Chapter 264 Scottish Wedding

In the hot drink shop, Keira Knightley scoops up a coffee milkshake with a delicate little silver spoon, puts it in her mouth and tastes it, and finally smacks her lips.

"No more acting"

Lin Mingyang stirred the iced juice in front of him with a straw, and his face was sad: "You don't even plan to give me the last chance?" ”

"Last chance?" Knightley's beautiful big eyes blinked vigorously, and a mischievous smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "I don't think Disney will stop after filming this one, they will definitely make more sequels, do I want to play this role in it until I am too old to play it?" ”

Lin Mingyang raised a very mysterious statement: "Don't you think 3 is a very wonderful number? Many classic Hollywood movies end with a trilogy, and many directors and actors believe in this. ”

Knightley's expression remained unchanged, frowning and saying, "Hollywood now only believes in money"

Lin Mingyang learned from Brookheimer that Disney invested as much as $180 million in the budget for the filming of "Pirates of the Caribbean 3", of which the salary allocated to several main actors was a large amount, and Keira Knightley's refusal to star was definitely not because of money.

"Is your schedule over?"

Knightley shook her head, "I haven't had a schedule lately, and I'm getting ready to go on a trip." ”

Lin Mingyang spared no effort to instigate and said: "The Caribbean is a tourist mecca, we can travel while filming."

Knightley's eyes suddenly became a little misty when she heard the word "we", she remembered that dark night, Lin Mingyang stuffed the life jacket into her hand, and then jumped into the sea, thinking that it should have been a long time ago, but to this day, the plot at that time is still vivid.

A hand that kept shaking in front of him pulled Knightley's thoughts back to reality, Lin Mingyang withdrew his hand, but he kept wondering in his heart, is this topic so unattractive, and the other party was distracted after just a few words.

"Where did we just go?" Knightley asked heartlessly.

"You said we're going to the Caribbean together." Lin Mingyang went up the wall along the pole and directly said the long-planned idea.

Knightley took a sip at him, her cheeks a little crimson, "you big-headed ghost"

After joking, Lin Mingyang's expression became serious: "Mr. Bruckheimer has helped me a lot, and MGM is also working with Disney now, so I have to act in this film." ”

Knightley remained unmoved: "This is your problem, what does it have to do with me?" ”

Lin Mingyang's expression was serious, but what he said was not so reliable. "Acting is the same as work, it is very important to choose your own partner, Lin's Will only loves Keira Knightley's Elizabeth all his life, whether it is in or out of the play, I am a dedicated man, I am so happy to work with you, if I change someone else, it will definitely affect my performance."

"I think as long as it's a beautiful woman, you'll be dedicated to them, especially the kind of S girl with big hips..."

"So this role belongs to you, and it's not easy to find an actress with a temperament and connotation like you in Hollywood." Lin Mingyang teasingly squeezed his eyes at Knightley, and then muttered in a low voice: "Especially a flat-chested actress below the C cup, it's almost impossible"

Knightley glared at him viciously, "Then you're going to find those brainless people to act" After saying that, she reached out and grabbed her bag angrily, and got up to leave.

Lin Mingyang's eyes were quick and he grabbed her.

Although the two are a glue-like couple in "Pirates of the Caribbean", it is acting after all, such an intimate act in reality made Knightley's face red, she shook it twice, but she couldn't break free, and finally threw the handbag on the seat in anger, and sat down again with a face full of shame.

"I don't understand, you know such a woman in Hollywood, you can find any one who can be qualified for this role, why do you drag me to it?"

"If I chose one of the most memorable scenes in Pirates of the Caribbean, I think I would choose to change the camera at the moment when a little girl suddenly woke up from a nightmare, one eye open, beautiful and frightened, like the ocean in a turbulent night, the wind and thunder rolling, the junction of the black pressure on the sky and the sea, like a looming clear light, flashing like a flame or starlight, maybe you are not the best, but there is no substitute."

Lin Mingyang shrugged, the classical temperament of Keira Knightley gave her performance a different feeling, and changed to other actors, the beauty is beautiful, but it is difficult to find such a feeling, which is why Bruckheimer proposed to let Kate replace Knightley, Lin Mingyang did not agree.

Kate's intellectual elegance is more suitable for playing a modern woman, not to mention being as proud as her, this kind of role will definitely not be accepted.

"Do you think I'm really that important in this play?" Knightley looked at Lin Mingyang with some tears and laughter.

