Highway No. 1 is like a gurgling stream, winding in the slowly landing sunset, and the spectacular scenery is beautiful in the bloody glow. Then, just watch the sunset disappear bit by bit, and the navy blue night sky covers, entering a completely different world.

The night is getting thicker and thicker, and the lights, whether quiet or noisy, dotted far and near in sight, fully supporting the night with only a few stars. The vast and long, low hills extend under the wheels, and the clear stream flows quietly, nourishing the tender grasslands and smooth vineyards not far from the highway.

This motel called "Palm Trees" is located outside Napa. Under the moonlight, the quaint gray walls reflect the swaying shadows of the endless vineyards behind us. The cool breeze gently blows in the late night brings the fragrance of mature grapes. Although the hotel looks a bit old, the bricks and tiles full of history are far away from the bustling city, as if they have come to a paradise.

Hugo held the already hot phone in his hand, watching the flashing signal reminding the exhausted battery, waiting for the door of the room in front of him to open. The door panel opened gently, revealing a goose-yellow light, and the darkness around him dispersed in an instant. Then he saw Charlize's miserable appearance, messy hair and bad tears made her look like she had just experienced a series of hard battles in the women's prison.

Hugo smiled slightly at Charlize, raised the plastic bag of the convenience store in his left hand, filled with beer, and whispered, "My phone should be scrapped. Are you sure you want to continue?"

Charlize's head was a little turned, and he looked at Hugo in front of him and stood there. The smile on the corner of Hugo's mouth was so warm that it almost caught her off guard. Her eyes, which had already dried up, suddenly collapsed. The sudden tears made all the weakness and timidity in her heart surge. Charlize wiped the tears in her eyes irritably, but she couldn't stop at all, so she simply turned her body, faced Hugo with her back, then gritted her teeth tightly, clenched her fists hard, and let the tears be completely free.

She has been strong for too long, and she is really tired. Maybe it is not because of Mr. Perfect's farewell, but because she has been alone for too long. She missed the days when she lived together in the Sunset Square before. She just needs to know that there is someone there who is firmly supporting herself, and there is someone who can always understand herself, understand herself, and wait for herself. And now, that person has appeared.

Charlize didn't know how long she had cried. After finally waiting for tears to be controlled, she realized that she was still the only one in the room. She was stunned for a moment, and turned around and saw Hugo who was still standing at the door. Hugo still had a warm smile on his face and said in a low voice, "Don't you plan to invite me in?"

Charlize was so funny by these words, crying and laughing like a lunatic, "You are such a big name, I need a special invitation!"

"Then I will answer this sentence as a positive answer." Hugo then walked into the room, then closed the door again, walked to the side, and placed all the beer in his hand on the counter.

Looking at Hugo's generous back, tears came up inexplicably again. Charlize was disgusted with angrily, "What are you doing?"

Hugo chuckled, "Come here to see how embarrassed you are. You are usually like a man. I am very curious to see you crying for a man so unreliable... Hey, Ms. Charlize Theron!" Before Hugo finished speaking, he noticed Charlize pounced on him, and then rubbed his whole face on the back of his coat, and his tears and snot were mixed, which made Hugo feel a little cramped on his back.

"Although I know you are very unhygienic,... Madam, is this the new clothes I just bought?" Hugo shook his head helplessly, and the smile on the corner of his mouth still gently outlined.

Charlize was serious and carefully cleaned his face with Hugo's coat. Then he took a step back with satisfaction, and then said righteously, "Tsk, I don't know who it is. I haven't washed this clothes for a few days, but I actually put them out directly. I was seen by the paparazzi, but it was embarrassing."

Hugo did not refute, but took off his coat, then placed it beside him, turned around and glared at Charlize fiercely. Seeing Charlize's clean cheeks, although his red eyes were still very embarrassed, his face that had not yet been familiar. Hugo then picked up two bottles of beer, handed a bottle to Charlize, and walked to the edge of the bed and sat down directly.

Charlize skillfully opened the beer in his hand, then raised his head and started to pour it down. He drank a can in one breath. He used his right hand to force it hard, and directly pinched the beer can into a ball, threw it on the wall, then took another can from the table, walked to the edge of the bed, and sat down on the other side.

