Chapter 517: Chapter 516 Sweetness (4)
This place isn’t like the south, there’s very little rainfall throughout the year, and irrigation for farming is quite troublesome. There were never many people living deep in the mountains, and most of the young people have moved out. Even if they don’t go to the big cities, they generally live in the towns. Although the country is working hard on afforestation, this area has yet to benefit from it.
There really is no one here.
But Xia Siyu still felt scared.
Who would have thought that even a stroll down the street here would nearly lead to her being recognized?
Bo Yan was still so brazenly shouting that phrase, was he not afraid of dying too quickly?
Bo Yan just smiled, “Look, there’s no one.”
Xia Siyu quickly glanced around and, indeed, there was no one. But better safe than sorry, right?
“Don’t worry, I asked the homeowner before we came. He said that within several miles of where he lives, only his family remains; all the others have moved away. You can say whatever you want here. On our way here, did you see anyone?
Xia Siyu was stuck for a moment, indeed she had not.
Bo Yan’s smile slightly faded, and his gaze became tender, “I didn’t understand before. Only after I entered the entertainment industry did I comprehend many things about you. The industry is a strange circle; you fear not being popular, but also the consequences of being too popular. If you’re not popular, you have no money, no status, and you’re oppressed by others. You might even be forced to accept the unspoken rules, without any say. But if you’re too popular, even stepping out of your door is inconvenient. Celebrities appear dazzling and are recognized by everyone, and it’s precisely because of this recognition that they’re lonelier. What does it matter if others know who you are? The more they do, the more you hide yourself. Friends all over the world, but not a single confidant.
You have to perform well, you can’t get angry or frustrated, and you can’t just express any opinions, otherwise, you’ll be attacked by haters. I know you don’t care about these things, but think about it, who is born liking being cursed at? Not caring doesn’t mean you enjoy being cursed at. Celebrities face a lot of pressure too, aside from being verbally abused, you also set goals for yourself, right? And sometimes you feel powerless.
Today, with this opportunity and no one else around, say whatever you want. Shout out all the anger and wishes in your heart. No one will hear, only you and me.”
Xia Siyu wouldn’t fall for his provocation, and yelling like that would be so dumb, like acting a fool.
But over there, Bo Yan was grinning and even shouted, “Xia Siyu loves Bo Yan—”
Damn it, this was blatant fakery; Xia Siyu couldn’t stand it and immediately roared, “Bo Yan!”
Unexpectedly, her shout tangled with Bo Yan’s previous shout, the two voices entwining lingeringly, endless in their echo. The valley slowly replied, “Xia Siyu also loves Bo Yan—loves Bo Yan—Bo Yan—”
She was taken aback by the echo, then moments later, she shouted again, “Bo Yan is a big bastard—”
The echo answered back, “Bo Yan is a big bastard—bastard—”
She continued to yell, “Bo Yan, you dog of a man—”
The echo also replied, “Bo Yan, you dog of a man—dog of a man—”
Bo Yan followed her and yelled, “Xia Siyu loves a dog of a man—”
“Love your head!” Xia Siyu, enraged, kicked him and shouted loudly, “I want to be Best Actress—I want to beat Shang Feifei—I want to make my mom proud!—”
The echo was too prolonged, mingling together, the only words that could be clearly heard were the last few, “To make mom proud—proud—”
