Chapter 515: Chapter 514 Sweetness (2)
Xia Siyu and Bo Yan saw an adult approaching, so they quickly donned masks to cover their faces, fearing they would be recognized.
In the end, the vendor wrapped the sugar figures in a bag, filling it with a whole bagful of them. He even used the remaining bit of the base material to make Xia Siyu a small sun: “Take it, it’s my gift to you.”
This was right up her alley; the sugar figures were too pretty to eat. Now having a small sun, she could hold it and slowly nibble on it.
No sooner had she taken off her mask to eat than a parent with a child glanced at her face by chance and was shocked: “Are you Xia Siyu?”
Xia Siyu was startled and quickly put her mask back on, deliberately altering her voice: “No, no, I’m not.”
Although she and Bo Yan were dressed plainly, after all as entertainers, they were thin and had a good aura. Being recognized herself was no big deal; the main concern was with Bo Yan.
She was currently with Bo Yan, and they had just been locked in an embrace, kissing.
If this got out, it wouldn’t even take until tonight, immediately, right away, it would become a viral hit on the entire internet!
Never mind whether she could smoothly return to her filming, the whole of China would know about her and Bo Yan.
She didn’t care about the other rumors because they weren’t true. But this was a bona fide scandal, and what’s more, it involved a marriage!
She didn’t want the news of her marriage to Bo Yan to affect her work, nor did she want to be tied to Bo Yan for life!
Bo Yan noticed the man who recognized her was in his thirties, holding a child’s hand and carrying a backpack. He probably wasn’t a fan of Xia Siyu; it was just that he had seen and recognized her when she had just shown her face.
He quickly lowered his voice as well and said with a smile, “Many people say my wife looks like Xia Siyu, I guess I’m lucky to have such a beautiful wife.”
He even used the local dialect.
Bo Yan had been studying up on a lot of material lately and learned the local dialect. He never imagined that he wouldn’t be using it in a movie, but instead, here in this situation.
The man was taken aback. Xia Siyu’s bare face wasn’t much different from when she wore makeup; she and Bo Yan weren’t made up today either, both in sportswear, with her hair tied up in a ponytail just coming out. But no matter how little the difference, there still was one.
Not being a fan, he wasn’t so sure, and hearing Bo Yan speak in the local dialect, he didn’t recognize him either.
After all, one may think, what kind of person is Xia Siyu, and why would she appear in their small town? Even if she did, why would she be without assistants and bodyguards, and moreover, out with a man?
Seeing his confusion, Bo Yan took Xia Siyu by the arm and quickly walked away. By the time they fetched their car and drove back, they ran into that man again, who seemed to have checked Weibo and was still saying, “Damn, Xia Siyu is recently in the Northwest, could it really have been her just now?”
What he didn’t know was that Xia Siyu was sitting in the car next to him, behind windows tinted with reflective film. She could see everything outside clearly, but people outside couldn’t see her.
It wasn’t until they had left the city and could no longer see the scene behind them that Xia Siyu breathed a sigh of relief.
Bo Yan was driving. He actually knew, Xia Siyu didn’t want to be recognized, first, because it was troublesome, and second, because he was with her. It was unavoidable; when you become an entertainer, enjoy the spotlight and the high salary that comes with it, sometimes you have to make sacrifices.
The good mood the two had set out with for the day dissipated amidst the tension, leaving a bit of a low-pressure atmosphere in the car, until Bo Yan parked the car.
