1315 1315 Taxi Driver
Justin was excited and looked at the man in the backseat from the rearview mirror and said with a gaze, "Now there are so many male actors in Hollywood, only Hugo can be considered talented and capable. No matter what works he starred in, he is so outstanding. This time the "Seven Deadly Sins" is really great! How about it, do you think so too?"
The man's expression was a little hesitant, as if he didn't know how to answer this question, which made Justin stunned, "You won't appreciate Brad's plaster vase, right?" After saying this, Justin realized that he had crossed the line. The other party was just a stranger. He had no right to interfere with the other party's personal preferences, and they were not friends, so there was no need to communicate. Justin quickly apologized, "Sorry, I'm a little too direct. I'm just expressing my own thoughts. If it causes your displeasure, I'm really sorry."
When the man heard this, he smiled and waved his hand, "It's okay, it's okay, I...uh...I also like his performance in the "Seven Deadly Sins"." The man spoke a little intermittently, as if he was thinking about how to answer it correctly.
Justin thought he had offended the other party and said embarrassedly, "I'm a little too excited."
"It's okay, it's okay..." The man pulled his baseball cap, as if he was hesitating whether to take it off, but after thinking for a while, he still didn't take it off. He hesitated for a moment and said, "You can see that you admire him very much. Maybe you can meet in a taxi and you can have a good talk with him."
"Hugo? Impossible, Impossible..." Justin felt the sincerity in that tone, and his whole emotions were slightly released, "He has his own special car in and out, so how could he take a taxi?"
"Who is right? Maybe one day he suddenly got drunk...or, uh, his assistant went out for something, and he needed a car temporarily. You know, taxis are always the most convenient." There was a strange smile in the man's words, as if he could not understand his current state.
"Haha, if this is true, I will definitely tell him that he is such a fucking good actor!" Justin said generously, "and ask him, how did he do it? If I remember correctly, he is only twenty-eight years old this year. He is really a genius, genius!"
"Genius also needs to work hard, right? That's not the news that happened in August." The man sighed, which made Justin nod, "That's right. Those media are really disgusting. It's not sympathetic. It's really ugly for their own sales. It's just too ugly and it's simply unbelievable."
Justin seemed to feel the easygoingness of the man in the back seat, so he completely opened up the conversation. He also ignored the embarrassment and awkwardness that the man felt at all times. When he arrived at Santa Monica Hospital, Justin still looked unsatisfied, "Sir, a total of 43 dollars!" Then he touched his head awkwardly, "The chat just now was very pleasant, I hope I did not disturb your journey."
The man took out his wallet, found a fifty dollar bill, looked up at Justin, and showed a gentle smile, "No, this journey is very pleasant, thank you for sharing."
Justin turned around and looked at the man in front of him seriously. The man's baseball cap almost covered two-thirds of his cheeks. He could only see the lips that looked extremely sexy in the shallow stubble, and the corners of his mouth had a light curve. But only seeing this part of his cheeks, he could still feel the charm of a man. It was not about appearance, but about the temperament and aura that exuded by a man, which made people always look at him more. Even as a homosexual, Justin sighed.
When the man was about to hand the money to Justin, he heard Justin say, "Since you are studying at the California Institute of Art, you must also want to become an artist in the future. If you have the opportunity, becoming an actor is a good choice, and you should be an excellent actor."
Hearing this, the man's hand paused for a moment, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was stunned. Justin thought he had said the wrong thing again, "I have no intention of offending, I really thought so!"
The smile on the corner of the man's mouth completely bloomed, and then handed the banknote to Justin, "I will treat this as an appreciation." The man opened the car door, got out of the car with the acoustic guitar, and stood by the window, "No need to make change, the conversation just now was very pleasant."
Justin stopped rummaging for change, then looked up at the window, and saw the man's face hidden under the baseball cap. The deep eyes were fully displayed for the first time without any concealment. The bright and soft sunlight was even brighter and more dazzling than the rising sun at nine o'clock on the sea outside the window. Justin suddenly felt that the person in front of him looked familiar, but his brain fell into stiffness in an instant. No thoughts could emerge, and he could only stay in place in a daze.
