Chapter 513 [78] Liu Yifei gives Chen Yu a huge birthday surprise!
"You don't have to cut your hair to copy it, right?"

Watching Liu Yifei rushing into a hair salon on the street like those crazy girls who punched in in later generations, Chen Yu shook his head slightly.

Finally, Liu Yifei, with the same short hair as Hepburn, appeared in front of Chen Yu.

No matter how I look at it...it feels awkward.

Although her current appearance is very good and she is not ugly with short hair, it is definitely not as beautiful as with long flowing hair, and Chen Yu is not used to it.

But the girl was brave enough to take responsibility, and Chen Yu could not spoil her interest. After half a year, her hair grew long.

Letting her show some personality before her birthday was also a form of celebration in disguise, so Chen Yu didn't think too much about it.

"This is the most unforgettable day, of course I have to commemorate it well!"

"Besides, since this is our Roman Holiday, shouldn't we go through it all? You're acting so hard?"

Liu Yifei, who looked very capable with her short hair, pointed at the prop costume on Chen Yu.

"Okay, where's the next stop?"

Why does Chen Yu have the feeling that Liu Yifei has the initiative in his hands? Originally, he was the one who arranged this itinerary?
But once this girl cut her hair short, her temperament changed instantly, and she indeed had a bit of Hepburn's style.

"The Colosseum!"

"I just got a haircut and I've already asked about the itinerary!"

As she spoke, Liu Yifei took Chen Yu to a filming location at the very beginning of "Roman Holiday", one of the most famous attractions in Rome.

Here, the triumphal arch of Constantine, another emperor of the Roman Empire, stands.

This is the place where you must take photos and visit when you come to Rome.

"Mission Impossible 3, why not film here?"

Chen Yu was taking pictures of Liu Yifei, and she was asking curiously.

“Because I’m not making a romance film!”

Chen Yu's answer made Liu Yifei laugh out loud. This was indeed the truth; the reason why the Vatican was chosen was because that place fits the plot.

It's a country within a city, with strict guards. Being able to sneak in without being noticed and still complete the mission, doesn't this prove the agent's strength?

Next, the two went to the Pantheon, the Roman Forum... and finally came to an equally classic scene in the film - the Mouth of Truth.

This is where the relationship between the male and female protagonists undergoes a qualitative change in the movie.

The Mouth of Truth is a marble sculpture resembling a human face with nose, eyes and a wide open mouth, located on the porch of the Basilica of Santa Maria del Cosmedin in Rome.

This church looks small and quiet, but it is famous all over the world, all because of "Roman Holiday".

According to legend, if someone puts his hand into this mouth and does not tell the truth, it will bite that person's hand.

Therefore, tourists who come here to sightsee put their hands into the mouth to try whether they will be bitten; because thousands and thousands of hands have been stretched in and out of the Mouth of Truth, this big mouth has been polished to a shine by people's fingers.

"The Mouth of Truth. Legend has it that if you lie and put your hand in, this mouth will bite your hand off!"

Chen Yu pointed to the location of the Mouth of Truth and said to Liu Yifei with a smile.

This is a line from "Roman Holiday". Liu Yifei stood there with her hands back, her body straight and elegant, but she showed a frightened look: "How terrible!"

"try it yourself!"

Chen Yu pointed at the big mouth, and Liu Yifei's expression became a little serious. She glanced at Chen Yu. At this moment, she didn't know whether she was thinking of Hepburn or herself. She took a deep breath, closed her eyes and then opened them, and slowly... reached her hand into the Mouth of Truth.

Chen Yu could sense that Liu Yifei was out of character in this scene, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he looked at her and put his hand into his mouth.

She looked so nervous, and I didn't know where the nervousness came from.

In the movie, Hepburn didn't dare to reach in in the end.

Many film critics said that this paragraph reflected the ending of the movie; because she herself was not sure whether she had fallen in love with the male protagonist, so she did not dare to, she was afraid that the mouth of truth would determine that she was a liar; sometimes, people clearly know that these are superstitions, but when it comes to themselves, they have a feeling that it is better to believe it than not to believe it.

Humans are such complex creatures.

Swish!
Liu Yifei reached into the Mouth of Truth, felt the flexibility in her hands, and finally let out a long breath.

She suddenly laughed, took out her hand, and said to Chen Yu: "It's your turn!"

"..."

Chen Yu felt that Liu Yifei was a little weird, as if she was completing some kind of ritual. Chen Yu shrugged his shoulders, of course there was nothing to be afraid of, and put his hand into her mouth, almost putting half of his arm in.

Just as he was about to take it out, Liu Yifei suddenly asked: "Chen Yu, do you love me?"

This sudden question made Chen Yu suddenly understand something, and then he suddenly felt the coldness on his hands.

