Chapter 219: May Cause Retardation

After showing goodwill, Barry Diller asked about the results of the negotiations between Eric and Murdoch just now, and Eric did not hide it, and revealed to Barry Diller about the Firefly's stake in the Fox television network.

Barry Diller's reaction to the results was similar to that of Jeffrey and Robert, and after repeatedly confirming that what Eric said was true, Barry Diller's face changed many times in a row, and finally silently patted Eric on the shoulder and walked away with a lonely expression.

Eric can also relate to Barry Diller's feelings. The Fox Television Network began in preparation in 1986 and has grown into the fourth largest wireless television station in North America in just four years, with Barry Diller playing a major role.

But even so, Barry Diller only has less than 5% of Fox's management shares, and Eric can take 10% of Fox TV Network with just one TV series. However, Eric does not feel sorry for Barry Diller in the slightest, the world has always been so unfair, and the one who gives the most is not the one who gets the most in many cases.

After navigating through the crowd and dealing with a few greetings or conversations, Eric finally found Aniston, and the little girl was chatting with Nicole with great interest.

"Jenny, what are you talking about, so happy?" Eric greeted Nicole with his eyes, and then put his arms around Aniston's waist and kissed her lightly on the cheek.

Eric made this intimate gesture in public, and Aniston shrunk her neck a little shyly, and said in disgust, "We're talking about girls." What are you asking for?"

"Huh. I'm most interested in the topic of girls. Tell me about it. Eric teased, the hand on Aniston's waist through the thin dress, and pinched the sensitive little flesh around the girl's waist in a strange way, causing Aniston to be coquettish again.

Nicole looked at Eric and Aniston with a smile on her face, and was a little jealous in her heart, but Eric raised her head at this time, as if she felt that Nicole had nothing to do, and said casually: "Nicole." I'm a little hungry, can you get me some food?"

Probably because she had developed some habits during her time as a maid in Eric's house, Nicole nodded subconsciously, and after reacting, she only hesitated and walked to the dining table not far away with a smile.

Aniston saw Nicole's 'rudeness' like that of a servant, and broke free from Eric's arms in dissatisfaction: "Eric, how can you be like this, hey, Nicole. Wait for me, don't listen to this guy. Let him starve to death. ”

The little girl shouted and chased after Nicole.

Eric was stunned, it had only been an hour, how could it be ...... Girlfriends are on. Hasn't the little girl always been uninterested in the heroine of her movie?

"Silly girl, just put your heart in the heart when you coax indiscriminately. Eric, get rid of it as soon as possible, if you continue to develop, even if you have your IQ as the foundation, you may be neutralized by her genes, you may give birth to mental retardation. ”

Eric followed the voice, reached out and pressed on the head of Drew's shortened bag, and rubbed it a few times: "I worked hard in school, and even such a high-end word as genes popped out." ”

Little Nizi called a few times, knowing that Eric was talking back, and protested dissatisfiedly, "It's night, and I didn't skip class." ”

Eric grabbed the girl's little ear and asked, "From the girls' school in Pasadena, northeast of Los Angeles, to Malibu, it is more than fifty kilometers through the entire city. With the road conditions in Los Angeles, you can't necessarily get here by car for two hours, tell me, when did you start coming here without skipping class?"

Drew could only tilt his head slightly because of Eric's tugging of his ears, but his small mouth defended unconvinced: "Who would be so stupid to walk around the city, don't you know that there is such a thing as a highway? It doesn't take an hour to take Highway 101 from Pasadena and then turn to Mulholland Road." Oops...... It hurts!"

With Eric's slight force, the girl immediately closed her mouth, her eyes became watery after a few blinks, and she looked at Eric begging for mercy.

The people around looked at the movement curiously, and some people who didn't know the situation would ask their companions a few words, and then look at Eric with a bit of ambiguity in their eyes. Aniston, who was about to walk over with Nicole with a small dinner plate, saw Eric pulling Drew's ear, and immediately snorted coldly, pulled Nicole and said, "Nicole, let's go, starve him to death." ”

Nicole hesitated for a moment, gave Eric a helpless look to Eric who had already seen herself and Aniston, and turned around and left with the little girl.

Eric was about to continue to teach Xiao Nizi a few words, but the person who was unhappy with Eric's 'child abuse' still bravely appeared.

