The time of 1994 quickly slipped through the fingers like an hourglass, and 1995 was already in front of you after Christmas.

This New Year's Eve seems to be a little missing. The Fenjin Elite Brokerage Company has only been established for less than a year. The company is not large in size and the entire system is not complete. Therefore, there is no end-of-year lunch meeting. It is just that the professions within the company held a party by themselves. So Hugo did not attend such social occasions as they had previously been in the past two years. Instead, he was free and could have a good rest.

In fact, Hugo has been resting since the filming "before sunrise", and has been resting for more than three months. However, comparing the busy work before 1994, it is not uncommon for these three months to relax.

Charlize stood by the dining table and was sorting out what he had just bought from the supermarket. He asked casually, "So, how about Christmas? Is everything OK with Adam?" This Christmas, Hugo finally returned to Langchez, and Hugo and Adam and his son spent this annual festival together.

Hugo was sorting out the messy newspapers and videotapes in the hall, and sighed, "Ho, a disaster." This sentence made Charlize laugh, "He and I stared at each other, and started arguing after saying a few words. It's so terrible. Fortunately, the Taylors saved us. You will never know how happy I was when Molly appeared," said Hugo, standing up straight, and Charlize turned his head and looked over, "and my father looked more like a savior coming."

"Hahahaha..." Charlize was directly amused by Hugo's exaggerated tone, and his hearty laughter burst out.

Although Hugo and Adam have opened their hearts and have even experienced the provocation incident of Mr. Bond that has not yet ended, the relationship between the two is still full of embarrassment. The main reason is that the two men are not very clear about how to get along with each other, which makes the separation between the two people a disaster.

"But, you know, his health is really bad. I see that he is still smoking secretly and his cough is getting worse and worse." Hugo said in a deep tone and worriedly, which slowly settled the atmosphere in the hall.

Charlize understood Hugo's mood very well, "Time always likes to leave something on us, right? Maybe you should force him to go to the hospital for examination." Charlize was the same with her mother Gerda, always worried about her body.

"I have this plan too..." Halfway through the words, a knock came from the door. Hugo and Charlize looked at the door together, and then the two people's eyes collided again. Hugo asked with a chuckling, "Are you guessing it Mr. Perfect or Cameron?"

"You'll know if you open the door." Charlize obviously had no interest in this topic.

Today, Charlize and Stewart, Hugo and Cameron dated together. This was Cameron's proposal. Because Cameron and Alex are still familiar with him, she has always had little contact with Charlize, so she actively hopes to get to know more Hugo's friends and roommates. This proposal made Hugo feel helpless, and Charlize doesn't care, but when Charlize mentioned it to Mr. Perfect, he actually received a warm response from Mr. Perfect.

So, the date went on naturally.

Hugo walked towards the gate, but couldn't help but pause, "Hey, what's Mr. Perfect's name?"

"Stuart Townsend!" Charlize said angrily and amusedly, and did not forget to roll his eyes to Hugo. The two of them were used to calling "Mr. Perfect". Hugo, a person who has no memory of names, could not remember Mr. Perfect's name.

Hugo put his middle finger beside his mouth and signaled "shhhh" not to let the people at the door hear it. Then he hurried over and opened the door. He suddenly saw Stewart standing at the door, with a white shirt with a navy suit. The shirt did not button the top button, formal but casual. The long hair that was over the ears would not look too feminine. On the contrary, it also had a kind of chic elegance.

"Good evening, Hugo." Stewart smiled politely.

Hugo widened his eyes and showed a kind smile, "Good evening... Stewart." Hugo almost forgot his name again, but fortunately covered the past.

"Please call me Stu." Stewart's graceful demeanor was different from Hugo's gentleman. Relatively speaking, Hugo was more lively and sunny. Hugo's smile was one of his biggest characteristics; but Stewart seemed very restrained and even a little shy. There were too many and too many mixed information hidden in his eyes that were eager to speak, but the mysterious aura on him was completely opposite to Hugo.

Then Stewart handed the red wine in his hand to Hugo, "The first official visit, I heard Sally say you like to drink coffee, but I didn't study much about coffee, so I chose red wine, hoping it won't be too disappointing."

