The Greatest Showman - Chapter 2342
[2305 Island Holidays]
Felicity, Mendelssohn and the others stood in the distance, watching Renly and Hashiber who were talking cordially, with a look of interest in their eyes.
“I bet the mayor is asking for autographs for his relatives,” Mendelsohn said earnestly.
“No, it’s too paediatric, I think Mr. Mayor is inviting Renly to come here on holiday on behalf of the Maldives.” Ritz also joined the discussion.
Felicity stood beside her and laughed, and although everyone was discussing it, she always just smiled and watched without joining in.
Wen-Jiang said decisively, “I think he should be inviting something more personal. Why not, I hope Renly can have dinner with him, and so on. Believe me, if Renly auctions a dinner ticket to the public, there will be countless Rich people spend their money generously.”
In the midst of the bustling discussion, Renly finally said goodbye to Hashiber, waved goodbye, turned around and walked towards the actors’ positions. They all closed their mouths, then looked at Renly with scorching eyes, expressing their confusion and curiosity.
Ren Li raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked with his eyes: What’s the matter?
“What did Mr. Mayor say?” Mendelsohn asked curiously.
Renly’s footsteps paused for a while, and he could smell a little bit of trickery. Originally he wasn’t going to say anything, but now it’s interesting, “How about, talk about your bets? Let me see, who is the best. Come closer? Then I’ll see if it’s worth my share of the stake.”
“Oh, Renly, how can you look at us like that? Who do you think we are?” Mendelsohn immediately made a face. Disappointed look, expressing strong condemnation.
“He thinks that Mr. Mayor is asking for an autograph. Ritz thinks that Mr. Mayor should invite you to come over for vacation. I think it may be a more personal matter.” As a result, Wen Jiang did not wait for a second and directly interrupted Mendel. Sen, hurriedly said the answer, “Felicity, and Tony, how about you? Hurry up, Renly is waiting to make a bet.”
Mendelsohn’s depressed expression only stayed halfway Seconds, and then eagerly added, “It’s not just autographs, I think it’s a lot of autographs, maybe asking for one for each of his relatives and friends, there is still a difference between them, you can’t talk nonsense.”
“I think Mr. Mayor may just want to express his gratitude.” Tony pretended to be innocent, which caused everyone to complain collectively, “Cut”, and Tony, who became the target of everyone’s siege, raised his hands anxiously, “I What did you do? Why are you treating me like this? I mean it seriously! Really!”
Then,
everyone was arguing, but Renly, the party involved, was ignored.
Felicity, who was not involved from beginning to end, silently came to Renly’s side, with a smile in her eyes, “You did it on purpose, right?”
Renly shrugged lightly and greeted him innocently. Felicity caught Felicity’s gaze, which made Felicity unable to hold back her laughter.
But the eyes gathered on Renly finally turned away – the mayor invited him to the mansion?
Although Renly knew that this should be part of Asian culture, he had never received an invitation of this level in his last life, and he couldn’t be sure whether it was a custom or not, and it always felt a little weird.
However, it would be naive to think that this is all there is to it.
When the crew landed on the island, they could see a crowd of people gathered on the tarmac from a distance. Although the scale was not as large as the Male Airport, they were still crowded into a black place, and the lively scene was coming. , so that everyone on the plane cannot be easily ignored.
Even Felicity began to tease, “It seems that our welcome ceremony is not over yet, thanks to someone, our vacation trip should be very relaxed and comfortable, and we can enjoy royal treatment, which is good. It’s
too rare. If I miss this time, I don’t know if I can feel it again in my lifetime.”
Someone who was teased spread his hands, “Then from now on, you have to treat the gold master well.”
Having said that , Jokes aside, but Renly was actually a little uneasy.
Male, and then the island, such a solemn and formal welcome is far beyond imagination, and even makes people wonder if all the situations of the entire island have been ordered and dispatched, just to welcome the arrival of the crew, Showcasing Maldivian hospitality and cordiality.
It was really hard for Renly not to think of those Huaxia news from the previous life—
could this be considered a special offering?
But now that they were all gathered together, it seemed even more impolite to turn around and leave, so Renly could only suppress his inner guess, joined the crew, walked towards the crowd of people who were picking up the plane in front of him, and hugged his belongings again. Welcome to the traditional culture of Maldives.
