Chapter 436: The Best Is The Next Heavy Rain(1/2)
The morning sun shines on Los Angeles, and the calendar is turned to February 1, and a new day begins. The spacious luxury dining room is full of breakfast. Some daily newspapers such as the Los Angeles Times are also placed on the dining table, and Madeleine is still busy beside the kitchen cabinet.
“Is it safe?”
Lily just sat down in the chair and was about to get the newspaper, but stopped to ask her mother opposite the dining table.
"All checked." Tavorman looked at his daughter's expression, not bad, "Lily, mom discusses something with you."
"What?" Lily flipped out the Los Angeles Times and read it casually, with one page missing from the entertainment page.
"Will we tell the school about your health, okay?" Tavorman asked.
Lily immediately looked at her mother and frowned two thick and long eyebrows, "Are you afraid that my academic pressure will be too high?"
"Yes, mom is worried about you." Tavorman smiled comfortingly.
Students with adhd will receive different assessments and treatments, such as reducing the amount of homework, and more time for tests and exams.
Harvard-West Lake is one of the top private schools in Los Angeles, and the top 30 best high schools in the United States. It is not a public school that allows students to stumble on their lives. It usually takes 1.5-2.5 hours to do homework in each subject every day. There are many students who read all night in order to test.
In addition to studies, there is also the pursuit of extracurricular activities and the cultivation of talents in various aspects, which has generally reached a cruel point.
Lily has always had high demands on herself and tried hard to prove that she is not a playboy. But she is an adhd patient, and her recent situation is very bad. She still has to stick to her previous pace of life. How can Tavorman not worry?
"No." Lily said solemnly, "I have twice the exam time. The next day, the whole school knew that I had adhd, and the third day, the whole world knew that I had." She smiled, "I'm fine, I've already let it go."
Tavorman had to laugh, "Then don't force yourself, it's okay to have a poor grade. Just don't skip classes and do bad things. Mom has no requirements for you now."
"Okay, ma'am." Lily nodded, "I'm adhd, but I'm not a fool. I don't do bad things. I still have so many good things to do, I can't be busy!"
She looked at the newspaper again and suddenly said, "That guy got the Oscar nomination for Best Director, I knew yesterday. I just wanted to say." She looked at her mother, "When he made a movie, my judgment was right, you were wrong. But... about what kind of person he is, it seems you are right, haha."
"Baby..." Tavorman wanted to say something, blinked, and said, "Come on."
Lily nodded and continued reading the incomplete newspaper.
...
After school in the afternoon, various activities began, including numerous news organizations, interviews, writing articles, busy school newspapers, school magazines, etc.
The Journalism Society wants to make a special report on the recent Congress legislation to tighten the immigration policy of the United States. It has interviewed on campus. Many of the students are new immigrants and second-generation immigrants, so they naturally don’t like the austerity policy. However, the key issue is the legalization of illegal immigration, so their attitudes are different.
Some people say they oppose it, believing that this violates the spirit of the United States' constitution and will also lead to the country gradually becoming corrupt; some people say that it is worth discussing that the problem of illegal immigration is becoming increasingly serious and if it is not governed, the country will further fall into chaos.
The interview team went to the Los Angeles office of the Citizenship and Immigration Services for a visit today.
At this time, in the bright deputy director's office, several men and women in the crew set up camera positions. Lily, who was in charge of the interview, was talking to Brown Arquette, the deputy director on the other side of the desk, about the interview questions. After agreeing, Arquette smiled happily: "Miss Collins, I am a fan of your father. Can you give me a signature?"
Lily laughed at first and nodded, "Yes, I will send it to you, a signature album."
"Thank you so much." Arquette was overjoyed when he heard this.
When everyone set up the camera and turned on the camera, Lily smiled and looked at the direction of the camera and said, "Hello everyone, I am Lily Collins. Today we have the honor to interview Mr. Brown Arquette, deputy director of the Los Angeles office of UCIS. Thank you for accepting our interview."
"You are polite," said Arquette Le, feeling very honored.
