Capítulo 39: Chapter 39 The Third Tear X (1)
"Hi. "
"Hey. Jenny stopped and greeted James, "Haven't you had dinner yet?"
James raised the burger in his hand at her, "Obviously, I missed the meal, but if you have the chance, don't miss this burger, just two blocks away, Jim's kitchen, double cheese, lots of pickled cucumbers, if there's anything worth breaking your vows, it's going to be this guy." "
"Thank you. Jenny chuckled, but James' words did make her feel empty in her stomach - normally the theater doesn't include dinner, and after most of the day's rehearsals, her stomach was rumbling. "When I don't need to perform on stage, I definitely go and enjoy it. "
"You poor actresses. James shrugged his shoulders habitually, "Relax with yourself, now you're acting in a musical, if you're abusing yourself like this at this point, what are you going to do when you're making a movie?
Jenny's rehearsals have been relatively smooth these days, but James doesn't come to inspect her rehearsal progress as often as before, the two haven't seen each other for a few days, and they feel a little reluctant to say hello and leave, Jenny knows that this is a sign of a good impression of each other, but unfortunately according to Cesare's schedule, this good feeling will not have a chance to continue to develop. "Maybe my words are disappointing, but the truth is, staying in shape is a long-term job, and you know that the human body is addicted to salt, and if you quit and eat a good burger, then your cravings for salt and sugar will ruin your ability to continue eating salad, so-"
Jaime gagged his ears and grimaced, "Just make me happy and fat, Hell, I'm just a poor theater manager." "
Jenny laughed, she wanted to go, but she still couldn't take a step, "Dietrich has a party next Monday, will you go?"
Monday is generally the lowest point at the box office, and it is also the day when many troupe members are off.
"I was supposed to go. Jaime looked at her and grimaced, "But now that you're going, I'll have to change my mind—you know I'm going to do something indecent when I'm drunk." "
This was the first time they had talked about the two kisses at the Christmas party, and in fact Jenny had a feeling about it, that James should have regretted the two kisses that day, and he was a little drunk at the time. So in the past few days, he has been very serious about her, and he no longer even plays cheap, this is all in order to re-establish the relationship between the two people and return to the professional category. An elite like him, who can become a theater manager at a young age, will certainly not let himself be led by the nose by the lower half of the body, and then mix professionalism and emotion together, adding an element of instability to this appearance that they all value.
So the emotional world of adults is more complicated, Jaime from the beginning of flirting - clarifying that it is a joke - talking about the importance of Jenny's loxie to him - saying that he will pursue her again in six months - stealing kisses twice, during which the battle between sensuality and reason can be written a short story, Jenny, as a bystander who did not drink, can understand the difficulty of reason struggling between alcohol and desire in hindsight, and even more understand James's regret for his performance that day, she nodded approvingly, and resolved it with teasing," Yes, if you do it again, I guess there will be rumors in the troupe that I got on the throne because I slept with you. "
Jaime laughed, "Oh, that's nothing, we all know that in my theater I have the right to the first night of the actors. "
The two of them looked at each other and smiled, but they felt a faint layer of embarrassment missing, and Jaime asked her with concern, "How are you getting along with your colleagues? I mean, there wasn't any Bully incident, did you?"
Jenny thought for a moment, "There were probably some very sporadic moves, but not much, don't worry, there's nothing I can't handle." "
"Yes, you're a good communicator," said Jaime, who was now clearly torn back and forth between the desire to 'talk to Jenny more' and the sanity that you can't mess with your big actors, so completely absent-minded, thinking where to go. "I mean, I have a good relationship with Dietrich, but I didn't get an invitation from her for Monday's party, and she invited you. "
It was not the first time that Jenny had seen the effects of her beauty on others, and it could not be denied that her vanity was satisfied to a certain extent, and she wanted to have mercy on Jaime so that he would not continue to be 'tormented' by her, but Jaime's words made her heart move.
Dietrich and Jaime have a friendly relationship, which she can see, their interactive body language is very intimate, judging from James's words and his cute style, he is not the kind of high-minded theater manager, Dietrich used to call him when she had a party, it is normal to be invited, and it is not normal not to be invited. Moreover, Dietrich called her, a new actor who was selected for Locksey at James' insistence, and showed obvious favor to her, so she thought that Dietrich would also call Jaime with her ass, so that the distance between the three parties would be shortened quickly, and a small group could soon be formed.
