Superstar
Chapter 70: Embarrassed encounter
One of the most troublesome things to buy furniture is to transport it back. At present, the only four Hugo people are the Volkswagen Golf of Joseph. This is not a vehicle suitable for transporting furniture, and the second-hand furniture market does not provide door-to-door delivery services. , So you can only transport a part of it back at a time, and then keep people on the second-hand furniture market.
Hugo was sitting at the door of the second-hand furniture market. He was sitting on a black palm sofa with two table lamps, two birch chairs and some trivial gadgets stacked next to him. He also held one in his arms. Vintage gramophone. It looked like a gypsy wandering around. Because he was homeless, he could only stand on the street with some scattered luggage, looking very embarrassed.
Just now Carl borrowed a pickup truck from a friend. It is much more convenient to transport furniture with a pickup truck, but he needs to go to his friend to get it, so Carl took the subway to get the car. Alex and Joseph returned with a batch of furniture, leaving Hugo alone to guard the newly purchased furniture.
Hugo was studying the phonograph in his arms at this time. In the early 1990s, compact discs (CDs) had been widely used, gradually replacing vinyl records and cassette tapes and becoming the mainstream media in the music market. Vinyl records that once dominated the market withdrew. In the historical stage, although in the mid-1990s because of its preciousness and classics, there was a wave of collecting wind, but after entering the 21st century, many vinyl records can no longer be found, and even people with phonographs Disappeared from his sight.
Hugo used to see the phonograph as if he was looking at an antique, but today he is really holding a phonograph, which feels very novel. In fact, if you want to talk about convenience and habit, Hugo is a generation of digital music. He is accustomed to using Internet downloads to communicate with music, and the production of music is more dependent on digital methods such as computers. But for those who study music, the status of vinyl records is difficult to replace.
The empty inspiration and sense of presence of vinyl records cannot be replaced by optical discs and digital music. Compared with the rough digital sound of optical discs, the sound quality of vinyl records is the carrier closest to the original sound. The carrier presented in the most authentic way.
Hugo had listened to vinyl records once before crossing, and this kind of music carrier has been unforgettable so far, so today I encountered a gramophone in the second-hand furniture market, and Hugo bought it without hesitation. Originally, Joseph wanted to dissuade him, but when he remembered how Hugo was immersed in music last night, he didn't say anything more, which was regarded as acquiescence to Hugo's behavior.
"You should go to the record store on Sunset Boulevard." A slightly hoarse woman's voice rang not far away, and gradually approached Hugo.
As soon as Hugo looked up, he saw Uma Thurman in a shirt and jeans. Her back was facing the sun, so that Hugo could not see the expression on her face. Only the soft blond hair was in the sun. The next shining brightly, "Then I think I first need a bookcase that specializes in storing vinyl records."
Uma looked at Hugo in front of him, a simple plaid shirt with straight jeans, a pair of white canvas shoes were already messy, with messy furniture piled around, and a phonograph in her arms, looking like she had been driven out. The down-and-down artist in the family is obviously going to starve to death on the street, and still clings to his baby and doesn't want to bow his head. This appearance is so different from the Hugo in Uma's memory that she can't help but laugh, "You...the appearance today is very special."
After Hugo recalled the entanglement between his predecessor and Uma, he had the kiss at the premiere of "The Last Analysis", and he was calmer when facing Uma again. Hearing this, Hugo looked down at himself, then smiled and said, "If you give me another pair of gloves, I wonder if anyone would invite me to move home. This should be a good part-time job."
"Haha." Uma was amused by Hugo, "I think there will be many people who are willing to invite you, as long as you are willing to unbutton a few more shirts." Imagine a handsome guy with a solid chest carrying it. work? This is definitely a plot that makes countless housewives fantasize, which is similar to the fantasies of plumbers and firefighters.
Hugo obviously understood the meaning of Uma's words, looked down at his chest, then smiled and said, "I hope I won't let them down."
The exchange between Hugo and Uma, the temptation between words. The confusion couldn't be more obvious, and there was a touch of heat between the two people's eyes. However, Uma was standing in the sun at this time, and Hugo was sitting in the shadows, so Uma felt that the sun was a little dazzling, and Hugo also felt that Uma’s expression was a little vague and unpredictable, and the two had to move away. Look, let your tired eyes rest.
"Hey, Uma, did you come here to buy furniture too?" Hugo raised his head again and asked actively. I don't know why, but Uma chuckled, making Hugo think he had said something wrong.
