Going to the good times together (3)

When she went on stage to receive the award and give her acceptance speech, she followed the script given by her assistant in advance and thanked the company, director, and crew one by one. After a pause, she said something that was not in the script.

“I’d like to take advantage of today’s opportunity to say something to the audience and fans who are watching the live broadcast. My agency and my manager are all very good people and respect my wishes very much. I like acting very much, and I only want to act in the future. I won’t do anything else.

“If everyone really likes me and likes to watch me act, then respect my decision. In the future, I’ll meet everyone with my work. When we can’t see each other, I hope everyone can live well, love their family and friends, and live a good life together.”

After she finished speaking, she bowed deeply to the camera closest to her.

There was three seconds of silence, then thunderous applause.

Qu Huaian straightened his back and walked down the stage from the side, holding the hem of his dress. When he reached the last step, he saw a familiar and tall figure in the dim light, and his heart suddenly stopped.

“Sister qu, Qianqian.”

A familiar voice sounded, and qu Huaian came back to his senses. He saw Xie Yumu walking over from backstage. He had grown a lot taller, his eyes were bright, and his facial features had matured.

Mumu Qianqian, “she said in a choppy voice.

She was caught off guard and was not mentally prepared. She didn’t even know how to face them.

Xie Yumu didn’t feel unfamiliar with her at all. He took the initiative to hold her cold hand. why didn’t you leave without saying a word? you didn’t even answer my call! Did old man Xie bully you again?”

Qu Huaian did not dare to look at the man’s expression at the moment. He squeezed out an apologetic smile at Xie Yumu. I’m sorry, Mumu. It was my fault to leave without saying goodbye. I apologize to you. I hope you can forgive me. ”

Xie Yumu snorted. that will depend on your performance. There’s an event at school tomorrow. If you come, I’ll forgive you.

Qu Huaian hesitated and didn’t answer. Now that she and Xie tingxi were divorced, it wasn’t appropriate for her to go to his school.

Just as she was about to find a reason to reject him, the man who had been silent suddenly said, ” let’s go.

“I haven’t had a fight with sister qu yet.”

Before Xie Yumu could finish his words, Xie tingxi’s eyes flashed with a cold light, and he swallowed the rest of his words.

Xie tingxi didn’t see her, so he walked away without looking back.

Before Xie Yumu followed her, he turned back and said, ” sister qu, you must come tomorrow. I’ll wait for you. I won’t leave until I see you.

Qu Huaian waved at him, his eyes involuntarily looking at the back of the gradually disappearing figure, lost in thought.

After not seeing him for a long time, he seemed to have become more dignified.

Not long after, her manager came to find her. Because of her speech, the internet was in an uproar for the whole day. Some people said that she was crazy and that celebrities should do business and cooperate with the publicity. They should do what they were at. Some people said that being a celebrity was just a job. It was normal to not want to face the camera outside of work and that they should respect other people’s choices.

The manager had already lost her temper and let the fans and netizens quarrel however they wanted. She was here to inform qu Huaian that there would be a celebration party after the award ceremony, and she had to attend it.

Many people were invited to the celebration party. Apart from the director and producer, there were also investors.

When qu Huaian saw Xie tingxi, who was surrounded by people, his heart skipped a beat.

She was so focused on filming that she didn’t know that Xie tingxi was one of the investors behind the movie.

Why would he be willing to invest in her show?

Seeing her in a daze, the manager pinched her arm and said in a low voice, ” why are you still standing there? let’s toast to President Xie.

Although he didn’t want to play the investor’s game, he still needed to know how to get along with people at the table.

Before qu Huaian could react, he was pushed up by his manager. He held his glass of wine and looked at the handsome and Noble man opposite him. He said in an unnatural tone, ” “T-President Xie, let me give you a toast,”

The man lifted his eyelids lazily and glanced at her. He picked up the glass and drank it in one go.

Qu Huaian also finished his glass in one gulp. Just as he put down his glass, he heard the man’s gentle voice. I haven’t congratulated miss qu yet. You won the Best Newcomer Award tonight. Your future is boundless.

She had thought that he was willing to drink this glass of wine out of gentlemanly manners and did not want to embarrass her in front of everyone. She did not expect that he would actually congratulate her.

He just didn’t know how much of this congratulatory message was sincere and how much of it was fake.

Xie tingxi finished his drink in one gulp.

Qu Huaian naturally followed him and gulped down another cup of yellow soup.

Everyone present was smart. Seeing Xie tingxi praise a newcomer so much, they naturally followed him to toast and congratulate him.

Her manager helped her block some of the alcohol, but qu Huaian still drank quite a bit. After the celebration party ended, he was almost drunk.
