New York 2006

Chapter 218 New Girlfriend

Silent primeval forest, gloomy sky, towering trees.

Luo Ji and Christine stood face to face on a pile of fallen leaves, surrounded by a fallen dead tree with some gray mushrooms on it.

"You don't want me?"

"No more." Luo Ji said coldly.

Kristen's face on the opposite side was full of "sadness", and she said, "This will change a lot of things."

Seeing the poor acting skills of Christine opposite him, Luo Ji burst into laughter.

Christine in front of me was very angry. She walked up and slapped Luo Ji twice on the shoulder: "Why are you laughing? The emotions I had finally brewed were interrupted by you again."

"Card!"

Director Zhu Haowei shouted: "Logic, why are you laughing again? Can you learn from Christine, show the ethics of an actor, be more dedicated, and learn her acting skills?"

Hearing this, Luo Ji laughed even louder.The people around him were also infected by the laughter and started laughing.

Christine’s “acting skills.”

In the first "Twilight" movie, she was criticized for having the worst acting skills, other than Luo Ji.

Seeing Luo Ji's reaction, Zhu Haowei put his hand on his forehead, feeling very helpless.

As an employee of Luo Ji, he didn't have the majesty of a director in front of Luo Ji, but after getting along with him for the past two days, he also caught Luo Ji's weakness.

Zhu Haowei said to the people on the crew around him: "Everyone take a break for half an hour. Today's filming may be delayed. Everyone is prepared to work overtime."

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, don't," Luo Ji immediately shouted, "Give me 2 minutes, let me gather my emotions."

He couldn't bear to pay more overtime pay.

Although the crew has sufficient production funds, they still have to save some money and spend it later on special effects and fighting.

The first part that was criticized was the fighting aspect.Some media commented.The movie does nothing to convey the strength and superhuman characteristics of vampires.

Now for the second part of the movie, the director and producer are both Chinese.

Then kung fu is definitely indispensable, and the movies have already hired martial arts directors.Of course it's not the kind of Hong Kong martial arts style Kung Fu, it's closer to modern fighting, and it should reflect the superhuman power of vampires.

Luo Ji would practice during this time when he had time. He considered himself to be a fighting master.

Now I am eager to try it out and want to find someone to discuss it with.

Half an hour later, the filming of this episode ended.

"OK, that's it. Let's take a rest for an hour and get ready to eat." Director Zhu Haowei curled his lips and shouted.

The two actors basically managed to get by. After all, this is a movie about vampire youth idol Mary Sue, so the requirements cannot be too high.

The crew immediately dispersed and ran to a nearby fire to keep warm.

Luo Ji quickly took the black windbreaker Fiona handed over and put it on, complaining: "This damn place in St. Helens County, Portland, is already so cold in September."

Kristen next to her also put on the coat she had prepared in advance: "Didn't we come here last year? It's not like you don't know the weather here."

“It was November then and it’s only September now.”

Luo Ji took a sip of the hot coffee handed over by Fiona and felt warm immediately.

"Yeah, it's still warm in California. I feel a little homesick."

Christine said melancholy.

Luo Ji looked at her and asked, "Would you like a cup of hot coffee? Fiona still has it in her thermos."

"of course."

Fiona glared at Luo Ji quietly before pouring Kristen a drink.

"Lunch is here." The crew's support staff shouted loudly.

Luo Ji was already a little hungry, so he immediately ran over to get a portion and started eating.He finished eating quickly and lay happily on the chair looking at the surrounding scenery.

Needless to say, such a primitive natural environment is really refreshing.

Luo Ji felt that the two days of filming the movie were the best and most relaxing moments for him in the past few months.

Christine came over at this time: "Logic, let's go for a walk together? It will help digestion."

Luo Ji said in surprise: "This is a primeval forest. There may be wild animals."

There are indeed wild beasts in this forest. The crew's security guards all carried guns today, and the local police station also sent several police officers to assist.

"Just strolling around." Christine said.

"That's fine."

Luo Ji stood up and walked with her, and the two of them wandered around the area.There are fallen leaves on the ground, and you can hear the rustle of feet stepping on them along the way.

The two of them had not gone far when a fat white police officer who was eating a box lunch said: "Logic, Christine, don't go too far."

"understood."

Christine asked curiously: "Why are the local police so kind to the crew?"

"On the one hand, it's because the crew donated money to the local police station, and on the other hand, because after the movie was released, more tourists came here, which promoted local economic development. I have met many tourists in the past two days, and they also You took a photo with me. Didn’t you notice?"

"So this is ah!"

After Kristine finished speaking, she picked a withered yellow leaf from a nearby branch and threw it into Luo Ji's face. The leaf fell along his face and onto his neck.

Kristine immediately laughed like a successful prank: "Hahaha."

Luo Ji helplessly took out the leaves from his neck and threw them to the ground: "I haven't seen you for only a few months, why have you become so childish!"

"Slightly, slightly, slightly." Christine mocked, sticking out her tongue.

Luo Ji grabbed a few fallen leaves from the ground and threw them over her head. Christine also resisted and picked up a few fallen leaves and threw them over.

For a while, the two used leaves as weapons and began to "fight" each other.

After all, both of them are only 18 years old, so it's normal to be a little childlike.

However, Luo Ji didn't give her a chance and quickly walked up to her. Using his height and strength, he suppressed her with one hand and threw leaves at her head with the other.

Kristine yelled: "You're such a swindler, let me go if you can."

"I don't want it unless you give up."

Luo Ji cared about winning or losing.He has a strong desire to win.

Christine tried several times, but to no avail, so she had no choice but to admit defeat and beg for mercy.

She arranged her messy hair, held the dead leaves from the inside of her hair, and complained: "The director will definitely scold me later."

