“When are you leaving tomorrow?”
Bo Yan was stunned for a moment but then smugly replied, “My flight is at nine in the evening. I can leave after finishing the event in the afternoon.” Xia Siyu asked, “How many days will you be gone?”
Rarely did she ask in such detail, and Bo Yan couldn’t help but say, “Initially, I booked three and a half days.”
They were staying in Italy for ten days, leaving on the morning of the tenth day. Three and a half days was just enough time to go to Germany.
Once in Heidelberg, it was uncertain whether it would still be just the two of them staying together. Although she preferred to share a room with Zhou Weiwei, it was possible she would be paired with Shang Feifei or Li Yiru. It might be better to continue rooming with Bo Yan.
“If you…” Bo Yan looked at her, a trace of hope flickering in his eyes. If she wanted him to come back earlier, he could indeed leave earlier if there wasn’t much to do there.
He hadn’t finished speaking when Xia Siyu interrupted, “Then you should focus on your work. It’s fine if you stay a few more days.”
It would also make it easier for her to rest in bed at night—she could turn off all the cameras! And she wouldn’t have to deal with a man sleeping next to her!
Bo Yan’s expression darkened in an instant. He had so much more he wanted to say, but she had blocked every word.
He snorted dismissively, adopting an indifferent demeanor, and promptly pulled the covers over himself to rest.
Xia Siyu was not giving up: “Um, there is something else I want to ask you.” Since neither of them had a microphone, she felt free to ask anything. Bo Yan didn’t pay her any attention, keeping the covers over his head.
“What kind of person do you think I am?”
Although Wang Zisu had told her that he saw her the same way as her mother and Bo Yan did, she still needed to confirm it for herself.
Without hesitation, Bo Yan said, “An extra.’
Seeing how much he disliked her, Xia Siyu was even more relieved. That’s what she thought: Bo Yan had always been cold towards her, from the past to the present. Even though she was approachable and naturally beautiful, there would always be someone blind enough not to like her.
Feeling more relaxed now, Xia Siyu hummed a tune while she went to turn off the cameras. Though Bo Yan hadn’t uncovered himself, hearing her humming in the background left him with complex emotions.
The next morning, probably after a scolding from his agent, Wu Di was much more diligent about the task.
Struggling until evening before departure, the rest of the cast had to perform a show of reluctance to part. Only Xia Siyu didn’t bother with any pretense; why should she be sad? She was thrilled that Bo Yan was finally leaving!
Before he left, Bo Yan looked back, seeing Xia Siyu from afar, waving a rag (she was tidying up the place) and smiling as she saw him off. The frustration in his heart grew stronger.
Although Bo Yan had left, the task still needed to be finished. In the following two days, Xia Siyu teamed up with Wang Zisu, and they made rapid progress. Finally, on the day the winners and losers were announced, the lowest-ranking team was Zhou Weiwei and Hu Juyue. However, since Hu Juyue had a higher individual score than Zhou Weiwei, she was the only one eliminated, sentenced to work in a café in Taormina for a day.
It was time for Xia Siyu to speak up: “Director, I’ll take her place. I’ve been to Sicily before and am quite familiar with it; visiting as a mere tourist would be a waste. Besides, I speak Italian and can earn more for the travel expenses.”
Her sudden offer to stand in not only shocked the audience but the director as well.
After some consideration, the director agreed.
Xia Siyu was getting ready for her trip to Taormina when unexpectedly, that evening, Bo Yan returned early..
