Chapter 415: Chapter 414: Because of You (1)
Although Bo Yan had been by her side these days, she had gradually gotten used to interacting with him. In fact, if the guy didn’t make too much of a fuss, she couldn’t be bothered to resist.
But being accustomed is one thing, liking is another.
Right now, she was merely used to having Bo Yan around, and far from liking him.
Even the word “like” still carried a tone of rejection for her.
The worst part was that she couldn’t get out of her marriage to Bo Yan until she had won the Best Actress award and proven herself to her family. Foolishly, she had handed him the leverage, agreeing not to move out.
And she needed to rely on Bo Yan’s power to win Best Actress quickly.
Isn’t this just like delivering oneself to slaughter, how could Bo Yan not take a bite?
Xia Siyu had always been decisive in her actions; she either liked something or she didn’t. When she liked something, she would chase it fervently; when she didn’t, she would discard it like an old shoe.
Unfortunately, Bo Yan clung to her, and she couldn’t shake him off or escape, only to be wrapped up in his embrace, deeply uncomfortable.
“Siyu, what’s wrong?” Qin Baizhou leaned closer to her.
Since he was accompanying her throughout this time, he had arranged for a business nanny van. The rear compartment was spacious enough that, when flattened, it could be used as a bed.
At the moment it was in couch mode, so Qin Baizhou was sitting beside her.
“It’s nothing,” Xia Siyu shook her head, yawning.
Wei Jingjing was in the front seat, and as soon as they arrived, she got out to fetch things from the trunk, leaving only Qin Baizhou and her in the car. Qin Baizhou turned to glance at her; her expression was calm, nonchalant, showing no signs of distress.
But Qin Baizhou had just heard that Bo Yan was waiting for her at home.
That meant that he was about to deliver Xia Siyu personally into Bo Yan’s arms.
Though he had seen many strange male-female pairings in the entertainment industry, he still hoped that the person he liked could be simpler. Currently, Xia Siyu obviously still rejected Bo Yan, yet they were living together.
Moreover, it was clear that Bo Yan held the dominant position in this relationship, and she couldn’t escape.
Xia Siyu wasn’t the kind of person who would sleep her way up for resources; she didn’t need to curry favor with Bo Yan for anything. But Bo Yan seemed to have a significant influence on her. With a film like “Spring Light,” which initially seemed impossible to even convene a team, he managed to lure her in and even persuaded her to take the role at a low price.
If it were for love, it would be highly possible. But Xia Siyu didn’t like him. Qin Baizhou simply couldn’t comprehend their way of interacting.
Why, he just couldn’t understand. If Xia Siyu had any unspeakable difficulties, she could tell him, right? He would do his utmost to help her.
They had known each other for seven years, he had been by her side as she grew, even if just as a friend, he would go through fire and water for her.
“If you have any unspeakable difficulties, feel free to tell me,” finally, Qin Baizhou couldn’t hold it in anymore and spoke up directly.
Xia Siyu was taken aback for a moment, then nodded: “All I’m thinking about now is improving my acting skills.”
Just for the sake of acting skills?
Indeed, on this point, Bo Yan truly had a convincing argument. Although he had won Best Actor, he wasn’t omnipotent. Every year the country heralds three Best Actors, wouldn’t the others be sufficient? Couldn’t other seniors do?
“I’ll help you find a teacher,” he said.
“Okay.” Just as Xia Siyu was about to get out of the car, Qin Baizhou suddenly grabbed her wrist.
