Chapter 148 Vacation
With the huge engine roar, Boeing airliners left the runway, rushed into the sky, and flew into the route to Sydney...
This is the first time Ryan has been to Australia. He is a little curious about this Kangaroo Kingdom. He sat in the first class chair and kept looking through the travel magazine he bought before boarding the plane.
"Do you want something to drink, Ryan?" asked Nicole Kidman, who was sitting next to him.
“Not for now.”
Christmas is coming soon, and for Westerners, this is one of the most important festivals.
Just a few days ago, after five months of hard shooting, "Jurassic Park" was officially closed. This movie has a higher budget, longer shooting time, and more excellent production.
Industrial Light and Magic has completed some later CG special effects, which Ryan has tried and tested, and it is very outstanding.
After such a long shooting, Nicole planned to take a good rest and simply took Ryan back to Australia to spend this Christmas.
Although Nicole's parents died early in this life, Ryan knew that she had a sister in Australia and was invited by the other party when she returned.
In fact, when Ryan talked with Nicole later, he realized that Kidman was a very prominent family in Australia and owned a vast private land.
When it comes to Sydney, the first thing people think of is the Opera House and the Bridge, but in Ryan's unscrupulous memory, the spider, known as the deadliest poisonous spider in the world.
"Nicole, I heard that there is a funnel spider in Sydney that can cause death in fifteen minutes after biting people?" Ryan asked with his head raised.
"Yes." Nicole nodded, obviously knowing what he was thinking, "Ryan, stop your random thoughts. I have only seen this kind of spider in the museum."
"Oh." Ryan seemed to think of something else, "I heard that there is a kind of poisonous snake in Australia..."
"Ryan, shut up!" As Nicole Kidman stared at him, Ryan obediently closed his mouth, "Okay, I'll sleep for a while."
After the plane arrived in Sydney, Ryan experienced a momentary change from winter to summer. He changed into short-sleeved shirt and sweatpants, and then stuck a pair of sunglasses on the bridge of his nose. He dragged his and Nicole's luggage and walked outside the airport.
The Australian girl had already changed into a light-colored dress. In addition to the essential sunglasses, she also wore a wide-edged sun hat on her head, which blocked most of her face. In this country, she was more famous.
Fortunately, it was early summer. Although the weather was a bit stuffy, it was not yet unbearable. As soon as he walked out of the airport passage, Ryan saw a brown-haired woman coming over.
She was a little shorter than Nicole Kidman and had a somewhat similar appearance. Ryan had seen her photo and was Nicole's sister Antonia Kidman.
"Annie, this is Ryan."
After the two sisters greeted each other, Nicole introduced Ryan to her sister.
"Hello, Miss Antonia, I'm glad to meet you."
"Hello, Ryan, you are really only twelve years old? You're so tall, you don't look like you at all."
"Actually, I will be thirteen in a few days."
While the few people were chatting and laughing, they got into the car driven by Antonia. In Ryan's opinion, the journey was pretty good, at least it did not alarm the reporters and paparazzi.
The car did not drive to the hotel and went directly to the suburbs of the city. This is one of the houses left by Nicole's parents. It has a slightly classic British style. It not only has a grassy vestibule, but also a not-so-large back garden.
Although Antonia Kidman lives here before she gets married, Nicole's room has been preserved.
"Ryan, bring the tribute up."
On the second floor, Nicole's shout came. Since he did not bring a bodyguard and assistant, Ryan could only work as a coolie part-time job.
Nicole's suitcase is not heavy, and it's just some clothes inside. Ryan is different. The manuscript easel and other tools he carries are quite substantial. Fortunately, he is strong enough and takes one upstairs with one hand.
"This is your room." Nicole walked into the room opposite, turned to Ryan and said, "Do you need my help, my dear?"
"No, I think you and Annie must have a lot to say, right? I won't bother you."
When Nicole walked out of the room, Ryan simply packed up the salute and simply pierced his head on the bed, causing the jet lag.
When I woke up this time, the sun was dim and it was about to set. After cleaning up my personal problems, Ryan walked downstairs and found that the room was empty and there was a message on the table in the living room, but Nicole and her sister were out shopping.
Christmas is two days later, and now it's the time to buy a big shot. Ryan shook his head and entered the small garden through the back door.
Australia is vast and sparsely populated. Even in a big city like Sydney, people with a little asset often have a good home for reading. Although Antonia introduced it, she said that it was just a small garden, which was actually larger than Ryan and Nicole's home in Los Angeles.
