The Best Actor Insists On Living With Me!

Chapter 506: Chapter 505 Marriage, Love, The Past (5)
 

At that time, he had just given up his job at N University and plunged headfirst into the entertainment industry, his future uncertain. Xia Sicai, gauging the situation, got engaged to Bo Yi.

At that time, the marriage alliance between the two families had already been set in stone. Xia Sicai dumped Bo Yan and even got engaged to his cousin, and although Bo Yan himself didn’t mind, the elders of both families still felt they had done him wrong. Xia Youbiao, in particular, thought highly of Bo Yan as a son-in-law. Since the family had another daughter, they invited Bo Yan to have a look.

Meanwhile, Xia Siyu was besieged by scandals, she returned to the Xia Family because of her mother’s issue, and only agreed to meet the match arranged by the Bo Family as part of a trade-off for benefits.

And the unlucky one from the Bo Family, who had been stood up by her sister Xia Sicai before the engagement, was none other than Bo Yan.

You see, fate can be so mysterious sometimes.

After all that circling, didn’t they end up together anyway?

Bo Yan was indeed a bit surprised. But at that time, he was labeled as “the poor sod dumped by Xia Sicai,” “the cast-off unable to inherit the family business,” and “the rookie who defied convention to enter the entertainment circle.” From any perspective, he didn’t have the means to immediately win over Xia Siyu, just as Qin Baizhou had not dared to pursue her back then. So, when Xia Siyu suggested “going their separate ways,” he quickly agreed.

After many years apart, neither was the same as before. Even if Bo Yan was unwilling to accept this, desiring a reconciliation, Xia Siyu had already become famous, was the precious daughter of the Xia Family, with complicated relationships, and a strong-willed personality. If she was unwilling, he didn’t want to force her.

Even after marriage, they were one on the bed, the other on the sofa. They followed the rules, kept their distance, and watched over each other silently.

It wasn’t until now, when he had become an award-winning actor and a top-quality idol, overtaking others at the bend, no longer needing the influence of the Bo Family to get ahead, with the Bo Family instead hoping to use his fame for social connections, that he had the confidence to arrange all this—to get close to her, take care of her, and work hard together.

Essentially, he was no different from Qin Baizhou back then. That’s why he didn’t resent Qin Baizhou’s kindness towards her. But the only difference between him, and Qin Baizhou—or rather, between him, Xia Siyu, and Qin Baizhou—is that they would place more importance on movies and acting, whereas Qin Baizhou only had eyes for the benefits.

So even without him, Xia Siyu and Qin Baizhou were doomed not to end up together.

Bo Yan let out a self-mocking laugh. “Maybe I have some other considerations. Beyond liking, there’s also jealousy, anger, pity, or other various emotions. But that’s human nature, isn’t it? Who says love has to be as pure as a diamond? Even a diamond has imperfections. Love and hate, anticipation and memories, body and soul, all these complex emotions intertwined—choosing to like you after all that, that’s what love is. I know I disappointed you in the past, but from now on, whether you like it or not, I’ll make you want to be my wife, in every way.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Suit yourself,” Xia Siyu said indifferently with a humph.

Anyway, after all that nonsense Bo Yan said, wasn’t it all just to get close to her in the end?

Watching him just now, speaking with such remorse, it seemed as if he had committed some grave mistakes in the past. Yet now, he was undressing her with such ease.

She had made up her mind, anyway. Bo Yan kept saying he liked her, didn’t he? If he liked her, so be it—she was already liked by many, and wouldn’t miss just one more.
