Chapter 219： reunion

Chapter 219 Party

Hampton Street is in the Islington district of north London. This side is the London Cultural and Arts Center.

There are many theaters around, including the Garden Theatre, Almeida Theatre, King's Theatre, Sadler's Wells Theatre, and the famous egg bar is also nearby.

The place where Daniel Radcliffe lives is less than 800 meters away from the King's Theater. It is a more than ten-storey townhouse. The outer layer of the building is mainly made of grid-like marble panels, with Gothic style. The double pointed windows and stained glass are full of classical charm.

“Haha, Link, welcome!”

When I arrived at Daniel's apartment, the door was open. There were more than a dozen young men and women drinking and chatting in the living room. Most of them were actors from the "Harry Potter" crew.

Seeing him appear at the door, Robert the Golden Retriever turned his head, stretched out his hands, and greeted him enthusiastically.

Daniel also came through the crowd and welcomed him.

“Hi Daniel, Robert, long time no see!”

Link hugged the two of them and handed Daniel a souvenir, which was a bottle of Bordeaux red wine. Daniel expressed his thanks.

Robert pulled Link to the party and shouted:

"Hey, everyone, please allow me to introduce to you. The distinguished guest standing next to me is the current WBA world boxing champion, Olympic boxing champion, world championship swimming champion, world-famous singer, and famous actor, Mr. Link Baker "

Pap, pah, pah!

Everyone in the living room looked at Link and applauded enthusiastically.

“Robert, thank you for the introduction. I don’t have that many titles. Just call me Link.”

Link chuckled.

“Link, I am your fan, can you give me an autograph?”

Tom the Golden Retriever, who plays Master Malfoy, took out two records and said.

“Hey, Tom, this is a party, not a book signing. Don’t think of this as a star-chasing scene, okay? Come back later to sign autographs.”

Robert invited Link to sit on the sofa in the middle.

Link's hand speed is relatively fast. It only took a few tens of seconds to write signatures for several fans who wanted autographs.

There were a few familiar actors among them, and Link politely said that he had seen each other's plays and thought their performances were wonderful.

Except for Master Malfoy, the others are not very famous. I heard that he had seen their play, and everyone was very excited.

“Link, you are an amazing guy.”

Robert handed him a glass of sparkling wine, put his arm on his shoulder and said, "When I met you in Orlando last year, you were still an amateur boxer. In just over a year, you have become a big star. This is really amazing. ,how did you do it?"

While the two were talking, everyone else was standing around the sofa, listening to the conversation.

Link shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "Maybe I'm lucky. After becoming a boxing champion, I gained some fame, and it seemed that it became easier to do other things."

"You are too humble. People who are lucky can't win the world boxing championship belt, nor can they break the world swimming record. The album has sold tens of millions of copies. Link, you are so amazing. It's hard to imagine. I I’ll meet a guy as awesome as you.”

Robert patted him on the shoulder excitedly.

“Yes, Link, every time we see news about you in the newspaper and see those amazing achievements you have achieved, it feels very incredible.”

Daniel stood in front holding a wine glass and smiled.

 He ​​was wearing a V-neck cardigan, was short in stature, and had a shy smile. Although he didn’t wear the round-rimmed glasses of Harry Potter, he still looked like Harry Potter.

“Okay, please stop flattering me, otherwise I will tell you that I grew up watching your movies.”

Link looked at the two and joked.

“Haha, that seems to be right.”

Robert laughed loudly, then suddenly put away his smile as fast as lightning, looked outside the crowd, and his face became serious again.

Everyone followed his gaze and saw a girl wearing a blue crew-neck sweater and a white Chanel skirt walking in.

He wears black leather shoes, and his medium-long blond hair is tied into a ponytail, revealing his delicate oval face and fair collarbone. Because the knitted sweater is relatively loose, it only reveals a little bit of the undulation of his chest, but the hips outlined by the belt are curved.

She pursed her thin lips, her fair little face without any emotion, looking a little cold, her dark brown eyes swept around the crowd and landed on Link.

“Emma, ​​you’re here.”

Daniel greeted him warmly.

