Qiao Xi couldn’t help but laugh when she heard this.
"Cough."
Jiang Yongge also held back from laughing.
He braced his hand against his lips and coughed softly.
With people coming and going, if a real fight broke out here at the venue, there would be quite the drama to follow online tonight.
Yan Fanghua glanced at him and then sat up straight, withdrawing her gaze.
Su Tutu snorted and rolled her eyes towards her retreating figure: "So people just have too much spare ti and have to make their presence felt. Do they really think certain things are unknown to others? The internet has a mory, you know!"
Su Tutu simply couldn’t stand Yan Fanghua.
Everyone was having a good ti, but she just had to stir up trouble.
Yan Fanghua wanted to tear into Su Tutu when she heard her, but she restrained herself.
Qiao Xi felt a finger poking her shoulder, and without looking back, she knew it was Shen Dang.
She tilted her head slightly, her eyelashes drooping, without looking at him: "Stop it, let’s talk after the film festival is over."
"Okay then."
Shen Dang leaned back lazily.
Qiao Xi was sowhat speechless, she straightened up and stopped paying attention to Shen Dang, lifting her eyes towards the stage.
The award ceremony had begun.
Sheng Chao pondered a bit: "What are you talking about?"
Shen Dang looked at him: "Want to know?"
"No need."
He shouldn’t have asked.
Shen Dang drawled: "Oh, it’s just Teacher Qiao preparing to go public with ."
The man’s tone carried an unmistakable pride.
"..." Sheng Chao: "Congratulations on finally being able to make it official."
"Thank you."
Shen Dang was all smiles.
Sheng Chao: "..."
He could predict that this bastard would always show off their love in front of them.
He truly hoped Xixi wouldn’t go public with him too quickly.
Su Tutu even took the ti to give Shen Dang a thumbs-up: "Boss Shen is mighty!"
"Hmm?"
Sheng Chao felt jealous again.
Su Tutu said playfully: "But of course, my husband is the mightiest."
Sheng Chao was satisfied.
Shen Dang: "..."
Speechless.
Qiao Xi: "..."
Can’t you all just quietly watch the awards?
Su Tutu and Sheng Chao had been chatting all evening.
One would turn around to talk, the other would lean in to listen.
They were perfectly in sync.
The sweet whiff of their love filled the air around them.
"Tutu, don’t just look at Brother Chao, take a look at the stage."
Qiao Xi gently patted Su Tutu’s thigh.
The Best Supporting Actress award was currently being presented, and Queen Su, who was nominated, seed to be indifferent.
"Ah? Oh." Su Tutu laughed and sat up straight, looking towards the stage to show her regard for the award.
Tonight, several films competed for Best Supporting Actress alongside Su Tutu.
Their wonderful scenes were shown on the big screen as it rolled.
The live cara swept over the faces of the nominated actresses one by one.
Su Tutu’s big smile blossod; her eyes curved and shone brightly, not showing a hint of nervousness.
There were other awards to present, so the presenter didn’t beat around the bush.
"The winner of the 43rd Manhua Film Festival’s Best Supporting Actress is—Su Tutu!"
"Congratulations."
Qiao Xi was the first to speak.
"Congratulations, my wife!"
Sheng Chao patted Su Tutu’s head.
When the spotlight hit her, Tutu snapped back to reality.
Oh, whoa.
Best Supporting Actress, her?
It was indeed her!
"Tutu, quick, go up there!"
Qiao Xi was just as thrilled.
Her good friend winning an award was like their film receiving the utmost recognition.
Qiao Xi stood up and hugged Su Tutu.
Mo Qing also nodded with a smile, "Go ahead."
Amid the warm applause, Su Tutu gracefully walked towards the stage.
After delivering a long speech, Su Tutu returned with the Best Supporting Actress trophy.
In the end, Best Actor did not go to Jiang Yongge but to an experienced veteran actor.
This veteran had starred in a war-thed movie.
The movie was released on National Day, October 1st.
It was a massive hit, earning over a hundred billion in box office revenue, becoming this year’s highest-grossing film.
The movie’s success owed much to its the, reputation, and the actors themselves!
Jiang Yongge took his loss in stride.
When the cara panned over Mo Qing, he was still smiling and applauding.
Jiang Yongge graciously accepted defeat for Best Actor.
Yan Fanghua was already aware of this outco.
"Movie Emperor Jiang, better luck next ti. It’s regrettable you lost because of the genre. You would have definitely won otherwise."
Jiang Yongge finally understood why Qiao Xi and Su Tutu didn’t like her.
It was a common knowledge, yet she alone would bring up such things under a pretense.
Jiang Yongge forced a thin smile, his words light: "I’m not regretful. The road of films is long, both failure and success may co; I hope Movie Queen Yan can shine later!"
Yan Fanghua huffed coldly, withdrawing her gaze.
She wasn’t even nominated!
As ti passed, it was ti for the competition for Best Actress.
The stage’s big screen continued to show amazing clips of the nominated actresses.
Competing against Qiao Xi were seasoned actors, so even a decade older.
They had all won various awards before, and in comparison, Qiao Xi still had much to prove.
Moreover, one of the films was the sa war-thed movie that just won Best Actor.
There was a strong chance that the film would yield a Movie Emperor and a Movie Queen.
However, Qiao Xi’s on-screen performances shone brightly as well.
Her emotional range in the kidnap scene was continually intense, deeply moving the audience.
When she turned back in tears, her emotions burst forth with overwhelming impact.
Her acting was definitely noteworthy.
Yet, she faced stiff competition from the war-thed movie.
"The winner of the 43rd Manhua Film Festival’s Best Supporting Actress is—"
The presenter was an internationally famous actor from Hua Country.
At this mont, he deliberately built suspense.
After drawing out the tension, he finally revealed:
"The winner of the 43rd Manhua Film Festival’s Best Supporting Actress is Mo Huatang, congratulations!"
[Congratulations to Movie Queen Mo!]
[Mo Huatang deservedly wins Best Actress!]
Amongst the congratulations,
There was also mockery of Qiao Xi.
[Haha, Qiao Xi’s acting is good, but no award?? Where are the ones who were just praising her? Co out and break a leg!]
[Has it beco a joke now?]
[No Movie Queen Qiao, only Movie Queen Mo, lo and behold~]
[Now I believe this film festival wasn’t rigged!]
While Qiao Xi missed out on Best Actress, and there were many online who mocked her,
Compared to the jumping mockers, Qiao Xi was quite calm.
It was just narrowly losing to another Movie Queen; she had many more endless possibilities ahead.
Although a little downhearted, she quickly processed her emotions.
"In my heart, Teacher Qiao is the best, and you are undoubtedly the next Movie Queen."
Listening to Shen Dang’s flattery, Qiao Xi couldn’t help but laugh: "I will work hard on a few more films."
"Let’s go."
Shen Dang reached out his hand to her: "We’re going ho now."
"Okay."
Qiao Xi placed her hand in his palm.
