Star X Star[Skip Beat]

There was a long corridor, and even the lights in the corridor began to dim. She stood in front of him, with endless anger in her eyes, and the flames of hatred behind her, as cold as crying, and as hot as fire.

His figure froze, and for a moment he felt ridiculous that he was overwhelmed by the aura of a little girl, so he waved his hand lightly, as if sending a beggar away. "Go back and take a good look at your lover, maybe you will get tired of that burden soon."

Ding dong, the elevator has arrived.

"I won't let you go."

"It's up to you, anyway, I'm going back to the United States to deal with business after today, and I don't have time to play with you any longer."

The door opened.

"If Tsuruga Ren has any misfortune, I will make it triple on you—at any cost!"

ST stretched out his fingers together, and hooked her hand: "Although let the horse come over, but—"

"You don't seem to have any qualifications to avenge Tsuruga Lian?" The miserable underground lovers are really sad.

"Oh, is it?" The standard American pronunciation sounded abruptly in the elevator: "I would like to know, as his father, do I have the qualifications?"

A fist swung from the elevator hit Ernest's surprised face hard.

In the intensive care unit, Jingzi nervously held the hand of the person on the hospital bed.

Looking up carefully at the sofa on the other side of the hospital bed, the person with arms folded, with a perfect face, clear lines, and a posture with a ring of breasts is very similar to the lotus on the hospital bed. After careful comparison, She would not believe that they were not father and son.

Although the mouth of the person in front of him was full of color at the moment, the person who was beaten had already fallen into the intensive care unit of another hospital.

At this point, there is a more subtle sense of fit.

"...Is that... all right?" Kyoko bit her lip and asked carelessly. Although he spoke English with Ernest before, coolhuxle, or Mr. Hozu, is a pure Japanese, so he shouldn't even forget his mother tongue That's right.

The person on the sofa raised his eyebrows, obviously looking at him as equal, but it gave people an illusion of superiority.

"I said, it's about beating people." Although she was viciously happy to see Ernest being beaten, but in retrospect, he is cool. Hollywood superstar Coolhuxle beat up Wall Street's financial pride, what kind of news is this?Originally, because of Lian's evaluation of her father, she didn't have a good impression of Mr. Hozu, but judging from today's situation, things don't seem to be all like that.

As a result, Ku didn't intend to answer her question directly at all, but instead asked another question: "...Are you Kyoko?"

She nodded.

"I heard about you from Baotian." In an instant, Jingzi caught the emotion passing through Ku's eyes: "This child... has been working hard for you all this time."

"...No, no, no..." Kyoko was so flustered that she didn't know what to do: "I have always been taken care of by Senior Tsuruga, I..."

"Are you lovers?"

Hongyun crawled up Jingzi's cheek without timing, and was suddenly questioned face to face by the elders, especially Lian's father, Jingzi was too embarrassed to raise her head.

"I want to thank you for changing him. I know what kind of life he has lived for a long time." Fortunately, Ku did not intend to continue to embarrass her on this topic, but changed the subject instead.

"Excuse me—" Jingzi just looked up at Ku's expression, the guilt on his face was too real, but who knows, after all, as a top actor... "He hates you very much."

Ku nodded without any surprise: "I know." Then he sighed: "I have tried to contact him many times over the years, but I was always rejected. Baotian kept saying that it was not yet time... until your appearance."

Jingzi deliberately ignored the last sentence, "I'm very surprised, he thinks that you abandoned their mother and child, but why now it seems that you don't want to get rid of him?"

"Get rid of the relationship?" Ku smiled bitterly: "He hasn't seen how I have lived in the past twenty years."

"At that time, I just became a popular artist when I was in my teens. I was not a native Japanese. I came to Japan because of my yearning for my homeland. It was an accident to become a star." Looking at the face on the bed that resembled himself, Ku fell into a In the memory: "It was during this period that I met Jasmine."

"She's just an Italian student studying abroad, living off part-time filming for some crews."

"She loves the job of being an actress. Her seriousness and enthusiasm in acting make her different from those actresses who just want to be popular. She shines brightly... It is also because of her that I began to fall in love with the identity of an actor."

"I made up my mind that I must marry her, but the Hotsu family did not allow me to continue on this path. After I became a first-line artist in Japan by my own ability, in exchange for developing in Hollywood, I got the opportunity to continue to be an actor." license."

"When I left, I didn't know she had been around for a long time...I mean Lian." Ku closed his eyes, the corners of his eyes twitched slightly, as if he was suppressing something, "At that time, I thought that I would go to the United States to fight for a while, just If I can get the approval of my family, I can take her to me and marry her, but she suddenly disappeared. It wasn't until many years later that I found out that it was just a lie of the Baojin family to separate me from Jasmine. That's all."

"So I worked hard to find her, only to find out about Lian's existence, and then decided to let her come to the United States regardless, even if she broke up with the Hozu family. I told her, come to New York, come to me, and everything will be fine."

