1733 Chapter 1733

After being silent for a long time, the coffee in his hand was already cold, and Hugo broke the silence again, "You asked Leo to come to my room just now, right?" Although Leonardo did have a lot of thoughts on acting to communicate with Hugo, But he was never so insensitive, even if Joseph came in to urge him, he still did not leave.

Charlize twitched the corners of her mouth, she knew that these things could not be hidden from Hugo. A lot of times, Hugo was too careful, so he always made him feel very hard. "Seeing your expression of bitterness and hatred today, we can't ignore it." Charlize's complaints made Hugo immediately Fried hair, "Hey, how can I! I control my expression very well!"

Charlize turned her head to look at Hugo, and laughed lightly, but the smile was only outlined, and then slowly subsided again, she lowered her eyes, turned her head again, and looked at the "barren" garden outside, "I It's your friend, of course I can tell if you are happy or not." After a pause, Charlize laughed again, "Even Leo can tell."

Hugo shook his head helplessly, then lowered his head and looked at his own shadow on the ground. The flickering lights in the hotel lobby fell down, causing his shadow to overlap with a shadow next to him, as if two people were snuggling together. together. This made Hugo stunned for a while, because at least one person could sit between him and Charlize, but why did the shadow look so... intimate?

"Did you quarrel with her because of me?" Charlize finally asked this question after being silent for a long time. When Hugo and Cameron were arguing just now, she heard the sentence, "You are not the same as her". In context, Charlize knew it was her.

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

"But we were just friends." Hugo said urgently, but after speaking, he couldn't help but looked away, as if he wanted to avoid Charlize's eyes, and he didn't know why.

Charlize could feel Hugo's gaze, but she didn't turn her head, she just twitched the corner of her mouth lightly, "But Cameron doesn't think so." Originally, Charlize believed that there is a pure friendship between men and women, Like between her and Alexander, like between her and Joseph, like... between her and Hugo.

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

However, Charlize himself did not notice the loss in his heart. Or, she noticed it, but she thought it was just because she felt lost because she needed to keep her distance from her best friend.

Charlize's words silenced Hugo, knowing that Charlize was telling the truth.

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

Hugo sorted out his thoughts, thought about it seriously, and recalled, "She's really good, she looks good, has a good figure, and has a good personality..." But he found that there was no way to draw a clear image in his mind, as if Everything is so vague. This surprised Hugo, because he and Cameron have been dating for two and a half years.

"So, she's just a 'nice' to you?" Charlize didn't hide the sarcasm in his smile. Even if Hugo didn't look back and heard the light snort, he could imagine that Charlize was at this moment. expression.

Hugo nodded his chin slightly, "Because it's good, so I've been working hard and trying, at least I have a crush on her..." But there was no way for the words to be coherent. I cleared my mind, but now I find that my mind is still confused, "But I feel like I..."

"Twisted love?" Charlize's mockery made Hugo smile bitterly, but he had no way to refute it, he just lowered his head in shame, "Or was it wasting her time? Or hurt her in a warm way?"

Every sentence made Hugo unable to refute. He could only bow his head and nodded sullenly, but his heart was like a weed. 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 sarcasm in the gradually cooling coffee aroma.

"So, I once wanted to confess to her, or at least open my heart. But..." Hugo's expression was obscure, but Charlize understood it at once. She knew that Hugo had no way to say it, even if It was Hugo who had never been able to do anything more extreme than Uma at the beginning. This gentleman's etiquette is Hugo's advantage and Hugo's disadvantage.

Charlize shrugged slightly, "You know, it's the more terrifying injury to her." Not just today. "It seems that all men are like this, always feel that they can linger in a love that has no real feelings, because it can be maintained only by the physical touch. Then, when the next target is found, it is quickly replaced without any Nostalgia. In the end, it's always the woman who gets hurt."

