"It's just you discussing, neither Meadow nor Meadow is involved. ”

Faced with Lan Li's serious expression of innocence, Paul was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head helplessly, indicating that he could not refute it, so he could only laugh dumbly.

Lan Li also laughed, "If you haven't heard the latest gossip in the gossip hotbed, then I think things shouldn't have changed much." ”

Still teasing Paul.

Paul chuckled and spread his hands and admitted, "I'm trying to enjoy my hospital life, please don't discourage me." ”

Time flies, a full seven weeks have passed since the car accident, Paul is completely out of danger, but the long recovery period after brain surgery still confines Paul to the hospital bed, he needs more time to fully recover - and even if he is discharged from the hospital, he is not 100% Paul after all, of course, he can still participate in surfing and climbing, but he needs to pay more attention to his body.

Injuries didn't spare his body, and the years didn't make it much easier.

Then Paul saw Lan Li put on a deaf face, and then he smiled contentedly, and briefly told the story of the matter.

In fact, Paul is really not good at words, whether it is daily conversation or storytelling, this is not his forte, but a funny gossip presents a lackluster dry state, like stuffing a mouth full of bread but not finding a mouthful of water to ease his breath.

It's not complicated.

Chris Hemsworth is also in the ranks of invitations at this year's Oscars - as a guest of honor, as an "idol" actor from a superhero, his appearance is his signature, naturally he can't be sloppy, carefully selected a number of costumes, but he was never satisfied, and finally went around and around, Chris found Melvin and chose the Oscar dress for himself through Melvin.

It was a pleasure to work with.

Melvin successfully chose a suit made by Dior for Chris, which perfectly fits Chris's muscle curves, and at the same time presents Chris's body proportions, which is really eye-catching - the difference can still be seen in professional shots.

However, the rumors that have been boiling in the past few days have made Melvin's professional ability questioned a lot - although the cooperation between Melvin and Lan Li was not successful, mainly because Melvin "looked down on people" and misestimated Lan Li, which was not directly related to his own professional ability;

Melvin's situation suddenly became tricky, not a street rat, but it was not far off.

Chris expressed strong concern, but he couldn't tell whether he was worried that he would be implicated by Melvin and stand on the opposite side of Lan Li again, or whether he was worried that Melvin's choice of clothing might affect his Oscar journey, or whether he was worried about something else, he wanted to dissolve the partnership with Melvin, and even the Dior dress that Melvin had already selected, he wanted to refuse.

Dior said that he was confused and was implicated inexplicably.

However, Dior is a big brand, they have never lacked partners, so naturally they won't mind the withdrawal of an actor, let alone Chris, even if Lan Li refuses Dior's costume sponsorship, they won't have too much regret. What really cares is Melvin.

Melvin approached Chris himself and lobbied to try to convince Chris to keep the relationship going - at least this time the collaboration continued, after all, it was not easy to find a new outfit on the fly, and Chris was not a blue gift, and he could not get such a unique treatment.

Later, Chris reluctantly nodded and agreed to the cooperation, not continuing to push Melvin far.

But the truth is that I heard that Dior was originally going to find Chris as a spokesperson, and a long-term cooperation will be formed in the future, and they will be responsible for Chris's ceremonial costume styling. When Chris heard the news, he continued his collaboration with Melvin. Paul didn't deliberately create suspense, and just broke the news.

Not only that, but there should obviously be a follow-up to the story – is Dio willing to buy it, has Dio's attitude towards Chris changed, can Chris's one-sided enthusiasm have an impact on Dio's original intentions? These are the core points of the whole gossip.

But Paul's gossip ends there, and there is no more.

Sure enough, Paul wasn't fit for storytelling.

After the dry gossip was finished, Paul didn't wait for the effect reaction he was expecting, his eyes couldn't help but widen, and he looked at Lan Li helplessly, "Are you not listening carefully at all?"

"Does gossip need to be serious?" Lan Li did not deny, but asked rhetorically.

