One of the most troublesome things to buy furniture is to transport it back, at present, Hugo only has Joseph's Volkswagen Golf for four people, which is not a model suitable for transporting furniture, and the second-hand furniture market does not provide door-to-door delivery services, so only a part of it can be transported back each time, and then leave people to continue to shop in the second-hand furniture market.

Hugo was sitting at the door of the second-hand furniture market, sitting on a black palm sofa with two lamps, two birch chairs, and a few trivial knick-knacks, and an old-fashioned gramophone in his arms. It looks like a wandering gypsy, homeless and can only stand on the street with some scattered luggage, looking very wolf-like.

Carl had just borrowed a pickup truck from a friend, and it was much easier to transport furniture with a pickup truck, but he needed to go to his friend to pick it up, so Carl took the subway to get it. Alex and Joseph returned with a shipment of furniture, leaving Hugo alone to guard the furniture they had just purchased.

In the early nineties, the disc (CD) had been widely used, gradually replacing vinyl records and cassettes as the mainstream carrier of the music market, and the once dominant vinyl record withdrew from the stage of history, although in the mid-nineties because of its preciousness and classics, there was a wave of collecting, but after entering the twenty-first century, many vinyl records have been found again, and even the gramophone has disappeared from people's sight.

In the past, when Hugo saw a gramophone, he looked as if he was looking at an antique, but today he is holding a gramophone in real life, which feels very novel. In fact, if you want to talk about convenience and habit, Hugo is the generation of digital music, he is accustomed to using the Internet to download to communicate with music, and the production of music is more dependent on digital methods such as computers. But for those who delve into music, vinyl is hard to replace.

The ethereal inspiration and sense of presence of vinyl records cannot be replaced by compact discs and digital music, and the sound quality of vinyl records is the closest to the original sound compared to the rough digital sound of the disc, in short, the carrier that presents the music in the most original way.

Hugo had listened to vinyl records once before he crossed over, and he has never forgotten this kind of music medium, so today he encountered a gramophone in the second-hand furniture market, and Hugo bought it without hesitation. Originally, Joseph wanted to dissuade him, but remembering how Hugo was immersed in music last night, he didn't say anything more, which was regarded as acquiescing to Hugo's behavior.

"You should go to the record store on Sunset Boulevard and check it out." A slightly hoarse woman's voice rang out not far away, and gradually approached Hugo.

As soon as Hugo looked up, he saw Uma Thurman in shirt and jeans, her figure with her back to the sun, so that Hugo could not see the expression on her face clearly, only the soft blonde hair shining in the sun, "Then I think I need a bookcase dedicated to vinyl records first." ”

Uma looked at Hugo in front of him, a simple plaid shirt with straight-leg jeans, a pair of white canvas shoes that were already dirty, a mess of furniture piled up around, and a gramophone in his arms, looking like a down-and-out artist who had been kicked out of his house, obviously starving to death on the streets, still holding his baby and unwilling to bow his head. This appearance was so different from Hugo's memory that Uma couldn't help but laugh, "You...... Today's appearance is very special. ”

After Hugo recalled the entanglement between his predecessor and Uma, he had the kiss at the premiere of "Final Analysis", and he was much calmer when he faced Uma again. Hearing this, Hugo looked down at himself, and then said with a smile, "If you give me another pair of gloves, I wonder if anyone is willing to ask me to move, this should be a good part-time job." ”

"Huh." Uma laughed at Hugo, "I think there will be a lot of people willing to invite you, as long as you're willing to unbutton your shirt a few more." "Imagine a handsome porter with a strong chest? This is definitely a plot that has made countless housewives fantasize, which is similar to the fantasy of plumbers and firefighters.

Hugo apparently understood the meaning of Uma's words, looked down at his chest, and then pouted and smiled, "I hope I won't let them down." ”

Hugo and Uma go back and forth, the temptation between words. The confusion couldn't be more obvious, making the eyes of the two people more hot. It's just that Uma is standing in the sunlight at this time, and Hugo is sitting in the shadows, so Uma feels that the sunlight is a little dazzling and can't see clearly, and Hugo also feels that Uma's expression is a little blurry and unpredictable, so the two of them have to look away and let their tired eyes rest.

"Hey, Uma, are you here to buy furniture too?" Hugo raised his head again and took the initiative to ask. But for some reason, Uma laughed so hard that Hugo thought he had said the wrong thing.

Uma also seemed to realize her faux pas, and quickly restrained her smile, "No, I just think it's very strange when you call my name. ”

"Uma?" Hugo didn't quite understand it, and spoke again.