Yes, in Lian's narration, the direction of the story is indeed like this, but after that, there has been a huge change, which is also the turning point of everything.

"But on the day I agreed, at that place, she didn't show up."

Kyoko's eyes widened.

"I was supposed to pick her up back to the United States, but I didn't want my family to find out, so I made an appointment to meet at the airport on the pretext of work."

"Lian said, you directly gave his mother's address in the United States..."

"Yes, that's the problem." Ku opened his eyes and narrated quietly, without any emotion: "I also only found out after the fire broke out in the New York studio that Jasmine had come to the United States. During this period, I went crazy Finding her in Japan is futile. She is no longer an actress, so finding her is like looking for a needle in a haystack."

"It turned out that the Hozu family found her many years ago without my knowledge, and signed a contract with her, asking her not to continue to be an actress in public, otherwise she will take back Lian's custody. And the meeting I gave her that day Information has been tampered with."

Kyoko seems to have guessed what happened next. In the vast United States, one is a Hollywood celebrity and the other is a single mother who has nothing to rely on. There may be a barrier from the Hozu family in the middle, and they seem to be no longer intertwined.So Jasmine wanted Lian to become an actress, so that Lian would gradually have the opportunity to get in touch with her father... At this time, Ku was arranged for a marriage contract, but Lian ignited the filming set in New York under Ernest's insult and provocation to Jasmine.

Ku's narration also confirmed her guess. Ku tried to cover up Lian's crimes because of the arson. The Gallo family would not easily let the person who burned Ernest go, so they had to arrange their mother and son to take refuge in Milan's hometown in a hurry.Because he didn't want to be discovered by others, and he didn't want to be hindered by others, he didn't contact them as soon as possible. This time without the obstruction of the Baojin family, he thought it would be a good result.

But... Jasmine is crazy.

The misunderstanding that was not solved in time and the illusion of being abandoned finally led to Jasmine's suicide.

It caused his son to hate him to the bone.

Therefore, with the help of President Takarata, "Tsuga Ren" was taken back to Japan where he lived since he was a child. The psychiatrist's diagnosis of Ren was not suitable for approaching Ren in a short period of time. So far, the father and son separated again.

"I have already broken with the Hozu family, after using them to settle the arson." Ku's face looked a little old for a moment, and his eyes were tired: "Unfortunately, this decision was made too late. If I To be able to be with Jasmine with a determined heart from the very beginning, all of this will not be like this."

How can we evaluate it?Kyoko felt that what she said was not suitable. In the traditional Japanese culture where ethics is paramount, elders and blood ties cannot be ignored. Another person may not be able to love without distraction from the beginning.

The ward was so quiet that you could hear a needle drop.

"He has a good eye, and besides...you are very talented."

Jingzi went in without knowing.

"I watched the game." Ku straightened up, and looked at Jingzi before leaving: "I'll leave it to you."

"—Wait, wait a minute, don't you want to wait until he wakes up?" She is still not used to this mode of being directly entrusted with important tasks by the elders of the other party.

What responded to her was Ku's meaningful smile.

"Cherish it well, maybe in the future, he will go to Hollywood."

not understand.

Hozu-san, what do you mean?

Come here and tell her a bunch of inside stories, then pat her ass and leave?

And what about going to Hollywood?

My son may not be able to walk normally after waking up. Do you want to go to Hollywood to be a public welfare ambassador with a disability?Is this kind of routine that always has its own way and arranges it is hereditary—! ! !

She was very conflicted in her heart, but no matter what, she and Lian were the only ones in this room.

Looking at the sleeping handsome face on the bed, what I recalled in my mind was the sentence——

[Live. ]

Unexpectedly, this is what was left to her.

[I want him to live... that's all. ]

"Stupid..." Mosquito-thin murmur overflowed from her lips, and she clenched him tightly in her palm: "Idiot! Tsuruga Lian, you idiot, what did you say to me to live like this, you are completely imitating me! You are going to die and still use your acting skills to influence me, you idiot, idiot, idiot, big idiot, if you really die because of this..." After holding back for so long, recalling what happened today, she finally let go I burst into tears.

"If it's true... to die like this..."

Common sense, it should be: "If you really die like this, I can't live anymore" and so on.

"—I will definitely whip the corpse!!"

"Pfft—" The person on the hospital bed suddenly reacted violently, jumped up suddenly, and then hammered the mattress sideways.

When he turned his head again, there was a sad face facing him.

Reaching out to cover his lips, he couldn't stop smiling. The handsome man in the hospital gown in front of him laughed so hard that tears overflowed, "Mogami Kyoko, what kind of values ​​do you have? Why did you think of whipping the corpse when I died for you?" -"

The sad face remained.

"So you're not dead yet."

"I didn't die at all! The doctor just said that I might not be able to walk normally."

"Oh, you also know that the doctor said that you may not be able to walk normally." His tone remained unchanged, and he paused every word.

