Chapter 118 You Are Too Unprofessional
Ebony looked at Lloyd blankly.
Lloyd was very squeamish. He had to use hot water to wash his face.
If he would not hesitate to bathe in cold water...
Ebony bit her lip.
She couldn't help looking at the towel around Lloyd's waist.
"Did you...?" Ebony considered her words and asked, "Did you erect just now?"
Lloyd was stunned and looked at her.
He didn't expect her to say these words directly.
"Is that true?"
Ebony exclaimed in surprise, "Then you are too unprofessional as an actor. You are even not as professional as me. I have no feelings for you at all!"
Lloyd, "..."
Lloyd fell silent.
He took a deep breath and asked coldly, "Should I be happy?"
"I can't say that," Ebony sighed, and waved her hand. She said, "I can just control myself better than you. I'll teach you. Next time you encounter this situation, you must keep your head calm. It is normal for a man and a woman to feel excited when they have an intimate act. This is because the body is secreting dopamine. However, you'd better not confuse your biological urge and your mind. They are two different things. It's better to stay sane."
At this moment, Ebony's cell phone rang suddenly.
She picked it up.
It was from the props team who said they had found the car keys.
Ebony hung up the phone and looked up to find that Lloyd was staring at her coldly.
She added, "I have studied medicine and have a good understanding of the human body. Anyway, next time you remember, keep calm, keep your sanity, and calm down. Generally speaking, your drive will subside quickly, and you don't need to take a bath. Well, change your clothes first. I'll wait for you outside."
Ebony found that Lloyd was a bit angry, so she didn't dare to bother him and walked to the door quietly.
After a few minutes, Lloyd came out.
His hair was still a little wet. Then he walked directly to the elevator.
Ebony followed him.
There was staff downstairs waiting for them.
Lloyd got into the nanny car. However, when Ebony was about to go up, Lloyd suddenly closed the door.
Ebony stood outside the car and was stunned for a moment.
The car sped away.
Ebony was on the spot, being sprayed with exhaust gas.
Ebony, "..."
"Ebony," a staff member on the other side called her, "get in the car?"
Ebony saw that it was Director Knapp's car, so she could only go over for a hitch.
In the car, Director Knapp was talking to the screenwriter all the time.
After talking for a while, he remembered that Ebony was in the back seat.
He turned around and asked in confusion, "Why are you so quiet, like a ghost."
Ebony raised her head and complained to Director Knapp, "Lloyd is angry with me."
Director Knapp was taken aback, "Why?"
Ebony shook her head, and guessed, "maybe my concentration is better than his, and he is jealous."
Director Knapp, "..."
The makeup artist sitting next to Ebony blushed and asked, "Ebony, you mean those two scenes just now?"
"Um," Ebony muffled.
The makeup artist's face turned even redder, "Ebony, you are always filming an intimate scene with Mr. Vasquez. Wouldn't you be tempted during the filming?"
Ebony raised her head and said, "Of course. No."
The makeup artist didn't believe it, "But that's Mr. Vasquez."
Ebony said, "I'm also a professional actress."
The makeup artist said, "But you are different. Mr. Vasquez is the dream lover of thousands of boys and girls."
Ebony shrugged, "unfortunately, he's not my dream lover. I don't like the gentleman like him."
The makeup artist was curious, "Then what kind of man do you like?"
Ebony touched her chin and said, "I like my dad's kind, soldier who has masculinity and power."
The makeup artist backed her up, "Wow, I like that kind, too."
Ebony immediately found something common to talk about with the makeup artist, "If you like, I can introduce my teacher to you when I go to the military academy."
The makeup artist nodded again and again, "Okay, okay, okay."
Director Knapp in the front-row seat could listen no longer.
He asked loudly, "What's wrong with Lloyd?"
Ebony was stunned and looked at him in confusion.
Director Knapp angrily took out a flyer from his pocket, turned his head, and threw it to her.
Ebony caught it and saw the words on it -- "Bay Fireworks Festival".
Director Knapp said, "It is the local seafood festival today. There will be a celebration and fireworks on the bay observation deck at eight o'clock in the evening. I don't care what kind of man you like. However, you must like Lloyd during the filming. Ask him to go out to play. Don't get me into trouble because of your relationships!"
Ebony flipped through the flyer and looked at it again and again. Finally, she nodded, "It is free. Okay, I'll ask him out."
Ebony took out her mobile phone and sent a message to Lloyd.
But Lloyd never responded.
After returning to the hotel, Ebony could only go to Lloyd in person.
Lloyd was talking to Ebony.
In the face of her invitation, he said coldly, "I won't go."
Seeing that Lloyd refused Ebony, Lydia said to Ebony immediately, "I'll go with you. I like watching fireworks the most, Ebs, I'll go with you!"
Ebony looked at the screenwriter, Lydia.
Lydia called her Miss Gibson in the morning, but now she just called her Ebs?
Ebony avoided the screenwriter and ran to Director Knapp.
Director Knapp had no choice but to come over to act as a peacemaker.
He called Lloyd aside to talk a while.
When they came back, he patted Lloyd on the shoulder and said to Ebony, "Put on your masks, don't get caught. "
Lydia frantically begged the Director, "They will feel bored if there are just two of them, or three people together?"
"Tsk," Director Knapp snorted and said, "it's a little conflict between the two. Why are you following them, Miss Quay?"
The fireworks show was at eight.
Ebony and Lloyd left at seven o'clock. When they arrived, it was about half-past seven.
There are many seafood sellers near the viewing platform, and some grass-root bands are singing nostalgic songs.
Ebony found that Lloyd ignored her deliberately, so she leaned over and said, "Do you want to eat something? "
Lloyd glanced at her and said lightly, "I didn't bring any money."
Ebony immediately said, "I invite you out to play with me. Will I spend your money? Do you look down on me?"
As she spoke, she took out her mobile phone on the spot and sent a message to Director Knapp.
Ebony: [Since it was part of work, I need funds to cheer him up. I don't need too much, just five hundred. And I will return the rest of the money if there is money left. However, if it is not enough, I'll apply for more funds.]
Director Knapp transferred 500 dollars to her with the words [go away].
Ebony took the money, waving the mobile phone happily and saying to Lloyd, "Let's go to buy something to eat."
Lloyd, "..."
Because they were wearing masks, it was inconvenient to eat. Therefore, they didn't buy anything but two drinks.
At 7:55, the observation deck was already full of people.
Considering that they are public figures, after all, Ebony thought it inconvenient to squeeze into the crowd.
So she found a relatively remote place.
At eight o'clock, the fireworks started on time.
The sky suddenly became colorful.
"Wow." Ebony took out her mobile phone and turned on the video.
She raised her head and looked at the splendid fireworks before disappearing very quickly, smiling happily.
For a while, she noticed there was silence between her and Lloyd.
She turned to Lloyd. When she was about to talk to him, she found that Lloyd was looking at her.
He didn't know how long he had looked at her.
In his dark eyes, there were no sparkling fireworks, but only her appearance.
