Chapter 362 - Cheating
The presenter announced the rest of the awards amd came to the Best Female and Male Awards. There was a hushed tension from everyone below.
“Best male lead: Uncle and Flower’s Zhou Zizhe.”
With that, Zhou Zizhe stood up and placed one hand into his pants pocket. He used to be in the military and was less than 30 but his acting was incredibly stable. His uncle role had cemented his unbeatable position in the entertainment industry.
His role as an uncle was indeed very successful.
The fool at the beginning turning into the genius at the end. It wasn’t easy to be able to do so while acting. His acting was believable enough and left a deep impression in people. Hence, he was definitely deserving of this Best Male Lead Award.
This is his first time getting the best male lead and he finally had something to show in his 10-year-long career, his 10 years of hard work. When he took over the trophy, a big man like him started crying.
Next was the Best Female Lead Award. There shouldn’t be any surprises there since the show already won produced the Best Male Lead. With Yan Huan’s acting skills, this award would definitely be hers.
Moreover, Uncle and Flower’s box office is there for anyone to see.
There definitely wasn’t any cheating involved. This was an effort-filled work and that was how it managed to stand above all the competition to become one of the black horse films of the year.
Hence it was a given for Yan Huan to win the Best Female Lead Award. There were no suspicions there.
“Let us now announce the Best Female Lead Award,” the announcer stopped and took a look at his surroundings before continuing, “Our best female lead for this year is…”
The spotlight shone as it shifted towards Zhou Zizhe. He heaved a sigh of relief; the prize was Yan Huan’s for sure. Even though she wasn’t here, this was her prize.
However, before he could relax, the light moved away from him and landed somewhere else near. It was where the Three Kingdom people were sitting.
It landed on Su Muran’s head.
“The Best Female Lead for the year is Three Kingdom’s Su Muran.”
The announcer said excitedly but everyone below was in shock. They were speechless by the curveball thrown at them.
The annual best female lead was Su Muran.
Many people at the award show could rip Su Muran’s acting apart. Even the one who the best newcomer award had better acting skills than Su Muran.
One’s acting skills are there for all to see and good means good and bad means bad. No one is a fool and the conspiracy behind this award was pretty huge.
The announcer was a little awkward too. Weren’t they supposed to clap now? Why isn’t anyone making a noise?
“Let us welcome our best female lead to the stage to receive her award,” the announcer clapped first and the small applause below the stage appeared disjointed. Su Muran was still smug at first but with what was happening now, any smugness had become aggravation.
But she still adjusted her clothes and walk up the stage. No matter what happens, this award was hers. It was Su Muran’s. Of course she deserved it.
“What happened, why isn’t it our Huanhuan?” Yi Ling asked Li Changqing. She had brought her HD camera in plans to take a picture of it. Even though Yan Huan wasn’t around, this honor belonged to her and nobody could snatch it away.
But that wasn’t true, see, somebody had stolen the award. And so brazenly at it too, incredibly shameless.
Zhou Zizhe was already the Best Male Lead so how could it be that Yan Huan’s performance wasn’t good enough? Her acting skills and fame was there for all to see and was recognized by everyone in the industry. Even if Zhou Zizhe didn’t get the Best Male Lead, there was definitely no issues with Yan Huan getting the Best Female Lead Award.
This was the biggest chip that Yuelun was holding on to, to nurture an international female lead.
But what was this? Yi Ling couldn’t understand, so did Li Changqing.
“This is a fraud…” Li Changqing wanted to say something else but he had to swallow it back down at the end of the day. He tapped Yi Ling’s shoulder and didn’t say a thing. He could only sigh as he walked away.
Yi Ling was so mad that she could only beat on her chest, she wasn’t even afraid of squashing her xiaolongbaos.
“Tell me, isn’t this blatant cheating?” Yi Ling’s walked up and down angrily in front of Lei QIngyi. “Our Huanhuan’s web vote was first and Su Muran wasn’t even in the top 10. WHo gave her the right to be the Best Female Lead? With her acting and that act cute face of hers? She still needs to use eye drops to act her crying scene. Her face looks constantly in a daze and is expressionless all the time.” Yi Ling felt like she could act better than that woman. “Tell me, what is the meaning of this?”
Yi Ling sat in front of Lei Qingyi. “Are they taking us for fools? This is cheating. This is going by the backdoor. This is shameless.”
Her face puffed up from all her anger and her eyes were as big as goldfish. She thumped her chest again and her breasts…
“Stop beating.”
Lei Qingyi pitied Yi Ling’s chest.
“What?” Yi Ling was filled with rage and if she couldn’t beat her chest, what was she supposed to do? Hit her head against the wall?
Lei Qingyi pointed at her chest. “It is flat enough. If you beat some more, the xiaolongbaos will be gone.”
Yi Ling suddenly grabbed her chest and kicked Lei Qingyi as hard as she could. Lei Qingyi let her kick him too. After all, how much strength could a girl have? It was like scratching an itch for him, it didn’t hurt.
But he felt sad for her breasts. They were small to begin with and if she hit them anymore, they might just disappear.
“If you think mine are small, why not find another woman?” Yi Ling held onto her chest as she shouted right at Lei Qingyi. He had a loud voice to begin with but in front of Yi Ling, he looked like a meek daughter-in-law.
There will always be something out there to control anything in this world after all/
He touched his own shirt pocket.
“I don’t like them too big. This isn’t milk. I like it this way,” He chuckled and it seemed like he still had some goodness in him despite looking block-headed.
“What what…” Yi Ling felt her heart skip a beat and she couldn’t describe this feeling in her. It was as if she had fallen into a fire pit; she was burning.
Lei Qingyi took a look at her and lowered his head. He felt his heart tightened.
“I like your xiaolongbaos…”
