The Best Actor Insists On Living With Me!-Chapter 720 - 717: Serial Scandal (5)
Chapter 720: Chapter 717: Serial Scandal (5)
And just when Xia Youbiao still wanted to confirm with Xia Siyu, her director called her. Xia Siyu replied with a, “Got it.”
Then she looked down and added, “I need to get ready to shoot.”
Xia Youbiao uttered an “Oh,” and Xia Siyu hesitated for a moment before turning back to say, “Take good care of yourself.”
After that, she hung up the phone.
Just that sentence made Xia Youbiao’s eyes brim with tears, deeply moved.
Between daughter and him stood over twenty years of estrangement, especially since her mother’s death, which directly detonated this mine. From then on, Xia Siyu saw him as a scourge and was reluctant to speak more.
But she still cared about him in her heart.
In the years Xia Siyu struggled in the entertainment industry, Xia Youbiao was always behind the scenes, pulling strings to protect her. This time was no different.
After thinking, he, as an elder, figured it wouldn’t be quite proper to confront the situation directly. Instead, he made an inside call and summoned his son.
“Dad, what do you need me for?”
Xia Ju’an had already joined the company, working in furniture design. He studied engineering; unlike his versatile sister, he was straightforward in his work. At the company, he focused on ergonomic science, on using the most skin-friendly yet comfortable materials, all the while maintaining a sense of design, incorporating Northern European, Japanese, and traditional Chinese styles. Some of their collaborative limited editions were extremely luxurious. Even though pricey, they were popular among the middle and upper classes due to their comfort, durability, and aesthetics, and their market share was steadily increasing.

“Do you have time this coming weekend?”
Xia Ju’an thought for a moment, “It’s nothing big. I can free up some time. Dad, do you have something important for me to do?”
“It’s very important, and only you can do it,” Xia Youbiao said. “It’s about Siyu’s scandal. How do I put it, I had you investigate before. But this time, I am seventy percent sure that Siyu might be cheating.”
Xia Ju’an was taken aback. He had been busy with a sofa design project recently and hadn’t had time to pay attention to entertainment news. Xia Siyu cheating? What was this all about?
“Dad, aren’t you overthinking it? Every time you’ve heard rumors about her, you overreact,” he said. When he saw those messy scandals, his first thought was to wish he could take out those who spread such rumors if they were false. And if they were true, he wished he could take out the men harming his sister.
“This time, it could really be true. You know Han Yifan, right? Bo Yan’s classmate, that second son from the real estate Han Family, who also studied with Siyu. It’s him. And he even visited the set, and he’s still there! I suspect that after some inexplicable rumors a few days ago, he went there to assert his dominance.”
“Since he’s Bo Yan’s classmate, why not just ask him?” Xia Ju’an was about to make a call when Xia Youbiao pressed down on the phone: “Are you dumb? You want to confirm with the victim? What men fear the most is being cuckolded! From the phone call I just had with Siyu, the situation hasn’t escalated to the worst step. As long as she and Han Yifan haven’t crossed that line yet, everything that happened before can be discussed. Even if Siyu and Han Yifan are truly in love, they have to properly divorce me first. But before that, don’t go discussing with Bo Yan, and don’t provoke him. If things get out of hand, you’ll need to help mediate in the middle. The best outcome would be to persuade Siyu to pull back from the brink!”
