The Best Actor Insists On Living With Me!

Chapter 166: 166: Mom-and-Pop Store (4)

Was there something special about this Heart-shaped beach? Was there a myth that lovers would receive a blessing if they visited, or was there some other situation?

He took the opportunity when no one was around to pull out his phone and search on Baidu. There indeed was a story: it was said that the small island, named Bella Island, was once a gift from the Duke of Milan to his lady to win her favor. The island was home to many precious animals and plants, and later on, it was designated as a natural reserve by the World Wildlife Fund, and it is still open to the public now.

Today the weather was clear, and there were quite a few people sunbathing on the beach.

But the question was, why did Xia Siyu stare at this island? There certainly were houses on the island, but she couldn’t have lived there. And it’s unlikely that she had any connection with those foreigners lying in the sun below.

Today was her last day in Sicily; she would be leaving tomorrow morning. Why did she keep staring at that little island?

If, according to Pietro, Xia Siyu lived in Sicily, then she should have some acquaintances here. Moreover, Pietro had said that Xia Siyu lived in the Chinese District. She had also requested to swap tasks with Zhou Weiwei, so she probably lived nearby.

Two more customers arrived, and Xia Siyu skillfully went to greet them. Bo Yan listened carefully and realized that Xia Siyu was speaking the Sicilian language.

A local.

After the customers sat down, she placed their order with Bo Yan, “One cappuccino, one espresso, double for the espresso.”

Bo Yan nodded, expertly selecting the coffee beans as per the coffee house blend ratio, made the coffee, left the latte art part to the barista, and then quickly had Xia Siyu take it away.

When more customers came, Xia Siyu went out to serve them at the outdoor seating area. Bo Yan, seizing the moment, came out and started with a smile, speaking in English, “How’s the coffee? Anything that needs improvement? Sicily is really a nice place, isn’t it?”

After casually asking a few questions, he got straight to the point, “I haven’t been in Sicily long and I want to buy some things in the Chinese District. Do you know where it is?”

One of them was quite enthusiastic and stood up, waving an arm, “Over there.”

Bo Yan followed the direction of his gesture and saw that it was in the same direction as Bella Island. As he was puzzling over it, he looked beyond Bella Island to the coastline in the distance—so it turned out that Xia Siyu wasn’t looking at Bella Island, but at the coastline behind it. There was a row of sea-facing houses along the coastline, probably ten or so kilometers away, likely the location of the Chinese District!

Last time they met, Pietro had made a point to say that Xia Siyu lived with her mother, and her mother was also very beautiful.

Indeed, he knew Xia Siyu’s brother and sister, Xia Ju’an and Xia Sicai, who had delicate features and belonged to the better-looking crowd among the rich second generation.

But not like her, undisputedly beautiful, stunningly breathtaking.

And moreover.

Doctor Bo Yan had studied film culture and art and had watched countless movies. He always felt that Xia Siyu’s appearance resembled that of a certain star. However, for the moment, he couldn’t recall whom she looked like.

No matter what, Xia Siyu’s mother was an enigma; he had never heard of this person from her, her father, or her brother and sister.

Initially, he suspected Xia Siyu might be illegitimate, but his father-in-law, Xia Youbiao, had seriously stated that her mother was not a mistress or a ‘small three’; Xia Siyu was a legitimate child born in wedlock.