Uma also seemed to realize his rudeness, and quickly reduced his smile, "No, I just think that when you call my name, the pronunciation is very strange."
"Uma?" Hugo didn't understand, so he spoke again.
Uma couldn't help but laughed again, that **** lips bloomed in the sun, just like a blooming tulip, exuding a charming fragrance. While smiling, Uma waved her hands again and again, "It's not your fault, it's not your fault." Hugo's face was inexplicable, and the corners of her mouth were drawn involuntarily.
"That's it, don't you think my name is weird?" Uma explained quickly, but there was still a smile on his face that didn't completely dissipate. "Others have been laughing at my name, thinking that my name is. It’s ridiculous. So many times, I will use the names of ordinary girls like Linda and Kelly to meet new people. But when you call my name, it’s surprisingly nice."
"It sounds good?" Hugo raised her eyebrows, which made Uma shyly avoid Hugo's smiling eyes, and then she realized that she seemed to be boasting. Hugo went on to say, "Is it because I called your name by singing with music?" The name Uma is pronounced very full, but it has some simple rhythms.
Hugo's explanation made Uma laugh directly, "Your name is really good, at least I think it has too many characteristics compared to ordinary Linda and the like, which makes you unique. Get up, don't you?" Hugo went on to say, the gentle and gentle tone was not ostentatious, but it made Uma feel very comfortable and easily relaxed, "Does your name have any special meaning?"
"You are the first person to say my name is nice." Uma stood there, looking at Hugo seriously with her beautiful blue eyes.
Hugo curled his lips and said indifferently, "I hope your parents will not be sad after hearing this."
Uma smiled again, "No, they won't. This name represents their cherishment and hope for me. It is the name of a **** in Hinduism."
"Although I am not a Hindu believer, this name really suits you." Although Hugo's words are simple, they don't have any unfamiliar feelings. They make people feel very comfortable, especially the faint smile on the corner of the mouth. The warmth is so comfortable.
Uma finally confirmed his inner thoughts. The Hugo in front of him was different from before. The previous Hugo was also sunny, but the former Hugo seemed to be sharper, as if the sun was dazzling. Although it was dazzling, it would still It makes people unable to look directly; and the current Hugo is still the sun, but it is more gentle, even if you look directly at it, there is no harm, on the contrary, you can clearly feel the warm temperature.
To put it simply, the previous Hugo was more dangerous and stimulating; but now Hugo is more attractive, the warmth is almost intoxicating.
"I think I will gradually adapt to my own name." In fact, Uma has not been able to get out of the shadow caused by the specialization of her name until now, but in Hugo's soft words, Uma feels that it seems The name is not that bad either, at least it sounds very good in Hugo's mouth.
Hugo nodded with a chuckle, and then asked, "You haven't told me what are you doing here? Is it buying furniture?"
"Oh, no, I'm going to have dinner there." Uma pointed to a restaurant not far away. After speaking, she hesitated for a while and proactively sent out an invitation, "How about, would you like to be with me? I’m alone tonight.” In fact, after the last premiere of "Final Analysis", Uma wanted to invite Hugo~www.wuxiaspot.com~ but in the end she didn’t say anything. After all, Hugo took the initiative. She was still a little awkward when she refused the invitation. Today she finally took the initiative to speak.
Hugo raised his eyebrows, seemingly surprised, but he didn't let Uma stay in place for too long, and then smiled and said, "I just moved to a new house, and there are still a lot of things to do today. I still have friends at home. I'm waiting, I'm afraid it won't work. I'm really sorry, I hope next time."
Although he was rejected, Hugo's tone was not repulsive. Uma buried the disappointment in his heart very well, showing a smile, "It doesn't matter." Then he changed the subject, "Did you move to a new house today?" "
"Yes, I just moved here." Hugo thought about it and said enthusiastically, "If you have a chance in the future, you can come over as a guest. I will live behind Sunset Plaza." Hugo said to himself. The address of the new home.
"On that small hill?" Uma naturally knows the area, "I live there too, as if it's only three streets away from your home."
"Haha, that's a coincidence. I have a chance to come out and sit for a while." Hugo's words were full of sunshine and sincerity, which made Uma feel absent for a moment, but he reacted quickly and deeply. Glancing at Hugo, "Then I won't bother you. My stomach has already begun to call for food. I'll take care of this first issue first."
"You can leave quickly, because my stomach is also awakened by you. This is not a good thing." Hugo's teasing made Uma haha laugh, and this time she didn't continue to say anything. He waved to Hugo, then turned and left. The slender and elegant back reflected a graceful light in the sunlight.
