2088.Chapter 2088 2088 The Easter of the Lord
Hugo skillfully parked the car in the parking space, turned off the engine, pulled out the key and left the car. But after walking out a few steps, he trotted back quickly, opened the door, took out an acoustic guitar from the back seat, and then strode forward.
You can already see the joyful atmosphere of the scene from afar, the children are dressed up and shuttled in the sight, many children are dressed as rabbits, and they are carrying a delicate and small bamboo basket in their hands, which looks like little rabbits picking mushrooms in the forest. Three nearby neighborhoods are also dressed up in the shape of a forest, the courtyards of each house are decorated with various ribbons and animal models, and several large trees on the side of the street are decorated with colorful lights, as if they are the scene of a carnival.
The fiery breath wafting in the air blew along the breeze, making the footsteps involuntarily lighter.
"Papapa......" A series of cheerful fragmented footsteps came from far and near, and Hugo saw a group of children of four or five years old rushing towards him, and he couldn't avoid dodging left and right, and finally could only stand stiffly in place, lest his rash actions would directly hit these children.
But this group of little tricksters didn't look at the scene in front of them at all, they just buried their heads and ran wildly, and accidentally bumped into Hugo's calf, making Hugo's center of gravity unstable, but he didn't dare to retreat, lest the child be injured, so he could only retreat half a step back with his right leg to support himself and avoid falling. But the group of children in front of him, one after another, were like strings of sugar gourds, one, two, three, collided one after another, making it very difficult for Hugo to stand in place.
"Be careful, be careful!" Hugo had to make a reminder, which made the children stop one after another, and then raised their heads to look at the "giant" in front of them, and the hot gaze projected over made Hugo stunned, and then showed a stiff smile, showing a mouthful of neat and white teeth, "Hey, children, good afternoon." β
Hugo has always gotten along well with children, and he always has an affinity among children. But today this affinity does not seem to work, a child hit Hugo's calf, did not stand firm, shook twice, and finally sat on the ground with a buttocks, the small bamboo basket in his hand also fell to the ground, two Easter eggs rolled out, everyone's eyes were focused on the eggs, and finally saw the eggs rolled into the grass like this, no longer visible, and then the little boy began to cry.
Hugo's eyes widened suddenly, what was going on. Before Hugo could bend down to comfort the little boy, a girl with pigtails next to him pointed at Hugo and shouted, "He made Adam cry!" He's a bad guy! β
Hugo hurriedly raised his hands, "Hey, no, I'm ...... It's not ......" Hugo tried to explain, but found that the children around him swarmed up, didn't listen to his explanation at all, and then waved his small fist at Hugo's thigh, which made Hugo suddenly feel pain, and couldn't help but grit his teeth and try to dodge.
But before Hugo had time to dodge, a child grabbed the strap of the guitar in his hand, and then pulled it down hard, which made Hugo startled, and immediately raised the guitar, raised his hands high above his head, and made a gesture of surrender, which was not embarrassed. But the children still refused to let him go, and still waved their fists at him, and Hugo's whole face wrinkled, but he couldn't cry out in painβbut the problem was that the strength of this small group was far greater than expected, and it really hurt.
Hugo deeply felt that he must not have watched the lunar calendar today, how could he meet a group of little demons and surround him.
Seeing that Hugo was about to be overwhelmed, a voice came from the distance, "Jenny, Adam, Nick, Nicky...... What the hell are you doing? β
Hugo followed the voice, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and shouted anxiously, "Jessica, help, come and help." β
Jessica Hansen, who was standing in front of her, stopped and glanced at Hugo's embarrassed appearance, her handsome cheeks were wrinkled, and her teeth were bared, but she didn't dare to move at all, lest she hurt the children around her. It was as if the Hulk was cautiously moving away, as if with a little exertion, those lives were as fragile as ants. This scene really made people laugh, Jessica didn't hold back, and burst out laughing.
This made Hugo helpless, funny and anxious, but he had no choice but to stand there and grind his teeth fiercely.
Jessica quickly restrained her smile and shouted at the mischievous children, "Attention, everyone, this is what I told you about 'Mr. Hugo'." What should you say when you see him? β
The children were stunned, and then shouted unevenly, high and low, "Good afternoon, Mr. Hugo!" The childish voice was so cute that it made Hugo's mouth smile wide, but he frowned slightly and cast an inquiring glance at Jessica: he obviously didn't know what was going on.