After all these years of training in the wealthy young milk group, Chen Zhen is very sensitive to these things, she swallowed the goodbye she was about to say, "By the way, James, about the day of the third audition, I want to ask you, did you specifically tell Dietrich to ignore me, so that I can have more psychological pressure?"
Jaime snorted, "No, but she's doing a good job, she's a smart girl, she sees my intentions and cooperates—why do you suddenly ask about that?"
"Just a little bit of a mind about how she behaved that day," Jenny replied, and she bared her teeth too, "thank you, now I understand." "

After thinking about it, Jenny went to Dietrich's party anyway.
First, she didn't believe that Dietrich could do anything earth-shattering at the party, this is a society governed by the rule of law, the party is in her home, and she is responsible for anything that happens. Dietrich knew how James would be angry with Jenny if she was hurt in her apartment and delayed her plans to take the stage.
Second, she also wants to see what Dietrich wants to do, and solving the problem before going on stage is always better than going on stage and finding that her clothes are torn. And in Jenny's view, Dietrich plays Velma, there is no conflict of interest between the two, there may be some misunderstandings between Dietrich and her, and they can be resolved, after all, the two of them are partners, there is no need to make it too ugly.
Speaking of cultural differences, foreigners' favorite social entertainment is definitely to party. Although Jenny had no idea what was fun about a group of people dressed up and chatting there with wine glasses, she still attended a lot of parties with wine glasses and chatting, of course, there was a difference between a party and a party, such as Lillian's New Year's Day party, which was wearing a small dress and holding a red wine glass, and the party on the Hollywood actors' side was hot pants and beautiful women singing and dancing, and a bunch of men and women with excess hormones hooking up with each other on the dance floor, which was basically a dating platform.
Dietrich's Broadway neighborhood is a little more artistic, and her apartment in Soho, though not big, is very bohemian, and feels like a totemic museum, full of all kinds of mystic tapestries, and things like that.
Jenny actually felt something was wrong in the hallway, and as soon as she entered the room, she immediately realized that she had made a wrong decision.
It stinks.
The whole room was almost full of the stench of hemp, Jenny couldn't even breathe, and in the dim light, the room was full of lazy limbs, and the music was very ethereal... Jenny didn't need to be particularly smart to understand that she had been invited to a special kind of party.
Whether it is Chen Zhen or Jenny, they are not too strange to drugs, Chen Zhen's ex-husband's family is very strict about this thing, because they can often hear that a business partner/friend who is not familiar with each other, the second generation of the family is taken by a fox friend with ill intentions to become addicted to drugs, usually this kind of story is accompanied by the tragic ending of the family wealth is scattered. Chen Zhen's father-in-law directly let go of the cruel words, once he tried it once and was found out, all family property was deprived, personal freedom was lost, and he could never get rid of the surveillance bodyguards wherever he went. So whether it is her or her ex-husband, although she has been in contact with some mysterious people to recommend 'rejuvenating drugs' to them, she has never had the idea of trying, and Chen Zhen has also cut off contact with several old classmates from film schools for this reason.
As for Jenny, the original owner, she went to a public school with a poor campus, so poor that she couldn't even make up the funds for the drama club, and the quality of the students was so poor that you can imagine how poor the quality of the students was. The smell is sometimes this in the entire school corridor, and some people sell small portions and twenty small plastic bags directly at the school gate. When the original owner Jenny went to a party when she was a student, she also took a few puffs on the hookah, but because the amount was insufficient, there was only a slight hallucinogenic effect, and after waking up, she felt very nauseous and wanted to vomit, plus poverty (Chen Zhen felt that this was the main reason), so it was just that, and there was no further in-depth contact. But in this environment, of course, she knew how common this thing was, in fact, in Jenny's previous school, smoking this was the same as smoking, and it was not treated as a drug, and it was generally necessary to smoke more advanced methamphetamine and cocaine to attract attention.
In the circle of Los Angeles, in fact, it is almost the same, the hookah of the party Jenny has been to after she was reborn is very common, of course, she will never touch it, but the general environment is like this, and it is impossible to accuse others of anything, at most she can shut up, anyway, she doesn't attend many parties, and she usually goes early. At Rob's Christmas party before, when someone brought this out, she left first, and didn't stay to mix it up at all.
