Chapter 7 There Was Something Wrong with His Brain
On the bullet screen in the direct broadcasting room.
-- [? What's wrong with Ebony Gibson?]
-- [She's cursing in the show. Why doesn't the staff intervene with it?]
-- [There is no rewind. Did she really tell Victor Torres to assemble at 7:30? If it is true, isn't she using her position to get even with Victor for a private grudge? By the way, what private grudge do they have?]
-- [Come on, Vic does not know flop Ebony in the entertainment circle at all. I suspect she likes Vic, but she failed, so she hates him!]
-- [Stop here. Flop Ebony should quit the entertainment industry. Judging from the dirt on her including fighting and promiscuity, she's simply rubbish.]
-- [I'm late and missed many of it. But Lloyd is in the show and I'll certainly follow it.]
There posted lots of bullet screen comments.
But the people on the scene could not see it, so they were not affected.
And then, Jacob Silva fetched the air ticket. Seeing they had quarreled, he pulled Victor away from them.
She was not directed at you. Jacob lowered his voice and said, "Now that it has begun. All her behavior must be arranged by the show."
Victor was stunned, "Mr. Silva, you mean ..."
Jacob was not familiar with Victor, and he could only pat his back, "Wait and see. This is a live show. The audience could distinguish whether Ebony did it intentionally."
Victor didn't realize it until Jacob said it. Ebony aimed at him so obviously without any reason in a live show. What she had done to him was quite terrible so his fans and the audience would hate her very much and they would show more sympathy for him.
Victor suddenly thought it was good luck for him and cheered up when thinking of it.
He was thinking, 'Does Ebony behave in this way because she loves me very much? She helps to win favor for me and improve my popularity by self-deprecation?'
It seemed to be like this when he thought about it. And then, Victor was suddenly enlightened.
He knew that Ebony had never felt any warmth in the Gibson family. Only he cared for her a lot when she was at a low ebb. How could she resist the unique care? She was so stupid that she might love him crazily. Perhaps she also suffered heartbreak when she scolded him and told him the wrong time.
When thinking of this, Victor immediately swept away the haze. He returned to be handsome and caring that he had been in front of the camera.
After a while, when all the members gathered, Ebony found Victor smiling at her?
She wondered, 'What's wrong with him? He's so happy since I scolded him? He's really got cancer on his left brain?'
"Aboard."
The first stop was in Freolor.
On the plane, Victor tried to find a chance to talk to Ebony alone, but he could only give up because there were many people and he was afraid they would see it.
As soon as Lloyd boarded the plane, he began to sleep. Ebony added some medicine helped to sleep into the electuary, so it was normal he felt sleepy.
Others also seized the chance to take a rest.
Twelve hours later, they arrived in Freolor.
Before getting off, the staff told Ebony, "Come back here."
Ebony came to him.
The director immediately asked, "You temporarily replaced someone to attend the show. Didn't your agent tell you clearly? Though you are a steward, you are not allowed to manage the five guests. You are actually their servant, taking care of them is the first and the most important thing."
"Didn't I take care of them?" Ebony leaned to the cabin next to her, squinting her eyes, and said lazily, "Aren't I to buy the medicine for Lloyd?"
What she had said made the director choke, "But you are fierce to them."
Ebony replied, "Director, this is your subjective view to judge whether I'm fierce to them. In fact, I'm rather gentle."
The director pulled a long face, "I don't have time to tell you so much. You'd better remember your identity anyway. Be kind to them. They are all made of china, especially Mr.Vasquez. He's an antique while you are a cylinder made of tile. You must listen to them. Understand?"
"Oh," Ebony responded casually, "Okay."
The plane landed and everyone got off.
Outside the airport, the staff of the show officially told them the rules of this trip. In short, they, five guests as well as a steward, were given 100 euros as their living expenses for three days. They had to arrange their accommodation and meals themselves. Their task was to tick off at least five local tourist attractions. And 100 euros also included the fare to the spots.
100 euros was less than 800 RMB.
Everyone was shocked when hearing it.
Victor asked gently: "Can we use our own money?"