"The domestic immigration law will be reformed recently. Please introduce to us the situation of illegal immigration in Los Angeles?" Lily asked calmly.
"Of course." Arquette answered immediately.
...
"What's going on with this newspaper? I said I don't have to do this anymore."
The morning sun shines, and in the dining room of the mansion, Lily raised the "Los Angeles Times" in her hand, looking at her mother with some annoyance, "What did Ye Wei do again? Yesterday was his birthday, right? What did he do again?"
"No." Tavorman said truthfully, "that boy did nothing, today Monday, there was his column."
"Oh yes. Mom, don't have to do this again in the future." Lily sat down in the chair, "He doesn't need to cut his column. It's completely fine, it's over."
Tavorman looked at her daughter. A few days ago, she cut her long hair into medium and short hair and permed it into slightly curly. She looked much more mature and refreshing, and looked very beautiful. Knowing that information isolation is just a buffering measure, it is time to end, so she responded.
"The Charity Association is preparing to hold an Oscar charity event. This year our school is very impressive. Jack Jilinhale is nominated and "The Little Beauty of Sunshine". We want to hold an event for children." Lily looked at the newspaper and said, "Mom, what suggestions do you have?"
As the president of the Beverly Hills Women’s Club for many years, Taverman was a master at the event and asked, “What form do you plan to do?”
"Everyone said it was easy to watch the party and asked me to invite a few young stars to be guests, preferably that bastard Ye Wei." Lily said with a clear laugh, "Don't let him join the fun at Kodak Theater, he won't win the award anyway."
Seeing her relaxedly making Ye Wei's joke, Tavorman was very happy, and Lily was really letting go.
"And who knows if that guy will rush onto the stage to dance a striptease, we can't let that happen."
Lily said while laughing, her mind fluttering.
No matter how Ye Wei celebrates his birthday, what does it mean or what does it matter?
She saw through this incident and didn't know when it started. Everything in the past was just wrong fantasy, and those were real misunderstandings.
Ye Wei did not lie. He went to San Francisco to beat that woman more for his own revenge, not her hero; he broke up with Nina because of her, maybe because of Emma Roberts, and was beaten up by Emma afterwards, or because of anyone else.
It's not because of Lily Collins, that's why.
He didn't take this relationship seriously and just played. He was not as serious as she thought. He was just a little hippie. Those so-called sweetness were his way to pick up girls. In the blink of an eye, it could be Nina Dubov, in the blink of an eye, it could be Amy Rosen, and he still had an ambiguous relationship with countless girls. Now he just dated at the same time and did not hide it.
She was just like this and had such a relationship, and she was fascinated by the fact that she thought about it now, it was so funny.
Whenever she thought about this before, a weak cry would sound in her heart: No! Just hate Ye Wei now, don't put him in the past. Don't forget that he is in Hawaii, don't forget... His tattoo is meaningful, he must have some difficulties. He and Amy Rosen were drunk, crazy, seduced, and made mistakes on impulse...
Then he was giving up on himself, and he had the scandals he heard. In fact, he didn't have sex with those women...at least he was numbing himself and not very happy...
I heard that he was in Kauai Island, Hawaii two days ago. Lily was so insomnia that she was noisy by the sound. Will he go there and will life go into the unknown again.
Not sure why she was driven by some mentally retarded force, she turned on the computer and went online and saw gossip news about Ye Wei and Anastasi Ashley playing on the beach.
The sound finally disappeared. He was indeed a bad person. She misunderstood everything with romance. The truth was so ridiculous.
It seemed as if he had jumped out of a quagmire and was no longer an instructor. Lily could see clearly. She and him were not born together. Her ancestors were insurance merchants, while his ancestors were soldiers, one sold insurance and the other worked hard.
He had said a humorous romantic saying before: "Come to the world to find you is a pursuit that flows in my blood. If you buy insurance and go to the battlefield, you will not be afraid of death."
But the fact is that it is impossible to get along with anything, it is all illusions. She began to hate these memories, these love words, his hippie smile, and he would only keep saying beautiful words, but without a single word of calculation. It was really disgusting.
