When Hugo returned to Long Beach, it was already afternoon.

As soon as the car was parked, he saw Forquin and Pedro coming to greet him, while Neil, Alfonso and Cameron stood on the steps of the doorway, their expressions unclear in the shadows. Pedro kept looking Hugo up and down, "Are you alright?" Are you okay? ”

Fokine directly threw out the sentence "If there is something, it will not be standing", which made Pedro smirk, Fokine glanced back at his car, then looked at Hugo, and nodded his chin, "I'm surprised that the car is not damaged, I will take this as my Christmas present this year." ”

Hugo directly punched Foquin in the chest, "I put the key where it was." Then he walked in the direction of the gate.

Neil and Alfonso looked at each other and walked briskly down, but they didn't say anything, just gave Hugo a look as they passed by, and then passed by. When Hugo walked up the steps and looked back, he found that the four of them had already run away in the direction of the beach.

"It looks like the wave should be good today." Hugo pointed to the beach and made a joke, but Cameron had a serious face and had no intention of laughing at all, which made Hugo a little embarrassed, he touched his head and said sincerely, "I'm sorry, it was all my fault for leaving you here alone last night." ”

Cameron gritted her teeth, her apricot eyes widened, full of anger but she couldn't find a trigger point to vent, and Hugo's apology didn't calm her down, "I don't like it, I don't like this." ”

"What?" Hugo was also not angry and looked at Cameron patiently.

"You slept in the same room as Charlize last night!" Cameron said aggressively that she couldn't sleep just thinking about it.

Hugo was a little stunned, because he didn't think it was a problem, after all, he had lived under the same roof with Charlize for so long, and he still lived in Sunset Square when he and Cameron first started dating. But at this time, seeing the burning anger in Cameron's eyes, Hugo also had to explain solemnly, "You know, Charlize and I ...... It's a friend, and it's just a friend. ”

Cameron knew, of course she knew, and the anger in her heart couldn't help but start tumbling, "Really? Are you really just friends? ”

The Cameron in front of him made Hugo a little strange and a little familiar, which made Hugo feel a little uncomfortable in his heart, because he and Charlize really didn't have anything to do last night, they were just friends. But Hugo explained seriously and patiently, "Cameron, I don't like to lie, you know that. Charlize and I are really just friends. ”

Cameron opened her mouth, she knew that Hugo was telling the truth. Hugo never liked to lie, let alone betrayal, and more often than not, Hugo always liked to be straight and tell the truth, even in front of media reporters. Cameron knew all this, but she still couldn't suppress her emotions, and the stinging sensation of sourness and tangled made her want to get angry.

However, looking at Hugo with a sincere face in front of him, Cameron saw the answer he wanted in those clear eyes. Hugo's eyes never lie - they really didn't have anything going on. Realizing this, all of Cameron's anger fell, as if she had fallen into the mud, she bit her lower lip and ruffled her hair in frustration, "Sorry, I didn't mean to, I don't want to ...... this either"

Cameron's fragility made Hugo can't help but soften his heart, he wants Cameron to believe in himself, but he also knows that he didn't give Cameron enough security, which is his fault. Hugo took half a step forward, gently took Cameron into his arms, and whispered, "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry." ”

Hugo's light aroma came to her face, surrounded Cameron, she couldn't help but close her eyes, and then buried her head deep in Hugo's chest, and breathed hard, this smell, this temperature, made Cameron feel an unprecedented sense of security, and the tense muscles in her body slowly relaxed.

Looking at Cameron who was buried in his arms, his thin shoulders looked extremely fragile, and it was obvious that she hadn't slept well all night last night. This made Hugo slowly close his eyes, and then exhale softly, but still could not relieve the pressure on his shoulders.

"So, what the hell happened last night? You didn't make it clear on the phone, what happened to Sally? Cameron buried himself in Hugo's chest and asked in a muffled voice.

Hugo didn't know whether he should tell anyone else about Charlize and Mr. Perfect, because it was Charlify's privacy, and even if they let their friends know, she should tell it herself—whether it was Cameron, Alex, Joseph, etc. This is the minimum respect for a friend.

