Capítulo 1551: Chapter 1542: Dreams (8)
Bo Yan was surprised, “Where did this co from?”
Xia Siyu smiled smugly, “I snagged it from the banquet when Wei Jingjing wasn’t paying attention.”
“Snagged? That’s stealing!” Bo Yan was speechless. Wei Jingjing didn’t prepare any food or alcohol in her room because she was dieting, worried she’d sneak sothing in at night.
“Didn’t you already pay? Since you footed the bill, what’s wrong with taking an extra?” Xia Siyu raised her eyebrows, “Do you want to drink or not? If you do, cut the crap.”
Bo Yan nodded, “Since you’ve already taken it…”
“Alright then.” Before coming up, Xia Siyu quickly grabbed two glasses and poured half for each. After a mont, she poured a bit from one glass into the other, giving Bo Yan the smaller one while she took the bigger.
Bo Yan said, “Do you know the story of Kong Rong giving away pears? I’m older, so I should definitely get the bigger one.”
Xia Siyu looked disdainful, “With your little drinking capacity, you want the bigger one? It’s just because we’re in the room that even if you get drunk and act up it won’t matter, otherwise, you wouldn’t have any to drink!”
Bo Yan’s cover of “Shengxia Yanyu” was blown; the only thing left was he actually never gets drunk. He easily flushes when drinking, pretending to get tipsy after a little, all just to take advantage of her. Xia Siyu rembered this and always “took care” of him at dinners.
“What about you, getting puffy from drinking? Wei Jingjing would notice.”
Xia Siyu was still smug, “I already froze so ice cubes, I’ll apply them tomorrow morning.”
Good ice compresses can also be skincare, killing two birds with one stone. Unfortunately, popcorn isn’t the most convenient thing to manage. Eating peanuts or spicy duck neck seems odd when watching these kinds of films.
They continued watching, this episode was about history, starting with primitive totems, then moving to Ancient Greece and Ro, archaeological materials—brothels, so preserved poems and writings, and interspersed with scenes from historical films. Mythology from Ancient Greece was utter chaos. Excluding the myths, archaeological data showed there were brothels very early on, along with unique tools of the ti. Then ca the Middle Ages, repressive on the surface, with an even ssier reality beneath. There were many chastity devices, and plenty of scandalous activities hidden beneath monasteries.
Moving on to the early Renaissance, novels of that era considered it a great honor for the male protagonist to sleep with a lord’s wife, society didn’t reject it but rather celebrated it in great detail. Many novels picked up on this, not only the aforentioned “Decaron” but also “The Three Musketeers” and the like. They encouraged openness, glorified love and freedom.
Thankfully, after so ti of cultural catch-up, Xia Siyu’s cultural level had significantly risen. Having grown up in the West, even if she hadn’t read many books, she had heard of them, and found them quite interesting.
