Chapter 581: Chapter 580: Distance (6)
Her suspicion was confirmed within two seconds. Looking down, although there was no suitcase, there was a pair of men’s leather shoes by the door—Bo Yan’s shoes.
Then, footsteps quickly approached from the room, followed by Bo Yan’s tall figure. He must’ve just taken a shower, droplets of water still clinging to his hair, already dressed in pajamas. His eyes sparkled upon seeing her. He was taking big strides at first, but after two steps, he quickened his pace even more, and in an instant, he was by her side, scooping her into his arms.
Xia Siyu was a bit surprised, and when she was held by him, she was still stunned, “Why are you back?”
She would leave early the day after tomorrow, which meant she could only stay in Yancheng for one day. She thought for a moment and asked, “Do you have an emergency?”
“Yes,” Bo Yan nodded, “I missed you.”
Missing her was the most significant matter.
Xia Siyu was stunned again.
These days, both Xia Siyu and Bo Yan had been incredibly busy. However, Bo Yan’s busyness was to make time to come here, desperately squeezing the originally scheduled work into two days less than planned so that he could fly over earlier.
Moreover, he only mentioned his visit to Song Fengzhi, took a leave of absence from Director Sun, and came alone. He didn’t bring any luggage and didn’t inform anyone.
Both he and Xia Siyu had jobs, and he didn’t want his personal affairs to affect their work. But he missed Xia Siyu very much. So the best approach was to clear his tasks early by cramming them in, and only after he was done with his work, would he have the confidence and time to come and see her.
Xia Siyu then said, “Actually, you didn’t have to. After all, shooting starts the day after tomorrow, and I’m definitely going back.”
“It’s different. You’re coming back the day after tomorrow, but that’s around noon. From now on, that’s thirty-six hours when we can’t see each other,” Bo Yan counted very precisely, “Besides, after you arrive, we’ll have to film, and there won’t be much time to be alone. Even if we are together, we will have to do it behind others’ backs since it’s not good to be seen when there are too many prying eyes.”
There was no helping it. Being celebrities meant sacrificing some privacy. If they wanted to maintain a low-profile life, they had to meet like underground party operatives.
Originally, Xia Siyu didn’t feel it, but after a series of recent events, she realized that although Bo Yan was sometimes annoying, he was the most comfortable to be with. She didn’t need to hide any trace of her negative emotions or dissatisfaction. To fight if she wanted, to scold if she wanted; they understood each other at their darkest times, down to the core.
Even if they weren’t lovers but just friends, they would still have a pleasant relationship.
However, Bo Yan was indeed annoying. After just a brief embrace, Xia Siyu could already feel his breathing getting a bit hurried.
She had felt a touch of emotion just a moment ago, but seeing his current mood, all her feelings dissipated in an instant. She rolled her eyes in speechless resignation, “I’m a bit tired today and need to get up early tomorrow.”
Bo Yan came back indeed to be with her. There are many forms of togetherness, and intimacy is one of them.
Nonsense, thinking about it carefully, it had been more than twenty days since her last period, and he had been craving her badly. But he had been worn out from traveling all day, heading straight to the airport after finishing his work in the afternoon. From four in the afternoon until just recently, he had been on the road, arriving home only less than a half-hour before Xia Siyu.
Holding her, he nuzzled his head into the crook of her shoulder, “Okay, then let’s rest tonight. Maybe we can take a bath together or something.”
