2182 Bad spirits
Randall and Nathan fought like this, fighting back without giving an inch, making the atmosphere tense in an instant, and the sparks of saber rattling were about to erupt, and you could even feel that your fists had begun to clench, and the cold air became fierce.
"Shut up! Shut up!" Zoe finally couldn't take it anymore and shouted at Randall, forcefully interrupting the ridiculous and heated argument between the two, "Randall, I don't know why you're always making trouble, I thought we made it clear enough last night. It's not Lan Li who did something wrong now, it's us, you know? It's us! You don't want to apologize, but I want to be able to pass on my apologies! Why do you continue to hurt me?"
With a faint glimmer of hope, Zoe hopes to be able to meet Lan Li, and then tells him to his face: it is his music that gives her the strength to move forward when she walks through the trough, it is his persistence that makes her understand the weight of her dreams, and most importantly, it is his presence that guides her out of the darkness!
She wanted to be able to convey her apologies and thanks in person. But...... Everything was ruined by Randall, and so easily destroyed.
Zoe looked at Randall with despair, but Randall also looked at Zoe with despair - he wanted to express himself but couldn't find the right way, he wanted to get close to Zoe, but chose the wrong way, and then ...... There was no turning back from the bow, and he was trapped, so what should he do? What else could he do?
"Zoe...... I ......" Randall tried to explain that if he could pull his heart out and show his heart, he would not hesitate or pause now, and would do it immediately, but he couldn't, and he didn't know what to do, so he could only take two awkward steps forward, trying to close the distance.
But Zoe didn't give him a chance, "No! Don't say it anymore! I don't want to listen to those words of yours anymore, you're hurting me, you're still hurting Lan Li." That "I like you" was not a death-free gold medal, but it ruined their friendship, and if she heard that sentence again, Zoe would only get hurt more, perhaps, Randall never really knew her, did he?
Zoe couldn't stay here any longer, so she hurriedly handed her hat and wallet to Nathan with sadness and despair on her face, "I'm sorry, Nathan, please tell Lan Li, I'm sorry, I'm really, really sorry...... I'm sorry!" hesitated for a long time, but still couldn't find a better word, only a "sorry", and then, Zoe turned around and walked away without looking back.
Randall was left where he was, looking left and right, and stopped talking, but his eyes fell on Nathan's puffing expression and sharp eyes, and he couldn't say it after all, and then turned around like this, and quickly chased in the direction Zoe had left.
Nathan and the guard stood still, still confused, not understanding what was going on.
However, even if he didn't know the specific situation, Nathan was now full of annoyance, always wondering if they had done something rude to Lan Li last night. Although Nathan knew that Lan Li would definitely be able to handle it and didn't need his worry at all, he still couldn't hold back.
"What the hell happened last night?" said Nathan took the initiative to bring John's wallet to Simon, and then asked with burning eyes, his uncontrollable anger making him a little impatient.
"What?" Simon was a big, white and chubby man, but ginger-headed, red-haired, and full beard that almost covered his entire chin, and he was enjoying his breakfast, when he was suddenly stared at by Nathan with execution-like eyes, and he was a little overwhelmed, and complained dissatisfied.
"Last night!wallet!hat!And just now I saw a man and a woman arguing, aren't you curious about what happened last night?, didn't John tell you?"
But Simon is a snail, slowly swallowing his expression and movements, not in a hurry at all, slowly and methodically stuffing the bacon into his mouth, revealing a "delicious in the world" expression, savoring it carefully, and even making a chewing sound, which makes Nathan's face full of lovelessness.
Catching another figure in the back of his eye, Nathan immediately waved his hands and kept beckoning, "Sam, Sam, come here!"
Sam Stanley, Ben Whisshaw's assistant, has a bald head with a crisp smile and does things neatly and without dragging his feet.
Sam walked over with his plate, and before he could say hello, Nathan asked, "Do you know what happened last night?
"What?" Sam was a little confused, but he didn't ask why, but slowly began to recall, "After Ben came back, he didn't say anything, just said that he admired Lan Li, and said that Lan Li was able to always maintain a state of wholehearted devotion to work under such pressure, which he would never be able to do. β
It's not a big deal, and it's impossible to tell what's going on.
