Superstar

Chapter 17: Oolong acquaintance

"Coffee." Charlize tapped her slender finger on the coffee cup in front of Hugo, with a bright smile on her mouth, "Could it be possible to eat here?" Charlize's words were again embarrassed. Guo once saw the eyes of the two people come into contact with each other, and couldn't help laughing.

   Hugo has forgotten that it is 1992. Although Starbucks was founded in 1971, it was not acquired by Howard Schultz until 1987, which started the dynasty of global chain. Starbucks today is far from being as huge as a dozen years later, and can only be regarded as a fast-growing chain of coffee shops in the United States. Therefore, Charlize's evaluation of Starbucks is very correct.

Although Hugo had embarrassed one after another just now, he quickly recovered, allowing all the embarrassment and embarrassment to be quietly resolved in the smile at the corner of his mouth, and gently bit his lower lip, "Of course, coffee." After nodding, Hugo raised his eyes and looked directly at Charlize, "I wonder if I can buy you a cup of coffee?"

   Charlize looked at Hugo’s clear eyes like lake water, the smile at the corner of his mouth paused slightly, and then it bloomed more brilliantly, "Yes. Mamba, no sugar, thank you."

   "Mamba? Excellent choice." Hugo stood up with a smile, nodded slightly to Charlize, and then walked towards the store. Mamba coffee (Mandheling. Brazil), this is a coffee blended with Mandheling coffee and Brazilian coffee. It is aromatic and delicious, but strong and flavorful. Charlize has not added any sugar, so you can see some Charlie. Here's the character.

   After Hugo walked into the store, he stood at the door and let out a long sigh of relief, calming his mind. Hugo realized that whether it was seeing Brad during the last audition or encountering Charlize who was still rolling in the modeling industry by accident today, he seemed a bit fussy, completely like a crazy star chaser.

Although Hugo knew it was inevitable, after all, he was still in the underground rock music industry in China a few days ago, and today he saw people who could only be seen on the screen one after another, which is really hard to adapt. , But Hugo also knows that he must adapt, because he is now rolling in this industry, and will see more legendary characters in the future. If every time he sees a big star, he will be surprised. .

   stepping forward again, Hugo walked to the counter and ordered a cup of Mamba for Charlize. After thinking about it, he stood by and waited without going out. Hugo took the coffee and walked out until the clerk made the coffee and filled it with paper cups.

   Pushing open the brown glass door, Hugo saw Charlize sitting next to the coffee table at a glance. At this moment Charlize was supporting his chin with his right hand, and a long golden hair slid smoothly down his shoulders. The palm trees lined up in the boulevard were climbing dense ivy, and the sun penetrated the lush branches and fell down. Charlize's body was covered with golden gauze with shards of golden light. Charlize in front of her was like a girl of the elven tribe living quietly in the woods, smart and beautiful.

   Hugo can even clearly see Charlize's slender eyelashes like butterfly wings flapping gently in the sun. The shadows of the hair tips, eyelashes, and bridge of the nose make her facial features become more three-dimensional. Suddenly, she seemed to perceive something, raised her eyes, and when she turned her head, she saw Hugo standing in front of the Starbucks, her eyelashes raised, and the laziness between her eyebrows made a halo in the sun, and the corners of her mouth The smile was outlined in this way, and people suddenly held their breath.

   Actually, Charlize is only seventeen years old, and he is not the beautiful **** in Hugo's memory at all. Charlize is still relatively young now, and the girly temperament makes her look more grounded. But at this time, Charlize's facial features have basically been opened, and the charm of the eyebrows has some power, and it is indeed very beautiful in the reflection of the golden light.

   No wonder Carl has to give Charlize his business card anyway! Hugo sighed again.

   But this time Hugo's reaction did not stop. Seeing Charlize's smile, he responded with a smile, then slightly raised the coffee in his hand, and walked towards the seat.

Charlize looked at Hugo in front of him, his tall posture, stretched muscles, and handsome face were almost impossible to look directly under the dazzling sunlight. Those amber eyes seemed to be two clear eyes. The bottom of the lake was shining in the sunlight projected without any hindrance. When the smile on the corner of the mouth was outlined, the warmth and brilliance of the heart bloomed like this. Charlize couldn't help being a little surprised.

   "Hey, your coffee." Hugo looked at Charlize's dazed expression, put the coffee in front of her, called out with a smile, and then sat down opposite Charlize.

  Charlize's gaze followed Hugo down, "Did anyone say you are charming?"

   "You are the first one today." Hugo's answer made Charlize laugh backwards, like a lily in full bloom.