"Of course not," the staff of the show immediately stepped forward to take away their wallets and mobile phones. He then gave them mobile phones that could work locally.
The six people instantly became poor. And during this process, Lloyd was standing in the most off-center position, rubbing his forehead lazily.
Ebony took the time to look at him. She saw that his face was normal and he was no different from normal people, so she diverted her eyes.
Teri Holland said, "Find a hotel first. Who knows there are cheap hotels nearby?"
Victor smiled, "I arrived here last year. I remember there seemed to be a cheap hotel near the airport. Let's go and see it?"
Others were fine with it. Rita Obrien glanced at Ebony and asked on purpose, "Steward, you don't speak after you get off the plane. Weren't you fierce at home, were you? Shouldn't you take charge of it since we are facing a bleak situation? Is it..." Rita blinked, " Is it because you can't speak English? So you're afraid?"
Ebony pulled her trunk to walk in front of her, "First, Freolorian is the main language in Freolor. This is common sense and I hope you remember it. It's okay to say this before me but you behave like a fool before foreigners, which seems to insult our country. Second, before getting off the plane, the director particularly warned me that I must listen to you. He said you are china, antique while I'm a tile cylinder. So I've decided to follow you no matter what you say."
Rita glared at her, "You..."
Teri mediated, "Let's go. Victor, lead the way."
Victor glanced at Ebony without being noticed and then led the way in front.
Ebony walked at the end. Lloyd was silent next to her.
.
To be honest, it was strange for Lloyd to participate in the show.
After walking for half an hour, they finally arrived at the so-called cheap hotel. Rita and Teri wore high-heeled shoes, and their feet were almost broken. When asking the price, they were told to pay 25 euros for each room.
"We only have 100 euros in total but there are so many people. It will cost 50 euros even if we are willing to squeeze up to arrange for men to live in one room and women in one room. We'll spend 150 euros on accommodation for three days except for the meals and fare."
Victor was also a little embarrassed, "This is the cheapest hotel nearby."
Teri hesitated, "How about living here this evening and looking for another one tomorrow?"
They had to do it. They checked in two rooms and half of their living expenses disappeared for an instant.
The standard room was crowded, and Rita disliked it very much. Teri didn't say anything while Ebony showed no expression on her face.
After putting down the luggage, they said they were hungry. But when they saw the price of the food in the hotel, they decided to go out for food.
They didn't see Lloyd when they gathered. Teri asked, "Where is Mr. Vasquez?"
Jacob was about to answer, Victor said, "The staff said he went to the hospital."
"Let's go first and bring him some food."
They went out together, and Ebony still looked asocial.
"Ok, here it is," Victor had been to Broysea and they subconsciously regarded him as their leader. He chose a restaurant with many people having meals there but others were worried that it would be too expensive.
Victor said with a smile, "It's the first meal here anyway. Save it later."
Everyone could only agree with him after he said it.
When Ebony went in, she glanced at the signature dish of the restaurant.
White wine scallops.
She liked to eat it.
At this time, a dim gaze suddenly rested on her and she raised her head. Victor and she stared at each other. There seemed to be something in his eyes and he even suddenly smiled at her.
Ebony didn't understand. She wondered, 'Is there really something wrong with his brain?'
They couldn't order too many dishes. But they spent 25 euros in the end since there were so many people even if they had saved a lot.
"It's not enough to do anything with this money," Rita complained.
Lloyd had returned when they went back. Jacob couldn't help frowning when seeing Victor give Lloyd the food holding in his hand taken from the restaurant in a complaisant way.
"Forget it," Teri patted Jacob's shoulder behind him and whispered, "Young people are all like this. They will try hard to flatter the stars who are more popular than them."
Lloyd didn't eat the food taken back by Victor. He only said, "I've had it."
Victor was very frustrated. In front of the camera, he showed a depressed expression and murmured, "I'm a big fan of Lloyd."
Jacob almost got stunned when seeing it.
Victor flattered Lloyd in different ways before him. But as soon as Lloyd left, he pretended to be poor in front of the camera, implying that Lloyd didn't appreciate it and hurt him.
