Chapter 94 The Food War

Sitting quietly on the chair, Natalie opened the script, and the first thing that caught her eye was a painting. In the painting was a thin girl wearing a striped short-sleeved shirt. Her dark brown bob head covered her sad face. Under her bright eyes, there were two lines of clear tears. The silver-white sun-shaped pendant worn between her neck was particularly eye-catching.

Matilda? Is this me? This girl is clearly what she looks like.

Natalie did not ask, but continued to look through it. There were more than a dozen sketches at the back, most of which were outlined based on her blueprint, and a few were scenes of her looking at each other with a tall man with a big nose.

Although the painting level is not very high, the character's expression can still be distinguished. For some reason, after reading these paintings, Natalie unconsciously remembered the book "Lolita" that she once peeked.

Maybe it was just my illusion that that annoying guy shouldn't be so bored. Natalie shook her head and opened the main text of the script.

Gangster? Killer? Action scene? Her brows frowned, remembering that the name of the script was "Killer Leon". Is it normal for such a scene to appear?

As an extremely smart girl, she reads very quickly. Finally, she saw Matilda appearing. The miserable experience of this precocious girl instantly attracted her, especially the few lines inside, which were written very well.

Is life so painful? Or is it only in childhood? It’s so painful!

It seems to be of the level of "The Sixth Sense", which is not perfunctory. Natalie smiled. She could clearly write such a thoughtful work, but she insisted on moving closer to commercialization, for fear that others would not smell the odor of his body!

Yes! It's the smell of money! She remembers that this is the word in Chinese.

Natalie was in a happy mood and felt that it would be a wise choice to play such a role. However, the good times did not last long. As the plot deepened, her brows furrowed, especially when she saw the emotional exchange between Leon and Matilda, she suddenly realized that Matilda was clearly a strong and alternative Lolita!

Before she knew it, she rose up and her cheeks bulged up. She began to browse ten lines at a glance. The more she looked, the more conflicted she felt. She had starred in many stage plays and read a large number of scripts. Especially after meeting Ryan, she would mail an attachment to each script he wrote, which was somewhat of a good idea.

The two characters Leon and Matilda are extremely well portrayed, especially Matilda. Her character and her traits are almost tailor-made for her, but why, the relationship between her and Leon...

OK! She admitted that without this relationship, the script would be at most a medium level, just a bastard Ryan Jenkins! Is this the script he kept preparing for himself?

Natalie scratched her face and closed the script. Ryan came over and asked, "Nat..."

"Ryan, what are you thinking? Are you peeking at "Lolita"?" Before the other party could finish his words, Natalie asked.

"Ah...Lolita..." Ryan was really stopped by Natalie, and then he reacted, "Nat, you actually peeked at Lolita!"

"..." Natalie opened her mouth and quickly changed the subject, "Ryan, what are you thinking? Oh my God, the love story of a twelve-year-old girl and a middle-aged killer, are you crazy?"

"Come on, Nat, this is just a fairy tale, a fairy tale about a killer." Ryan waved his hand and started the train. "You should be able to see that there is a mixed relationship between Matilda and Leon, which is a complex relationship of gratitude, fatherly love, friendship and love, not pure love."

"I promise that in the eyes of most people, there is an inappropriate love between them." How could Natalie easily believe his nonsense?

"Okay, to be honest, Nat, do you want to play Matilda?" Ryan simply made a move, and those nonsense were all in between.

"This..." Natalie hesitated a little. To be honest, this character really attracted her.

"Let me say that, Nat, as long as you perform well, those guys will definitely put the title of acting genius on you." Ryan simply used temptation, and with his past achievements, it was quite convincing.

A performance genius? Natalie was moved. She was making up stories, writing and music, she would never surpass this guy in her life. The only thing she could beat him is performance. She always had to overwhelm him in some way, right?

Besides, after so many years of hard work, isn’t it just an opportunity to wait? Ryan is now her best friend. If the status between the two is too far apart, it will definitely affect her future relationships. She doesn’t want to lose her only friend.

However, she always felt strange, but couldn't tell what was wrong. She felt that Ryan seemed to have put a trap on her and made her willingly penetrate it.

Ryan didn't say anything else. Natalie was obviously moved. When there was news in France, she would probably make her own choice.

The two have known each other for more than two years, and they have sent letters and phone calls every week, and they have almost never stopped. He did not believe the nonsense in his previous life - my future is in Jerusalem, not Hollywood - no one knows better than him what kind of ideals or ambitions this girl has, even her parents are no exception.