…
After the crowd gradually dispersed, Renly’s nerves were also slightly tired. No matter what the truth behind the activity was, these lovely villagers were innocent, and the smiling faces were indeed welcoming them. Arrival, which made Renly cheer up and respond.
Although a little tired, the effects of jet lag still loomed, but Renly’s face stretched brightly in the blooming white magnolia flower – which was put on by a dark-skinned middle-aged woman for him , Rough calluses and rough fingers rubbed against the skin of his cheeks like a scrub, but those sincere and enthusiastic eyes made Renly feel the softness in his heart clearly, and he smiled and bent down to accept it.
He doesn’t know what he looks like now, it may be funny, but he knows he won’t hate the big smile on his face now.
Turning around, Renly saw the girl three steps away, who seemed to have been waiting for him behind him, and he couldn’t help but smile and meet his gaze.
The dark brown skin has a healthy luster and seems to be able to capture the traces of the sun’s flowing slowly, exuding a kind of youthful childishness and publicity all over his body, those black and white eyes staring at Renly brightly and intently. , Wei Wei was a little shy but still didn’t look away. Instead, she revealed a faint curiosity, exploring up and down, like a girl who was studying natural science.
And Renly was the one being studied—he felt like a bamboo worm or a dragonfly.
“What the hell is that Renly guy doing?”
“Don’t you guys feel like ‘Alien ET’? The collision of innocence and imagination, carefully approaching each other.”
“Then who are you talking about ET?”
“Of course it’s Lan Li, nonsense.”
“…Does Renly know what you think?” The
cool sea breeze sent the crew members laughing and discussing, joking and booing was really lively, but Renly and the girl still kept their distance from the original The ground, neither speaking nor moving, it seemed that neither of them were ready to break such a deadlock, which also became a rare sight.
The crew of “Rogue One” was divided into three groups before and after, arriving at the small island where the filming base was located, and the residents of the island once again organized a warm welcome ceremony. The simple and sincere smile became the best postcard, which made the crew members They all felt their own uniqueness.
Compared with the madness and enthusiasm of the Male Airport, the islanders are much simpler, with purer smiles and bolder eyes. Although the voice of support is slightly inferior, it is filled with a kind of warmth like “going home”. Instead, the crew members all relaxed.
Leaving the tarmac, the crew members were waiting for the shuttle bus to go to their accommodation, and their group undoubtedly became the focus of attention, and it even made people strongly doubt whether the entire village had already come out.
Here, Renly is not the absolute focus, but the behind-the-scenes staff who carry cosmetic cases, simple photographic equipment and large suitcases. , trying to explore the secrets inside.
On the contrary, Renly, who had always been surrounded by circles like a queen bee, was now alone, and standing in front of him was the only girl left.
Renly looked at the girl; the girl looked at Renly.
The two of them stared at each other stubbornly, and neither of them spoke first, as if they were playing a game, and the corners of their mouths began to move. Both refused to back down.
“Hee hee.” In the
end, the girl couldn’t hold back her laughter. She covered her mouth in a panic and blocked all voices, but her crescent-like eyes still leaked. Knowing her true emotions, the turbulent smile overflowed little by little.
With that, Renly’s smile rose.
“Haha! You!” The girl raised her finger and pointed at Renly, cheering triumphantly, celebrating her “victory”.
Renly didn’t defend, but spread his hands and made a big grimace to express his “disagreement”.
This made the girl smile even brighter, and when she smiled, she tilted her head and changed her perspective, her eyes still stayed on Ren Li, and then she saw Ren Li also turned her head and kept her eye. Keeping the same pace, she couldn’t help laughing loudly. The crisp and hearty laughter brightened the whole world. Those blue sky, those sunshine, those sea breezes, everything was so beautiful.
“So, are you an actor?” The girl asked loudly, but her slightly immature voice deliberately pretended to be an adult.
Renly nodded earnestly, “Yes.”
A violent sea breeze blew, and the magnolia flower that was pinned to Renly’s ear was blown down, and slid in an arc in the air, but lifted the girl’s right hand and grabbed the flower nimbly. , a big smile bloomed on his face, and then he pinned the flower to his ear, that bright and brilliant smile made the flowers eclipsed.
