The venue, which was gradually heating up, cooled down again because of this “Xia Wanyuan won the Prynne award”. Everyone’s gazes landed on Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan.

The lights in the venue had already focused on Xia Wanyuan. Jun Shiling reached out to help Xia Wanyuan adjust the necklace on her neck. Xia Wanyuan smiled at him with a small dimple.

Seeing Xia Wanyuan’s smile, Jun Shiling’s eyes were filled with gentleness.

The photographer wished he could zoom in on Xia Wanyuan 100 times more, so the scene of Xia Wanyuan smiling at Jun Shiling was naturally transmitted to the live-stream.

[… F*ck, this smile. I’m gone. How did Xia Wanyuan manage to be so cold and cute? If I were a domineering CEO, I would be willing to keep her.]

[Jun Shiling is so gentle. Oh my god, I reflect on myself. Why do I feel a little sweet?]

[Are you guys crazy? Have you lost your mind loving this couple? Jun Shiling has a child and a wife. He brought his lover out so openly. No matter how rich he is, he can’t change the fact that Jun Shiling is a scumbag and Xia Wanyuan is a mistress.]

Under everyone’s envious, jealous, and disdainful gazes, Xia Wanyuan walked onto the stage.

“Hello, everyone. I’m Xia Wanyuan.” Xia Wanyuan simply greeted everyone below the stage.

Strangely, after Xia Wanyuan finished speaking, only two places applauded.

One was where the production team of “Moon As Frost” was located, and the other was where Jun Shiling was sitting.

The organizers turned the camera to the audience. Everyone was either silent or disdainful. Although no one spoke, their expressions conveyed that they did not agree with Xia Wanyuan winning this award.

[How embarrassing… It’s indeed amazing to have a backer. Without Jun Shiling, how could she have won the Prynne Award?]

Xia Wanyuan’s fans could not sit still. Although they did not agree with Xia Wanyuan’s relationship with Jun Shiling, Xia Wanyuan’s acting skills were obvious. The fans tried to argue with the other audience.

However, no matter what the fans said, in everyone’s hearts, Xia Wanyuan was a mistress who relied on Jun Shiling. The live-stream was in an uproar.

The atmosphere was so awkward that the host quickly came to the rescue. “Okay, let’s take a look at the performance segment that the judges of the Prynne Award gave Xia Wanyuan high praise.”

With that, without waiting for a response, the host gestured for the performance to begin.

Smoke rose from the vast sky. Gunshots came from afar, making one’s heart palpitate.

“Quick, bring them away!!” Qin Manyue, who had just become a warrior, encountered a life and death situation on her first battlefield.

“Xiaoyue, we…” Her comrades’ eyes were filled with tears. They wanted to say something, but the enemy’s gunfire was getting closer and closer. It was too late. They could only harden their hearts and bring the last group of people across the river.

The last child successfully went ashore. Qin Manyue looked back.

Among those people were her comrades whom she had interacted with day and night, aunties who had cooked rice paste for her, and children who had learned how to read from her.

That group of people was the warmth she had regained after her entire family was destroyed. Qin Manyue’s eyes were red, but there was a smile on her face. Her eyes were filled with longing and sorrow.

The enemy had already appeared on the horizon. Qin Manyue finally turned around resolutely and gripped the gun in her hand tightly.

At this moment, her aura changed.

Her gaze was firm, like an unsheathed sword. Even though she had a delicate figure, under the setting sun, she had condensed into a war god with steel bones.

The setting sun fell on the river, painting it bright red. Only when the sun set over the horizon did the gunshots finally stop.

At this moment, Qin Manyue had already fallen into the surging river and disappeared.

The scene changed. Qin Manyue, who had been floating for an unknown period of time, was saved by the fishermen.

“Miss, you’re awake? Have a glass of water. I added ginger inside.” The simple fisherman handed a glass of warm water to Qin Manyue.

Looking at the ginger in the cup, Qin Manyue suddenly began to cry.

Her mother also had the habit of putting ginger in warm water.

Two months ago, she was still the pampered Miss Qin.

She suddenly felt so wronged.

A few hours ago, she was still a war god hero who used her delicate body to build a wall of life for the people behind her.

However, at this moment, a piece of ginger evoked all her fears, grievances, and longing for her family.

Qin Manyue cried as she chewed on the ginger.

In the audience, some people had already begun to cry with Qin Manyue.

The video stopped abruptly, and the lights in the venue lit up again.

[When she sacrificed herself for justice, Qin Manyue must have been brave. When she survived the calamity, she was also afraid. Heroes are not made of steel. She acted well.]

[ The moment Xia Wanyuan spoke, I cried. Alright, although her character is not good, her acting is good. ]

There was applause in the venue.

At first, there were only a few sparse ones.

Gradually, one by one, the applause lasted for a long time.

Everyone present was a professional in the acting world. They could naturally tell if Xia Wanyuan’s performance was good or bad.