"Whether or not Pirates of the Caribbean will continue to have a sequel, this is my last appearance, and I sincerely implore you to accompany me on this final journey."

Knightley looked at Lin Mingyang without blinking, "Are you serious?" ”

Lin Mingyang nodded with a serious expression.

Knightley finally relented, "Then you have to promise me something"

"No problem" Lin Mingyang, who was overjoyed, subconsciously agreed.

Knightley glanced at Lin Mingyang quirkily, "You don't think about it, what if I want you to marry me?" ”

Lin Mingyang was embarrassed there all of a sudden, Knightley covered her mouth, her eyes smiled into a beautiful crescent, "I'll give you a chance to regret it"

Lin Mingyang raised his head and looked at her with a frank gaze, "No need, I promise you"

Knightley nodded in satisfaction, "Okay, you and I go to a wedding in two days."

Lin Mingyang was stunned, "It won't be to be the best man, right?" ”

"How do you know?" Knightley clapped her hands happily, "My brother is married, I will be the bridesmaid, and you will be the best man"

Lin Mingyang always felt that there was a hint of weirdness in Knightley's sweet smile, and he asked cautiously, "Is it just to be the best man?" ”

"If you don't want to, forget it," Knightley grabbed her bag and prepared to leave.

This killer move really worked, and Lin Mingyang immediately raised his hand and surrendered: "OK, can't I promise?" ”

"The wedding was semi-public, and there might be reporters present."

Lin Mingyang patted his chest with confidence, "As long as it doesn't look like a press conference, I can still handle the general scene." ”

――――

Knightley's brother Caleb's wedding took place in Middlesex, England's Old Shire, on the banks of the River Thames, where Knightley's hometown of London incorporated part of the Old County into its borders, making it a county of London.

Since starring in Pride and Prejudice, Knightley has become a British superstar, and her brother's wedding has naturally attracted some media attention. Lin Mingyang served as the best man of Knightley's brother as a friend, and this information was kept secret in advance. Because they couldn't get into the wedding scene, many media outlets only sent photojournalists, and all they needed was photos of Knightley as a bridesmaid, which was also part of the celebrity gossip news.

In order to attend this wedding, Lin Mingyang brought a dress from the United States. His modern Scottish wedding was much the same as an American wedding, but on the day of the wedding he found that he didn't need the clothes he had prepared. To serve as the best man, he must wear a traditional Scottish skirt, knee-high white socks and small black leather boots.

The whole set of Scottish tartan sewn highland traditional clothing is specially sewn according to Lin Mingyang's figure, and it fits very well on the body, but this unique skirt still makes Lin Mingyang feel very awkward when worn on the body. He now finally understands why Knightley emphasized the media at that time, as early as that time she began to wait to see Lin Mingyang "make jokes".

Sitting in the limousine to the wedding site, Lin Mingyang's face was not very good-looking, except for his "weird" outfit, Knightley's brother and another best man always looked at him secretly with their eyes, which made him very uncomfortable.

On the contrary, the mood of the two sitting beside him is enough to be described as turbulent, Knightley's brother Caleb never dreamed that it would be Lin Mingyang who served as his wedding best man. At that time, Knightley told him that he was a good friend, but when he found out that the person who came was actually the chairman of MGM, Hollywood was famous because of his excitement, and his body had been trembling slightly in a state of excitement when he met and shook hands.

The other best man is Caleb's hair is small, he is even more excessive than Caleb, after getting in the car, his eyes have been staring at Lin Mingyang without moving away, looking at his fanatical expression, if it weren't for the fact that there is a Caleb in the middle, he doesn't know what excitement he will be.

In order to break this embarrassing situation, Lin Mingyang coughed lightly.

"How long will it take us to get to church?"

As soon as Caleb was about to speak, the best man next to him preemptively said, "There are still ten minutes to go." ”

Lin Mingyang nodded at him, and then looked at the groom Caleb, "I think your bride must be very beautiful."

Not just because of the excitement but also the excitement, Caleb looked slightly red at this time, and his cheeks were shining. He nodded vigorously, "Kerry is the most beautiful goddess in my mind, we have been dating for 6 years, and we got engaged last year... I've been waiting for this moment today for a long time."

"Come on, at yesterday's farewell bachelors party, you still cried to us with a copy of Playboy, and you have to be sneaky to read this magazine after you get married, why did you suddenly change your tone today?" Caleb's companion had all the trouble he had done.

