Chapter 277: The Tease
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Shen Weiran’s usual makeup had been publicly recognized as well done, but suddenly, someone was pointing out that it did not suit her today. That could really count as a humiliation to her.
Even the host felt a bit awkward. Xia Ning was famous for her candid remarks and now, she was about to offend the Goddess.
Indeed, if it were some other star, they would already be pulling a long face. But Shen Weiran looked calm from beginning to end. She even answered, “Maybe it’s because I’m old.”
When people heard this, they would feel that Xia Ning was the one who was picking on others.
Xia Ning shook her head, “Not that. It’s because you are so close to the public, Goddess. Why would you put on such a cold makeup? I think you look very beautiful without any makeup.”
The host continued immediately, “You are indeed a fan and your idol is the best in any case. Well well, stop bragging and let our Movie Queen Shen take a break after standing here for so long.”
Shen Weiran held the trophy and stepped down the stage and the incident just now seemed to have ended.
Xia Ning looked at Shen Weiran and said with an innocent expression, “You can’t be mad at me for what happened just now, Goddess.”
Shen Weiran smiled. “How come? Miss Xia’s a straightforward person. I’ve seen that.”
Xia Ning said with a smile, “I have to be straightforward when it comes to my idol.”
Shen Weiran did not speak and put the trophy next to her.
When the ceremony was done, someone invited Xia Ning and Lin Nan for dinner and they both turned it down.
The two walked outside of the hall and Lin Nan said to Xia Ning, “You did not give Shen Weiran any face today.”
Xia Ning darted a look at him and said with a smile, “How so? I even admitted she’s my goddess.”
Lin Nan looked at her helplessly. When was Shen Weiran ever teased like this? Too bad she was not even able to let it out. Who knew how upset she was right now?
“Why do you hate her so much?” Lin Nan looked at Xia Ning with confusion. “You said at the press conference that you should call her Auntie and what does that mean?”
Xia Ning look at Lin Nan, “Of course it means what it says literally.” Suddenly, she felt someone walking towards her from behind. She turned around and saw the person. “Goddess, you are still here.” She smiled.
Shen Weiran looked at Xia Ning and said suddenly, “Miss Xia, let’s talk.”
Xia Ning looked at the time and said with a frown, “It’s getting late and we are planning to have dinner. Do you wanna join, Movie Queen Shen? We could eat and talk.”
Shen Weiran frowned slightly. “No need. I’ll see you around.”
Xia Ning said with a smile, “See you.”
Lin Nan saw Shen Weiran’s back and said to Xia Ning, “What does she want to talk to you about?”
“I think she wants to confirm something. But she should have an answer in her heart already,” Xia Ning said calmly. “It’s getting late. I’m going home.”
Lin Nan blocked Xia Ning. “Didn’t you say we are going for dinner?”
Xia Ning looked at Lin Nan in a funny way. “I was just saying an excuse to stop Shen Weiran. It’s too late to eat. Aren’t you afraid of gaining weight?”
Lin Nan: “…” Well, it was his fault to misunderstand.
In the car, Shen Weiran looked at Lin Nan and Xia Ning’s backs and frowned deeply. No one could tell what was going on in her mind.
Her manager, Li Day, asked on the side, “What’s the matter?”
Shen Weiran looked cold and said in a low voice, “Now that I think about it, we might have been tricked by this girl.”
