Chapter 444: Chapter 443 Initiative (4)
“Sorry, my studio contacted you earlier, to deliver a birthday fan meeting gift. Also, there’s a favor I need to ask you, a few of my friends pooled money together to buy billboard space for me in Yancheng’s landmark building complex. If the media or anyone else asks, I’m going to say it was you who bought it. I guarantee those people won’t bother you.”
By this time, Bo Yan had drunk quite a bit, and their business was done. Tomorrow he would part ways with this group to go shoot a film in the Northwest.
On the way back, his route coincided with Yu Fenfei’s, walking and listening to the bustle on the phone, he pulled it out to find it was a long string of messages from Xia Siyu.
A smile tugged at Bo Yan’s lips involuntarily. It was really rare to see Xia Siyu speaking so humbly and pleadingly. He wondered when she would plead like that to his true self?
He didn’t reply as bluntly as he had initially intended. He had wanted to say, “If I agree, what will you offer me in return?” But thinking it over, he deleted that and simply said, “Okay.”
Sending that word back, Xia Siyu really felt somewhat guilty towards him. After thinking it over, she still said, “Thank you for your support. Whenever you come to Yancheng, I’ll treat you to a meal.”

Bo Yan, reading the message, couldn’t help smiling, “No need. I just simply like you, that’s all.”
He dared not say “like” when he was himself, and even if he did, given Xia Siyu’s personality of only liking to be friends with benefits with him, she’d probably laugh at him.
Now, under the guise of an online persona, he found he could say it smoothly.
Yu Fenfei, seeing him smiling at his phone, asked, “What’s up, did your girlfriend message you?”
It was common knowledge in the industry that Bo Yan didn’t have a girlfriend. But his smile just then was too obvious—it was the foolish grin of a man in love. It was also because Yu Fenfei had a good relationship with Bo Yan that he dared to ask so directly.
Bo Yan shook his head: “No.”
How could Xia Siyu be his girlfriend? She was clearly his wife!
Before they stepped into the elevator, he smiled and said, “It’s just that, I feel this movie is going to be a success. Because we’ve chosen great actors.”
Yu Fenfei also smiled, “Is that so? It’s good to be confident.”
He thought Bo Yan was referring to himself, the actor playing the male lead.
Bo Yan didn’t correct him, and having returned to his room, asked Song Fengzhi, who was helping him pack, “What time is our flight tomorrow?”
Song Fengzhi replied, “After we’re done with the closing meeting at ten in the morning, we can leave. So we have a flight at two in the afternoon, and we’ll arrive at Xicheng around five. We’ll spend a night there, and early the next day, we’ll drive to the location for the shoot. It’ll probably take about four or five hours on the road.”
Bo Yan looked down, checking the flight details, “Change that ticket for me.”
Song Fengzhi paused, then nodded his head, “I got it, I’ll prepare it right away.”

Meanwhile, in Yancheng.
After her chat with “Shengxia Yanyu,” Xia Siyu also breathed a sigh of relief.
Qin Baizhou immediately apologized as well, “Sorry, I’ve probably been under a lot of work stress lately, not thinking things through thoroughly. Facing the fans, we indeed can’t act all high and mighty. They are like a different kind of parents to us in terms of food and clothing. From now on, I’ll make sure those managing the fan club are more careful.”
Xia Siyu shook her head, “There’s no need for that.”