The more I think about it, the more I hate it... It is also considered to be some beautiful memories, and it is also considered to be.
Let yourself look at it in a mature and calm manner. Lily thinks that Ye Wei is a good person in some aspects, and is not particularly bad now. It’s just... it turns out that they are not suitable for each other, and their attitudes towards this relationship are different, and their pursuits in life are different. Now that I have figured it out, I have no feelings anymore, and I can let go, feeling relieved.
In fact, there is no need to forget it deliberately. Maybe when will you see it again? You can also laugh at the recent situation? Who knows?
...
The reading area of Harvard-West Lake High School Library is quiet, with students reading books, doing homework, and tapping on their laptops.
One of the long tables was filled with stacks of book materials, and several girls were busy writing papers in history subjects. Lily was writing a paper on a course on world and European history, flipping through books, loading materials into her laptop from time to time, thinking about her own views.
"Hi, hello, can I sit here?"
The girls turned around and saw a tall and handsome boy with curly hair, a person from the basketball team. He looked at Lily, obviously asking her.
Triste and others laughed. In the past, no one in the school dared to pursue Lily because of her family background and her vision. She was not good at the young boy in the middle school. Soon she became Ye Wei's girlfriend. She was not clear about her ex-girlfriend, but now it is well known that the two of them have really passed.
I have been chatting with each other recently and there are too many people pursuing Lily, both inside and outside the school, from the basketball team, baseball team, fencing team, drama club, journalism department... all handsome and outstanding boys want to win the favor of this princess.
Lily is friendly and kind to everyone, and she doesn't know which one she likes.
"As long as you keep it quiet," Lily smiled slightly, "We have to get this done before the end of this class."
She patted a stack of books in front of the table, then continued to knock on the laptop, her eyes turning brightly.
The girls watched the handsome guy sit at the long table quickly, and were separated by Lily, but they were so happy that they were dancing with joy.
...
"The Little Sunshine Beauty" won two awards at the Oscars, making Harvard-West Lake campus very happy. The charity observation party held at the Rugby Theatre that night was also very successful.
Within two days, Viy's new scandal caused even more sensation among students. Oscar he and Scarlett Johnson had a chance that night! This is not Du Chen-Koros, Amber Hilder, or the like, Scarlett Johnson! This scandal was then crazy because of Johnson's admission to visit the set of "Soul Surfers".
"Brother Wei told me that God's breasts are Scarlett Johnson's breasts. When you sleep on her breasts, all your dreams will come true."
The big nose Lev's words became a popular quote on campus, and it should be said that it was Ye Wei's words. The boys were envious and jealous when they said it; some girls sighed, some called Cool, and when Triste and others heard it, "Disgusting!"
Disgusting, nothing else but disgusting, only disgusting. This is Lily's feeling of heart, and then she is a little self-deprecating, and a little strange: Why did I once love him so...
No, I don’t love this Ye Wei, but the one I misconceived.
He is no longer here and will never come back. Even if he becomes better or worse in the future, he will die.
After returning home that day, Lily kept wandering around the house, feeling that there was something she should do but didn't do it, and she always seemed to have forgotten something and what she was wrong...
What is it?
What exactly is it?
Think about it, what exactly is it?
That box! Lily suddenly thought that she put all Ye Wei's things back into the box again, including the Jane Eyre doll, and then threw them into the storage room and stopped caring about it. Why not throw them away? They are all meaningless and valuable gadgets, so why are they still put them there for?
Throw it away, throw it away today.
Lily came to the storage room to find the box, looked at the "2003-112004-7" written on the cardboard box, and looked at the "frankly, my-dar, i-don't-give-a-damn." Maybe this is his real thought: I don't care at all.
Since we don’t care about each other anymore, why keep it?
Lily held the box and was about to throw it into the trash can in the back alley of the house. She thought again, if someone picked it up again and was turned over by the paparazzi, it would be really bad. What should I do...
Soon, I got an idea.
To be continued...