"What's wrong? Is there anything I need to know?" Sam couldn't help but be a little curious, but he wasn't worried or nervous, more confused.
Nathan shook his head and briefly explained what had just happened at the door, "I always felt like something had happened, otherwise why would she keep apologizing?"
"Relax, I'm sure no one can hurt Lan Li. Simon still looked unhurried, and after saying half a sentence, he paused Xia Lao, took a sip of orange juice, and swallowed the food, and then said, "John came back and said a little bit, probably that Lan Li and they took the initiative to help two people whose cars broke down, but one of them in turn accused Lan Li of being hypocritical, and Lan Li didn't take it to heart. β
"What?" both Nathan and Sam were full of question marks, just a few words that couldn't piece together the whole picture, but they were enough to make people angry.
Nathan stood up even more suddenly, "How can they do this? God! I should have taught them a hard lesson just now!"
In just two sentences, Nathan's true attributes are exposed - although he is usually able to imitate Lan Li's look and form externally, and he is very steady in handling things, but in private, he is still the daredevil, who maintains his enthusiasm and stumbles, and Lan Li never asks him to change, which also leaves the purest piece of hot land in his heart.
"Catch him, catch him. Simon said quickly, and then Sam also grabbed Nathan at the same time:
It wasn't a big deal, but if Lan Li's assistant hit someone, then things might go off the rails - the words and actions of public figures are restrained in this way, even the others around public figures, because their every move represents the public image.
Nathan was stopped by Sam, but he was still panting heavily, "How can this be? Lan Li has done his best to keep a low profile and be polite, and they are going to throw dirty water on Lan Li, where did Lan Li offend them? What do they know? What are they expecting? Will they only stop if they hurt Lan Li?"
"Relax, relax!" Simon still looked like he was slow, "Lan Li wasn't so excited, he didn't pay attention to it at all." β
Then, Simon told him everything he had learned, and John didn't go into the details, just a few snippets of small talk with Simonβnot complete, but sufficient.
John also sighed that Lan Li's education and open-mindedness are indeed amazing. Simon said slowly, "Think about it, with Lan Li's current position in the industry, those jealous and hateful eyes will never disappear, because they only see what they want to see: Lan Li's brilliance, Lan Li's arrogance, Lan Li's alienation, but they don't know and don't want to know the story behind it, they just need a target." β
"Nathan, you should indeed stand up for Lan Li, but you should also learn to use the right way. Lan Li needs you to shield him from these ubiquitous attacks. Simon's unhurried words quieted Nathan.
Sam also came back with a sudden realization, "No wonder, Ben also sighed a lot last night." In fact, before the cooperation, we were all a little worried, Lan Li's current position is indeed different, and it is inevitable that there are still some details that need to be run in when cooperating, if the whole crew changes the style with Lan Li as the core, we will be very passive. Don't talk about us, even ......" Sam looked left and right, lowering his voice, "Even Ogles is always worried that Lan Li may interfere with the shooting, if Lan Li speaks, then Ogles is also in a difficult situation." Think about it, even those of us in the industry are like this, let alone those outsiders?"
Nathan was upset, "Are you speaking for them?"
Sam laughed dumbly, and hurriedly raised his hands in surrender, "No, no, no, I'm just saying that in the face of those criticisms, Lan Li's performance is indeed very mature. He never protested or defended, always insisted on his work, and spoke with his works, which is admirable. β
Nathan was still unhappy, and couldn't help but get irritable, "Then let's just forget it? Can't do anything?Lan Li has always insisted on himself, but the other dirty water can't stop at all, even you guys, so what should we do?"
"It's not that it can't, it's that it's not necessary. Simon said calmly, "Let me tell you, there are still very, very many viewers who don't like John now, and there are even people who provoke John on the street, thinking that he is not funny and has no acting skills, and he is ordinary, and he is not worthy of being an actor at all, and they even poured beer on John, just to provoke John and provoke John, do you know how John responded?"
Nathan and Sam both cast their eyes on him.
Without warning, Simon grimaced at them, funny and exaggerated, startling both Nathan and Sam, and then laughing.
