Capítulo 264: Chapter 264 - A Scottish Wedding
In the hot drinks store, Keira Knightley scooped up a spoonful of coffee milkshake with a delicate little silver spoon and brought it to her mouth to savor it, finally smacking her lips.
"No more acting!"
Lin Mingyang stirred the chilled juice in front of him with a straw, his face a sad sight: "Not even going to give me a last chance?"
"Last chance?" Knightley's big beautiful eyes blinked vigorously, a mischievous smile spreading at the corners of her mouth, "I don't think Disney will call it quits after this one, they'll definitely make more sequels, am I going to be in it until I'm too old to play this character?"
Lin Ming Yang lifted up a very mysterious statement, "Don't you think 3 is a marvelous number? Many classic movies in Hollywood end happily with a trilogy, and many directors and actors believe in it."
Knightley's expression remained unchanged, frowning, "Hollywood nowadays only believes in money!"
Lin Mingyang had learned from Bruckheimer that Disney had passed a budget investment of up to 180 million dollars this time for the filming of Pirates of the Caribbean 3, of which the paychecks divided among the several main actors was a considerable amount, and Keira Knightley's refusal to star in the movie was definitely not due to the money issue.
"Is it that your schedule is full?"
Knightley shook her head, "I haven't scheduled a slot at all lately, I'm getting ready to go out on tour."
Lin Ming Yang wasted no time in encouraging her, "The Caribbean is a tourist mecca, we can travel while filming!"
Knightley's eyes suddenly became a little misty when she heard the word "we", she remembered that dark night, Lin Mingyang stuffed the life jacket into his hand, and then jumped into the sea, think about it should be a long time ago, but to this day, the plot of that time is still vivid in her mind.
A hand that kept swaying in front of her eyes pulled Knightley's thoughts back to reality, Lin Mingyang pulled his hand back, but in his heart, he kept wondering if the topic was so unattractive that the other party was distracted after just a few sentences.
"Where were we talking about just now?" Knightley asked mindlessly.
"You said we'd travel to the Caribbean together." Lin Mingyang followed the pole to the wall and directly said the long-stored idea.
Knightley lightly quenched him, her cheeks couldn't help but turn a little scarlet, "Fuck your big head!"
After joking around, Lin Ming Yang's expression became serious, "Mr. Bruckheimer had helped me a lot, and MGM is now in the process of cooperating with Disney, so I have to act in this film."
Knightley remained unmoved, "This is your problem, what does it have to do with me?"
Lin Mingyang's expression was serious, while the words he said were less reliable. "Acting is just like working, choosing your partner is important, Felix Lin's Will only loves Keira Knightley's Elizabeth in his life, both in and out of the theater I'm a dedicated man, and working with you is so enjoyable, if I were to change to someone else it would surely affect my play."
"I think as long as it's a beautiful woman you'll be devoted to them, especially that kind of S-girl with big waves and a big ass..." said Knightley, catching the chance to be ruthlessly sarcastic and seeing Lin Ming Yang eating crappy looks, she found it very interesting.
"That's why this role is yours, it's not easy to find an actress in Hollywood with as much temperament and substance as you." Lin Ming Yang teasingly squeezed his eyes towards Knightley before muttering under his breath, "Especially a flat-chested actress with less than a C-cup, that's almost impossible!"
Knightley glared at him viciously, "Then you'll just go and get one of those boobies to play the part!" After saying that, she huffed and reached out to grab her bag, getting up and about to leave.
Lin Ming Yang was quick on his feet and pulled her back.
Although in Pirates of the Caribbean the two were a couple like glue, but that was after all an act, in reality such an intimate move made Knightley's face brush red, she vigorously shook it off twice, but how could she not break free, and finally gambled as if she threw her handbag towards the seat, and re-sat down with a face full of shyness and annoyance.
"I just don't understand, you know so many women in Hollywood, just find one of them to be able to fulfill this role, why are you dragging me?"
"If I were to choose the most memorable scene in Pirates of the Caribbean, I think I would choose the moment when a little girl wakes up suddenly from a nightmare, the camera shifts, one eye is open, beautiful and terrified, like a raging dark ocean, the wind and thunder rolls in, the blackness of the sky and the sea, there is a clear light, like a flame or a starlight flashes by, maybe you're not the best, but it's irreplaceable. the best, but irreplaceable."
Lin Mingyang shrugged his shoulders, the kind of classical temperament on Keira Knightley's body gave her performance a distinctive feeling, in exchange for other actors, the beauty is beautiful, but it is very difficult to find such a feeling again, which is also why when Bruckheimer proposed to let Kate replace Knightley, Lin Mingyang did not agree to the reason.
