The group exchanged puzzled looks before Zhou Weiwei nudged Xia Siyu. “Who do you think it’ll be?”
Xia Siyu appeared nonchalant: “l don’t care who it is.”
She also asked, “So we have to live here for the next ten days. Are we allowed to move around freely?”
Hu Juyue pondered for a moment, “Probably not. I guess the crew will give us a task card every day. Otherwise, why bother sending us all the way here, wasting money?”
After saying this, Xia Siyu fell silent for a bit.
Then Li Yiru said with a smile, “1 hope the visitor is a top influencer like us.” The group broke into laughter.
When this topic ended, Hu Juyue stood up and said, “Comrades, no matter what, eating is of utmost importance. The money given by the crew probably won’t be enough for dining out. We’ll need to make a trip to the market regardless.”
Zhou Weiwei countered, “But this is a foreign country, we’re strangers in a strange land, how are we supposed to know where the market is?”
“Use the map,” Shang Feifei immediately responded, “Didn’t the crew return our phones? Just download a map and navigate there.”
The group started searching, and sure enough, there was a market nearby, just a kilometer away.
Well, there was no need to discuss further; they got ready and set out together.
Six people marched out majestically, the crew trailing behind them. The market wasn’t far, but the tangle of small streets and alleys en route made it easy to get lost. This was just the outskirts of Palermo, not the Chinese District; perhaps it was rare to see so many Asian faces, so the passersby looked on curiously.
Luckily it wasn’t the weekend, so the market was open. However, once they arrived, the guests were a bit dumbfounded.
They didn’t speak Italian.
Among the guests, Wang Zisu had been a trainee in Korea and spoke Korean well. The others, despite having traveled abroad extensively, were barely managing with English, let alone Italian.
Looking back at the crew, even if they had translators, they wouldn’t lend you one at this moment; they wanted to see you flounder.
While they were still wondering, Xia Siyu stepped forward and spoke fluently to a vegetable stall owner, who nodded cheerfully. She wasn’t speaking standard Italian, but Sicilian.
With that one sentence, everyone around her was astonished. Zhou Weiwei asked, “How did you…?”
“l took Italian as an elective in college.”
Xia Siyu and Zhou Weiwei were college classmates, even though Xia Siyu dropped out in her junior year. After buying the groceries, the group headed back home triumphantly. Sure enough, they got lost, but Xia Siyu confidently asked for directions.
While the people around didn’t say much, the online comments were quite shocked:
“To be honest, she brought a lot of spices and instant noodles. She’s quite savvy.”
“Does anyone understand what she just said? Italian?”
“I’m dying of laughter. I majored in Italian, and what she said was nowhere near standard. And they’re praising that?”
“Isn’t she supposed to be the school bully? Like ‘bully’ in ‘school bully’!’
Back at the house, Hu Juyue cooked, making the simplest of dishes: tomato and egg stir-fry. Zhou Weiwei boiled noodles, while Wang Zisu was in charge of frying steak.
After the meal was ready, Shang Feifei and Li Yiru cleaned up. Although the live broadcast was a novelty, the audience was slightly disappointed that the anticipated intense conflicts didn’t erupt.
After washing up and resting, the broadcast ended, and the guests each drifted into sleep.
Three in the morning.
Bo Yan, holding a red room card, pushed open the door to Xia Siyu’s room..
