After Catherine hesitated for a while, she finally shook her head and refused: "Let's forget it. I don't want to go over and disturb her work. And I have no interest in filming, and it's very boring to go there. It's better to stay at home, watch TV and practice
Practice the piano.”
Chen Feng stopped persuading and nodded: "Then I won't go. The filming should be completed in about twenty days at most, maybe within two weeks."
If Chen Feng were to shoot this movie, it might take at least half a month to complete it, because he has the original work in his mind. However, he is only a junior director now, and he wants to improve on the original work, or make it better.
It is very difficult and basically impossible to make this film better than the original one.
But now it is handed over to Marcia, a recognized top director in Hollywood, and it is different. Based on the "excellent script" provided by Chen Feng, Chen Feng believes that Marcia can make a movie that is better than the original work.
After he had just finished talking to Catherine, he looked at Betty and asked in a natural tone: "Did you also stay at my place yesterday?"
After Betty looked slightly stunned, she said with a natural expression: "Yes. I chatted with Wenxiu and Catherine too late last night, so I didn't go back. Besides, there's no one at home, so it's better to be lively here. You
Would you mind if I stayed here a few more days?"
Chen Feng couldn't help but frown. He really didn't expect Betty to stay. This didn't seem to be in line with her personality.
"What's wrong? Did it embarrass you?"
Seeing that Chen Feng didn't answer, Betty asked cautiously.
Chen Feng glanced at her, sighed secretly in his heart, and then said to her: "Come with me, I have something to tell you alone."
"Ah...ok." Betty agreed quickly after a moment of hesitation.
The two of them didn't go far and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window. It was twenty or thirty meters away from the sofa and five or six meters away from the piano. Catherine and Zhao Wenxiu had no intention of eavesdropping on their conversation and continued to sit down.
Eat snacks and watch TV.
"Betty, let me tell you the truth, it is impossible for me to accept you. I love Miranda very much, and she loves me very much. So, I am really sorry."
Chen Feng is such a straight man. He doesn't want to drag his feet. Before, he didn't tell the truth because he didn't want to embarrass each other. But now Betty is trying to stay at his house and not leave. This somewhat breaks Chen Feng's bottom line, so he doesn't care about the embarrassment.
Well, it would be better to clarify the matter directly to make it clean and clear.
Betty didn't expect Chen Feng to speak so directly. Her face immediately turned pale, and her lips trembled slightly: "I...I don't understand what you mean? You...do you think I have fallen in love with you?"
Chen Feng frowned slightly and said: "Okay. Just pretend that I misunderstood what you meant. I think there is still a sense of distance between you and me. We can be friends, but we must not try to break through the relationship of friends. And you
It feels to me now that you want to break through this friendship and develop further with me. This is impossible, and I don’t love you. I don’t want to do anything that would make me sorry for Miranda, so I
You can only be friends, not lovers, let alone lovers."
These words were even more direct. Betty finally couldn't stand the feeling of being rejected so directly by Chen Feng. Her eyes became moist and her body swayed slightly.
Seeing this, Chen Feng quickly said softly: "Don't be like this. You are a very good and outstanding woman. If I could meet a woman like you before meeting Landa, I would definitely fall in love with you. But God's will
Funny, we met too late. I have already given my love to Landa and cannot give it to any other woman. We can actually be friends, the kind of good friends. Many times, what you don’t get is better than what you get.
It’s even more worth cherishing.”
Chen Feng's words had some effect. At least Betty's body was no longer shaking, but tears still flowed down uncontrollably.
"You... you're right. I fell in love with you. But it's not my fault. It was you who showed your charm to me step by step, and then made me slowly fall in love with you. Originally, I
I thought love would never be possible again in this life. Who knew it would come so suddenly. It's really not my fault. I didn't mean to break up you and Landa, I just... I just wanted to be with you as much as possible.
Together, I can see you at any time."
Chen Feng could only sigh in his heart that he was too good now. A man who was too good would have the trouble of being secretly loved by many good women. This can only be blamed on this cheating system, which made his appearance and skills better and better.