The man gently patted the taxi door, "Thank you for this journey, Mr. Yang." Then he turned and left.
The man's smile seemed to remain in the small space outside the car window. Justin stood there in a daze, as if he was like plaster, watching the man disappear at the entrance of the hospital. He seemed to have something in his brain that wanted to break out of the ground, but he couldn't react for a moment.
Justin licked his lips with his tongue, then looked down at the fifty dollars in his hand, and found that there was actually a piece of white paper under the dollar. Justin took the white paper on it and saw it in scribbled handwriting, "Mr. Justin Yang, thank you for your support and love. As an actor, it is the greatest honor to be able to make your role recognized by the audience. Perhaps, this is the source of motivation to support me on the road to becoming an excellent actor, so thank you. By the way, the journey just now was very pleasant. I hope I will have a chance to get into your taxi next time. Your, Hugo Lancaster."
"Ah...ah..." Justin tried to make a little sound, but could only stutter out two syllables. Then he looked at the notes and then looked at the empty gate of the hospital. After looking back and forth several times, the voice finally came out, "Ah! Ah! God! Ah!" Justin turned his head in a daze, and then he bumped back and forth on the chair, as if he was upset and excited.
After a while of this, Justin's brain completely reacted, "Ahhhhhhh! It's Hugo! It's Hugo Lancaster! Ahhh!" Justin was crying and laughing, and he couldn't tell his own feelings.
At this moment, my brain finally became clear. The last smile just now was Hugo! It was his favorite actor, Hugo! What does this mean? It means that he received Hugo today! He also chatted with Hugo happily! But...but!
Justin suddenly pounded his head in annoyance, "I am idiot, I am stupid! Oh, hopeless! God! I want to die!"
Justin remembered his stupid behavior just now. Not only did he comment on the "Seven Deadly Sins" in front of the parties involved, he also suggested that Hugo be an actor. God! What else can be more stupid? He suggested that the male actor he admires the most become an actor!
Justin's only thought now is: he's a total idiot.
But after such thoughts surged for a while, Justin calmed down completely. He sat in the driver's seat and looked at the notes in his hand. His whole brain became clear. Everything that happened just now was so clear: he talked to Hugo, he discussed his views on the movie with Hugo, and he also told Hugo about his thoughts; Hugo was not repulsive, and he also communicated with him. In the end, Hugo even signed him and left a message!
All of this is so incredible.
Justin carefully placed the note in the sunshade above his head, then sat quietly for a while, and then began to laugh wildly, "Hahahaha...hahahaha..." He was extremely happy, extremely wonderful, and extremely happy.
Hugo left the taxi and walked into the hospital with a pace. The situation just now was indeed a bit awkward. On the one hand, he met a movie fan, which was a very happy thing, and the movie fan affirmed his performance, which was even more good; but on the other hand, the other party did not recognize him, which was really strange.
Although this is Hugo's original intention. He wore a baseball cap and deliberately lowered it, just because he didn't want to reveal his whereabouts. Otherwise, with Hugo's current recognition, even if he is not a movie fan, he would definitely not recognize the wrong person. However, after the other party did not recognize him, he actually discussed "self" with the other party. This feeling was really subtle and strange.
During the whole process, Hugo thought several times that he might as well tell Justin the truth, but if he thought about it carefully, it would seem too deliberate to announce his true identity suddenly. Moreover, Justin had a relatively lively personality. If he was scared, the steering wheel of the driving taxi began to spin, and the right side of the road coming to Los Angeles was a cliff.
So, Hugo finally closed his mouth. But Hugo could still feel Justin's enthusiasm. Out of gratitude, Hugo took the time to write the note in the car and finally handed it over to him. This was also a kind of fate.
When entering Santa Monica Hospital, Hugo temporarily put Justin's wonderful journey behind his mind, calmed down his mood, asked about the direction and headed towards his destination today.
