“No,” she flatly denied.
Actually, what she said wasn’t wrong; she and Bo Yan could hardly be considered in love, even their marriage was questionable.
Qin Baizhou scrutinized her carefully, his smile gentle, “Nowadays, public taste has diversified, and the golden age for female artists isn’t as fixed at thirty as it used to be. In fact, for many female artists, thirty to forty years old may be their golden years. However, once many female artists pass thirty without a successful transition, remaining mired in their past, their acting careers might be ruined. You are very talented and have a demand for acting. While it’s not wrong for female artists to pursue love and marriage, my advice to you is to try to go as far as you can. It would be best to calm down, refine your skills, produce a few good works, and aim for awards. That way, even if one day you wish to return to the entertainment industry after marriage and having children, people will still take you seriously.”

Xia Siyu nodded. The old her didn’t have such a strong sense of crisis, but now, nearing twenty- seven, she could only circle around roles in young girl movies. Meanwhile, Shang Feifei had won a Best Actress award and flaunted it in front of her.
Not to mention Bo Yan, who debuted later than her but won awards earlier and was now one of the hottest new stars in the entertainment industry.
Even without considering these external factors, she too had thought about wanting to make movies that would be cherished for a century, remembered by movie fans instead of being entangled in messy scandals.
—At least, she wouldn’t tarnish her mother’s reputation.
“l know, so I want to act. I want to play good roles,” she said sincerely.
“As long as you trust me, I will do my utmost to help you become a big star, no, a megastar. I believe in your potential, and I believe in your value. Trust me, and believe in yourself,” Qin Baizhou was clearly moved, his smile becoming much gentler.
Xia Siyu nodded and yawned, “Is there anything else? I want to get some rest early today, as I have to fly abroad tomorrow, followed by that headache-inducing reality show.”
“Of course, get some good rest,” Qin Baizhou stood up, then turned back after a moment’s thought, “I’ll find you a better house sooner, after all, staying in someone else’s place for too long isn’t quite convenient.”
Xia Siyu didn’t refuse, especially after considering Bo Yan’s odd behavior.
Even if Bo Yan wasn’t interested in her now, they were still a man and a woman who had been intimate, and nominally husband and wife; living together was indeed awkward.
What if he got carried away and did “that” to her when she wasn’t paying attention?
What if she drank too much and did “that” to him while he was asleep?
As adults, doing “that” wasn’t a big deal, they could just consider it an exercise to lose weight. But the interpersonal relationship after the “exercise” was what made things truly awkward. Currently, they clearly weren’t lovers, nor did they plan to be a couple in earnest.
She was unwilling to continue living with him as if nothing had happened, or to evolve into friends with benefits.
Seeing her nod, Qin Baizhou truly relaxed this time, smiling as he said, “Rest well. Although I can’t accompany you on the reality show, if you need anything, just call, and I’ll fly to your side immediately.”
Xia Siyu nodded again and after some thought, she asked, “Do you know who else is participating in the show?”