Kate's intellectual elegance is more suitable to play a modern woman, not to mention proud as she is, this kind of pick-up role is certainly not accepted.
"Do you think I'm really that important in this movie?" Knightley looked at Lin Mingyang with some tears and laughter.
"Regardless of whether or not Pirates of the Caribbean will continue with a sequel, this is the last time I'll be in it, and I sincerely implore you to accompany me on this final journey."
Knightley looked at Lin Ming Yang with unblinking eyes, "Are you serious?"
Lin Ming Yang nodded with a serious expression.
Knightley finally let go, "Then you have to promise me something!"
"No problem!" The delighted Lin Ming Yang subconsciously agreed.
Knightley gave Lin Ming Yang a quirky look, "Don't you think about it, what if I want you to marry me?"
Lin Ming Yang was instantly embarrassed, Knightley covered her mouth and her eyes smiled into a beautiful crescent moon, "I'll give you a chance to back out!"
Lin Ming Yang raised his head and looked at her with a frank gaze, "No need, I promise you!"
Knightley nodded in satisfaction, "Alright, in two days you and I will go to a wedding!"
Lin Ming Yang froze, "It's not going to be for someone to be the best man, is it?"
"How did you know?" Knightley clapped her hands happily, "My brother is getting married, I'll be the maid of honor and you'll be the best man!"
Lin Ming Yang always felt that there was a hint of strangeness in Knightley's sweet smile, he cautiously asked, "Just being the best man?"
"Forget it if you don't want to!" With a word, Knightley grabbed her bag and prepared to leave.
This killer move was really effective, Lin Ming Yang immediately raised his hands in surrender, "OK, can't I just say yes?"
"That wedding is semi-public, there might be reporters present at that time oh!"
Lin Ming Yang confidently patted his chest, "As long as it's not made to look like a press conference, I'll still be able to cope with the general scene."
----
Knightley's brother Caleb's wedding was held in Middlesex, the old English county bordering the River Thames, which is Knightley's hometown, and which became a county of London when London annexed a part of the old county into its boundaries in 1965.
Since starring in Pride and Prejudice, Knightley has leapt to become a British superstar, and her brother's wedding naturally attracted some of the media's attention. Lin Mingyang served as Knightley's brother's best man as a friend, and this news was kept secret beforehand. Because they couldn't enter the wedding site, many of the media only sent photographers, all they needed were photos of Knightley as a bridesmaid, which was also part of the celebrity gossip news.
In order to participate in this wedding, Lin Ming Yang brought a set of dresses from the American side. His modern Scottish wedding was much the same as an American wedding, but on the day of the wedding he realized that the clothes he had prepared would not work. To serve as the best man, he had to wear a traditional kilt, knee-high white socks and small black leather boots.
The entire set of Scottish tartan sewn into the traditional Highland dress was specially sewn according to Lin Mingyang's body shape and fit him well, but this unique skirt still made Lin Mingyang still feel awkward when he wore it. He now finally understood why Knightley would emphasize the media at that time, as early as that time she began to wait to see Lin Mingyang "joke".
Sitting in the limousine to the wedding site, Lin Mingyang face is not very good, in addition to his body "strange" attire, Knightley's brother and another best man's eyes are always with the eyes in the sneak look at him, so that he is very uncomfortable.
On the contrary, the two sitting beside him were in a mood that could be described as surging, and Knightley's brother, Caleb, had never dreamed that the best man at his own wedding would actually be Lin Mingyang. At that time, Knightley told him that he was a better friend, but when he found out that the person who came was actually the chairman of MGM, the famous Felix Lin in Hollywood, because of the excitement, when he met and shook hands, his body has been in a state of exuberance slightly trembling.
Another best man is Caleb's hair, he is more excessive than Caleb, after getting on the car, his eyes have been staring at Lin Mingyang did not move away, look at his frenzied expression, if not separated by a Caleb, he still do not know what kind of excitement.
In order to break this awkward situation, Lin Ming Yang gently coughed.
"How long will it take us to get to the church?"
Caleb was just about to open his mouth when the one beside him, the best man, jumped in and said, "It's still a ten-minute drive."
Lin Mingyang nodded at him before looking at the groom, Caleb, "I think your bride must be beautiful!"
Not just from excitement or thrill, at this moment, Caleb looked slightly flushed and his cheeks were glowing. He nodded vigorously, "Kerry is the most beautiful goddess in my heart, we've been dating for 6 years and got engaged last year...I've been waiting for this moment today for a long time!"