After walking around the garden for a few times, Ryan was quite bored. To put it bluntly, he was a common man in both his past and present life. It was really difficult to discover special beauty in the natural environment.
"Ryan~"
I don't know how long it took, Nicole's shout came from the house, and Ryan replied loudly, "I'm in the garden."
"Well, Annie and I will call you after we have dinner ready, no trouble."
The words that came made Ryan feel dark. Is he so unreliable? Even if there are some words that are proficient occasionally, they are mostly just talk. When did they practice it?
If I were really that unreliable, that old pervert named Joseph Blatt would have already entered the Atlantic Ocean as fish food. Ryan thought indignantly.
In the spacious kitchen, Nicole and Antonia were busy with supper. Watching Nicole skillfully process the ingredients and make delicious foods, Antonia couldn't help but be surprised.
"Nicole, when did your cooking skills become excellent?" In the past, Nicole came back, both of them went to the restaurant to eat.
“It’s always been great.”
"Come on, Nicole, before leaving Australia, even mice can be poisoned by the food you cook." Antonia revealed without mercy.
"Ryan likes to eat food I made by myself. After a few years, his skills will naturally improve."
Nicole said nothing, but Antonia was a little curious, "By the way, Nicole, you really picked up Ryan from the Avenue of Stars? Why don't I have such good luck?"
Her sister's words made Nicole think about the encounter between the two on the Avenue of Stars. Whether it was Ryan she picked up or Ryan's choice, she had never figured out yet. Perhaps this was the destiny of fate and God's will.
"Who knows?" Nicole smiled sweetly.
"Nicole, I've watched a lot of entertainment reports saying that you are very likely to be nominated for Best Supporting Actress next year. Is it true?"
"Before the nomination is announced, anything may appear... Well, Ryan is working with Miramax to join forces with public relations."
"He?" Antonia was even more curious, "He was only thirteen years old in a few days..."
"Annie, Ryan is far precocious and smarter than the media described. What do you think I have developed so smoothly in Hollywood in the past few years? "Nicole is not confused, but on the contrary, he is very smart. Although Ryan never says many things, how could she not understand.
"That circle is much more complicated than here..." Nicole shook her head. She knew that Ryan had kidnapped many alliances with common interests.
"Nicole, if you get nominated again, aren't you going to fight for the best supporting actress Little Golden Man?" Antonia asked with concern.
"I will still do necessary publicity and public relations, but Ryan said that it is still the stage of accumulating qualifications..."
Listening to her sister's words, Antonia gradually savored other meanings. First, she hadn't seen her for more than a year, and Nicole seemed to have changed a lot, especially when she was always inseparable from Ryan. Second, she had accumulated enough qualifications, what should she strive for?
Best Actress! Antonia can only think of this one answer.
They were so confident? Antonia was a little suspicious at first, and then thought about what the boy in the garden had done in the past few years, and immediately realized that it was only a matter of time before her sister won the best actress.
Nicole is so lucky! She can think so at this moment.
The dinner was not very rich, but what Ryan had in front of him was his favorite food, and of course the essential beans.
While waving the knife and fork, the three of them were talking, talking about the topics everywhere and talking about them wherever they thought.
"For food, although British food has a certain history, I don't like it." Ryan was commenting on several famous dishes. "British food is too sweet and not suitable for my appetite. French food is very delicate, so exquisite that it can only be tasted but not full. In comparison, I still like Italian food a little more, and of course pizza is not included."
"He doesn't like fast food like pizza, hamburgers, etc." Nicole said laughingly.
"My favorite is Chinese food." Ryan Jili Gulu recommended a lot of dish names.
"I've been to Chinatown for a meal, but I didn't feel that it was too special." Antonia frowned.
"What you have eaten is Westernized Chinese food."
"Dear, we can't enjoy the authentic Chinese food." Nicole laughed at this time, "Is the Mapo tofu you recommended me to eat last time called this name? Oh, God, after only a few bites, I can't feel my mouth."
Ryan and his men then laughed. After living in North America for so many years, how could he not know that there were very few Westerners who could get used to the authentic Chinese cuisine.
"Nicole, and Ryan, if you can, can you accept an exclusive interview with my show?"
Antonia Kidman is a host of a Sydney TV station. Although she is not as famous as her sister, she is also quite famous.
