After being silent for a long time, the coffee in his hand had begun to cool, and Hugo broke the silence again, "You asked Leo to come to my room just now, right?" Although Leonardo did have a lot of ideas for acting to communicate with Hugo, he was never so discerning, and even if Joseph came in and urged, he still didn't leave.

Charlize tugged at the corners of her mouth, she knew that these things could not be hidden from Hugo. Many times, Hugo is too careful, so he will always make himself very hard, "Seeing your bitter and hateful expression today, we can't ignore it." Charlize's complaint made Hugo suddenly furious, "Hey, how can I have it!" My expression is well controlled! ”

Charlize turned her head to look at Hugo and chuckled, but the smile was outlined, and then it slowly retracted, she lowered her eyes, turned her head again, and looked at the "barren" garden outside, "I'm your friend, of course I can see if you're happy or not." After a pause, Charlize laughed again, "Even Leo can see it." ”

Hugo shook his head helplessly, then hung his head and looked at his own shadow on the ground, the flickering light in the hotel lobby spilling down, making his shadow overlap with the shadow next to him, as if two people were snuggling together. This made Hugo stunned, because at this time he and Charlize were separated by at least one seat, but why did the shadow look like this...... Intimacy?

"Are you arguing with her because of me?" Charlize was silent for a long time, and finally asked the question. When Hugo and Cameron were arguing just now, she heard the phrase, "You are different from her". After contacting the context, Charlize knew that it was her.

Hugo couldn't help but be stunned, raised his head to look at Charlize, but saw a trace of loneliness on that delicate face, "Maybe I should retreat to the position of a friend." ”

"But we're just friends." Hugo said urgently, but when he finished speaking, he couldn't help but look away, as if he wanted to avoid Charlize's eyes, and he himself didn't know why.

Charlize could feel Hugo's gaze, but she didn't turn her head, just tugged at the corners of her mouth lightly, "But Cameron doesn't think so." Originally, Charlize believed that there was a simple friendship between men and women, as between her and Alexander, as between her and Joseph, as ...... Between her and Hugo.

In fact, Charlize still thinks so now, and it is precisely because of her calmness that she can discuss this topic directly with Hugo without shying away from it, without deliberately avoiding suspicion. It's just that Charlize also knows that many times, she can't be willful, she can't make decisions for her friends, and she can't just care about her own feelings. For the sake of friends, this is what friends should do.

It's just that Charlize himself didn't notice the loss in his heart. Or, she noticed, but thought it was just a sense of loss because she needed to keep her distance from her best friend.

Charlize's words silenced Hugo, because it was clear that Charlize was telling the truth.

Charlize carefully suppressed his inner thoughts, and then turned his head to look at Hugo, "It's just that I think you should think about whether you and your girlfriend are suitable." It was her right as a friend, as if she didn't like Uma Thurman in the first place, and she never hid her thoughts.

Hugo sorted out his thoughts, seriously thought and recalled, "She is really good, she looks good, she has a good figure, and her personality is good...... but he finds that there is no way to sketch a clear image in his mind, as if everything is so blurry. This surprised Hugo, as he and Cameron had also been dating for two and a half years.

"So, she's just a 'nice' to you?" Charlize didn't hide the mockery in his smile, even if Hugo didn't look back, hearing the gentle snort, he could imagine Charlleze's expression at this time.

Hugo nodded his chin slightly, "Because it's good, I've been working hard and trying, at least I have a good impression of her......" But the words couldn't be coherent, Hugo thought he had cleared his mind, but now he found that his mind was still confused, "But I feel like I'm ......"

"Distorted love?" Charlize's taunt made Hugo smile wryly, but there was no way to refute it, just lowered his head in shame, "Or did you delay her time?" Or did you hurt her in a warm way? ”

Hugo couldn't refute every sentence, he could only bow his head and nod sullenly, but his heart was like a weed, and the wanton growth of branches and leaves made him unable to sort out a thought. "So what?" Charlize's voice came again, with a hint of mockery in the cooling aroma of coffee.

"So, I used to want to confess to her, or at least open up. But ......" Hugo's expression was obscure, but Charlize understood it at once, she knew that Hugo had no way to say it, even if he had been to Uma at the beginning, Hugo had never been able to do anything more excessive. This gentleman's etiquette is both a good and a bad for Hugo.

