Xia Siyu and Bo Yan appeared one after another without causing any controversy. After they returned to the private room, they also sat far apart.
Bo Yan was discussing business on this side, continuously talking low with Song Fengzhi. Many people noticed he had been out for quite a while but assumed he had just stepped out to talk about work. After all, the room was noisy and the sound was a bit loud.
Not long after, Wang Ju summoned everyone to head back.
Xia Siyu was the first to stand up. When she rose, she didn’t say anything to everyone, just nodded toward Wang Ju and turned to walk out directly.
When she reached the door, she faintly heard Shang Feifei’s words from behind, “Wow, Bo Yan, why is your face so swollen? Has that slap not faded
Bo Yan didn’t respond, and she didn’t pay attention, descending the stairs briskly in her high heels as if they were wheels of fire.
The leisure center was in the suburbs, and all the cars were parked outside in the parking lot. When Bo Yan and the others came out, it was raining outside.
It was summer now, and the rain came quickly. They had spent quite a bit of time eating and singing when they arrived, and the weather was very clear at the time; no one had brought an umbrella.
The entrance of the leisure center was a little distant from the main gate, and there were pillars blocking the way, so cars couldn’t drive up to the entrance.
The rainfall was quite heavy. The staff ran out to get the cars, but walking from the door to the cars would definitely result in getting wet.
Wang Ju managed to get a hold of four umbrellas. They were just a few days away from wrapping up the shoot, and the filming schedule was rather tight, so he wanted to go back early to prepare. He took one for himself, while the assistant director and the executive director shared another.
That left two umbrellas for the three main actors.
Shang Feifei, being close by, naturally took one and even joked, “Sorry, I have a live stream soon, and I must go online. Excuse me, I need to get going.”
Her reason was valid and her wording polite, so when she spoke up, no one felt it was inappropriate.
That left only one umbrella.
Now it came down to Bo Yan and Xia Siyu.
The umbrella was in the middle, with people looking back and forth between
Bo Yan and Xia Siyu, who stood alone on the side watching the rain.
Bo Yan didn’t speak either, just lifted his eyes to look at her.
This was probably the first time on set, aside from acting, that he so openly looked at her outside of the play.
Xia Siyu had a straightforward personality and was a whimsical person. Usually on set, although she also had the nickname “Drama Tyrant,” if no one played with her, she could entertain herself and would never let the atmosphere go dull.
But today, she might have been truly angry, unwilling to give him even a glance, too lazy to speak any pleasantries.
…Back then as well, she was always a person full of passion, but when occasionally struck down by setbacks, getting truly angry, she would completely shut herself off to the side, listening to no one. At the time, he hadn’t understood, and on top of that, her temper flared up quickly but also faded faster, and the next day she would be full of energy again.
Perhaps, it was precisely these small emotional buildups that led to their breakup.
The umbrella was passed in front of Bo Yan, and after another glance at Xia Siyu, who hadn’t even swept her eyes this way as if completely unwilling to interact with him, he lowered his head and took the umbrella.
With the distribution completed, everyone gradually prepared to leave.
Wang Ju along with the assistant director and executive director left first, followed by Shang Feifei with an assistant holding the umbrella; she walked ahead while also looking back.
The rain continued to fall, and at the leisure center’s gate, there was still a group of people. Bo Yan, holding the umbrella and looking down, cast a detached glance around, then suddenly strode forward, approaching Xia Siyu..
