Chapter 931: Chapter 922 Gathering (6)
Xia Youbiao was over fifty, but because he took good care of himself, he still looked like he was in his early forties. He also stayed trim from playing golf regularly, avoided the greasiness that cos with middle-aged n, and still carried the refined and cultured air around him, appearing even more composed than in his younger days.
It made sense, though, since all three of Xia Youbiao’s children were attractive, he himself must have been quite handso. If he hadn’t been good-looking, Wen Qunxiao wouldn’t have fallen for him.
When Xia Siyu first laid eyes on her father, her imdiate reaction was to frown: “Why are you here?”
Xia Youbiao felt awful. He had co all this way to see his daughter, only to be t with her disapproval. “Of course, I ca to see you.”
He had noticed her with Bo Yan the mont he entered, and of course, he had seen Qin Baizhou too, pausing for a mont.
Xia Siyu had never introduced him to her colleagues at work, her assistants, agents, company superiors, partners, or artist friends; he had not t a single one of them.
But not having t them didn’t an he wasn’t aware of them. Just like Qin Baizhou had secretly inquired about Xia Siyu’s background, he too had investigated her financial requests and knew that this person was her agent.
As a father, it was natural to be concerned about his daughter’s career and life. It was just that he hadn’t spent much ti with Xia Siyu when she was young, and she had joined the entertainnt industry against her family’s wishes, becoming estranged from them. Now that he finally had the chance to et one of her colleagues, he was sowhat excited: “And this is?”
Xia Siyu was taken aback for a mont, then rembered that the current situation was quite awkward. She actually didn’t want to mix work with personal life. Especially with their status as public figures; if the company found out about her situation, they might blow things out of proportion.
Her origins, her mother, her family, everything would be dragged into the spotlight, which was the last thing she wanted.
However, Qin Baizhou realized this was a good opportunity. He wanted to pursue Xia Siyu, and since it was difficult to approach her directly, he would have to go through her parents. He quickly bowed his head: “You must be the uncle? Hello, uncle, my na is Qin Baizhou, I’m Siyu’s agent.”
Xia Youbiao had t many notable figures, the richest man in China, the mayor of Yancheng City, and even leaders from so central ministry, but his excitent upon being greeted by Xia Siyu’s agent was indescribable, he quickly extended his hand: “Hello, hello, hello, thank you for always taking care of our Siyu.”
Xia Siyu furrowed her brow, not wanting them to interact further, and turned to Qin Baizhou: “Qin, I’m sorry, sothing ca up at ho, I can’t entertain you tonight.”
That was pretty much a polite way of asking him to leave, and Qin Baizhou was clearly aware of it. He nodded: “That’s OK. You attend to your matters, we’ll talk after you get back to the hotel.”
He stood up ready to leave, then glanced at Bo Yan, who hadn’t budged an inch—no, it wouldn’t be accurate to say he hadn’t moved; he had taken off his coat, clearly intending to stay awhile in the private room!
The key point was that his actions did not seem to bother Xia Siyu in the slightest, nor did she attempt to usher him out along with Qin. Her father, it seed, also approved of Bo Yan staying, only excusing Qin.
Qin Baizhou felt a shock in his heart. What did this an? Were they eting the parents? Had their relationship progressed to this point already?
Would it not be long before the two of them formally registered their marriage?
