Xia Siyu stood in the corner, watching the raindrops on the eaves. Bo Yan arrived, but she pretended not to see.
Then he just stood in front of her.
When Bo Yan set off, the remaining people on the crew, including Shang Feifei who had left first but looked back, all noticed. Everyone’s gaze fell on the two of them.
Xia Siyu noticed as well, but she couldn’t bother to care. If she were not already in a corner, she would certainly want to move another two meters away from Bo Yan.
The car of Song Fengzhi had also pulled up to the front gate, and he was still calling out, “Bo, get in the car. There’s an email that must be sent out on time.”
Bo Yan gave a grunt of acknowledgment, his brow deeply furrowed, and then
—he thrust the umbrella into Xia Siyu’s hand, “You are a woman.”
Xia Siyu was about to refuse when he turned his head, with no cover, and walked directly into the pouring rain.
The people on the scene were shocked, and Xia Siyu also lifted her head, watching his back straightening, the rain pounding down on him, as he walked unhurriedly to the car like a leisurely stroll, pulling open the door.
Wei Jingjing quickly tried to smooth things over, “Siyu, you forgot that you have to rush to finalize your passport for your reality show, tomorrow is the last deadline. You can’t be careless.’
The umbrella had been handed to her, so it would be silly not to use it. Besides, who else could she give it to? Giving it to anyone else would seem deliberate.
So naturally she nodded without any sense of guilt, lifted her face, and walked out with pride, slipping into the nanny van.
The return trip was smooth, and they quickly arrived at the hotel. It was fortunate that their filming was now in the studio and didn’t require location shooting, which also did not affect the schedule. Once at the hotel, Xia Siyu asked Wei Jingjing to return the umbrella to Wang Ju and kept to her room without leaving, avoiding any contact with Bo Yan.
The next day’s shooting was her solo scene. When she arrived on the set, she heard that Bo Yan seemed to have caught a slight cold after going back, which affected his line delivery, but fortunately, there weren’t many lines and the slight nasally tone wasn’t a big issue.
After that day, she and Bo Yan basically had no more scenes together, and until the wrap-up, the two didn’t interact. Even if they occasionally bumped into each other on set, both pretended as if they hadn’t.
Even Bo Yan wrapped up his scenes a day early and left the crew ahead of time. Due to a tight schedule, he didn’t even have the chance to invite everyone for a meal, leaving that very night.
However, because of their mutual avoidance and Xia Siyu’s continued indifferent and aloof attitude, Bo Yan’s act of giving her the umbrella was easily interpreted as a “gentlemanly gesture” and didn’t cause any misunderstanding regarding their relationship. Even those three women on
set known for gossiping didn’t make any more fuss.
After the wrap party, everyone got into their respective cars, all set to leave.
Xia Siyu leaned back in the seat, gearing up to dive into a reality show the next day. And one advantage of reality shows over TV or movies is that they are broadcast shortly after filming, not held up for years due to approval issues like some films and TV shows can be.
But reality shows are also a major pitfall for celebrities, where any act, even a subconscious or harmless one, can be chewed over and over by the audience.
And the scariest part might be that it isn’t even something done unconsciously, but the effect after editing.
They chatted, completely unaware that a car was following them.
Moreover, it wasn’t Bo Yan’s Maybach..
