1899 Growing pains
"Haha. Ha ha. Lan Li really didn't hold back, clapped his hands and laughed, showing his true temperament unreservedly in front of Paul.
Paul, however, couldn't laugh at the black lines on his head, "If she's writing to you, she can tell me, and I won't be thinking about it!"
"Are you sure? If she told you, you wouldn't be cranky?" Lan Li's eyes still had a faint smile, but a simple sentence made Paul freeze. Lan Li carefully looked at Paul's face, and then noticed that Paul's eyes were a little strange and dodged, and instead looked straight ahead.
Thinking about it seriously, Lan Li's mind flashed, "God, Paul, you don't think I like Meadow, do you?"
Paul didn't expect Lan Li to say it so generously, but his speculation and suspicion made him look petty, and his cheeks couldn't help but heat slightly, "I'm sorry, Lan Li, I shouldn't doubt your character." Meadow is still underage, and Paul does need to apologize for his crankiness, "But, I mean, you won't like Meadow, but Meadow might like you." You are a mature and handsome man, charismatic, and honestly, I would like you if I were a woman. You don't like Meadow, but Meadow probably likes you. ā
Lan Li was a little weak and a little funny, but he couldn't be angry with Paul: because Paul was Meadow's father, he must still be most worried about Meadow no matter what. Caring is chaotic, and Mei Duo is always secretive, so he will inevitably be cranky.
"Paul. Lan Li was rarely serious, but such an attitude made Paul panic, "Lan Li, I didn't mean that...... lā
Lan Li shook her head, "Paul, I need to explain this to you formally. You are Meadow's father, and you have the right to care about all Meadow's problems. I'm Meadow's friend, but only if I'm your friend. If Meadow really likes me, believe me, I'll take care of this matter, I won't let Meadow get hurt, but I won't give her a chance, understand?"
Paul was slightly stunned, and his expression became embarrassed, "Lan Li, I'm sorry. ā
"No, no, no, don't be sorry, it's your right. It's your responsibility to protect Meadow, and you need to be careful, even if it's me, you need to take precautions. "You should also know how complicated Hollywood is and you need to be vigilant." ā
Now, on the contrary, Paul is a little restless.
Lan Li didn't continue to persuade him, but he was really able to forgive, and he was not angry at Paul's suspicion at all, on the contrary, he actually envied the family relationship between Paul and Meadow, because it was something that the Hall family could not find, Edith and Arthur...... That's another way of showing affection.
"But I can assure you that Meadow has no reverie for me, and I like Rooney very, very much, and I have no intention of ruining this beautiful relationship for the time being. Lan Li's tone immediately relaxed, "You should know that I am your friend, Mei Duo treats me as an elder rather than a peer, she thinks I am an uncle, but this uncle happens to be relatively young and able to complete communication, besides, she doesn't know who to tell about you, so she can only tell me." ā
"My business?" Paul was a little stunned.
Lan Li nodded, "Well, during your recovery, you have a little bit of PTSD sequelae, it's not serious, everything is under control, but Mei Duo is still very worried about you." She can't just talk to her friends about it, Rebecca can't understand her, and your family isn't that close to her, and she doesn't know who else to talk to but me. You know what? A lot of the time the content of our letters, she's talking about you, and I might reply to one occasionally, but more often than not, she treats me like a tree hole. You know, the lifeless kind. ā
Paul scratched his head jerkily, looking more and more embarrassed.
"Well, guilty, have you? wronged me? Don't worry, I'll put the next drink on your account. "Lan Li is Lan Li, he always has a way to defuse the situation, and then make the atmosphere harmonious again, Paul can sense Lan Li's calmness and straightforwardness, which also makes him really relaxed.
Lan Li continued, "As a friend of Mei Duo, I promised her to keep it a secret, but as your friend, I also promised you to keep Mei Duo safe. I can reveal a little secret, but you promise not to ask, okay?"
Paul hesitated, but since it was Lan Li, he nodded in affirmation.
"Meadow has a boy he likes now, wait, wait, Paul, calm down!" Lan Li said a word, and then he noticed that Paul almost hit the brakes, and he couldn't help but tease, "Hey, man, can we slow down a bit? I'm not Jack, and you're not Ruth." ā
The little nervousness that Paul had just emerged was dissolved into invisibility by Lan Li, "Lan Li!"
