Chapter 1281: Chapter 1272: Collapse (2)
"Bo Yan just called. He said he couldn’t reach you and asked me to pass along a message."
Wei Jingjing had always followed Xia Siyu closely and had kept things particularly clear with Bo Yan’s side. But if they were going public in the future, a lot of things would likely be handled together. Although Wei Jingjing and Song Fengzhi, the two teams, still weren’t meshing well, at this point there was no choice but to handle it together.
Xia Siyu said directly, "I’m tired, I don’t want to hear it. Also, you’re my manager, not his. If you mention him again, you might as well switch to his side."
After saying this, Xia Siyu directly hung up the call.
She thought about it and decided to turn off her phone. Once everything quieted down, she put her phone on the table, not bothering with the messages any longer, and went to the bathroom.
Before she turned it off, a message came from Wei Jingjing, which was forwarded and read: "If Ms. Xia isn’t worried about exposure, we’ll naturally promote it with great fanfare."
Unfortunately, Xia Siyu didn’t see it.

Early the next morning.
The rain had stopped, but the sky was still overcast. Xia Siyu went to bed early last night but kept tossing and turning, having bizarre dreams. Maybe it was because she hadn’t rested well, her left eyelid kept twitching this morning.
But it didn’t matter; left eye twitch means fortune, right eye twitch means disaster. She’s not superstitious; even if she were, she’d only believe things that are good for her.
Yesterday passed, and apart from her, Qin Baizhou and the production team all breathed a sigh of relief. Somehow, what was expected to blow up yesterday was averted in a twist, and it was all suppressed. The director from the reality show looked at Xia Siyu with extraordinary kindness, and today’s schedule was the lightest for her.
They were filming a romance reality show, and from the second episode, the groups of guests had been living in a large villa and sharing suites. However, when going out, the male and female guests of each group were usually together, but they all still took care of one another during outings.
For example, Chen Fan; his manager had subtly suggested keeping a distance from Xia Siyu. He didn’t quite understand what was happening, but he still treated Xia Siyu well over the past couple of days.
After several days of rain, the water level rose quite high. Even though Chen Fan and Zhou Weiwei had ranked higher earlier, Zhou Weiwei wanted to show ’friendship’ and automatically wanted to give the better boat to Xia Siyu, which Xia Siyu refused. Chen Fan silently helped them onto Xia Siyu’s more dilapidated raft, which wobbled a lot, and water seeped through the gaps in the bamboo.
Xia Siyu, as an artist, though internally bothered and unhappy about the situation, outwardly maintained the professional demeanor of an artist, cooperating with whatever the program group required.
However, this period of continuous rain has made the bamboo raft significantly less buoyant, making even the boatman cautious, worried something might go wrong—even without rain now, the water level is too high, and it’s dangerous even with life vests on. This section chosen by the program, although beautiful, has many hidden shoals and whirlpools. Without careful attention, one bump and everyone could end up in the water.
Meanwhile, the group with Chen Fan and Wei Jingjing had already passed them. Wei Jingjing shouted, "Do you want to come over, your boat..."
Xia Siyu shook her head, "No need."
Just as she finished speaking, the phone on her started to vibrate violently. Xia Siyu glanced at it and was stunned.
