Chapter 291 - 165. Lu Li said at the award ceremony live broadcast, ’Wanwan is the most wonderful girl in the world.’ _2
Mu Jinqian didn’t give Mu Jin Huan a second chance to decline, stood up, headed upstairs, and with a smile said, "Dad, bear with it for another two minutes, I’ll be right back."In fact, it didn’t even take him two minutes to come back downstairs with the chess set, so Mu Jin Huan didn’t refuse again, scooted a bit forward, and started playing chess, with an attitude that wasn’t exactly distant, merely not talkative.
Mu Jinqian and Cheng Shihong watched the game from the side, occasionally chatting, the atmosphere pretty harmonious.
Faintly, there were sounds of firecrackers and fireworks outside the window, and after the advertisements on the TV ended, the broadcast switched to the annual Grand Entertainment Awards of a certain TV station.
The award presenter kept the suspense for quite a while before announcing, "Best Actor: Lu Li."
Upon hearing this name, Nan Wan lifted her head to look at the TV screen, which switched the camera to where Lu Li was sitting.
Amidst resounding applause, he gracefully nodded with a smile, accepted the trophy with both hands, and embraced the award presenter in gratitude.
The screams and applause echoed throughout the hall, and the host had to raise their voice to assert their presence.
"Congratulations to Lu Li, ’South Wind Knows My Heart,’ a dark horse, breaking the 200-million box office in its first week, you could say it’s the best-selling teen movie in recent years. Do you have anything to say to the fans who have always supported you?"
Lu Li adjusted the microphone height, then put his finger to his lips, curving the edges with allure, "...shh."
The screaming fans on site really did quiet down.
The spotlight shone on Lu Li, his entire being surrounded by circles and circles of radiance, extraordinarily handsome and seemingly untouchable.
He held the microphone with one hand, began to speak, "I’m Lu Li, it took me eight years to get to where I am now, I should be thanking my parents who gave me life, I should thank my mentors who taught me acting, I should thank the directors who recognized my talents, I should thank the fans who stayed by my side no matter how good or bad I was..."
He said each one slowly, then paused for a few seconds before continuing, "...but on this awards night that the whole world can see, I most want to thank my best friend, her name is Nan Wan."
There was an uproar in the audience.
Clearly, the host didn’t expect him to mention the awkward ’ex-wife’ in such an important event, but the host’s on-the-spot adaptability was strong, they managed to reset the atmosphere within a few words. Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on Nov3lFɪre.ɴet
Mu Jinqian looked at Nan Wan playing Lego with Qingqing on the carpet, a gentle tranquility between her brows, and a delicate smile on her cheek that seemed focused on assembling the transformer toy in her hands.
Then he looked at Mu Jin Huan playing chess, serene and calm, seemingly unaffected.
Mu Jinqian raised an eyebrow and put down the remote control.
Once the atmosphere on-site settled, the host breathed a great sigh of relief, aware that this was a live broadcast and there were no chances for correction if something went wrong.
A gracious smile, "Lu Li, your fans seem reluctant for you to step down so quickly, would you mind saying a few more words?"
Lu Li didn’t seem to mind either, his facial expression hadn’t changed throughout.
"Today’s probably my last appearance on TV, so I hope everyone gives me a bit more time, a bit more time to speak."
Not only were the fans on site shocked, but even the host was dumbfounded.
What does this mean? Quitting the entertainment industry at such a critical time during one’s career peak?
The director, seeing the ratings climb steadily, immediately cut the camera to Lu Li’s most suitable angle, and simultaneously instructed the host not to interrupt.
"We’ve known each other since childhood, she’s my only friend, when I was crushed under rumors and unable to move forward, she agreed to a mock marriage with me to help dispel the ’gay’ rumors."
"I was cowardly, I feared cyberbullying, and I feared facing reporters who questioned me every day whether I liked men, I could only watch helplessly as she bore all the insults without a single word of complaint."
He seemed oblivious to the whispers and discussions around him.
"None of the dirty things reported in the newspapers about Nan Wan are true, she never had any unclear relationships with any man, even during the six months of our mock marriage, we simply lived on the same floor of the same building, her on the left, me on the right."
Lu Li paused, as if reminiscing, "The girl I liked is in another world, ’South Wind Knows My Heart,’ this movie is all about her, so I wasn’t acting, but missing her."
