Chu Xi's blood rushed to her brain, making her mind go blank for a moment. Her stiff body stood on the steps, staring at her own dark face on the big screen. The surrounding sounds seemed to disappear. She felt like a clown bound in place, awkward and nowhere to hide.
"How could this be?"
Not far away, Fu Ya, who was equally dressed up and ready to steal the limelight tonight, was also frozen in her expression, fearfully clutching her agent's sleeve, her palms drenched with cold sweat.
"Which award ceremony would come up with such a ridiculous award? This is an outrageous slap in the face, isn't it? And tonight, from start to finish, nothing has gone as promised. 'Sunny Summer' hasn't won a single award. All the decent awards have been taken by 'Little Luck'. The promised Best Actress award isn't mine either. What's going on here?"
Though she didn't get it, neither did Jian Yao.
Tonight's disgrace was probably shared by Jian Yao and her alike.