It was getting late, and after hanging up a phone call to Mrs. Shelley, Ryan and Natalie left the room and walked towards the hotel restaurant.

Mrs. Xie Li knew that the two were the only friends of the same age and had not met for a long time. She must have had a lot to say, but she just told her to quarrel less and to send Natalie back before ten o'clock.

Ryan heard some other meaning from it and couldn't help scratching his head. He also knew that Westerners were precocious and it was not uncommon to have boyfriends and girlfriends on the 11th and 2nd, and his relationship with Natalie was unusual, so it was normal for Mrs. Shelley to worry.

But he really doesn't have that kind of idea now, at least that's what he thinks. Look at Natalie, she is thin and weak, almost skinny...

Well, it's still a lovely Lolita, but he won't be so beastly, after all, this is his best friend.

The Western restaurants of Waldorf Astoria Hotel have a variety of meals and the chefs are also very good at it. Unfortunately, there are not many types of foods suitable for Natalie. Most of the foods in the West are added with animal fat. Although vegetarians are common, it is rare for those that are as strict as the Natalie family.

Fruit salad, vegetarian cheese bread, mashed potatoes, apple pie, this is Natalie's food. Ryan sat opposite her, and the staple food in front of him was ten-ripe steak and roasted lamb leg meat. He watched Natalie's food, and had the urge to order a whole roasted lamb leg for her.

"Nate, why do you have to insist on vegetarian food?" Ryan felt that it was a crime to enjoy the delicious food and let friends eat the unpleasant food.

"Dad's request, he said, this is a Jewish tradition." Natalie shrugged indifferently.

Ryan rolled his eyes, he couldn't understand that Natalie was a very opinionated girl. In most matters, her father could not force her, such as signing an agent contract with Jinslie, why did she become an obedient and good daughter in terms of food?

"I don't think vegetarian food is bad either." Natalie added.

"Don't you think you're too thin?" Ryan pointed to her thin arms. "Our age is a critical period of development. Plant proteins cannot completely replace animal proteins. This will affect your growth. I can guarantee, Nat, if you only insist on eating vegetarian food, when you grow up, at most I am as tall as I am now."

"Five feet and five inches?" Natalie's eyes turned, "I think this height is pretty good."

"Okay?" Ryan curled his lips, deliberately forked up a delicious steak, and stuffed it into his mouth in slow motion. Unfortunately, Natalie turned a blind eye. "I tell you, Nat, I will be at least six feet tall when I grow up. Then you stand so short in front of me, don't cry."

"I can wear high heels." Natalie's reasons are endless, "Besides, Ryan, what should women do if they grow up so tall? Well... For example, Nicole, don't mind..."

Ryan made a gesture that continued, and Natalie continued, "Like Nicole, she is a little too tall. I think it's better for women to be no more than five feet and seven inches."

He scratched his head a little, obviously trying to persuade her not to insist on vegetarianism, but why did she say that she was tall and took the initiative in the topic?

In fact, Ryan really wants to tell her that if you continue to adhere to strict vegetarianism, height may not be a big problem, but in the future, the breasts will be B or even A at most.

But can this kind of thing be said? If Natalie's personality would definitely buckle the plate of fruit salad on his face.

Ryan didn't give up and continued to persuade, "Nate, do you want some mutton? This is an authentic French roast lamb leg."

After saying that, cut off a piece and put it in your mouth, revealing a bit of intoxication.

"Is that?" Natalie rolled her eyes back, "Ryan, I heard from nutrition experts that people who eat too much meat will not only have their skin roughness, but also have a strange smell on their bodies!"

"Extraordinary smell?" Ryan glared.

"Really." Natalie quietly gestured under the table and continued, "So, you should try to be a vegetarian!"

"Vegetarianism?" Ryan shook his head without thinking. Is there anything more terrifying than not being able to eat meat? He still wants to taste the delicious food in the world in this life.

Even though Natalie was smart enough, she was still young after all. Faced with Ryan's eloquence and only a few years ago, she insisted on strict vegetarianism. Under his temptation, he tasted some lamb leg meat in small ways. Seeing that she looked unrestrained, Ryan also ate a lot of fruit salads and vegetarian bread.

After dinner, the two chatted for a while, and Ryan found an assistant and asked her to drive Natalie back.

Although Natalie robbed the topic of the topic at dinner, Ryan was still very happy. The strict vegetarians and other things were the most annoying. Now there was a gap in the corner of the wall. There was always a day to be able to pry, right?