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

"Of course not." Hugo panicked and quickly explained, "It's just that I missed the opportunity, when... when the Houston incident happened, she faced the bad situation by herself and tried her best to protect me from harm, After the incident, her whole body completely collapsed, panicking like a child, she jumped into my arms and cried. So, I had to hug her, comfort her, and then..."

Hugo raised his head and saw Charlize's quiet eyes, with a playful twinkle in his eyes, as if mocking Hugo's excuse for being too clumsy. But the fact is that, at the "Road to Glory" Houston concert, some fans gave Hugo. Medicine, but Cameron turned the tide. Since Hugo missed that opportunity, he has no choice. Next, Hugo became Cameron's red-carpet companion for the premiere of "Grange in Disguise".

Memories rushed in like a tide, and Hugo didn't know whether he was convincing Charlize or convincing himself, "Actually, it's not that I don't like it, it's just that I haven't reached the level of 'love', and there is still a long way to go..."

"Are you kidding me? You're not picking the flavor of ice cream." Hugo choked up at Charlize's words, his face was confused, but he didn't know how to express it, Charlize chuckled. "Then do you want me to hug you, this flustered little boy?"

Saying that, Charlize also opened his hands towards Hugo, still with that mocking smile on his face.

Hugo was stunned, lowered his eyes to hide his eyes, pursed his lips lightly, and finally shrugged, "Okay."

This time, it was Charlize who was turned against the generals, and he put his hands down helplessly, "Then what? Would you try it with me too?" Everyone actually laughed lightly at the same time, and the smile at the corner of his mouth broke into the bottom of his heart from the bottom of his eyes.

After laughing, the atmosphere settled down. Charlize put the coffee cup aside, picked up the chocolate bar in Hugo's hand, tore open the package bit by bit, and couldn't help taking a small bite, it was just a small piece between the teeth, that careful Hugo's expression aroused disgust for a while, and that contemptuous gaze made Charlize feel a little embarrassed.

Charlize simply picked up the chocolate bar and ate it freely, "Perhaps I should say this, as a friend, I hope you can be happy. But... were you happy when you were with Cameron?" Hugo opened his mouth, but was stopped by Charlize waving a chocolate bar, "Or, are you really working hard enough? I'd rather be jealous of your happiness than be a stumbling block in your life."

"It's like I'm jealous of you?" Hugo 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 then did he realize that it was already empty, and he had to cough twice to hide his emotions, "Charlize, why do you always dislike my girlfriend?"

Charlize raised his eyebrows, "You don't like Mr. Perfect either." Mr. Perfect, this nickname is actually the biggest irony. Charlize's smile closed slightly, "Probably because we knew each other too well during the time we were 'living together', so it can always be seen at a glance that my friend is not happy. ."

After saying a word, Hugo and Charlize fell silent. Because, Hugo knows, Charlize has been changing himself for Mr. Perfect: Charlize never likes to use coasters, but Mr. Perfect asks him to use it; compared to red wine, Charlize prefers beer, but perfect Mister is used to wine and whisky; Mister Perfect even asks Charlize to read books on ancient Greek mythology, just because these books allow Charlize to understand "how men see myths"...

That's not Charlize.

Hugo sees the details of these lives; in the same way, Charlize is also clear about Hugo's dream, about Hugo's persistence, about Cameron's choice, about Cameron's desire...

"That's why you have to be happier, so happy that I'm jealous." Hugo turned his head to look at Charlize, and said with a smile, the mixed emotions in his eyes were well hidden, and he deliberately made An exaggerated and greasy look. Charlize directly gave Hugo a blank eye, and punched Hugo hard on the shoulder, causing Hugo to mourn directly.

This sound broke the tranquility of the hotel lobby, and everyone looked over in an instant. Hugo quickly stood up and waved his hands to apologize to everyone, but after sitting down immediately, he and Charlize crossed their eyes and had to hold their stomachs and laugh sullenly, completely overjoyed.
