Chapter 445: 444 Initiative (5)

Fans indeed vote for her and spend money on her, but there’s no need to hold oneself too highly and look down on fans. Nor is it necessary to treat fans like Gods.

She and her fans should have an equal relationship, like friends.

If they are friends, then they should help each other succeed. She works hard and aims to repay her fans’ affection with the best work performance. She guides her fans to follow stars in a positive way, to do charity work, and to participate in activities, and to reduce cursing. When it comes to endorsements and acting offers, she’ll fight for them herself; she doesn’t need her fans to charge into battle for her. If she’s capable, she can frequently give back to her fans, instead of exploiting them.

What fans need to do is just like her and take pride in her. Years later, when looking back on their fan career, they’ll smile knowingly: The star I chased back then was truly worth it. That’s enough.

“Hmm,” Qin Baizhou nodded, liking Xia Siyu more and more with every look.

Who says she’s foolish? She might be impulsive and quick-tempered, straightforward, and not sweat the small stuff. But she has a good grasp of the important things. Because she’s not materialistic, doesn’t demean others or put them on a pedestal, and treats everyone equally. She’s also not tempted by money and power, she’s got a firm backbone. That’s why she can act recklessly, and that’s why she doesn’t just go with the flow.

Arriving at Qingcheng Apartment, he said, “Siyu, I have something I want to say to you alone.”

Xia Siyu didn’t feel like talking to him anymore, not because she was angry about the comment he just made, but because she was too tired. These past few days she had been busy, and she hadn’t finished packing at home. She had to leave again tomorrow, and if she kept talking and chatting now, would she have any rest at all?

She flatly refused, “My flight is at 3:30 p.m. tomorrow, and I need to leave by 12. It’s a bit late now, and I’d like to go back and rest. Whatever you want to say, just message me on WeChat.”

Qin Baizhou was a bit anxious, “It’s important.”

If the person Qin Baizhou wanted to confess to wasn’t Xia Siyu, then by now, one might have detected something unusual. But unfortunately, this person who was rather oblivious, truly didn’t sense anything wrong: “Then just say it now. What’s so important that we can’t discuss it together?”

Qin Baizhou hadn’t expected Xia Siyu to be so blunt. Confessing love isn’t necessarily something that can’t be done in front of others. But if so, and if Xia Siyu were to reject him, they wouldn’t even have the chance to be friends anymore, and the awkwardness between them would be unbearable.

Moreover, it was the time for contract renewal. If she were frightened away from renewing her contract, the company would be furious.

Still not understanding, Xia Siyu looked at Wei Jingjing, “Jingjing, has the company made any significant decisions about me recently?” It couldn’t be that they were planning not to offer her good terms during the contract renewal, could it?

Wei Jingjing shook her head, “No, not that I’ve heard of.”

Thus, Xia Siyu glanced at Qin Baizhou again, with an inquiring look.

No matter how much Qin Baizhou had to say, suddenly he found himself at a loss for words. These words, how could he utter them, it would indeed be too embarrassing. And even if he did, it wasn’t certain Xia Siyu would agree right away, and even if she did, there was still Bo Yan, watching like a tiger eager for its prey.

He had no choice but to say, “It’s nothing big, I’ll come visit you in the Northwest next time.”

Xia Siyu kindly said, “You’ve been working too hard recently. Actually, you don’t need to accompany me on many of my trips. Those partners wouldn’t dare treat me badly. The contracts are there, and so is my reputation.”

Where Qin Baizhou wanted to go wasn’t the issue, what he wanted was just to spend more time with her!
