The Best Actor Insists On Living With Me!-Chapter 1750 - 1742: Valentine’s Day (5)

Who is Xia Siyu? I never swallow my anger. Anyone who wrongs me, I will confront them directly! This isn’t the first time she’s argued with haters. Her personality is not one to take things lying down. Some difficulties are hers alone to bear, and she’ll lick her wounds in a corner where no one can see. But if someone provokes her then, she will immediately compose herself and never let anyone take advantage of her!

These fans should be thankful she doesn’t like discussing her private matters in public. Just by tagging once and without even taking a group photo, they had such a big reaction.

If they push her too far, she’ll just post their photos, appear on shows, and even flaunt her marriage certificate. If you make me unhappy temporarily, I’ll make sure you’re unhappy for a lifetime!

"Damn, I’ll post it right now!" Xia Siyu actually turned around to grab her phone. Hadn’t she just taken a bunch of selfies?

Bo Yan saw her getting more agitated and quickly covered her hand: "Alright, I know, I know. There’s no need for you to handle this yourself. You’re lowering your worth. If anything needs to be posted, I’ll do it."

It’s like in a family, if there’s an issue between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and the husband stays silent without any responsibility or ability to resolve the conflict. If he can’t even decide in critical moments, such a husband is pretty useless. To put it bluntly, he might not really love you, so there’s no need to waste energy on such a person.

Xia Siyu blinked: "You’ll do it yourself?"

Bo Yan nodded: "Yeah, I’ll handle it."

She quickly pocketed her phone: "Then make sure to make me look good in the pictures. Let your photo editor send them to me for approval before posting. If they look bad, those haters will just make fun of me again."

Bo Yan laughed: "Bad? When have you ever looked bad? You’re always the best looking, no matter when."

Xia Siyu proudly tilted her chin: "Of course. — But still, I need to see the photos first. Editing, anyway, needs to have balance, don’t overdo it. Although my beautiful face doesn’t need editing to look stunning, since I’m pairing up with you, I still need to see it."

Bo Yan rubbed his head with a smile, feeling all his worries disappear. He remembered just before, Xia Siyu was eating extremely spicy shrimp, but she quickly adjusted herself and even managed to lift his spirits.

Also, it seemed like her harsh words just now were intentionally for him to hear, to cheer him up.

He thought it was he who was looking after her, but unexpectedly, it was the other way around.

"Thank you."

Xia Siyu turned her head and looked strangely at Bo Yan, teasing him: "Who said there’s no need for ’thank you’ between a couple?"

Indeed, it was his words. He didn’t expect to eat his words within an hour.

"You’re right, I was wrong."

Xia Siyu was even more puzzled: "Why apologize? Doesn’t that make it more distant?"

"Oh, knowing terms like ’distant’ now? Have you been reading?"

Xia Siyu nodded: "Of course, I’ve even started reading ’Dream of the Red Chamber’ recently." She puffed up her small chest, full of pride, her face saying "come praise me!"

Actually, when it came to classical literature, her favorite parts were the melodramatic love stories in "Three Words and Two Shots." Like someone cheating on me, and I cheat on them back, ending with the cheated-on parties becoming a happy couple in these complex love chains.

Well, sex and violence will always hit the right spots in human hormones.

Among the four great classics, she had only seen "Journey to the West," and that too just the TV version. Reading "Dream of the Red Chamber" now was related to an upcoming movie she had to prepare for. She’d be portraying a classic lady and had to cram study to fit the role.

Bo Yan indeed found it interesting and deliberately asked her: "So how far have you got?"

Xia Siyu thought for a while: "Oh, I’ve read a lot. I reached the part where Jia Baoyu first learns about romance?"

...He knew it, this girl, even when reading such classical works, only remembers those parts.

Xia Siyu giggled: "Just kidding. I got much further, to where Daiyu scolds him as ’a silver-like spearhead, flashy but useless.’"

That might as well have been at the beginning!

Bo Yan asked her: "So what did you learn from it?"

Xia Siyu thought carefully: "Nothing at all. I initially wanted to learn how ancient noblewomen spoke and acted. Then I realized they were even more sarcastic and critical than me. Oh, the only takeaway is that men are no good; the guys in there, they either fall for everyone they meet, or they’re open to both men and women. The women are all excellent, and the men don’t deserve them. Like Jia Baoyu, who secretly got involved with one of his maids first. If it were me, I’d have kicked him away long ago, scumbag get lost.

Bo Yan found it amusing and annoying: "What did you even read, you must analyze it in the historical context of that time."

"Yeah, thank the new society, thank the new China." She added, "By the way, if you were back in ancient times, how many would you marry?"

Bo Yan straightened his back: "Of course, just one."

Xia Siyu teased: "Why don’t I believe you?"

Bo Yan laughed: "There’s nothing unbelievable about it. You see, in the Ming Dynasty, there really was an emperor with only one queen while being surrounded by three thousand concubines, completely showered with love. So it’s not impossible, it’s just about personal choice."

"Was there really such an emperor?"

Bo Yan nodded and said: "Looks like, after you finish reading these literary works, you might need to catch up on some history. Sometimes, historical events are even more melodramatic and thrilling than what’s written in books. Some even feel unimaginable in fiction, but they actually happened."

She’s already very smart, quick to grasp concepts and apply them to acting and life. Perhaps with strict training since childhood, she might have taken a different path.

However, Bo Yan seemed to notice her limitations. If one only focuses on trivialities, small assurances, it’s not to say they can’t achieve success, they can. Excelling in small tasks can bring great success as well.

But if her perspective, knowledge, and experience continue to expand, she’d be able to ponder and experience deeper, richer ideas. This would surely benefit her future acting career.

Xia Siyu frowned, slightly dissatisfied: "...If there’s a melodramatic story, I’ll reluctantly take a look. But..."

She turned back to look at Bo Yan: "Let’s first research this matter of Jia Baoyu’s romances."
