Chapter 262: The Struggle for Power (6)
Bo Yi furrowed his brows, already very impatient. He managed to suppress his emotions, but his smile had faded, “Is there anything else you need?”
Bo Yan put on a smile, “Thanks for the couple’s watches you sent, cousin. I hope we can wear them together for Grandfather’s birthday.”
Bo Yi was stunned, never having expected Bo Yan to bring this up at such a time, and felt his composure slipping. He gritted his teeth and said, “Fine.”
Bo Yan’s smile at that moment was particularly sincere, “It’s the Patek Philippe New Era model, not expensive, just over eight million. Thank you.”
When they participate in variety shows, after working themselves to death for twenty days, they could only earn ten million. After taxes and sharing the cut, getting three million in hand was considered good. By just casually racing once, they could earn eight million without the need to deduct taxes or split the earnings.
He hoped his cousin would do this kind of foolish spending more often.
“The New Era, is it? Alright,” Bo Yi barely restrained his urge to hit him and left the racetrack with a dark expression.
Bo Yan watched as Bo Yi and his entourage left the venue; only then did his face gradually darken.
It wasn’t enough.
It still wasn’t enough.
His status still wasn’t sufficient.
Even though he was now a figurehead for the Bo Family, with a status even higher than Bo Yi’s.
But it was still far from enough.
He must try harder, become stronger, at least to the point where no one would dare to insult Xia Siyu to her face, dare to take advantage of her behind closed doors, dare to smear her reputation behind her back!
Even though she herself didn’t care, why should she bear such unfounded reputations?
She was indeed strong enough to face the storms, but he, always hoped that there could be fewer storms for her.
After returning home, Bo Yan logged into his main Weibo account and wrote a blog post.
The content read, “I am grateful for the love and support of my fans, but I also hope that your affection and support can be extended to others as well. Xia Siyu and I do have conflicts, but more often, we are partners, friends. I admire Xia Siyu’s attitude towards her work and enjoy our collaboration. The incident that happened early this morning was a misunderstanding, and I hope everyone will not speculate too much, especially refrain from insults and slander. I’m sorry for having disturbed others and for any disruption caused to the airport’s order. I hope everyone can chase stars rationally and live a healthy life.”
After his post was published, it was tantamount to admitting that his fans had caused the commotion at the airport. But because his tone was so gracious and the wording sincere, it left a good impression on bystanders.
The fans also felt they had let down their idol and, when reposting the comment, added their own sentiments:
“The best brother in the world”
“Wuwuwu, we let brother down”
“Brother is so capable, we don’t deserve him”
After posting the blog, he also contacted his agency, requesting a strict control over the fan club. Those who liked to cause trouble or set the tone could gradually be excluded from the core of the fan club.
Afterward, his management team quickly purchased the hashtags #BoYanApologizesBecauseOfFans# and #BoYanRegulatesFans#, rounding off the matter neatly.
Xia Siyu might be angry, and he could understand that. Were he in her shoes, being pointed at and cursed, he might not be able to stand it either.
An idol has to pay for the fans’ behavior. It was his fans who were cursing, so naturally, it was his problem.
It couldn’t go on like this; changes had to be made.
After taking care of these things, he waited at home for Xia Siyu to return.
However…