"How do you know I'm here?" After chatting with Hugo for a few hours, Charlize's emotions fluctuated very much. He cried and cried. When all the negative emotions broke out and after venting, he finally calmed down a little.

In fact, Charlize didn't know where she was. After leaving Mr. Perfect's apartment, she did not go back to her apartment. She just looked for information clues and got the exact answer from Mr. Perfect's friends. Charlize felt that she was about to explode and called Hugo while driving. Later, she was so tired of crying that she just found a motel and then came in to rest. Who knew that Hugo actually found this place.

Hugo immediately showed a contemptuous expression, "When you were checking in, you were talking to me. Don't you remember? Your phone was almost out of battery, and you also asked the counter service staff to help find a charger. Don't you remember?" Hugo was at the gas station at the time and was also looking for a charger for a mobile phone.

Charlize scratched his head. In fact, the memories of the past few hours have become very blurred. She doesn't even remember how much time has passed. She only has a vague impression of what Hugo said, but she is not sure whether it was a real story or a story in a dream.

Charlize looked at Hugo in front of him seriously, but couldn't help but start to worry, "What are you doing here? Aren't you recuperating in Long Beach? If the paparazzi find out, it's bad. Your current state cannot stand the tossing, so you should stay there and rest and disappear completely. Oh, God, don't worry about me, anyway, I'll cry here and there. Men like me don't have to worry at all, right?"

Looking at Charlize with a worried face in front of her, Hugo didn't say anything, but just looked at her quietly, which made Charlize start to wonder, then touched his cheek and raised his eyebrows, "What? Am I still ugly? I can't see anyone?"

But this made Hugo smile gently, and he reached out and held Charlize's wrist with both hands, and slowly took them down. "I'm here to answer your question." Charlize frowned and looked at Hugo with a puzzled look, which made Hugo laugh. "I'm here to tell you what a bad woman you are... Hey, if you have something to say, why did you hit someone again, I will fight back!"

If it were normal times, Hugo's grin would definitely make Charlize ruthless, but today, Charlize gave out a long breath and said dejectedly, "Yes, what you are talking about is the truth. I am indeed a very bad woman. I am afraid of letting others leave without saying goodbye. And I am also a stupid woman, even if the other party doesn't even notice it, it is so stupid that I can't cure it."

Hugo looked at Charlize who was complaining in front of him, but burst into laughter, which made Charlize grit his teeth. Before Charlize went wild, Hugo quickly raised his hands to surrender, and then said, "Theron I know is the best woman in the world, unique."

"She will not pretend to behave in front of men, pretending to lose weight, and eating two leaves of green vegetables will be full; she will not be as coquettish as a princess, who needs men to take care of them all the time, as if they can't even hold up a fork; she will laugh happily and never hide her happiness; she is extremely dedicated to her work, and is even willing to abandon her appearance and challenge all the impossible; she always puts her friends first, even if she is busy to the point of being overwhelmed, as long as her friends have something to do, she will be the first to appear by her friends; she is always hard-mouthed and soft-hearted, treats her friends on the surface and is extremely harsh in her family, but she never knows how to refuse and takes responsibility one after another; even if she is hurt, she will still praise the other party's strengths..."

Hugo's warm voice was whispering, and the tears in Charlize's eyes blurred his vision, and the hot temperature almost burned her cheeks and the wounds inside her.

"I can't find the second such Charlize in the world. It's worth my journey from Long Beach to Napa and appear here." Charlize punched Hugo hard in the shoulder. Looking at Hugo's exaggerated expression, his smile bloomed in tears, but just pulled the corner of his mouth, and the smile disappeared in tears again.

"However, she also has many shortcomings, her temper is too irritable, her voice is too noisy, and her male hormones are too strong..." Hugo was kicked by Charlize after just half of his words. Both of them laughed. Hugo hurriedly begged for mercy, and then continued, "Her biggest shortcomings are that she doesn't like to bother others, but she always makes trouble for herself. No matter what happens, she is blaming herself. You don't need to hate and deny yourself because of other people's malice. You must change this shortcoming."
