The next day, Li Ao got up early and went out to train at the Memorial Stadium.
The apartment was decorated with a Christmas atmosphere, but the whole apartment was deserted. A large Christmas tree stood at the door of the apartment, but there were only a few wishing cards hanging on it.
Most of the people living here are students, and most of them are not international students. Some are local students living alone, and some are students from other cities and other states who come to Los Angeles to study.
Yesterday afternoon, most people had left their apartments and gone home for Christmas.
He was also lonely in the apartment, so he chose to sweat alone on the court.
It's a pity that even the old man is gone, and he doesn't even have a chatty companion.
Sometimes, training alone without anyone around is pretty good. When he was practicing step-back shooting, he practiced a few times and felt something was not right. He could sit down and think about it based on the basic step-back skills taught by Xavier Johnson. After thinking about it, he felt that it was okay. Try the training method, and then train without worrying about the trainer being unhappy if you think about it for too long, and there is no interruption from the old man's casual thoughts.
After spending a day at the training ground, he painfully paid the patrolling security guard $5 and asked him to help with a catching and shooting training task. After Li Ao returned to the apartment, he was thinking about Christmas Eve, which is considered the European and American New Year. For a few dishes, the hospital assistant aunt was not around, so she could secretly open a bottle of wine in the storage room and drink it.
But being alone in the desert, he was too lazy to cook and was going to go out to find a place to eat.
There were not many shops open near the community, so he drove out to find a place to eat. The shops were open and he didn't want to stop.
He understood that it was no wonder that some people liked to drive when they were in a bad mood, with the car windows open and the cold wind blowing, and the melancholy that was not too much quickly receded.
Unknowingly, he came to the seaside. When he reached the sea, he felt that it was time to go back and get something to eat. He retreated from melancholy and became hungry.
He turned around and drove home. When he looked at the rearview mirror on both sides, he saw a car parked on the side of the road with the hood open and a good-looking woman standing in front of the car.
He stopped the car and looked over curiously.
It wasn't that he was interested in women with good figures, as he could see beautiful women with good figures every day, but that the woman was holding a wrench here and there, and she was getting more and more irritable.
As a Chinese, how can I not watch this excitement?
He was curious, is this how cars are repaired? Why does it feel like the engine is going to be smashed?
After looking behind him, there were no cars, and the beach was really quiet tonight. He reversed the car and came to the front of the broken down car, got out of the car and asked: "Hi, beauty, do you need help... Are you Jessica Alba?" "
Li Ao looked at the face of the woman who turned around, and was so surprised that his voice rose a bit.
The Jessica Alba I saw in the movie was dressed very coolly. The back view I just saw showed off her figure, but she wore jeans and long sleeves, so her figure was on display, but she couldn’t see her face at all. It's that sexy girl.
Jessica had already noticed the stopped car, and she was quite scared at first, but when she saw the face of the person who got out of the car...she became less scared instantly.
How could this handsome guy be a bad guy?
Seeing that the other party recognized her, Jessica was in a good mood. She put on her celebrity air, pouted towards the front of the car and said, "You see, this car is disobedient and won't start."
Li Ao nodded and said, "That's it. No wonder you want to hit it."
Jessica: (・-・)?
Li Ao decided to help: "It's hard to blow up the engine with your little wrench. I have a hammer in the trunk. Do you need it?"
Jessica: (•́へ•́╬)
She was wrong, she was really wrong.
Why do you think this guy is a good person?
So angry!
I used to be angry when the car broke down, but now I am even more angry!
If it weren't for how handsome this boy was, she would have wanted to punch him with excitement like a gangster.
(╬￣俣)＝○# (￣#)３￣)
Li Ao suddenly convulsed. He seemed to have said something very unkind again. How could he do this to a beautiful woman?
Better help first!
He asked: "Is it possible that you are repairing the car?"
Jessica asked unhappily: "Can't you see?"
"It's hard to see... You don't know how to repair a car, right? If you move around like this and smash it around, you can damage it even if it's not broken. This car is really pitiful."
Jessica said this sarcastically: "I want you to take care of it!"
Why are you so fierce? Okay, it's really fierce.
Li Ao suggested seriously: "You'd better call a tow truck. If you move around again, the car will really be destroyed."
Jessica pulled down the hood with a 'bang' sound, leaned against the front of the car and said, "Do I look like a fool? Of course I called a tow truck, but the person who answered the phone said that the tow truck crew was closed today and they had to pay extra to help. I tow the truck."
"Then you agreed to increase the money?"
"How is that possible? I bought insurance! I won't pay more, I will sue them!"
Li Ao:-_-||
Jessica said angrily: "What's that look in your eyes? It's just you rich people who spend money to solve every problem and let them take advantage of it. This is what they should do. Why should I ask for more money?"
"A rich person?" Li Ao asked confused: "I am a poor student, how short-sighted do you have to be to call me a rich person? Obviously you celebrities are the rich people."
