1287 Awkward goodbye

Those are his applause and cheers, those are his screams and crowds, those are his siege and excitement.

Even if he doesn't like it, it still belongs to him. Damn Renly, he actually made him embarrassed in public again and gave him a slap in the face.!

If this scene is recorded by reporters, it will become a stain on his career. "Damn it," he gritted his teeth..

Suddenly I remembered something. This is Cannes. Cannes is shrouded by countless reporters and countless spotlights. There is no need to doubt that it may have started to spread on social networks now..

what to do?

Chris was in a dilemma when the club next to him suddenly became lively. Seven or eight waiters all swarmed out, bustling and bustling towards the surging crowd, and tried their best to control the situation. , dispersed the crowd, and then like digging potatoes, rescued Renly from the encirclement..

A rare scene suddenly appeared before my eyes:

Surrounded by a group of waiters, Renly quickly retreated and entered the private club in a mighty manner. Behind him, the group of fanatical fans were still screaming and shouting, chasing after him. It looks like a classic scene from the movie "The Bodyguard" recreated.

Chris couldn't help but be stunned for a moment..

Everything happened so fast just now. Chris didn't have time to think. He was still immersed in his own shame and anger, but out of the corner of his vision, he saw that the door of the club was about to be blocked. The staff seemed to have completely forgotten his existence. , shutting him outside together, only then did he calm down.

He quickly stepped forward, then dodged. Two staff members even pushed Chris away, "It's me! Are you crazy?" In desperation, Chris's foul language came to his mouth, and he woke up in time. They were able to enter, and then the staff immediately closed the fence gate..

The next second, Chris saw the embarrassed Renly in front of him..

Most of the buttons on his shirt have been torn off, the holes above the knees of his jeans have been completely torn, and his white canvas shoes have now become works of art with countless footprints... The worst thing is that the handsome face His hair was covered with mottled sweat stains, looking like a child who had just finished playing in the mud. Even his baseball cap had been lifted, revealing messy hair like a bird's nest..

However, at this moment, there was a helpless smile on that face. He shook his head slightly, spread his hands, and said meaningfully, "God, welcome to Cannes." This simple sentence, but It reveals a touch of ridicule and joking, and everyone who is involved in it can deeply understand the meaning behind the words..

In an instant, every staff member had a smile on their face.

“Thank you." Renly expressed his gratitude formally, and the smile on his lips blossomed brightly, revealing a childish look..

Immediately afterwards, Renly's eyes fell on Chris, "Hey, Chris, welcome to Cannes.”

There is no estrangement, no calculation, no ridicule, and no hint. Strictly speaking, there is also no familiarity or strangeness. The calm tone is as if Chris and the other staff are all the same, just an unexpected encounter in a strange city.——

This is also true.

Faced with Renly's generosity, Chris felt a little uncomfortable. He couldn't remember the last time the two of them met face-to-face, but the embarrassment and unfamiliarity never disappeared, and he squirmed slightly. mouth, trying to squeeze out some words.

However, this was really not an easy task. In the end, he could only twitch the corners of his mouth and give a smile, expressing his response without smiling..

“Sorry, I'm really out of my mind right now. Can I borrow the bathroom to tidy myself up? Or would it be more convenient for me to go directly to the beach and embrace the sea? "Renly's words always carry a touch of humor, not the kind that makes people laugh out loud, but the lightness that makes people smile, and there is a low laughter all around again..

One of the staff members in formal attire came up and said, "Sorry, forgive our negligence. Please follow me, and I will lead you to the bathroom." Then he took the lead and started to guide you..

Renly nodded politely to everyone, including Chris, and then followed the staff member and left the entrance of the bar..

There was an indescribable irritability in Chris's heart.

This was the reason why he didn't like Renly. He was polite in everything, elegant and calm in everything, and confident in everything. He had a superior attitude in his bones, as if everyone else was inferior; obviously They had fallen apart and were no longer friends at all, but Renly still behaved appropriately and was so hypocritical that it was disgusting..

He just wanted to take off Renly's mask and see the real panic and embarrassment on that face..

