Qin Baizhou glanced at him sideways. Everyone here was a master at socializing with grace, so of course, he had his manners. He smiled naturally and said, “Of course, I don’t mind.”
So Bo Yan sat in the middle, and Xia Siyu got in last, leaning against the window. Xia Siyu did not feel suffocated by the air in the car, she was just a bit sleepy; after playing games on her phone out of sheer boredom on the flight, now she felt dizzy at the sight of her phone and could only rest with her eyes closed.
Consequently, the one who would normally liven up the atmosphere had succumbed to sleepiness, and the others were even more silent. Wei Jingjing and LaXiaotangittle Tang sat in the front, sitting up straight, feeling the undercurrents of tension from the back and not daring to even breathe too loudly. Bo Yan was not a talkative person; he sat in the middle with a calm demeanor, sitting up straight. Xia Siyu leaned against the window, and even when resting, she did not sit still; she slanted and took up more than half of the seat.
Bo Yan did not move her; he doted on her by letting her legs rest on his own. Xia Siyu became even more brazen, squeezing out half of the space for herself in the back row of three. Bo Yan indulged her further, bending down to remove her shoes to make her more comfortable.
Qin Baizhou watched from the side, his heart filled with unwillingness.
If he were her boyfriend, he too could do all these things, even better than him!
But he could not make a move, not yet—his previous confession had already scared her. No matter what, the most important thing was to get her to sign the contract first, to keep her around!
Throughout the ride, no one spoke; the car smoothly drove to the hotel.
Once the car stopped, Bo Yan gently shook the sweetly sleeping person awake, “We’ve arrived.”
“Arrived?” Xia Siyu opened her sleepy eyes and yawned. Only then did she realize she had been taking up half of the space, leaving the two men crammed awkwardly.
She hurriedly retracted her legs, and Bo Yan bent down to pass her shoes to her, “Here you go.”
Xia Siyu playfully complained, “You’re not even helping me put on my shoes.”
Right after speaking, she suddenly remembered that Qin Baizhou was present too. It would have been fine to say it to Wei Jingjing and LaXiaotangittle Tang, but it seemed inappropriate for Qin Baizhou to hear it.
But then she thought, what does it matter if he hears it? She and Bo Yan were a legitimate couple, and she had already made her stance clear: she would not abandon her marriage for Qin Baizhou’s sake.
Xia Siyu’s emotions moved swiftly; once she had thought it through, she was instantly free of any worries.
Upon arriving at the hotel, she got out of the car first, and as everyone else followed suit, just as they were about to enter the elevator, Qin Baizhou suddenly spoke up, “I’m sorry, Professor Bo, but you can’t go up with us.”

At his words, the expressions of the others showed light confusion. Qin Baizhou explained, “It’s not that I’m targeting you. It’s mainly because Siyu and Shang Feifei from the neighboring crew have been closely watched by the paparazzi recently, you know that, right? Siyu hasn’t gone public with her relationship yet, so please try to avoid any suspicion. Your company probably doesn’t want your romance to be exposed either.”
His reasoning was cogent; anyway, it meant one thing: to cause discomfort to Bo Yan and prevent him from following along.
Bo Yan did not seem surprised at all, and with a casual nod, he said, “Fine, I’ll come up later.”
Since Qin Baizhou was there, he probably wanted to discuss business. Although they were a married couple, it was sometimes better to handle certain matters independently. After all, Wei Jingjing was with her, and she was sure Qin Baizhou wouldn’t dare cause any trouble.
Xia Siyu didn’t think too much of it and stepped into the elevator ahead of the others. As the elevator doors closed, cutting off Bo Yan, Qin Baizhou then asked, “How many days will Professor Bo be staying? I’m sorry, but given the current climate, you have too many paparazzi around you, so you need to be more careful.”
