“Just go with the accidental slip,” “It’s not a big deal,” “If it trends, just pull it down to avoid being exploited by someone with an agenda.”

His instructions were very official and positive. However, after asking around, he finally said to Wei Jingjing, “Have you called Siyu just now?”

Wei Jingjing nodded, “I did.”

“What did she say?”

Wei Jingjing said, “An accidental slip. Siyu said it was purely an accidental slip because she was sitting in first class with Bo Yan at the time, and they might have chatted about something, so she took a glance at his Weibo. She assured me that there is no intimate relationship between them, and they are not dating.”

Even though Bo Yan had made the comment, “Sleeping in the same bed, under the same quilt,” if Xia Siyu said it was okay, then it was really… okay, right?

Qin Baizhou gave an “Oh,” but didn’t feel any relief at all.

Wei Jingjing cautiously explained, “After all, we have a six-hour time difference from them. It’s three in the morning for us, and nine in the evening for them. Who sleeps at that hour, so…”

By the end of her explanation, Qin Baizhou didn’t reply at all, and Wei Jingjing faintly felt that the boss seemed to be… a little upset.

Qin Baizhou might not have been listening. After Wei Jingjing finished speaking, he simply said, “Keep an eye on the trending searches. If you can’t pull it down, try to suppress its visibility, and keep the situation from escalating. For the cost of pulling it down, have Xia Siyu pay you directly, deduct double. The extra will be your hardship fee. Also, get the PR team to start working urgently, prepare a plan just in case someone turns the heat on her. We can play up her naive personality to divert the public’s attention. We must make it clear that she is not dating Bo Yan. Insist it was an accidental slip, at most it’s a publicity stunt.”

“Alright.” Wei Jingjing couldn’t tell if she was mistaken, but their always calm boss seemed to have a slight… edge to his voice?

“You probably shouldn’t sleep tonight, there might be more issues,” Wei Jingjing heard the sound of Qin Baizhou putting his glasses on the desk, followed by the noise of the swivel chair moving. Perhaps he had taken off his glasses, resting his elbows on the back of the chair, supporting his forehead and massaging his temples, his head slightly bowed, speechless for a long while, just sighing.

Although Xia Siyu was the hottest celebrity in their company and could even be considered a top female star in the entertainment circle, she had a clear tendency to attract both fame and notoriety. Whatever she did seemed to cause trouble. The company was constantly in an uproar over trivial matters she provoked.

It took him a while to speak again, “During this time, has she talked to you about anything related to Bo Yan?”

Wei Jingjing instantly thought of the day Xia Siyu had said she had slept with Bo Yan. Though she was sure Siyu ultimately hadn’t gone through with it, that incident might have caused some change in the relationship between her and Bo Yan.

But she wouldn’t dare tell Qin Baizhou directly! If Qin Baizhou knew she was helping Xia Siyu keep secrets, he would be furious with her!

“No,” she answered firmly, “I just called her, and she made it clear that she and Bo Yan are not a couple.”
