Chapter 1019: New Year (1)

Xia Siyu blinked again. "What do you mean?"

Just now, this guy was quoting old literature one sentence after another. Bo Yan thought she had understood him. Turns out, she's still clueless—fallen victim to her lack of learning.

He simplified it for her: "You idiot, what I'm afraid of is that, if we go public, you won't be able to handle the backlash and will want to cut ties with me. What I'm worried about... is you leaving me."

Fans are important, but he wasn't living his life for their sake. He couldn't possibly fulfill every fan's wish to stay single forever, never marry, and grow old while keeping them company.

Once they become public, he wouldn't deny it, but it would inevitably trigger a chain effect. Xia Siyu would face harsher attacks. As for himself, worst-case scenario, he could give up being an actor, transition to working behind the scenes, take a few years to sharpen his skills, become a director, learn more, and eventually come back with new works.
