Bo Yan was taken aback, then looked toward the director, who announced, “Today, Xia Siyu and Wang Zisu are in one team. You and Wu Di are in another.’
No sooner had the words left his mouth than Wang Zisu and Wu Di both cheered. Wu Di looked at Bo Yan with a smile, “Brother Yan, I look forward to learning from you.”
Bo Yan did not respond but simply nodded. Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced over at the corner where Wang Zisu was particularly happy. If it weren’t for the camera lens filming them, he would probably have buried himself in Xia Siyu’s embrace.
Bo Yan drew back his legs as the director continued, “Moreover, the team allocations for today and tomorrow will be counted toward the final rankings. The winning team will receive a special reward on the last day: a visit to the Grand Cathedral Square of the Ortigia Island Cathedral in Syracuse, which is featured in ‘The Beautiful Legends of Sicily.”
The guests who came to participate in the show were more or less actors, and indeed they aspired to ‘The Beautiful Legends of Sicily’. Regardless of whether they had been here or not, for the sake of the show’s effect, they at least had to pretend to be very happy.
But Xia Siyu was not among them.
She was only concerned, “And the team that’s lagging behind? They won’t have to stay in the villa, will they?”
The director was momentarily at a loss for words; this person always veered off the script.
Fortunately, they were prepared, “The team with the lowest score will work in a café for a day while the others are visiting, to earn money for the train ticket to Germany.”
To Xia Siyu, working was no big deal; it wasn’t something she cared about.
Her only question was, “Where will we be working? Not here, right?”
Even though she didn’t say anything, her expression was one of disdain.
The director picked up the conversation, “Not here, in Taormina. It’s a seaside town not too far from here.’
Upon hearing the name Taormina, Xia Siyu quieted down in an instant. Wang Zisu, beside her, was puzzled but clenched her little fist, “Sister Siyu, we won’t lose.’
Xia Siyu smiled but did not respond.
Only Bo Yan glanced in her direction, then bowed his head, seemingly pondering something.
The teams soon set off separately. The previous days had been in simple mode for the program team, the tasks were tiring, but not difficult to complete. Unexpectedly, it suddenly turned into competition mode.
Especially for Xia Siyu and Bo Yan’s teams, since they had male members, the program team increased the difficulty. The first two teams had left by bus, but they had to wait another half hour before they could depart.
Bo Yan was already a man of few words, and Wu Di was rather proud by nature. The two of them stood together, with Wu Di speaking to him unilaterally from time to time, and Bo Yan responding briefly. However, his voice was not very loud, nor was his attitude particularly enthusiastic.
On the other hand, Xia Siyu had always been loud and expressive, and Wang Zisu was also the playful type. The two came together, one moment chatting away, the next moment Wang Zisu teaching her to sing and playing his own compositions for her.
The key was that for listening to music, Wang Zisu brought headphones, and of the earbuds, one was for him, and the other for Xia Siyu. The headphone cord wasn’t very long, so the two had to be close to each other to listen.
The vehicle was a seven-seater, with Bo Yan and Wu Di in the last row and Xia Siyu and Wang Zisu in the row in front of them. Whenever there was a sharp turn, Wang Zisu’s phone fell down and the headphone cord flew out, causing Xia Siyu to lean to the side. Bo Yan, sitting in the middle of the back row, just managed to catch her by the shoulder.
His voice was somewhat cold, “You should be careful when riding in the car, to avoid straining your back.”
