Chapter 1783: Thirty Years Old (3)
Many such characteristic hotels abroad are basically old Renaissance buildings, with antique decorations and antique furnishings. Some houses even have noble owners.
This is the case with this hotel. You can creak upstairs from the ancient elevator that can only accommodate four people. The rooms inside are all baroque furnishings, classical, complicated, and luxurious. Pushing open the window lattice full of carvings, there is a river below, flowing continuously, with many tourists coming and going, from all countries and colors.
After all, this is Italy, and the language spoken is familiar to Xia Siyu. The streets are antique, and when you are in them, you feel like you have gone back in time, hundreds of years ago.
Xia Siyu flew all the way here, and only when she got here did she dare to take off her mask. Although this place faced the street and was still in the downtown area, she was not afraid at all.
Although she and Boyan are top celebrities in China, in Western society, people don't recognize her either. Moreover, many Westerners are actually a bit face-blind towards Asians, thinking that Asians all look the same.
Although as an artist, gaining worldwide attention and popularity, becoming a superstar is definitely everyone's dream. However, Xia Siyu felt that it was good to be like this now. If others didn't know her, she wouldn't be like in China, where she would be chased and intercepted by a large group of people when she went out, and she would always have to worry about paparazzi taking photos.
She took a breath of fresh air, turned around and asked, "Where is Director Sun?"
Bo Yan watched from behind. Although this guy still jumped out occasionally, he was becoming more and more stable. Last time she went to Cannes, she didn't care whether Wang Zheng and Shang Feier came back or not, she had a great time playing beach volleyball with a group of people.
"He said, leave enough personal space for the two of us - he won't stay in this hotel. I have booked this hotel. It's just us, assistants and so on, no outsiders."
Bo Yan took two steps forward, stood side by side with her, and looked at the scenery outside the window: "Unfortunately, tomorrow is your birthday on the lunar calendar, but we will probably be delayed at the venue all day."
Xia Siyu said nonchalantly: "Maybe there will be a buff for me on my birthday and I will win a leading actress award?"
Works shortlisted for the main competition unit can automatically participate in the selection of the best male and female protagonists and directors. Although she has no hope of winning the prize now, especially in this kind of PK on the world stage, the difficulty is doubled.
The last time she won an award at Cannes, she missed it. It just so happened that the competition for heroines was fierce that year, and there were not many outstanding candidates for female supporting roles, so she stood out.
But this year, if you can get the best, if you can't get it, just treat it as traveling with Bo Yan.
Hearing her relaxed voice, Boyan knew that she didn't put too much pressure on herself. That's right, this is Xia Siyu. When there is difficulty, she will smile and pretend it didn't happen, and then work hard to fight for it. As long as you try your best, you will have no regrets.
While standing, Bo Yan heard a "Gulu" sound. Xia Siyu turned to look at him with starry eyes, bit her lower lip, and said pitifully: "I'm hungry."
"Let's go and eat."
But it's three o'clock in the afternoon. What restaurant is still open at this time? After all, unlike China, some stores are even open 24 hours a day. In some cities in Western and Southern Europe, shops even open at 11 a.m. and close at 5 or 6 p.m.
Xia Siyu jumped up immediately: "I know this one! It tastes really delicious! It's not too far from here."
Bo Yan asked: "Do you want to make a call first?"
Xia Siyu looked embarrassed: "No need, I called and made an appointment when I was at the airport. They will reserve a seat for me at six o'clock."
This guy probably spent all his skill points on eating and drinking. Bo Yan was a little speechless: "But there are still three hours until six o'clock."
Xia Siyu laughed: "Is this still a problem? Aren't they everywhere in the street?"
At three or four o'clock in the afternoon, it happened to be tea time. Especially on the streets of Italy, many cafes set up a small table outside to drink coffee in the sun.
Since it is afternoon tea, in addition to coffee, there must be refreshments.
Ouch, she had already searched for it before, and she was drooling over the photos of delicious food on the plane. Now that it’s finally here, she must eat enough!
Xia Siyu changed her clothes for a while, then pulled Bo Yan downstairs. When they arrived at the lobby on the first floor, they happened to meet Wei Jingjing. When Wei Jingjing saw them going out, she planned to call a few accompanying security guards, but Xia Siyu stopped her: "No, no one knows us abroad. Just stay here, don't worry. I'll bring you something to eat when I get back."
There is no need to ask which coffee shop has the best coffee, it all depends on the person. Where there are the most locals, so many that you can share a table with others to drink coffee outside, this restaurant must be good. The two sat down and Xia Siyu ordered tiramisu. This dessert was first invented in Italy.
Xia Siyu still quipped: "Do you know the origin of tiramisu? There are several versions, one of which is that in Venice, a boy fell in love with a girl. In order to express his love, he created this Cake. The sweetness is bitter, the bitterness is sweet, the sweetness is honey, the bitterness is coffee cocoa, and the taste is fragrant, which means that lovesickness also has bitterness and sweetness. The girl ate the boy's cake and understood his feelings. Finally married him. This story tells us that if you love her, you must make tiramisu for her! "
After she finished speaking, she blinked and looked at Bo Yan with a look of "You can do whatever you want."
