Hollywood Secret Garden

Chapter 768 It's Still You Come Here

"Cut!" Angela yelled loudly, and spoke again after the camera stopped rolling: "Remember what I told you before, Hannah? Your emotions are wrong, and it shouldn't be like this."

"Sorry, Angela, can I do it all over again?" Dakota immediately raised her hand obediently.

"Not yet," Angela shook her head, "take a break for 20 minutes, I won't explain it to you this time, you have to figure it out yourself. Also, Christine, you can try to talk to Hannah a few more times , Your performance just now was not very good either."

"I understand, Angela." Christine nodded. Although this girl seemed delicate and quiet, she was very open to going crazy in private. This was what Dakota said.

After everyone dispersed, Angela did not go to the monitor behind the camera to observe as before, but strode to a corner and reached out to pick out the guy hiding behind a certain female employee.

"Your scenes have already been filmed, why are you still here?" Angela looked at the guy in front of her in a leisurely manner.

"Hi, Angie," Lindsay greeted with a big smile on her face, "Well... nice to see you, how are you?"

"Don't pretend to be crazy, Lindsay, tell me honestly, what do you want to stay here?" Angela leaned in front of her and asked with a half-smile, "Otherwise, in post-production, I'll take your few Cut out every second of footage!"

"Just cut it off." Lindsay shrugged indifferently, and then found that Angela's smile became weird.

"I... Did I say something wrong?" She shrank her neck and asked carefully.

"Of course—no!" Angela patted her face with a smile, "You just stated your purpose."

Lindsay blinked her eyes and then understood, her face suddenly collapsed after showing a dazed look.

"How can you do this! You are cheating!" She whispered angrily, clenching her fists very unwillingly.

"It's obviously your carelessness, how can you say I'm cheating? But then again, if I don't mess around like this, I will definitely doubt whether you are Lindsay after all." Angela said leisurely, seeing Lindsay rolling her eyes Wanting to refute, naturally she would not let her muddy the water, and immediately reached out and hooked her neck and dragged her to a hidden position and asked, "Okay, now tell me, who is your target, Hannah? Christine?"

Lindsay's face changed several times, and after a long while, she said in a low voice, "Hannah..."

"It's not bad." Angela gave a thumbs up approvingly, "Hannah is beautiful, cute and smart, but I'm afraid you will be eaten to death by her...Hey, why do you have such an expression? "

Facing Angela's suspicious eyes, Lindsay spread her hands helplessly and sighed: "Her parents are very conservative and have no sympathy for homosexuals. How can I tell Hannah that I like her?"

"Is that so..." Angela rubbed her chin, "What about Hannah? What's her attitude towards homosexuality or lesbians?"

"I don't dare to ask, in case I can't even be friends..." Lindsay didn't say any more, but just spread her hands helplessly.

"Not even testing?" Angela couldn't help but glanced at the crowd, but didn't see Dakota who was talking to Christine, "I think you should try a little bit, and then tell her how you feel slowly. "

"But...but..." Lindsay hesitated and didn't know what to say.

"How do you know what Hannah is thinking? Maybe she has feelings for you, but doesn't understand? Lindsay, if you do nothing, you have no chance," Angela put a hand on her On the shoulders, "Do it hard, don't hesitate and don't worry, since I can provide little shelter for Xiao Qiao and the others, I can also provide it for you."

Lindsay looked at Angela in surprise. After a long time, the smile slowly melted away from her face. Then she stretched out her hands to hug Angela and strangled her tightly. Then she said softly, "Thank you, Angie."

The progress of the shooting was not very fast, but Angela didn't take it to heart, because the entire film was expected to progress in only 6 weeks.The reason why it is so short is naturally due to the simplicity of the scene. Although it is still not very easy to shoot, especially Angela, as the director, has to consider a lot of things, but the time is more generous than those movies that usually take two or three months to shoot. .Besides, this time there is no need to direct and act at the same time, and the preparatory work is very sufficient. In addition to reviewing American history around the main line of family, she also prepared a lot of excellent ideas, so she always directed with a relaxed attitude.

However, a smooth career does not mean that there will be no troubles in other areas. As the saying goes, there is no impenetrable wall in the world. Even though Angela carefully protects her privacy and has never let reporters confirm that she is a lesbian, she still has to prepare Opened up about my sexual orientation, so not to mention certain things that I definitely couldn't hide.

"I heard—are you planning to get married, Chris?" the father sitting at the head of the table asked casually.

"Hmm..." After the hand holding the spoon froze in mid-air for a long time, Angela forced a smile, "Yes, Dad."