Luo Ji stepped forward and said, "Come here, let me get it for you."

Christine was not tall, so Luo Ji lowered his head and fiddled with her black hair, and took out the dead leaves from it.

The hair is very soft and smooth.

Fortunately, the weather here is relatively humid, and the fallen leaves are not dry. If they break into small pieces and get into her hair, it will be difficult to take them out.

"No, just ask the stylist to help you tidy up later."

Kristen reached out and slapped Luo Ji twice: "It's all your fault." "Who told you to mess with me?"

"You are not a gentleman at all. You don't know how to give in to me."

"Gentleman seems to have always been out of touch with me. Don't you know my media image?"

"Big troll."

Luo Ji said shamelessly, "Hahaha, I'll take it as a compliment from you."

It had been a while since I'd seen Christine, and Luo Ji felt that she had become a lot more confident.

She used to be careful to please him, but now she dared to play with him.It has to be said that status has a great impact on self-confidence, and Kristen is becoming more and more like a big star.

The two continued to walk and chat, basically talking about interesting things about the crew.

Christine suddenly changed the subject, turned to look at him and said, "By the way, I haven't congratulated you yet, happy wedding."

"Thanks……"

Luo Ji just prepared to say thank you casually, just like everyone else.

But looking at Christine, this girl of the same age as him had fair skin, youthful beauty, and a faint fragrance.The words changed as soon as they reached his lips.

"It's not what you think."

Kristine's eyes brightened instantly: "What does that look like?"

Luo Ji was vague: "It's not convenient to reveal it now. You will know it in three months."

Kristine stopped, thought for a moment and said, "So you married that reporter for the sake of your children, and you will get divorced in three months."

Luo Ji said in surprise: "How did you guess that?"

"What's so difficult about this? Isn't this very common in the United States? Many people get married and divorced quickly after having children. A distant uncle of mine had such an experience."

"Uh... well."

The United States has a relatively open concept of gender, and due to religious reasons, many people will not have an abortion after pregnancy.

Some of them choose this way for the sake of their children.

The movie "Juno" released last year, which tells the story of underage pregnancy, was a box office hit.

The American media is generally very cautious when mentioning minors. Now the social phenomenon of minor pregnancy can be discussed openly, let alone adults.

In addition, the divorce rate in the United States exceeds 50%. Unlike some less developed countries, the American public is already very accepting of this kind of thing.

The two of them walked around and came to the periphery of the set. There was no one around, only the chirping of insects and birds in nature, which made people feel very comfortable.

Christine touched Luo Ji with her shoulder and asked nonchalantly, "So you are single now?"

"Yeah." Luo Ji looked at her and said.

The Christine in front of her had messy hair, but her facial features were really pretty. No one disliked pretty girls, and Luo Ji was no exception.

Kristine took the initiative to throw herself into her arms before, but due to the obligation of loyalty, although he was moved, he finally refused.

But now, Luo Ji was free. He decided to restore his nature and no longer suppress.

Luo Ji took the initiative, showing the cold expression on the face of Edward, the male protagonist in the first movie, and looking directly at Christine.

"What are you looking at?"

"Look at you."

Luo Ji walked up to her and moved forward step by step.Kristen stepped back and finally leaned against a tree.

She swallowed: "What are you going to do?"

Luo Ji supported her with his hands and surrounded her against the tree: "There will be a kissing scene tomorrow, and I want to practice it in advance."

"it's not good……"

Before she could finish her words, Luo Ji took the initiative and kissed her.

Kristen dodged a little at first, but slowly, she put her arms around Luo Ji's neck and took the initiative to kiss him.

The two of them were close together, and Luo Ji's hand slowly moved down her back.

"Ah."

Kristine felt a fire burning in her lower abdomen, but she quickly recovered her senses, gently pushed Luo Ji away, and whispered, "It seems like there is no such action in the script."

Luo Ji looked at her face: "Don't you know what I mean?"

"What's on your mind?"

Luo Ji took her hand and put it on his chest: "Feel it, this is what I feel. I like you."

Christine could feel Luo Ji's strong heartbeat from outside her clothes.

But she quickly threw away Luo Ji's hand and said angrily: "Last time I came to you so humbly, but you rejected me mercilessly. Now that you say this to me, what do you think of me? You want it? A toy that you can throw away if you want it?"

"Doesn't this prove that I'm a good man?"

"You are shameless."

Luo Ji said seriously: "Now, it's you I like, Christine."

She wanted to leave, but Luo Ji held her back and asked, "Will you be my girlfriend?"

"We'll wait until you get divorced." Kristen said and walked towards the set.

Luo Ji smiled and chased after her, put his arm around her shoulders and said cheekily, "I'm single now, so I'll take it as your promise."

"No."

"Anyway, I think so."

"No."

"Then you just don't like me and don't want to be my girlfriend, so you're in a different relationship."

After Luo Ji finished speaking shamelessly, without waiting for her answer, he walked away from her and walked towards the crew angrily without looking back.

The strong and weak relationship between the two quickly changed.

Kristine looked at Luo Ji's leaving figure, stamped her feet angrily, and muttered in a low voice, "Can't you be a little patient with me?"

…………

At night, in Luo Ji's room at the hotel, Luo Ji was sitting on the sofa watching TV. 18-year-old Christine held his arm and shook him.

"Logic, don't be angry."

"I'm definitely not in love with you. I only like you."

"My dear, you will know when you touch it, and you will be able to feel my feelings."

Luo Ji stretched out his hand and felt it: "It's so flat."

　I'm done with my work, I'll update it steadily in the future

　　Thank you to Starfire for the 100 coins, thank Jotaro for the 2000 coins that will always live in my heart, and thank 20230607095316066 for the 2500 coins.