Lin Mingyang smiled slightly: "Let all married men read this magazine at home openly, this is the goal that Playboy magazine has been working towards." ”

Everyone else in the car laughed, and both sides found restraint, and the atmosphere in the carriage suddenly became lively. From the conversation, Lin Mingyang learned a lot about the interesting customs of Scottish weddings. For example, at a wedding, the groom is expected to wear a fur bag and a double-edged dagger. Brides often wear white or cream wedding dresses with a bouquet of heather flowers in the buttonhole to indicate luck. The bagpiper welcomes the guests with a melodious back cover music, and then blows the bagpipes to invite the bride and her father to the wedding ceremony. In the evening, people can party to their heart's content, and it doesn't end until the wedding march is played. Caleb's wedding is not that complicated, but it also takes more than 2 hours to go before and after.

When the groom's limousine arrived at the church, relatives and friends who were watching the ceremony had already arrived, and a group of reporters were standing in the distance. Even though it was Caleb's wedding, most of the reporters came for Knightley. Seeing that it was the groom's courtesy car, most of them put down their cameras.

Lin Mingyang was the last to get out of the car, his tall figure did not attract the attention of reporters at first, and when a bored reporter swept through the crowd with a camera through a telephoto lens, the face that made him extremely familiar clearly appeared in the lens.

"Oh my God"

The reporter's exclamation aroused the curiosity of the peers around him, and some people even joked: "Jimmy, have you found a beautiful woman?" ”

Jimmy didn't pay attention to his peers around him, he held his camera to the other end and began to press the shutter wildly, and at this time, someone with sharp eyes finally found Lin Mingyang standing in the crowd in traditional Scottish clothes.

"Oh my God, is that Lin?" The reporter rubbed his eyes vigorously, "Why is he here?" ”

The other reporters reacted, they held up the camera and looked over, and easily confirmed the identity of the tall best man, the chairman of MGM Pictures, the "playboy" who stirred up the Hollywood entertainment industry, actually appeared at the door of the church as the best man, the bride and groom of today's wedding are not famous figures, anyone with a little brain can guess that this matter must be related to Keira Knightley.

This kind of private wedding, only the bride and groom's relatives and friends are invited, Lin Mingyang went to the UK to serve as the best man for the wedding, and also wore traditional Scottish clothes, the groom Caleb must not have such a big face. Knightley, who was supposed to be the "protagonist" today, has not yet appeared, and all kinds of speculations about her relationship with Lin Mingyang have been in the minds of reporters, no matter what identity Lin Mingyang appears here, this is an explosive news.

Knightley's parents are also actors, and it is not surprising that a reporter appeared on the periphery of their son's wedding scene, although the two elders are not very famous in the entertainment industry, but after all, they have a daughter who is the busiest and most talked about among actresses in Britain and even Hollywood, and it is normal for this wedding to attract media attention.

But something abnormal happened, their daughter had not yet appeared in the bride's car, and the reporters on the other end had already set up the "cannon barrel" and were busy.

"Will, don't look for it, that group of reporters is filming the tall best man next to Caleb." Knightley's mother, Sharman, a playwright, stabbed her husband in the hand while he was looking around in the crowd, and then slammed Nunu in the face of the church.

"That's a friend of Kayla's, and she told me about it." Knightley's father, Will, touched his beard, and he suddenly thought of a possibility, "You said that person was also in the circle?" ”

"The man's back looks familiar... It's hard to say that we all know each other," Sharman looked at Lin Mingyang's back, trying to find information about each other in his mind.

"Kayla's arrogant temper, you don't know it, there are few male stars in the circle that she can look at, she hasn't mentioned to us any male friends in the circle before, she brought such a person at Caleb's wedding, do you think it will..."

"Quick, he's turning his head" Sharman tugged at her husband's sleeve, and Will looked up, finally getting a clear view of the mysterious groomsman's face.

Will was stunned for a moment, how could it be him"

Sharman clasped his hands and looked a little excited: "I finally know why those reporters are taking pictures like crazy like taking the wrong medicine, if it weren't for those damn scandals, to be honest, I like him a lot, Kayla should have known him when he was filming "Pirates of the Caribbean"

"Let's go up and talk to him, maybe we'll find something out of him..."

