"Hey, everyone is here!" Carl opened the door, saw the people in the room, greeted him enthusiastically, Alex and Charlize were behind him, dragging his suitcase in dusty clothes.

Hugo also raised his hand and waved it hard, greeting his friends whom he hadn't seen for a long time. In the past two or three months, Hugo has almost been away from home. Later, Charlize and Alex also received a new job and left home, so the house was free for a long time.

The hall was extremely lively for a moment. When Fujin heard the noise on the third floor, he also went downstairs. But he was a little surprised. Ernst on the second floor did not get angry today. The milky yellow light swayed quietly in the night, making people wonder if Ernst was not used to the quietness of the past two months. Rick temporarily put the work aside and let the group of friends be together lively.

The dinner prepared by Samora was soon finished, and a group of people sat around the giant dining table and chatted. When they moved here, everyone thought that the dining table was too big and occupied almost half of the space in the entire restaurant. However, now it seems that the existence of this giant dining table is very necessary.

"So, how is the shooting this time?" Hugo handed the salad basin to Charlize, who was sitting on his right hand, and asked.

Charlize took the basin, picked up some salads and put them on the plate, and curled his lips, "I'm just a little character without lines. I'm there, and then screamed in shock, and the shooting was over. After I finished the shooting, I went to Chicago to visit the set. After Alex finished the filming, I came back together."

Because Charlize was unwilling to play in the role of Vase, her development in Hollywood was very difficult, and it could almost be said to be difficult. Otherwise, after the premiere of "Schindler's List", Charlize received many performance opportunities. She could have completely gotten rid of her current situation, but she made her own choice.

"If you don't mind, I think maybe Rick can introduce some work to you." Hugo's eyes widened, his expression on his face seemed very exaggerated.

Carl, who was sitting opposite, immediately coughed twice, "Hey, I'm here."

Hugo ignored Carl directly. Charlize saw Carl's depressed expression and felt relieved. He chuckled and said, "Maybe you can invite me to star in your next work, just like you invite Leo."

"Hey, I'm here!" This time it was Alex's turn to speak. His uneven expression pleased everyone, making everyone around the dining table burst into laughter.

"You can start praying, maybe my next work will appear tomorrow." Hugo said with a smug smile on purpose.

However, Charlize did not cooperate with Hugo, but looked at Hugo with contempt, "Are you serious? Are you showing off now? Of course you don't lack scripts, and the whole Hollywood knows it."

Facing Charlize's sarcasm, Hugo burst into laughter, "Yes, I'm showing off. Isn't my expression obvious enough?" This sentence immediately made Charlize roll his eyes and look weak, which made Hugo happy.

After laughing, Hugo then sorted out his expression and stopped joking, "My acting job seems to be smoother than you, so I don't know the torment of waiting, but I believe that our persistence is not meaningless."

Charlize looked at Hugo's deep eyes. The light yellow halo in the kitchen covered the amber eyes with a warm luster. The gentleness hidden behind the luster was also unparalleled strength and stubbornness. The smile on the corner of Charlize's mouth couldn't help but stale for a moment. Hugo's eyes always had such magic, which made his heart beat in a random moment.

But soon, Charlize came to his senses, the smile on the corner of his mouth continued to bloom, his eyes slightly closed, and when he looked at Hugo again, he had returned to normal. "Your comfort is not practical at all. The twists and turns before and after you won the Golden Raspberry Award are much worse than my current state, but you still persisted, so, I know, persisting is not easy, but I will not give up."

Hugo looked at Charlize's bright smile as if spring flowers were blooming on his cheeks, and his eyes became slightly darker. He noticed the slight change in Charlize's expression, so he quickly took his eyes back, let out a sigh, and then smiled and said, "Then why do you look so...frustrated?"

Charlize's shoulder drooped slightly and glanced at Hugo, "I just heard that the director of the camera I took was not too satisfied with, and it is very likely that he would edit it."

Hugo didn't say much, but just gave Charlize a sympathetic look. This sympathy made Charlize give Hugo a elbow, making Hugo grin in pain.

In the past, Hugo had experienced too much of this kind of thing and spent a lot of time to complete the shooting. As a result, the director cut all the scenes with a scissors hand. All the previous efforts were instantly filled with water and moonlight. The loss, disappointment, and even anger were hard to describe in words, but it was just stuck in his chest and couldn't vent it.

