The awards ceremony felt like another kind of grand feast.
Jiang Yue originally thought she was just joining in the fun, but she didn't expect to win the Most Popular Award. Although she wasn't the only one to win the award, it seemed like a case of spoils.
But she was in a good mood when she stood on the stage with the trophy in her hand.
If she were to receive a Best Host award tonight, she might feel a little undeserving.
Now she can win the awards voted by the audience without any psychological burden.
I also felt a sense of accomplishment.
She had no idea how captivating she looked standing in the center of the stage, her eyes sparkling with a smile, shining like a bright, glittering star.
Jiang Yue did not prepare an acceptance speech in advance. She thanked her fans for their support and also thanked herself for being likable.
Her confidence doesn't come across as offensive.
Looking at her face, I couldn't help but feel that she deserved it.
Ye Lan, who was highly anticipated before the awards ceremony, only won the Newcomer Popular Actress Award, which was far from the Best Actress Award that her studio had hyped up in advance.
Tonight, before Jiang Yue appears.
Ye Lan is indeed the most glamorous young actress. Although the fantasy romance drama that aired before the Lunar New Year wasn't a huge hit, it was still managed to be marketed as a popular show.
She's a beautiful woman.
However, she pales in comparison to truly stunning beauties, especially since she happened to be wearing the same brand of dress as Jiang Yue tonight.
She had a hard time getting her hands on this dress.
The staff deliberately leaked the information to the fans, and before the fans could even boast about it, they were silenced. It's really a case of rivals meeting on a narrow road.
Ye Lan regarded Jiang Yue as a thorn in her side.
Jiang Yue didn't even notice this person; their seats were quite far apart.
No one knew what Jiang Yue's ability was to sit in the front row. After the show ended, she was secretly escorted out of the venue by bodyguards. There was no chance to even get a chance to make sarcastic remarks to her.
Jiang Yue had a great experience tonight; everyone she met was very polite to her.
Even seniors with much higher status and fame than her were very enthusiastic towards her, without any obsequiousness or belittling.
Jiang Yue didn't feel flattered; she just gained a deeper understanding of her own remarkable charm.
After the banquet, Zhou Ji offered to see her off.
Since it was on the way anyway, Jiang Yue wasn't too resistant and regarded Zhou Ji as a kind-hearted and helpful driver.
The car was spacious, but her large skirt inevitably took up some of his space. The soft skirt casually draped over the man's legs. Her black trousers had a beautiful drape and looked to be of high quality.
The car had the air conditioning on, so Jiang Yue didn't feel cold and didn't wrap herself in a shawl.
The dim light fell on the woman's snow-white skin; her complexion was exquisitely beautiful. The man calmly looked away, and after a moment, handed her his suit jacket. "Aren't you cold?"
Jiang Yue shook her head: "I'm not cold, thank you."
After the divorce, Jiang Yue found Zhou Ji more and more agreeable; it seemed that this man could be quite gentle at times.
For no apparent reason, he gave her a very calm and reliable feeling.
"The air conditioning is on very high, but I don't feel cold at all. You don't need to be so polite. You're treating me like a porcelain doll."
Zhou Ji pursed his lips and remained silent for a long time. Of course, he knew it wasn't cold inside the car...
never mind.
Zhou Ji forced himself to look away from her, his dark pupils then calmly gazing ahead.
Jiang Yue drank some champagne at the banquet. Her alcohol tolerance was inconsistent, but she was clearly sober now, only she was talking more in front of him.
The little girl lazily rested her chin on her hand, her fair cheeks flushed with pink, and said, "Don't you think I'm very popular?"
Her eyes seemed to sparkle with a radiant light. Zhou Ji looked into them and was easily drawn in. The man swallowed hard, and after a moment, replied in a hoarse voice, "Mm."
While feeling a little smug, Jiang Yue also had an animalistic intuition: "But there are many people I'm meeting for the first time tonight, people I don't know before, yet they're incredibly enthusiastic towards me."
Zhou Ji remained unfazed: "They might all be your fans."
Jiang Yue thought about it and realized it wasn't impossible, but the chances were a bit low.
"What if they have some ulterior motive? Do they want to get something out of me?" The girl muttered to herself, but quickly dismissed the thought. After all, the other party was already famous. What could they possibly want from her?
He had neither fame nor fortune.
After such a thorough analysis, it seems they are all genuinely fond of her and that's why they're trying to curry favor with her.
Looking at her deep in thought, Zhou Ji couldn't help but chuckle. The corners of his lips turned up slightly, and his smile became more refined and gentle.
He loosened his tie as soon as he got into the car; the tie was loose, and two buttons at the collar were undone, making him look lazy and casual, with a touch of dashing and unrestrained charm.
Now that he's not holding back his smile, he looks even more alluring.
It wouldn't be wrong to call him a male fox spirit.
Every gesture she makes is alluring.
Jiang Yue stared at him quietly, her eyes somewhat dazed, as if she were lost in thought, or perhaps she had momentarily drifted off into a daze.
Perhaps it was because I had been drinking, my mind was a little muddled.
The blood in his entire body was unusually hot.
The flow rate seems to be faster than usual.
The moment he leaned close to him, his heart pounded violently in his chest, like it was being struck by lightning.
My hands and feet feel a little numb and hot to the touch.
Jiang Yue didn't know what was wrong with her. She shrank back and stammered, "You...you're too close to me."
So close, it felt as if I could count his eyelashes.
The man intensified his advance, pressing closer to her, his hot breath falling on her cheek as he whispered, "Why is your face so red?"
Jiang Yue was like an honest person being provoked by a seductive woman outside, her face flushed red, and she stammered, feeling a little guilty: "I don't know, it's just very hot."
Zhou Ji raised his hand and gently touched her face, then hummed in agreement, "It is indeed very hot."
Jiang Yue didn't brush his hand away. It seemed like their noses would touch in the next second. She stared at his lips. The alcohol made her forget to think, and many words came out without her thinking: "Your lips look delicious."
The man remained silent for a few seconds, then slowly smiled.
His dark eyes, like calm lakes, gazed at her and asked casually, "Would you like to try some now?"