Without waiting for Jessica to answer, the little girl who beckoned everyone to beat Hugo, puffed out her cheeks with a questioning expression, and shouted, "Is he Mr. Hugo?" Why doesn't he have rabbit ears and no tail! As she spoke, the little girl ran up behind Hugo, as if trying to tear off his pants to find out.
Hugo suddenly panicked, grabbed the little girl's arm, picked her up suddenly, and at the same time put the guitar behind him with his right hand to prevent the guitar from hitting her, and then bared his teeth and said viciously, "Don't you know that you must never mess with the Easter Bunny?" Otherwise, I'll eat all your eggs! β
The little girl looked at Hugo in a daze, as if she was frightened, which made Hugo a little stunned - could it be that he had lost his magic today? The children don't eat him anymore?
But just when Hugo was about to comfort him, the little girl raised her hand and gently poked the tip of Hugo's nose, and then giggled, "You lie, the Easter bunny won't eat so many eggs." This made Hugo block his chest in one breath, and he was embarrassed and didn't know how to answer.
Jessica came over to help with the siege, picked up the little girl, and said with a smile, "Jenny, I just saw Arthur coming." β
The little girl's eyes immediately widened, and then she covered her cheeks with her chubby hands, "No, no, I'm a little lady, I'm a well-behaved little lady." Then he covered his eyes with his palms and cried out one by one, "Good afternoon, Monsieur Hugo!" Am I a little lady, you say? β
Arthur? Hugo didn't understand, but when he saw Jessica giving him a look, he immediately understood, and said with a smile, "Yes, you are a little lady." I think Arthur would agree with me. β
The little lady opened her eyes, looked at Hugo seriously, her cheeks suddenly became pink, she broke free from Jessica's arms, and trotted away. Looking at the back of the little girl leaving, Hugo couldn't help but laugh. Immediately after that, the other children around them also swarmed away from the other places.
The little boy who had just fallen to the ground looked around, and found that he had been left alone, and he also supported the ground with both hands, raised his buttocks high, and then stood up, twisting and twisting like a duckling and chasing after him. Hugo couldn't hold back any longer and laughed.
Jessica retracted her gaze after making sure that the children were back in the care of others, "I told Robin just now that it would take you half an hour to arrive, I didn't expect it to be so fast." β
The corners of Hugo's mouth still had a smile that did not disappear, "There is not so much traffic jam on the road, a little faster than expected." How's it going, is everything going well now? β
Jessica nodded, "It's going well, Fordkin, Neil, they came over early in the morning, and now Leo and Charlize are singing nursery rhymes with the children." β
Hugo frowned, with an incredible expression, Jessica thought about Leonardo and Charlize's "earth-shattering" singing, and immediately understood the meaning of Hugo's expression, and laughed after a while, and then gave a serious affirmation, "I'm not wrong, they are singing." β
Hugo patted his forehead and frowned, "Are you sure it's not the scene of the car accident?" This made Jessica laugh, and Hugo put the guitar back on his back, "Let's go and see, I've known them for so long, and they've never sung in public, I'm curious." β
Then Hugo and Jessica walked side by side.
Today is the Easter party organized by the Sally Foundation, which has now become the largest children's funding foundation on the West Coast of the United States, even surpassing the Grayson Gift Foundation. Mainly thanks to Hugo's strong appeal, almost all Hollywood bigwigs are willing to express their concern for children's diseases through the "Sally Foundation". Over the past two years, the Sally Foundation has been doing its best to help children, and festivals have always been an integral part of it.
All the children who attended the Easter party today were sick children, and they were allowed to attend the party with the doctor's permission. Even so, three ambulances and three medical teams were arranged on site, and the Foundation also signaled that it had greeted the city to ensure that it was able to respond to any emergencies.
Hugo personally rushed back to Los Angeles from Lanches to attend the party. Hugo tried to be as hands-on as possible in all the Foundation's activities, not informing the media unless it was necessary, but trying to help the children as much as possible - because the Sally Foundation can do more than the media publicizes.
Children need a quiet environment, a happy childhood, and medical help, but they don't need media hype.
