071 Nervous news
Hugo didn't miss a look that Uma gave him before leaving, the charm that gently lifted up under his eyes. The state is not deliberate, it is more like the ripples rippling in the depths of the heart inadvertently leaking the spring light under the sun, which makes Hugo can't help but show a smile. After the kiss at the last premiere, and Uma's hint during today's conversation, if Hugo still doesn't understand what's going on, he's a piece of wood.
Hugo could feel his heart throbbing slightly, a strong desire for physiology. I hope to make Hugo a little uncomfortable, his two meetings with Uma are a little abnormal, the first initiative to kiss caught people off guard, today is just a couple of small talk in such a wolf situation, how can it be suddenly good?
Could it be because of the relationship between the predecessors? After all, before Hugo crossed over, the predecessor was enthusiastically pursuing Uma, but it was only because of his own crossing that this relationship that had not yet unfolded was interrupted. Uma was also whetted because of her abnormal appearance, although Uma "saw" through Hugo's tricks of wanting to capture and indulge when they first met, but it can also be seen that she also has a good impression of her predecessor, otherwise she would not have had the first unexpected meeting, and today she is so frank and shows her good impression of herself.
Hugo touched his heart, could he still feel the true emotions of his predecessor? This should be the only normal explanation, Hugo subconsciously shook his head, trying to shake off the itchy love in his head, and took a few big breaths to calm down the turbulent heart.
"Hey, man, what are you thinking?" Hugo's thoughts were interrupted by a cry from the left front, and when he looked up at the sun, he saw Karl's figure walking straight over, "That beautiful woman just now is Uma Thurman?" Karl had a look on his face. The ambiguous smile is obviously a hint at the evocative relationship between Hugo and Uma.
Hugo couldn't help but laugh directly, "Friends, just friends." ”
"Are you sure?" Karl's smile raised, "I was there just now to see your conversation between you, but you weren't ordinary friends. Although Karl did not say it explicitly, the meaning of his words could not be clearer. Just now he stood next to him, watching the pleasant conversation between Hugo and Uma, and the faint sense of harmony around the two people, even if he was just a bystander, he could see that there was a spark between the two people.
Hugo chuckled and did not respond to Carl's words. Then I listened to Karl continue, "You're single now, anyway, there's nothing wrong with being brave enough to try, you and Uma seem to be on good terms." Or do you have a relationship with? Karl asked, somewhat uncertainly, "I heard Joseph say no......"
Carl's words made Hugo cry and laugh, although the beating of his heart seemed a little unusual when he heard Carl's words, but Hugo firmly believed that this was the influence of the previous body. So Hugo stood up directly with the gramophone, "You can't park here, hurry up, if you don't want to be ticketed, we'd better leave now." ”
Carl didn't continue to tease, after all, his relationship with Hugo was only average, and he was not familiar enough to joke at will. Carl himself replayed the picture of Hugo and Uma getting along just now in his head, and couldn't help but chuckle, he thought that there must be something between these two people, but it has not yet been determined, and Hugo will say "just friends". Carl walked briskly to the side of the road, lifted the two lamps, and walked towards the pickup truck parked not far away.
Hugo and Carl teamed up to load all the furniture into the pickup truck and drove them home, but from a distance, they saw Joseph and Alex standing at the door arguing with an old man, saying that it was a quarrel, and the most important thing was that the old man was complaining with red faces, and Joseph and Alex were standing next to them decently, and they didn't react much.
When Hugo and Carl approached, the old man strode into the building angrily, "What's the matter?" Karl asked, sticking his head out of the driver's seat.
"It's okay, he said we blocked the corridor and affected the access." Joseph spoke simply.
Alex, who was standing next to him, also looked helpless, "The old man who lives on the second floor seems to be an old man who lives alone, and there are always a lot of opinions on chatter." ”
"You're going to allow people to have their opinions, and we're blocking the hallway." Hugo didn't think too much about it, and said with a smile, "I'll just say why haven't you been here for so long, okay, let's help together!" ”
After unloading the cart of furniture, the four of them ran again, and after filling another cart in a scattered manner, it was the end of today's shopping.
By the time all the furniture had been set up and cleaned briefly, it was almost ten o'clock in the evening, and the pizza delivery came very quickly, and in less than a quarter of an hour, the four of them sat in the hall on the third floor and began to enjoy dinner.
At this time, the hall is no longer so empty, two connected shoe cabinets have been added to the door, because there was only one group of sofas before, so now several sofa piers have been added scattered, filling the space of the living room, and a storage cabinet has been added next to the low cabinet, and the things to be used in the living room have been put away, and the gramophone is placed on the storage cabinet. The dining room also has three barstools next to the table, and with the refilled microwave oven and pans in the kitchen, it finally has a bit of a homely taste. Although the overall decoration is still very simple, I believe that with the continuation of their life here, there will be more and more decorations, and the taste of home will become stronger and stronger, after all, this is only the first day.
