She didn’t know if it was because she was angry, or because he was too good at shifting blame, or because of the shame and indignation of being taken advantage of.
Or because of some other reason…
After a while, Xia Siyu composed herself and, through gritted teeth, said, remember, I’m supposed to keep a radius of two meters away from you. Mr.
Bo, please keep your distance from me in the future!”
Once she finished speaking, and had just taken a few steps away clattering in her high heels, she thought about it and, still feeling angry, turned back and stomped towards him, kicking his shin hard.
The kick was forceful; Bo Yan was caught off guard and immediately arched his back in pain.
Only then did Xia Siyu feel relieved, she even turned her head and snarled with a bared-teeth “ah woo,” as if to say: don’t mess with me, or I’ll bite!
Then, with a haughty turn of her head and the click of her high heels, she walked away with her hips swaying and head held high.
After all, I must not let myself be taken advantage of!
Bo Yan was right behind her, watching her storm off without immediately following.
He turned his head to look at the mirror next to the sink. Xia Siyu’s slap had landed exactly on the previous spot; she had used all her strength, and the overlapping handprints were now very swollen.
But he didn’t pay much attention to his own face; instead, he looked at his lips.
Xia Siyu rarely wore heavy makeup outside her acting work. Her everyday makeup was always fresh and natural, and her lips wouldn’t be painted with bright colors but just a layer of light lip gloss. When their lips touched, he tasted a bit—it was the flavor of watermelon peach.
When he and Xia Siyu had kissed just now, he had started with careful restraint, but towards the end, he couldn’t help stirring up a storm inside. He even couldn’t stop thinking, if those three troublemakers hadn’t been outside, would he have given in to his wild instincts and done something terrible to her…
He had come after her to ask why Xia Siyu had suddenly disappeared without a word seven years ago, and then immediately broken up with him upon her return.
And then, just a few months later, she made her movie debut, hitting it big with her very first film and thereafter enjoying a fantastic career in the spotlight.
He, on the other hand, followed the conventional path of university study, completing his Ph.D. and staying on as a faculty member, until he was discovered by a star scout.
Later, they got married.
Over the years, they had been living separately. She thrived in the entertainment industry, from being constantly shaded to the point of turning purple, to gaining explosive popularity on social mecna Witnout naxnng to pay for it—each event was stunning. She didn’t care, nor did she bother to pay attention to the gossip, living a life of pomp and glory up to the present.
He, meanwhile, focused on acting in films, earned accolades one after another, and finally, three years after his debut, became a top-tier idol with both popularity and acting prowess, receiving endless praise.
Along the way, he might not have always been able to act as he wished. But every step was firm and steady. Even in the unfamiliar world of show business, he managed to achieve great success. Success to the point where his family, who weren’t very supportive at first, now took great pride in him.
But now.
At this moment, looking at his own reflection in the mirror, he felt a bit lost for the first time.
Thinking of the tears in Xia Siyu’s eyes that afternoon and her suddenly reddened eyes just now. He realized that perhaps she was still hiding something. Despite Xia Siyu’s typically carefree demeanor, where she wore her emotions on her sleeve, she never shared her deep-seated troubles with anyone else.
If she refused to talk, then he would have to—find out for himself!
And then….
