Beverly Hills, shrouded in the night, has a hint of grace, like a French lady wearing a traditional palace dress, sitting dignified and elegantly on a red velvet stool. Her quiet and noble appearance attracts all kinds of sights, making people unable to help but stop.

Located at the foot of this hill, adjacent to Willshe Avenue, the California golden era decoration style shows low-key luxury, tall vaults, quiet sky gardens, Mediterranean fountains... All showcase the glory of Hollywood and the brilliance of today. Walking on the dark brown bricks and stones stained with moisture, it seems to be walking through the times. The noise and hustle and bustle spread in the air like dust, but it further highlights the peace of the courtyard, making people feel like sleeping in a fairyland and following Alice's pace.

Kaira Knightley gracefully lifted her skirt, tiptoed, and draped in the air with the water vapor floating in the air, and walked into the hotel. A waiter in a black suit smiled and greeted her, "Good evening, Miss Knightley." Kaira was a little surprised. The other party actually recognized her. The waiter bent politely and made a gentleman invitation. "Please follow me, Mr. Strello is looking forward to your arrival."

Kaila gently pursed her lips, and the pink lip gloss flashed with a wonderful brilliance under the light. She nodded to the waiter with a smile, and then the waiter led the way forward, guiding Kaila to the "Eat Dry and Spread" restaurant.

This restaurant is famous in Los Angeles. Keira has long heard of the reputation of this high-end Italian restaurant. A dinner can cost the average working class three days' salary; but when she walked into the restaurant, her simple and generous modernist design style made her stunned. Compared with the high and expensive consumption level, the decoration seems a bit simple.

Following the waiter's footsteps, Kaira walked towards the window to the right. From a distance, she saw the man.

The golden lights fell like bright stars, falling on the broad shoulders bit by bit, and carefully depicting the shape of the shoulder lines. The blue-gray vertical striped collarless shirt looked casual and lazy. In the orange light, the azure blue eyes looked particularly dazzling.

The man stood up and took the initiative to walk behind the chair opposite. He pulled open the chair, and Kaila did not sit down immediately, but stood beside the chair, looked at Lance carefully, and raised her chin slightly, "Why are you sure I will show up?"

Lance raised the smile on the corner of his mouth, then he raised his right hand, crossed his index finger and middle finger together, and made a prayer gesture. A simple action made Kaira chuckle. Then she didn't say anything more, but just sat down. Then, Lance returned to his position and sat down.

The waiter who led the way just now retreated, and then the waiter inside the restaurant came over with the wine list and handed it to Kaila. Kaila did not read it, but raised her chin and said calmly, "This is my first time here. I don't know what is worth recommending for the menu tonight?" I asked about the main course first, and then selected the matching red wine. It can be seen that Kaila was ready.

"Tonight the chef recommended steak, Angus cattle that had just been airlifted from Australia. It was raised for 450 days and the quality was excellent. You can choose to match the 1998 White Horse Castle red wine." The waiter smiled and said that there was no flattering praises. The just right introduction was impressive. He paused for a moment, his eyes stopped on Lance and Keira respectively. Seeing that neither of them had any objections, he then continued, "We can match eight, ten or twelve meal options according to your needs."

When you first appear in a strange restaurant, you will often make a fool of yourself and miss many delicacies in the restaurant. Therefore, choosing a chef's recommendation is the safest but also the wisest choice. Especially in restaurants like "Eat Dry and Spray", the chef is the biggest highlight and generally there will be no mistakes.

Kaila handed the wine list back to the waiter and said with a smile, "I have no problem, I have to look at Mr. Strello's choice now." Different amounts of meals mean that the meal time is different, and the price naturally varies greatly.

Lance raised his eyebrows slightly, "Please choose a ten-course meal." The waiter nodded slightly, Lance looked at Kaira, "I hope this will not destroy a lady's diet control plan." This sentence made Kaira glar at her almond eyes and look at Lance fiercely, but Lance didn't care at all, and then raised her head and added, "Also, wine is given to us from 1997."

After the waiter confirmed that neither of them had given orders, he pushed back and turned away.

Kayla obviously hasn't come out of the teasing of "meal plan". She doesn't need to lose weight or control her weight, so she naturally won't like the jokes revealed in Lance's words. She gritted her teeth gently, "So, why do you suddenly want to invite me to dinner?"

