After dinner, John Landis originally wanted to drink coffee with Eric and talk about other things. However, when he saw the figures of the two girls sitting not far behind Eric, John Landis took the initiative to leave in an 'understanding' manner. When he left, he winked at Eric and did A cheering gesture made Eric dumbfounded. He knows that John Landis must have misunderstood, but there is no way to explain this kind of thing, otherwise it must be getting darker and darker.
After John left, Eric greeted the waiter. After paying the bill, he turned his head and looked at Julia and Elizabeth not far away. If he wanted to leave, he must pass by the two girls. The possibility of not being recognized was almost to zero. Thinking of Julia's drunken nonsense that night, Eric felt a little helpless, and now he couldn't tell what was going on with Julia, whether the girl had real feelings for him, or because of the Stockholm Complex. What about the surrender mentality caused by the disease
But one thing is certain, the girl obviously wants to get rid of this emotion very much. For Eric, he has no shortage of women, although he will do everything possible to keep the woman he likes by his side. But Julia wasn't exactly his type, so he didn't want to get involved with girls.
The waiter brought the change and the receipt, and Eric paid the tip before standing up, 10◇, and walking directly to Julia's table.
Since you can't avoid it, let's say hello.
As Eric walked in, Elizabeth was the first to spot him. The girl froze for a moment, but quietly picked up the coffee to hide the surprised expression on her face. Therefore, Julia did not notice the strange expression on Elizabeth's expression, she was still chirping and talking softly, looking very excited.
Although Julia is three years older than herself. But when you are by your side. The girl has always been a little reserved. Rarely do you talk so much. So Eric was curious about what the girl was talking about, and made a silent gesture to Elizabeth, and Eric came quietly behind Julia.
"...the producer said to me, Julia, we will be shooting in the studio the whole time, even if it is a live action, I can use a stand-in, and finish the film comfortably, and. If you are not satisfied with the script , you can modify it yourself. I was very excited when I heard it. They ran to a small town in the south, came to me with such sincerity, and even offered a high price of 5 million US dollars. I felt that I had never been so big. Take it seriously. So I asked them to send the script over to have a look, but I can't stand the name of the heroine. Can you imagine, Liz, they named the heroine Vivienne. My God , The meaning of following the trend is too obvious. I suggested that the producer change the name first. The other party said that the plot can be changed at will, but the name cannot be changed. He also told me a lot of such benefits. I think of him Some things I once told me about following the trend, I just... "
Listening to Julia Brabla's rapid speaking, Eric, who was standing behind the girl, had a slight smile on his mouth, while Elizabeth, who was sitting opposite Julia, intercepted the girl's words with crooked eyes, and asked knowingly: "Julia, who is that 'he' you speak of?"
Julia seemed to be a little thirsty for what she said, so she took a few sips of juice before saying, "Oh, you know that, even though that guy is an asshole, many of the things he said make sense."
"Oh..." Elizabeth raised her chin and glanced at Eric who was standing behind the girl with his hands in his trouser pockets: "So, you have completely got rid of that guy's shadow?"
"Of course," Julia waved her little hand without hesitation, and raised her voice slightly, "I've pulled that bastard's shadow out of his head, crumpled it up, stuffed it into the toilet, and flushed it away."
Flutter—
Elizabeth couldn't bear it anymore, covered her mouth in a panic and threw herself on the dining table, shrugging her shoulders and grinning muffledly.
The diners around couldn't help turning their eyes to this side when they heard the movement. Of course, some people looked at Eric behind Julia.
Julia would be a little retarded if she couldn't feel anything anymore. Eric could clearly see that the girl's waist straightened involuntarily, and she seemed to want to turn her head, but her neck was stuck there as if it was rusted.
"It makes me sad to hear you say that," Eric shrugged and joked, and stepped forward to sit down on the empty seat between the two girls.
When Julia heard Eric's voice, her complexion began to change rapidly. When Eric sat down next to her, the girl's illusion was completely broken, and her eyes stayed on Eric's face for a few seconds. She suddenly shrank her neck and bent her waist, as if she was about to curl up into a chair to hide herself, and explained in a low voice: "Ai... Eric, I... I'm not... that...meaning, I... "
Seeing the girl's embarrassment, Eric smiled and was about to play some more jokes with Julia. The girl squeaked a few times, but stood up suddenly: "I... I'm going first."
