"I am not a nice person, on the contrary, I can be very evil. Especially when dealing with certain people. ”

The warm and elegant voice surged gently above the eardrums, and Chris could clearly notice that Lan Li still had a faint smile on his face, decent and polite, looking at himself intently, but the meaning behind the words made the spine begin to break out in a cold sweat, and he only felt a cold, as if he was ...... It's like the feeling of a prey being targeted by a hunter.

Inexplicably, Chris had a strange feeling that he was the prey.

This was the second time, and Chris couldn't help but shudder.

"Lan Li. Edith interjected, breaking the eye contact between Lan Li and Chris, and the weird feeling was broken in an instant, and in a trance, Chris thought it was his own delusion, "Seba and Chris met on the set, and now they are close friends, and they are very close personally, so, I thought, maybe you can make a new friend." ”

While speaking, Edith looked at Lan Li like this, without too many words, but the hint in her eyes couldn't be more obvious:

Did you notice Chris's right hand? Did you notice the way Chris and Sebastian got along? Did you notice the familiarity and intimacy between the two of them? Did you notice the abnormality? How is it? What kind of attitude do you have? Do you think this is normal? Are you sure there is nothing strange?

Lan Li's pupils contracted slightly, and there was a flash of helplessness in his eyes.

To be honest, he really couldn't understand such a brain circuit, wasn't all this a normal behavior? It was just a random gesture between men, why could he decipher so many derivative meanings? So, this is called ...... Is there a culture of corruption?

Ignoring Edith's hints, he looked at Chris and Sebastian, "Of course, always welcome." In fact, I've always been very curious about how the Marvel movies were filmed -- in the studio, and then on a green screen, and wouldn't that be very difficult? because when I was shooting Edge of Tomorrow, I used a partial green screen, but the whole thing was built physically, so ......."

"Boring!" Edie didn't hesitate to roll her eyes and spit bitterly, "God, Lanli, can't you just talk about something interesting? I remember you weren't so bored, you could talk about surfing, rock climbing, hiking, or other adventures." ”

Lan Li pursed the corners of her lips, "Don't you realize that the reason why I am talking about these topics is because there is a lady next to me." Can I only choose the topic of insurance?" Then, his gaze fell on Edith, and the tail of her eyebrows was slightly raised, "Or do you stay away for now, leaving enough space for us to talk about intimate topics between men." ”

Private.

Lan Li slightly accentuated his tone, not too obvious, but enough. Edith immediately understood, this was Lan Li's response to those speculations, not only did not rule out her speculations, but also deliberately teased, hinting that there was a cat between them.

Damn the guys.

Edith glared slightly, "I don't mind, to be exact, happy to hear it." How about Chris and Seba first, or between you and Chris? Or is it all the three of you?"

Originally, she thought that Lan Li would panic, but Edith only saw Lan Li show a standard gentlemanly smile, "If you want to be a bystander, then you are doomed to be disappointed." You know, sometimes, it's better to keep things a secret. ”

It was a demonic smile, and Edith shivered at once.

Chris and Sebastian, who were standing next to them, were completely confused, but they could clearly feel the tension between the two of them. Thinking about it carefully, the mode of getting along between Edith and Lan Li is really too relaxed and too direct, and it seems to be ...... It seems to have surpassed the status of friends, could it be said - they used to date?

After this conjecture came to Chris's mind, his smile couldn't help but stiffen slightly, and he approached Edith quietly, stood behind her, and changed the topic in a low voice, quietly dissolving the tense atmosphere, "Do we need to leave first? Didn't you say that you want to introduce your brother to me?

As if sensing Lan Li and Sebastian's inquiring gaze, Chris also realized his faux pas.

So, he quickly raised his head and explained with a smile, "Edith's younger brother is also an actor, and he has just been in the industry for two or three years, and he still lacks experience. During the small talk, Edith mentioned that maybe we could communicate, after all, we are peers. Unfortunately, the opportunity has never been found. I heard that he also attended the party tonight, but the crowd here was too turbulent and he was never able to find it. ”

Lan Li smiled and gently bowed her head in understanding, but she didn't smile.

Sebastian said simply, "Can't you give him a call?" and after saying that, he realized the stupidity of his words and patted his head, "I'm sorry, I forgot." ”

After entering the party, in order to maintain good manners and politeness, all mobile phones are kept in the dressing room on the second floor, and almost no one walks with communication tools. Of course, part of the reason is also to avoid taking photos and videos to prove it, and there must be no scandal at the Oscar night party.

