Chapter 1179: Chapter 1179 Behind the Barrage
Hannah wondered, "Why would anyone say he likes me?"
Lucy got up, wiping away the tears she had just laughed out, "It’s because recently Louis Snyder and Jackie Qualls started butting heads. Jackie had confessed to you before, right? So everyone is saying Louis is dealing with a love rival. Isn’t that ridiculous? If Louis wanted to deal with a love rival, shouldn’t he be going after Arnold Simmons?"
Of course, it could also be that he didn’t dare to provoke Arnold.
Now, there are quite a few people talking about this.
Back when Louis was popular, he was even touted as Jackie’s successor. Although he didn’t take over the movie emperor title, he did move behind the scenes one after another to become a film producer.
No one really knows what the two of them are thinking.
Of course, to put it bluntly, being a big boss behind the scenes is certainly more comfortable than being a star.
But some people feel it’s a pity, especially since both of them are in their golden period of development, especially Louis who had just started not long ago.
Although he hasn’t officially announced his withdrawal from the industry, he’s almost there.
Jackie’s fans are fine with it, but Louis’s fans can’t accept it, insisting on an explanation.
But whether or not such matters can be explained is really hard to say.
The two of them talked until almost midnight before Lucy reluctantly returned to her own room.
The door had just closed when, for some reason, she thought again about the man she had bumped into when entering earlier that day.
He didn’t seem like a resident of the small town.
Maybe she could ask the landlady tomorrow?

The hotel room wasn’t spacious, a bed and a desk almost filled the whole space, and the washroom was very narrow, but it was clean and simple.
After sending Lucy away, Hannah walked to the window and pushed it open.
From the third floor, using the moonlight, she could see the river flowing quietly in the distance, reflecting the lights on both banks, creating another world.
The vast night, adorned with starlight.
In a dark corner, a man lifted his head, his eyes almost obsessively greedily fixed on the person standing by the window.
Under the moonlight, she leaned out, her black hair sliding off her shoulders, the distant twinkling lights reflecting in her dark eyes, like stars sprinkled across the night sky, gathering the night’s mist but clearer than stream water in the mountain ravines.
She seemed to sigh, casting her eyes downward, lost in thought.
"Could she be lost?"
Hannah thought of Ginny.
Counting the days, it should have been almost a week now.
It wasn’t exactly worry.
After all, this wasn’t the first time Ginny had run away from home, but she didn’t expect this time to last so long.
When that person gave Ginny to her, he mentioned that original systems often have their own personalities. She had found it strange at the time, but now she really believed it.
It did have quite the personality.
When it came back, she would definitely pluck all its fur out.
In some unknown corner, Ginny looked at the moonlight and couldn’t help but shiver.
It silently sniffled, lugging a sack while crying and hurrying on its way.
It was wrong, it would never dare to run away again, it wanted to go home, it wanted to find its owner.
The window closed, cutting off the light, and also that gaze.
The man remained standing in place, lowering his head to caress the scar on his wrist, a smile playing on his lips as he turned and vanished again into the night.

The next morning, before the recording started.
Lucy went downstairs and found the landlady to inquire about the man from the previous night.
The landlady, cracking melon seeds and spitting out the shells, thought for a while before saying, "Actually, that guy is also new here, only been a few days."
