"You see, Aziz, the circumstances...also the girl was still engaged to Heaslop, also I never felt . . ."
M表示清白。可惜没有表达对F的爱。
"Yes, yes; but you didn't contradict what I said, so I thought it was true. Oh dear, East and West. Most misleading. Will you please put your little rotter down at his hospital?"
AZ其实心里还是不安的,但是又好面子,就赶紧说没问题了。
"You're not offended?"
"Most certainly I am not."
"If you are, this must be cleared up later on."
"Good morning; so you are back," said Turton icily冷冷地. "I should be glad if you will put in your appearance at the club this evening."
T/M邀请F/F去俱乐部吃晚饭,无聊的应酬。
Do you regard it as necessary I should come? I should be glad to be excused; indeed, I have a dinner engagement this evening."
F/F恰好没空
"It is not a question of your feelings, but of the wish of the Lieutenant-Governor. 代理总督Perhaps you will ask me whether I speak officially. I do. I shall expect you this evening at six. We shall not interfere with your subsequent plans.
F/F还是去了。
He made a clean breast about the club said he had only gone under compulsion and should never attend again unless the order was renewed.
俱乐部成员改朝换代,F认为时代变得更糟糕了,表示不会回俱乐部去了。
"I thought you might end in England," he said very quietly, then changed the conversation. Rather awkwardly they ate their dinner and then went out to sit in the Mogul莫卧儿 garden-house.
第一句就知道F对于M要回英国非常不安,觉得自己要失去M了。
"I am only going for a little time. On official business. My service is anxious to get me away from Chandrapore for a bit. It is obliged to value me highly, but does not care for me. The situation is somewhat humorous."
M继续谈工作。
"What is the nature of the business? Will it leave you much spare time?"
"Enough to see my friends."
M体会到了F的不安,所以给F吃了定心丸。
"I expected you to make such a reply. You are a faithful friend.
He said: " I suppose you will visit Miss Quested."
AZ/F对F/M说话,这里可以看出F还是对于M的爱不安。
"If I have time. It will be strange seeing her in Hampstead."
M 这个笨蛋居然还没发觉,洞察力是真的不如F啊。
"What is Hampstead?"
"An artistic and thoughtful思想丰富的 little suburb小地方 of London”