There are more and more, and of course the wealth is also increasing.
If you are rich, talented and so handsome, you will be attracted to people of the opposite sex who have normal sexual orientation. This is a law between the sexes.
"Betty, I can understand your feelings. But please also understand mine. In fact, Randa already knows your feelings for me. So, she didn't want to date you anymore from the beginning. It's better for me to stop.
You should know what happened before. Now that she is not at home, but you have come to live in my house, can she be happy in her heart? I told her yesterday that you would definitely go back to your home last night
Live. She also believed it, but you didn’t go home yesterday, and you even thought about staying here for a few more days. If you were Landa, would you be willing? "
Betty stretched out her hand to wipe the tears on her face, lowered her head, and said in a low tone: "Okay. I understand. I'll go home later. From now on... I won't harass you anymore."
This look and tone made Chen Feng feel uncomfortable in his heart, but he also knew that he should continue to be disturbed by it, so he could only be cruel and said: "Don't say that. We will still be friends in the future. If
If Landa is free, she will also invite you to her home. Or when we are all free, we can visit your home or go out to play together."
Betty laughed at herself and said, "Stop comforting me. I know that I didn't inform Randa beforehand and came to live at your house, which has angered Randa. She will definitely break off diplomatic relations with me in the future."
Chen Feng said in his heart, you are self-aware this time. Why didn't you have it before? If you hadn't said just now that you would stay here for a few days, I wouldn't have shown you my cards.
Chen Feng still said: "No. Randa was a little angry at first about what you said, but later, after I explained it to her, she understood. After all, she encountered a car accident and a shooting.
It’s understandable that you’re afraid. Besides, you really don’t have any family at home, so it’s really pitiful to be alone at home.”
As soon as she said this, Betty felt even more sorry for herself, and tears fell one by one. She has no relatives in the world now. She still has a few relatives, but they have been estranged for a long time and have not been in contact for a long time.
Oh. Besides, these relatives are all people with ulterior motives, and all of them are greedy for her family wealth. If you get close to them, you will be asking for trouble and death.
It's just that she doesn't have any relatives or anyone close to her now. Even if she has a lot of money, living in this world is really pathetic.
Chen Feng also knew that he had said the wrong thing and quickly said, "Don't be like this. You are still young. I believe that you will find someone you love and love you in the future. By then, you will get married and have children.
Now that I have my own family and relatives, I won’t feel lonely anymore.”
Betty's psychological quality is still good, otherwise she would have collapsed long ago when her parents died first, then her husband, and all her relatives died. If her psychological quality were not strong enough, she would have collapsed.
After hearing what Chen Feng said, she immediately controlled her mood. She stretched out her hand to wipe her tears, looked up at Chen Feng, and said with a forced smile: "I'm sorry for making you laugh. I just couldn't control it at the moment."
, it will inevitably make you sad to think that you are alone in this world without any friends."
After hearing what she said, Chen Feng felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. He could only continue to comfort him: "Don't worry. I just said that you are still young. And there are a lot of men pursuing you. You can choose the best one among them."
, you will no longer be alone.”
Betty shook her head and said, "She's not the person I like. I'd rather die alone all my life."
When Chen Feng heard what she said, what else could he do to persuade her? He could only let out a long sigh.
"I'm really sorry. It's because of my affairs that I have made things difficult for you." Betty quickly adjusted her mood, raised her head slightly, and smiled at Chen Feng, but there were still tears in her eyes, which made the smile look even more serious.
of bitterness.
Chen Feng avoided her sight, turned to look out the floor-to-ceiling window, and said with renewed determination, "You can leave after lunch."
Seeing Chen Feng's attitude, Betty was so disappointed that she almost shed tears again, but she still managed to control it and said softly: "No, I'll leave in a moment. Do you have anything else to say?"
"
"...No. You don't have to leave in such a hurry. You can have lunch and play with Catherine, Wenxiu and the others for a while before leaving."