Uma couldn't help but snort and laugh again, her sexy lips blooming in the sunlight, like a blooming tulip, exuding a charming fragrance. Uma smiled and waved her hand repeatedly, "It's not your fault, it's not your fault. Hugo was puzzled, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily outlined an arc.

"That's right, don't you think my name is weird?" Uma quickly explained, but there was still a smile on her face that didn't completely dissipate, "Everyone else has been laughing at my name all the time, thinking that my name is ridiculous. So a lot of the time, I use the names of ordinary girls like Linda and Kelly to meet new people. However, when you call my name, it sounds surprisingly good. ”

"Sounds good?" Hugo raised an eyebrow, which made Uma shy avoid Hugo's smiling eyes, and she realized that she seemed to be boasting. Hugo continued, "Is it because I called your name in a musical way?" "The name uma is pronounced with a lot of sound, but it has some simple rhymes.

Hugo's explanation made Uma laugh directly, "Your name is really nice, at least I think it's too much more distinctive than those ordinary Linda and the like, which makes you unique, doesn't it?" Hugo continued, his gentle and warm tone was unassuming, but it made Uma feel very comfortable and relaxed easily, "Does your name have any special meaning?" ”

"You're the first person to say my name is nice." Uma stood there, looking at Hugo earnestly with a pair of beautiful azure eyes.

Hugo pursed his lips and said indifferently, "I hope your parents won't be sad when they hear this." ”

Uma smiled again, "No, they won't. This name represents their cherishing and longing for me, and it is the name of God in Hinduism. ”

"Although I am not a believer in Hinduism, the name does suit you well." Although Hugo's words are simple, they don't have any polite and unfamiliar feeling, which makes people feel very comfortable, especially the faint smile on the corner of his mouth, which is so warm and comfortable.

Uma finally confirmed his inner thoughts, the Hugo in front of him was different from before, the previous Hugo was also sunny, but the previous Hugo seemed to be sharper, as if the sun was dazzling, although dazzling, but it would also make people unable to look directly; And now Hugo, it is still sunny, but it is more gentle, even if you look directly, there is no harm, but you can clearly feel the warm temperature.

To put it simply, the previous Hugo was more dangerous and would make people feel stimulated; But now Hugo is even more attractive, and the warmth is almost intoxicating.

"I think I'm going to get used to my name." Uma has not been able to get out of the shadow caused by the specialization of his name until now, but in Hugo's soft words, Uma feels that it seems that the name is not so bad, at least it sounds very good in Hugo's mouth.

Hugo chuckled and nodded, then asked, "You haven't told me yet, what are you doing here?" Is it to buy furniture? ”

"Oh no, I'm going there for dinner." Uma pointed to the restaurant not far away, and after speaking, she hesitated for a moment and took the initiative to extend an invitation, "How about it, would you like to join me?" I'm alone tonight. In fact, after the premiere of "The Final Analysis" last time, Uma wanted to invite Hugo, but in the end she still didn't speak, after all, Hugo used to take the initiative to invite and she refused, which was still a little awkward. Today she finally took the initiative to speak.

Hugo raised his eyebrows, as if he was a little surprised, but he didn't let Uma stay where he was for long, and then smiled and said, "I just moved to a new house, and I still have a lot of things to do today, and I still have friends waiting at home, I'm afraid not." I'm really sorry, I hope next time. ”

Although he was rejected, Hugo's tone was not repulsive, and Uma buried her disappointment well in her heart and smiled, "It's okay. Then he changed the subject, "You moved to a new house today?" ”

"yes, just moved here." After Hugo finished speaking, he thought about it, and still said enthusiastically, "If you have the opportunity in the future, you can come and be a guest, and I will live at the back of the sunset square." Hugo gave the address of his new home.

"On that little hill?" Uma naturally knew the area, "I also live in the neighborhood, it seems like it's only three streets away from your house. ”

"Hehe, that's really a coincidence, I can come out and sit down when I have the opportunity in the future." Hugo's words were full of sunshine and sincerity, which made Uma lose his mind for a moment, but he quickly reacted, and then looked at Hugo deeply, "Then I won't bother you, my stomach has begun to summon food, I'd better solve this first major problem first." ”

"You can leave quickly, because my stomach has been awakened by you, and that's not a good thing." Hugo's teasing immediately made Umahaha laugh, and this time she didn't say anything more, waved at Hugo, and then turned away. The slender and elegant back reflects a graceful light in the sunlight.
