Reply? How does this make people answer?

may be a special upbringing since childhood, plus the living environment after marriage is not the kind that can make people lose their temper at will, Jenny is not a very emotional person, in fact, her self-control and surface skills have always been quite strong, it can be said that most of the time, she will consider the other party's possible reaction before she says a word, and rarely blurt out without thinking. But at this moment, Chris brought a somewhat defiant attitude but it was like a torch, igniting a raging anger in her heart - of course she knew that Chris would definitely expect an answer after asking the question, but the question was here, and it was normal for him to want to answer, but couldn't he say it well? What does she owe him? Where did he get the confidence to speak with such a sense of superiority?

"Answer?" She asked rhetorically, putting down her knife and fork, "Give me a few days?" God, Chris, you sound like a debt-asking thug, is there a debt between us? ”

Chris rubbed the bridge of his nose, then spread his hands out in a soothing gesture, "OK, OK, I understand." ”

Although he said soothing words, his expression was not softening in any way, but seemed to be brewing a larger outburst, Jenny's anger was provoked even more, she pushed the plate aside, "What do you understand?" Mind inspiring me with your superior wisdom? ”

The conversation between the two people is going on here, a quarrel is inevitable, this is the first time since they have been dating, after all, because the two get together less and leave more, they can't afford the cost of quarreling, like this The occasion when both parties are more emotional has not appeared before. Instinctively, Jenny adopts an aggressive attitude, and she is disgusted by Chris's condescending, as if he has taken the lead.

"What do I understand?" Chris raised his voice, too, and he looked gloomy and resentful, as if there were many emotions and grievances that had been buried for a long time - in short, as if he had accumulated a deep grudge, and now he could not bear it anymore, and was ready to vent it all at once, but on the basis of his own demeanor and politeness, he still restrained himself vigorously, and did not lose his temper too much in front of her. "Are you sure you want to start this topic? What did I understand? ugh――”

His emotions seemed to have a small burst suddenly, Chris picked up the knife and threw it on the ground, and said in a fierce tone, "I really don't know how you can ask, is it so difficult to be an adult?" Admit it, Jenny - you've never thought about it, you haven't thought about it once in the last three months, and you're so afraid to bring it up that it's ridiculous that you run away from it! Why didn't you just complain about my early departure? You should want it, I can see you want to, but you couldn't help but say, why? Tell me why? ”

In front of his endless venting, Jenny seemed a little lacking in momentum, and Chris's words did hit her soft underbelly, she couldn't organize an effective counterattack for a while, so she could only let Chris continue to vent her dissatisfaction in her heart, "Because you don't want to give me a chance at all, do you?" You don't want to cut your hours at all, so you don't dare complain about the less time we spend together-ohgod, you're so immature and selfish in this matter, I don't know how long you're trying to escape-"

"Immature?" If she had just returned to 2001, she might have gone blank in the brain for Chris's imposing accusations, and she didn't know how to answer them, but after all these years of getting along with Cesare, as well as his continuous training and exercise, Jenny was already very familiar with this kind of highly confrontational scene, and she instinctively wanted to fight for dominance of the scene, and forcefully interrupted Chris, "Selfish? I'm sorry, Chris, anyone can say that about me, but you can't- do you think you're doing it any better? ”

She warnly stopped Chris's reply and continued sharply, "Your statement is simply too typical of emotional manipulation, you ask me a question, a big question related to my career, my life, and then expect me to answer you in a short period of three months, and if I don't answer, all of a sudden I am a sinner?" What are you going to do next, do you feel guilty about your kindness and dedication to me? It's a free relationship, read my lips, Chris, I'm free! You ask a question, I can answer you or not, I don't know where you got the confidence to think that I hurt you. Why don't you think about yourself? What keeps me avoiding conversations that evoke this topic? It's you! ”

