The Best Actor Insists On Living With Me!

Chapter 273: Married Life (5)
Just as he was about to kiss her, the door opened with a “ding”.

Their house was of the type with an elevator right into the apartment, where the elevator opens directly into their space.

Bo Yan slightly frowned, his first reaction being whether he might have heard wrong.

This apartment was bought when they got married. It could be unlocked with a key, but also with fingerprint and iris recognition.

Only he and Xia Siyu had keys; he hadn’t even given one to Song Fengzhi, nor to his own family. As for Xia Siyu, she already had a poor relationship with her father, and even worse with her half-siblings; they were practically enemies, so they surely wouldn’t have keys either.

It must be that she’d set her phone’s notification tone to sound like the elevator bell, right? Otherwise, how could the door have opened?

No sooner had this thought crossed his mind than the elevator doors opened with a “whoosh,” followed by Wei Jingjing’s voice: “Siyu, are you packed yet? — Holy shit!”

Of course, that exclamation came because she saw the scene where Bo Yan and Xia Siyu seemed about to kiss on the sofa.

Is everything moving this fast nowadays?

Bo Yan swiftly rolled off her, and Xia Siyu quickly got up as well. Both of them started explaining at the same time, “We…”

Wei Jingjing, perhaps having been through several shocks already, seemed unfazed. She even turned her back, saying, “Carry on… wait, that’s not right, Siyu you need to hurry up and get ready, you’ve got a brand event to attend.”

After that variety show, Xia Siyu’s popularity had skyrocketed.

Even though she was scolded by Bo Yan’s fans at the airport yesterday, it was Bo Yan’s fans who were in the wrong the previous day. Both principals stepped forward to say it was a slip of the hand, stating that their relationship hadn’t progressed to that stage yet. Since it was all just a misunderstanding, naturally, it didn’t count for much. On the contrary, it brought quite a bit of attention to both of them.

Moreover, after reading the comments Xia Siyu left confronting Bo Yan’s fans, many switched their support to her.

The fandom has been suffering for a long time. Who knows since when, but on Weibo, a celebrity can’t slip up on a single word, as a mistake will cause a backlash. And who knows since when, one can’t speak freely on Weibo, even if what’s said is fair and unbiased. For instance, you might give an objective review of a movie, rating an actor’s performance as a six. But in the eyes of the fans, if you don’t say their idol’s acting was perfect, you’ll have people teaming up to send hate messages.

But the fact that Xia Siyu personally confronted those fans won over many people, with a crowd cheering her on.

As her popularity rose, naturally, business partners started knocking on her door. The endorsements and business deals she had lost all came back, one after another. This time, a luxury brand had invited her to attend a fashion show. Usually, she would decline such invitations, but today marked the 180th anniversary of this luxury brand, and it was said that many social elites were invited, not just from the entertainment industry, but also business figures. Qin Baizhou had asked her to attend as well.

— However, Bo Yan hadn’t been invited for a simple reason: he endorsed a rival luxury brand.

Xia Siyu quickly got up and dashed to the bathroom at the speed of a sprinter to shower and get ready. Fortunately, she had only given the key to Wei Jingjing and had repeatedly emphasized that Wei must not tell Qin Baizhou anything about her and Bo Yan. Wei Jingjing was indeed loyal!

While Xia Siyu showered, Wei Jingjing and Bo Yan found themselves in an awkward situation in the living room.

Bo Yan asked her to “sit,” and then added, “There’s a water dispenser over there, help yourself if you’re thirsty.” Once Wei Jingjing was seated, he inquired, “What’s Qin Baizhou’s stance towards Xia Siyu?”
