The Best Actor Insists On Living With Me! - Chapter 508

Chapter 508: Chapter 507: Observation (1)
 

But if he did that, what difference would there be between him and Qin Baizhou? Perhaps he would even be worse than Qin Baizhou, wouldn’t he?

Qin Baizhou wanted to control her life, believing that he knew what was best for her, but such actions actually limited her development and hindered her transformation.

If he got her pregnant, it was possible that Xia Siyu might compromise for the sake of the child. But a pregnant female artist meant an interruption to her work, and she would be compelled to spend one or two years on pregnancy and childbirth. Even if she returned to the set immediately after giving birth, there was no guarantee the audience would accept her. Moreover, for female artists, especially those in a hidden marriage, having a child was almost equivalent to destroying their career. If she ever hoped to regain her past glory, it would be as difficult as reaching the heavens.

Of course, there were female artists who had come back after pregnancy and childbirth only to become hugely successful. But that required even more effort than before their comeback, as well as a great deal of luck. Furthermore, those women who succeeded post-comeback were the ones with a certain degree of accumulation and acting skills. This was not to say that Xia Siyu lacked acting skills, but she didn’t need to waste this precious prime time.

If a child were to come, it must be the crystallization of their parents’ love, arriving in this world only when both he and she were fully prepared. If he understood all this, why would he resort to such despicable acts just to keep her around?

Moreover, times had changed from the past, even if raw rice were cooked into cooked rice, or even cooked into claypot rice, those who were going to divorce would still divorce, and those who were going to run away would still do so. Xia Siyu was so resolute that she might just angrily ask for a divorce and sever all ties as soon as she discovered a pregnancy, making it impossible to keep the child.

Bo Yan put down Xiaoyu’s umbrella, and he didn’t pick it up again. But likewise, he didn’t continue with what he was doing and instead chose to embrace her.

The person in his arms was still warm, soft. Even if her heart had turned to solid ice, he was determined to melt the ice surrounding her heart.

Rather than possessing her body, he wanted to be closer to her heart, progressing together shoulder to shoulder, working hard as a pair.

He believed that as long as they persevered and made an effort, the day would come eventually.

The sleeping Xia Siyu was blissfully unaware of these calculations. When she woke up, the host family’s grandparents had already gone to the fields, and the children had gone to school.

Bo Yan came out of her room, and everyone else acted as if it was all normal, even Wei Jingjing didn’t show any sign of surprise, and she wasn’t clutching her chest either.

But having been busy all day yesterday, Xia Siyu felt a bit lost today. Surely they wouldn’t be going to fetch water again, or would they be collecting firewood, or perhaps going to the stone mill? Or would she follow the grandparents into the fields to farm?

She turned to look at Bo Yan, who was full of confidence, “Follow me.”

Xia Siyu nodded and followed Bo Yan out. This time, Bo Yan had her wear a mask, a sports outfit, and a hat. They drove for an hour to the town, where they found a restaurant in the busiest area of the town center. On the second floor with a view of the street, they ordered a table full of dishes.

Could it be that he came here just to eat?

But Bo Yan didn’t touch anything on the table. He just looked out of the window with seemingly nothing to do, as if he was waiting for someone.

Xia Siyu couldn’t be bothered to ask him. She hadn’t had breakfast anyway, and considered it a nice change of scenery. Being in town, there wasn’t much need for formalities. Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, she took off her mask and ate her share, quickly cleaning up her side of the table. When she looked up, Bo Yan’s dishes were still untouched.

Now Xia Siyu felt a bit curious, “Are you waiting for someone?”