Taking a quick look at the faces of her father and mother, she quickly explained: "I should have told you a long time ago, but I haven't been able to find a suitable opportunity, and I'm busy with the new movie, so... And again and again postponed..."

She didn't believe it herself when she said this, even if she was really busy, she should call and let her know, right?What's more, who is sitting with the family and enjoying dinner leisurely now?

"Actually... I was going to tell you today... just after dinner, but I didn't expect you to..." Angela tried her best to explain while secretly scolding herself for being an idiot. During those few days in New York, her aunt and godfather all came After seeing her, my father knew that her actions were too simple. Today, it was obvious that he was impatient to ask before he took the initiative to ask.

"I'm very sad, Chris, I'm actually the last few people to know about such an important matter," the father said unhurriedly, "I thought you would tell me when you returned to Los Angeles, I thought- —You will think of me first when you need help.”

The corner of Angela's mouth twitched. As expected of a father and son, this sudden vanity was really similar to grandpa's, and the mother sitting opposite had lowered her head at this time, obviously enduring it very hard.

Fortunately, Ike's voice sounded in time: "Sister is getting married?!"

"Well... well... that's it, but I'm not sure yet." Angela responded with a smile, because she was focusing on her parents, she didn't notice the excitement in her younger brother's tone.

"Who is it? Have we met?" Ike's voice suddenly raised a bit. Fortunately, Willy beside him pulled him down in time. The awakened Ike was busy watching his parents and sister Throwing over to adjust his emotions, he said in a steady voice: "Sorry, I'm just a little curious, it's impossible for my sister to marry someone we've never met before."

As he grows older, Ike, who is already 15 years old and almost taller than Angela, has become more and more calm, quite fatherly, and occasionally there will be some minor problems, such as just now.Willie, who is as beautiful as her elder sister, is still lively. Although she doesn't pay much attention to her studies, she is extremely sensitive to fashion. She is escaping while remaining calm at critical moments.

"I know, you've actually met her, Ike, and you used to play together a lot." Angela nodded to her younger brother, and let go after taking a look at her father.

"Her?" Ike suddenly showed a look of surprise, "You...you mean...her?! You mean her, sister?!"

"Yeah, is there... any problem?" Angela shrugged inexplicably. Obviously, in her subconscious mind, she thought that her family members should already know her sexual orientation, and she didn't realize that Ike was an exception.

"When... of course there is a problem, you say it's her and not him... hey! Don't pinch me down there, Willie!" Ike screamed in pain, glaring at his twin sister, but he soon realized what was wrong , looked at Willy, then at Angela, then at her parents, and then her face became weird.

"Only... I don't know?" He looked at everyone and asked, his voice trembling slightly, "Only I don't know! My sister! My favorite sister! It turned out to be a... lesbian!!"

"Well...keep calm, Ike, I can explain this." Father said with a dry cough.

"What kind of explanation do you think you should give me, Dad?!" Ike tried to calm himself, "You know that, don't you? Mom knows it too, right?! Willy knows it too, Right! And grandparents, uncles and aunts, uncles and aunts, they also know, right!"

"Correct me, Ike, Mom and Dad and Willy do know, and grandparents do know, but uncles, aunts, uncles and aunts don't know—of course, I don't guarantee that they have already guessed it now." Angela took the topic , "Actually, I have to apologize to you, Ike, I didn't know you..."

"No, no, no, I don't need it, I just... I just feel..." Ike waved his hands and took a deep breath, and just when he was about to say something, Willie came over: "If you continue, you will I'm going to dress up!"

Ike was startled, and immediately noticed the pensive flashing across his father's face. He quickly sorted out his emotions, and after sneaking a peek at Willie with weird eyes, he let all the grievances, surprises, and excitements in his heart go away. Putting aside all of them, she sighed to her sister, "Well, it's nothing, anyway... For my sister, if she doesn't do something surprising, she won't be my sister."

The whole family immediately laughed. Of course, Angela's smile was more helpless.

"Okay, now that it's all over," the father took up the topic, "Chris, tell us, who did you choose?"

"Who did you choose? Could it be that there are many people pursuing my sister at the same time?" Ike, who was surprised again, asked Willie in a low voice.

"That's right, but I think it's more "reliable" that she's chasing after many people at the same time!" Willie shrugged and replied in the same voice, then blinked teasingly, deliberately Added emotion: "It's a pity, my sister is getting married, and she no longer belongs to us."

"So what, it's not like marrying a man." Ike was not fooled, and looked at his twin sister with a playful look and countered, "So if you want to say sorry, it should be you, Willie."

"You..." Wei Li, who didn't know what to say for a while, stared at her younger brother fiercely.

