Chapter 987: Chapter 978: Live Evening Party (2)

Xia Siyu didn’t mind. Bo Yan paused for a moment and then said, "Siyu."

Xia Siyu looked up. "Hmm?"

Bo Yan kissed her at the corner of her eye again. "I love you."

Xia Siyu froze for a moment. The maltose that hadn’t completely melted from before seemed to double, swirling sweetly in her heart.

At the very beginning of their reconciliation, Xia Siyu had indeed thought about finding a man who was more handsome and had a better physique and kicking him aside to pursue new happiness. But as her relationship with Bo Yan deepened, whether in work, in life, or within their family, she found herself unable to leave him.

Bo Yan depended on her, but wasn’t she the same? Bo Yan was no longer just a contractual husband who happened to sign the papers with her, nor was he the casual fling she could replace at will. He was a friend, a family member, and a lover. A celebrity’s life is inherently lonely; outside, there are either fans or haters, and paparazzi who thrive on chaos. Back home, their respective families were also a mess.

To be liked by him was a stroke of luck; to like him back was inevitable. It wasn’t about logic or reasoning; it wasn’t just because they were "right" for each other. It was simply that—just as he loved her, she loved him wholeheartedly too.

But Xia Siyu couldn’t help but act a little playful. Even though the corners of her mouth curled up and her head burrowed into the crook of his shoulder, she still said, "Words alone don’t count. Let’s see what you can do."

The sound of rustling came from beside her, and Bo Yan quickly flipped over, turning to face her directly. His lips brushed the corner of her lips. "What kind of performance? How should I show it?"

Xia Siyu giggled, stretching out her arms to hook them around his neck. She playfully pressed her lips against his face and winked mischievously. "What do you think?"

The rest of her words didn’t come out; they were completely swallowed by Bo Yan, leaving them lodged in her throat.

Hmm, sometimes, after an intense exercise session, a little stretching exercise afterward feels pretty good—it’s good for the body and soul.

On the night of the Little New Year celebration.

This time, Xia Siyu attended the Little New Year event hosted by a satellite TV station in a southern province. Since the official New Year’s Eve show was usually organized by the central network, the Little New Year event had become an unofficial year-end carnival for many provincial broadcasters.

This year, a cold wave passed through on Little New Year, and it was still rather chilly. Early in the morning, Xia Siyu and Bo Yan each took separate flights, deliberately traveling apart. It was the end of the year, prime time for paparazzi trying to hit their KPIs, and they’d undoubtedly be doggedly aiming their lenses at them.

She had no intention of getting caught in their shots and being forced to awkwardly confirm rumors. If she were to admit anything, it’d have to be of her own volition and on her own terms.

Besides attending the Little New Year event, she also had several interviews lined up and a commercial shoot on a tiny southern island. Once she wrapped up this hectic circuit, it’d pretty much be New Year’s. But even during New Year, her schedule was far from idle; she’d need to visit at least six cities for the "Storm" roadshow. If all went according to plan, she’d have to make an appearance in every city.

Her itinerary for the Little New Year satellite TV event was public knowledge, so some fans had found out her flight details and made their way to the airport to see her off.

Since her reputation took a hit years ago, it had been a long time since she’d gotten this kind of attention. Seeing fans approaching her for autographs, Xia Siyu felt a bit emotional, fulfilling every request for signatures and photos without exception.

Before boarding the plane, she messaged Bo Yan to boast: "Look how passionate my fans are!"

Bo Yan’s flight was later than hers, and he hadn’t arrived yet. He simply replied, "My wife is amazing."