“God, oh, God." There was a burst of French muttering in his ears, but Chris couldn't understand a word. His irritability couldn't help but surge more and more, and then he saw one of the staff members leaving. He came up, with an indescribable mixed expression on his face, and asked in English, "Sorry, Chris, may I ask, is he really Renly Hall?"?”

Chris didn't know why, but he nodded in affirmation..

“‘That (THE) Renly Hall? "The other party still couldn't believe it, so he asked again and added an article to emphasize the unique meaning of the whole world..

Chris resisted the urge to roll his eyes and forced a smile, "Yes, that's right..”

“God! "The staff member hugged his head in annoyance and sighed exaggeratedly..

“What's wrong? "Chris didn't understand the situation at all, so he could only ask reflexively..

“Just now... just now..." The young man sighed twice, and then the other friends next to him spoke a series of French words, and he cheered up, "Just now he came over to ask about the club's ticket qualifications, and I told him that this It's a private party, he can't come in.”

“Pierre? are you crazy?”

“What happened to you?”

“Didn't you see his face??”

“Can't believe it! Jeremy will kill you.”

“What was Renly's expression like??”

“How come you didn't recognize Renly??”

The chatter came out in an instant, completely drowning the young man. He could only defend himself by saying, "He was wearing a baseball cap at the time, covering his face, and he was speaking in French and did not introduce himself. It was totally obvious that I didn’t mean to not come out..." But as he spoke, he himself collapsed and covered his face again——

This year's Cannes Film Festival is full of stars, but even among the stars in the sky, Renly is the most noteworthy one. His popularity is even comparable to that of Leonardo DiCaprio. It is no exaggeration. Said that for every five people who came to Cannes, one could find one who came specifically for Renly..

How could he not know Renly? He just...he just...has no excuse.

Chris, who was standing next to him, had a strange expression on his face..

He never expected that Renly would be where he is today. There are still people who don't know him. But if he thinks about it carefully, it's not surprising. After all, Renly is mainly active in the field of art films, and the influence of commercial films is still limited. At least compared to a series of superheroes in Marvel comics, the familiarity is still slightly less..

Chris gently patted the staff member's shoulder to express comfort, but tried to say some words of comfort, but ultimately failed..

Chris himself experienced exactly the same thing.

Even now when I think back to those two-faced directors and producers, they used to not take themselves seriously at all, as if they were transparent and insignificant; but now they stand shoulder to shoulder and call each other brothers, and their flattering and ugly faces are simply It was disgusting, and he couldn't contain his anger and contempt..

The problem is that when facing those directors and producers, he can't get angry easily and can only swallow all his resentment and disgust. When facing ordinary people... he still can't get angry casually, but at least he can be fair and aboveboard. express dissatisfaction and complaint.

What about Renly? What will Renly do??

Or do you keep the mask of duplicity and hypocrisy? Or is it a blatant expression of dissatisfaction? Or maybe he is arrogant and vents his anger?

Thinking of this, Chris felt a sense of empathy in his heart. He and Renly had both experienced the same situation. He could understand Renly's current mood, the shame and aggrieved feeling that he couldn't express. Only Only by being in it can you deeply understand it. After realizing this, the irritability gradually calmed down and my mood became slightly clearer..

There were still whispers in their ears, and everyone was expressing their disbelief: During the Cannes Film Festival, in the clubs where all kinds of top private parties were held, there was someone who didn't know anyone. Renly, this is simply ridiculous. What's more important is that Renly should be the guest that every top party is vying for, and he has just been turned away..

This is definitely the biggest topic after dinner at the 66th Cannes Film Festival.

“Thank you, thank you very much." Accompanied by the staff, Renly reappeared, walked towards him, and stopped at the entrance.——

The entrance design of this club is unique, similar to the style of a pier. The space after entering the gate is a straight corridor, which can be entered from the left and right sides. In the center is the opening leading to the interior of the club, which can be seen A design similar to the style of a pirate ship displays the entire interior space in front of you.

Across the entire room, you can see the sea.

Now, all of them are standing on the three-way intersection in the middle of the "T-shaped mouth", and then they meet again.