Charlize shrugged slightly, "You know, it's an even more terrible hurt to her." "It's not just today." It seems that all men are like this, always feel that they can stay in a love without real feelings, because it can be maintained by physical touch alone. Then, when you find the next target, you can quickly change it without any attachment. In the end, it is always the woman who is hurt. ”

After Charlize said this, even she was a little confused, because the turbulent memory made her unable to tell whether it was Cameron, or all the women, or ...... Herself.

"Of course not." Hugo panicked and quickly explained, "It's just that I missed the opportunity, and I was ...... When the Houston incident happened, she faced the terrible situation alone and tried her best to protect me from harm, but afterwards she completely collapsed, panicked like a child, and threw herself into my arms and cried. So, I had to hold her, comfort her, and ......"

When Hugo looked up, he saw Charlize's quiet eyes, which flashed with playfulness, as if mocking Hugo's excuse was too clumsy. But this is the case, the "Road to Glory" Houston concert, some fans gave Hugo. medicine, the result is that Cameron alone turned the tide, since Hugo missed that opportunity, there is no choice. Next, Hugo became Cameron's red carpet companion at the premiere of "Strange Men in Disguise".

Memories are surging like a tide, and Hugo doesn't know whether to convince Charlize or himself, "Actually, it's not that I don't like it, but it's not yet to the level of 'love', and there's still a long way to ......go."

"Are you kidding me? You're not picking the flavor of ice cream. Charlize's words made Hugo choke directly, with a confused face, but he didn't know how to express it at all, Charlize laughed loudly, "Then do you want me to hug you panicked little boy?" ”

As he spoke, Charlize opened his hands to Hugo, still with that teasing smile on his face.

Hugo was stunned, lowered his eyes to hide his eyes, gently pursed his lips, and finally shrugged his shoulders in confusion, "Yes." ”

This time, Charlize was counter-generalized, and he reluctantly put his hands down, "And then?" Can you try it with me too? After saying that, Charlize and Hugo's eyes came into contact, and both of them actually chuckled at the same time, and the smile on the corner of their lips broke into their hearts from the bottom of their eyes.

After laughing, the atmosphere settled. Charlize put the coffee cup aside, picked up the chocolate bar in Hugo's hand, tore the package little by little, and then couldn't help but take a small bite, just a small piece between his teeth, that cautious expression caused Hugo to be disgusted, and the disdainful gaze made Charlize a little embarrassed.

Charlize simply picked up the chocolate bar and ate it freely, "Maybe I should say that, as a friend, I want you to be happy." But...... Were you happy in your relationship with Cameron? Hugo opened his mouth, but was stopped by Charlize waving a chocolate bar, "Or are you really trying hard enough?" I'd rather be jealous of your happiness than be a stumbling block in your life. ”

"Like I'm jealous of you?" Hugo's teasing made Charlize laugh, looking at the smile on the corner of Charlize's mouth, Hugo's throat was a little dry, he picked up the coffee cup in his hand and took a sip, only to find that it was already empty, he had to cough lightly twice, hiding his emotions, "Charlize, why do you always dislike my girlfriend?" ”

Charlize raised an eyebrow, "You don't like Mr. Perfect either." "Mr. Perfect, this nickname is actually the greatest irony. The smile on the corner of Charlize's mouth was slightly retracted, "Probably because, during the time we 'lived together', we knew each other too well, so it was always clear at a glance that my friend was not happy." ”

After saying a word, Hugo and Charlize fell silent. Because, Hugo knows, Charlize has been changing himself for Mr. Perfect: Charlize never liked to use coasters, but was asked by Mr. Perfect to use them; Charlize prefers beer to wine, but Mr. Perfect is used to wine and whiskey; Mr. Perfect even asks Charlize to read books on ancient Greek mythology, just because these books give Charlize an idea of "how men perceive mythology......

That's not Charlize.

These details of life, Hugo saw in his eyes; In the same way, Charlize is also clear, about Hugo's dreams, about Hugo's persistence, about Cameron's choice, about Cameron's wishes......

"That's why you have to be happier, so happy that I am jealous." Hugo turned his head to look at Charlize and said with a smile, the mixed emotions under his eyes were well hidden, and he deliberately made an exaggerated and greasy expression. Charlize directly gave Hugo a roll of the eye and punched Hugo hard in the shoulder, making Hugo wail directly.

This sound broke the silence of the hotel lobby, and everyone looked at it in an instant. Hugo quickly stood up and waved his hand to apologize to everyone, but after sitting down, he and Charlize had to hold their stomachs and laugh when their eyes met, completely happy.
