Chapter 1272 Casual Chat with Best Friends
Tang Tang's gaze lingered on Caroline's impressively cleavage, causing Caroline to burst into laughter, completely losing her ladylike composure.
"Oh, dear Nicola, you are so adorable!"
"Thank you," Tang Tang said, closing her eyes again as she felt the makeup artist applying loose powder to her face to set her makeup.
So who is your male companion?
“He’s my new boyfriend,” Caroline said. “You’ve probably heard of him; he’s a really good rapper… Max Carter, he’s famous and charismatic.”
OK... Tang Tang does know Max Carter, but it's not that she's particularly interested in him; it's just that he's quite popular.
The American community really likes rap culture. Max is Black, and he dresses like a typical rapper—those who know, know. He is indeed very talented; Tang Tang had vaguely heard many people discussing him during class.
Tang Tang nodded politely, "He is indeed very famous, with many young fans and a great influence among teenagers."
However, she genuinely couldn't appreciate it. It wasn't that she was racist; it was just that Black people simply didn't fit her aesthetic preferences, even top Black supermodels or celebrities.
There are still significant differences between Chinese and Western aesthetics.
But Tang Tang was never one to point fingers or criticize others, so she casually joked, "I clearly remember that the last time you were with someone wasn't Max."
Caroline laughed and winked at Tang Tang with her super curled eyelashes. "Because Kendrick's movie is about to be released, and he's the male lead... of course he has to do promotional work with the female lead. Kendrick's career has been in a slump, and his agent hopes he can fake a romance with the female lead to improve the audience's favor."
Caroline doesn't mind going public with her relationships; she'll make them public once the relationship is established.
However, Kendrick is a Hollywood star, and the kind of person who is very shy on screen. Given this persona, if Kendrick and Caroline were to go public, they would obviously be questioned by the public.
After all, Caroline is quite famous in the US... although her public reputation isn't actually that good, since she's had far too many boyfriends or ambiguous relationships, making her a very openly known playboy.
“Kendrick’s agent wants me to be—” Caroline’s voice was a little sarcastic, “to be his girlfriend behind the scenes—while Kendrick pretends to be in a relationship with the female lead in public.”
Caroline rolled her eyes, her beautiful and alluring face full of sarcasm. "That agent and Kendrick are both idiots. Does he think I like him that much?"
"In the end, the media might make up rumors based on hearsay, and they might even say that I'm the one who came between the two women?"
Tang Tang couldn't help but laugh. "Fake couples either break up or get married in the end. Once they've successfully built up their relationship, a breakup will definitely have a huge impact."
At that time, this fake on-screen couple may eventually choose to get married in the future. However, even a fake marriage requires a marriage certificate, since they are public figures and their financial information and relationship will clearly show whether they are married or not.
Can a couple who have taken vows in a church and obtained a marriage certificate still be called a fake couple? Even if they have signed a prenuptial agreement, it's useless because there are already many other things involved.
She shook her head and commented, "Troublesome."
"Hmph," Caroline said, fiddling with her blonde curls with her fingers, a little annoyed. "Greedy people never have a good ending."
Caroline's romantic life has actually been quite good. Although she has had many male companions, most of them ended amicably.
Caroline will provide money and resources; it's a mutually beneficial arrangement, so nothing will go wrong.
Kendrick's actions weren't all that bad, but their attempt to get Caroline to back down and be patient made her very unhappy.
"So," Tang Tang stood up after confirming that the makeup artist had finished, and looked at Caroline with some curiosity, "You really like Max?"
“At least for now,” Caroline shrugged, seemingly unconcerned. “At least I really like his rap.”
"OK, I understand."
Tang Tang chuckled; clearly, Caroline wasn't entirely sincere towards Max either…
The two chatted like best friends, and Caroline asked Tang Tang curiously, "And you, darling? Do you like Professor Sterling?"
Tang Tang winked at her, "Of course I like him. Who can blame me when Edwin not only has a handsome face and a perfect body, but also a sexy and charming mind?"
“Oh… haha, a Nobel laureate’s brain is certainly sexy,” Caroline joked, “but obviously his students don’t think so… even if Professor Sterling is very charming, as far as I know, before you got involved with him, everyone thought Professor Sterling wouldn’t be with anyone.”
Tang Tang looked at her and saw Caroline playfully say, "Because Professor Sterling is so fierce, you know that, darling, so is he so serious when he's with you?"
Tang Tang heard Caroline's teasing and ambiguous remark, "For example, a serious professor and a beautiful student..."
“Hey!” Tang Tang interrupted the sea queen’s driving remarks. She picked up the sparkly evening bag next to her and looked at Caroline, saying, “Darling, stop your dangerous remarks...we should get going.”
Caroline, however, took her time and circled around Tang Tang once, clicking her tongue as she did so.
Tang Tang looked at her and asked, "What are you clicking your tongue about?"
Caroline grinned mischievously, "You're so beautiful it makes me hate that I'm not a man, darling~"
Tang Tang's dress did not reach the ground; instead, it adopted a low-key and elegant style, leaning towards the Hepburn style, with a large area of black as the main color, which was fitted and restrained.
All the accessories are pearls, full and bright top-quality Australian white pearls with a gentle and warm luster, perfectly matching the dress.
Tang Tang wore an elegant and delicate pair of lace gloves. The light lace was faintly visible, and the cuffs of the gloves were also adorned with pearls, making them exquisite and demure.
Caroline clicked her tongue in amazement because her dress and Edwin's suit downstairs looked quite well-matched.
Caroline grinned mischievously at Tang Tang, "Hey, if Edmund saw this, he'd probably be so angry he wouldn't even eat dinner~"
Grab the bamboo shoots.
Tang Tang was amused by Caroline's tone. "It's not that bad. After all, when Edmund and I were interviewed at the International Leaders Conference, none of the other people had starved to death."
The two aquamans looked at each other, then suddenly burst out laughing together, clearly finding men quite amusing.
