Chapter 1773 Chapter 1773

The air seemed to freeze, so warm. The ambiguous heat wave rolled slowly in the room, and the cicadas could be faintly heard in the vineyard outside the window, but it made the night seem more quiet. The twitching made the mouth dry, and I couldn't help but want to lick my lips.

Hugo's eyes stayed on Charlize's familiar eyes. The clear mint green was translucent, and under the milky yellow light, it also reflected the clarity and purity of azure blue, just like a lake on the top of the Alps. There is a thrilling beauty hidden under a thin layer of water mist, but the familiar eyes have become strange again, like a mysterious abyss, with colorful halos rippling underneath, and the bottom of my heart wants to find out. want. Wang is in a commotion.

Charlize has looked at Hugo's face countless times, with narrow peach eyes, thick eyebrows like mountains, nose bridge like a ridge, and those damn soft lips that always make people curious. She had to slightly tighten her right hand and make a fist, so as to avoid the urge to slowly outline Hugo's facial features with her index finger like a painter; but her eyes fell into Hugo's eyes, the amber Her dark eyes are like a cloudless clear sky, and the warm light makes people just want to wander in it, unable to extricate themselves like that.

The eyes of Hugo and Charlize touched together in this way, and the peripheral vision of the eyes moved down bit by bit along the eyebrows, eyelashes, and the bridge of the nose, and finally slowly drew the ups and downs of the lip line, imagining the rosy lips in my mind soft and beautiful. The clear eyes reflected the raging flames, and a dense mist formed, making the eyes hazy and strange, and one could only faintly see the tumbling sparks in the depths of the vision, besides, Everything becomes indistinct.

Charlize saw Hugo's Adam's Apple rolled slightly, and Hugo noticed that Charlize slightly pursed his lips, and his eyes were entangled in the air, unable to separate. The uncontrollable magic made the two of them touch each other bit by bit. Get closer, like survivors keeping each other warm in a world of ice and snow.

The beating of the heart was so forceful and chaotic that Hugo could clearly feel the pain coming from his chest, but the faint pain stung his brain and made him pause slightly.

He is now in a relationship with Cameron, and he is in a stable relationship with Cameron now. Cameron just came to Long Beach to meet him in person today. He left Long Beach temporarily for a friend, but Cameron Awaiting himself in Long Beach... what's more, he and Charlize are friends, they're friends. "Once it starts, it means the end." This is a consequence he cannot bear.

Hugo clenched his teeth tightly and forced himself to stop. A muffled sound of "cracking" came over, making Charlize stop too, breaking the bond between the two people, and all the heat wave As if it dissipated in an instant, the magic lost its effectiveness at this moment, and all the haze and mist faded away like a tide.

Charlize looked down, and it was she who pressed the beer can in her hand, which made the noise. She laughed dryly, and turned over in a panic, not only avoiding Hugo's sight, but also away from the rain Fruit that hot body temperature. The chaotic thoughts in her mind made her unable to think, so she continued to laugh, "Haha, haha." After laughing out loud, thinking of the situation just now, there was an inexplicable sense of absurdity in her heart, and then Charlize instead is really laughing.

Turning around, he saw Hugo in front of him again. There was also a smile on the corner of Hugo's mouth. The two people's eyes met again, and they both seemed to feel that the situation just now was too joyful, and they laughed at the same time. It's just that Charlize laughed heartily, but Hugo just chuckled a few times, maybe Hugo didn't realize the trace of helplessness.

Charlize knew that she and Hugo were just friends, that the two of them had been friends all along, and that they had been friends since it seemed that they had missed it at the very beginning. What's more, even if she doesn't like Cameron anymore, Hugo is indeed in a relationship with Cameron. Therefore, the thunder pool between them is still insurmountable, and more importantly, she does not want to lose Hugo as a friend. I don't want to, and I can't.

After laughing heartily, Charlize turned over, looked at Hugo, thought for a while, and asked, "Why doesn't everyone believe that there can be pure friendship between men and women?"

Hugo pondered for a while, and looked at Charlize again, calmly and calmly, "I think it should be a lesson for everyone."

"So..." Charlize looked into Hugo's clear eyes and asked cautiously, "You...don't treat me as a woman?"

The corner of Hugo's mouth slightly drew a smile, "You don't think of me as a man, do you?"

One sentence has too many meanings. Charlize noticed the tone of Hugo's rhetorical question, which meant that Hugo's answer was... This made the smile on the corner of her mouth pause slightly, but she didn't know what to say. She opened her mouth and asked directly, "Then if I treat you as a man, will you treat me as a woman?"

