Chapter 668: Chapter 665 Crisis (1)
What else was there, hadn’t she already given him a farewell kiss? Xia Siyu felt a bit lost.
Bo Yan let out a soft sigh, removed her mask, and gave her a firm kiss before saying, “This time we’re apart, I’ll come to find you when I have time. But we cannot make our identities public, so I won’t personally visit the set. I’ll book a room in your hotel and we’ll get in touch then.”
Xia Siyu nodded. Actually, she didn’t want to be apart from him during this passionate phase of their relationship either, but there was no helping it—it was necessary for work.
“Read more books, I’ll compile a list of some books and send it to you. You don’t need to study them deeply, but it’s always good to know a bit.”
Xia Siyu hadn’t expected that, though previously she was a pure underachiever, now that she wanted to become an actor, she had to pick up books again.
But learning some Classical Chinese could be beneficial, and she wanted to take on historical dramas anyway. Her husband was a college professor with a Ph.D., so teaching her, who was half-baked in her knowledge, would be no problem at all, and she nodded.
“Also, acting roles are fine, but don’t be involved in love scandals with other men, not even for promotional buzz. And don’t get too close to other men.” He had realized that not all of Xia Siyu’s rumors were necessarily false. Or rather, they might be false on her side, but not necessarily on the male actors’ side.
Take the two movies and one variety show they collaborated on, for instance. “Storm” aside, as it lacked a second male lead and only featured two women and one man, the variety show introduced Wang Zisu and the second and third male leads in “Spring Light” also showed her a lot of favor.
What if the second and third male leads had no girlfriends or wives? Would they make a move on her?
In short, he wanted to nip in the bud all the buzzing, flirtatious men potentially throwing themselves at her!
Xia Siyu also had something to say about that, “Look who’s talking! Aren’t you the same? You charm someone new with every film you shoot. You’re going to play a romance this time, right? If you dare harbor any bad intentions, do you believe I’ll castrate you?”
Bo Yan found that amusing, “If you castrate me, you’ll have to live a widow’s life.”
“Pfft, whoever wants to live like that can go ahead. Just remember, if you dare put a green hat on me, even just one, I’ll find ten men! I’ll turn your head into a field of green grass!”
Xia Siyu meant what she said; she was not one to be timid or afraid. If he made the first move, she’d double down. If they divorced, she’d find herself some young hunks just to spite him!
Far from being angry, Bo Yan was actually delighted. Xia Siyu talking this way meant she really cared about him.
If she didn’t care, it would have been like before; as they were friends with benefits, they would get together if it suited them and part ways if it didn’t. If he took interest in someone else, they would simply break up peacefully without any fierce resistance.
He was truly happy and kissed her on the face, “Then it’s settled.”
Xia Siyu was stunned for a moment. Was this guy still half-asleep? She had just said she would make him a cuckold, and he was cheerful about it?
“Work might be hard, but don’t neglect yourself. Although being in shape is important, your health is also vital. Eat when you should eat, drink when you should drink, but avoid alcohol. You can’t hold your liquor well, and when you’re away from home, you need to know how to protect yourself.”
Xia Siyu retorted, “You’re a boy, and you need to know how to protect yourself when you’re away from home too.”
“Alright, we’ll both protect ourselves.”
As they were speaking, Wei Jingjing came to knock on the door again. Xia Siyu picked up her small luggage to leave, but Bo Yan called out to her again, “Siyu.”
Xia Siyu turned around.
Bo Yan smiled and said, “I love you.”
