Chapter 52: 52 Kissing Scene (2)

Even Bo Yan didn’t realize that as he asked this question, his voice lost its usual steadiness and seemed to be faintly expectant.

Xia Siyu didn’t reply. After a little while, all he heard was her slow, steady breathing.

She had fallen asleep.

Bo Yan chuckled softly, relaxed a bit, regulated his breathing, gently withdrew his hand, and pulled back the blanket beside her to cover her.

Then he got up on tiptoe, and before leaving, he took a special glance back at the room. Xia Siyu was sprawled out in a comfortable sleep.

That was fine—her nature to come and go quickly meant she didn’t dwell on worries. If she faced storms he had caused, he would settle them for her.

After closing the door, Bo Yan walked to the water cooler, took a cup, and was about to fill it. Then, thinking of something, he turned to the refrigerator, took out a bottle of ice water, and twisted off the cap.

After gulping down three big swigs, his mood gradually calmed down. Then he slowly walked to the living room, sat down by the sofa, and picked up his phone to discuss tomorrow’s affairs with Song Fengzhi.

The movie was set to start shooting tomorrow morning. Since it was a story about Yancheng, the filming location was at the production company’s office, which saved him the fatigue of travel. Moreover, filming in the same city meant that if there was extra time, he could return home to rest at night. After the actors were confirmed, the production company had released the script. Once the team assembled, there would be a brief script reading. A script reading was a small-scale meeting where the crew, including the director, actors, producer, and screenwriter, would discuss the character designs, development direction, and plot. After the final draft was set, the script framework wouldn’t be significantly altered, ensuring that no capital or actor could arbitrarily add or remove storylines or interfere with dialogue, which also aided the actors in understanding and performing the script.

Of course, that was the final draft during the early creative phase. The final film still depended on the actors’ performance, editing, and post-production effects. Generally, the script reading would be scheduled before filming began, but Wang Ju was too busy lately, and both Bo Yan and Shang Feifei were flying around, so they could only advance after everyone involved with the project met following the start of filming.

As he looked on, his gaze drifted toward the coffee table, where the schedule for the reality show lay. Song Fengzhi was still discussing business with him. Moreover, Song Fengzhi paused to say, “Bo, about that… If there are any interviews coming up that ask about your personal life, you can choose to answer them and just let us know beforehand. It’s not that it’s bad, actually, it’s quite good, considering celebrities inevitably get asked these questions. Having an ex-girlfriend at least prevents all that nonsense about same-sex relationships from spreading in the news…”

He was referring to a previous interview where Bo Yan had talked about his romantic history. Bo Yan didn’t pay much attention to him but suddenly asked, “Will I have any free time in two and a half months?”

Song Fengzhi was momentarily taken aback, then said after some thought,

“There should be. May I ask for what?”

“About twenty days. I need a relatively uninterrupted period of time.”

Song Fengzhi checked and said, “There is some time available, and we can reschedule other engagements. Does Bo want to take a short break?”

Holding the schedule, Bo narrowed his eyes slightly: “Not really, it’s just that… I feel like I’m always too uptight, which is why the questions in interviews are so serious. I think I should get more down-to-earth, perhaps participate in a reality show or something..”
