Four Hundred and Thirty Seventh After the Ceremony
In Katy Perry's classic single "California-Gurls," she sings:
"I know a place where the grass is green and warm and wet and wild and the water smells like magic, have a little alcohol and juice and relax under the palm trees and boy, twist your neck and spy on us because They can't help but peek at us. You can travel the world as you please, but you can't get close to this golden ocean, and once you join our party, you'll fall in love."
Once, the Eagles' legendary masterpiece "California-Hotel (California-Hotel)" attracted countless people to explore this hot land. This single is still one of the most successful and important musical works in North American history; now some people joke It can be said that "California Girl" is the "Hotel California" of the 21st century, because he has outlined the most beautiful vision of paradise imaginable.
But people who live in California will tell you that it's not imagination, it's real life.
Sun, sand, palm trees; bikinis, surfboards, cocktails.
This is indeed life in California, the whole world is vast, as if you can have endless sunshine and stars as long as you open your arms.
The bright golden sunlight penetrates the tall palm trees and falls on the spacious and transparent open space. Even in February in the northern hemisphere, you can still feel the summer heat surging in the air, or have a drink by the swimming pool with a glass of cocktail. Sunbathing, or driving a convertible car all the way along the coastline, it seems that this is the best way to open up life.
Of course, there is another possibility, just like Maxim is now——
Wearing sunglasses, lying on a beach chair, basking in the sun, wearing a pair of beach shorts, and an unbuttoned floral shirt, you can see the chest covered with tanning aids, and the skin with a wheat-colored luster is looming, but at this time he has fallen into In a semi-comatose state, even if you are sunburned, you will not wake up.
"Maxim, you're about to show the marks of your swimming trunks."
A joking voice sounded in his ears. Maxim, who usually pays the most attention to his personal image, frowned at this time, not to mention rebuttals and excuses, even the movement of raising his hand seemed lazy, the pain of hangover made him Now I can't lift a single finger, like a dead body.
At this time, Maxim was not the only "corpse" lying beside the swimming pool. Cliff was also in a half-dream and half-awake state. He barely lifted his sunglasses, and as a result, he let go in a panic like a vampire seeing the sun. The sunglasses drooped down again.
Seeing this, Alice couldn't help but chuckled. Just seeing the lifeless scene in front of her, she could imagine how crazy their party was last night.
Maybe Ronan is the only exception.
Ronan was sitting under a parasol beside him, enjoying his breakfast. Not only did he not suffer from a hangover, but he also looked contented.
Alice sat down opposite Ronan, "Where's Ollie? Still sleeping?"
"Ollie has guests." Ronan's understated words seemed meaningful.
Facts have proved that Ollie did not have an accident last night. Not only did he not have any accidents, but he also completely enjoyed it and enjoyed an unparalleled night. Not to mention Ronan, it was even more colorful than Maxim.
When he came back in the middle of the night, he woke up Ronan, who had fallen into a drowsy sleep, and after a frenzy, Ronan pitifully went to sleep on the sofa in the living room of the hotel, leaving the bedroom to Ollie—fortunately Yes, Atlantic Records, in order to celebrate the King of One Day's victory in making history last night, upgraded them to a suite, so they have a living room, otherwise Ronan would have slept in the corridor with a pillow in his arms.
And the headline on the front page of "Entertainment Weekly" today is, "Grammy's biggest winner is forced to sleep in the corridor. Is it a moral decline or a distortion of human nature?"
Alice was still a little stunned, and it took a half a beat to react, and then she couldn't help laughing, "Maxim, did you have no guests last night?"
Maxim couldn't help it immediately, "My night was more exciting than you imagined!" After yelling loudly, he felt a dull pain in his brain, so he couldn't continue speaking, but raised his middle finger towards Alice to express Responding, Cliff lying next to him did not respond, as if he had fallen asleep again.
Alice giggled and rolled back and forth, then turned to look at Ronan, "Your party night looks very ordinary."
Although Ronan has never been a party animal, last night was special after all, and Alice thought Ronan would have a good time.
Ronan couldn't help laughing, "No hangover and no guests, it doesn't mean it's not exciting enough."
Alena's figure came to mind again, and the smile at the corner of her mouth slowly fell into her eyes.
Alice immediately caught the anomaly, "Oh, wait, it seems interesting, what happened last night?"
Ronan was slightly embarrassed: Did he act so obviously? To be seen through at a glance? The thoughts in my mind surged quickly, flashed by, and then quickly changed the subject to cover up my true thoughts.
"Yes, a lot of interesting things happened last night, it really opened up a whole new world, I met Scooter and had a close encounter; I met Swift and had a funny conversation..."
Then, Ronan noticed Alice's excited eyes and couldn't help laughing happily.
"Alice, I know that in your eyes, I am very attractive, but it's not like a random person will fall in love with me at first sight."
Ronan's self-joking words successfully diverted Alice's attention, and she immediately made a gesture of vomiting and waved her hands repeatedly, "I haven't eaten breakfast yet, I think last night's dinner should stay where it should be. Okay." To her, Ronan is not a man at all, okay?
My dear, he is my dear! In Alice's eyes, Ronan has absolutely no charm at all!
Looking at Alice's appearance, Ronan burst out laughing, didn't continue to argue, and continued, "We also met Chris Martin who was drunk, God, when he turned and left, he vomited faintly. In the dark, that scene can be seen when it is a college fraternity."
The corner of Alice's mouth was slightly pursed, and her expression showed a playful gesture.
Ronan immediately caught it, "Why, what inside information did you hear?"
Alice thought for a while, "It's just a rumor, but it's no longer a secret in the circle. Chris and Gwyneth are separating, and Gwyneth wants to get a divorce. Things are already showing signs. TMZ's paparazzi smelled it. , is now being tracked. If you chat with reporters, remember not to bring this up."
Not for the gossip, but to stop the gossip and prevent Ronan from accidentally revealing Chris's secret.
Ronan suddenly realized that many of Chris's off-track actions last night had a reasonable explanation, and if he looked at it now, he would not be so surprised.
However, this is still not the end.
