Chapter 219: girlfriend?

The trial meeting is over, and the rest is naturally time for fun. Taylor and Christine play together with other children, while Scarlett followed Ed Carmel’s assistant to visit the studio. Only Ryan is the only one. People sit in the dining room, looking at the imaginative layout.

In the restaurant, you can see the images of animated characters and dolls made by Pixar everywhere, and even many seats are covered with various cartoon images. It is more like a children's playground.

"Cream ice cream, I should remember your taste correctly." Ryan placed the ice cream tray in front of Natalie, "Want to taste the strawberry flavor?"

"No, thank you." Natalie picked up the spoon and squeezed her lips, her deft tongue licking her lips from time to time.

"I don't know how it tastes." Ryan murmured casually, and put a large mouthful of ice cream drizzled with strawberry jam into his mouth.

"When are you going back to Mexico?" Natalie asked casually.

"I'll take a while." Ryan rolled his eyes. "Nate, can you go to Mexico for a visit in a while?"

"I'm only fifteen years old without a guardian. Do you think you can go abroad easily?" Natalie seemed a little moved, but then she shook her head, "Dad won't agree."

Thinking of Natalie's father, Ryan can only cover her forehead. Natalie almost fell out with her father in her previous life, which can actually explain some problems.

"Then... you can always be the heroine of my short film, right?" Ryan stared into her eyes, "Don't refuse, okay, Nat."

"Short film, what kind of short film?" Natalie swallowed the cream in her mouth, a little curious.

"Don't worry, it's definitely not from the San Fernando Valley..."

"Ryan!" Natalie's brown eyes stared directly at his sky blue eyes, her small nose wrinkled, "Ryan Jenkins, have you eaten too much strawberry jam?"

"Oh, my God, what did I just say?" Ryan was appropriately confused. Natalie then laughed, "Come on, Ryan, serious, what is going on?"

"That's it." Ryan replied with a serious look, "Starting in November, the college’s 507 course...well, it’s the basic producer course. It will require us to make a short film of about five minutes, although there are Teaching assistants. But from the script to the actors to the shooting and editing. We need to do it ourselves."

"Sounds interesting." Natalie seemed interested. "Are you going to be a director?"

"No." Ryan shook his head, "I want to play multiple roles as screenwriter, director, and editor. This is for us to learn the entire production process of the film."

"Okay, okay." Natalie gave a sly smile. "You have to come to New York. And, what about the pay? If there is no figure that can impress me, I won't agree."

"Ten dollars, dear Nat?" Ryan deliberately pulled out his wallet.

"Well, I reluctantly agreed." Natalie mentioned another condition again, "but you have to shoot in New York!"

"Why not Los Angeles?" Ryan spread his hands on the dining table in confusion.

"Dad doesn't allow me to ask for leave at will." I don't know when, Natalie put her left hand on Ryan's right hand and tapped his slender finger lightly, "Ryan. We only met twice this year, last year I've only seen it once, and I... don't want to be like this."

"Sorry, Nat." Ryan shook the hand hard, "I will visit you often in New York in the future."

"you promise?"

"I promise!"

Listen to what Ryan said. A faint smile appeared on the corner of Natalie's mouth. She was always a winner, didn't she?

After lunch, when they left Pixar, the two little guys took advantage of their age and asked for a whole set of related dolls, even the iconic little lamp, each took two.

"My dear, if you continue to do this, Pixar will go bankrupt." Ryan warned them in the car going back.

"You are too stingy, Ryan, we should move the biggest one at the door."

Natalie came to Los Angeles with her assistant. It was a rare occasion to come to the West Coast. Especially Ryan temporarily put down her work and took her to play around, which made her especially happy. Although the two-day vacation was fleeting, she was very quick. I found the reason and notified my parents, planning to stay a few more days.

Limited to their identities, Ryan simply took Natalie to the campus of USC without even thinking about going to densely populated places.

"You can also apply to this university in the future, Nat." The two wandered between the khaki buildings. After Ryan introduced the film academy, he began to agitate, "You can take the sat test as soon as possible, as long as you get the result. It's not too bad. I can find a way to get the college to pass the application so that we can be alumni."

Although it is somewhat difficult according to the method he said, if there is a large donation, it is still somewhat possible.

"No, Ryan." Natalie looked at the statue of Van Punk in the distance, and said firmly, "I've decided, I'm going to the Ivy League school."

