A-List Actress: Paper Marriage but Pampering Billionaire

Chapter 282: Best Newcomer Award!

Jiang Jingheng replied instantly, "The organizers invited me."Soon, he added another message, "Seeing me unhappy?"

Mu Yan thought about those women staring at him, and felt displeased.

"Very unhappy!"

Even through the phone screen, Jiang Jingheng could imagine her fuming expression.

He was a bit puzzled, what’s going on? Shouldn’t she be surprised?

Mu Yan wasn’t actually unhappy, just as she was about to send a message, she suddenly noticed a gaze fixed on her from the front.

She looked up to see the person standing in front—Zhou Lifen.

Zhou Lifen looked at Mu Yan with eyes that seemed to be poisoned.

Her mouth curled up in a silent sneer, then she turned and sat down.

Wang Linjia, who couldn’t stand her attitude, mocked, "Some people didn’t even have a film nominated yet still here piggybacking on the red carpet, really thick-skinned."

Zhou Lifen turned back to look at Wang Linjia, retorting, "Sister Lin Jia, even if you have a nomination, so what, do you think you can win?"

Wang Linjia raised an eyebrow, "That still seems better than having no nominations at all."

A flash of jealousy crossed Zhou Lifen’s eyes, deterred by the cameras everywhere, she turned her head forward.

Wang Linjia wanted to say more, but was stopped by Mu Yan.

She shook her head at her, indicating it wouldn’t be good if they got caught on camera.

Wang Linjia understood and didn’t say anything further.

Mu Yan’s gaze lingered on Jiang Jingheng for a few seconds, thinking about how Zhou Lifen, who coveted him, was sitting behind him, she felt even worse.

Soon, the award ceremony began.

The host entered, first introducing the twenty-four judges, then the awards officially began.

The first awards to be presented were for Best Supporting Actor and Actress.

Both were new generation actors, and their performances were decent.

This was followed by Best Art Direction, Best Feature Film, and so on.

It was almost time for the Best Newcomer Award, and Mu Yan started to get nervous.

Although winning wasn’t that important, having come here, there was still a bit of hope.

At this moment, the camera suddenly caught Jiang Jingheng, and his image was projected onto the big screen.

A wave of screams erupted from behind.

"So handsome!"

On screen, his handsome and refined face was expressionless, his gaze coolly watching ahead, full of dignified aura.

Seeing him, Mu Yan suddenly wasn’t nervous anymore.

After presenting a few more awards like Cinematography, it was finally time for the Best Newcomer Award.

The guests introducing the nominees walked out from backstage, unexpectedly it was Li Yushen and Xiang Lanqiu.

Yes, Xiang Lanqiu, who hadn’t acted in more than a year.

Tonight, Xiang Lanqiu wore a black and white checkered jumpsuit, simple and elegant, her hair tied to one side.

Her features weren’t exactly delicate, but she had a sort of enduring look, plus her tall stature, she appeared very graceful.

Everyone knew she and Li Yushen were fellow apprentices, had a good relationship, and there were many rumors about them in the past.

But these two let the media stir things up and still carelessly remained friends.

In the end, fans of both sides compromised; if their idols wanted to be siblings, what could they do!

Although they hadn’t collaborated in a long time, their rapport was as good as ever, making the audience laugh with some playful banter.

There were five nominees in total, and after the introductions, Xiang Lanqiu suddenly said seriously, "Senior brother, I finally understand why the judges insisted I present this award."

"Why?" Li Yushen asked her surprised.

"Of course, it’s to take the chance to grab a meal from my junior," Xiang Lanqiu joked.

She looked down at the audience seriously and announced, "This year’s Golden Retriever Award for Best Newcomer, the actress playing Princess Qingcheng in ’Dragon Soaring,’ Mu Yan!"