In the five-minute video, Xia Wanyuan only said one sentence.

The other performances relied on expressions and limbs.

And Xia Wanyuan had done all of this to the extreme. From her performance, everyone could feel her courage to fight the enemy, her determination to protect her country, her dedication to her ideals, and her longing for her family. She was afraid of death.

The layers were rich and touching.

“Okay, now, let’s invite the country’s top actress, Madam Liu Lan, to present the award to Xia Wanyuan. Congratulations to Xia Wanyuan for winning the Prynne Award for Best Female Lead!” The host’s announcement sounded.

This time, the entire hall cheered.

While everyone was convinced, Xia Wanyuan took the trophy from Liu Lan.

“Congratulations to our Wanyuan. Wanyuan has won the Prynne Award at such a young age. You must have a lot to say. Please share your thoughts with us, Wanyuan?” The atmosphere in the venue finally heated up again, and the host secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

“Thank you, everyone. I’ll continue to work hard,” Xia Wanyuan said as she raised the trophy toward Jun Shiling’s direction.

The host was stunned. That was it?

Xia Wanyuan had already put down the microphone. The host hurriedly continued.

Xia Wanyuan did not return to her seat with the trophy. Instead, she was brought backstage by the staff. After every Prynne Awards, there would be photos with the posters.

“Congratulations, Miss Xia.” There were already many other actors backstage, including Lin Jiayin. “Miss Xia, you’re so lucky. You became the acting queen with a television drama.”

Xia Wanyuan glanced at Lin Jiayin, who was smiling lightly. She did not speak and walked straight to the camera to take a photo.

Ignoring Xia Wanyuan, Lin Jiayin did not take it to heart. She seemed to unintentionally chat with the manager beside her. “Sister Yang, I heard that your sister is sick. How is her condition?”

“The situation is very bad. You don’t know, but my brother-in-law recently had a mistress outside. The mistress looked like a vixen and seduced my brother-in-law to embarrass himself outside.”

The other actresses backstage also came over. “Yo, how can a disgusting thing like a mistress swagger around outside?”

“That’s right. Rats in the gutter. They still have the cheek to come out after eating what others left behind.” As the actresses spoke, they secretly glanced at Xia Wanyuan.

However, to everyone’s surprise, Xia Wanyuan did not react at all. She naturally held the trophy and took photos with the camera.

Tsk, how thick-skinned. The actresses pursed their lips. “Sister Yang, how did your sister resolve it later?”

Lin Jiayin’s manager raised her voice. “Damn, a mistress will always be a mistress. My brother-in-law only wants something new. Men still have to return to their families in the end.”

Everyone was discussing backstage, their voices getting louder and louder, as if they were afraid that Xia Wanyuan could not hear them.

The photo was finally taken. Xia Wanyuan stood up and glanced at the actresses who were squeezing together and mocking her.

When everyone met Xia Wanyuan’s cold eyes, their hearts trembled. However, on second thought, they did not say anything about Xia Wanyuan. What was there to be afraid of? Hence, they glared back righteously.

They were all women. Why could Xia Wanyuan win Jun Shiling’s favor and win the female lead award? Why didn’t Jun Shiling like them?

It was obvious that she had sensed everyone’s hostility. Xia Wanyuan had also heard their insults. She took out her phone and pressed a number.

“Hubby, I’m backstage. Come and pick me up.”

Xia Wanyuan’s words instantly caused the entire backstage to fall silent.

After the call, Xia Wanyuan sat on the chair and waited. The others left and waited with her.

Three minutes later, Jun Shiling entered the backstage with a fierce aura.

This was the first time everyone had seen Jun Shiling so close. Their eyes were filled with surprise. When they reacted, they hurriedly lowered their heads and tidied their makeup.

However, Jun Shiling’s gaze never landed on them. He strode towards Xia Wanyuan and draped the clothes in his hand on her. “Is it over?”

“Mm, cold.” Xia Wanyuan wrinkled her nose, her voice soft and coquettish.

Jun Shiling smiled and leaned over to kiss Xia Wanyuan. Then, he pulled her hand and placed it in his clothes. “Good girl, let’s go.”

Everyone watched in a daze as Jun Shiling gently held Xia Wanyuan’s hand and walked out of the backstage.

It was not until the two of them had completely disappeared that everyone reacted.

Everyone was charmed by Jun Shiling’s handsome appearance. Handsome was just his appearance. Other than that, he was also the head of the Jun Corporation, a man standing at the peak of China’s power.

Such a man was gently warming a woman’s hands and personally sending Xia Wanyuan to the ceremony. The jealousy in everyone’s eyes turned corporeal.

“Hubby? Shameless. Why don’t you call him godfather?”

“Green tea b*tch, is she doing it for us to see?? She thinks too highly of herself. She even made her feel superior as a mistress.”
