The Vicious Supporting Female Character And The White Lotus Female Lead

Since Fu Xing Hua couldn't enter the set to act with Nie Zhen'er, he took a different approach. From the day Nie Zhen'er entered the set, he would visit the set from time to time.

    Making it so other people in the set who didn't know the truth thought Fu Xing Hua and Nie Zhen'er were a couple.

    Whenever Nie Zhen'er tried to explain it to them, they only said with a look, “I understand,” "I know, I know, you have to keep the news of your relationship secret, right? We aren’t not people with big mouths."

    Then, the next day, a big Weibo blogger leaked that Nie Zhen'er was suspected of being in a relationship with a popular male actor, Fu Xing Hua, along with several photos of Nie Zhen'er and Fu Xing Hua standing together.

    When Fu Xing Hua's manager saw it, he immediately bought a hot search and sent this post to the top three trending.

    Fu Xing Hua's manager didn’t discuss this with Fu Xing Hua. He only wanted to bind Nie Zhen'er and Fu Xing Hua together to create hype to raise Fu Xing Hua's publicity. How did he know that Fu Xing Hua didn't care about these things?

    Fu Xing Hua was taking a bath when he saw Nie Zhen'er’s favorability plummet like a turbo drop ride. By the time the panel refreshed, it dropped from minus twenty to minus fifty. Fu Xing Hua was shocked that he didn’t even bother about washing away the foam from his body and immediately went outside to check his phone.

    It was impossible for Nie Zhen'er to lower her favorability for no reason, it had to be because something happened.

    Fu Xing Hua opened Weibo and looked at the hot searches. He immediately knew that this was the work of his manager.

    With a stony face, he called the manager. After the call connected, he said, "The hot search on Weibo was your doing."

    Fu Xing Hua wasn’t asking but was certain of it.

    The manager didn’t notice his displeasure at all and laughed, “How about it? Isn’t this CP great? Your Weibo fans have increased by hundreds of thousands in just half a day. It also happens that you like Nie Zhen’er, maybe this time the hype will come true."

    The more Fu Xing Hua listened to him, the angrier he got. He shouted lividly, "Will come true huh! Bullsh*t! Nie Zhen'er will never like me and it's all because of your handiwork!!!" Once done speaking, he smashed the phone to the ground and hung his head, panting for breath. It took him a while before he slumped to the sofa and lay down, covering his face.

    Fu Xing Hua has just received the notification that because Nie Zhen'er's favorability has fallen lower than negative fifty, the mission was cleared from the panel, which means he completely failed the mission.

    When Nie Zhen’er’s manager, Lu Ren Yuan, discovered someone had deliberately bought a hot search, he told Nie Zhen’er about the matter. Then he immediately posted: Our same company artists, Nie Zhen’er and Fu Xing Hua, once collaborated on 《Tao Zhi Yao Yao》 . Right now, they are only friends. Zhen'er is still single, not in any relationship. As for the person spreading the rumors, please watch yourself.

    From this day on, the set forbids people visiting and actors were also forbidden from bringing their phones into the studio.

    The movie was filmed for an entire hundred days, which is also a hundred days without a mobile phone. Many actors cried on the day when the shooting was finished.

    After the film was finished, Xu Jia Shu's work wasn’t over yet. He has to edit the film as soon as possible and send it to display it on the major film exhibitions.

    Luan Qing Xiao and Nie Zhen'er each devoted themselves to their respective work.

    Only until the film won the award did the two meet at work and appear together in the awards banquet.

    Luan Qing Xiao and Nie Zhen'er were seated next to each other. After they had greeted the surrounding actors, they leaned together and talked.

    "Qing Xiao, do you think we’ll be able to win any award?" Nie Zhen'er asked, holding Luan Qing Xiao's hand.

    The two of them decided to reveal their relationship after the movie won/ the award. If this time it didn’t win an award at the film festival, they would have to wait for the next film festival.

    Luan Qing Xiao was much more confident, "We’ll definitely win the awards. What you should think about now is how to confess to me on stage."

    Nie Zhen'er responded, "I confess to you everyday, there’s no need to think about it at all."

    "Then I can’t wait."

    The awards for Best Director, Best Actor and Actress will only be announced at the end of the awards ceremony. After sitting for half an hour, Nie Zhen'er's figure finally appeared on the big screen. It was her outfit from the movie.

