……no next time?
What does it mean?
Before Lawrence could chew Gawain's words carefully, she immediately noticed that Gawain was about to leave again. This time before Gawain turned around, she said first, "There will be a party after the premiere tonight. Tom prepared it, and David will also come there, why don’t you come with him?”
Gawain shook his head, "Sorry, although I am full of curiosity, but unfortunately, I still need to train tomorrow. As usual, now is the time for me to enter a daze and relax, and then I will prepare to rest. You can imagine being eighty years old My retirement life is probably my work and rest time.”
Phew.
Lawrence was amused by Gawain's vivid words, "If you didn't tell me, I almost forgot that you were a professional player."
Gao Wen's face was full of surprise, "I thought today's performance on the red carpet had proved this point, otherwise, I might have run to the corner and hid."
Obviously, this is complaining that all the other actors are just show-offs. Maybe they are all-powerful superheroes on the big screen, but in real life they are just ordinary people with show-offs, but they don’t know that Gawain’s words have harmed a group of people. , imagine the chaotic scene on the red carpet, and a sense of joy comes to your face.
If you think about the complaints you just made about superhero movies, you will be able to understand more deeply.
"Haha." Lawrence laughed happily again. He didn't realize that his heavy heart had completely relaxed.
But Gao Wen did not stay after all. "In order to avoid being forgotten in the taxi and being caught by the paparazzi due to falling asleep, I still need to leave before dozing off."
After saying that, Gawain had already turned around, but as soon as he took a step forward, he stopped——
Lawrence himself didn't realize it, but his heart suddenly rose high, and an indescribable joy and happiness burst out. He was eager to go forward and talk to Gawain, and his eyes also brightened.
However.
Gawain did not look at Lawrence, but turned to look at the waiter, "Sorry for causing such chaos today, I thought..."
Gawain looked a little embarrassed because he really didn't know what to do with the tip.
In the UK, like the US, these waiters receive a basic salary. Service charges are not included in their salary. Tips are their main source of income.
Strictly speaking, in a restaurant, the waiter's salary may be higher than that of the restaurant manager, because the restaurant manager receives a fixed salary, while the waiter only has the official minimum hourly wage, but all depends on tips. If the restaurant's customer flow If it is high, it is common for waiters to rely on tips to earn more wages.
Gawain knew the importance of tips to those working in the service industry, but he didn't know how to deal with the scene in front of him.
The waiter was also slightly stunned and could not react immediately.
The next second, the waiter saw Gawain starting to search his pants pockets, and then he realized it and waved his hands quickly, "It doesn't matter..."
Unable to continue speaking, the waiter saw that Gawain's face was full of disbelief, so that his voice was stuck, and then he saw Gawain slowly taking out two banknotes from his pants pocket.
cash!
It can be seen from the astonishment and surprise in his eyes that Gawain doesn't know why they appear here.
Gawain was slightly stunned, and after half a beat, he realized that it was probably Tobias. After all, Tobias was already an expert in these situations.
"Ha." Gawain's smile bloomed, "It seems that I don't need to worry anymore. I'm very sorry, and at the same time, I'm also very grateful."
As he spoke, Gawain put two pieces of cash into the waiter's palm——
One hundred pounds in cash, two.
The waiter stared at the banknotes in his palm, his heart turbulent, and the words of rejection were already on his lips, but he saw Gawain making a "shh" gesture again.
It was supposed to be hush money, but it could be seen from the joking and ridicule in Gawain's eyes that this was obviously a well-intentioned "hush", so much so that the smile on the corner of the waiter's mouth couldn't help but rise. , recalling everything that had just happened, my mood became even more exciting.
So, he knew that he shouldn't do this, but he still raised his hand and made a gesture of sealing his mouth with a zipper, indicating that he was willing to keep it secret; then he deliberately wiped the two banknotes, folded them neatly, and stuffed them Putting it in your pocket is like handling "dirty money".
Going back and forth, there is a tacit understanding that you know and I know.
After that, Gawain did not stay any longer, looked at the waiter and Lawrence respectively, turned around and left.
Lawrence:…
She was a little dumbfounded. She didn't think that Gawain went back and forth for tips, nor did she think that the interaction between Gawain and the waiter had a tacit understanding. The words trying to save Gawain surged in her throat, but she couldn't find it. Find a suitable way of expression and spin it over and over again.
Noticing Gawain's smiling greeting, Lawrence quickly returned a smile, but in the end he was unable to speak. Gawain left the bathroom and walked away.
Lawrence stood there blankly, with a look of reluctance in his eyes. He was immersed in his own thoughts and couldn't extricate himself. For a moment, it was difficult to tell what he was thinking about. There were obviously countless thoughts surging in his mind, but It's a mess again, without a clear concept.
"Uh-huh..."
Lawrence was a little annoyed and irritable, and let out a low cry, and then he took a moment to notice that he was not alone.
Although the waiter kept his head lowered, respectfully keeping a low profile and lowering his presence, Lawrence noticed.
The first reaction is that this person witnessed everything that just happened, so does it need to be silenced?
The second reaction is——
This waiter is a man.
"ah!"
Lawrence exclaimed, only then did she realize that she and Gawain had just been standing in the men's bathroom talking for so long?
Moreover, Gawain had already turned around and left, but she still stayed in the men's bathroom, thinking wildly, blushing and palpitating at times, what on earth was she doing!
"Ahem."
Lawrence coughed twice, pretended to be calm, nodded generously to the waiter, and walked away calmly.
Although she remained calm on the surface, her embarrassment could still be seen as a series of small steps seemed to shrink into inches and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
After leaving the men's room, Lawrence finally calmed down——
paparazzi.
The friendly advice to Gawain just now was not nonsense. Lawrence knew that the paparazzi would not give up. They just couldn't get rid of the chewing gum. Whether they wanted to or not, the paparazzi would follow them closely in the next few days, so she needed to stay calm. , otherwise the same situation will happen again.
She needs to be mentally prepared.
After quickly gathering her thoughts, regaining her senses, and looking around, Lawrence quickly walked towards the screening room. She needed to find her agent first.