"Come on, at yesterday's farewell bachelorette party you were clutching a copy of Playboy and crying to us that you had to sneak around to read the magazine after you got married...why the sudden change in tone today?" The guy next to Caleb's date spilled all the beans on his embarrassing story.
Lin Mingyang smiled slightly, "Letting all married men be able to openly and honestly look through this magazine at home is what Playboy magazine has been working towards."
The others in the car laughed as both sides found restraint, and the atmosphere in the car instantly became lively. From the conversation, Lin Mingyang learned a lot about the interesting customs of Scottish weddings. For example, during the wedding the groom would wear a fur pouch and a double-edged short sword. The bride would often wear a white or cream-colored wedding dress and stick a bunch of heather flowers in her buttonhole for luck. A bagpiper plays a lively cappella to welcome the guests, before playing the bagpipes to invite the bride and her father to the wedding ceremony. In the evening there was an evening party where people could revel until the wedding march was played, and then it was all over. Kaleb weddings are not as complicated, but they do take more than two hours of ceremony.
When the groom's limousine arrived at the church, friends and family had already arrived, and there was a group of reporters standing in the distance. Even though it was Caleb's wedding, most of the reporters were there for Knightley. Seeing that it was the groom's limo, most of them put down the cameras in their hands.
Lin Ming Yang was the last one to get down from the car, his tall height didn't attract the attention of the reporters at first, and when a bored reporter held up his camera and swept through the crowd through the telephoto lens, the face that was so incredibly familiar to him appeared clearly in the lens.
"Oh my God!"
That reporter's exclamation of surprise aroused the curiosity of his peers around him, and someone even said jokingly, "Jimmy, have you found a beautiful woman?"
Jimmy simply ignored his surrounding peers as he held up his camera to the end and started furiously pressing the shutter, when someone with sharp eyes finally spotted Lin Mingyang standing in the crowd in traditional Scottish attire.
"Oh my god, is that Felix Lin?" That reporter rubbed his eyes vigorously, "Why is he here?"
The other reporters reacted, they held up their lenses and looked over, easily confirming the identity of the tall best man, the chairman of MGM Studios, the "playboy" who stirred up the Hollywood entertainment industry, actually appeared at the church door as the best man, the bride and groom of today's wedding were not famous people, the people with a little bit of brain could guess the identity of the best man, but he was not the best man. Anyone with a little bit of brain can guess that this matter must be related to Keira Knightley.
This kind of private wedding, the invitation will only be the bride and groom's friends and relatives, Lin Mingyang personally went to the United Kingdom as the wedding best man, also dressed in traditional Scottish clothing, the groom Caleb certainly not so big face. Today should be the "protagonist" of Knightley has not yet appeared, about her and Lin Mingyang relationship of all kinds of speculation has been in the minds of reporters, regardless of the identity of Lin Mingyang appeared here, this is an explosive news.
Knightley's parents are also actors, it's not surprising that a reporter showed up on the periphery of their son's wedding site, although the two old men don't have much fame in the acting circle, but after all, they have a daughter who is the busiest and most popular amongst the British and even Hollywood actresses, and it's not unusual for this wedding to attract the attention of the media.
However, abnormal things happen, their daughter in the bride's car has not yet appeared, that end of the journalists have set up a "gun barrel" busy.
"Will, don't look for them, they're taking pictures of the tall best man next to Caleb." Knightley's mother, Salman, a playwright, jabbed her hand at her husband as he glanced from side to side in the crowd, then poked her hand toward the church door.
"That's one of Kayla's friends, she told me about it." Knightley's father, Will, stroked his beard as a possibility suddenly occurred to him, "You're saying that person is in the circle too?"
"That person's back looks familiar...it's hard to say we all know each other!" Shaman looked at Lin Mingyang's back, her mind struggling to find information about the other person.
"It's not like you don't know Kyla's high-minded and proud temperament, there aren't many male celebrities in her circle that she looks at, she didn't mention to us before that she had any male friends in her circle, at Caleb's wedding she brought such a person, do you think it could be..."
"Quick, he's turning his head!" Sharman tugged hard on her husband's sleeve, and Will raised his eyes and finally got a good look at the face of the mysterious best man.
Will froze instantly, "Felix Lin, why him!"
Sharman clasped her hands and looked slightly agitated, "Now I finally know why those reporters were taking pictures like crazy like they were off their meds, if it wasn't for those damn scandals, I'd honestly kind of like him, Kayla should have known him from when she was filming Pirates of the Caribbean!"
"Let's go up and talk to him, maybe we can find out something from him..."
Before Will could finish his sentence, his wife Sharman's feet couldn't wait to already take a step, "I was just about to do that!"