She felt an uncontrollable burst of anger that made her want to tear something up to vent, Jenny resisted the urge to learn from Chris to throw something on the ground, and continued to say coldly, "Yes, I admit, in the past few months, our contact has been stiff, we are all smiling on the phone, barely maintaining a semblance of calm, my work is already very tired, almost 24 hours without a break, and the call with you does not make me relax at all, but makes me constantly feel stressed. Where do you think all this pressure comes from? It's you! I can feel your anticipation, your impatience, I can feel you staring at me all the time and hoping I would answer you 'yes', you can't even accept 'no' or 'I need to think again', you will always be so pushy, every step of our relationship! - Chris, I feel like you think that if I answer 'no', then I just don't know what to do! ”

"And that's because I sense that you are very repulsive to the idea!" Chris shouted, he stood up, and walked frantically around the furry carpet, "God, I can't believe we're having a conversation like this, it's so contrived that most daytime soap operas would be embarrassed - but, yes! I don't want to accept the 'no' answer because what I'm proposing is a very fair proposition, and if you love me - if you really want something from this relationship, then why would you say no? And that's what we're talking about, feelings! ”

He pushed the table away, leaving nothing between the two of them, almost furious and frustrated—as if admitting it hurt his self-esteem—and said, "That's how I feel, Jenny, we've been together—I don't know, a year and a half?" Two years? It's been over a year since it became a closed relationship, but I've never felt like you love me! ”

For people who are usually in contact with tens of millions of dollars in business, high-tech shooting technology, scripts and acting skills, the word love seems fresh and weird, and it seems to spoil the atmosphere a little, even Chris, after finishing speaking, was stunned for a moment, his momentum weakened, and his handsome face no longer had an angry face, but looked depressed and sad, "You have changed me, Jenny, you have completely and completely changed me." For the past two years, I've been drawn to you like a moth to a fire, and the changes I've made for you have been almost completely changed to fit you, but what do you know? ”

Chris shook his head, "It still doesn't make me feel safe, it just makes me feel very pathetic." All the changes I've made are just to keep from being abandoned by you - I don't feel your love, care, dependence on you in our relationship, I don't feel anything from you, nothing but some frivolous affection, you're so-"

He lowered his head and rubbed his face, adjusting his mood, Jenny saw that his eyes were red - this kind of emotional outpouring would have made people feel a little embarrassed, but Chris's performance was so sincere that there was no trace of unnaturalness, "It's like falling in love with a robot, an ice sculpture, all the responses you give me are reasonable, everyone says I found a good girlfriend, I found a suitable person to settle down, but I just can't feel the emotion from your response, Jenny, That's what we're talking about, feelings. ”

"I'm ......," Jenny said, her ears still ringing a little, and maybe Chris wouldn't have been so overwhelmed if she had been tough and angry, but now that he's starting to show weakness, she's a little overwhelmed. Why do you think that? If I don't like you, I don't—uh—love you. ”

She said the unfamiliar word a little awkwardly, "Then why am I with you?" It's a free world, Chris, we're together as a result of mutual choice, why are you so unconfident in yourself? ”

"I don't know," said Chris, who seemed irritated by Jenny's attitude, and his tone hardened again, "No, I don't believe it—I need to prove it." ”

"I don't need to prove anything to anyone," Jenny's shoulders tensed defensively again, but when she saw Chris's reddened eyes, she suddenly relented and lowered her shelf again, "What do you want me to prove?" Promise you to start planning our future and settle down with you? ”

Chris wordlessly raised an eyebrow and looked at her silently, Jenny sighed, "It's not that I don't want to agree, I just didn't think about it - well, I just don't want to agree, but that doesn't mean I don't have feelings for you, Chris, it's just ......"