"Of course! Only when you seriously understand the ins and outs of gossip can you devote yourself to it, as if you were watching a Colombian soap opera!" Paul argues reasonably, but it is not his words, but from the patients and nurses, who persuaded him in the first place that he was not interested in gossip;

Looking at the calm Lan Li, Paul's chest collapsed like this, and he sighed depressedly, "It's really demoralizing to talk to you! I'm working on it, haven't you noticed?"

Why do you want to work hard?work hard...... Sharing gossip? What the hell is going on with no beginning or end?

Lan Li's head was full of question marks, and he turned his head to look at Mei Duo, but he saw that Mei Duo stuck out his tongue, and he also looked confused, unable to explain Paul's actions and words, "Paul?" Lan Li raised his last note and asked out loud.

Paul looked at Lan Li, but found that Lan Li really didn't know why—or rather, Lan Li was so well disguised that Paul couldn't see through it, in either case, it made Paul a little discouraged, he simply lay down on the hospital bed, put his right hand on his head, blocked his vision, avoided Lan Li's gaze, didn't speak, and seemed to be sulking.

Lan Li's eyebrows furrowed slightly, seriously recalling the ins and outs of the whole conversation, but he still had no clue, because he really didn't care about Melvin, and the follow-up news was impossible to know at all.

Even more absurd, why did Paul insist so much on Melvin's gossip?

Lan Li thought that he knew enough about Paul, but at this moment he was completely confused, and could even be said to be inexplicable: which piece of the puzzle was missing?

After a short silence, Paul was still unable to hold on, sat up straight again, and looked at Lan Li again, "So Sisyphus Pictures' latest development plan, aren't you going to share it with me?"

From Melvin to Sisyphus Pictures, the topic jumped a bit widely.

"Lan Li, I thought we were best friends, if not the closest, but at least I should be one of them, I thought you would be willing to ask for my help, at least when you need it, I thought we talked before that we could shoot on our own and create characters for ourselves, and I should be one of them about Sisyphus Pictures. ”

Paul was angry.

His tone was a little agitated and a little urgent, and although there was no outburst of anger, the tense voice was enough to prove that Paul was expressing full dissatisfaction and accusation.

Lan Li only reacted at this time: It turns out that this is the reason why Paul talks about gossip so abnormally today? In addition to the rumors of Melvin and Chris, the rumors about Sisyphus Pictures have also been boiling for a while, especially after Sundance, and there are countless truths and falsehoods, and Paul must have heard them.

“…… Paul. Lan Li opened her mouth, trying to say something.

But rarely, Paul interrupted Lan Li's words, "No, Lan Li, you listen to me!" Paul's expression was a little excited, and his eyes caught Mei Duo's figure, "Mei Duo, you leave, I have something to talk about with Lan Li." ”

Meadow did not move, but stubbornly met Paul's gaze. She didn't want to leave, especially not wanting Paul to quarrel with Lan Li.

"Meadow!" Paul raised his voice again, his expression unusually serious.

But Mei Duo still stubbornly sat in place, and her body faintly leaned a little in the direction of Lan Li, expressing her position in this way. The immature and young face had a different stubbornness from Paul, and in a trance, Paul seemed to see Meadow's mother Rebecca again, and the follow-up words were stuck in his throat.

Paul clenched his fists, but after all, he didn't say anything more, and looked at Lan Li again, "I know I know, you always have your own interpretation and control of things, you can always see what I can't see, this is a fact, I know everything." There are many times when I can't help, but, Lan Li, I'm your friend, I can't always ask you for help, occasionally, even very, very occasionally, when you need help, I want you to know that I will always be by your side. ”

"I know. Lan Li didn't refute, but nodded obediently in acknowledgement.

But Paul, who was now in a state of emotion, did not notice Lan Li's softness, but took the opportunity to say, "Yes, you should know that. You know, how upset I was when I heard from the hospital nurse that Sisyphus Pictures was raising money, and you never asked me for my opinion? It wasn't you, not even Andy or Ryan, who heard that from the nurse. I thought you should have taken the initiative to ask me, if not the first, at least you should have come to me. We're friends. ”

The atmosphere suddenly became a little solemn, without warning.