    "The actresses nominated for the Best Actress are Xie Mei Pan, Guang Zi Die, An Fu, Geng Han Ting and Nie Zhen'er. But, who is the winner of the Best Actress? Let us invite Director Zhu Qing Fu to come on stage to announce the winner of the Best Actress Award, and at the same time, please welcome Yu He Shao to present the award to our Best Actress."

    Yu He Shao and Zhu Qing Fu came on stage. The two stood in front of the microphone.

    Zhu Qing Fu joked, “Having me come up to present the award explains one thing,"

    Yu He Shao curiously asked, "What does it explain?"

    "It means I didn't win any award."

    “Tsk! Stop telling the truth, then I didn't win any awards either."

    The actor sitting in the audience couldn't help laughing.

    After Yu He Shao and Zhu Qing humored the audience for a while, their expressions straightened as Zhu Qing Fu proclaimed, "Where is tonight’s best actress at? She is — —"

    Zhu Qing Fu opened up the envelope and announced with cadence, "She is — — Nie Zhen'er!"

    Nie Zhen'er showed a surprised expression, covering her face in disbelief.

    She stood up and first hugged Luan Qing Xiao next to her. As she made her way to the stage, she shook hands with all passing actors along the way.

    Tonight, Nie Zhen'er wore a very simple white one-shoulder dress. The lotus leaf lining made her face more exquisite and moving. She carefully stepped onto the stage with crystal high heels, while Zhu Qing Fu and Yu He Shao hurried to help her.

    The three of them walked to the center of the stage together and a man courteously brought the trophy up. Yu He Shao took the trophy and Zhu Qing Fu exclaimed, “Will Teacher Yu He Shao, please present the award to Nie Zhen'er?”

    Yu He Shao and Nie Zhen'er stood opposite of one another. Yu He Shao placed the trophy cup in front of Nie Zhen'er with both hands, which Nie Zhen'er accepted carefully. When she held the trophy and faced the audience, a resplendent smile spread across her face.

    Zhu Qing Fu was affected by her smile and couldn't resist laughing along, "Teacher Yu He Shao and I are quite fated with Zhen'er. Everyone should have seen [The Path of an Actor], Zhen’er is the champion of [The Path of an Actor]. From the very beginning, she showed off her acting talent and crushed her way through all the challenges in front of her. I didn’t expect that we would meet at the awards ceremony this soon. Sure enough, she’s someone to watch out for ah."

    Yu He Shao continued "Zhen'er’s Best Actress is well-deserved. Is there anything you want to say to everyone now?"

    Nie Zhen'er walked to the microphone and took the microphone off the stand, "First of all, I am very grateful to Teacher Yu and Director Zhu for presenting me the award. Me winning the Best Actress is indispensable from Director Xu Jia Shu’s nurturing as well as the hard work of all the crew’s actors and staff behind the scenes. I truly appreciate you all."

    Nie Zhen'er took a deep breath and slowly stated, "Just now Teacher Yu said my Best Actress was well-deserved. However, to me, this trophy was not only gained through my own efforts. Without everyone’s support, I couldn't have performed so well.

    Therefore, this trophy is well-deserved for all the members of the set and me. "

    "This is not my trophy, but ours." Nie Zhen'er raised the trophy with one hand, causing warm applause from the audience.

    "I also want to thank someone individually," Nie Zhen'er paused after finishing speaking, gazing in the direction of Luan Qing Xiao, who was in the audience.

    "In《Tao Zhi Yao Yao》, we were lovers. In [The Path of an Actor], we were mentors and students. Then in 《Secrets》 (the award-winning film), we played as lovers again… …"

    "Luan Qing Xiao!"

    Someone in the audience called Luan Qing Xiao's name.

    Nie Zhen'er smiled slightly. Her eyes wafting with moving waves, "We are rather fated. From the first work I participated in, we’ve been cooperating and she has helped me a lot. But my feelings for her aren’t just thankful— — Qing Xiao, I love you, can you marry me?"

    After proposing, Nie Zhen'er fluttered her eyes playfully.

    An uproar arose in the audience, followed by even more enthusiastic applause. Everyone was smiling at them and sincere blessings in those smiles.

    The picture on the big screen was cut to Luan Qing Xiao's position. A staff member handed a microphone to Luan Qing Xiao. Luan Qing Xiao stood up and accepted the microphone.

    At this moment, her usual aloof face was full of smiles. When looking at Nie Zhen’er, she was brimming with love, "I love you too."