"She had some problems with Mr. Perfect, mainly because of the recent filming of 'Devil's Advocate', she has been seeing a psychiatrist and has a mental breakdown." Hugo only briefly said some outlines, and then he saw Cameron suddenly raise his head at the first sentence, staring into his eyes tightly, motionless. Hugo went on to explain, "I just used to be a friend to help a little bit. Later, when you have the chance, you can listen to Charlize tell you about the situation yourself. ”

Cameron opened her mouth, and those angry words wanted to be said again, she wanted to say "What does it matter to you that Charlize and her boyfriend have problems", but this time she suppressed it and only said with some anger, "Are you so good to all your friends?" Just drive for hours just to hear about her? ”

Hugo didn't want to explain Charlize's collapse, if it weren't for Charlize's whole person shattered last night, he wouldn't have rushed over, just a phone call was enough, "Important friends, I will do the same." Hugo's words made Cameron unable to refute them, because she knew that this was indeed the case, and that friends were very important to Hugo, from Joseph to Rick, from Charlize to Leonardo.

"So if I fell into the sea at the same time as Charlize, who would you save?" Cameron blurted out.

Hugo looked at Cameron in front of him in surprise, an urge to laugh spontaneously, he didn't expect that he would encounter such a problem - it was in Long Beach in 1997, but he also knew that this was not the time to laugh, so he looked at Cameron seriously, "Do you really want me to answer this question?" You know my answer. ”

Cameron bit his lower lip tightly, but shook his head, "I want to hear from you." ”

Hugo pursed his lips and tried to see a hint of faltering in Cameron's eyes, but he didn't, "You know I'm not going to let this happen, I'm not going to let you fall into the water at the same time." Cameron opened his mouth, but Hugo continued, "And, officially, it is clarified that you and Charlize are both better swimmers than me, and maybe I am the one who needs to call for help." ”

Cameron didn't know whether she should be angry or smiling, this was not the answer she wanted, but looking at Hugo's pitiful expression, she couldn't help but laugh after all. Turning his head a little uncomfortably, and then secretly glanced at Hugo, but saw the smile on the corner of Hugo's mouth, and his cheeks couldn't help but fly two blushes, and gently beat Hugo's chest.

At this time, Cameron noticed that Hugo's T-shirt had been changed, "You dress...... What happened to yesterday's clothes? ”

Hugo lifted the plastic bag in his right hand and said with a wry smile, "Just look at it." Cameron opened it and flipped through it, his expression suddenly became very weird, and Hugo explained with a smile, "It's full of tears and snot, I think it should be sent to the dry cleaners." Cameron nodded his chin slightly, but did not speak, Hugo pointed to the T-shirt on his body, "This is the promotional T-shirt that came with the motel, I didn't bring a change of clothes, so I can only wear this." ”

A smile tugged at the corner of Cameron's mouth, "Who made you go so quickly yesterday." This T-shirt looks so ugly, go get rid of it. ”

Hugo looked down and said puzzledly, "I think it's okay, although it doesn't have any characteristics, it's relatively simple, and it's okay to pass it on." "This kind of promotional T-shirt is all one size, there is no cut to speak of, and naturally there is no characteristic.

To be honest, Hugo is tall and full, so it can be said that he looks thin and undressed, and even the simplest T-shirt still attracts attention. But Cameron looked at the T-shirt and felt very uncomfortable, but this time she didn't say it, just smiled and pushed Hugo into the room, "Go change it, take a shower by the way, I see you seem to be very uncomfortable." ”

"Well, I didn't take a shower last night, and now my skin is starting to feel a little sticky." Last night he didn't even know when he would go to sleep, let alone wash up, so Hugo didn't refuse, and went straight into the house, and then raised his voice and said, "Remember to take the clothes to dry cleaning, otherwise it will stink in the afternoon." Thinking of Charlize's embarrassment last night, Hugo burst out laughing.

"Okay, just leave it to me." Cameron looked down at the clothes in his hand, just the simplest coat and shirt, but Cameron felt extremely glaring, as if it was all a reminder of what happened last night.

Cameron was uneasy, even though she knew that Hugo would not lie, even though she knew that Hugo and Charlize might really have nothing to do, but she was still uneasy, and that sense of uneasiness did not even have a source, it was like a giant beast devouring her, and the alarm bells in her ears were ringing, as if all disasters would come to her.

Cameron bit his lower lip and stood there thinking for a long time, before finally walking down the stairs and towards the main street.

This is the villa area, and there are huge garbage cans parked at the door of each villa, so that residents can put their garbage at the door and wait for the garbage truck to come and collect it. Cameron walked to the trash can, looked left and right, made sure that no one was paying attention to her at this time, and finally put the whole plastic bag into the trash can, and then pressed the two bags of garbage next to it on top of this bag, and after making sure that it was not visible from the outside, he turned around and took a new step in the direction of the house.
