"I should just stay at a hotel," said Meng Xin Zhi after the assistant had left.

"I can understand a little bit of very basic Italian, and if I combine that with the actual situation here, I could guess," she replied.
"Are you sure you only know a little bit?" Nie Guangyi began to recall his conversation with the assistant.