"I would never say that I look forward to seeing beer more." Hugo took the wine and said cheerfully, but one sentence made Stewart chuckle, "Come in, welcome. Hey, Charlize, your man is here!"

Hugo's second half of the teasing made Stewart feel a little restrained, and Charlize in the restaurant said without looking back, "What about your woman? I'm late?" He directly made Hugo touch his nose depressedly. "Stu, you sit in the hall with Hugo first. You've come a little early, and we haven't started preparing yet."

In fact, Hugo had met Stewart twice before, but today the occasion is relatively formal, so both of them seemed a little restrained. After hearing Charlize's explanation, Hugo, as the master, could only take the initiative and be more enthusiastic.

"So, how are the road conditions today? Are everything okay?" Hugo actually felt quite tricky, because he was the owner of the house, but Charlize was too, so he couldn't treat Stewart like a real owner who entertained guests. Today he was a date with two groups. This was something Hugo had never tried, so this made Hugo a little restrained and didn't know how to get to the topic.

This is also the reason why Hugo was helpless when he heard about Cameron's proposal to date in pairs. This situation is really not something Hugo is used to.

"There are some congestions on Monica Avenue. I heard that a minor child drove on the road and was stopped, causing traffic jams." Stewart was not a talkative person, but he actively agreed to the invitation to formally get to know Hugo, so he naturally would not do anything today.

"Minor? Oh, the kids are so bold now." Hugo and Stewart sat down on the sofa, but the two were far away from each other, with a large group of people in the middle. "You know, when I went to Burbank not long ago, I actually met a fifteen-year-old paparazzi. It really surprised me. The kid looked full of acne and a green face. When he admitted that he was a paparazzi, I was stunned."

Stewart looked at Hugo in front of him seriously, not that he didn't know Hugo, on the contrary, Hugo is everywhere in Los Angeles, and Hugo's face is almost the representative face of Hollywood. But at this time, Stewart was confirming that Hugo is the Hugo who Charlizes best friend, which is also the biggest reason why Stewart promised to date together today.

"Are you serious, not kidding?" Although Stewart was still a little reserved, he still tried hard to respond to Hugo's words.

Stewart knew that Hugo was part of Charlize's life, and the friendship between the two was very special. They were not only roommates, but also friends who learned acting skills together, and even communicated many trivial matters in life. This can be heard from Charlize's conversation. During Charlize's conversation, Hugo almost popped up every now and then. It was not that Charlize did this on purpose, but because Charlize's life included Hugo.

So, Stewart wanted to know Hugo, and as Charlize's friend Hugo, he didn't want to fight an unprepared battle.

Hugo didn't think as much as Stewart thought. He nodded vigorously, "Yes, because I was too curious, I asked his name...uh...I can't remember it now, but believe me, don't be surprised to see a minor child running around with a retro camera on his back and running around with an artist."

"For me, this is still a long time." Stewart said with a chuckling. Stewart also came to Hollywood with the actor's dream, but he has not received any chance at the moment and is still struggling in the infinite cycle of auditions.

Actually, this is very subtle. Charlize was still an unknown person before, so there was no problem with their relationship. But now, Charlize has collaborated with Hugo on "Before Sunrise". Everyone knows that Hugo is the hottest existence in Hollywood now. Maybe after the movie is released, Charlize will succeed. Then the relationship between Charlize and Stewart will no longer be equal.

This is not a good situation for any man. Perhaps, this is one of the reasons why Stewart wants to learn more about Hugo in his heart.

Hugo noticed the strangeness in Stewart's smile, and his head turned around and understood. But after he finished speaking, both of them fell silent, just looking at each other awkwardly without saying anything. This silence almost consumed all the oxygen, making people feel that the temperature in the hall kept soaring.

Hugo coughed twice, and said, "I heard from Charlize that you also attended an audition not long ago, what was the result?"

"Oh, yes..." When talking about this, Stewart finally relaxed a little, and the conversation seemed to be about to open, but before he could speak, he was interrupted by the knock on the door. Hugo smiled apologetically, then stood up, and shouted to Charlize, who was still busy in the restaurant, "Look, our preparations are late, and Cameron is coming too."

"Hey, I didn't delay time in the supermarket. You should blame the woman who spent twenty minutes to check out!" Charlize retorted without showing any weakness.
Chapter completed!