"Then let's see. Anyway, I'm going home today, so don't worry. I won't embarrass you."
After Betty finished speaking, she turned around and walked towards Catherine and the others as if nothing had happened.
Seeing this, Chen Feng secretly sighed, then turned and walked upstairs.
When Chen Feng came downstairs at about 11:30, Betty had already left. There was no one in the living room downstairs.
Chen Feng heard the noise in the kitchen and walked over. Zhao Wenxiu was the only one busy in the kitchen.
"Wenxiu, is Betty gone?"
Zhao Wenxiu raised her head and glanced at Chen Feng, nodded and said: "Yes. She left almost an hour ago in the car she called. Brother, did you tell her something before that she didn't live here?
Already?"
Chen Feng didn't deliberately hide anything from his cousin. He nodded and admitted, "Your sister-in-law doesn't like her staying in our house all the time. I don't want her to live here all the time either."
Zhao Wenxiu sighed and said: "I've seen it a long time ago. She likes you. If I were my sister-in-law, I wouldn't want a woman who likes you to live in my home. Isn't this inviting a wolf into the house? But Betty is really nice.
, she is a lady, with a good temperament and a good temper, and she has no airs. Catherine and I both like her very much."
Chen Fengxin said that if she wants to please me, she must please you and Catherine. One of you is my cousin and the other is my apprentice. Can Betty be negligent?
However, I can only think about this in my heart, not say it directly to my cousin.
"She is indeed a nice person. It's good to be friends. Well, don't think too much about it, and it's not good to talk to your sister-in-law."
"oh……"
After saying that, Chen Feng ignored his cousin. He came out of the kitchen and went straight to find Catherine. He knocked on her door first, and then waited until the voice of "Please come in" sounded from inside, then Chen Feng opened the door and walked in.
Catherine was sitting at the desk by the window reading.
"Why didn't you practice the piano this morning?" Chen Feng asked naturally. There was only a ceiling between his room upstairs and the piano in the living room on the first floor. If she was practicing the piano, Chen Feng would hear it.
"Not in the mood." Catherine said in a dull voice.
Chen Feng frowned slightly and asked with concern: "What's wrong with you?"
Catherine pouted slightly and said nothing. Seeing this, Chen Feng was sure that she had something on her mind, so he added: "Is there anything you can't say to me, your master? Who made you unhappy?"
Catherine glanced at him and said with a pout, "Don't you like Betty?"
Chen Feng couldn't help but be stunned and asked: "Why do you say that?"
"I saw it in the morning. After you went to talk to her, she came back with red eyes. Then not long after, she called her driver and asked her driver to drive over. When her driver drove over, she left. Originally,
She said she wanted to stay here for a few more days, but after you talked to her, she left in a hurry. It was obviously because of you. Isn't it? "
Can Chen Feng still deny it? Obviously he can't deny it. He could only smile bitterly and said: "Don't you see it? Betty seems to like me a little, but I already have a girlfriend. Now Landa is not at home, but she has been staying here
I won’t leave home. Do you think it’s appropriate?”
Catherine lowered her head slightly when she heard this and said in a low voice: "But you can't drive her away. She is very pitiful. She has no relatives at home. She will be alone when she goes home."
Chen Feng sighed and said, "There's nothing we can do about it. She and I are just friends, and it seems like she doesn't want to be just friends with me. I can't do anything to make Landa sorry. Do you understand? You are still young now, so you may not
I understand the emotional problems between us adults. In short, if I continue to let Betty live at home, it will be bad for me, her and Randa."
Catherine dissatisfied: "I don't understand the feelings of you adults. I only know that she is very pitiful. You can't drive her home so rudely. You are not a gentleman. It makes her very sad."
"Okay. You are right. I am indeed not a gentleman in this matter. But the matter has been done, and it can only be like this. I can't invite her over again, can I?"
Catherine muffled: "Then you can send me to her home. I can go to her home to stay with her for a few days. It's too pitiful for her to be alone."