However, the conversation between Angela and her father immediately attracted them and left them stunned again.

"We can discuss this after dinner, Dad." Angela initially rejected her father's proposal.

"Why is that, Chris?" Her father obviously didn't want her to get away with it like this. "Anyway, everyone already knows. What can't be said in person?"

"Because... this matter is very complicated..." Angela replied weakly, and at the same time gave her mother a look of help, but unfortunately, her mother shrugged helplessly.

"Since it's complicated, you should tell it all the more. Maybe your mother and I can help you solve it." Father pressed on step by step.

After all, the battle between your father and son has been transferred to me!Angela suddenly felt a sense of anger.Well, since you want to hear it so much, let me tell you!

"You might as well guess it, Dad," Angela suddenly put on a calm expression, "Based on what you know about me, you should be able to guess how I choose, can't you?"

"Don't you think this question is a bit simple?" The father asked curiously, "You have asked grandpa to persuade the other party's parents, and you still think I can't guess it? That girl named Natalie, right?"

"Wow, it's actually Nat!" Ike exclaimed in a low voice.

"Why not Jesse?" Willie muttered dissatisfiedly, frowning.

"Half right." Angela shrugged.

"Half right?" Father and mother looked at each other, completely confused.

"Yes, I did propose to Natalie, and she did agree, but then there was a little problem," Angela showed a big smile, "Kate, Jessie and the other 6 people hope to continue To live with me, Nat was very unhappy but agreed, but I had to prepare a unique proposal and a grand wedding."

With a clack, the fork in the father's hand fell on the table, and then the tableware in the hands of the mother and younger siblings fell one by one, and they all looked at Angela with dumbfounded expressions.

"You mean...you mean...they...all want to live with you...down?!" Father took a deep breath and asked after a lot of effort.

"Yes." Angela completely shattered her father's hope with just one word.

"God, this is just... this is just..." Father scratched his head and hardly knew what to say.

"Wow, that's... so cool!" Ike, who opened his eyes wide, didn't know whether he was amazed or envious.

"Ike, don't say such things!" The mother stopped the two people who were about to talk for the first time, and then looked at Angela after she calmed down, "Chris, they...are...all Volunteer?"

"Yes, Mom," Angela nodded, "Actually, I was also very surprised when I heard their confession."

"But...but..." Mother said several "buts" one after another, but nothing "buts" came out. Finally, she covered her forehead and sighed: "Then, do their parents know?"

"No," Angela shook her head. After talking about this, and in front of her parents, there is no need to hide it anymore, "This time I will go to London, then New York, and then back to Los Angeles. They were guests at home, and by the way, I asked my grandpa to be a lobbyist for me. But I didn’t mention it in the conversation, nor did I mention the idea of ​​getting married. I just said that I wanted to live together—even with Ai. That's what Mr. Funer said. By the way, grandpa and grandpa don't know either, please don't tell them, okay?"

"This is deception, Chris," the mother frowned slightly. "You are deceiving their parents, or in other words, you are deceiving their parents together with them. You shouldn't do this."

"But Mom," Angela asked calmly, "If the truth is told, how will those parents react?"

The mother suddenly got stuck, indeed, if she heard that her daughter wanted to share a man... or a woman with someone else's woman, she would definitely object fiercely.

"They... are so firm..." Mother asked in disbelief, gesturing.

"Yes." Angela nodded seriously.

"Well, I don't know what to say anymore." The mother sighed and covered her forehead.

"Don't worry, Mom, their parents will know when the time comes. They just want to use this method to tell their parents how determined they are. This is the best way they can think of." Angela said slightly He spread his hands guiltily.

"Then you use this method to tell us how determined you are?" Mother asked with a wry smile.

"I've said it from the beginning, we can talk about it after dinner." Angela looked at her father innocently.

The mother immediately gave the father a hard look, but the father coughed dryly and said nothing.

Angela smiled, and then stood up: "I've finished eating, you guys take it easy."

As she spoke, she walked towards the door, and her father stopped her after a few steps: "Chris, I think... Maybe you can invite them to come here for a gathering, it's not far away, isn't it?"

"I think..." Angela smiled and turned her head, "It shouldn't be a problem, but Dad, why do you want them to come here instead of you to my side? It's not far away, isn't it? "

Father shook his head with a dumbfounded smile: "Okay, then let's choose a time to go there."

It wasn't until his daughter walked out of the restaurant that Jared let out a long sigh with a wry smile: "Sure enough, our daughter can always do something that makes people dumbfounded."

Linna didn't speak, but looked at the other two whispering children, and also let out a long breath.