Jessica looked at the car driven by Li Ao, then looked up at Li Ao, her eyes saying: Are you kidding me? Poor students all drive cars like this, am I a beggar?
Noticing the other party's gaze, Li Ao explained: "I borrowed this car. My teacher went home for Christmas and was worried that there would be no bus for me to go to the arena, so he lent me the car to drive for a few days."
Jessica Alba: [・_・?]
She took a look at Li Ao's clothes. It was true that the clothes and pants were all cheap products. The most attractive thing about him was his face.
But...it's so strange! Don’t boys of this age always pretend to be fat even if they are poor?
She became interested in the boy in front of her, he was very special.
She said: "Who said that being a star means you must be rich? I didn't buy a second-hand car. It was scrapped after only driving it for a few days. The damn salesperson said it was for personal use by a housewife who doesn't know how to drive. The car is like brand new, liar!”
"Oh! It's just like the graphics card used by college girls, Jiujiuxin. I've been tricked too."
“What is a graphics card?”
"A computer accessory, the unscrupulous businessman who makes the graphics card deliberately inflates the price, so we poor students can only buy second-hand ones."
"oh……"
This involves Jessica's knowledge blind spot. She doesn't understand it and is not very interested.
Eh? Where have you seen this face before?
She looked at the boy in front of her again. He must be two meters tall, right?
She suddenly remembered the news she had seen late the night before yesterday. The Chinese student who wanted to make the Trojans great was a talented pitcher who could score 33 points in a single NCAA game in just a few months!
She is also a basketball fan, but due to her parents' careers, she has moved around since she was a child. She is not very interested in the so-called 'purest' student basketball. She usually only watches NBA games and doesn't know much about college basketball.
But being in the United States, she also knows the influence of college basketball and occasionally sees college basketball news.
She asked: "Are you that Leo from USC?"
Li Ao was very surprised: "Oh, you know me too? Have I become famous in Hollywood? Do you think I can become an actor?"
"..." Jessica discovered that the boy in front of her might be practicing his face every day. She complained: "If you become an actor, you will definitely become a professional pretty boy, but it doesn't matter. You definitely won't feel like being a vase." A shameful thing.”
"Okay, let's stop chatting. It's already so late. Let's do this. You put the vehicle trouble sign there and wait until the tow truck crew goes to work and then ask them to tow it away. If you are unlucky and get towed away by the traffic police, you can't help it. You can always You can't wait here until they go to work, right? If you encounter gangsters or something, you will be in danger. This is Los Angeles. I'll take you back first. Is your hotel or home in Los Angeles? Make a decision quickly, I'm sick I'm hungry and want to go home for dinner." Li Ao said and rubbed his stomach. He was really hungry.
"I booked a hotel," Jessica said in a very unfriendly tone. After hearing what she said earlier, she thought that the boy was still a nice guy even though he was rude. But when she heard what happened later, she was angry again. She refused and said, "But, you give me a gift?" If I go back to the hotel, news of our date will be all over the sky tomorrow."
Li Ao shook his head and said, "No, you're not that popular yet."
Jessica: 눈_눈.
This guy looks good in everything, he's handsome, tall, he doesn't look bad, his eyes are clear... he just has an extra mouth!
Wait, it's not that popular yet... Jessica asked in a teasing tone: "Do you think I will be popular in the future?"
Li Ao nodded: "You are good-looking, have a good figure, and have good acting skills. It makes no sense if you are not popular."
He can actually say nice things!
It's incredible.
Seeing that the other party seemed to still want to stay here, Li Ao said: "I really want to leave, are you sure you don't want me to take you back to the hotel? By the way, don't you celebrities have an agent? Call him to pick you up. "
Jessica was in a better mood after hearing the nice words, but she felt unhappy again: "I just had a fight with my agent, so I drove out by myself and didn't want to call him."
"Why?"
"Why...did you say why we were quarreling? He pushed me away from the scene I just took!"
"This... there must be a reason, right?"
"Because the producer wanted me to appear naked in the scene, but he refused to let me do that. Come on, it's a big-budget art film. Do you know how rare an opportunity like this is? What's wrong with making some sacrifices for art?"
"Yeah……"
"Do you think it's wrong to devote yourself to art?" Jessica's tone was very exciting.
Li Ao shook his head: "No, I don't think it's right or wrong. I also like to watch beauties and sexy figures when watching movies. The cooler the clothes, the better. It would be better if it is a big beauty star who doesn't wear any clothes. I appreciate it very much. It’s a so-called art... But if you are my friend, that’s a different story. I think your agent treats you as a friend, not as a tool to make money.”
"..."
Jessica was silent, not only because of Li Ao's words, but she also heard that Li Ao's tone quickly became cold.
Although Li Ao's previous words made her half-dead angry, he was always very enthusiastic. He said he wanted to leave, but he didn't leave immediately. He could really tell that he was worried about her safety.
Needless to say, the feeling was quite warm in retrospect, completely different from the 'enthusiasm' of those who saw her and wanted to swallow her.
