Soon, the award ceremony began.
Mu Yan had three nominations; as long as she wasn’t too unlucky, winning one award was a given.
Song Cheng’an estimated she would get two awards: one for the Most Promising Female Artist, and one for Best Newcor.
With the experience of winning at the last film festival, Mu Yan wasn’t as nervous, especially since she knew Jiang Jingheng was there with her.
As expected, Mu Yan won those two awards, just as Song Cheng’an had predicted.
She walked onto the stage to receive her awards, glanced at the man in the front row, then turned to face the others and delivered her speech.
"I just gave a speech earlier, so I’m not sure what to say now. But as a newcor in the acting world, I’m very happy to receive this award. I want to thank my friends, fans, and family who have always supported , and the directors who gave opportunities. I’ll continue to work hard, thank you all."
Being the only person to win two awards tonight, she naturally beca the center of attention, and the audience’s applause was enthusiastic.
Her fans in the back of the audience shouted, "Mu Yan, Mu Yan!"
At this mont, Mu Yan knew she had never been alone on her journey in the entertainnt industry.
She always had supportive fans by her side, and of course, him.
She looked at him, and he was looking at her too.
Their eyes t, his full of gentle light as he clapped along with everyone else.
At this mont, he wasn’t Young Master Jiang of Upper City; he was just a man supporting her career.
Then, the Best Supporting Actress award was announced and went to an actress who had been in the industry for over a decade.
Zhao Xiyue thought Mu Yan would be disappointed and comforted her, saying, "You’ve been in the industry for less than a year, your credentials are too new, winning the Best Newcor was the maximum for now. The organizers probably felt they owed you, so they arranged an extra award for you."
Winning an award already made Mu Yan happy, let alone winning two at once, but she accepted Zhao Xiyue’s kindness.
Zhao Xiyue looked ahead; only the Best Actress award was left to be announced.
Suddenly, a familiar figure flashed in her eyes.
Her expression changed slightly, and her gaze followed the tall figure.
Her first reaction was that she was seeing things; he couldn’t possibly be at such an event.
However, she hoped it was him in her heart.
That way, she could convince herself that he actually cared about her.
Mu Yan didn’t notice Zhao Xiyue’s actions; she was replying to Jiang Jingheng’s ssages.
He wanted her to co out now to return to the hotel together.
But the award ceremony wasn’t over yet; how could she leave, especially since Zhao Xiyue’s Best Actress award was at stake?
Soon, the Best Actor and Actress awards were about to be revealed.
Zhao Xiyue collected herself and focused ahead.
When the presenter announced Zhao Xiyue’s na, the crowd’s reaction was calm, as if everyone expected it.
After all, Zhao Xiyue was a good actress, her dramas were popular, and winning the Best Actress award was well-deserved.
Zhao Xiyue was accustod to winning awards and handled it with composure, but today she seed a bit anxious, and said only a few words before stepping down.
Returning to her seat, Zhao Xiyue seed a little restless.
Mu Yan asked, "What’s wrong with you?"
"I have sothing to do and want to leave early."
"But the award ceremony isn’t over yet?" Mu Yan looked at her in surprise and asked, "Is it urgent?"
"Yes." Zhao Xiyue nodded.
Mu Yan hesitated, "But this is a live broadcast. What if the caras catch you leaving? Maybe tomorrow’s papers will say you behaved like a diva after winning Best Actress, showing disrespect to other perforrs."
With that reminder, Zhao Xiyue cald down.
"Then I better wait until it ends before leaving."
She looked ahead, taking a deep breath. As long as he was in Dragon City, a little wait didn’t matter.