Charlize picked up the coffee and took a sip. The bitter touch of the Mamba coffee bloomed on the tip of her tongue. She could not help lowering her eyes and savoring it. Then she looked at it again with satisfaction. To the handsome man on the opposite side, "So, you are an actor?" After asking, Charlize realized his impoliteness, and quickly added, "I came to Los Angeles not long ago. To be precise, I haven't been in the United States for long. I don’t know much. I heard Karl say your name just now, so..."

Although Hugo doesn’t know much about English, he can still hear that Charlize’s English is slightly different from the accent he has recently heard. Think about Charlize’s South African and English is her second language. Afrikaans is her mother tongue, so Charlize’s explanation is not uncommon.

"It's okay, it's okay." Hugo showed a light smile, the gentleness of his eyes gleaming in the sunlight, "Yes, I'm an actor, but my current grades are not very good, even if you come here. No matter how long it is, I probably still don’t know me.” This is also the first time that no one mentioned the Golden Raspberry Award in front of him after Hugo crossed over. This is really great. "By the way, my name is Hugo Lancaster."

"Charlize Theron." The little girl in front of her looked at Hugo's warm smile, her smile softened, "I only came to the United States a year ago and originally wanted to be a ballerina in New York. , It’s a pity that I hurt my knee. My mother asked me to come to Los Angeles to try my luck. I am now working as a model."

   Although there are only a few words, Hugo can hear the hardships of Charlize's life in the United States. This is also the biggest feeling that Hugo has experienced in this short period of time after crossing over. Don’t look at the stars on the big screen, not to mention how much effort it takes for these actors to get under the spotlight, just say that there are tens of thousands of actors in the city of Los Angeles who are struggling to be able to perform a work. Struggling, you know how cruel this industry is. Models are more difficult than actors.

   "Trust me, I'm not a bad person, you can tell me everything about you, trust me." Hugo's ridicule made the weight of Charlize's words disappear suddenly, and both of them laughed softly.

   "So, did you know the agent just now?" Charlize also realized that she and Hugo had only met for less than ten minutes, and her self-introduction did reveal too much information, so she immediately changed the subject.

"Oh, yes, I know him. His name is Karl Earl. He is an agent." Hugo pretended to say deeply, and Charlize waited for the following with an expression of expectation, but Hugo shrugged." Isn't that enough?" It turned out that he didn't know anything about Karl. Charlize knew that he had been teased by Hugo, biting his lower lip with an angry and funny expression, making Hugo completely happy.

"It was just a joke." Hugo said quickly. He took out Carl's business card from his pocket and read it carefully. "Oh, he is an agent of the International Innovation Management Corporation. That's great. I am also here. A company. If you need it, I can help you inquire and verify his identity."

Charlize also looked at Karl's business card in her hand, nodded and said, "Really? That would be great." Then she raised her head and looked at Hugo again, "I mean, since I'm in reality I can’t be a ballerina in my life, maybe I can achieve it on the big screen, can I?"

   Hugo pursed his lips, "I doubt it." Charlize was taken aback, showing a surprised expression. Hugo immediately laughed, "Unless you are willing to use a stand-in, don't you? So I think you should try to become an excellent actor, which is more realistic."

Charlize immediately understood what Hugo meant. Even for a ballerina on the big screen, her injured knee is still a problem. Instead of holding such an unrealistic dream, it is better to see reality and redefine the goal of her life. , This is more realistic.

After understanding this, Charlize looked at Hugo in different eyes. She couldn't help but look deeply at the handsome man in front of her. Hugo was seen a little abnormally, and she looked down at her shirt, "I don't have Drip coffee on your clothes, right?"

Charlize laughed again and shook his head, "No, no, you are fine." After laughing, Charlize went on to say, "It's just that you are different from most men." When other men discussed these issues, only They will blindly flatter and agree, and will not really think, because their lower body takes up their heads. But Hugo was different. He was always serious during the conversation, especially the gentle eyes.

   "This is a good thing?" Hugo deliberately showed a worried expression, "You know, I was embarrassed when we met just now. If I didn't change my impression after the conversation, it would be a very bad thing."

   These words made Charlize laugh again. She no longer remembers how many times she smiled during the conversation between the two people. "Who knows? I can't guarantee it."

Hugo showed an annoyed expression, but the words that followed were irrelevant, "That's it, you can tell me the phone number, and I will call you after I have inquired about Karl. ."

   Charlize looked at Hugo in front of him, and his smile bloomed more and more brilliantly.
