Chapter 448 448 Mother of Friends

Hugo originally thought that a certain movie fan recognized him. Because the focus of attention did not stay on Hugo deliberately, and now because he reached out to help the middle-aged lady, he has received special attention, and it is not unusual for someone to recognize him.

When Hugo looked down the line of sight, the surprise on his face almost dislocated the top of his chin, "Charlize?" Hugo never thought that he would see Charlize Theron on the streets of New York!

Although Hugo has been on the road for a while, and then blocked in the studio, he has little contact with Charlize, but as far as Hugo knows, Charlize should be working in Los Angeles now. , I heard from Carl that Charlize seems to have received a new job recently, but...

"Hey, why are you here?"

Hugo and Charlize said in surprise at the same time, and then they both laughed in unison, the smiles at the corners of their mouths raised a similar arc together, and the same emotions in their sight fluctuated through the crowd. New York's sparse and thin sunshine gave the moment a halo, as if everything around him had become softer, even the sound of engines on the street and the noise of the crowd were no longer shrill and irritable.

Hugo and Charlize stood face to face like this, separated by the surging crowd, the familiar face changed to a different color in the pupils at this moment. For a ten-thousandth of a millisecond, the sun was frozen like this, the same smile, the same eyes danced on the brows, the curvature of the corners of the mouth, the sweat on the tip of the nose, the trembling of the fingertips, and the beating of the heart were all clear by the sunlight. Outlined, imprinted with similar outlines, painted similar imprints.

"Sally, who is this?" The middle-aged lady standing beside Charlize interrupted the ten thousandth of a millisecond. In that instant, the hustle and bustle of the city roared past, and the surrounding noise was amplified endlessly. The eardrums hurt so much, and the beating of the heart made a faint pain in the chest.

The smile at the corner of Charlize's mouth was withdrawn in a panic, her eyes hurriedly shifted from Hugo's eyes to the smile on the edge of the thin lips, and her heart jumped, causing her to move her eyes down again, and then Hastily transferred to the mother beside him, "He...he is Hugo, Hugo-Lancaster..." After speaking, Charlize glanced at Hugo hurriedly, and found that Hugo's sparse eyebrows were in Shining brightly under the sun, she couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, trying to calm herself down.

"Who?" Charlize's mother, Gerda. Theron, was still at a loss.

At this moment, Charlize was pulled back to reality by her mother's doubts. She glanced at Hugo who was walking in a panic, and winked at Hugo. In a hurry, she could only raise her voice and say, "Uh ...Mom, don't you remember? Hugo is...the guy who lives upstairs from me, yes, upstairs, I should have mentioned it to you."

Hugo looked at Charlize in front of him, and simply tied his hair into a ponytail, a navy blue striped T-shirt and a long beige trench coat. The youthful vitality was even more charming, so that Hugo could almost hear it clearly. To the sound of his heart hitting his chest, the feeling of the blood speeding up made Hugo lose his mind for a moment.

But soon, Hugo regained his composure. He told himself that he and Charlize are now friends and roommates. This relationship is very good, and maintaining this balance is the most sensible choice.

Hugo realized that the lady beside Charlize was her mother, so it would be rude for him not to come forward to say hello, so he hurried forward. Immediately after Charlize's deliberately raised voice entered Hugo's ears, Hugo immediately understood: Charlize didn't tell her mother that the current shared roommate was two boys.

So Hugo also gave Charlize a "I understand" look, and stretched out his right hand with a smile, "You must be Jerda, it's nice to meet you, I'm Hugo-Lancaster, living in Upstairs in Charlize, also an actor."

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Hugo." Jerda held Hugo's right hand and kept looking at Hugo up and down. Charlize was very embarrassed by that inquiring look, but Jerda didn't care about her daughter at all. She still looked at Hugo with interest, "So, Sally mentioned me to you?" Jerda would not miss the detail that Hugo just called her by name.

Charlize stood just behind Jerda, winking at Hugo, obviously worried, lest Hugo accidentally say the wrong thing. In fact, Hugo is also very nervous now. He didn't expect to meet Charlize's mother in this situation. "Friend's parents", the word is always easy to make people nervous, even if nothing happens, there is no exception. . So, now both Charlize and Hugo are in a state of slight panic, but they don't have time to confess.

