Mark is busy with publicity work, if it weren't for his sister Kayla and Blake mentioning, he wouldn't know that the annual Christmas is coming, whether it is 2017 Mark or 2003 Mark, he is not the Lord of Christmas, it is normal to be insensitive to this holiday, since someone took the initiative to mention it, it is necessary to prepare gifts, Mark took time out of his busy schedule and sneaked to the mall to buy gifts.

This year's Christmas is a bit deserted at home, although Sophia bought a Christmas tree and arranged lights on it, looking like the festival is coming, but there is no party at home, Sophia, David, Kayla, Donald They went to her mother's house for the holiday, Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, Sophia invited Mark to go with her, but Mark remembered Isabel's face, according to David, Sophia's sisters are all this kind of goods, Mark decided not to go, said: "I promised Blake, spend Christmas Eve and Christmas together!"

Donald envied, "This is very cool!" Donald's envy made Mark know that he had made the right decision, the Ronaldson family's Christmas party was luxurious and luxurious, but not everyone wanted to go.

Donald came back after the holidays, he has been busy operating Facebook this semester, but if he has any questions, he calls Mark for advice, and the operating expenses are also paid by Mark, the cost of 200,000 has already been used up, Mark has added another 200,000, and now Facebook has gained a firm foothold in the Wharton School, and has radiated to the surrounding schools, becoming a more popular social networking site in the university community, because of the information support provided by Mark, the old bird, Facebook has been shown as a social networking site from the beginning, which is two years earlier than the original version, Mark proudly thought that this Facebook came out early, there should be nothing to do with Xiaozha's Facebook。

Mark prepared a gift, he remembered that today the school organized a Christmas art show, Blake was the organizer of the event, and also participated in a program, she played Juliet in the drama "Romeo and Juliet", she warmly invited Mark to watch, but Mark was really busy, there is interest in watching the drama performance of high school students? He also has three representatives of the theater to meet, and now fortunately, the representative of the theater can not come for a while, Mark rushed to the school immediately after buying the gift.

When Mark arrives in the school auditorium, the show is almost over, and Blake sees Mark walking in with a bouquet of roses, smiling all over his face, and immediately playing, if it weren't for the opponent's prompting, she would have forgotten her lines.

Mark crept in, the students were all intently watching the play, and not many people noticed, and when he saw that Blake had noticed him, he gave him a thumbs up in appreciation, and then found a place to sit.

The performance ended quickly, after the curtain call, Mark was waiting at the backstage door with flowers, and some students who passed by saw Mark, with a surprised look on their faces, obviously recognizing him, today's Mark is considered a big man in Hollywood, and he is a big man in school.

Blake came out like a cheerful deer, threw himself into Mark's arms, and kissed the roses, she was so hot and hot, Mark was a little embarrassed to see so many people watching.

Blake said happily, "How's my performance?"

Mark said, "Audition failed!"

Blake slapped Mark coquettishly, and Mark changed his words: "You are a qualified stage actor who can perform on Broadway, I missed a wonderful show." ”

Blake became happy and said, "Aren't you going to meet with a few theater representatives?"

Mark said, "They can't come because of something, so the meeting is canceled, can you go? ”

Blake said, "I'll go get my bag." As the organizer of the event, in fact, she still has some things to do, Mark took the time to accompany her, which is very rare, she didn't want to miss it, she just handed over the work to someone else, Blake ran back to say a few words and then ran out with the bag and took Mark's hand and left.

Mark and Blake went to the city to play, bought some small gifts before going back to eat, Christmas is approaching, the streets are full of lights, many places are placed with pine trees, full of festive atmosphere, but affected by the SARS virus that is raging all over the world, the flow of people is not concentrated, and it looks like the market is cold.

SARS virus North is not the hardest hit area, China and Southeast Asia are, the World Health Organization has issued a travel ban, many flights have been canceled, Mark is planning to go back to his uncle to pay New Year's greetings, but this was forced to cancel, the good news is that the villagers in his hometown are fine, Mark donated 500,000 US dollars to the Red Cross after receiving the share of "This Man is from Earth", and he also received a letter of thanks.

Mark and the others walked around a few times, then went home for dinner, and when the two of them walked back with their fingers clasped together, Tom and Claire were still enthusiastic, only Mason said in a strange voice: "I thought Director Mark had forgotten the road to our house." "It's the first time he's been to Lively House for dinner since he's gotten along with Blake.

