Gu Jingyu said, “Alright, seeing that you are so self-aware, I shall not be formal with you.”
When Lin Che heard Gu Jingyu say that, she glared hard at him, “Nobody is like you. Shouldn’t you be encouraging me at this point and telling me that I still have a chance?”
“But Feiran is indeed powerful. I can’t be that hypocritical.”
“Get lost. You’re just flipping the friendship boat now. I’m not going to care about you.”
Although she said that, Lin Che actually understood deep down that it was almost impossible for her today.
The major awards were finally being announced.
After a round of performances on the stage, the host invited the guest presenter to present tonight’s Best Female Lead Award.
Mu Feiran’s nomination was for a palace drama while Lin Che’s was for a modern drama. Behind them was a spy drama and a slice-of-life drama. Images of the four people shifted around and the host’s voice echoed in the grand hall.
When it came to Mu Feiran, the playback reflected her journey from the time when she was the fourth female, then the queen of topics, and then finally, to her acting skills. All these proved that Mu Feiran’s journey was humble and actually very commendable.
Then, it came to Lin Che. Lin Che’s records were pitifully few. In the playback, an impassioned voice talked about Lin Che’s past from a nameless small fry to a second female, and then to someone whom people couldn’t stop talking about. She became termed as one of the best newcomers. Within one year, Lin Che showed everyone what it meant to become instantly famous. They anticipated more of her work and also better performances in the entertainment industry.
Lin Che watched all these and felt that she was already extremely lucky for today. The girl in the past would never have dreamed of it.
After that, it was finally time for the results.
“Thus, this year’s Panda TV Festival Best Female Lead Award goes to…”
“Mu Feiran!”
As expected, there was no suspense.
Mu Feiran stood up and amidst all the congratulations, she smiled and walked up the stage.
Lin Che sat below and felt more relaxed.
Although she already knew that it wouldn’t be her, she still felt a little disappointed.
Because she was nominated, it meant that she had hope. Now that it was all for nothing, she would have definitely felt disappointed. Lin Che looked ahead as Mu Feiran gave her speech very professionally. She had won awards countless times, so she looked very casual. There was not a big wave of hype in her expression.
Lin Che sat there and wondered when she would be able to be like Mu Feiran and filled with accomplishments.
She only just started on this journey.
Sometimes, fans didn’t mean anything. Temporary popularity also didn’t mean anything. To be popular for so many years like Mu Feiran was what it meant to truly be capable.
Just then, Qin Wanwan who was sitting at the front turned back and said to Lin Che, “Lin Che, getting nominated is already proof of your ability. Don’t take it to heart. You may not have won this time but you definitely will next time.”
Lin Che smiled, “Thanks for your consolation. It’s alright. I knew that I wasn’t going to get it anyway. The main thing is that I participated this time.”
“Indeed. I’m already so envious that you got nominated,” Qin Wanwan smiled and said.
Many eyes turned to her as if to say that they knew Lin Che didn’t have this ability. She was only here today to be cannon fodder.
Lin Che was initially feeling fine but under those stares, she really began to feel depressed.

What did winning or not have anything to do with them?
Qin Wanwan who seemed to have noticed the stares as well turned back and continued comforting her, “It’s okay, Lin Che. They are like that. They don’t like to help those in need but they love kicking others down. Wasn’t that always the case in this circle? Don’t mind them too much.”
Lin Che forced a smile, “Yeah, they can look all they want. I already think that it’s not bad now as compared to when I couldn’t land any roles in the beginning.”
“Exactly.”
On the stage, the awards were continuously given out.
After the Best Male Lead and Best Picture Awards were given out, the host’s voice suddenly rang again, “Next, the high-profile, online poll for the King of Fashion, our Most Popular Actor and Actress Award will finally be announced. The online voting has closed just a minute ago. Now, everyone will be able to see the latest vote counts immediately.”
“Through a month of online voting, our millions of netizens have finally chosen our King of Fashion for tonight.”
In the next moment, the numbers were displayed on the screen.
Lin Che’s vote count was up there too and her name was clearly higher than anybody else’s.
The host turned around to look. He smiled and said, “Congratulations to this year’s King of Fashion; the Most Popular Actress Award goes to Lin Che!”
The entire hall’s pitiful eyes once again turned around with surprise and jealousy. However, Panda TV Festival’s numbers were not fake. It was her. It really was her.
Gu Jingyu nudged Lin Che at the side, “Go on and get your award.”
Lin Che froze. Before she could react, she stood up awkwardly.
All of Lin Che’s focus had been on the Best Female Lead award. She didn’t think that she would be nominated, so she forgot that there still was this segment.
However, she also never thought about this before because there were too many people nominated. She always thought that it wouldn’t be her turn since she didn’t have as many fans.
So now, she looked dazed and particularly comical.
She walked over like a wooden block until she took the trophy. She still couldn’t quite believe it.
From below, Mu Feiran already took her award and went downstage. At the side, Qin Wanwan looked in front of her. Mu Feiran chuckled and said, “I didn’t think it would be Lin Che, but it makes sense. She took part in many programs recently. She’s always bright and likable. She especially has a variety show effect. The Internet highly favors her.”
Qin Wanwan said beside her, “Yes, Lin Che is very outstanding.”
But nobody was actually particularly optimistic about Lin Che. She started out on a bad note and she became famous by accident. She wasn’t the type that companies would take a liking towards and she didn’t take great efforts to pull strings.
On the other hand, Qin Wanwan was different. From the moment she started out, she was her company’s subject for grooming. There was big news the moment she started, saying that she was the most beautiful without makeup and very powerful.
Qin Wanwan’s face stiffened. She turned back and watched Lin Che walk down the stage. Everybody was congratulating her and she joined in the crowd.
Lin Che smiled and replied to each one. Her palms were sweating as she held her trophy.
She only seemed to regain her composure when she sat down. She said, “How come it’s me…”
Gu Jingyu was amused by her. He pinched her face, “Silly girl. If it’s you, it’s you. The online votes picked you. How would I know if you ask why it was you?”
At the banquet after the awards ceremony, the dinner was mixed up. Lin Che sat there for just a short while when she received a call from Gu Jingze.
