Chapter 576: Chapter 575: Distance (1)
“You ate too much too quickly just now, be careful or later when we participate in the activities, you might have stomach problems.”
Xia Siyu actually had a quick temper, but it faded even faster. She would complain if she couldn’t eat something, but the thought would vanish instantly and she wouldn’t dwell on it.
After all, they were recording a variety show. They relied on the show to satisfy cravings, but even if the cravings weren’t satisfied, it wasn’t a big deal—the work was what mattered most.
But Qin Baizhou wasn’t like that. His nickname “Smiling Tiger” really meant that he appeared calm on the surface but was turbulent inside. When Xia Siyu couldn’t do something, she would forget about it immediately and move on to something else. He, however, would remain fixated on it.@@novelbin@@
This fixation lasted until they finished recording the variety show that night.
The variety show had been recording for a full two and a half days, ending tonight at midnight. Once it wrapped up, everyone would go their separate ways. Others were okay with this, but Wang Zisu was rather reluctant, holding onto Xia Siyu’s arm and shaking it back and forth, “Sister Siyu, my flight is early tomorrow morning, I am about to leave for the airport. I don’t want to go, I don’t want to leave you.”
Xia Siyu stroked his curly hair with her hand, speaking affectionately, “How about you come with me to the Northwest? I could really use someone to help out in the fields.”
Wang Zisu also quickly flexed his biceps, “I can do it, I’m up for it!”
Xia Siyu was pleased, “Carrying water, chopping wood, plowing fields, harvesting wheat, picking corn, and maybe even cleaning out the cattle sheds—you pick one.”
Wang Zisu immediately let go of her arm, “Sorry to bother you. I feel that I haven’t been focused enough on my music recently, I haven’t even finished writing the chorus for my latest score.”
The two separated with laughs. But while Xia Siyu’s words were without intent, Qin Baizhou heard something meaningful.
Carrying water, chopping wood, plowing fields, harvesting corn, and even cleaning out the cattle sheds—she actually did all these dirty and tiring tasks herself?
Although Wei Jingjing had reported to him that Xia Siyu did everything hands-on, he hadn’t imagined she would go this far. He turned to Wei Jingjing with a serious expression, “The tasks Siyu just mentioned, has she really done them all?”
Wei Jingjing nodded, “Yes.”
Qin Baizhou felt pained, “Did you guys help her?”
Wei Jingjing shook her head, “Siyu wouldn’t let us help.”
“Nonsense!” Qin Baizhou sternly admonished, “It’s fine if she wants to try, but how could you let her do it all alone? What if something happens, who would take the responsibility?”
It was rare for Qin Baizhou to be so serious. Known as the “Smiling Tiger,” even when scolding someone, he normally did it with a smile. Wei Jingjing, being reprimanded, hung her head and kept apologizing. But Xia Siyu couldn’t ignore it, “Isn’t this a trivial matter? Besides, it was my own choice. Jingjing and the others weren’t just standing by either—they were either helping me with tasks or focusing on cooking. During this time, Jingjing and the others have greatly improved their cooking skills, they make really delicious lamb.”
He was fine until the subject of food came up, but once mentioned, Qin Baizhou felt a twinge of hurt inside. Especially since it was connected to Bo Yan, and his irritation surged, “Siyu, you are a celebrity after all. Today was for the variety show, and wanting to eat more is one thing, but in the future, you absolutely can’t overindulge. You are in the rising phase of your career right now, and you can’t afford to make a small mistake that leads to a big loss. You need to maintain your figure, keep in shape, you must not overeat, you must not get fat.”
Xia Siyu was not one to take grievances—she was like a mule that goes easier if stroked the right way, and she would listen to a gentle, persuasive voice. But she could not stand being scolded and would not listen to a single word of it.
What do you think?