Blake smiled and explained to Mark: "Actually, Mark has always wanted to come, but he is so busy with work that he almost lives in the office." ”

Tom put down the newspaper, took off his glasses, and said, "Mark you should give more work to Will and the people around you, if you keep being so busy, you won't even have time to spend with your girlfriend in the future." ”

Mark said: "I know, now it's mainly busy preparing for the holidays, after Christmas, our family is going to Switzerland for a holiday, and we won't be back until after the New Year, can I invite Blake to come along?"

Blake looked at Tom with joy and hope.

Mason frowned and said, "Blake didn't celebrate the New Year at home? This is a break in the tradition, we have always spent the New Year together as a family, this is a tradition, it has never changed, just like Sophia and they went back to their parents' house for the New Year, you have ruined our New Year's atmosphere like this?"

Both Mark and Blake were disappointed, and Tom said, "Let Blake decide?"

Blake hesitated for a moment, but said, "I still spend the New Year at home, I have never spent the New Year in a foreign country, which is very unaccustomed. ”

Mark is very disappointed, the vacation without his girlfriend, the fun is at least half less, he wants to be with his girlfriend more, the bed is warm at night, the air conditioning does not need to be turned on, and this is a week, now Blake said that he can't go, he is very disappointed, he has no appetite for food, he put down the knife and fork, and said, "I thought we said okay?"

"I'm sorry, but I have to be with my family. ”

Mark said, "OK!" He picked up the knife and fork and re-cut the steak, but with this unpleasantness, his appetite was much worse, he barely ate a steak, and he had no appetite, he usually had two or three pieces, Claire and Tom were a little embarrassed, but they didn't say anything, Mark and Blake were just boyfriend and girlfriend, for the sneaking between them, they turned a blind eye, Bi Jing They are all grown up, there is a need for this, but it doesn't seem appropriate to live together on a blatant vacation, only Mason is triumphant.

Mark ate dinner, said goodbye and left, if it was usual, he would definitely stay for an extra hour or two before leaving, but now he is not happy, everyone is a little uncomfortable, so he went home early, on the way back, he received a short message from Black, it was an sorry icon, Mark did not reply, and soon ICQ vibrated continuously, prompting that there was a message, as expected, it was sent by Black: "Sorry, I would love to go, but I don't want to disappoint Tom and Claire." ”

Mark replied, "So disappointed me?"

Blake replied: "You know I love you very much. ”

Mark replied: "Yes, sorry! I'm driving!"

As soon as Mark got home, Blake's message came back: "Are you home? Where are we going to play tomorrow?"

Mark replied, "I'd rather get a good night's sleep." ”

Blake replied, "Are you angry?"

Mark replied: "I only have these few days until the first half of next year, and we can't be together. ”

Blake replied, "Why did you cancel your plans to go to Switzerland?"

Mark said: "I promised Sophia and David early in the morning. ”

Blake replied, "I promised Tom too, why do you have to let me accommodate you?"

Mark came in as soon as he was angry, threw his phone on the bed, and was about to turn on the computer, when Donald knocked on the door, came in with a dozen beers, and said, "I hope it didn't bother you!

Mark said, "Of course, our brothers haven't had a drink together for a long time. ”

Donald Yuan is a very handsome and delicate person, he has been practicing for half a year in college, he has a more mature bearing, he looks very calm, now he is a first-year college student, and at the same time runs the social networking site Facebook, he is the CEO of Facebook, and there are seven or eight people under him, Donald said: " If it wasn't for the lawyer who informed me, I wouldn't have known that I had become a shareholder of MM Pictures, and I actually became the owner of a film company, and my classmate said Donald, you are so handsome, it's a pity not to be an actor, and I told him that I was the owner of the film company. ”

Mark said: "I can have MM, it can develop rapidly, it is inseparable from Sophia's strong support, I don't think that without the support of my family, I can start from scratch and develop so fast, so you and Kayla have equal interests, which is reasonable." "He knows what it means to be alone, and in terms of real value, Sophia's support for him is far greater than the value of the two of them, and without Sophia's strong support, he would not have gotten such a good contract with Warners.

Donald said, "Man, you deserve me to do this!"

Mark said: "You don't have to be too happy, it's actually not worth any money, the proceeds of "This Man is from Earth" and "Saw Horror" are stripped. ”

Donald said, "Isn't there still 'The Hangover'? Your ads are doing so well that even I see advertising posters everywhere in Philadelphia." ”

Mark said: "We have high hopes for 'The Hangover.' ”

Donald and Mark clinked their glasses and said, "You're going to make it." ”

"Why are you so happy to talk about?" said Sophia, leaning against the door, smirking, even in her dressing gown, she looked so graceful, graceful, and graceful.