After speaking, the girl fled the restaurant in a panic.
Eric watched Julia's back disappearing speechlessly, wondering if he was really that scary
Patted Elizabeth who was still lying on the dining table: "Hey, Liz, don't laugh, watch out for cramps."
Only then did Elizabeth raise her head, her face was flushed, and the dimples still hung on her cheeks. She glanced at the opposite side and asked, "Hey, where's Julia?"
Eric curled his lips: "It's not that you played a prank and drove Julia away."
Elizabeth glared at Eric not to be outdone: "How can you blame me, you hinted me to keep quiet."
"I'm just curious. I want to hear what Julia is talking about. Did you bring her into the pit?"
Elizabeth turned her head and looked at the door, but she couldn't find Julia's voice, so she said, "Okay, I'll apologize to her later. But in the end, it's all your fault. I took her halfway around the world , Julia has almost forgotten about you, and you insist on showing up at this time."
There is really no way to reason with a woman who is messing around.
Eric thought helplessly, so he had to change the subject and said, "Aren't you still in school? It's September now, so it's time for school to start?"
"I have completed all the courses that I need to take, and the last year is to do my graduation thesis and social practice." Elizabeth briefly introduced a sentence, and then said: "I said before, my graduation thesis is about you How about the analysis of several movies, big director, can you provide me with some 'internal' information?"
Eric did not agree, but asked, "You should have gotten a lot of information from Julia these days, right?"
Elizabeth showed a helpless expression: "I'm really curious about what happened between you two. Julia is already crazy, and there is no cure. Although she wants to kill you, she can say it It’s all good things, it doesn’t feel true at all.”
"Maybe I'm like that," Eric said with a smile.
"Impossible," Elizabeth shook her head decisively.
Eric wondered: "Hey, Liz, I said, are you going to study me, or my movies?"
"There are all of them," Elizabeth said without any concealment, "I'm very interested in everything about you."
"I remember warning you..."
Before Eric could say it, Elizabeth was like a cat whose tail was stepped on. She stared at her beautiful eyes and interrupted Eric's words: "Bah, rascal!"
"Okay, okay," Eric spread his hands helplessly: "I have also said hello, and I will leave if it's okay, remember to take Julia back to Los Angeles early, Kapoor was so angry that Julia's hair turned white many."
Elizabeth rolled her eyes at Eric: "Nonsense, don't think I don't know, Julia's manager has a bald head, and his hair is even gray..."
"I'm just making an analogy," Eric stood up indifferently: "Anyway, you just remember."
Seeing that Eric was about to leave, the girl immediately grabbed the man's skirt: "Hey, why are you in such a hurry, since we met, let's sit down and chat more, talk about your movie."
Eric watched the girl clutching his skirt tightly regardless of her image, so he sat down again and said, "Liz, let me teach you, in fact, what you have to do is reverse analysis of the known results, the method It's very simple, you just have to praise it vigorously, just like what those newspapers and media do, list a lot of advantages of the movie, praise it to the sky, and guarantee that your thesis will get an A. "
After saying this, Eric remembered the treasure appraisal programs he had seen in his previous life. It was not necessary for those experts to finally tell the results, but only relying on the words of those people, he could distinguish the authenticity of the antiques. It's very simple, the real thing, the experts exaggerated it vigorously from the very beginning, such as delicate tire quality and exquisite workmanship, etc., if it is fake, they will directly start to derogate and find flaws. In general, most of the time it is just fooling laymen to watch the fun.
Hearing Eric's perfunctory words, Elizabeth rolled her eyes in dissatisfaction: "Hey, am I that superficial?"
Eric raised his eyebrows and made a look that didn't mean it, and directly made the girl so angry that she wanted to slap the table.
"I... I warn you, if you don't help, I will take Julia to the Australian ranch, so that you can't find anyone to make a movie."
Hearing the girl's childish words, Eric couldn't help laughing and said, "It's up to you, as long as Julia is willing."
Eric didn't want to get entangled with Elizabeth, so he stood up and walked out of the restaurant. The girl quickly waved her hand to the waiter to pay the bill, and chased her out. (To be continued..)