"Uh...uh." Realizing that the situation is not good, Tsun He Lian played sloppy eyes: "Hurry up and wipe your face, the makeup is all gone."

"Tsuga Lian!" Kyoko's face was written with the words: "Leniency for confession, resistance to court death".

"When did you find out..." Her performance didn't look like the way she just found out.

Jingzi nuzzled: "Is the doctor's acting skills exaggerated?"

As a professional actor, if she can be fooled by the doctor's performance, she can also go home from this industry.The key is that the combination of the doctor's performance and the behavior of Tsuruga Lian before, she remained skeptical, and what happened after Lian "woke up" just now strengthened her thoughts.

"I just said that the problem is not with me!" Tsuruga Lian looked "as expected".

——The Cannian face is about to zoom in.

The man on the hospital bed hurriedly became obedient, like a puppy being punished by its owner.

"Before you explain to me, please tell me why you want to hide it from me? Are you afraid that I will be found out if I cooperate with you in acting?"

Tsuruga Lian sighed softly: "I'm afraid that your acting is too similar."

"what?"

"If you think about it too much, maybe you won't have that sense of reality. In fact, in this scene, it's not me who is really going to act, but you. Only if your performance makes Ernest think it's right, then it's right."

Jingzi was at a loss: "What's going on? When did you start planning this?"

"Really...do you remember the time I went to your school?"

"what?"

"I said it was to distinguish me from Tsuruga Ren, and to contact me and Tsuruga Ren. At that time, I deliberately went to find you, but I didn't disclose Tsuruga Ren's identity. I wanted people from JBS to deliberately contact us. Get up, but I don’t think I’m Tsuruga.”

"...?"

"Then Gui Ya proposed to make the final stage layout and the final game setting. With his usual style, no one would find this proposal strange." Lian continued: "Before that, Ernest and I were already at war. His personality will definitely not let me get the final role position, otherwise everything he did before is a joke. So in the last game, we deliberately used this trap to lure him to make a move. Cain, Tsuruga Ren and Mogami Kyoko The entanglement topic, let jbs shareholders agree to arrange the two of us as a gimmick in the acting duel, and it will not feel awkward, of course, the premise is that you have passed the previous round of competition."

"Because a special person is responsible for secretly monitoring the anomalies in the crime scene, so we found that the props were really tampered with."

Jingzi couldn't wait to interrupt him: "Then you still..."

"Originally our plan was simpler, that is, to push the boat along the way, and let me fall directly in the accident that the wire was disconnected. In fact, there is a buffer mechanism where I fell that cannot be seen by your angle and the camera. I fell The position, speed, etc. are calculated precisely, and although there is a certain danger, it will not cause real harm, just like filming."

"Did you do this to... show Ernest?" Although it sounded very relaxed, she didn't think so after experiencing the scene, and she subconsciously clenched Lian's hand.

Lian shook his hand and responded: "This is to end all of this."

"First, satisfy Ernest's desire for revenge and let him stop as soon as possible; second, seize the opportunity for him to frame me, create internal public opinion, let jbs shareholders recognize his essence, and exclude him; third, let The unequal game originally determined by the jbs veteran union ernest was terminated."

"Hey... But your body is healthy, the lie will be exposed sooner or later, right?"

"So what, what the doctor said was that I 'may' not be able to walk 'normally', after that just say I'm actively doing rehabilitation and I'm recovering. As for ernest, who was caught framing me for evidence, Another "symbolic" revenge on me, for him, there is no need to waste time on me anymore."

"At the same time, the influence of public opinion caused by my injury on the jbs stage can make the Chiba family use this as a basis to properly deal with the members of the board of directors who colluded with Ernest this time to gain a firm foothold, reconsider the protagonist of "Seven", and kill three birds with one stone have to."

Mogami Kyoko was not stupid, but Tsuruga Ren's series of explanations still left her dumbfounded.

"You're just an actor, it's... great."

"It's a pity..." He suddenly thought of something, and his eyes turned dark: "My acting skills have not fooled him after all."

"Him?" Jingzi thought for a while, "You mean, your father?"

"He's not my father." Lian turned her head away, writing displeasure on her face like a child.

After sighing, Kyoko stood up slowly, stretched out her slender hand, and let him lean on her chest: "Mr. Tsuruga, for the sake of my hard work as the backdrop for the indirect conversation between the two of you, give him and myself a chance." , think about it once."

"...Some people are wrong, but they are not the only ones who are wrong."

If it weren't for that fire on the New York set...

If he can spend time with his mother in Milan...

[Kyoko, he asked me to give this to you. ]

In the wastebasket in the ward lay quietly a letter signed "Mogami Sprouts".

What if, all if, could turn back time.

Shuibo Qingcheng, in fact, you are not blaming this world.

I understand, I understand.

You are to blame, but yourself, for not living well.

It has grown tremendously.

It's okay, I'll always be by your side.

always...