Of course, the most important thing is that there is a TV in the living room.
"Are you sure you want to leave the TV on?" Joseph looked at Hugo helplessly, because Alex had not paid the cable TV bill, so now the TV service has long been suspended, nothing can be seen, even if the TV is on, it is just a snowflake, but Hugo still insists that the TV must be turned on.
Hugo took a bite of the pizza hard, stuffing his mouth with fragrant dough and a satisfied expression, "Of course, don't you think that when the TV is turned on, at least a little sound is in the room?" If the four of us were silent at the same time, the living room would not be so awkward, and if we don't believe it, we won't talk now. ”
After Hugo's words fell, the four big men all look at me, I look at you, and the boring rustle of the TV is still ringing, the original atmosphere is not embarrassing, but Hugo deliberately emphasized it, and suddenly the joy came out, but Alex was the first to hold back, and laughed out loud, followed by Hugo, then Carl, and finally Joseph was also crying and laughing.
"If you have vinyl records at home, it's good to play music." Alex has always loved Hugo when he came back from buying a gramophone, and occasionally listens to vinyl records at home, which is indeed desirable.
"The next time you bring a woman back on a date, I'll have a couple of romantic records for you." Hugo said with a smile on his face, in fact, this is just a joke, Hugo has not had much contact with vinyl records before crossing, and he knows nothing about gramophones, if he wants to understand, he can only start from scratch.
However, Alex immediately showed a satisfied smile, sat next to him and nodded repeatedly, "Then I will express my expectation." ”
"The crew of 'Yihai Xiongfeng' didn't call you today?" Karl looked at Joseph and asked curiously.
Joseph shook his head, and Carl's brows couldn't help frowning, "Could it be that because we've been running outside, you haven't received a call?" "Today they are on the move almost all day, even at home, and it's normal not to hear the phone ringing.
"No, it won't." Joseph is more calm, mainly because Joseph has experienced more situations in the past two months, and he also knows that he can't help if he is in a hurry here, so it is better to treat it calmly. "Rob, they know the phone number in the office, and even if they don't reach me, they will leave a message in the office."
Nowadays, when mobile phones are not widely used, the phone at the office reception has become an important transit point, and even if Joseph is not in the office all day, he will avoid missing calls. Of course, this is only the case of a small clerk like Joseph, and if Lang is out on an errand, then Gary as an assistant will record all the messages for his boss.
"Don't worry, I only had an interview yesterday, and the news came today, it's definitely not so fast." Hugo was not too anxious, because he knew that this time the initiative was not in his hands, nor in Rob's hands, but in Tom's hands. As long as Tom is willing to take the script, then the problem is solved and nothing is left.
Karl looked at Hugo and then at Joseph, "Didn't you know that Columbia Pictures wasn't going to use Tom Cruise?" This is also the reason why Carl was so anxious to mention this matter just now, and sure enough, this news immediately stunned Joseph and Hugo. Carl then realized that they hadn't gotten the news yet, "I went to the company in the morning, and I heard that Tom refused to shave his head, and the salary was unwilling to be lowered, so Columbia Pictures planned to find a replacement again, on the one hand, to seek a second plan, and on the other hand, to put pressure on Tom." ”
Carl took the pizza in his hand and swallowed it as he smelled the aroma, but he didn't dare to put the pizza in his mouth, because the three people in front of him were looking at him expectantly, so he said quickly, "This morning came the news that Tom strongly refused the request to cut his hair short, because it would affect his image, so the two sides broke down. I thought Rob would make a decision in the afternoon, didn't I hear that the crew would start filming in ten days, and there wasn't much time left. ”
Daniel, the male protagonist in "The Heroes of the Righteous Sea", is in the navy, although he is not a combat army that goes to sea to serve, and he is not required to shave his head, but it is still necessary to cut his hair short. Now Tom is in full swing, he has the capital to call out to the producer, and then it depends on whether the producer can be tough to the end.
However, Hugo knew that in his memory, the producer compromised, because Tom starred in "The Heroes of the Righteous Sea", and he still had a graceful hairstyle. It's just that it is unknown what will change this time.
After saying that, Carl took a big bite of the pizza and immediately showed a satisfied expression on his face. Hugo couldn't help but smile when he looked at Carl's expression, but Joseph frowned slightly and looked at Hugo worriedly.
Hugo smiled and comforted, "Don't be too anxious, even if you have to make a decision, you can't be so fast." Whether it's me or Brad, it's a tough decision to replace Tom. ”
"At least you're much taller than Tom and Brad, and you're a lot taller." Alex made a stroke next to him, so that Carl, who was enjoying the pizza, almost didn't choke and coughed. Height, this is Tom's absolute weakness, and Brad is about the same.