“Daniel, congratulations.”

Emma Watson picked up the small paper bag in her hand and handed it to Daniel. Daniel was stunned for a moment, a little confused: "Congratulations for what?"

“Your new movie has grossed more than 800 million US dollars at the global box office. Isn’t it worthy of congratulations?” Emma Watson said.

Daniel understands, she is talking about "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince", which currently has a global box office of more than 800 million, but she is also the starring role in this movie. Does she deserve congratulations?

Suddenly he remembered that Emma called yesterday and said that the movie box office exceeded 800 million. Everyone had a party to celebrate and invited Link to come over. The theme of today's party seemed to be this.

“Well, Emma, ​​congratulations to you too.”

Daniel smiled. Others also greeted Emma.

“Hi Emma, ​​long time no see.”

Link stood up and greeted.

Emma looked up at him, snorted with a straight nose, stretched out her hand to pull Robert next to her, and lowered her voice and said, "Yesterday I was talking about a gathering of four of us. Why were there so many people?"

"Ah? Did you say it?" Robert asked, blinking innocent eyes.

Emma had a cold face and twisted her fingers **** his arm. Robert hissed, his expression suddenly became distorted, and he covered his mouth with his hand to prevent himself from screaming.

“It was Daniel who called me, not me.”

“No way, Daniel is not as bad as you.”

Emma snorted, patted the hem of her skirt, walked to the sofa next to Link and sat down, with her back straight and her knees together, looking very ladylike.

“What were you talking about just now?”

“Your new movie is a hit and tops the box office. Congratulations.”

Link said while holding the light beer.

Beside him, Robert rubbed his arm and took a breath. He had been pinched countless times in the seven or eight years since he met Emma on the set of Harry Potter when he was twelve years old. This time it was particularly painful.

Seeing Link and Emma chatting, Daniel stood nearby and laughed and joined in the fun, looking superfluous but unaware of it.

Robert couldn't help but lamented, walked over and pulled Daniel to the balcony, rolled up his sleeves and pointed to the red spot.

“Man, I’m doing this all for you.”

“Where did this come from?”

Daniel looked at it and asked.

“It was that little wild girl Emma who pinched me. Her fingers are absolutely poisonous.”

Robert glanced at Emma and lowered his voice and said, "Yesterday Emma meant to only invite Link over. The four of us were gathering here. I deliberately called Tom and the others over. Do you know why?"

“You’re worried that you’re neglecting Link. A party is more lively when there are more people.”

Daniel thought for a while and said.

"wrong!"

Robert held his shoulders and whispered, "Man, I am thinking about you. Emma only proposed to invite Link here because she wanted to have a tryst with Link at your place and let the two of us be a fig leaf to prevent scandals from spreading. , Hehe, now that I have called Tom and the others over, there are too many people, so she won’t be able to have a tryst with Link here, do you understand?”

Robert raised his eyebrows proudly.

Daniel shook his head, "Robert, you shouldn't do this. Emma is our friend. She wants to date Link here, so we should help her. You shouldn't cause trouble on purpose."

Robert was stunned for a moment, "Don't you like Emma? Do you mind seeing her and Link having a tryst at your place?"

Daniel glanced at Emma and whispered: "A little, but I know she likes Link very much, and I don't want to see her disappointed and sad."

"you!"

Robert gritted his teeth and stared at him with an expression of hatred, "Okay! Okay! You are the great lover, I am the clown, I am making my own decisions."

“But thank you anyway.”

Daniel put his arm around his shoulders and said.

“No, I don’t deserve your thanks.”

Robert pushed his hand away, his expression still depressed.

“Hey, what are you two mumbling over there?”

Emma looked over and asked.

“Robert said he liked watching the sunset from my balcony.”

Daniel walked over and said with a smile.

Robert glanced at the sun in the west. It looked like red tangerines hidden in the thick haze. There was nothing to see.

However, he noticed that there were many strange vehicles parked on both sides of Hampton Avenue downstairs, as well as some suspicious people with cameras hanging around, wandering around on the street. As a long-established star, he could spot these at a glance. Guys are paparazzi.