However, as soon as this sentence was asked, Charlize noticed that the words were too warm. Ambiguous, and too ambiguous. This made Charlize a little annoyed, but she didn't want to hide it, otherwise the atmosphere would only become more strange. Charlize looked at Hugo like this, but saw that Hugo's clear eyes dimmed slightly, as if he was hiding something, he hesitated to speak.

The atmosphere became quiet again at this moment, but it was not as dramatic as before, there was no burst of sparks, and there was no chemical reaction. It was just that the two of them quieted down, and the secrets deep in their hearts seemed to be revealed bit by bit. The fog became clearer.

"Jingle bell, jingle bell!"

A series of mobile phone sounds suddenly rang, as if the sound exploded in the ear, breaking all the atmosphere in an instant, and the two of them lay back on their backs again. Charlize didn't know why she felt an inexplicable sense of loss and irritability in her heart. She raised her right hand to cover her eyes, and said impatiently, "Go and pick it up."

Although Charlize didn't know who called Hugo at all, she sat up and said mockingly, "I don't want Cameron to misunderstand, especially when I 'forced' Mr. Perfect to escape. .” After finishing speaking, Charlize didn’t go to see Hugo either—or she didn’t dare to look, so she got out of bed, walked into the bathroom, and left space for Hugo.

Hugo sat up, looked at Charlize's back and didn't speak, the piercing ringtone of the phone kept echoing. Charlize closed the bathroom door, and then he looked away, lowered his head and pursed his lips slightly, the confusion in his heart was really hard to describe in words, even he himself didn't know what was going on in his head right now.

With a long sigh, he found the phone on the table, looked at the number, and it turned out to be Cameron, "Well, it's me."

Cameron's voice also seemed a little tired. In the past few hours, she couldn't get through Hugo's phone, nor heard any news from Hugo. This made her restless, and she wanted to convince herself that she was worried about Hugo, worried about Hugo's driving problem, worried about Hugo's physical condition, worried about Hugo being followed by paparazzi, but... after the call was connected , was full of concern but couldn't say it out, he just said hesitantly, "You, have you found Charlize?"

"Yes, I saw her." Hugo nodded slightly, and looked at the closed door of the bathroom again, but his mood gradually calmed down.

Cameron paused, trying to show a smile, and asked with concern, "Is she all right?"

"It's okay..." Hugo tried to sort out his words, "It's just a matter of work. Recently, she has been under too much mental pressure and has collapsed."

Cameron could hear Hugo's voice was calm, without any particular emotion. But it was precisely this kind of calm that made Cameron uneasy. She wanted to speak out, but she didn't know how to start. In the end, she just asked, "Then... will you drive back tonight?"

"Oh, I'm in Napa now, it's too far to go back, I guess I'll go back tomorrow morning, I'll find a room in the motel today to sleep..." Hugo explained the situation in a low voice, and then talked with Cameron We chatted intermittently.

Charlize was standing in front of the washbasin in the bathroom, looking at herself in the mirror, feeling annoyed, and she didn't know why she hid - she entered the bathroom to give Hugo the space, but this was A guilty conscience. In the past, she never deliberately avoided the time when Hugo was with his girlfriend. There is no doubt that she and Hugo are friends, and she has always been upright. And now, too, but...why?

Deep in her heart, far away, Charlize knew her answer, because she didn't want to hear Hugo and Cameron talking on the phone, she didn't want to see Hugo still doing useless work by Cameron's side, she didn't want Thinking that Cameron is the one who is really suitable for Hugo... But when the answer surfaced, Charlize realized that she was jealous.

A wry smile formed at the corner of her mouth, and Charlize grabbed her hair angrily, but didn't know what to do. Looking at her embarrassment and haggardness in the mirror, Charlize can only tell herself that maybe, all this is just because Hugo is her best friend.

After turning on the faucet and washing his face, his consciousness finally became clearer. Charlize opened the door and walked out, but found that the room was quiet. Hugo was not talking on the phone, but lying on the bed. at every turn. Charlize walked over to take a look, and found that Hugo was still holding the brick phone in his hand, but he was already asleep.

Charlize climbed carefully into bed. Looking at Hugo's sleeping profile, he couldn't help laughing, but Cameron's voice still came from the phone receiver, "Hugo, hey! Hugo?" Hugo, who fell asleep, Charlize hesitated for a moment, and picked up the phone lightly.