How can I describe this feeling? It's very mysterious.

Chen Yu firmly believed that he was an atheist.

But when you are reborn, this atheistic judgment suddenly becomes a little shaken in his heart.

"like!"

"extremely love!"

After Chen Yu finished speaking firmly, he suddenly felt a surge of power emerging from the right hand in the Mouth of Truth; he didn't know if it was an illusion or something else.

"Ok!"

Liu Yifei suddenly smiled sweetly and said to Chen Yu: "I believe it, take it out!"

"what--"

The sudden sound startled Liu Yifei.

Chen Yu suddenly grabbed his right hand with his left hand in pain, but couldn't get it out. His face showed an extremely miserable expression. Liu Yifei's face changed color, and she hurried forward to support Chen Yu's body: "Are you okay?"

Chen Yu's teeth were chattering.

Liu Yifei glanced at Chen Yu in panic. Chen Yu's facial features were distorted and he grinned, "I...I can't seem to get my hand out!"

"..."

Liu Yifei hurried forward and hugged Chen Yu, grabbed his right arm with both hands and pulled him out with force.

pat!

Chen Yu's right hand was finally taken out, but there was only a cuff, and it seemed that his hand was really gone.

"what--"

Liu Yifei covered her mouth and looked up with a look of fear.

Chen Yu suddenly stretched out his hand, and his hand suddenly came out from his sleeve: "Hello!"

"You...you bastard!"

Liu Yifei hit Chen Yu hard, feeling a bit amused and helpless.

Chen Yu hugged her and kissed her: "It's okay, don't worry, I was just scaring you!"

"I'm not worried. Isn't this just acting in cooperation with you?"

"Ha ha!"

Liu Yifei suddenly raised her head and smiled. Of course, this scene also appeared in "Roman Holiday", and the male protagonist scared Princess Anne in the same way.

"so fun!"

Thinking of the scene just now, Liu Yifei couldn't help laughing.

The two of them even acted a little addicted.

"Let's go, are we done shopping?"

Chen Yu walked towards the photographer behind him, but Liu Yifei stood there and asked, "Chen Yu, when you put your hand in and answered me just now, was that also acting?"

"No, that part, it's not acted!"

"Because, it's not in the movie, you asked me!"

Chen Yu turned around and spoke sincerely.

Liu Yifei nodded and said seriously, "Me too, I didn't lie when I reached in!"

“I told myself, I’m determined!”

The two of them snuggled together, watching the interaction of the Mouth of Truth that had just been captured, and both felt that it was very meaningful.

On this day, they acted out scenes from "Roman Holiday", but what they felt was the love between each other.

As night fell and the warm yellow lights around the Trevi Fountain Square lit up one by one, Chen Yu and Liu Yifei stood there, facing the wishing pool in the fountain, making a wish.

This was proposed by Liu Yifei.

Looking around, the initial appearance of history is like the initial appearance of love. At the end of Roman Holiday, the love between the princess and the reporter was expressed in a very restrained way, which also verified the saying that if you like someone, you will be unrestrained, while love is restraint.

Like Chen Yu and Liu Yifei, countless people crossed their hands on their chests and prayed devoutly for something.

Chen Yu’s wish was very simple. The moment he saw Liu Yifei after his rebirth, he had even thought of a name for his child. He just wanted to have a good life with the girl next to him. But Liu Yifei seemed very greedy.

"I hope that the person I love can win the Best Actor Award at the Venice Film Festival!"

"I hope he can win the Oscar for Best Actor!"

"I hope he can win the Grand Slam, the Golden Slam, and I hope I can win a domestic, or preferably an international, Best Actress award!"

"I hope I can live happily with him forever!"

"I hope……"

It is said that when you make the most sincere wish, you should include your home address so that the wish will come true; only then will God or the heavens help send the blessing to your home.

This is a foreign country, so it should be God, right?

Chen Yu was guessing, looking at Liu Yifei who had been wishing for 3 minutes without stopping, and thought that this girl might have wished too much.
Her lips moved, but Chen Yu couldn't hear what she was saying. In fact, Liu Yifei was reporting her place of residence.

"The Chinese capital..."

After saying the address, Liu Yifei opened her eyes and smiled at Chen Yu beside her: "Okay!"

They had already thrown in the coins for making a wish, and Liu Yifei scattered a handful.

"How many wishes have you made? If there are too many wishes, then you can't..."

"Bah, bah, bah, I told you not to talk nonsense!"

Liu Yifei glared at Chen Yu and covered Chen Yu's mouth with her hand: "Quick, say bah bah bah!"

"Well, bah, bah, bah..."

This girl is quite serious.

Chen Yu had no choice but to do as he was told. Liu Yifei even tapped him on the shoulder: "What wish I made is none of your business!"