"Hey, Eric, how can you be so rude to a girl!" said Elizabeth, who had walked with Julia, raised her eyebrows and opened Eric's hand, pulling Drew to her side.

Little Nizi hid behind Elizabeth and funkyly stuck her tongue out at Eric.

Eric couldn't figure out whether Elizabeth really didn't know the situation or was pretending to be stupid, but since someone was meddling, he couldn't continue to teach Nizi a lesson.

"Liz, what's the matter?"

Elizabeth thought that Eric would defend herself, but when she heard the other party say this, she had to say, "Julia is leaving, won't you send it away?"

Julia, who was standing behind Elizabeth, didn't expect the girl to say this, and quickly pulled Elizabeth's dress.

Eric glanced at Julia, and when he saw Julia's dodging gaze, he knew that this was Elizabeth's own initiative, but he still nodded briskly: "Okay," After speaking, seeing that Xiao Nizi was about to slip away, Eric glared at the girl: "Don't run, follow me." ”

"Julia, it's not even ten o'clock, why are you going back so early?" asked Eric as he walked towards the parking lot outside the villa.

Julia opened her mouth hesitantly: "I ......"

"Julia is not feeling well today, why are you asking so clearly?" Seeing the girl's embarrassed look, Elizabeth immediately cleared the siege beside her.

Eric nodded knowingly, but the action made Julia's face flush slightly.

When a few people arrived at the parking lot, Eric said, "Julia, can you do me a favor?"

"Huh?" Julia looked at Eric curiously.

Eric pulled the bored finger boy Nizi behind the three of them, "Let Drew stay with you for the night, and help me take her to school tomorrow, okay?"

"No, I'm not going. Xiao Nizi immediately screamed, and when she saw Eric's unquestioning eyes, she had to nod aggrievedly. She also understood that Eric might be taking Aniston home tonight, and that he would be too likely to let himself get up and cause trouble.

Watching the girl get into the co-pilot of Julia's car, Eric explained a few words to Julia uncomfortably before letting the two of them leave.

When Julia drove away from the manor gate with Little Nizi, Eric did not return to the villa, but sat down on a bench in a nearby garden.

Elizabeth hesitated for a moment, then came over and sat down next to Eric, and when she saw Eric take out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and light it, Elizabeth opened her mouth slightly, realizing that it was outside, so she didn't stop it.

Eric lit his cigarette and took a deep breath, exhaling the pale cyan smoke before turning his head and asking, "Liz, what's the matter?"

"Are you distressed?" asked Elizabeth instead of answering. Seeing Eric's confused expression, Elizabeth added with a teasing face: "You have to deal with so many women, are you a little too busy to hide here and smoke?"

Eric smiled: "How is it possible, I don't have many women, besides, movies and women are the two major pursuits in my life, and it's too late for me to enjoy them, how can I be troubled by this." ”

It was the first time Elizabeth had heard such a straightforward point of view, and she rolled her eyes and said, "Your pursuit is really enough...... Vulgar. ”

Eric ignored Elizabeth's accusations, and slowly enjoyed the cool sea breeze in the dim street light with a cigarette in his hand, intending to stay quietly for a while. Originally, I thought that Elizabeth would leave because she couldn't stand the coldness of the scene, but when she finished smoking a cigarette, the girl was still sitting next to him, which made Eric a little uncomfortable. This woman was inexplicably lying here, what exactly did she want to do, pondering for a while, before Eric tentatively asked: "Liz, your father forced you to be my director's assistant, or I will talk to Mr. Murdoch, and forget about this matter?"

"Do you hate me?" asked Elizabeth again.

Eric shook his head, "I've never hated pretty women. ”

When Elizabeth heard Eric's words, her heartbeat increased inexplicably, but her mouth was still unforgiving: "You really don't forget your flamboyant tongue all the time, you are really a playboy." ”

Hearing this, Eric turned his head and leaned lazily on the back of the bench, unscrupulously admiring the girl's body wrapped in a dress, and showed a wicked smile as if teasingly: "Then you don't hurry up and run away." ”

Under Eric's aggressive gaze, the girl almost wanted to subconsciously cover her chest, but in the end she forced this impulse down, and refused to admit defeat: "You narcissist, why should I run away." ”

Eric glanced at the girl's feet, which had been easily overlapped, but now she had stepped on the ground, and did not speak again, took out another cigarette and lit it, combing through the events of the night in her heart, and scanning her surroundings with a bored look. (To be continued......)
