Chapter 726 The key is to be with the right person
The eastern sky was slightly white, and between the sea and the sky, a hint of light blue was visible in the haziness.
In the darkness, the town of Taormina was quiet and silent, as if it was still asleep.
On the beach, the outlines of seagulls are looming. Sometimes they lower their heads to look for food, and sometimes they look up to look into the distance, as if they are waiting for something.
The air is filled with the salty smell of sea water and the freshness of morning dew, and occasionally you can hear the sound of waves hitting the shore.
"Ah, it's too early, it's not even daybreak yet!" Meng Ziyi came out of the room and stretched, feeling like he couldn't open his eyes.
"Of course you can't go to see the sunrise at daybreak, otherwise there's no point in seeing it.
Come on, you said you wanted to come and see me yesterday~" Gu Wei, wearing a white T-shirt, jeans and a baseball cap, waved and greeted.
While the two were talking, Yang Zi, Wang Junkai and Qin Hailu also came out of the room one after another.
Last night when we were having dinner together, we saw the beautiful sunset in the distance, and then we talked about the sunrise in Sicily. So five people including Gu Wei and Meng Ziyi made an appointment to go out together to watch the sunrise this morning.
"Where should we go?" Yang Zi looked better. She wore a light brown jacket over her little white dress and had a small bag slung across her body.
“There is an observation deck on the beach, not too far away.
After watching the sunrise, we can take a boat out to sea."
Since he planned to get up early to watch the sunrise, Gu Wei fortunately arranged a short trip. A trip to Italy would not be in vain. Since Huang Xiaoming said it was a vacation, there must be some vacation activities.
"Oh, that's great, very thoughtful arrangement!
"Whoever becomes your girlfriend in the future will be blessed, they won't have to worry about anything." Yang Zi said jokingly, with her relationship with Gu Wei, she could joke around without any scruples.
“Ahem~
There might not be enough space in the car for the five of us.
"Well, Yang Zi, why don't you walk over there? It's not very far. We'll wait for you at the observation deck, and you can just consider it as exercise." Gu Wei teased Yang Zi.
"Of course. If I walk there, my sister will definitely not let me go and will definitely walk with me," Yang Zi said, hugging Qin Hailu's arm.
"No, Xiaozi, I want to accompany you, but I got up too early and I'm a little sleepy and can't walk, so we still have to take a car." After Qin Hailu finished speaking, everyone laughed.
Jokes aside, the group set out from their accommodation, got on the crew's seven-seater commercial vehicle, and arrived at the observation deck in less than ten minutes.
The morning light on the sea in the distance gradually became softer, and the clouds on the horizon began to appear golden, indicating that the sun was about to rise.
“So beautiful, really beautiful!
Do you know what I think of when I see this sunrise?"
After arriving at the observation deck, Meng Ziyi looked much more energetic. She was wearing a blue halter dress, a linen shawl, and a white dome hat on her head. She faced the sea breeze and looked towards the place where the sun rose in the distance.
"What?" Gu Wei, who was standing next to her, also looked towards the sea.
"It reminded me of watching the sunset in the Sossusvlei Desert in Africa when we were filming [Divas Hit the Road 3]. It was just as beautiful and stunning!"
“So, the world is so big, only by going out more can you see different scenery~”
Meng Ziyi smiled and turned to look at Gu Wei. His handsome profile looked even more three-dimensional in the dim morning light. His tall figure stood in the sea breeze, like a black hole that focused light, attracting everyone's attention.
She swallowed hard, forced herself to focus her gaze back on the sunrise, and whispered unconsciously, "The key is to be with the right person. Seeing beautiful scenery will make you happy."
While the two were talking, the sun had already slowly risen from the sea level. The sunlight was like a golden sword piercing the boundless darkness, spreading slowly and steadily.
The shimmering sea surface is dotted with golden light, as if countless elves are jumping on the water.
The moment the sun completely jumped out of the sea level, the sky and the earth seemed to be lit up.
The golden sunlight sprinkled on the sea, covering this black world with a layer of gorgeous golden gauze.
The group stared blankly into the distance, all shocked by the beautiful scenery.
After the sun rose completely, according to the guard's prior arrangement, everyone walked to the beach below the observation deck and strolled for a while.
Wait until the sky is bright, take a cruise on the seaside, and circle around the beautiful Bella Island.
The blue sea was crystal clear, seagulls were flying above the sea, and people were starting to move around in the town of Taormina in the distance. Gu Wei and the others' day started with this happy outing.