"Okay, okay, I don't care. I hope my wife's wish will come true!"

"Can you tell me about it?"

To be honest, Chen Yu was quite curious and moved closer to Liu Yifei.

Liu Yifei shook her head, her short hair couldn't even be tied into a ponytail, leaving Chen Yu with only a messy head of hair, but her soft and sweet voice was very clear: "If you say your wish out loud, it won't come true!"

"All right!"

Chen Yu stepped forward and held Liu Yifei's hand.

The two were holding hands and swinging their arms, but Liu Yifei suddenly said, "I hope I can do whatever I want all day long. I want to sit in a roadside cafe, go shopping, take a walk in the rain, have fun, and even seek excitement!"

"Can you grant me one last wish? I want to smoke a cigarette?"

Like Princess Anne in the movie?
"Is this the last thing you want to do today?"

"Yup!"

"Of course, although it's not good for girls to smoke, it's still okay to smoke occasionally!"

Two people bought a pack of cigarettes and suddenly started smoking on the side of the road; in 02, there was apparently no rule prohibiting smoking in public places.

Looking at the endless stream of people and vehicles coming and going, Chen Yu had no interest in smoking, but Liu Yifei smoked very elegantly, just like the woman smoking in Wang Jiawei's camera.

It seemed like this wasn't her first time smoking: "Is this really your first time smoking?"

"Yeah, but I've learned a lot of smoking positions!"

"Whoo~~~"

Liu Yifei blew a puff of smoke at Chen Yu, looking a little dazed in the smoky air and the gorgeous night view of Rome: "Every city has its own unique and unforgettable features. It's hard for me to say which one is the best, but——"

When the smoke cleared, Liu Yifei's eyes were sultry and bold: "Rome! I love Rome the most. I will cherish the memories of our day in Rome forever!"

This is Hepburn's last line in the film.

The male protagonist did not answer her.

"What about you?"

Liu Yifei smiled, but she wanted to know the answer.

"Well, it's also my most unforgettable day!"

"For eternity?"

It didn't come to that, and Chen Yu didn't want to lie to her. He took a puff of cigarette, trying to change the subject, and turned his body to face the road.

"Let's go, your princess is already satisfied!"

"I also want to satisfy my prince. I hope he will remember this day forever!"

Liu Yifei crushed the cigarette butt, as if she had received a signal.

"Husband, the rest of the time belongs to you!"

boom!
As the cigarette butts went out, brilliant fireworks suddenly lit up in the sky above the Plaza de España behind the two people.

scoff-

The sky was brightened up a bit by the colorful lights.

Countless tourists who were admiring the night view of Rome couldn't help but look up, obviously confused.

Why are there fireworks out of nowhere?

Although Rome had not implemented city fireworks control in 05, it is still rare to see fireworks set off in the square these days.

"Hubby, happy 22nd birthday!!"

Amid the explosion of fireworks, Liu Yifei shouted to Chen Yu, her eyes red and her voice choked up: "I love you, thank you for everything you have given me!"

"Do you like this surprise I gave you?"

"..."

Chen Yu blankly felt the fireworks behind him, and looked at the beautiful face in front of him, which was blurred and smiling under the city lights. He was moved and touched: "I like it. I will never forget it!"

This time, it was enough to make him unforgettable forever.

"Then you must love me very much?"

Liu Yifei laughed, and Chen Yu responded with a passionate kiss.

Click! Click!
A hired photographer not far away captured the scene instantly. With the background of gorgeous fireworks, the two people hugged each other tightly, as if forever.

In a corner of the city, several people acted as witnesses.

"Xixi is really thoughtful. Where can this kid find such a good girlfriend?"

"I came all the way here just to give him a birthday!"

"And it's such a grand show..."

Shen Xiaoqin wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and burst into laughter.

Chen Peidong and Liu Xiaoli were also standing there, with tears in their eyes.

Liu Xiaoli did not disturb the two of them today, but went to prepare for Chen Yu's birthday and even found a local tour guide.

This was of course what Liu Yifei had thought of before coming here.

"Roman Holiday" is the regret of the male and female protagonists, not the regret of her and Chen Yu.

For this purpose, Chen Yu's parents were also called in.

"I forgot that today is my birthday..."

Chen Yu hugged Liu Yifei, he really didn't remember it.

The main thing was that Liu Yifei was here, and he was just thinking about how to have a good time with her for the whole day. He didn't really think much about anything else.

"It's okay, I'll do the same when you remember!"

"I said, the next period of time belongs to you!"

Liu Yifei's face was flushed. After she finished speaking, she looked around. When she saw Liu Xiaoli and the other two standing in the square, she waved to them. Chen Yu looked at his parents standing there, and he was petrified.

Unexpectedly, Liu Yifei actually called his parents over.

This daughter-in-law has done a really good job!
