Best Actor Wants To Stay With Me

Chapter 34: Relationship (4)

When she heard Wei Jingjing’s words, Xia Siyu’s fury immediately died down as if the words had poured a bucket of ice water on it.

Instead, a hint of pity, sadness, and heaviness flashed across her eyes.

She lowered her head and turned it toward the window as if she no longer wanted to talk. When she turned her head back again, she had regained her calmness. “Then let it be. Anyway, I can’t find a suitable place for the time being, so I’ll live here. It’s impossible for anything to happen between me and him. We’ll also… let each other go in the future. You don’t have to worry. As for our reputation, I believe that he’s more concerned about reputation than I. After all, as you said, he would be the one losing out if I got pictured with him.”

Wei Jingjing and Xiao Tang exchanged glances and stopped talking. Wei Jingjing had come here to help Xia Siyu move, and since she had already spoken, she did not hesitate anymore.

For the following two days, Wei Jingjing and Xiao Tang helped Xia Siyu move her things from her original apartment to the one in the Qing Cheng Apartment Complex. Xia Siyu had officially settled in her new home. Since Bo Yan had gone overseas for these two days, he was not there either, making it convenient for her to move in.

Xia Siyu also had to go out for her scheduled work. She had to set up her apartment while working. For those two days, she was as busy as a spinning top, so she forgot about the ‘bastard’ soon enough.

Until the third day.

Xia Siyu’s manager, Qin Baizhou, was set to return today. They had agreed to meet at night to discuss work. However, Zhou Weiwei’s call disrupted her schedule. “Siyu, why didn’t I see you?”

At this moment, Xia Siyu was wearing her slippers and drinking soda. She was puzzled by the question. “What happened?”

“It’s the auditions for Thunderstorm! Didn’t your manager sign you up for it? It’s for the position of the main female lead, and it suits you very well as if it had been created for you. My manager also signed me up for it, probably just to make up for the numbers.”

Xia Siyu could hear that it was quite noisy on Zhou Weiwei’s end, and the background voice was calling out numbers. Obviously, Zhou Weiwei was at the audition venue. “Plus, the main male lead is Bo Yan. He’s here to help choose the first and the second female lead. If you come, you’ll definitely make it!”

Xia Siyu remembered Shang Feier’s previous call. She lifted her soda and sipped it. “Oh. Yes, that happened.”

“What do you mean ‘that happened.’ What a great opportunity. Wang Ju! He’s Director Wang Ju! If you manage to access his social network, you won’t have to worry about having resources in the entertainment industry in Yan City. Even if you argued with Bo Yan, he’s your husband after all. You don’t have to be angry at him for so long, right?”

Xia Siyu did not answer. The background voice called Zhou Weiwei’s number, and Zhou Weiwei hurriedly said, “Hurry up. There’s still another hour left for the main female lead’s audition. Come over and submit your details to them. With Bo Yan here, he won’t veto you. If you come any later, you won’t make it in time.”

Xia Siyu remained unbothered. She hung up the call and took a sip of her soda. When she turned back, her eyes coincidentally landed on the script that Bo Yan had placed on the table.

Since she had a lot of time and she was bored, she picked up the script and started reading it.

As she flipped through the first few pages, she was still unbothered. However, after she read through the next few pages, she suddenly stood up, looked at the clock, then at the time and venue marked out in the script.

Her pretty eyebrows knitted as if she were hesitating.

At the audition venue.

Wang Ju sat in the middle. On one side of him were the filmmakers and the casting director, and on the other was Bo Yan. After a few hours of auditions, all of them were slightly exhausted.

Fortunately for them, they had to audition only one more actress for the role of the main female lead.
