Chapter 294: Let the bride live
The bachelorette party was so spoofed that the news of Robert Downey Jr.'s marriage inevitably spread, but Robert Downey Jr. was prepared, and in order to avoid paparazzi and unnecessary trouble, he specially rented a luxury yacht and held the wedding at sea.

Since the explosion of "Deadpool", he has not only returned to the mainstream media's field of vision, but also attracted more attention than before.
On this day, the weather was clear and the sea was calm, and Murphy and James Franco, Seth Rogen, and Jonah Hill all changed into crisp suits and stood behind Robert Downey Jr. as the best man, and there were also three bridesmaids on the bride's side, two of whom were friends of Susan Levine and the other was Gal Gadot.
The top deck of the yacht is packed with guests, and a priest who regularly officiates weddings for Hollywood stars is already ready.
Robert Downey Jr. and Susan Levine stood across from the pastor and waited for the ceremony to begin.
"What did you say to the pastor before?" Murphy asked Jonah Hill in a low voice.
Before the wedding started, Jonah Hill went out of his way to find the pastor and say a few words, he was a little worried that this guy had gone too far, this was a wedding, not a bachelorette party.
Seth Rogun and James Franco also cast attention on them.
Jonah Hill squeezed his eyes at the three of them and said mysteriously, "I changed the pastor's lines in Donny's name. ā
"Changed the pastor's lines?" The three of Murphy looked at Jonah Hill in unison, their eyes like sword light.
"Rest assured, rest assured...... Jonah Hill hastened to say, "there is absolutely no spoof, I promise nothing will go wrong." ā
The wedding soon began, and then Murphy heard Jonah Hill go out of his way to get the pastor to change it.
"Mr. Donnie, whether the bride is poor, rich, sick, disabled, or ugly, will you love her for the rest of your life?"
Robert Downey Jr. didn't hesitate to say, "I do!" ā
The pastor who was the master of ceremonies should have asked the bride Susan Levine again, but instead of doing so, he went on to ask, "Mr. Downey, if you become poor, disabled, sick, or ugly in the future, will you let the bride live?" ā
Robert Downey Jr. obviously didn't expect such a question to pop up suddenly, was stunned, nodded and said, "I'm willing to ......"
Although there was a slight change because of Jonah Hill, the wedding went smoothly in general, and after the swearing-in ceremony, both the groom and the bride's father gave speeches, and then it was Murphy's turn as the best man's representative.
This was decided before, and it was voted on by a show of hands by the other three groomsmen.
Different from the previous parental speeches, the main purpose of the best man's speech is to liven up the atmosphere, and at the same time express his blessings to the couple on behalf of the guests and invite everyone to raise a glass together.
Since the relationship between the best man and the groom is usually close, you can deliberately "denigrate" the groom's past words and deeds during the speech, and if you can skillfully bring the "slander" back to the groom's love for the bride, it is a good move.
It took Murphy a whole night to write this message.
"Ladies and gentlemen, families, friends......" Murphy looked beyond the deck to the sea not far away, where some speedboats were cruising and knew they were paparazzi, so he added, "There are others." ā
Quite a few people looked back and could guess that the other people Murphy was talking about were journalists and paparazzi.
"Robert Downey Jr., my friend; Robert Downey Jr., my brother. When he offered to let me be the best man, I was confused because the groom asked for a best man and always looked for ......"
Murphy looked at where James Franco, Jonah Hill and Seth Rogen were standing, "Look for someone like them who is not as good as themselves as a best man, not a handsome guy like me." ā
Robert Downey Jr. looked down and laughed, Susan Levine covered her mouth, and a burst of laughter erupted on deck.
"This guy ......," Jonah Hill rolled his eyes, and James Franco whispered to Seth Rogen, "and he's learned a little humor from there." ā
Murphy made a downward gesture, and his laughter grew smaller.
"I'll admit that at first, I didn't realize that he was asking me to be the best man, and then when I understood. I told him that I was honored and pleasantly surprised, but I promised to do my best to complete the task. This task was more challenging and difficult for me than all the previous films. Also, thank you very much for the trust he placed in me, in a way, I was touched......"
"I met Downey in prison, we lived together, we fought together, we worked together, we made a friendship stronger than the Rocky Mountains, and I got to see a lot of Robert Downey Jr.'s talent."
Robert Downey Jr. looked at Murphy, what was this guy going to do? He didn't think he would praise himself vigorously.
"Downey is a man who loves art and has a great talent." Murphy said very seriously, "I still remember that when he was bored in prison, he used mud to pinch a lot of art works that were inappropriate for children, giving people who are living in a difficult life a great artistic ......."