It was not yet 9 o'clock when everyone returned to the restaurant. After having breakfast together, Huang Xiaoming began to arrange today's work for everyone.
".It's still the same division of labor. Everyone did a great job yesterday, but today is a bit busier than yesterday because of the wedding banquet.
Gu Wei, you have to help out in the kitchen today, and you'll also need to be a guest performer and emcee at the wedding."
"No problem~" Gu Wei shrugged.
"Xiao Kai, too. Before the guests arrive, help Yang Zi and Meng Ziyi set up the tables and chairs in front!"
"clear!"
"In addition to their own work, everyone else tried to help others if they needed help. The wedding was quite a challenge for us.
Come on, everyone! "
"come on!"
After the store manager arranged the work, everyone got into work mode.
Lin Shuwei took Gu Wei and Tong Zhuo to the kitchen to start preparing various dishes. Qin Hailu also went to help, while the others set up the venue in the front hall.
All preparations were completed, and the newlyweds and their guests arrived one after another for the afternoon wedding.
Although it is a wedding banquet, there will definitely not be dozens or hundreds of people like a real wedding.
After all, they are recording a show.
The newlyweds from Italy and their family and friends only had about a dozen people in total.
After helping the kitchen prepare the dishes, Gu Wei went to the front hall to help.
At this time, the [Chinese Restaurant] was filled with a festive atmosphere of a wedding after everyone's decoration. Red wedding characters were pasted on the walls and pillars of the room, and the ceiling was decorated with streamers and balloons. The newlyweds wore Chinese-style groom's and bride's outfits brought by Gu Wei.
In the middle of the restaurant, all the tables were stacked together to form a long strip, on which were placed various dishes prepared by the kitchen. According to the request of the newlyweds, this was a buffet-style wedding banquet.
When Gu Wei came out of the kitchen, Huang Xiaoming was introducing the various dishes on the table to the guests.
"Gu Wei, come here!" Yang Zi waved to him in the corner.
Next to her was a set of equipment including an electronic keyboard and a microphone.
"It's time for you to perform!"
Gu Wei walked over and wiped his hands, which were still wet from washing vegetables, on the apron on his chest. Then he sat down in front of the electronic keyboard, casually pressed a minor tune, and tried out the tone.
"What song do you want to play?" he asked Yang Zi beside him.
"Just play whatever you want~"
Gu Wei thought about it and casually pressed the piano keys. The beautiful melody spread out and filled the entire restaurant. The guests were also attracted by the sound.
The song he played was an English song called "I Love You", which is a very suitable song for a wedding.
“I love you
Say we're together baby"
After the prelude ended, Gu Wei started singing just two lines when Yang Zi beside him tugged at his sleeve and whispered, "The program said we don't have the copyright to play this song. Could you please replace it?"
Gu Wei rolled his eyes: "I need to know which songs we've bought the copyright for that I can sing."
While the two of them were talking, a staff member brought up a piece of paper with the names of several love songs on it. It seemed that they were prepared by the program crew.
Gu Wei stopped singing a song just as it started. The Italians watching him didn't understand why and started shouting and applauding, meaning that Gu Wei should continue singing.
At this time, Wang Junkai also came over and Gu Wei glanced at him.
"Xiao Kai, I'll play [Only], let's sing together~" Gu Wei doesn't care how much screen time he gets on the variety show. With his fame and popularity, he will definitely get the most screen time as long as he is there, so he is also willing to give others some opportunities.
"Okay, Brother Wei!" Wang Junkai nodded with a smile, very grateful for Gu Wei's kindness.
Gu Wei's ten fingers pressed on the keyboard, and Wang Lihong's "The Only One" began immediately.
"My sky is so clear
The promise of transparency is a thing of the past
”
He sang a section first, and then signaled Wang Junkai to take over.
When it came to the climax, the two of them sang together again. Although it was their first collaboration, the effect was surprisingly good.
When they sang the climax of "Baby, you are my only one", the guests around cheered and applauded.
After a song was finished, Yang Zi couldn't wait to say: "Play a song for me, I want to sing too!"
"Choose a song. There aren't many songs you can sing. It depends on what you want to sing." Gu Wei handed her the playlist.
Yang Zi took a quick look and saw that most of the songs were boys' songs and there were very few that she was good at. She frowned slightly.
Gu Wei glanced at her and thought for a moment: "[Liangliang] Can you do it?"
This song was the ending theme song he wrote for the TV series "Eternal Love". He owns the copyright and can sing it freely.
