Chapter 1006: Chapter 997: Mother and Daughter (3)

As usual, when Bo Yan walked in, the room erupted in cheers. Xia Siyu followed closely behind, instantly displaying her Sichuan opera face-changing skills, with contempt written all over her expression.

After all, during today’s post-performance interview, Xia Siyu kept throwing around dismissive “it was okay” comments, which practically drove her fans half-mad with anger.

To her fans, idols are flawless beings. If you see a problem, it’s your own eyes at fault—it could never be an issue with their beloved idol.

Still, there was security on-site to maintain order, so no one was throwing eggs—yet.

Xia Siyu completely ignored these fans. Maybe it was because she’d learned about her mother’s situation from a young age, but she’d developed an unruly personality. She liked to snap back with lines like, “Mind your own damn business,” or, “How is that my problem?” She and Bo Yan took separate elevators.

The two of them weren’t even staying on the same floor. At that moment, many other celebrities were staying in the same hotel too, as the organizers had arranged all their rooms uniformly. That night, Bo Yan didn’t sneak into her room—not that there was any need to.

By the time the interviews wrapped up, it was already late. And tomorrow, Xia Siyu had a magazine shoot lined up, while Bo Yan and Shang Feifei were set to be guests on an all-day variety show to promote “Storm.”

After that, Xia Siyu was scheduled to fly to a southern island for a two-day commercial shoot. Bo Yan was likely to catch a flight to join her there once the variety show ended, so the two of them could return together.

During the New Year season, even though the two had to do promotional tours for the film, aside from those, they had no other engagements. It was almost like they were going on a city-hopping date every day. The initial plan for the roadshow included five stops, starting with two days in Yancheng, followed by Shangcheng, and then Nancheng.

However, the pandemic had an impact on the film industry. The midnight premiere, originally scheduled for New Year’s Day at zero hour, was now postponed to nine in the morning. This meant Xia Siyu and the others didn’t have to pull an all-nighter and could actually relax at home and celebrate New Year’s Eve comfortably. Out of the five cities planned for the roadshow, two recently issued emergency notices. While theaters remained open, measures to avoid crowding led to the cancellation of roadshows and similar large-scale events.

During the Spring Festival, major production teams and studios also shut down operations. This gave them an unusually long break to enjoy some quality time at home together.

Their work schedule for the upcoming year could wait until next year. For now, they just wanted to rest well.

Early the next morning, Xia Siyu headed out for the magazine shoot, while Bo Yan and Shang Feifei went to a nearby film studio to film the variety show. The two groups went their separate ways, even checking out and leaving at different times. From the outside, it seemed as though the two groups had no connection at all.

When the magazine shoot wrapped up, Xia Siyu immediately flew to the island, checking into a hotel not far from the commercial’s photography studio that evening. Meanwhile, Bo Yan was filming a slightly prank-heavy reality show. From the moment they entered the hotel, the director started rolling cameras. That night was an absolute chaos of antics.

At the same time, promotional videos and teasers for “Storm,” which had been pre-shot, were being released bit by bit each day. Alongside the clips, posters were unveiled—the first day’s promo featured Bo Yan.

Soon after, Xia Siyu began shooting the commercial. While it was freezing outside elsewhere, the island remained unusually warm at around twenty degrees Celsius. Bo Yan and Shang Feifei, as contestants on the variety show, faced various challenges. Thanks to their high IQs, EQs, and prior collaboration chemistry, the two worked seamlessly together. Instead of being sabotaged by the resident cast members, they hilariously turned the tables, even clinching the first-place prize in the end.

This variety show aired during the New Year season, perfectly coinciding with the film’s release.
