Chapter 306: Chapter 306: Not Allowed to Leave (5)
Qin Baizhou suddenly felt a bit impulsive and wanted to ask her if she really started a relationship with Bo Yan. freeweɓnovel.cѳm
He’d known her for many years, and her love or hate was always transparent on her face. It was clear from her expression that she held disdain for Bo Yan, without any attempt to hide it. Given Xia Siyu’s current status, fame, and earning power, she had no need to ingratiate herself with Bo Yan, nor was there any such thing as a kept relationship.
She already was at the top of the food chain, whether in terms of wealth, looks or status, all of them first-class. It was only after developing to where he was today that Qin Baizhou gained the confidence to dare to pursue her, this rose full of thorns.
She had complete autonomy in choosing her partner and didn’t need to be swayed by anyone.
Why then did she, on one hand, detest Bo Yan, yet on the other, be influenced by him, and even put on a mask in front of him?
“Knock knock knock,” the sound of knocking on the door echoed.
Qin Baizhou’s gaze flickered, and he quickly switched back to a smiling face, “Since it’s a decision you made yourself, then I’ll help you make the contact. Just one thing, if you’re going to do it, do it best. For an art film, it’s naturally about aiming for awards. I know you’re going to the West for filming, and I’ll take out time to follow the crew. You must perfect your shooting, tirelessly pluck at every detail in hopes of eventually contending for an award.”
Qin Baizhou stepped back, and Xia Siyu, not one to quibble, immediately nodded, “Sure.”
The atmosphere in the room relaxed, he went to open the door; it was someone from the show’s staff, bringing them drinking water. And the person knocking was also the on-site director, “Teacher Xia, Mr. Qin, your performance today was quite remarkable. I was wondering if you’d be interested in signing up as regulars?”
The team they joined today was from the “Artists and Agents” show, selecting famous agents and artists from major agencies, a mix of mental and physical challenges, an outdoor reality TV activity. Previously, it was always celebrities with celebrities, or celebrities with ordinary people, the pairing of artists and agents was less common, thus this was a trial project.
Not only did celebrities need to maintain a good image, so did the agents. Therefore, the plump agent from Wang Zisu and Zhou Weiwei’s company was eliminated.
Qin Baizhou, who was worried about not having opportunities to spend more time with Xia Siyu, naturally agreed. Xia Siyu was indifferent toward variety shows, and even if she was filming, taking a day or two to appear on a variety show as a guest would not be a hindrance.
Of course, there was an advantage to celebrities and agents appearing together; variety show salary caps were especially strict now, with a maximum of ten million for a regular appearance on a variety show, but when adding an agent, the amount could reach twenty million, complying with the rules. This was also a major reason why many artists were submitting applications to participate.
Since both were interested, the remaining negotiations were Qin Baizhou’s affair, and they could sit down tomorrow to discuss the details. It was a bit late this evening, so Qin Baizhou said, “Let me drive you home.”
“No need. Prince is in Yancheng, and he’s asked us out for dinner. I’ve arranged for Little Tang to drive me.”
Qin Baizhou didn’t object, “Have fun, and drink less. I need to take Jingjing first to discuss the details of this variety show contract.”
Xia Siyu nodded, and Qin Baizhou watched her get into Little Tang’s car with a smile. When he turned his head and rolled down his car window, although he still had a smile on his face, his eyes had instantly turned dark, “Jingjing, I have a question for you, and I hope you’ll answer truthfully. Have Xia Siyu and Bo Yan been living together for a long time?”