Lance chuckled, and the low sound was like mellow red wine, and the sound came in his ears. Then the fragrance began to linger under his nose, which made Kaila clear his throat and straighten her backbone. Then she heard Lance say, "Because I need paparazzi to witness that I am dating." This made Kaila stunned. She did not expect that this would be the answer. Kaila frowned slightly, obviously not believing Lance's words. She curled her lips, "Prove that you are not gay?"

Such aggressive words made Lance laugh again, without affirmation or denial, but asked, "So, why did you nod and agree?"

Kaila felt her cheeks were a little hot, she raised her chin and said proudly, "I'm not because of you, but because of this restaurant." Under Lance's gaze, Kaila felt a heat. She picked up the water cup, took a sip, concealed her panic, and then turned to look at the interior decoration of the restaurant.

"If you want, you can come here to have a meal at any time. I believe that there must be many people who want to get this honor." Lance's words were plain and gentle, without flattery, and without slickness. The understatement revealed seriousness, which made Kaila's heartbeat start to accelerate.

"Really?" Kaila felt her voice trembling, and she couldn't help but pick up the water cup again.

Lance's eyes were still staring at Kaira's eyes, as if she could see through her soul, "You are very beautiful tonight."

Kaila was a little cramped, but such simple and straightforward praise easily broke through her defense line. Her eyes seemed to have magic power, which made people unable to look directly at her. She avoided her gaze in a little embarrassing manner. The violent beating of her heart made her at a loss, but she immediately noticed her dignity - like a fourteen-year-old girl, so she boldly raised her head, looked straight towards Lance, and then decided to take the initiative.

"So, why is this restaurant called this name?" Kaila took the initiative to change the topic and tried to dispel the winding atmosphere in the air.

Lance seemed to have not noticed Keira's intentions. He leaned back slightly to the back of the chair, his eyes drooping slightly, covering the light in his eyes. "a means small shoes in Italian, but it is also a slang term, which means a person's action of eating the sauce remaining on the plate with a small piece of bread."

"Is that true?" Kaila obviously did not expect that the name "eat and wipe it all" was actually a slang term, and it represented a vulgar and rude action, which was completely inconsistent with the image of a high-end restaurant.

Lance nodded, "But this short word is very vivid, isn't it?"

The vivid expression of the deliciousness of the dishes makes people reluctant to waste a drop. Thinking about it carefully, Kaila had to agree, but she was reluctant to give in. "I hope the dishes here can really deserve this name."

"You can try to challenge the chef's authority." Lance shrugged indifferently, and his relaxed and playful tone made Kaira frown without admitting defeat, "Don't think I dare not."

Lance did not raise his eyes, but said casually, "I believe you dare. If it were me, I wouldn't have lowered my gaze."

A simple sentence made Kaila pause, and his sharp-tongued defense disappeared. He gently bit his lower lip and looked at Lance deeply. The smile on the corner of his mouth had already bloomed, but there was a hint of helplessness. He wanted to refute, but he didn't know how to get it. A hint of annoyance and coquettishness flashed in his eyes.

Not long ago, "King Arthur" was grandly released in North America, and the movie suffered a crushing defeat in both box office and reputation. According to rumors, Michael Esner was furious and he had a head-on conflict with Jerry Brookheimer because this work is likely to replace "Troy" and become the work with the largest loss so far this year.

As the heroine, Kaila is also under tremendous pressure, especially after experiencing the outbreak of three works in the past year, this time the box office defeat made her a target of gunfire. Countless people are questioning whether she was short-lived. In a public interview not long ago, a reporter directly sarcastically said whether the failure of "King Arthur" was because Kaila was too immature and almost invisible.

Kaila directly yelled back on the spot, "If I only measured the success or failure of the work, I would not even have the chance to win the first role." The calm attitude left the reporters speechless, and then Kaila said bluntly, "For those viewers who want to go to the cinema to watch, I think it would be a wiser decision for them to choose 'Troy'." A counterattack made all the reporters around hilarious.

——The upper circumference size of "Troy" Ribrad Pitt is indeed a "big highlight".

So, Lance said this.