Then, Lan Li could see that Edith had an eager expression on her face, as childish and bright as a high school student.

Edith's eyes flickered slightly, and the excitement before the prank was revealed, and then you could see that she was holding Chris's arm, and her mood became relaxed and happy again, "I agree, let's go visit my brother first." ”

The younger brother, Edith, also deliberately accentuated her tone.

Then, she solemnly spread out her palms and stretched out to Lan Li in front of her, "Chris, Seba, please get to know, this is my brother, Lan Li-Hall." ”

“……”

“……”

Silence, silence, silence, staring at each other, Sebastian had frozen into an icicle, and Chris's pupils began to vibrate violently, and his brain completely crashed, standing in place, his chin slightly open, as if there were some signs of dislocation, he couldn't close at all, trying to say something, but found that the voice was completely stuck in his throat, and he couldn't make a sound at all.

It's not a still picture.

But both Chris and Sebastian in front of him fell into a static state at the same time, and it seemed that even breathing had stopped.

Lan Li smiled at the two of them, and then stretched out his right hand towards Chris, "Good evening, Chris, today should be the first time we met, I'm Lan Li, this lady's brother, if I'm not mistaken, you should be dating right now." ”

However, there was no response.

Both Chris and Sebastian kept their mouths open in stunned state, and it seemed that they couldn't even move their pupils, Lan Li glanced at Edith helplessly, and complained mercilessly, "What should I do? You scared your boyfriend and his best friend." ”

“…… You...... I...... He ......" Chris was squeezing out the toothpaste little by little, his voice spitting out intermittently, and finally, as if he was a little broken, he involuntarily chuckled and shook his head again and again, "Ha, haha, hahaha." It's hilarious, it's really hilarious, and I'll admit that you lied to me!"

Lan Li: Now the top actor in the entire Hollywood pyramid is actually Edith's younger brother? The younger brother who is inexperienced and needs communication and guidance? The actor brother who needs help and guidance?

It's not true, it's definitely not true!

"It's a prank, isn't it?Edith?right?" Chris looked at Edith with a serious face, almost pleadingly, but he was disappointed, only to see Edith smile seriously, leaving no room to cut off all hope for Chris.

Chris was like a leaky balloon, his shoulders drooping heavily.

At this time, Sebastian, who was standing next to him, seemed to have finally come to his senses, lifted the appearance setting, and started working again, "Edith-Hall! Ranley-Hall! Yes, you are all Hall!" That extremely cheerful look swelled up, and he bumped Chris's shoulder with great excitement, and his eyes scanned back and forth between Ranley and Edith, "Right? Am I right?"

Strong mending.

Chris glared at his friend with resentment, but to no avail, Sebastian didn't notice at all, Chris could only lose, looked back at Lan Li, and said with difficulty, "So, Edith is your sister, uh...... So, you've known each other for a long time...... That's why you talk to each other so naturally and casually......"

Stammering, Chris's smile finally couldn't hold it anymore, he collapsed completely, covered his cheeks in annoyance, and began to jump in place, and then he couldn't help laughing, recalling his guess just now, the more he thought about it, the more ridiculous it became, and finally patted his head heavily, and looked at Lan Li solemnly, "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry." ”

"Well, I ...... Sorry, I'm Chris. Nice to meet you. Chris finally came back to his senses, stepped forward with a big stride, hugged Lan Li heavily, and patted Lan Li's back heavily, using all his strength to express his ...... Agitated.

After letting go of his embrace, Chris noticed Lan Li's outstretched right hand, and he realized, "Oh, I forgot. You're British, don't like hugging, please forgive me for being rude......" But halfway through the words, he got stuck again, and all his emotions turned gray, and he looked at Lan Li in a daze, repeating like a robot:

"You're British. You're Ranley Hall. You are a hereditary nobleman. ”

Lan Li glanced at Edith and complained with his eyes: This reflection arc is long, is it too exaggerated?

Then Lan Li looked at Chris again, "Yes, I'm that Lan Li-Hall." ”

Chris's jaw was like a rusty robot, "babbling", and it drooped directly, as if it was really dislocated, his pupils began to vibrate violently again, all the words were stuck, and his brain really fell into a state of collapse.