Before Will could finish speaking, his wife Shaman's feet couldn't wait to take a step, "That's what I mean"

――――

When the reporter on the other end raised the camera, Lin Mingyang already knew that his identity was exposed, he had just refused an interview with a reporter who pretended to be a relative or friend and sneaked into the wedding scene, and suddenly someone patted him on the shoulder, and turned around to see that it was a Scottish-style bright red dress... Old woman.

"Hello, I'm Knightley's mother, and this is my husband Will" The old woman frightened Lin Mingyang as soon as she spoke, and he looked at it confidently, the face of the old couple standing in front of him was indeed very similar to Knightley.

"Hello, madam" Seeing these two, Lin Mingyang really didn't know what to say, so he could only smile at them politely.

"I've seen a lot of movies you've made, and if it weren't for Kayla, I wouldn't have been able to help but ask you for an autograph" Sharman turned his curious gaze on Lin Mingyang, making Lin Mingyang very embarrassed.

At this time, Will patted Lin Mingyang on the shoulder: "Young man, thank you very much for coming to my son's wedding and being his best man, it is estimated that our prince did not have this treatment when he got married... It was Kayla's idea."

The smile on the corner of Lin Mingyang's mouth was humble and polite, "Kayla and I are good friends, and I feel honored to be able to attend such a traditional Scottish wedding. ”

After a brief greeting, Knightley's mother, Sharman, began to pull Lin Mingyang to ask long and short questions, and Knightley's father interjected a sentence or two from time to time. This is just a courtesy mutual understanding, but in the eyes of reporters, it turned into an intimate conversation between Knightley's parents and Lin Mingyang, which more and more confirmed their conjecture about the "special" relationship between Lin Mingyang and Keira Knightley.

Keira Knightley wore a flowing purple bridesmaid gown with bows on her shoulders and waist, layers of tulle, black high heels, and a small bouquet of green, white, and red flowers to accompany the bride to the wedding venue.

The reporters who were still capturing Lin Mingyang in the crowd immediately turned their cameras and shot wildly at Keira Knightley, who had just gotten out of the car. Facing the reporter's camera, Knightley cleverly pulled up her future sister-in-law and obediently played a "supporting role" beside her, and the helpless reporters could only include the bride in the frame, and acted as a photographer for them for free.

Before the official start of the wedding, the families and relatives of both parties took a group photo in front of the church. Most of the relatives and friends who attended the wedding had already recognized Lin Mingyang's identity. The older generations are still relatively calm, and after the family photo is over, the young people immediately took the photographer to Lin Mingyang to ask for a group photo, and some bold girls even affectionately held Lin Mingyang's arm and posed in various funny poses. It is conceivable that these photos will become a good conversation point between them and their partners in the circle for some time to come.

To the disappointment of the reporters, Keira Knightley did not participate in the rush to take photos with Lin Mingyang, she just stood quietly and watched, with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth.

Lin Mingyang, who was afraid of leaving a noisy impression, learned from Knightley, and when he took a group photo, he pulled Knightley's brother Caleb, so that the group photo became a group photo of everyone and the groom, which not only took care of the feelings of the wedding protagonist, but also did not arouse everyone's interest.

Lin Mingyang's approach was seen by Knightley's parents, and their evaluation of him couldn't help but go up a notch. As everyone knows, so many people have to take photos with themselves, and Lin Mingyang was already complaining in his heart at this time.

Probably because his fame was too loud, seeing so many sisters taking photos with Lin Mingyang, the bride was also a little moved, but she was embarrassed to run over alone, so she had to pull Keira Knightley over with her.

The groom Caleb walked to the side very wisely, he couldn't stand with his fiancée in a wedding dress before the wedding, and Lin Mingyang, as the best man, was less restrained, she looked at Lin Mingyang politely and slightly shyly, sir, can I take a photo with you? ”

"It's a great honor"

After he nodded, the bride pulled Keira Knightley forward, Lin Mingyang and Knightley looked at each other, there was media at the scene, and both sides only bowed slightly.

The reporters who had already been looking through the autumn water over there had finally praised the New Year countless times at this time, if it weren't for him, Lin Mingyang and Keira Knightley would never have stood together in front of everyone, they set up their lenses, and they were waiting to take this heavyweight photo.

With the groomsmen on the left and the bridesmaids on the right, the bride in the middle held their hands and snapped this photo that was destined to make headlines in major entertainment newspapers the next day.
