Lisko’s American Life

Chapter Eight Encounter

Although he is now wealthy, carefree, and has status, occasionally he still feels lonely when he is alone.

The next day, after Lisko got up, he printed and packed the manuscript, bound it in a kraft paper bag, and drove to Garrison.

After parking the pickup truck at the entrance of the tavern, Lisko casually put the cowhide bag into the mailbox on the side of the road, and pushed open the door of the tavern.

Life in this small town is always slow. Just after the morning, there are already drunks sitting in twos and threes in the tavern. Tell dirty jokes.

Maggie was still wiping her glass at the bar as always,

"Morning, Maggie."

Li Sko stepped forward and hugged her, "Have you lived at home recently?"

Maggie got a beer from the counter in the back, "No, I've been separated from Beau for years, and I think my RV would be a great place to live."

After Maggie and Beau separated, she bought a used caravan in the backyard of the tavern.

"Aren't you going to stay for a few days when Colt comes back?"

Lisko politely declined the beer handed over, and poured a glass of milk from the counter.

"No, Colt can come here if he wants to accompany me. There is an extra bed in my RV." Maggie smiled mischievously, "Didn't you have breakfast?"

Lisko had already finished drinking the milk, and wiped the milk stains from the corner of his mouth, "No, I came to town when I got up, and mailed a document today."

"Then let me make you a sandwich? It's the one you loved most when you were in school." Maggie's eyes were full of doting. Skip Maggie's breakfast.

Maggie put down her glass and went into the house to make breakfast, while Lisko helped greet the guests at the counter.

"Mark Twain, have a glass of wine." Herman, the town's drunkard, called from the bar.

"Herman, you still owe five drinks." Lisko turned his head and glanced at the account book beside the bar.

"The relief money will be settled in a few days. Bring me a glass first. A good day starts with whiskey." Herman raised his eyebrows.

Lisko shook his head speechlessly, poured a glass of whiskey, wiped the rim of the glass, and stepped back, "I invited you."

Herman quickly took it, and drank most of it in one gulp, "Thank you, I think I feel much better with a hangover now. I don't know who bumped me into the side of the road yesterday, and I was so cold in the morning."

Herman was also a good cowboy in his middle age. When he was old and unmarried, he began to drink heavily. He found someone to get a disability certificate. He received the subsidy from the state every month. He was either drunk or drunk every day. On the way, there are many such drunks and homeless people in the United States, who do not know where to wake up every day.

Maggie quickly made the sandwich, and Lisko poured another glass of milk, found a seat and sat down, took a bite and still remembered the taste, and gave a thumbs up in the direction of Maggie.

The door of the tavern was pushed open, and a blond girl walked in. Her curvy figure attracted everyone's attention. The drunkards in the tavern whistled one after another. The girl turned coldly, her glass-colored pupils swept around, and walked towards the bar. .

"Have a whiskey."

She sat on the seat and stroked her long curly hair. She was wearing a plaid jacket and tight-fitting jeans, and her wheat-colored skin shone under the light.

Although it looked a little immature, Lisko recognized this sexy stunner at a glance, the heroine Megan Fox in "Transformers".

After watching "Transformers" back then, Li Sko searched for her information. She is only about 20 years old this year, and she hasn't played the role that made her popular. Now she should be a third-rate actress.

At that time, Lisko was attracted by her when he was watching "Transformers". The motorcycle girl she played was wearing denim shorts, showing a small waist and buttocks. Lisko took a screenshot and made a computer screen display. She just didn't know why she should be working hard in Hollywood and now appeared in the small town of Garrison.

Lisko wiped his mouth after eating the sandwich, returned the milk glass to Maggie, took out a Franklin card, and handed it to Maggie, "I'll take this."

He pointed to Megan who was drinking, and Maggie took the money with a smile on her face.

Megan raised his head and glanced at this handsome mixed-race guy. His demeanor was incompatible with this tavern.

"Megan Fox." She raised her glass and shook it in salute.

Lisko took the beer brought by Maggie and clinked the glass, "I recognize you, "Hope and Faith", you are an actor."

Megan was a little surprised, she didn't expect someone to recognize her as an unknown third-rate actor.

"There are also "Holiday in the Sun" and "Queen of the Prom"" Lisko said two more films in which she participated.

"God, how do you know, I just played a small role without a name."

"You know, you are so charming. I saw you immediately in the movie. I think you are more attractive than the leading actor. You will definitely become popular in the future." Lisko's rainbow farts followed one after another.

Megan's depressed mood began to overflow. She didn't expect that she would be noticed as a small supporting role. Recently, her acting career has been getting more and more bleak. She is still considering whether to give up acting and return to her own In the old-fashioned modeling industry.

"But you're supposed to shine in Hollywood, why in Garrison? Are you filming around here?"

Lisko asked suspiciously,

Talking about this, Megan felt a little depressed, "I've been walking around recently, my aunt lives here, I came here to relax, my career is not going well recently, no company asked me to film, I may have to go back and continue Be a model."

Lisko picked up the wine bottle and clinked glasses with her, "Don't be discouraged, I'm sure you will have a chance soon."

Megan only thought he was comforting herself, and accepted his encouragement happily. Only Lisko knew that the "Transformers" crew would notice her in a short time, and then ask her to play, and then she would walk into everyone The line of sight, red and purple.

"My name is Lisko, and I'm a farmer. Do you want to visit my farm?" Lisko sent out an invitation.

Megan thought for a while, looked carefully at Lisko's delicate face, and felt a little trembling at him, "Okay, I happen to have nothing else to do."

Lisko bid farewell to Maggie, and walked out of the tavern with Megan in a joke.

The pickup quickly drove back to the ranch, Lisko parked the car in the garage, and took Megan back to the villa.

During the conversation on the road, I learned that Megan's uncle opened an agricultural machinery shop in Garrison. Lisko knew immediately that the ranch had just opened and bought seeds from his house.

"What would you like to drink? Water? Or coffee?" Lisco opened the refrigerator.

Megan looked around, although this is a ranch villa, the decoration is also very delicate, there are some Chinese ink paintings on the walls, and the kitchen utensils are also very famous and expensive brands.

"coffee."

Megan touched the fabric of the sofa, "Are you really a farmer? Farmers can't earn so much money to buy these expensive decorations." Megan was a model before acting, and often shot some commercials, so it was easy Just discovered the expensive price of the home.

Lisko saw her looking around, "I'm still a writer."

Megan thought carefully about the somewhat familiar name Lisko, and suddenly looked at him in surprise, "Who are you Lisko? The one nominated by the Nobel Prize?"

Writers and the entertainment industry have always been deeply involved. The film and television rights of Lisko's two books were sold to Warner Hollywood for adaptation. I heard that Warner invested a total of 30 million US dollars in the auction. However, after selling the copyright, Li Sko didn't pay attention to it, and Megan must have heard of it in the entertainment industry.

"Yes, but Nobel failed." Lisko handed her the ground coffee, "Try it, this is the German Grant coffee from a friend."

Megan took a shallow taste, "Cappuccino, very mellow."

Lisko also drank a little with a smile.

"I heard that two of your books have been produced, and the heroines are both played by Jennifer Connelly."

"I haven't paid attention to this issue. The best way to express a work is words. Adapting it into a film may expand its influence and lose the charm of words."

Megan looked at Lisko, a great writer in his twenties, with outstanding looks, restrained and wealthy, and his literati temperament was also very attractive.