Li Ao didn't talk nonsense this time, but he couldn't feel the warm feeling at all.
She seemed to hear a little disgust.
Wait, does this boy think of her as the kind of person who is willing to do any dirty thing just to be popular and famous?
When she said that it was better not to wear any clothes, she didn't think there was anything wrong with the other party, but she felt that the other party thought there was something wrong with her.
Normally she didn't care what others said, but this time she felt inexplicably aggrieved.
"If you want to continue waiting, just wait. I'll leave first." Li Ao said, walking to the car and opening the door.
Jessica panicked. Before, the boy just talked and didn't move. This time he really left directly. She asked with a hint of crying: "Are you really going to leave me here?"
Li Ao paused for a moment to get into the car, and his tone was very helpless: "You didn't let me take you to the hotel, and you didn't call your agent. What else do you want from me? How about I go back and sign up for you?" police?"
Jessica really wanted to cry, who is this!
Li Ao's heart softened when he saw that the other party's eyes were red and almost watery.
Although he has determined that he will not have any further contact with the future star in front of him, and if he does not become friends, he will be able to watch blockbusters without any psychological burden in the future. There should be no abridged version in the United States...
But at this moment, he still didn't have the heart to abandon the other party and leave.
Li Ao felt that he was really a good man who had been cultivated for ten generations. If it had been anyone else, he would have pushed the accelerator a long way.
After thinking about it, he asked tentatively: "How about going to the apartment where I live? There is an empty guest room in my teacher's house, which she plans to accommodate for guests. My mother lived there last time when she came to the United States. I'll give her a call when I get back."
Jessica didn't think this boy had any bad intentions for this suggestion. She really felt that if she refused again, the other party would definitely leave her here.
She asked: "Is your teacher a woman?"
Li Ao patted the roof of the car and said, "Otherwise, this red car can't be driven by a man."
Jessica hesitated for a moment, then turned around and went to the back seat to take out her luggage bag. She came to the passenger side of the car driven by Li Ao, opened the door and got in.
It's impossible to call the agent, at least not tonight. The movie is another matter. We just had a quarrel in the afternoon, so she has to call for help now. She doesn't want to lose face!
Li Ao curled his lips and said nothing. He got in the car and started the engine and drove home.
It's quite troublesome to take someone back. Let this future star leave early tomorrow morning to avoid more troublesome things happening.
After the car started moving, neither of the two people in the car spoke.
In this atmosphere, Jessica felt a little relieved.
Well, she found out that she was really disliked.
But she won't explain anything, at least not now, she has to keep her face!
Twenty minutes later, the two came to the downstairs of a luxury apartment building.
After parking the car, Li Ao took the luggage bag from Jessica and led the latter into the building.
Jessica couldn't help complaining: "Do you really live here? I thought you just parked your car here and said you were not a rich international student?"
Li Ao wondered: "What does it have to do with whether I live here or not?"
Jessica asked: "The rent here is not cheap, right?"
"300 yuan a month is not cheap."
Jessica's voice suddenly rose: "300 yuan a month? Is the landlord a relative of yours? Or did you block the gun for him?"
"The landlord is a friend of my teacher. She helped me negotiate the price. I heard that the landlord owns a lot of real estate. He didn't take my rent seriously. He treated me as a friend. After all, I am also a student at the University of Southern California. "
"I see……"
Although Jessica thinks there is something strange, she has not studied too much and is a standard academic. She yearns for a university campus, but she is not yet qualified to go to university based on fame. She thinks that college students from famous universities may be It will be an advantage in some aspects.
A little envious.
She is actually not stupid, and learns things quickly. When she first entered elementary school, she got A's in every grade. However, her parents' jobs often required them to move. She changed schools three times in one semester of elementary school. She got tired of studying and became a loser. , dropped out of school after primary school.
Only when I grow up do I regret that I didn't study hard at the beginning. It takes more time than others to read a script and understand the characters, but there is no use regretting it.
After embarking on the path of being an actor, I can only keep going. Fortunately, in the past two or three years, I have gained some fame through my outstanding performance in several TV series, and my acting career has begun to go smoothly.
Li Ao took Jessica to the elevator, went to the 12th floor, went to the innermost part of the corridor, and opened the door of the hospital assistant's aunt's house.
Jessica followed her into the house and took a look when she was changing her slippers. The shoe cabinet in the entrance hall on the right was very large. It could hold hundreds of pairs of feet. She glanced at the boy just now when he was getting his new slippers. There was a pile of shoes that I bought and probably never worn, and they were placed very neatly.
On the left is the basin. This boy washes his hands after entering the room. He is very hygienic.
The living room is very large. The transparent curtain should be the kitchen. You can see the refrigerator. In addition, there are 4 doors. If one is a bathroom, there are 3 rooms. Judging from the area of the living room, the room should be quite big... Are university teachers so rich?
This location, this luxurious apartment, living in such a large suite?
Look at this boy's face again... Could he really be a pretty boy?
