~7 min read 1,209 words

"Terrorists? I just jumped off the building to buy an ice cream, but I flew up too fast, and the ice cream was blown away by the wind."

"Oh, Peter, you're so handsome even when you buy an ice cream. I really love you to death."

"I love you too, Gwen!"

According to the script, the two were originally supposed to be at a misaligned angle, using exaggerated movements to perform a kiss to create a comedic effect.

But when Taylor's red lips approached Xu Can, that temptation so close at hand made him make a subconscious move!

Xu Can kissed her without hesitation!

In an instant, an electric feeling surged in the hearts of both!

Taylor's pupils suddenly dilated! ===== CHAPTER 75 =====

Manhattan, New York, night.

At the entrance of the Rockefeller building, Xu Can and Taylor stood in the cold wind, waiting for the assistant to get the car from the parking lot.

"Should I just take a taxi myself?"

"It's so late, don't be alone. Be obedient, I'll take you."

Xu Can deliberately used the tone of a domineering CEO to be fierce, and Taylor finally stopped insisting.

The atmosphere between the two was a bit awkward, each with their own thoughts and nothing to say.

After getting in the car, the silence in the car was deafening.

The assistant Vanessa couldn't take it anymore and turned on the radio, just wanting some noise.

The DJ on the radio happened to be playing a country music special, which was Taylor's song.

"Teardrops on My Guitar"

"When I'm with him, I only see him"

"He says he's fallen in love, he's finally found the one"

"Does he even know that he's all I think about"

"Every time I wish on a shooting star, it's just because of him..."

On the radio, Taylor Swift's singing voice was like weeping, melodious and winding.

And she herself was sitting less than 10 centimeters away from Xu Can; he could wrap his arm around her shoulder with just a move of his finger.

However, Xu Can held back. What happened on stage today was a bit impulsive and might have offended Taylor.

Assuming there was a progress bar for conquest, looking at her silent appearance now, the affection level must have dropped significantly, right?

On the SNL stage, when Xu Can dressed as Spider-Man and hung upside down, he couldn't help but kiss Taylor Swift's lips.

All of this was Xu Can's subconscious move; as soon as he kissed her, he realized something was wrong.

The kiss was just a dragonfly touching the water, a light taste.

Western girls were relatively open, but not that open.

The two weren't even dating, so kissing rashly was indeed a bit abrupt.

Taylor's reaction was also huge; she pushed Xu Can away, looking shocked.

None of this was in the script!

Because Taylor's position blocked everyone's view, no one knew what had happened, only she knew.

At this moment, the blonde...

"It's over, I messed up. In her eyes, I'm probably a greasy lecher, right?"

The apartment where Taylor lived was very close, and the car had already stopped downstairs.

"Xu, thank you for taking me back. Hurry back, sleep early today."

Taylor Swift squeezed out a smile, looked at Xu Can deeply, and then opened the door to get out of the car.

Just after walking two steps, Xu Can chased after her.

"Xu, what's wrong?"

"You've been soul-less today, you didn't even take your bag?"

Taylor then realized she had gotten out of the car empty-handed, and all her belongings were left on the seat.

"Well... hahaha, you caught me."

Taylor laughed dryly.

"That kiss... I didn't mean it."

Xu Can took the initiative to bring up this matter, wanting to explain.

"Eh?"

"No, I mean. I'm going to Berlin tomorrow. When I come back, let's have a drink together?"

"Are you asking me out?"

Taylor carried her bag, hands behind her back, raised the corners of her mouth, and looked at Xu Can.

"Yes, I want to ask you out." Xu Can simply let go; he didn't want to drag it out.

"Alright, it's a deal. I'll wait for you to come back."

Surprisingly, Taylor smiled brightly and also agreed to the invitation simply.

This meant that she was willing to try the possibility of the two being together and was willing to take that step.

"See you then, good night, Taylor."

"Good night, Xu."

Taylor stepped forward, hugged Xu Can lightly, and then fled into the apartment quickly.

Xu Can stood for a few seconds and returned to the car.

The assistant Vanessa coughed twice abruptly and started the car.

"You enjoyed watching the drama, didn't you?"

"Yeah, very..." Vanessa suddenly paused, then hurriedly explained, "I was looking at my phone just now, I didn't see anything."

"Alright, alright, drive your car, watch the road!"

If paparazzi had captured it just now, it would definitely be on the entertainment headlines.

Fortunately, the assistant Vanessa was a reliable young girl, and Xu Can believed she wouldn't gossip.

What's more, nothing had happened between him and Taylor yet, right?

……

"Spider-Man" had been released for more than a month, extended for almost ten days, and finally pulled from the North American market.

Parts of the global market were still in a hot screening state.

As the most successful live-action comic adaptation of the 21st century,

"Spider-Man" not only gained the love of the general public, turning countless passersby into comic fans.

At the same time, it was enshrined as a bible among American comic fan groups and worshipped.

According to media statistics, Marvel fans watched "Spider-Man" an average of 3 times, and more extreme fans watched it 26 times in a month, breaking the viewing record.

However, at this stage, the global box office wouldn't change much; those who wanted to see it had already seen it, and those who weren't interested wouldn't go.

Currently, the global box office of "Spider-Man" had broken 1.08 billion USD, and the final box office was expected to break 1.1 billion.

This result officially surpassed "The Lion King" and became the 3rd highest-grossing film in history!

The first movie of amateur actor Xu Can had created an incomparable height!

His number of fans on Facebook was expanding rapidly, and it looked like it had broken 6 million and was about to rush toward 10 million fans.

Even the latest cover of "Time" magazine had a photo of Xu Can printed on it.

Agent Happy's phone was ringing off the hook every day, so much so that he hired a work assistant specifically to answer calls and record invitations from major film merchants, show teams, and advertisers.

Of course, Xu Can was unlikely to appear in those messy movies; he had devoted his heart and soul to the final filming of "John Wick."

The Berlin scenes were finished, and Xu Can officially wrapped up "John Wick."

It happened to be the Lunar New Year's Eve of 2007, and he could only spend it in Europe.

Besides his own family, female stars he had good relationships with, such as Emma Stone, Taylor Swift, Emma Roberts, and Avril, all called to send their blessings. ===== CHAPTER 76 =====
