Chapter 474 474 The Role of Friends
"Hugo..." Carl tried to say something, but he saw Hugo raised his head and looked at him, those amber eyes were filled with exhaustion and alienation, all his words were stuck in his throat, Can't say anything. In terms of friendship, he and Joseph naturally have a better relationship, and he is an agent like Joseph, so he always wants to speak for Joseph. But now, in this situation, it seems inappropriate to say anything more.
Hugo waved his hand indifferently, and his whole smile softened, "You should go to rest, you have to go to work tomorrow, don't you?"
Carl hesitated, looked at Charlize and Alex, and nodded, "Then I'll go upstairs first." Carl walked to the entrance of the hall and stopped. He wanted to say something, but found him Now there is nothing to say, and I can't find anything worth mentioning after searching my stomach. In the end, I can only open the door depressed and walk upstairs.
Alex sat on the sofa and looked at Hugo. He was still in a daze. He didn't know what to say. Instead, Hugo laughed first, "You should go take a shower. If Charlize goes in first, there must be no So soon."
Alex touched his head uncomfortably, "Yes, yes, I should go first, Charlize might not come out for an hour, and then some strange noises came out, which made people blush and heartbeat. "
"Hey! Who said that!" Charlize immediately muttered dissatisfiedly, picked up the pillow on the sofa and smashed it at Alex. But Alex had already trained his sensitive reflexes. He jumped up and sprinted towards the bathroom, shouting, "No one said it, it's a fact!" After that, he closed the bathroom door directly, causing Charlize to sit on the sofa and look like he was going to eat people.
Hugo's mood was relieved by the trouble of Charlize and Alex. He found that Charlize turned his hatred on himself, and he quickly waved his hand, "I didn't say that!" Even if he He said that he must not admit it at this moment, otherwise he believes that Charlize will definitely cut him into pieces.
In fact, the strange sounds that Alex mentioned were the sound of Charlize humming in the shower, but Charlize's singing voice is really not very good. They have laughed at this for a long time, so that every time Charlize is mentioned, it is very annoying. Easily irritated.
Charlize glared at Hugo with gritted teeth, then stood up directly and walked towards Hugo, Hugo involuntarily leaned back, "Hey, I really didn't say anything! "Then Charlize stood directly in front of him and stretched out his hands. Hugo subconsciously stretched out his hands, "Sally! Don't force me to use violence!"
"Violence? Are you sure?" Charlize grabbed the bath towel from Hugo's hand, looked at the panicked Hugo, suppressed a smile, knelt on the sofa, and covered the bath towel over Hugo On his head, "Sally!" Hugo immediately wanted to pull the bath towel, but was violently suppressed by Charlize, "Don't move!"
I saw Charlize picked up the bath towel and started wiping Hugo's hair vigorously, muttering, "Aren't you tired, you're going to sleep, how can you see that your spirit is getting better and better."
Knowing that Charlize was wiping his hair, Hugo quieted down, but still yelled, "Take it, take it easy! Are you trying to pull my hair out? I don't want to look like this. To the premiere tomorrow."
"I'm willing to wipe your hair for you, so you should stay quiet." Charlize pressed Hugo's head hard with both hands, motioning for him to calm down, which made Hugo quite helpless, and Charlize drooped from Hugo The depressed expression on his face can be imagined from the shoulders down, which made Charlize's smile involuntarily outline.
Regarding the matter of Joseph, Hugo had already made his stand at the Hollywood Bowl tonight. It has only been less than an hour, and even if it is brought up again, it will not change. Just like Joseph decided not to participate in the Glory To Death Tonight Carnival, Joseph must have decided not to attend the premiere of tomorrow. It was also a decision made before to let Carl communicate the schedule. So, no matter what you say now, it's useless, both of them are angry.
Charlize was naturally on Hugo's side. She felt that Joseph had done something wrong from the beginning to the end, but what could she do? She couldn't press Joseph to apologize to Hugo, so she could only calm down. Take a look at Hugo's inner irritability, at least that's what she can do as a friend.
Charlize slowed down and wiped Hugo's hair slowly, and the hall fell into such a silence for a while, except for the sound of the crackling water in the shower in the bathroom, there was no sound. Charlize was half kneeling behind Hugo, wiping Hugo's hair with a bath towel, while Hugo was half leaning on the sofa, closing his eyes and sitting quietly.