Moreover, after the hit of "Three Lives, Three Worlds", this song also became popular and became a song performed by brides and grooms at many weddings in China, which is very suitable for the current occasion.
Yang Zi's eyes lit up after hearing what he said: "Sure, sure, I can do this!"
"Okay, you start and I'll sing the male vocals." After saying that, Gu Wei began to play the piano.
"As the night gets cooler
Flowers fall to the ground and turn into frost
You are looking in the distance
”
Yang Zi's singing level can only be considered as ordinary KTV level, but this time she performed well, and the effect was very good with the assistance of Gu Wei.
Meng Ziyi sat next to Yang Zi, clapping to the rhythm and singing along, but there was no microphone in front of her, so her small voice was not noticeable in the noisy environment.
These Italian foreigners obviously have never heard music of the style of "Liangliang", but they can still tell whether it is good or not.
After the singing, there was another round of applause and cheers.
The entire wedding banquet was filled with a joyful atmosphere. In addition to the music performances, an Italian couple, dressed in bright red wedding attire, performed a Chinese-style veil ceremony, drank from their cups of wine, and kissed intimately amidst the cheers of everyone.
As night fell, the joyful wedding banquet came to an end amid the affectionate evening breeze.
Huang Xiaoming gave a box of dates, peanuts, longans and lotus seeds to the newlyweds and told them that it meant wishing them a son soon.
As the lights flickered, the laughter came to an end.
The guests in the Chinese restaurant left and everyone worked together to clean up the remaining stalls.
“Thank you everyone, you were fantastic today!
Okay, we'll take care of the rest tomorrow, now everyone go back and have some rest!"
Huang Xiaoming is a very qualified store manager. He saw that everyone was tired, encouraged and thanked them, and then arranged for everyone to go back and rest.
The next morning, Gu Wei and Meng Ziyi said goodbye to several people from the [Chinese Restaurant], ended their two-day trip to Italy, and boarded the plane back home.
August 7th, the seventh day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar, is the day when the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl meet on the Magpie Bridge, and it is also Chinese Valentine's Day.
Gu Wei has been very busy since he got up early in the morning. On such a special day, he would inevitably send a message or even make a phone call to his close female friends such as Nazha, Reba, Zhang Tianai, etc.
Gifts are also sent by mail in advance to ensure that the other party can receive them today.
Fortunately, he is in the entertainment industry. It is normal for a top star in the domestic entertainment industry like Gu Wei to be busy 365 days a year.
So no one would mind not being able to meet on Valentine's Day. Everyone was busy with work, so Gu Wei didn't need to become a time management master.
Meng Ziyi is particularly happy today.
[Eastern Palace] premieres tonight and will be available on TV and video platforms simultaneously.
She and Gu Wei will also have a fan meeting in Beijing, and will also be interviewed by reporters arranged by Youku Video.
Meng Ziyi was very satisfied with her look today.
Her long, wavy black hair draped over her shoulders, and her fair face in the mirror had delicate features. Her big, watery eyes were beneath her long eyelashes that looked like small brushes.
She wore a white lace blouse on the upper body and a black knee-length pleated skirt on the lower body. Her smooth long legs were not wearing anything, and she wore a pair of blue and white sneakers on her feet. A youthful breath came to her face, beautiful and full of energy.
"Stop being so conceited, it's almost time to go!"
In the office, Gu Wei put down the documents in his hand, stood up from behind the desk, and said something to Meng Ziyi who was admiring herself in front of the dressing mirror.
"Oh~"
"By the way, this is a gift for you. Happy holidays!"
Gu Wei, who was about to stand up, remembered something and sat down again and took out a beautifully wrapped gift box from the cabinet under his desk.
"Wow! Thank you!" Although I knew I would receive a gift, I was still very surprised when I received it.
"Can I open it?"
Gu Wei raised his hand to signal.
Meng Ziyi opened the package and found a box with the Cartier logo printed on it.
"What beautiful earrings! They should be this summer's new model. I think I've seen them on the official website before!"
"As long as you like it~
Put it away, we're leaving!"
Meng Ziyi couldn't let go of the earrings in her hand. They were not very expensive. Her family conditions were good and her income was not low after becoming a star. But since they were a gift from Gu Wei, they had a different meaning.
"Wait for me to change~"
After saying that, she stood in front of the dressing mirror with a new pair of platinum diamond earrings and began to replace the ones she was wearing.
After changing, he turned around and looked at Gu Wei.
"How is it? Does it look good?"
"Very beautiful!" Gu Wei praised with a smile.
