His tone was fairly easygoing. If it were someone else, would he still have such a good attitude?
Embarrassed that they had been waiting for her, Su Jiu quickly replied, “I’ll be right back!”
She rushed back to the set in ten minutes. Xia Yi curiously asked her, “Where did you go?”
Su Jiu casually replied, “I went to see a friend.”
“A friend?”
Xia Yi raised an eyebrow. “Boyfriend, huh?”
“Yes, boyfriend,” she admitted bluntly. She had just gone to meet her boyfriend. Nothing was wrong with that.
Xia Yi was stunned. She has a boyfriend?
Seeing his surprised expression, the assistant beside him leaned closer and said, “I also saw the news of Miss Su posting on Weibo that she has a boyfriend.”
Xia Yi looked at him and grumbled, “Then why didn’t you tell me? I thought…”
…that she didn’t have a boyfriend.
If she didn’t have one, he could try to naturally get closer to her. But that was inconvenient if she had a boyfriend. Xia Yi wondered if he showed even a little enthusiasm and the media caught him, how would they report it.
However, if he were being honest, he was not against having a scandal with Su Jiu. This was because she gave him a feeling different from what he felt with other girls. The moment he saw her, he felt a sense of familiarity.
Perhaps, her popularity was too high, and he would see her updates on Weibo from time to time. Therefore, even if he had not really met her before, he was already familiar with her.
“Do you have a girlfriend?” Su Jiu asked casually again.
Xia Yi shook his head and smiled. “Not yet. The company said that they won’t let me date until I’m 25. By the way, doesn’t your company object to you dating now?”
“No. Of course, there’s no point in objecting.” She wasn’t going to break up with the little villain just because the company objected to them dating.
Xia Yi’s assistant laughed. “Miss Su, you’re quite privileged. You entered the entertainment industry purely because it’s your hobby, right? If you were unhappy, you would probably quit, right? Because quitting this industry doesn’t affect you much. Your father is the Best Actor, and your mother is the Best Actress. You won’t have to worry about anything for the rest of your life.”
“I don’t have to worry, but I have to work hard too. I can’t just rely on them, right? Although it’s very comfortable to eat and wait for death, if I do that, what’s the difference between me and a salted fish?” Su Jiu’s face was filled with seriousness.
The assistant said nothing.
Please let me be a salted fish like that!
Xia Yi gave him a sharp glance, trying to signal him to shut up. If he didn’t know how to speak, then he should have just kept quiet.
Su Jiu was a person with dreams and aspirations. Did he think that she was like him? Not everyone preferred to eat and wait for death every day, wishing to do nothing for the rest of his life!
The assistant resentfully shut up and just resigned himself to simply looking at Su Jiu with envy.
Xia Yi’s gaze returned to Su Jiu’s face, and he asked, “Is it alright if I ask who the friend you mentioned is? Perhaps, I know him too.”
“I can’t tell you. Sorry.”
Xia Yi choked and suddenly wondered if that person was really her boyfriend.
If his girlfriend was filming, he would visit her too. So, it seemed very likely that this friend was her boyfriend. Xia Yi was suddenly curious. What kind of boy could win the heart of this little princess?
After all, as far as he knew, Su Jiu had many boys around her since she was young. Among them, there was no lack of rich people. For example, there was the son of Best Actor Han, who had had a scandal with her previously and who seemed to have been called Han Siye.
Han Siye and Su Jiu could be considered childhood sweethearts, but she had rejected him. It was obvious that she had high standards.
But if she didn’t want to say who it was, he couldn’t press her. So Xia Yi smiled and said, “Okay, I won’t ask.”
But he would find a way to find out. He was curious about this.
That evening, Su Jiu returned to the hotel.