"Forget it, let's not talk about it. Let's take me to your dormitory. I have never been to a university apartment." Natalie suddenly changed the subject.

"Well then, go here."

That being the case, Ryan did not insist anymore, and led Natalie to his temporary resting place, to the third floor, opened the door of the room and took a look, and saw that the roommate was neatly dressed and was playing with small photographic equipment. Only then did Natalie walk in.

"Hi, Ryan, why are you here?"

"Nate, this is Darren Bousman, my roommate." Ryan did not answer, and started an introduction, "Darren, this is..."

"Matilda! Oh no, Miss Natalie, it's nice to meet you."

"It's nice to know you too." Natalie shook his hand gently, tugged Ryan's sleeve, and whispered, "Let's go to your room."

"Ah... I suddenly remembered that the guy Chen asked me to help, so I'm leaving first." Darren Bousman patted his head, picked up his jacket and ran out.

"What a weird person," Natalie muttered.

"He misunderstood." Ryan shook his head.

misunderstanding? Is it really a misunderstanding? Natalie is not the little girl she was a few years ago.

Entering the bedroom, Natalie looked around. The layout is very simple. Except for the desk, single bed and wardrobe, there is no other furniture, but it is very neat and tidy, which is obviously different from the residence of the single man in the legend.

"I usually rest here at noon, and I rarely come here at other times." Ryan fetched a can of juice and stuffed it to Natalie.

"Not bad." Natalie walked onto the balcony and said playfully, "I can experience the feeling of college in advance."

"Hi, beautiful lady, can I invite you to dinner?"

Suddenly, other male voices floated over from a balcony on the left, and Ryan frowned and walked to Natalie's side, "Yes, Reese, if you are willing to take up the entire restaurant."

"Rui...Ryan." The guy waved his hand apologetically, "Is this your girlfriend, God, this is big news! I'm rich! Chen, come here, come and see, Ryan takes His girlfriend is back to the dorm!"

Damn it! Ryan couldn't help covering his forehead, these guys with big mouths!

Nat won't mind, will you? He squinted at Natalie, and saw the girl with a faint smile on her mouth, as if she was enjoying the good show.

"Where, where, let me see! Let me see!" There were several heads sticking out from the balcony on the left. It was just a few classmates who got along well with Ryan.

"Why does she look familiar..."

"It seems to be shorter and younger, Ryan is too much."

"Come on, David, you forgot, Ryan is only sixteen years old."

"But, she is a little too short, and she is not so beautiful. There are several girls in the school cheerleading team who are pursuing Ryan. They are much more beautiful than her."

"Shut up! Reese!"

"Hey, Chen, don't hit me on the head."

Natalie's face turned black, the smile at the corner of her mouth disappeared, her brown eyes kept flickering, and a faint cold and arrogant temperament exuded.

"You guys, shut up! Reese, David, Darren, Chen, I remember you!"

"It's not fair, Ryan!" In Chen Jiazheng's shout, a group of people disappeared without a trace at a faster rate than when they first came.

"These guys." Ryan murmured and shook his head.

Although the start of school is not too long, he often comes to rest at noon, and he has become acquainted with them, and sometimes makes small jokes with each other.

"Don't mind, Nat, these guys are sometimes too energetic." Ryan simply pulled Natalie back into the room.

"I didn't care." Natalie sat on the chair in front of the desk, took a pencil casually, and slowly turned it between her fingers, "Ryan, is there really a girl chasing you? Is it the captain of the cheerleader? ?"

"Someone stuffed letters and photos in my locker."

In the first week of school, the photos and letters he received can be packed in sack, "I never went to the places written in the letter. George can testify about this."

"Come onRyan, it's your freedom to go or not, don't tell me." Natalie got up and wanted to go outside, "I want to go back to the hotel, you can send me back. "

Looking at the girl's back, Ryan also smiled.

"Nate, will you accompany me to the premiere tomorrow night?" Ryan asked the girl beside him when the car stopped in front of the hotel.

"Is it "Scream 2"? Natalie lowered her eyes, as if thinking.

"We can skip the red carpet and go directly to the theater." Ryan can roughly guess what she is thinking.

"okay then."

When Natalie's back completely disappeared in front of the Four Seasons Hotel, Ryan started the car, and the smile on the corner of his mouth grew thicker.

Nat! Ryan murmured, the idols of the past life and the friends of the present life gradually merged together.

Natalie has finally grown up! ()