So, Hugo did not comfort Charlize, because he knew that nothing was useful, but instead used a deliberately obvious sympathetic look to make Charlize vent his anger.

Sure enough, Charlize couldn't help but be happy when he saw Hugo's painful expression. Hugo rubbed his waist. Charlize was really serious just now, but he was asking, "So, what are the plans for tomorrow? Sleep at home for a day?"

Charlize shrugged, "Mr. Perfect asked me to go out for coffee tomorrow, but I don't want to run around, so I just want to stay on the sofa and watch TV." Now Charlize is also infected by Hugo. Both of them call Stewart Townsend "Mr. Perfect" when chatting, which is quite strange and ironic.

Hugo gently bit his lower lip, then chuckled and said, "What do you mean is to press the TV station from beginning to end, and then see the head from end?" Charlize actually doesn't like watching TV, sports, soap operas, and variety shows. Usually when he and Alex were watching TV, Charlize thought they were bored.

After being teased by Hugo like this, Charlize showed his white teeth viciously. His gritted teeth made Hugo want to laugh but didn't dare to laugh. Just then the phone ringing came from the hall, and Hugo immediately stood up, "Tel, phone, I'll answer the phone." Then he trotted all the way away. When he looked back, he could see Charlize's fierce look on his face. Hugo couldn't help laughing.

While smiling, Hugo answered the phone, "Good evening!" The smile in his words was leaked out, looking extremely happy.

"Hey! Hugo? You sound in a good mood, so I'm relieved. I'm also worried that you will be too tired after traveling back from a long distance, so I haven't called you." The cheerful voice full of sunshine came from the other end of the phone. It was Cameron Diaz. She seemed to be a little too happy, and her whole mood was very excited, a bit like the excitement caused by too much tension.

Hugo chuckled, "I slept for a while after I came back. Now I'm much better. What about you? I haven't started the promotion of the movie recently, so I should be very tired, right?" "The disguised monster" starring Cameron is also about to be released, and the third round of promotion is now underway.

"Fortunately, you know, I'm just a newcomer, and all the interviews are almost the same." Cameron curled his lips and said, "So, I want to say that our movie will premiere soon, and I will appear on the red carpet for the first time..." At this point, Cameron paused for a moment, but she took a deep breath to adjust her heartbeat, secretly telling herself that since the phone has been won and opened, there is naturally no need to be shy, "I want to know, don't you know if you are willing to attend the premiere with me?"

Hearing this sentence, Hugo was stunned. Before he could notice it, his eyes floated towards the restaurant. He saw Charlize who was eating salad. At this time, Charlize's eyebrows had relaxed and relaxed a lot, but he could still see some fatigue in his eyebrows.

Charlize noticed Hugo's sight, raised his head, frowned slightly, as if asking, "My phone number?"

Hugo's right hand holding the receiver tightened slightly, and he suddenly realized that life is composed of countless "moments". He may fall in love with someone because of a certain moment, so he may also have to fall in love with that person because he missed a moment of rejection.

Hugo lowered his eyes slightly, hid all his emotions deep in his eyes, then raised his eyes again, looked at Charlize, smiled and shook his head, and said to the receiver again, "Premiere? I have forgotten about this recently because of the tour."

Cameron on the other end of the phone was so nervous that she felt that her heart was about to jump out. She was worried that what should she do if Hugo refused? But after thinking back to the little things she had with Hugo in the past three months, especially in Houston, she would rekindle her confidence. This mixed mood made her palms covered with sweat, and the handset became wet and slippery in her hands. She had to grab the handset with both hands so that she would not drop them.

"Of course, there is no problem." Hugo completely retracted his gaze and lowered his head slightly, but he didn't know where he looked. There seemed to be no clear focus. A faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "It's a great honor to be able to attend the premiere with you, right?"

"Really? Really?" Cameron suddenly jumped up when he heard Hugo's affirmative reply, as if he was jumping above the clouds. She shouted excitedly, "So... Then..." She obviously wanted to say something, but her brain was covered in mud and could not say anything. She could only repeat a meaningless word.

"I will come and pick you up at 6 p.m. on the day of the premiere." Hugo said with a smile, freeing Cameron.
