Chapter 668 Red and Black · 2 Shang Yechu was stunned.
Shang Yechu could hardly believe her ears. She even suspected it was a prank by the host, or that she was so desperate to win that she had developed hysteria.
How is this possible? Luo Yao has already won the Best Director award, and now the Best Actress award is also going to be given to "The Forest Without Flowers"?
No more diversion? No more allocation? No more equal distribution?
Aren't they afraid of trouble from the South Korean media and public opinion?
He's so young and already hard of hearing; acting is really harmful!
The English translator passionately repeated the name of the Best Actress, and the two Chinese characters "Ye Chu" appeared out of nowhere, imprinted on the screen. Even now, Shang Ye Chu was still in a daze.
Luo Yao was the first to react, hurriedly pulling Shang Yechu up and shoving her out of her seat: "What are you standing there for! It really is you!"
Shang Yechu stumbled as she was pushed. As nominees for Best Actress and Best Director, she, Yang Huanyi, and Luo Yao were all sitting in the front row, so they didn't have to worry about bumping into anyone.
Shang Yechu stood there, stunned, looking up at the large screen on the stage. She didn't recognize the Korean, but she would never mistake the two characters in the center of the screen, even if they were burned to ashes.
She actually won the award.
Shang Yechu instinctively stopped in her tracks. The flashes of the media cameras clearly illuminated her astonished, surprised, and bewildered expression.
The Korean host tried to smooth things over, saying, "Oh~ it seems our Best Actress is quite surprised. Ye Chu, stop daydreaming and come forward, Best Actress of the Ying Shi Awards!"
Completely instinctively, Shang Yechu took three steps toward the stage.
Three steps.
After taking three steps, Shang Yechu suddenly stopped.
Almost instinctively, she turned around and looked in Yang Huanyi's direction.
The host coughed and said, "Oh dear, it seems our leading lady is quite reluctant to part with the other leading lady..."
A woman in a red suit stood on a red carpet.
Behind her was Yang Huanyi, another leading actress in the film, wearing a black dress; in front of her was a black awards stage, smooth as a mirror, reflecting her figure in a red dress.
She stands between red and black.
The venue was so large that she and her companions appeared very small in it.
The sky and earth are vast and boundless.
Suddenly, Shang Yechu took two steps back to his seat, bent down and hugged Yang Huanyi tightly!
The entire room went silent for a few seconds.
Luo Yao was stunned for a moment, then suddenly raised his hands above his head and clapped loudly!
As if a horn had been sounded, the stadium erupted in thunderous applause and screams!
The flashbulbs of the cameras rained down on the two embracing figures, just like the thunderous applause that filled the arena.
Shang Yechu hugged Yang Huanyi tightly, silently counting in her heart: three, two, one.
It also involves three steps.
That's the most I can have.
After three numbers, she opened her eyes, ended the hug, and walked towards the awards stage without hesitation. She never looked back once.

The host is quite professional; even though her mouth was agape just now, she's now expertly warming up the atmosphere. Although the show was already incredibly popular, she didn't really need to add fuel to the fire.
Shang Yechu had already prepared her acceptance speech, which was perfectly appropriate. There was absolutely no trace of the astonishing act she had just performed. The host didn't dare ask any further questions; even if she was bursting with gossip, she couldn't press her for answers at such a prestigious event as a film festival.
Luo Yao, in his early thirties, is at the peak of his directing career. With a virtually blank resume and no notable works, he created the high-grossing and critically acclaimed LGBTQ+ art film *The Forest Without Flowers*, winning the Best Director award at the Ying Shi Awards. A monster among monsters.
Ye Chu, a 23-year-old winner of the Best Actress award at the Film Festival, stormed into the film industry, which was full of seasoned veterans, and was also a true prodigy.
The host actually felt that the entire film crew of "The Forest Without Flowers" was a bit... well, a bit daring. The director came out as gay in his acceptance speech, and the winning actress then passionately embraced another actress. And all this in front of all the Asian media.