This kind of silence has a power to calm people down. Charlize can clearly feel the wetness of Hugo's hair and the softness of his hair through his fingers. Hugo's breathing gradually recovered in her rhythmic movements. . The world seemed to stop like this, the passage of time was like a wisp of smoke, blowing over the skin of the back of the hand, itching slowly and softly, and everything softened.
Charlize felt the rumored dampness in the palm of her hand, and could vaguely feel the heartbeat coming from her ears and temples, thump, thump... so that her heartbeat was also clearly transmitted to the pulse of her wrist, staggering and beating. And then gradually approached, and then approached, it seemed to become the same rhythm. This caused Charlize to avoid her eyes in a panic, even though Hugo had her back to her and her eyes were covered by a bath towel, she still avoided her eyes.
"So, is there anything I can do to help?" Charlize broke the silence of the moment. The hand of the clock on the wall only turned for one hundred and eighty seconds, but she definitely seemed to have spent a century, calm and steady. The powerful heartbeat made Charlize unable to tell whether it was hers or his.
"Help?" Hugo's mellow voice came out lazily from under the bath towel with a strong tiredness, like the G string of a cello, gently plucked. The quietness of wiping his hair just now made Hugo's eyelids heavy again, and the pain in his body caused his entire brain to come to a standstill.
Charlize listened to Hugo's lazy and sexy voice, and the sudden disorder of her heartbeat made the strength in her hands involuntarily exert a little more force, and she wiped it twice as if to vent, which made Hugo regain her sanity in an instant. "Hey, Oliver!" Hugo is talking about the heroine Oliver in the cartoon "Popeye. The. Sailor".
This immediately made Charlize angrily and punched Hugo in the shoulder, "So you are Pluto?"
Hugo chuckled twice, "I thought I could be Poppy."
"Cut." Charlize sneered directly, making Hugo chuckle. Hugo turned and leaned on the back of the sofa, all relaxed, looking at Charlize, "So what did you say? Help?"
Charlize also freed his feet, leaned on Hugo's shoulders, and then stretched his feet out straight, "Yes, you can 'use' a friend." Charlize leaned on Hugo. On the body, Hugo was very helpless, "Hey, I'm the one who worked hard, okay?"
Charlize ignored it at all, "I just borrowed my shoulders. Besides, most of my back is leaning on the sofa, okay!" After adjusting his position and relaxing his slightly numb feet, Charlize said this. Then he said, "You know, you can't drive, what about tomorrow's trip?"
"Los Angeles is a city with a lot of taxis." Hugo was not worried at all, and then nodded Charlize's forehead, "Also, it's not that I can't drive, I just don't want to." About the car accident Charlize, Alex, they all know some things, but they didn't ask in depth.
"I know, taxis are very convenient. I was just thinking, maybe you need a friend." Charlize slapped Hugo's hand off hard, and the contact between the palm and the back of the hand made a crisp, somewhat unbelievable sound, The shock could be heard in the entire living room, causing both Hugo and Charlize to grin.
Both of them looked at each other angrily, but when they saw each other's glowing red skin, they couldn't help but feel amused and laughed at the same time. Charlize rubbed his palms hard and leaned back on Hugo's shoulders, "Maybe, Alex and I can accompany you to the premiere tomorrow, you know, to make you look like you won't be in front of the media. So lonely."
"Hehe, aren't you worried that the media will create scandals between you and me?" Although Charlize and Hugo are friends, they have never officially appeared in front of the media. The main reason is to avoid scandals between them. , that neither Charlize nor Carl wanted her to be noticed by the media in this way.
Charlize shrugged, "I'll tell the reporter, we're just friends, and that's the truth. I'm here as your friend. As for what they want, there's no way." Charlize felt the rain Guo's eyes fell on his shoulders, he raised his head slightly and glanced at Hugo, and then saw Hugo smiled and looked away. At this moment, the eyes crossed, but there was a warm tacit understanding, which made Charlize's mouth twitch. smiled.
When Alex came out of the shower, this was what he saw. Hugo leaned on the sofa, put his feet on the coffee table, and lay lazily; while Charlize leaned his head on Hugo's shoulder Up, the whole person occupied the entire sofa upright, and the two of them were leaning against each other like this, chatting with laughter. Such a quiet scene was unbearable to disturb, and Alex couldn't help but relax a little when he was about to fall.
But Charlize's loud voice ruined the tender moment, "Alex? Would you like to attend the premiere together tomorrow? You know, as a friend."
This made Alex chuckle, then stepped on his slippers and walked into the hall, kicked Hugo's left foot, and sat down directly on the sofa block, "Of course, why not?"
