The Best Actor Insists On Living With Me! - Chapter 512

Chapter 512: Chapter 511: Observation (5)
 

“Observing again?” Xia Siyu nodded.

“No, I just want to go shopping with you.”

Xia Siyu turned to leave, but Bo Yan grabbed her hand again, “I was just kidding, since we’re here, of course observation is part of it. Shopping is just incidental.”

Xia Siyu gave him a look, thinking there wasn’t much else to do if she went back. Other than watching TV or browsing the internet on her phone, there were no other forms of entertainment.

Although she had agreed in her heart earlier, she still said proudly, “Since you’ve so sincerely pleaded, I suppose I’ll do you the favor and go shopping with you.”

Bo Yan smiled faintly, this girl, despite her reluctant words and her feigned indifference, her eyes were actually shining with excitement.

The town was not like the county seat, with only a few main roads crisscrossing it. From one end of the street to the other, it could take less than an hour to cover the whole place. The town was tiny compared to Yancheng.

But Xia Siyu was shopping with great enthusiasm.

As a child in Italy, and during her first two years in China when she was in her last two years of high school, she was busy with revisions and had no time for fun. It was only in university that she had the chance to wander around, but that lasted for only a year, after which she joined the entertainment industry.

After she became famous, everyone on the street recognized her. Although it was fame, and an honor, from another perspective, it was also a burden.

She could not lead a normal life. Even going downstairs for breakfast was a luxury. If she occasionally went shopping, she had to fully prepare and inform the company to avoid any problems.

Yancheng was bustling, but correspondingly, with so many young people watching movies and the news, there were quite a few who could recognize her. In the Northwest, where they stayed, the homeowner might know she was an actress, but could not name her.

After all, she acted only in movies, never in TV dramas. The elderly rarely watch movies and don’t look at fashion magazines; they might only see her in advertisements, which didn’t leave a strong impression.

Thanks to the pandemic, Bo Yan and she could walk around wearing masks without drawing attention.

Aside from work, celebrities could only stay at home, occasionally meeting up with friends. At home, they could only play video games or surf the internet, which was utterly boring. So when Bo Yan suggested going shopping, even though she hesitated a bit, she decided to go with pleasure.

Xia Siyu looked around like someone who’d never seen the world before. Today was market day, and there were many stalls. Previously, from above, she had only seen a sea of heads. It was only when she got down amongst the haggling and hustle that she felt the liveliness that seemed like real life.

But she and Bo Yan were holding hands. After a few steps, Xia Siyu felt something was off and wanted to pull her hand away.

Because the vendors occupied the streets and there was no urban management in the small town, the driving lane was halved. Xia Siyu let go of Bo Yan’s hand, and he gave her a glance but said nothing. Soon, an electric bike approached from behind.

Bo Yan immediately pulled her hand, forcefully dragging her over, “There are a lot of vehicles here.”

Xia Siyu didn’t have time to react before she saw the electric bike that had indeed brushed past them. She looked at Bo Yan, who smiled, and then she lowered her head to look at their clasped hands, intending to let go. Just then, a mother leading a child came towards them. The child wasn’t watching and lightly bumped into her; Bo Yan tightened his grip on her hand and said softly, “Be careful.”

Xia Siyu blinked her eyes. As he held onto her hand, she didn’t say another word.
