Chapter 781: Something Interesting was Waiting to Happen!
Just as Qiao Yiren knew, that sl*t was indeed her archnemesis!
The people around her had noticed that Qiao Yiren was acting strangely. Her loved ones looked towards her with astonishment in their eyes.
Qiao Bonian furrowed his brows as he looked at her daughter. He did not understand what was going on with her.
Su Manni noticed that her daughter had become agitated. She quickly held her hand and reminded her not to lose her composure.
Xia Chuxi, too, stared at her with knitted brows. The look in his eyes was strangely conflicted.
Qiao Yiren took a few deep breaths and managed to suppress the rage of envy in her chest. ‘Su Qianxun, do you think I’ll stop at ruining your dress tonight? Something interesting is waiting to happen!
‘Later on, the public will see the horrible things you have done!’
The emcee was holding the card with the title of the winner printed on it. “Dear audience, please look at the big screen.”
The big screen started playing three short films, one after another. The first one was about stray animals. The second was about disabled children.
After Su Qianxun watched these two short films, her desire to win the award instantly simmered down. She suddenly realized that these stray animals and disabled children needed more attention from the public.
The third short film started playing. When Su Qianxun and Rong Yebai appeared on the screen, the audience applauded.
Qiao Yiren had been waiting to humiliate Su Qianxun. She had paid the backstage staff handsomely to play a clip that would dirty Su Qianxun’s name instead of the short film.
But the short film continued to play. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary.
Qiao Yiren nearly sprung up from her seat. Su Manni grasped her hand tightly. She leaned over and whispered in her daughter’s ear, “Yiren, calm down right now. You’re about to receive the Best Actress award today. Once you get the award, our dream would come true. You must keep calm. Think about it, you’ve already owned everything– being a daughter of a rich family, the man who was engaged to Su Qianxun, and the honor of winning the Best Actress at two different awards. Today is the day you become a winner in life and completely outshine Su Qianxun. Do you want to ruin it for yourself?”
Mrs Xia and Xia Xinruo thought that she was not feeling well. They were awfully worried.
The film on the giant screen kept playing. The beautiful, romantic scenes were incredibly moving. The wonderful love between the two main characters even affected those who had stopped believing in love, and those people suddenly had the urge to fall in love, get married and give birth to babies as adorable as the one in the film.
The film ended. The audience gave a thunderous round of applause.
Su Qianxun shut her eyes tightly, waiting for the final result to be announced.
The award presenter announced that the work that received this year’s Best Short Film Award was the romantic short film by Director Liu Nian, Rong Yebai and Su Qianxun.
Director Liu, Rong Yebai and Su Qianxun stood up. Together, they went onstage to receive their award.
The three of them stood at the center of the stage. When Su Qianxun received the trophy from the award presenter, a broad smile appeared on her face. Under the dazzling lights, she looked like the bright moon in the sky, turning the sky full of stars into her backdrop.
At that moment, she was so beautiful that she took everyone’s breath away.
Xia Chuxi felt that too. In that instant, he finally realized what he had missed out and how blind and stupid he used to be!
Along with the two actors, Director Liu bowed to the audience and thanked them. Just as the three of them were about to get offstage. A spotlight shone on a spot below the stage. Long Sijue appeared with a bouquet, dressed in all black. He fixed his gaze on Su Qianxun’s glowing figure on the stage and slowly walked towards her, step by step.