Lan Li didn't care at all, "Calm down, calm down! Mei Duo just has a good feeling, but she hasn't confessed yet, and the boy doesn't know at all." ā
"He dares! My Meadow is so good, how can he refuse!" Paul clenched his fists.
"Then what if he accepts it?" Paul found himself unable to refute, "Look, that's why Meadow won't want to tell you. Paul, you are a father, and it is your responsibility to worry about Meadow, but sometimes you really worry too much, so you might as well leave these things to me, and I will help Meadow with the gatekeepers, and you should trust me. Some things I'll tell you, and some won't, don't you?"
Paul wailed, "Why can't she tell me directly?" but then Paul realized the contradiction, and after being stunned, he couldn't help laughing, "She still hasn't told me, I can't stay calm." I'm probably going to find out all about the boy's family and even start stalking him...... Oh God, I'm the crazy dad of the legend. ā
Lan Li patted Paul on the shoulder, but smiled silently.
Endured and endured, but Paul still didn't hold back, "Lan Li, what's going on with that boy?"
"I can only reveal one thing, surf boy, who is her age. Lan Li said succinctly, seeing that Paul still wanted to express his opinion, Lan Li shook his head firmly, "Paul, I promised Mei Duo that I can't reveal it to you. If she knew I'd tell you these things...... Well, she's probably going to keep talking to me, but she's definitely going to complain to me, I don't have the time or energy to deal with these teenage teenage complaints, okay?"
Looking at Lan Li's disgusted expression, Paul muttered with a sad face, "...... Well, she can come to me. ā
This made Lan Li laugh out loud, so unhappy.
After waiting for a long time, Paul said, "Surfing...... A lot of surf boys are playboys, and I shouldn't have taken her to surf in the first place!
āā¦ā¦ Hahahaha!" Lan Li laughed happily, such an emotionally uncontrollable Paul, such a Paul who suffers from gains and losses, is a little cute, but Paul forgets another possibility - girls always like to put their ideal type closer to their father, because daughters are their father's little lover in the previous life, and it is precisely because of the positive influence of the father figure that they subconsciously look for objects similar to their fathers.
Surf boy, isn't that Paul?
But Paul is obviously a fan of the authorities, and Lan Li has no intention of piercing this, watching Paul worry about his daughter's youthful trivialities, in fact, this is also a kind of happiness.
Then Lan Li took the initiative to change the topic, "How about it, when did the crew start filming?
"After the premiere of your film this weekend, we're going to start reshooting, and if nothing else, the whole shoot should last about three weeks. Paul took a deep breath and refocused his attention, "We've met for a meeting, all the filming processes have been decided, and obviously safety is the number one thing, not only for me, but also for the stuntman, and we're all very careful right now." ā
"It's going to take a little bit of getting used to it, but I think I'm going to be fine. Paul patted the steering wheel in his hand - today he served as the driver of Lanli, and proved that he has no psychological shadow with practical actions.
Lan Li also smiled.
"As for the crew,......" Paul paused for a moment, "After I announced my departure, I experienced a lot of turmoil, but the overall situation is still developing in the direction you said, and now it's ......" Paul's expression became a little strange, and he couldn't help but cast a confused look at Lan Li, "Now the whole crew is trying to get along with me, what is the reason for this?"
Paul has no interest in intrigue, and can even be said to have no desires, naturally, he doesn't know much about the interests involved, he can vaguely perceive that the matter should be related to Lan Li, but he has no way to see through the intricate connections behind the matter.
Lan Li pursed the corners of his lips and explained in a relatively simple way, "You know, those who ask for something have loopholes, and those who ask for nothing can be transcendent. You choose to turn around and leave, which means that you don't care about those powers and interests, but they do, so they need your 'power', and when you leave the crew, those who are good friends with you will also be able to have your legacy in the crew. ā
Paul thought for a moment and threw out another question, "Including Fan?" After a pause, he continued, "I mean, even Fan is starting to be kind to me, but the problem is, he doesn't need to please me, does he?"
Lan Li said meaningfully, "No, on the contrary, he is the one who needs to please you the most now." It's just that he's only realizing it now, isn't it too late? He's not a smart man, but he's not hopelessly stupid. ā
At the very least, Diesel finally understood a truth: some people have some things that cannot be offended after all, and kicking the iron plate will not only hurt the toes, but can also have endless consequences. It's a good thing that he's willing to bow his head, at least not to lose everything, now it's just a loss of self-esteem and pride, but he can still have his own career.
Or rather, lingering?
