it, the inertia of life. It keeps moving forward, but I can't stop it!" She complained, and then stretched out her hand.

hand, showing Jack the ring on her finger.

"Wow, look at this thing, you're really sinking to the bottom!" Jack joked with a smile.

"Five hundred invitations have been sent out, and all the celebrities in Philadelphia will be there. However, at this time, I feel that I am shouting loudly in the crowd, but no one cares or pays attention!" Rose was obviously still troubled.

, I still feel so depressed that I can't breathe.

"Do you love him?" Jack asked.

"What?" Rose didn't expect Jack to ask such a question.

"Do you love him?" Jack asked again.

"You are so rude, how could you ask me such a question?" Rose dodges a little.

"This question is very simple. Do you love him?" Jack continued unmoved.

"Oh, we shouldn't discuss this!" Rose obviously felt that the relationship between them was not yet good enough to discuss such things. Of course, maybe it was because she was unwilling to answer such a question.

"Just answer my question!" Jack chased after him.

"This is ridiculous!" Rose covered her forehead and pretended to laugh.

"We don't know you at all. We have nothing to talk about! You are very rude and self-righteous! I have to leave!" Rose said with some embarrassment or anger!

"Mr. Jack Dawson, what a pleasure it is to meet you! I found you just to thank you!" She stretched out her hand, shook Jack's hand and said a little unceremoniously!

"And you insulted me!" Jack said, shaking hands with her as well.

"You deserve it!" Rose replied!

"Alright alright!"

"Aren't you leaving?" Jack said involuntarily as he looked at Rose and said he was about to leave, but he refused to let go of her handshake.

"Yes!" After saying that, Rose let go and turned around.

Suddenly she turned her head and said extremely irritably: "You are so annoying!"

"Haha!" Jack smiled back at her.

"Wait, why do I have to leave? This is my territory, and you have to leave too!" But after taking two steps, Rose suddenly turned back and looked at Jack unhappily.

"Wow, wow, who is being rude now?" Jack said sarcastically with a strange smile.

Rose was speechless by him, so she had to find a topic. When she saw Jack holding a drawing book in his hand, she reached out and snatched it away: "What is that thing you are holding?"

"What are you? A painter?"

she asked while flipping through the pages.

"Is the painting pretty good?"

"The painting is really good!"

Rose suddenly calmed down and sat aside to watch.

Jack also sat next to her.

"But people in Paris don't like it!" Jack shrugged.

"You've been to so many places! Well, even though you have limited money!"

"Just say I'm poor, it doesn't matter!" Jack said with a smile.

Suddenly Rose saw a few naked body sketches, and she asked very fondly: "Are these real life sketches?"

"That's one of the nice things about Paris, girls don't care much about nudity!" said Jack.

The two started chatting, and Jack told her who the people in his paintings were and their stories.

Rose suddenly relaxed, but when Jack said: "You won't commit suicide!", her smile suddenly disappeared!

During tea time, Rose's mother was talking to other people in the restaurant. She said: "I went to college just to catch a rich husband, and Rose did it!"

At this time, Mrs. Molly walked in. The irony is that Rose's mother and her friends regarded themselves as upper class people, but looked down upon Mrs. Molly, who also entered the upper class because of her wealth.

They called her: "Vulgar woman!"

"Quick, I don't want to sit with her!" Rose's mother said.

But soon Mrs. Molly saw them coming.

Molly was ostracized by their group, but she seemed to act like she didn't know.

Mr. Ismi chatted with the captain about the fact that the four boilers had not been activated yet, but the captain said it was not necessary and he thought the speed was fast enough.

But in order to attract more attention to the ship's maiden voyage, the other party asked the captain to make the Titanic faster!

But the captain told him that because it was a new engine, it had to be run in!

But the other party tempted the captain by giving him a more perfect retirement ceremony and asked him to speed up the ship!
