Bo Yan’s footsteps halted.

He actually knew that Xia Siyu!s plea, “Don’t leave,” wasn’t meant for him. She was clearly asleep, and she only let down her guard around him when she was either fast asleep or completely drunk.

Yet, knowing the words Xia Siyu murmured weren’t meant for him, he still paused, moved by the trace of vulnerability in her voice.

Especially since he wanted to know who the subject of her sentence was. Who didn’t she want to leave, a man or a woman? If it was a man, was he a relative or her lover?

Bo Yan was aware that the show’s crew probably wanted to stir up some drama from the beginning, which was why they intentionally arranged for male and female guests to live together. If the lot had been drawn on the spot, he and another male guest certainly wouldn’t have the gall to sleep in the women’s bedroom. It just so happened that he arrived early, and in the middle of the night no less, so the crew felt uncomfortable waking the others. Moreover, perhaps for every minute he lingered here, there were a dozen people watching him, and it wouldn’t even take half an hour before a press release would fly across China’s social media.

But he still wanted to ask clearly—who she didn’t want to leave.

Bo Yan crouched down, took a deep breath, and in the gentlest voice he asked,

“Who don’t you want to leave? Who is it?”

People often don’t respond coherently in their sleep, and most of the time, nothing follows a muttered dream phrase.

Bo Yan waited for a long while, listening to the noises outside as he did so. Although the crew members didn’t dare barge in directly, they were indeed worried—what if these two really stirred up trouble? Would their show still be able to air?

And damn it, the show was being broadcast live.

Finding a way to edit this segment out wouldn’t be easy.

Ten seconds, twenty seconds, thirty seconds, a minute passed. Bo Yan stood up. No matter how curious he was, he wouldn’t stay and ruin her reputation. Even though they were husband and wife, theirs was a secret marriage, and they had their own reasons for keeping their work and relationship private.

However, just as he was about to open the door to leave, he heard Xia Siyu murmur from behind, “Don’t go… Mom… ‘

Bo Yan didn’t know whether to feel sad or happy, relieved or more pitying. But he quickly opened the door and then hurried to close it again. Facing the crew outside, he reprimanded sternly, “You’ve gone too far.”

Those five words, even without much anger behind them, chilled the spine of everyone from the crew. From what they could tell, it seemed nothing had happened.

Nothing might have occurred, but the indignation of Bo Yan and Xia Siyu… That was something they couldn’t bear the brunt of.

“Sorry, it won’t happen again,” the show’s executive director quickly bowed his head.

“Arrange your own explanation to the head of the network,” Bo Yan said, dismissing them, and he went downstairs and lay down on a sofa on the first floor with a thin blanket. Such a grave error could indeed lead to a major scandal that might crush the crew and even the entire platform.

The internal affairs of the show’s crew were their own problem to handle, and he wouldn’t interfere for now. But if they didn’t handle it well, he wouldn’t let it go.

Xia Siyu and the others resting upstairs were completely unaware of what had happened. But a while later, Xia Siyu groggily went to the bathroom. Feeling a bit thirsty, she went downstairs to get some water. Her bleary eyes met Bo Yan’s as she descended the stairs..
