Chapter 943: Leaving Bosnia and Herzegovina, Preparing to Go Home
I had a very enjoyable meal.
When that kind fan recommended the restaurant, they must have considered Xiao He's situation. The restaurant they recommended not only had good food, but also had locals who didn't care about the identities of these out-of-towners. So, there wouldn't have been a situation where Xiao He was surrounded by fans halfway through his meal.
So Xiao He ate very happily, and none of the group was disturbed by others.
After everyone had eaten, they inevitably started talking about the rest of the trip.
As he told his fans during his previous live stream, Xiao He will not stay in Bosnia and Herzegovina to wait for the award results. Instead, he will return to China with his team ahead of the rest of the troupe.
Xiao He will be very busy in December and next year, with many events requiring his participation. The various galas and banquets at the end of the month will be proof of Xiao He's popularity this year.
So after they had rested here, they prepared to go back.
After the laughter subsided, everyone felt a little reluctant to part with Xiao He.
Because they knew that such cooperation was only temporary, and given Xiao He's increasingly successful career, it was very likely that this would be the only time in his life.
Xiao He's future doesn't lie here, and perhaps it's not just in the entertainment industry.
His demonstrated abilities and personal charisma mean that everything he's doing now is just a small part of his journey forward in life.
And it will be difficult for them to sit together as casually as they are today, chatting about their past, gossip, and everything else, while enjoying delicious food and laughing heartily, not caring about those harmless little jokes, and not putting on airs, but swaying and staggering without any regard for their image, as if they were drunk—even though many people in the troupe never drink alcohol in order to maintain their figures.
So when it was all about to end, they felt as if they had suddenly woken up from a dream.
A feeling of reluctance spread.
"Xiao He, I'm telling you, I really—"
Yang Heng sat down next to Xiao He, put his arm around Xiao He's shoulder, and after a long pause, he didn't say much. He simply touched Xiao He's wine glass with his teacup and said, "I am really grateful that you accepted my invitation that day and came here. I am also very happy to be able to collaborate with you this time and create such a work... There are so many thanks I can't express them all. I can't drink alcohol, so I will toast you with tea instead."
Xiao He touched him with his hand, then smiled and said, "You know, I don't really care about those things."
His current achievements are enough for him to do whatever he wants.
“I really like the subject matter and content of ‘The Root of Evil’.”
Xiao He said very sincerely, "And it is undeniable that evil gods are indeed the kind of roles I prefer to play."
Playing seven psychopaths in one go, how can that not be considered a hobby?
Yang Heng was amused by Xiao He, then took out his phone and sent Xiao He a link.
"Oh right, the teacher asked me to send this to you. Remember to have your agent pick it up later."
Xiao He took it out and glanced at it, only to find that it was the certificate for a third-level actor.
—This was an exam he took while rehearsing with Yang Heng before going to Hong Kong, and now he can finally get the certificate.
It was worth it for him to build good relationships with several teachers and professors at the theater during that time.
This efficiency will be demonstrated when needed.
"Thank you, and please convey my gratitude to Quyuan as well."
Xiao He said.
"certainly!"
Yang Heng poured himself another cup of tea, then drank it down in one gulp with great gusto, as if he were drinking wine rather than tea.
Xiao He couldn't help but chuckle.
...
The following day, after formally bidding farewell to the theater troupe who had come to see them off, Xiao He and his team embarked on their journey back to China.
On the way, Xiao Chen was still a little reluctant: "Sigh, that dried sausage from that shop is really super delicious. It's just a pity that they don't have the means to preserve it there, otherwise I would have bought some to take back with me."
"That's called Balkan sausage."
Xiao He kindly offered a reminder.
Liu Rulan said, "Don't worry, I've already found a local cold chain logistics company and talked to the troupe's logistics staff. When the troupe returns together, they'll bring back some local specialties for us."
The troupe has a lot of people and props, so they will be shipping together. They can bring a lot of things, so Liu Rulan had already discussed it with them.
"Yay! As expected of the all-powerful Mother Liu!"
"Yay! Long live Sister Liu!"
This time it was Xiao He and Xiao Chen's turn to celebrate together.
Liu Rulan chuckled, took out her phone to check the time, and then instructed, "Alright, talk less and save your energy. We need to transfer flights this time, and it'll be quite troublesome along the way. Save your energy! Don't let people see you looking dejected when you get back."
"OK, OK!"
Xiao He put the U-shaped pillowcase around his neck and answered lazily.
Soon, they landed at another airport.
-
There are no direct flights from Saskatchewan back to China, so they need to transfer in Iraq, another country.
Estonia is the most developed city in the region in terms of both culture and economy, and it also boasts many tourist attractions, making it one of the most popular tourist destinations in the area.
However, having heard that things had been rather unsettled here recently, Xiao He and his group had no intention of staying any longer. They didn't even leave the airport, intending to stay there and wait for their next flight.
Meanwhile, there were many other people on the same journey as them.
First was Zong Jiwei. After watching the performance of "The Root of Evil," he prepared to return to China for work.
So he also chose to take the connecting flight the following day.
Secondly, there are other Xiao He fans.
Although Xiao He had forcibly delayed the notification in an attempt to prevent fans from coming to Bosnia and Herzegovina, some fans who reacted quickly still flew to Bosnia and Herzegovina overnight to support Xiao He.
These fans are usually on short trips and have little interest in local tourist destinations in Bosnia and Herzegovina. They mainly come for Xiao He, so after reading Xiao He's "The Root of Calamity", they also choose to take a flight back to China the next day.
This route is very fixed; basically, everyone who chooses to return to China today takes the same route, and there are no other flight options.
So it was clearly visible to the naked eye that there were many Chinese people in the airport today.
-
"What's going on today? Where did so many Chinese people come from?"
An airport staff member sat lazily in his seat and said with great confusion.
"It seems to be because of a foreign celebrity."
Another staff member replied, "You'd better keep an eye on Eljan. He hates Chinese people the most. You'd better not cause any trouble."
"How can I keep an eye on him? I've received several complaints, but he's still doing fine."
The staff member curled his lip and glanced at the flight schedule in front of him: "But it's alright, they won't be staying for too long—besides, to be honest, that guy is incredibly mean to everyone, even if he's treated equally! When is he finally going to get out of here? No matter what the supervisor thinks, he can't be allowed to continue discriminating against those tourists!"
"Hmph, who knows?"
The others shrugged.
"I can only hope that these guys don't run into that mean-spirited fellow."