However, this is the first time she has participated in such a party with a pure theme of big hemp. And now it's too late to leave, Jenny has seen several of her colleagues, and of course Dietrich, all of whom have seen her too. It is conceivable that if she turns around and leaves immediately, her relationship with these people will definitely fall to the freezing point in the future. If these people publicize it again, then 80% of the whole group (Jenny thinks it may be higher) will think that she is a hypocritical Bitch, and then it is estimated that there will be a real isolated Bully incident on the set.
"Hey, Dietrich. Jenny thought for a moment, then greeted Dietrich with a smile on her face, "Thank you for inviting me to the party." "
People who have smoked this thing are very slow to react, many yoga masters smoke this thing before meditating to help themselves get into the state of 'meditation', Dietrich smiled at her after two seconds, she had a cigarette in her hand, she hadn't lit it yet, and when she saw her coming, she put on the hookah in the other person's arms while lighting the light and took a deep breath, and then handed the new cigarette to Jenny, "Hey, you're late." "
"I'm not very familiar with the area and I'm a bit lost. Jenny said, pushing away the cigarette roll Dietrich had handed her, "No, no, thank you." "
"What?" Dietrich's eyes widened slightly, and her voice raised, "You don't smoke?"
The surrounding guests, who had been leisurely immersed in the happy world, suddenly looked over, and the colleagues Jenny knew showed expressions of 'why are you pretending to be like this'.
"I can't. Jenny said. "You know I signed with CAA, and my agent was a jerk — he told me to do drug tests regularly. "
If she hadn't thought of this excuse in the blink of an eye, Jenny would rather be bullied than flash, but now that she feels like she has a smart pearl in her hands, she wants to get the best of both worlds.
Who knew that when Dietrich and her friends heard this, they all laughed, "Oh, dear, unless you do it tomorrow, it's just a big hemp, and you won't be able to check it out in a week." "
Fuck, I'm a veteran of the Drug Test...
Jenny scolded secretly, shook her head and said, "I did a hair inspection, I'm sorry, I can't take this risk, the broker's policy is very strict, once Unclean, I will be fined six thousand yuan." "
She opened her mouth to make up a nonsense, which won the sympathy of most people, but Dietrich still seemed dissatisfied, and she relentlessly put her cigarette back in Jenny's direction, "Really?"
Jenny was now very suspicious and disgusted with her, she thought for a moment, but instead of hurrying away, she grimaced, took it first, put it on the end of her nose and pretended to smell it greedily, as if she wanted to smoke, but at the last moment she took it again, threw the cigarette roll on the ground, and cursed deliberately vulgarly, "Shit! I can't—I really can't." "
Everyone laughed, and someone said, "Oh, poor little thing. "
Dietrich didn't seem very happy, but Jenny didn't give her room to speak, "God, I'm sorry, Dietrich, your carpet - don't move, I'm sorry to spoil you, I'll clean up, I'll clean up." "
She bent down to pick up the cigarette roll, snuffed it out, and went to the kitchen to get a damp cloth to wipe the carpet so that it would not be baked by the cigarette and cause a fire. The group was like a cozy fish, reclining on the carpet, on the futon, on the sofa with great interest, or with their eyes closed to enjoy, or looking at her curiously and dimly.
After Jenny cleaned up, she said hello to Dietrich and a few colleagues and hurried away. Long after walking down the street, I felt that she still had that sour smell on her. She suppressed the disgust and disgust in her heart, and while walking to the main road to call a taxi, she dialed Lilian's phone.
"Hey. As soon as the phone was answered, she said, "Listen, Lil, there's something I need your help with... Did you tell me last time that one of your classmates went to the laboratory to do basic medical ...?"
The author has something to say: Note: Drug test is a very important test in the United States, and many jobs require this test to be done before employment. Drug is not only drugs, but also some such as alcohol, prescription drugs, etc., are covered in it, and if you test positive, it is unclean, and many jobs will not use you.
There are several kinds of drug tests, urine tests, blood tests, hair tests, and if it is a hair test, theoretically when you have been exposed to it in a few months, it can be checked. However, there is a small knowledge point of this is that if it is black hair, the drug will be retained the most, and if it is blonde hair or you have done bleaching or something, it will be less retained, and the possibility of checking it out is lower.
Finally, I solemnly tell you that the idea that the Western society thinks that hemp is harmless is absolutely wrong, absolutely and absolutely wrong, mainly because the hemp dealers promote this statement for huge profits. Hemp is a poison that will definitely ruin a person, so never try it, and you can't try any kind of poison