----
When the reporter on the other end raised his camera, Lin Ming Yang already knew that his identity had been exposed, he had just refused an interview with a reporter who was posing as a family member or friend to blend into the wedding scene, when suddenly someone tapped him on the shoulder, and he turned around to see that it was an...old woman wearing a colorful red kilt in the Scottish style.
"Hello, I'm Knightley's mother and this is my husband Will!" This old woman startled Lin Ming Yang as soon as she opened her mouth, and he confidently looked at the old couple standing in front of him whose facial contours did resemble Knightley's.
"Hello, ma'am!" Seeing these two, Lin Ming Yang didn't really know what to say and could only smile at them politely.
"I've seen many of the movies you've made, and if it wasn't for Kayla, I really wouldn't have been able to resist asking for your autograph!" Sharman's curious gaze flicked around Lin Ming Yang, causing him to be embarrassed.
At this time Will patted Lin Ming Yang's shoulder, "Young man, thank you very much for coming to my son's wedding, and for being his best man, I guess our prince didn't have this treatment when he got married...this was Kayla's idea, right!"
The smile on Lin Ming Yang's lips was humble and unobtrusive, "Kayla and I are good friends, and I feel honored to be able to come to such a Scottish wedding rich in traditional charm."
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Knightley's mother, Sharman, began to pull Lin Mingyang around to ask questions, and Knightley's father interjected a sentence or two from time to time. This is just a polite mutual understanding, but in the eyes of the reporter, it becomes Knightley's parents and Lin Mingyang intimate conversation, which more and more solidified in their hearts for Lin Mingyang and Kayla Knightley "special" relationship speculation.
Tied with white ribbons of the limousine carrying the bride from the intersection slowly drove into the crowd's vision, Keira Knightley wearing a deep V, shoulders and waist are bow, layers of tulle flowing purple bridesmaid dress, black high heels, holding a small bouquet of green, white, red bouquet accompanied the bride to arrive at the wedding venue.
The reporters who were still capturing Lin Ming Yang's figure in the crowd immediately turned their lenses and took a wild shot at Keira Knightley who had just gotten off the bus. In the face of the reporter's camera, Knightley cleverly pulled on their future sister-in-law, good behavior in her side as a "supporting role", the helpless reporters can only bride also into the frame, hard free for them to act as a photographer.
Before the official start of the wedding, both sides of the family and relatives have in front of the church to take pictures. Most of the relatives and friends who attended this wedding had already recognized Lin Mingyang's identity. The older generation was still relatively calm, and the young people, after the family group photo was over, immediately took the photographer to find Lin Ming Yang to ask for a photo, and some bold girls even held Lin Ming Yang's arm intimately and posed for all sorts of quirky poses. It could be imagined that these photos would become the talk of the girls with their circle mates in the coming period of time.
To the disappointment of the reporters, Keira Knightley didn't participate in this trend of competing to take pictures with Lin Ming Yang, she just stood quietly and watched, with a faint light smile at the corner of her mouth.
Fear of giving people the impression of clamoring for the main Lin Mingyang learned a hand from Knightley, in the group photo he pulled on Knightley's brother Caleb, so that the group photo has become a group photo of everyone with the groom, not only to take care of the feelings of the wedding protagonist, but also did not whisk the crowd's excitement.
Lin Mingyang's approach was seen in the eyes of Knightley's parents, and in their hearts they couldn't help but move up another notch in their evaluation of him. Unaware of the fact that so many people wanted to take a picture with him, Lin Ming Yang's heart was already in agony at this time.
Probably his fame is too loud, looking at so many sisters are with Lin Mingyang photo, the bride is also some intention, but she is embarrassed to run over alone, had to pull Keira Knightley came together.
The groom Caleb was very sensible and walked to the side, before the wedding he couldn't stand with his fiancée who was wearing a wedding dress, and as the best man Lin Mingyang had less of this constraint, she was reserved and polite and slightly shy, "Mr. Felix, is it possible to take a picture with you?"
"With great honor!"
People's words have been said to this point, Lin Ming Yang which has the reason to refuse, after he nodded his head, the bride pulled Keira Knightley forward together, Lin Ming Yang and Knightley's gazes crossed, with the media on the scene, both sides just nodded slightly.
Early has been over there looking through the autumn water of the reporters finally this time has praised the new year countless times, if not for him, in full view of Lin Mingyang and Keira Knightley absolutely impossible that stood together, they set up the lens, are waiting to shoot this heavyweight photo.
The best man on the left, the bridesmaids on the right, standing in the center of the bride holding the hands of the two, took this next day is destined to appear in the headlines of the major entertainment newspapers.