Hugo glanced at Charlize, but Jerda immediately looked back at her daughter, so Charlize immediately took back the expression on her face, "Mom, it's just a matter of chatting with friends..."

"It's not you that I asked." Jerda's gentle but undeniable words instantly made Charlize lose his temper. Jelda looked like a very kind housewife, always with a kind smile on her lips, but occasionally she could see her perseverance between her wrinkled brows.

Hugo remembered Charlize mentioning that her father had died in a car accident. Although single-parent families have become more common in the twenty-first century, single-parent families are not so easy at any time. Jerda may be an ordinary housewife, but as long as it is for her children, Hugo believes that she can burst into infinite energy, and never underestimate a mother's dedication to her children.

After Jerda finished speaking, she turned her head to look at Hugo again, Hugo quickly looked back, and said with a chuckle, "Charlize told me that you are a very good cook, Almost every time we meet, I can hear her missing your craftsmanship." Hugo's words made Jerda's slightly stiff eyebrows slightly stretch, but his eyes were still looking at Hugo seriously, not sharp, But it was very sincere, and the pressure fell on Hugo's shoulders quietly, "When I mention Charlize occasionally, I just think that you should be a very kind mother, but it was a bit unexpected to meet today."

Hugo's words raised Jerda's eyebrows slightly, which seemed to be a sign of anger, "Why, I'm disappointed to meet today?" What is the opposite of kind, is it fierce? No woman likes to be called fierce by others, not even her daughter's friend, let alone a handsome man.

When Charlize heard Hugo's words, a black line suddenly appeared on her forehead. She looked at Hugo anxiously, and tried to interject several times, trying to cover up for Hugo, but she was worried that she would be more and more helpful. The most important thing is Jerda was standing beside her, completely restraining her hands and feet, which made her very depressed.

Charlize's usual carefree personality is very forthright, but seeing the gestures of her little children today made Hugo inexplicably relaxed, but sighed, "It turns out that Charlize looked like this in front of her mother." But since he was still facing Jerda at this time, Hugo didn't dare to get distracted, and still concentrated on answering, "No, after meeting today, I am very impressed with your arm strength." As Hugo spoke, he looked at Looking at the huge pumpkin on the ground, Jerda and Charlize's expressions suddenly became exciting.

Being told by a man that he has strong arms, this should be planned into the realm of shame and humiliation for women, but Hugo's warm smile and light ridicule are not annoying, and Jerda doesn't know who he is. To be angry or to smile. Immediately, Hugo went on to say, "I think Charlize must have been naughty as a baby."

Charlize stood by and didn't realize what was going on, but Jerda realized it at once, and a smile bloomed on the corner of his mouth.

Hugo also glanced at Charlize, and the smile overflowed from the corner of his eyes, "Also, you should be a little younger than I thought. Because, you know, a kind mother, a good cook, takes care of her daughter tenderly... ...to complete a mother puzzle with such vocabulary would be a little older." That's actually a compliment to Jelda for looking young.

Jerda nodded her chin with a smile at the corner of her mouth, "It seems that Sally has talked to you a lot." Jerda also noticed that Hugo had always called her daughter "Charlize" and did not use a nickname, which made her feel uncomfortable. She was a little relieved. The entertainment industry is full of countless traps. Jerda has always warned her daughter to be careful not to sell her soul for success. Therefore, Gerda will inevitably be stricter with Charlize, which is a bit like a soldier. Still, Hugo has left a good impression on her so far.

"Oh, no, most of them are sketched by myself. You know, actors are always a little over-imaginative." Hugo shook his head repeatedly and said with a smile, "However, Charlize mentioned to me that she was in the That rant in the bank really opened my eyes."

"Hahahaha..." Jerda finally laughed, and the atmosphere suddenly relaxed. Charlize stood beside him and breathed a sigh of relief, but gave Hugo a vicious look, obviously expressing his strong dissatisfaction with Hugo's constant teasing of himself just now.

Hugo just glanced at Charlize out of the corner of his eyes, and his indifferent eyes seemed to say, "I'm helping you, okay?" This suddenly made Charlize's eyes round, grinding his teeth, clenching his teeth tightly. He made a fist, but there was no way he could get Hugo.