She looked for a reason, a little flustered, "It's just that maybe I'm not old enough to settle down, maybe like you before, I didn't think I'd start a family." And it's not that simple, your request will limit my range of films, and there are fewer and fewer films being shot in Los Angeles right now—"

She returned to her familiar territory, as if grasping at a life-saving straw, Jenny did not think about this matter systematically before this, but this reason is indeed very pragmatic, "Especially big productions, almost all of them are filmed in other states, I don't look like you, mainly low-budget literary films, the shooting time is not long, even if you stay in Los Angeles, it is easy to cover the cost, I shoot all big productions with a long cycle, Chris, it is not difficult for you to abide by this agreement, it is more beneficial to you-"

"You mean, the reason you don't want to say yes is because," Chris said, already expressionless, cut off Jenny's statement, "and you think that this agreement is more in my favor and very bad for you." ”

Jenny felt a little inappropriate, but she didn't deny it, although she was still not sure if she could accept the future of marrying Chris and having children, but at least for now, the reason why she couldn't agree to this was true, according to this agreement, the same itinerary as '07 and '08 was completely unacceptable, and it was an unacceptable waste of time for her.

"You can think of it that way." She nodded, folded her arms defensively, and added, "And that's exactly what happened." ”

"Allow me to reason." "The reason why you've been avoiding this topic is because you think that the smooth development of your career is more important than our relationship—not that you want to give up the company, not that you want to return to your family, no, that it may cause a little bit of damage to your career—that this is just a little bit more important than our future, the time we spend together, and the possibility of building a family." ”

His tone became more and more sarcastic, and this made Jenny uncomfortable, and she raised her chin and didn't continue to deny or explain anything, "If you want to think so, you can - and it is, you can stay in Los Angeles and you can continue to make films and win awards, but for me-"

“shutup！” Chris roared, his voice beyond the decibel level of normal communication and into a roar, and Jenny winced in discomfort and narrowed her eyes again, fending off the ensuing loud bang - Chris flipped over the table. “shutup，shutup，justshutyoufugmouthup！”

His expression can only be described as furious, still maintaining the posture of overturning the table, his chest rises and falls violently, and he has a fork in his hand, which looks almost comical, but Jenny certainly does not find it funny, in fact, she does not feel sad or afraid, her stress response has surpassed these emotions - Chris seems to have lost his mind in anger, and he is a man over six feet tall, with a habit of regular fitness, and at such times, the survival instinct prevails, The mood of self-preservation has overwhelmed everything.

She closed her mouth, first looked in a few directions where she could escape, and then glanced at her phone, Jenny snatched it and held it tightly, this thing did give her a strong sense of security, but what made her breathe a sigh of relief, Chris quickly calmed down, he exhaled, his shoulders gradually relaxed, his clenched fists slowly relaxed, and most importantly, his eyes changed.

It's hard to describe his eyes specifically, Chris has been in love with many actresses on the screen, life and death, he has acted in romantic scenes, and he has also shown his heartbreak, but all these expressions can't be compared with his current eyes, he keeps shaking his head, as if he just woke up from a dream, "you're unbelievable, seriously, you, are, unbelievable." ”

Chris began to back away - as he stepped back to the bed, he picked up his phone, interrupted eye contact with Jenny, turned and strode to the door.

Jenny stood there looking at his back, and she suddenly felt a strong pang of regret, and she shouted, "Chris! ”

Chris paused in the doorway, his hand clenching at the wooden door, but letting go again, and when he spoke, his tone was one of suppressed lightness.

"When the media gets the news, I know what they're going to say." He turned his head against the wooden door, gritted his teeth and laughed, "They will say that I hurt you, I played with you, I was the bad boy who provoked a good girl, I coveted beauty, I played on the spot, I didn't think about taking responsibility at all, typical Chris, I was the bastard, you were the poor girl who gave your heart but was miserably toyed with, it was me who cynically hurt the sweetheart of all America, the living American dream." ”

Chris pushed the door open, his eyes cold, "But I know who's the villain in this relationship, J.J., and I, I know, who is that heartless bastard." ”

Jenny watched him walk out of the room, as he slammed the door shut, and she even winced at the expected loud noise, but ironically, the door of the hotel was carefully maintained, and the lock flicked softly and silently into the door frame without making a sound.