Another burst of laughter rang out.
This kind of joke is used to liven up the atmosphere, and seeing that it is almost over, Murphy suddenly changed his tone.
"Donnie, you've come out of the darkness and found a good girl worthy of true love. Susan, Donnie is a little willful, a little venomous, but full of Akagi. But I don't want to congratulate you right now......"
This caused many people to be stunned, and Gal Gadot looked at Murphy and knew that he was playing tricks.
"Downey is one of my most important companions, not only in life but also in work." Murphy's eyes narrowed, "You know what? He told me that I would not work for at least half a year after I got married, but would concentrate on traveling the world with Susan, which annoyed me very much, and I lost a partner for a long time! ā
Robert Downey Sr., who was sitting in the front row, looked at Murphy with obvious gratitude in his eyes, if it weren't for this young director, where would his uncompetitive son turn over? I don't know how far it will go, but it was all this bastard luck to meet Murphy Stanton.
"I don't look for a helper on my journey, not out of emotional necessity or whim, but because of some good qualities in him."
Murphy's tone became more and more solemn, "I want to say that I used to be the most annoying, the rudeest, the most ignorant, the utter nuisance, and it would be a misfortune for anyone to meet me, and I despised virtue, ignored beauty, and did not understand happiness. So if I don't understand why I was called my best man, it's because I never thought I'd be anyone's best friend, and certainly never thought I'd be the bravest, smartest, most talented person I've ever had the privilege of knowing. ā
I don't know why, Gal Gadot felt that his eyes were starting to get wet, the suffering that Murphy Stanton had experienced before was just too much, and thanks to these friends, he was able to get through it.
"Donnie, I'm a ridiculous person. But saved by your passion and fidelity to friendship. Even though I'm a good friend of yours, I don't want to congratulate you. ā
He looked at Susan Levine, "But I want to congratulate you." Susan, you deserve this man, that's the highest compliment I can give. ā
Susan Levine nodded vigorously, looking very much in agreement with Murphy's words.
Murphy picked up the wine glass that had been placed here a long time ago, held it high, and said to all the guests, "Ladies and gentlemen, fill your glasses and stand up and toast together." Today is the start of the romantic journey of Susan Nicole Levine and Robert John Downey JR. ā
He drank the contents of the glass first, and when the guests on deck had finished, he added, "Susan, Downey, I have never been able to understand the fact that man has spent his whole life in pursuit of another human being. ā
Murphy looked at Gal Gadot, "I didn't understand how great this was until later. So, I wish you more joy in each other than all of us have given you! ā
"Thank you!" Murphy nodded slightly.
There was a round of applause on deck.
Knowing that he wasn't the protagonist of today, Murphy stepped aside and stood with James Franco, Jonah Hill and Seth Rogan.
"It's so touching!" Jonah Hill whispered, "It's so touching, if I didn't know you, I would have to suspect that you and Donnie are true love." ā
Flashing a middle finger directly in front of Jonah Hill, Murphy said, "If you don't speak, no one will treat you like a stone." ā
James Franco pulled Jonah Hill aside, leaned over and said to Murphy, "What a wonderful speech, it literally collapsed Downey into the best man in this world." Hey, let's discuss something, if I get married in the future, you must give a speech as the best man, just like today. ā
Seth Rogan whispered sarcastic, "Are you and Lily? She's about to become a big girl. ā
"I didn't ask you, Seth!" James Franco said viciously, "Shut up! ā
Murphy looked at the three guys, "You all shut up!" ā
While speaking, a friend of Susan Levine gave a brief speech as a bridesmaid, and after her speech, the ceremonial part of the wedding was completed.
Too lazy to deal with these three unreliable guys, Murphy simply left here and found Robert Downey Jr.
"Congratulations, Donnie."
He walked over, stretched out his hand and hugged Robert Downey Jr. hard, while whispering, "Ross can't come over, let me say congratulations to him." ā
Although he didn't have such a deep friendship with Murphy, Robert Downey Jr. was also quite familiar with Rose when he was in prison.
He nodded, "Rose called me last night. ā
With that said, Murphy looked at Robert Downey Jr., the guy finally looked right.
"Hey, Murphy."
Murphy turned his head at the voice of his voice, and Bill Rothes walked over quickly, leaned into his ear, and said, "Just got a call from Bantam Books Publishing that they and George Martin are willing to negotiate with us about the rights to adapt A Song of Ice and Fire. (To be continued.) )
